         I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the American society until I was
    injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court. After the
    accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day.
    But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good
    reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was only
    fair that I should pay him.
          But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three
    patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each
    time. The final examination report only contained ten lines, and it cost me $215.
         My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew
    very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited
    to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to fire him. And he made me pay him $770.
         Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Because of my inexperience, I told the insurance the date I was
    leaving America. Knowing that, they played for, time …and I left without getting a cent.
         My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is
    everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality; secondly, foreigners are
    still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its advantages and
    disadvantages.

    1. The author’s roommate offered to help him because ________.

    A. he felt sorry for the author.            
    B. he thought it was a chance to make some money
    C. he knew the doctor was a very good one  
    D. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer

    2. A good lawyer is important for the author to ________.

    A. be properly treated              
    B. talk with the person responsible for the accident
    C. recover before he leaves America
    D. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury

    3. Which is wrong according the the passage?

    A. The author has learned a lot through the experience.
    B. Everything about America is advantageous.
    C. The author's roommate helped him but charged for that.
    D. The author's final examination report only contained ten lines but cost $215.

    4. The word charge in the passage means _____.   

    A. be responsible    
    B. entertain    
    C. ask to pay    
    D. repay

    5. What conclusion can you draw from this story?

    A. Going to court is something very common in America. 
    B. One must be very careful while driving a car.
    C. There are more disadvantages in America than advantages.
    D. Money is more important than other things in the US.

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。
