    It was about 11:15 pm on the passenger ship California. The night was freezing cold and the water was
    filled with ice from the North Pole, making it difficult for the ship to sail on.
    In the radio room, operator Cyril Evans listened to the radio-talk between a nearby passenger ship and
    the telegraph station on the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Evans interrupted it and said, "We're stopped
    and surrounded by ice. Be careful as you pass through these waters." The radio operator on the nearby ship
    replied, "I'm too busy to talk now. I have many messages to send to the telegraph station." Twenty minutes
    later, as he turned off his radio and went to bed, Evans could still hear the ship sending its passengers'
    telegrams.
    Earlier in the evening the California's captain, Stanley Lord, had seen another ship approaching. It looked
    about the size of his own, but attempts to contact the ship failed. It lay dark and mysterious about 10 miles
    away. At 12:40 am there appeared a sudden flash of light just over the mystery ship. Captain Lord, thinking
    the ship might need help, ordered his officers to signal the ship by lamp. There was no reply. Three more
    rockets then exploded, none appeared to go higher than halfway up the mast of the mystery ship. Then at
    about 2:00 am it turned and slipped into the darkness.
    In the light of the dawn there was no mystery ship, but 20 miles away was the scene of a great disaster.
    Unfortunately, the mystery ship had stopped directly in front of the California, preventing people on board
    from seeing clearly. If this ship had not been there, Captain Lord would have recognized that the rockets
    were SOS rockets that came not from the mystery ship but from a more distant ship which the California
    could not see. If Cyril Evans had kept his radio on for just 30 minutes more he would have heard SOS signals
    coming from that distant ship he spoke with the night before. That ship was the Titanic which was sinking
    fast, leaving 1 500 0f its passengers dead. It was April 14,1912.
    1. From whose point of view is the story told?
    A. People on the Titanic.
    B. People on the California.
    C. People at the telegraph station.
    D. People on Newfoundland.
    2. Why were the rockets really fired?
    A. To celebrate the journey.
    B. To signal for help.
    C. To contact the Titanic.
    D. To warn other ships.
    3. What is the main function of the last paragraph of this passage?
    A. It shows how unlucky the Titanic was.
    B. It describes how the Titanic sank.
    C. It indicates that the people on the California were careless.
    D. It lists how many people died in the disaster.
    4. How many ships are mentioned in the passage?
    A. One.
    B. Two.
    C. Three.
    D. Four.
    5. From the passage we know that _____.
    A. the rockets were fired from the mystery ship
    B. Cyril Evans went to bed earlier than usual that night
    C. the Titanic started sinking at dawn the next day

  • 历史文化类阅读

什么是历史文化类阅读:

本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议,所以要把握其议才是主要方面。阅读这类文章,先弄清其引入的话题,再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法,然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。


历史文化类阅读技巧:

题型说明】历史文化类阅读理解文章属高考常选材料之一。这类文章常涉及历史、文化、法制、宗教等方面的文学艺术、发明创造、文化遗产保护、宗教与文化、风俗与习惯、道德与法制、中外文学名著节选、等等。这类材料的命题点往往落在主旨大意题、事实细节题上。
答题方法】在做这类阅读理解题时,我们应注意以下几个方面:
1、采用先题后文:先读题目,再带着问题读文章。这类阅读理解文章相对来说事实细节题稍多一点,如果带着问题读文章,有利于我们抓细节。
2、先做细节题。因为做完了局部性的事实细节题后,自然会加深我们对文章的理解,这样更有利于做主旨大意题。
3、重点敲定主旨题。主旨大意题提问的形式主要有两大类:一类是Main idea型;一类是Topic或Title型。
在解答这类试题时应注意以下几点:
a.读首句抓大意。
文化教育类阅读理解文章多采用说明文、议论文体裁,而这类文章大都采用文章段落的中心,即主题句在文章开头。因此,要寻找这类文章的主旨大意就需要研究文章的首句。
b.读尾句抓大意。
有时这类文章的主题句安排在文章的结尾,作为对全篇的总结。
c.读首段抓大意。
有些文章或段落的开头和结尾部分都有主题句。这种结构是为了突出主题思想而使用两次点题的写作方法。这两个主题句在句子结构和用词上有所不同,而且在内容上前句和后句也不重复。
d.从段落中抓大意。
有些文章或段落的主题句在文章中,这种文章或段落往往以一句话或几句话引出要表达的主题,在主题句出现后,再举例子陈述细节或继续论证。
e.归纳要点抓大意。
有些文章或段落无明显的主题句,只是暗示性地体现主题。这就要求同学们在阅读过程中根据文中所叙述的事实或线索来概括总结主旨大意。
