【题目】Comments on the July Issue of Reader’s Digest

Jennie Gardner, Bath

I couldn’t agree more with Lee Child, that books are really important. Yes, you can get lost in them but you can also find yourself and new worlds and possibilities in them. Books help us to forget and remember. They remind us both of what's really important and what’s not.

And, as Lee says, they let us hold the whole world in our hands, We can feel the weight of this word, we can mark our favourite spots, add in our own thoughts and see our progress through the pages as the story leads us back home, allowing us to re-find ourselves along the way.

Jayne Wile, North Wales

Brian Blessed’s I Remember was most enjoyable. I love Brian, a popular actor of stage and screen. It was interesting to learn more about his life. I noted how he enjoyed being involved in the Space Program, doing 600 hours training in Moscow and I have to agree with his thought”We need to get out to Mars because the Earth has got to rest.” Mars has always been a source of inspiration for explorers and scientists.

Melanie Lodge, West Yorkshire

I was thrilled to read author Lee Childs If I Ruled The World. I was most impressed that he wanted to make teachers the most respected and highest paid professionals.

I work as a teaching assistant in a primary school and have done so since my youngest daughter began school 12 years ago. Until then I had no idea just how much planning was involved in each lesson and how much patience was required in a class of 30 children! I also agree with Lee that there’s nothing more rewarding than finishing a good book.

1What is Jennie Gardner’s comment mainly about?

A.Books make us get lost.B.Books mean a lot in life.

C.Books help us progress.D.Books bring us possibilities.

2What do we know about Jayne Wile?

【解析】

这是一篇应用文。主要为三位读者对《读者文摘》七月号的评论。

1细节理解题。根据第一段I couldnt agree more with Lee Child, that books are really important. Yes, you can get lost in them but you can also find yourself and new worlds and possibilities in them.(我非常同意Lee Child的观点,书真的很重要。是的,你可以迷失在其中,但你也可以发现自己和新的世界和可能性。)可知Jennie Gardner的评论主要是关于书在生活中意味着很多。故选B

2细节理解题。根据第三段中I noted how he enjoyed being involved in the Space Program, doing 600 hours training in Moscow and I have to agree with his thought:”We need to get out to Mars because the Earth has got to rest.”(我注意到他是多么喜欢参与太空计划,在莫斯科进行600小时的训练,我不得不同意他的想法:“我们需要去火星,因为地球必须休息。”)可知Jayne Wile认为有必要探索火星。故选C

3推理判断题。根据最后一段中I work as a teaching assistant in a primary school and have done so since my youngest daughter began school 12 years ago.(我在一所小学做助教,自从我最小的女儿12年前开始上学以来,我就一直在做助教。)可推知从Melanie Lodge的话中我们可以推断出她更懂得如何教书。故选A

4细节理解题。根据第一段第一句I couldnt agree more with Lee Child, that books are really important.(我非常同意Lee Child的观点,书真的很重要。)以及最后一段最后一句I also agree with Lee that theres nothing more rewarding than finishing a good book.(我也同意李的观点,没有什么比读完一本好书更值得的了。)可知Jennie GardnerMelanie Lodge有相似的观点。故选D

文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持,这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要,同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人往往会要求考生根据不同的要求阅读文章,以获得某些特定的信息,或准确地寻求所需的细节,并对细节进行直接或间接辨认和理解。有一种文章细节理解题是一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合,一一对应,一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题,分数比例较少。解答此类试题时,不必通篇细看原文,而应采取“带着问题找答案”的方法,先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼),然后以此为线索,运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的:段落、语句,仔细品味,对照比较,确定答案。如第二小题,根据第三段中I noted how he enjoyed being involved in the Space Program, doing 600 hours training in Moscow and I have to agree with his thought:”We need to get out to Mars because the Earth has got to rest.”(我注意到他是多么喜欢参与太空计划,在莫斯科进行600小时的训练,我不得不同意他的想法:“我们需要去火星,因为地球必须休息。”)可知Jayne Wile认为有必要探索火星。故选C
