    A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained he wished to buy a pearl for his
    wife's birthday and the price didn't matter since business had been very good for him that year. After
    examining a nice black one that cost $5000, he paid for it in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left.
    A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality, as she wanted a pair of earrings made,
    "Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl?" said the man. The jeweler regretfully replied,
    "I would say it's exactly impossible to find one exactly like that pearl."
    The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newspapers, offering $ 25,000 for the matching
    pearl. Many people answered the advertisement but nobody had a pearl that was just right.
    Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse. "I don't like to part with it," she said sadly, "I inherited it from my
    mother, and my mother inherited it from hers. But I really need the money."
    The jeweler was quick to pay her before she changed her mind. Then he called the rich man's hotel to
    tell him the good news. The man, however, was nowhere to be found.
    1. The man paid $ 5,000 for the black pearl without bargaining because ______.
    A. he wanted to make the jeweler believe him
    B. his business had been successful
    C. he was anxious to get it
    D. he was very rich
    2. He told the jeweler to get him another pearl that must be ______.
    A. exactly the same size as the black one
    B. exactly as big and nice as the black one
    C. worth no more than $ 25,000
    D. exactly the same quality as the black one
    3. Many people answered the advertisement because they wanted _______.
    A. to see the perfect pearl
    B. to buy some beautiful pearls too
    C. to get in touch with the rich man
    D. to sell their own pearl at a high price
    4. The jeweler couldn't find the man anywhere because ______.
    A. he died suddenly.
    B. He happened to be out
    C. He got $ 20,000 by cheating and had run away with the money.
    D. He wouldn't show up until the jeweler called him a second time.

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。
