1、2013年高考第二輪復(fù)習(xí)英語湖南版題型技法指導(dǎo) 專題六　簡答題 真題試做 (2012·湖南卷) A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery store to the fast food industry. Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago.I wanted to save up

2、 money and buy my own car，so I applied everywhere I could that summer.The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself，this is going to be easy.Within four hours of my first shift(輪班)，I had angry customers who complained how slow I was.I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywher

Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations.I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am.Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees.They chat with us

5、workers and joke around.Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does. From my first job at the restaurant，I learned teamwork and devotion.I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get.I will forever carry the exper

9、英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題的語篇為新聞報(bào)道，主要報(bào)道關(guān)于北磁極移動(dòng)的最新發(fā)現(xiàn)。文章第一段為全文主題段，指出北磁極正朝西伯利亞方向移動(dòng)，下文接著分別介紹北磁極移動(dòng)的原因、移動(dòng)的速度及其影響。 2008年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題為一篇關(guān)于國際冰雕錦標(biāo)賽的說明文。首段提出主題：每年元月，來自世界各地的14支隊(duì)伍前來瑞士參加國際冰雕錦標(biāo)賽。之后分別介紹參賽隊(duì)伍創(chuàng)作冰雕作品的方法與過程、冰雕作品的評(píng)獎(jiǎng)細(xì)則以及參賽隊(duì)伍對(duì)錦標(biāo)賽的體會(huì)等。2009年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題為一篇記敘文，文章首先簡要介紹巧克力棒的發(fā)明者M(jìn)ilton S．Hershey在性格上令人敬畏的一面，而后通過“我爺爺”和Milton S．

10、Hershey之間的一件事來體現(xiàn)Milton S．Hershey在性格上親切和幽默的一面。2010年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題也為一篇記敘文，講述圣誕節(jié)送禮物的故事，文章生動(dòng)有趣，同樣情節(jié)分明，易讀易懂。2011年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題是一篇敘事性的文章，作者介紹自己的親身經(jīng)歷。文章難度不大，考生容易掌握其大意。2012年高考英語湖南卷閱讀答題是一篇記敘文，講述作者在餐廳打工的經(jīng)歷，選材貼近學(xué)生日常生活，難度適中。 二、選材特點(diǎn)： 題材多為考生熟悉的日常話題和最新科技發(fā)現(xiàn)或發(fā)明，易于理解，文章簡短，詞數(shù)260～340不等，易于考生利用7分鐘左右的時(shí)間答好此題。2007年湖南高考閱讀簡答題的

11、語篇共265詞，報(bào)道自然科學(xué)的最新發(fā)現(xiàn)——北磁極的移動(dòng)；2008年閱讀簡答題的語篇共335詞，介紹國際冰雕錦標(biāo)賽；2009年閱讀簡答題的語篇共302詞，敘述了一個(gè)體現(xiàn)Milton S．Hershey在性格上親切和幽默的故事；2010年閱讀簡答題的語篇共300詞，講述感人的圣誕送禮故事；2011年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題語篇共294詞；2012年高考英語湖南卷閱讀簡答題語篇共292詞。六篇選材均符合考生的認(rèn)知特征和評(píng)判取向。 三、設(shè)題特點(diǎn)： 該題型原設(shè)三個(gè)小題，自2010年高考開始改設(shè)四個(gè)小題。該題主要考查考生獲取與處理信息的能力以及用英語進(jìn)行思維和表達(dá)的能力，設(shè)題考查方向有四種，即：詞匯語

12、義題(要求從文中找到一個(gè)與所給生詞意義最近的代換詞，考查考生聯(lián)系上下文理解詞義的能力)；細(xì)節(jié)考查題(針對(duì)文章某個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容提問，要求用不超過所規(guī)定的詞數(shù)回答問題)；主旨大意題(針對(duì)文章主旨提問，一般詢問大意、中心思想及文章標(biāo)題，同樣要求用不超過所規(guī)定的詞數(shù)回答問題)；邏輯推理題(針對(duì)文章內(nèi)容要求考生經(jīng)邏輯推理后，用不超過規(guī)定的詞數(shù)回答問題)。估計(jì)今后幾年湖南卷閱讀簡答題的難度會(huì)保持不變，會(huì)有一個(gè)較為穩(wěn)定的時(shí)期。只要考生自己平時(shí)多進(jìn)行訓(xùn)練，做好該題應(yīng)該不成問題。 解題步驟 一、瀏覽試題，畫出試題關(guān)鍵詞 通過讀題，畫出題目所需信息的關(guān)鍵詞，一可預(yù)測文章內(nèi)容，二便于在閱讀文章時(shí)有的放矢地查讀

13、有效信息，節(jié)省閱讀時(shí)間?？山Y(jié)合四個(gè)小題所涉及的內(nèi)容來預(yù)測文章內(nèi)容，如此帶著預(yù)測，再結(jié)合尋找問題關(guān)鍵詞的目的去閱讀，自然就提高了閱讀效率。 二、帶著問題速讀文章，根據(jù)試題關(guān)鍵詞定位答題信息 在瀏覽試題、預(yù)測文章內(nèi)容的基礎(chǔ)上速讀文章，其主要目的是為了找到答題所需信息，而所需信息肯定與試題關(guān)鍵詞有關(guān)，故可采用略讀閱讀法，即：緊扣關(guān)鍵詞，瀏覽全文，找出信息句。閱讀時(shí)，與關(guān)鍵詞無關(guān)的句子或段落要速讀，而與關(guān)鍵詞相關(guān)處要細(xì)讀，因?yàn)樵囶}關(guān)鍵詞處不僅僅是答題的關(guān)鍵之處，也是揭示全文主題所在。 三、推敲理解信息句，遣詞組句答問題 做好閱讀簡答題此步是關(guān)鍵。因?yàn)槭茉~數(shù)限制，不能全部用原文信息句作答，而要深

14、層次地推敲理解信息句，提煉概括出有針對(duì)性的語句作答。其主要方法有三：一是采用轉(zhuǎn)換詞性，采用代詞、單詞代短語，語句轉(zhuǎn)換，提煉主要信息舍棄次要信息等方法精簡語句；二是用概括性的語句歸納信息句；三是采用文章上下文中的有關(guān)提示語或信息句中的關(guān)鍵詞作答，即：盡量用短文中出現(xiàn)的詞組或短語，句子的用詞也應(yīng)以短文中出現(xiàn)的關(guān)鍵詞為先。若必須要用自己的語言組織表達(dá)時(shí)，則要注意句子結(jié)構(gòu)的精煉、完整和時(shí)態(tài)的正確。 解題技巧 一、詞匯語義題 詞匯語義題目的在于考查考生轉(zhuǎn)述(paraphrase)或解釋(explain)某個(gè)詞或短語在特定場合下的特定含義的能力。其出題方式為：Find in the passage

15、 a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “...”．重點(diǎn)考查動(dòng)詞、名詞、形容詞、副詞等實(shí)詞或動(dòng)詞短語。回答該題時(shí)所用詞必須與問題中的原詞在詞性和詞的形式上均一致，如，要么都是動(dòng)詞，且都為動(dòng)詞過去式或動(dòng)詞現(xiàn)在分詞形式；要么都是名詞，且都用名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式。 解題時(shí)，要找出原詞在文章中的同義詞或近義代換詞，一要注意理解原詞在所在句的邏輯意義，如，解釋什么與什么之間的關(guān)系，修飾什么事物等；二要注意破折號(hào)、同位語從句、定語從句、插入語等具有解釋、說明作用的語言成分，以此推敲猜測原詞的意義，借此幫助尋找文中的代換詞。 例如：2007年湖南高考

16、英語卷第73題：Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “angling”．分析畫線詞所在句“It has drifted across the Canadian Arctic and is now angling toward Siberia.”可知，angling在此陳述北磁極的現(xiàn)狀，說明北磁極與西伯利亞之間的關(guān)系，即：北磁極正朝西伯利亞方向“angling”。 借此分析給予的提示，不難找到信息句“the north magnetic pole is moving due to natura

17、l changes in the Earth's magnetic field”和“the pole has been migrating at an average speed of about 10 kilometers per year”。由此推斷，angling意為“moving/migrating”。 二、細(xì)節(jié)設(shè)問題 這類題所占比重最大，以how，what，why提問的問題為主。一般說來考生在文章中找到答案出處并不太難，難的是如何處理、轉(zhuǎn)換信息，從而歸納出問題的答案。因?yàn)楹喆痤}要求考生既要用最簡短的語言，又不能原封不動(dòng)地照搬原文的整句話。此外，在回答細(xì)節(jié)題時(shí)，一定要注意提問方式

18、和答案的協(xié)調(diào)性。不同類型的問題要求有不同形式的回答，不能僅僅為了答案的簡潔而忽略了問題與回答在形式上的對(duì)應(yīng)。 例如：就目的提問，就應(yīng)該用表示目的的用語作答，例如使用for短語、不定式短語；就原因提問，答案就應(yīng)當(dāng)用because of短語或 because從句，也可用不定式短語作答；就事件的可能性提問，答案通常用簡短而完整的簡單句；提問詞是what，多用名詞或名詞性短語、名詞性從句來回答，提問詞是how，則多用“by doing sth./by means of sth.”的形式回答。 例如：2009年湖南高考英語卷第73題：What did Grandfather do in Hershe

19、y's factory？(回答詞數(shù)不超過12個(gè))是就事件的可能性提問，故可用簡單句作答為：He pushed the vats of warm chocolate to a storage area. 2008年湖南高考英語卷第73題：What kind of tools are the sculptors Not permitted to use？(回答詞數(shù)不超過6個(gè))根據(jù)第二段的有效信息句“The sculptors bring out their favorite tools that work best on hard iced snow，but they are not allow

20、ed to employ tools that use electricity.”用名詞性短語作答為：The tools that use electricity. 2010年湖南高考英語卷第81題：What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have？(No more than 5 words)，根據(jù)第一段 “Linda wakes up，and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the pr

21、esents she carefully chose for them.”可用簡單句作答為：They will feel greatly surprised。 2011湖南高考英語卷第83題：What excuses did the author keep giving herself to stop？(No more than 9 words)，可根據(jù)第四段I kept giving myself the excuse to stop.No one would be disappointed.No one would even know.來確定答案為：No one would be dis

22、appointed or even know. 2012年湖南高考英語卷第81題：Why did the author apply everywhere that summer？(No more than 12 words)，根據(jù)第二段第二句“I wanted to save up money and buy my own car，so I applied everywhere I could that summer.”可知答案為：He wanted to save up money and buy his own car. 《湖南省2007年高考考試大綱英語科補(bǔ)充說明》提供的閱讀簡答題樣

23、題的75題：What is the villagers' main purpose to rebuild their community？(回答詞數(shù)不超過6個(gè))。此題提問目的，可用不定式短語回答：To keep their culture alive./To save their way of life. 三、主旨大意題 此類題常見的提問方式有：What is the main idea of the passage/text？What is the passage/text mainly about？What is the best title for this passage/tex

24、t？回答這類題的關(guān)鍵是要抓住文章的主旨句。而文章的主旨句大多出現(xiàn)在三個(gè)位置：文章首句，一段末二段首轉(zhuǎn)折后的信息，文章末句。但考生應(yīng)注意不可照抄原句，而需重新歸納、組織、概括(有的只需稍作歸納或?qū)χ黝}句作適當(dāng)改寫即可)。主旨句為判斷句式，具有高度概括性。 其答案形式有兩種：簡單句式和詞組式(多為名詞詞組或動(dòng)詞詞組)。例如，2007年湖南高考英語卷第75題，全文主題句為首段中的“It has drifted across the Canadian Arctic and is now angling toward Siberia.”，由下文語義邏輯關(guān)系可以推斷angling即為“移動(dòng)”之意，再結(jié)

25、合全文內(nèi)容稍加歸納，可以判斷答案為：The north magnetic pole is moving faster.答題形式為簡單句式。 再如：請(qǐng)根據(jù)某文首句“One thing Britain is famous for is pubs，and no trip to the UK would be complete without a visit to one of the thousands of pubs across the country.”回答問題：“What is the best title of the passage？(回答詞數(shù)不超過5個(gè))”。問題明顯是主旨題，直接對(duì)應(yīng)

26、首句，該句是由系動(dòng)詞is構(gòu)成的判斷句，具有高度概括性，告訴讀者整篇文章在圍繞英國的pub進(jìn)行論述，由此判斷最佳標(biāo)題為：Pubs in the UK。答案形式為名詞詞組式。 四、邏輯推理題 邏輯推理題旨在考查考生根據(jù)已知信息進(jìn)行合理推斷的邏輯思維能力，要求根據(jù)字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關(guān)系，研究細(xì)節(jié)暗示，推敲作者態(tài)度，理解文章寓意后再作回答。提問方式通常為：Why...？What can be inferred/concluded from...? What is the author's attitude toward...？What does the author use the exam

27、ples of...to show? 邏輯推理題要求考生在理解整體語篇的基礎(chǔ)上，掌握文章的真正內(nèi)涵，進(jìn)行合理的推斷。具體地說，要注意：①要吃透文章的字面意思，從字里行間捕捉有用的提示和線索，這是推理的前提和基礎(chǔ)；②要對(duì)文字的表面信息進(jìn)行挖掘加工，通過分析、綜合、判斷等，進(jìn)行深層處理，符合邏輯地推理；③要忠實(shí)于原文，以文章提供的事實(shí)和線索為依據(jù)進(jìn)行推斷，切忌主觀臆想，憑空想象，隨意揣測；④要把握句、段之間的邏輯關(guān)系，了解語篇的結(jié)構(gòu)，把握作者的寫作思路。例如，2008年湖南高考閱讀簡答題的75小題：Why did Team USA win the competition in 2006？(回答詞

28、數(shù)不超過15個(gè))。文章只是在倒數(shù)第二段提到美國隊(duì)在2006年冰雕錦標(biāo)賽上榮獲冠軍，但未直接提到獲獎(jiǎng)原因，而需考生作一定的邏輯思維推理：既然美國隊(duì)的冰雕作品能獲獎(jiǎng)，自然是因?yàn)樵u(píng)委們認(rèn)為他們的作品是最好的。評(píng)委們又是根據(jù)什么確認(rèn)他們的作品是最好的呢？自然就想到了評(píng)獎(jiǎng)細(xì)則。而文章第四段的“The judges then vote on creativity，technical skills，and visual impact of the designs.”就提到了評(píng)獎(jiǎng)細(xì)則。由此可判斷作答為：Because its sculpture was judged the best for creativi

29、ty，technical skills and visual impact.再如2009年湖南高考閱讀簡答題的74小題：Why didn't Hershey fire Grandfather？(回答詞數(shù)不超過10個(gè))，文中沒有直接用一個(gè)句子說出我爺爺保住工作的原因，而是通過最后一段Hershey所說的話“It's not your fault，son...I need to watch where I'm going.”來暗示Hershey沒有解雇我爺爺?shù)脑蚴且驗(yàn)樗庾R(shí)到錯(cuò)在自己而不是爺爺，由此可判斷作答為Because he realized it was his own fault./B

30、ecause he realized it was not Grandfather's fault/mistake. 誤區(qū)警示 一、讀懂問題上出錯(cuò) (2010·湖南高考)What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have？(No more than 5 words) 【錯(cuò)誤透析】 They will feel greatly surprised.在高考閱卷時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)有的考生甚至連問題中的reaction是什么意思都不清楚。對(duì)問題中的關(guān)鍵詞都不理解，怎么能談得上對(duì)問題的全面了解呢？ 【解題指導(dǎo)】 讀懂問題，查找線索。如解答詞義題時(shí)

31、，可注意找出原詞在文章中的同義代換詞，如果沒有，還應(yīng)注意破折號(hào)、同位語從句、定語從句、插入語等具有解釋、說明作用的語言成分。考生可先讀懂問題，后瀏覽全文，并在文中標(biāo)出問題中的線索詞，以保證其答案至少在內(nèi)容上能夠做到完整無缺。也有的考生對(duì)文章內(nèi)容了解不詳細(xì)，導(dǎo)致對(duì)問題答非所問。 二、語言簡練、準(zhǔn)確，概括性上出錯(cuò) (2011·湖南高考)81.Why did the author feel guilty？(No more than 9 words) 【錯(cuò)誤透析】 She had a quarrel with her husband.有的考生在回答本題時(shí)文字拖泥帶水，表達(dá)不簡練。甚至有的考生用詞

32、超過九個(gè)。 【解題指導(dǎo)】 語言簡練、準(zhǔn)確，概括性強(qiáng)。為了不至于忘掉字?jǐn)?shù)限制，考生要采用一些小技巧進(jìn)行形式上的濃縮，比如，可利用縮寫，將could not 縮寫為couldn't；盡量用詞或短語代替句子，盡量用簡單句代替復(fù)合句等。當(dāng)然解決問題的關(guān)鍵是使自己的語言有概括性，比如：對(duì)同類現(xiàn)象找出共性，進(jìn)行概括。 三、抓關(guān)鍵詞及主題句上出錯(cuò) (2012·湖南高考)84.What did the author learn from his first job？(No more than 11 words) (3 marks) 【錯(cuò)誤透析】 He learned teamwork，devotio

33、n and staying positive in rough situations.本題是綜合理解題。提問作者從他的第一份工作中學(xué)到什么，根據(jù)記敘文意義升華在尾段，定位到最后一段“From my first job at the restaurant，I learned teamwork and devotion.I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get.”答案受字?jǐn)?shù)限制需要合并句子，修改為：He learned teamwork，devotion，and staying positive i

34、n rough situations. 【解題指導(dǎo)】 學(xué)會(huì)抓關(guān)鍵詞及主題句。一篇文章的關(guān)鍵詞構(gòu)成語篇的精髓，抓住了關(guān)鍵詞，不僅有助于理解文章，而且表達(dá)上也能言簡意賅，正確選用關(guān)鍵詞比自己去組織答案要準(zhǔn)確、簡練得多，也省時(shí)省力。對(duì)于主旨類試題，第一步是找出概括文章中心思想的主題句，但還需將主題句重新歸納總結(jié)。否則，照抄原句是要扣分的。然而，并不是所有的主旨類試題都能在原文中找到主題句。對(duì)于原文中沒有提供主題句的主旨題，就需要考生利用關(guān)鍵詞自己歸納總結(jié)答案。 四、提問方式和答案的協(xié)調(diào)性上出錯(cuò) (2010·湖南高考)82.Why did Linda join the American Wome

35、n's Club of Toronto？(No more than 10 words) 【錯(cuò)誤透析】 She joined it for fellowship and community service.就目的提問，答案就應(yīng)當(dāng)用表示目的的用語，如for 短語，不定式短語。 【解題指導(dǎo)】 注意提問方式和答案的協(xié)調(diào)性。不同類型的問題要求有不同形式的回答，不能僅僅為了答案的簡潔而忽略了問題與回答在形式上的對(duì)應(yīng)。就原因提問，答案就應(yīng)當(dāng)用because of 短語或because 從句；提問詞是what，只能用名詞或動(dòng)名詞短語、名詞性從句來回答。掌握這一原則有助于增強(qiáng)考生回答題目的針對(duì)性。 五、語

36、言上出錯(cuò) (2011·湖南高考)84.How is running different from jogging to the author？(No more than 10 words) 【錯(cuò)誤透析】 Running makes her feel good while jogging makes her look good.該題的回答用了兩個(gè)動(dòng)名詞作主語，同時(shí)使用了make＋賓語＋賓語補(bǔ)足語的結(jié)構(gòu)。回答準(zhǔn)確，結(jié)構(gòu)嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)。但有的考生將run用不定式，而jog又用動(dòng)名詞，前后表達(dá)形式不一致。 【解題指導(dǎo)】 避免語言錯(cuò)誤。組織答案要認(rèn)真細(xì)致，避免使用不熟悉的句型、詞匯或短語，盡可能利用原文中的

37、關(guān)鍵詞語回答問題。要避免語言形式錯(cuò)誤，如拼寫錯(cuò)誤、標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號(hào)錯(cuò)誤、大小寫錯(cuò)誤，特別是回答問題時(shí)要注意首字母需大寫。同時(shí)避免語法錯(cuò)誤，要注意主謂是否一致、時(shí)態(tài)與原文是否對(duì)應(yīng)等?？傊?，簡答題基于理解，重在表達(dá)，簡答題的答案要精煉概括，言簡意賅，體現(xiàn)“簡”與“準(zhǔn)”二字。 總而言之，閱讀理解的簡答題，對(duì)學(xué)生用英語獲取信息、處理信息、分析和解決問題的能力提出了較高要求。它要求老師在平時(shí)注重對(duì)學(xué)生用英語進(jìn)行思維和表達(dá)能力的培養(yǎng)，引導(dǎo)學(xué)生增加詞匯儲(chǔ)備，通過廣泛的閱讀及正確的方法培養(yǎng)良好的閱讀習(xí)慣，提高閱讀速度和理解能力。這具有很好的后效作用。 (一) (2012·湖南十二校聯(lián)考) Almost e

38、verybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(購物手推車)．They will，in a lifetime，push the shopping carts many miles.But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
