    For years I wanted a flower garden.I'd spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would
    look nice together.
    But then we had Matthew.And Marvin.And the twins,Alisa and Alan.And then Helen.Five children.I
    was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
    Money was tight,as well as time.Often when my children were little,one of them would want something
    that cost too much, and I'd have to say,"Do you see a money tree outside?Money doesn't grow on trees,
    you know."
    Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own.I started thinking again
    about having a garden.
    I wasn't sure,though.I mean,gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a
    pretty lean,nofrillsbudget.
    Then, one spring morning, on Mother's Day, I was working in my kitchen.Suddenly,I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by.I looked out of the window and there was a new tree,planted
    right in my yard.I thought it must be a weeping willow,because I saw things blowing around on all its
    branches.Then I put my glasses on-and I couldn't believe what I saw.There was a money tree in my yard!
    I went outside to look.It was true!There were dollar bills,one hundred of them,taped all over that tree.
    Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached:"IOU
    eight hours of digging time.Love,Marvin."
    Marvin kept his promise,too.He dug up a nice tenbyfifteen foot bed for me.And my other children
    bought me tools, ornaments, a trellis(棚架),a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.
    That was three years ago.My garden's now very pretty, just like I wanted.When I go out and weed or
    tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they are right there
    with me.
    I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula,where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short.
    But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out of my window and think of the flowers. I'll see next
    spring in my little garden.I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes-every time.
    I'm still not sure that money grows on trees.But I know love does!
    1.By saying "Do you see a money tree outside…"the mother actually means "________".
    A. Observation is the best teacher
    B. Seeing is believing
    C. The outsider sees the most of the game
    D. It is not easy to gain money
    2.The best title for the passage would probably be________.
    A. My flower garden
    B. Marvin helps to realize my dream
    C. Love in Michigan
    D. Money grows on trees
    3.The underlined word "nofrills"in the fifth paragraph is similar in meaning to________.
    A. wasteful
    B. tight
    C. absurd
    D. helpful
    4.From the passage we can infer that the mother is________.
    A. divorced when she was young
    B. not caring for her kids any longer
    C. alone but not at all lonely
    D. prouder with her garden than with her kids

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。
