    November not only marks the publication of Toni Morrison's eagerly anticipated (期待) eighth novel,
    Love, but it is also the tenth anniversary of her Nobel Prize for Literature. Morrison is the first black
    woman to receive a Nobel, and so honored before her in literature are only two black men: Wole Soyinka,
    the Nigerian playwright, poet and novelist, in 1986; and Derek Walcott, the Caribbean-born poet, in 1992.
    But Morrison is also the first and only American-born Nobel prizewinner for literature since 1962, the year
    novelist John steinbeck received the award.
    Like Song of Solomon, Love is a multigenerational story, revealing the personal and communal legacy
    of an outstanding black family. As Morrison scholars will tell you, Love is the third volume of a literary
    master's trilogy (三部曲) investigating the many complexities of love. This trilogy began with Beloved
    (1988), which deals with a black mother's love under slavery and in freedom. Jazzy (1993), the second
    volume, tells a story of romantic love in 1920s Harlem. This latest novel looks back from the 1970s to the
    1940s and 50s.
    The emotional center of Love is Bill Cosey, the former owner and host of the shabby Cosey's Hotel and
    Resort in Silk, North Carolina, described in the novel as "the best and best-known vacation sport for colored
    folk on the East Coast." We get to know Cosey through the memories of five women who survive and love
    him: his granddaughter, his widow, two former employees, and a homeless young girl.
    The latest novel, Love, had been described in the promotional material from her publisher as "Morrison's
    most accessible work since Song of Solomon." This comparison to her third novel, published in 1977, was
    an effective selling point.
    1. What would be the best title for the text?
    A. Toni Morrison's latest novels
    B. Toni Morrison and her trilogy
    C. Toni Morrison and her novel Love
    D. Toni Morrison, the Nobel prizewinner
    2. What can we learn about John Steinbeck?
    A. He was a black writer.
    B. He was born in America.
    C. He received the Nobel Prize after Morrison
    D. He was the first American novelist to win a Nobel
    3. The similarity between Love and Song of Solomon is that they both _____.
    A. belong to the same trilogy together with Beloved
    B. concern families of more than one generation
    C. deal with life of blacks under slavery
    D. investigate life in 1920s Harlem
    4. The novel Love mainly describes ______.
    A. the best-known vacation spot for blacks
    B. the life of an outstanding black family under slavery

本试题 “阅读理解。November not only marks the publication of Toni Morrison's eagerly anticipated (期待) eighth novel,Love, but it is also the tenth anniver...” 主要考查您对

故事类阅读

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 故事类阅读

故事类阅读概念:

这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局,有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手,考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。


故事类阅读应试技巧:

1、抓住文章的6个要素:
阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后顺序。因此,无论是顺叙还是倒叙,阅读此类文章时,必须要找到它结构中的5个W(when, where, who, why, what)和1个H(how),不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问,寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。
2、注意作者的议论和抒情:
高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达,因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换,也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题,讲完一件事情后,作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线,它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图,属于必考点,所以要仔细体会。
3、结合前两点归纳文章中心,把握作者态度:
故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的,它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时,尤其要分析文章的结尾,因为很多文章卒章显志,用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心;文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关;也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外,叙述一件事必有其目的,或阐明某一观点,或赞美某种品德,或抨击某种陋习,这就要求我们在阅读时,通过对细节(第1点中的六要素)的理解,把握作者的态度。
4、有章有据进行解题判断:
分析文章,归纳主题,属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章,架空分析,一定让分析在文章中有依据。
