1、保持良好的精神状态。良好的精神状态对于考场上的考生来说非常重要。因为只有在心理放松的情况下，考生的精力才能够集中，思维才会敏捷，从而才能将自己的真实水平发挥出来。

2、抓住中心句。阅读短文之前，先看短文是否有标题。若有，应给予高度重视。因为标题是文章主题的高度凝聚，它能给我们启发和想象，有利于加深对短文的理解，从而提高做题效率。另外，在没有标题的情况下，应充分重视短文的首、尾句。因为大多数文章都是按照“总---分---总”的结构布局的。据统计，英语中有60%-90%的主题句位于段首和段尾，短文的其他文字往往是对这些中心句的解释和说明。

3、克服不良习惯，提高阅读速度。由于考试的时间有限，在保证不出偏差的前提下，一定要尽可能地提高阅读速度。倘若能注意克服以下不良习惯，就可以大大提高阅读速度：①心读。考场上不能出声阅读，于是有的考生就在心里读，有时考生的嘴唇也在动。这是非常不好的习惯，一定要下决心克服。因为这样做会直接制约着阅读速度的提高；②回视（指重新阅读上文）。阅读中的回视是一种无效劳动，所以应一口气把文章读完，尽量不要回视。这坏习惯是慢慢形成的，不是一朝一夕就能克服掉的。在平时的学习中就应当引起注意并加以克服；③一个词一个词地看。阅读时，视线应从左向右跳跃式移动，着重扫描意群，同时注意意群中的重要单词，以寻求主要的语言信息。可将冠词、系动词、助动词及不定式符号等小品词一扫而过，不可一词不漏地全部都看一遍；④只读不记。正确的做法是：一边阅读一边用笔记下或标出那些与文后所设问题有关的信息。这样，在做题时就用不着重新查阅短文，至少不用一句一句地再寻找那些隐约有印象的信息，从而可以节省一些时间。

4、判断要有依据，推理要顺乎作者的意图。对于推理性或评价性之类的阅读理解题目，在材料中一般是找不到现成答案的，必须通读全篇，对所获信息加以筛选、提炼、推断，对作者的思想倾向，对文中提及的人物或事件可能产生的结局等，加以综合考虑才能得出正确结论。对这种题，不能以偏概全，不能“只见树木，不见森林”，不能以个人的想法代替作者的意图。

Linda and David have travelled by airfromLondon to Sydney, Australia. Linda has promised(答应)her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely. This is something she had done ever since she was a child. David thinks it is not a good idea to ring so far, to spendtoo much, and to say so little. "If there were an accident. " He says, 'they'd know soon enough. Bad news travels fast. " But Linda has promised that she would ring. "However," she says, "'it doesn't cost much when you just think that it's the other side of the world. It's only six pence per second (每秒六便士)。" "If you're on that telephone for less than one minute, I'll eat my hat,' David says, "And one minute's nearly four pounds(英镑). " "That's no more than you'd pay for a new hat," ''Linda answers. She has asked the man at the hotel (旅馆) desk to get her the number. The telephone rings. Linda picks it up. "Hello, Mum. Is that you ?" She says.

"Six pence per second," David reminds(提醒) her. "Hello, love. " It is Mrs Lee, Linda's mother, speakingfromLondon. "I can hear you very clearly just like you are in the next room. It's a better line than when you called mefromyour office. Do you remember? I shouted at that time, and still you couldn't hear me sometimes. " "Yes, Mum. "Linda puts in. . "I just wanted to ring to ……. "

"I remember how you rang when you went to Betty's house to eat, when you were a little girl. And then when you …" Mrs Lee is a great talker "Nearly four pounds. " says David. Linda tries to tell her mother that it is time to say goodbye. "Yes, all right,"says Mrs Lee," But you will write, won't you, as you did when you were at work …" Once again, Mrs Lee talks about the pass. and there is no stopping her. "Four pounds fifty, 'says David. At last, Linda cuts her mother short, promises to write, and rings off. "There! That wasn't long, was it ?"

" Four pounds, ninety pence. " David answers. " And you didn't even say that we've arrived. "

1. Linda is telephoning home to ________.

A. tell her mother some bad news B. say that she and David have arrived safely

1、先读题时只能是读其问题或题干，而不能读问题后的选项，否则不仅浪费时间，而且也无法记住众多答案所表达的众多信息。

2、在读了题之后，要把这些问题记在心里，并带着这些问题去阅读短文，关于这一点考生是要经过反复的训练才能形成能力的，因为短文后的这些问题本身所表达的信息并不象短文那样有情节，也不象短文那样连贯，所以有不少同学在开始试用这种方法时，往往先读了题之后（尤其是当问题较多时）再读短文时，又忘记是什么问题了。

3、带着问题读短文时，对短文中出现的那些与问题有关的词句，你可以用一支铅笔在短文中作些记号，以便为下一步选择作好准备，但也要注意不要每读到一个与问题有关的信息点就停下来去对照后面的问题，因为这样转来转去要耽误一些时间，另一方面有些问题往往要通过对短文的全面了解才能作出结论，而不能仅仅从一、二个信息点作出判断。

4、带着问题读完短文之后，接着便是选择理解题的答案。虽然你是带着问题去阅读短文的，但也并不是说你在阅读时带去的问题全部得到了答案，也可能有些还没有把握（尤其是一些主观理解题），这时你同样要带着这些“疑题”去跳读短文。

A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a street urchin was walking around the shining car."Is this your car，Paul?"he asked.

Paul answered，"Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas."The boy was surprised."You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn't cost you nothing?Boy，I wish…"He hesitated.

Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for.He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.

"I wish,"the boy went on，"that I could be a brother like that."Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"

"Oh yes，I'd love that."

After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining，said，"Paul，would you mind driving in front of my house?"

Paul smiled a little.He thought he knew what the boy wanted.He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked.

He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.

"There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about."

Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

Dreams

"Dreams (梦 ) may be more important than sleep. We all need to dream," some sci-entists say.

Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams are like short films. They are usually in colour. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.

Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may have been thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over into dreams.

Sometimes we wake up with a good feel-ing from a dream. But often we can't re-member the dream. Dreams can disappear (消失) quickly from memory (记忆).

Too much dreaming can be harmful (有害的). The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is hard at work when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.

阅读理解对初三初四学生来讲是一种较高水平的能力要求，是一项难度较高的测试题。无论是在我们日常英语学习和复习考试中阅读都是不可忽视的一项主要内容，然而阅读能力的培养和水平的提高也绝不是一日之功，必须明确要求，掌握方法，打好基础，不断总结，阅读水平才能不断提高。

考试中阅读理解主要题型

英语阅读理解题主要是考查考生综合运用所学语言知识的能力，包括阅读能力、理解能力、归纳概括能力、逻辑推理能力以及对材料的评估能力等。试题中所选的阅读文章题材多样化，涉及政治经济、社会文化、风俗习惯、历史地理、科学技术等各个方面。体裁多样化，包括记叙文、说明文、议论文、应用文以及新闻报道、广告、通知、操作说明、表格等各种文体。它要求考生阅读理解准确率高、阅读速度快。大致来说，主要针对如下方面：1．文章的个别词或句子；2．文章的某细节或情节；3．文章的主题；4．文章的背景知识；5．文章的结论或结局；6．文章内涵的隐义或寓意等。主要是考查考生综合运用所学语言知识的能力，包括阅读能力、理解能力、归纳概括能力、逻辑推理能力以及对材料的评估能力等。

具体来讲主要有以下几种题型：

（一）、直接理解性题目

这种题目比较简单，只要通读全文，了解文中所叙述的重要事实或细节，就可以解答出来，有的甚至可以从文章的原句中直接找到答案。

（二）、语义理解性题目

题目要求对文中个别难词、关键词、词组或句子作出解释。解答这类题目时需要对有关的上下文，甚至整篇文章的内容建立准确、立体的理解才能做出正确答案。

（三）、逻辑推理性题目

这种题目有一定难度，往往不能直接从文中找到答案，而必须根据上下文及其相互间的关系或对整篇文章进行深层理解后，才能找到答案。有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态度等弦外之音、文外之意加以推理，才能获得正确答案。

（四）、归纳概括性题目

要求在阅读和理解全文的基础上对文章作出归纳、概括或评价。解这种题目时，不能只凭文中的只言片语而断章取义，比如涉及文章的标题（title）、主题（main idea）、结论（conclusion）、结局（end）等有关问题，都需要在细读全文的基础上，结合所学语言知识、背景知识、生活常识、科学专业知识进行逻辑思维、推理、判断，从而获取文章中内隐的信息。

阅读题目的命制原则

1．考查学生在阅读中准确捕获信息的能力。这就要求通过阅读短文，运用自己所学的语法、词组、短语等方面的语言知识，根据自己的理解，掌握所读材料的主旨和大意，以及用以说明主旨和大意的事实和情节，能回答短文后面所给的问题。

2．要求学生既理解具体的事实，也理解抽象的概念；既理解文章的表层意思，也理解文章的深层含义，包括作者的态度、意图等弦外之音。

3．要求学生既理解某句、某段的意义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并据此进行推理和判断。

4．要求学生既能根据材料提供的信息去理解，也能结合自己应有的常识去理解。

阅读题解题基本步骤

1．初读全文

（1）该题属于语篇理解题型。一般宜先通读短文全文，初步了解短文整体框架、大意及作者意向，并在抓住主要信息及各段中心内容的同时，标出有疑问或重要的地方。（2）也可以先扫读文章后的理解题目，明确要求，便于快速阅读全文时留意或抓住重要材料及关键词语。

2．再读全文

目的是加深对整体的把握及对文章主旨各段中心内容的理解，进一步思考并初步弄清或解决第一遍阅读时发现的疑问。

3．细读试答

在认真研读题目（题干和选项）、明确答题要求的基础上，再细读短文有关部分以便决定答案。这一步至关重要，既要细致，又要在整体把握的层面上上下照应、前后联系。一般说来，试题的先后次序与短文所述内容的次序是一致的，因而答题应按试题的次序逐个去做。答题原则应是先易后难，留下难题个别对待。

4．复读核查

试答完各题之后，再读一遍短文，瞻前顾后地逐一核对答案。在这一步，应充分利用和注意各题间的相互关联或对应，要着力抓住其中统带整篇的关键题目。关键题目正确与否会引起连锁反应。因此，切莫忽视这一点。

阅读理解的解题技巧

1．审视标题，抓住中心

试题中有的文章有标题，有的没有，拟题人是有所考虑的，画龙点睛，龙就活了。标题是文章主题的高度凝聚。它能给我们启发和想象，想象文章的内容和走向。这样做有利于对文章的理解，能提高做题的效率。

2．浏览全文，掌握全貌

如果时间紧，至少要快速通读全文，尤其是首两段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来，这样全文的梗概便一目了然了。

3．细读题目，抓住要点

细读文后的题目的目的在于审视这些题目是针对什么提出的。若文章短可先读短文，后看文后题目；若文章长，为了能迅速抓住要点，可以颠倒过来，先浏览题目，然后再读文章，这样就可以带着问题去读文章，能加深对要点的理解。

4．细读文章，掌握细节

这次应细品，不可一晃而过。可边读边用铅笔做些标记，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因（即五个W：who, what, when, where, why）划出来。 经过这样的处理，你对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更加深入的了解。

5．理解大意，初选答案

一般短文都设有五个题目，对那些表层理解的题目可以断然选定。对那些深层理解的题目，应再查阅原文，但决不是简单重读，应找出依据，把所选答案代入文中，再确定正误。在选择答案时，对文章和选择题中的词语应结合上下文思考其确切意思，切忌望文生义，作出错误的判断。

6．复读全文，核对答案

要用全文的主题思想统率各思考题，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核那些未获解答的题，对照题目，推测判断，确保理解无误。

7．瞻前顾后，首尾突破

对一具体问题不要局限于一词一事，而应从短文整体考虑，从主线向外扩展，打开思路，前后上下对照。这样，可减少钻牛角尖和繁琐分析。而且，在中考试题中，即使是事实和细节题，也是围绕或用以说明主旨和大意的。大多数短文，尤其是新闻报道或议论文的第一段，或每段的第一句，常包含了全文的主要信息或基本观点；而结尾部分常是结局或结论。寓言或幽默文字的结尾也往往是点晴之笔或值得玩味之处。因此，抓住首尾往往抓住了主要矛盾，主要矛盾解决了，次要矛盾也就迎刃而解了。

做阅读理解题时应注意的问题

1．忌不带问题。做阅读理解题时，应先把文章后面所给的考查题浏览一遍，然后带着这些问题进行阅读。边阅读边选出考查表层情况问题的答案，从而提高阅读效果。

2．忌草率行事。在设计理解题时，设计者往往在四个选项中设计出一个似是而非的答案。这样答案干扰性特别强，容易迷惑考生。如果在发现一个看似正确答案时就草率定案，往往会掉进设计者设置的陷阱里。处理的方法是：对所给四个备选答案进行分析比较，在理解阅读材料内容的基础上进行去伪存真，方可选出正确答案。

3．忌主观印象。少数阅读不明确题只需根据生活常识就可选出答案，而绝大多数则不然，考生必须按照原文来选定答案。因此，考生在做后一种测试题时，一定要排除自身的生活经验、经历和已有的知识等主观因素的干扰，按照文章实际反映的情况来选择答案。

4．忌囫囵定案。所谓囫囵定案是指考生在未完全读懂文章时就匆忙定案，结果往往选错答案。因此，尚未读懂的地方如果时间允许的话，一定要慢速多读几遍，直到读懂时再定答案。

5．忌忽略时间。做阅读理解题时，一定要从整体上控制时间，时间分配根据文章的难易程度有别。文中一两处没弄懂的地方可以暂且放置一边，等把全部题做完后，再回头来处理。因为做完题后，你的心情相对放松了往往会产生新的思路、新的灵感。即使做完题后时间所剩无几了，你再把未处理的题猜测一下也不晚，因为你仍然有选对的可能性。总而言之，阅读理解靠的是扎实的语言基础。俗话说：冰冻三尺，非一日之寒。扎实的语言基础来自平时严格的基本功训练和长期的知识积累。只要平时刻苦用功，打下扎实的英语知识基础，又掌握了较科学的解题方法做阅读理解题是不会太难的。我们学习英语不只是和别人交流，更重要的是，要通过阅读报刊书籍，研读名著，了解风土人情，生活习惯，科学技术的发展与进步等等。读文章必须理解，怎样才能验证初学者是否掌握了所阅读的文章呢？一般有回答根据短文内容所提的问题，有给出题干，留一个空，再给几个答案，让答题的人根据短文内容来确定正确的答案；也有在题干上留一个空，由答题人直接填写所缺的单词（有些难度比较大的题，则将要填写的词的首字母给出）。无论是哪一种题型，要想解这一类题，必须建立在理解文章内容的基础上，否则就是一句空话。

A Different Roast Every Day

Alan worked in an office in the city. He worked very hard and really wanted to take a holiday.

He usually went to the seaside, but one day he saw an ad(广告) in a newspaper. " Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at Willow Farm. Good food, fresh air, horse riding, walking, fishing. Good prices (价格)."

"This sounds like a good idea," he thought. "I'll spend a month at Willow Farm. I'll enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside."

Four days later he returned home.

"What's wrong with Willow Farm?" his friend Jack asked him. " Didn't you enjoy country life?"

"Country life was fine," Alan said, "but there was another problem."

"Oh, what?"

"Well, the first day I was there a sheep died, and we had roast mutton (烤羊肉) for dinner."

"Fresh meat is the best."

"I know, but on the second day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner."

"Lucky you!"

"You don't understand," Alan said. "On the third day a pig died and we had roast pork for dinner."

"A different roast every day," Jack said.

Americans with small families own a small car or a large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van （住房汽车）。

A small car can hold （容纳） four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded（拥挤）。 A van hold seven persons easily, so a family with three children could ask their grandparents to go on a holiday travel. They could all travel together.

Mr Hagen and his wife had a third child last year. This made them sell a second car and bought a van. The sixth and seventh seat are used to put other things, for a family of five must carry many suitcases（衣箱） when they travel. When they arrive at their grandparents' home, the suitcases are brought into the home and the two seats can then carry the grandparents.

Americans call vans motor homes. A motor home is always used for holidays. When a family are traveling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days or weeks. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happier life when they are traveling together. That is why motor homes have become very popular. In America there are many parks for motor homes.
