高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解得分秘籍：理解作者的意圖(2)

　　例3：

　　The number of married women who want to continue working increases rapidly because they enjoy their jobs. However, if they want to have children, they immediately have serious problems. Though most companies allow women to leave their jobs for a short time to have a baby, they expect women with babies to give up their jobs. In short, if they want to bring up children properly, both parents have to work, but it is hard for mothers to work. Indeed, women who want to continue working have to choose between having children or keeping their jobs.

　　In a word, Asian governments must take steps to improve the present situation as soon as possible. (2008年安徽卷E篇)

　　75. The writer seems to believe that Asian governments should              .

　　A. let women stay at home and have a baby

　　B. allow one of the parents to go out to work

　　C. care for the growing needs of women for jobs

　　D. punish the companies that permit women to leave

　　【解析】題目問(wèn)作者在亞洲政府對女性就業(yè)這一問(wèn)題上給出了什么建議。A．讓女性回歸家庭生兒育女；B．允許父母中的一個(gè)外出工作；C．對女性在工作方面的需求多加關(guān)注；D．懲罰那些允許女性離職的公司。根據第一段最后一句話(huà)"Indeed, women who…or keeping their jobs"及最后一段可知女性所面臨的實(shí)際困難，所以亞洲各國政府應該采取一些措施改變這一現狀來(lái)避免出現更多的DINK家庭，而最有效的措施是C項。

　　例4：

　　Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around. And judging from the number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army, I'm not alone in my opinion. (2008年浙江卷D篇)

　　54. What was the writer's attitude towards jogging in the beginning?

　　A. He felt it was worth a try.

　　B. He was very fond of it.

　　C. He was strongly against it.

　　D. He thought it must be painful.

　　【解析】本段講述了作者通過(guò)親自參加jogging(慢跑)鍛煉，體會(huì )到j(luò )ogging并不像人們想象中的那么好，他認為自己的鍛煉方式也可以達到健身的目的。題目問(wèn)作者起初對慢跑的看法如何。A．他認為值得一試；B．他非常喜歡這項運動(dòng)；C．他極力反對這項運動(dòng)；D．他認為這項運動(dòng)非常痛苦。從"I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could."和"So I took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more."兩句，我們可以看出作者起初對慢跑并無(wú)排斥心理，而且認為值得一試，A項較符合作者的態(tài)度。

　　例5：

　　It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us had reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence(青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria. (2008年天津卷E篇)

　　55. How does the author feel about his childhood?

　　A. Happy but short.

　　B. Lonely but memorable.

　　C. Boring and meaningless.

　　D. Long and unforgettable.

　　【解析】題目問(wèn)作者如何評價(jià)自己的童年。A．快樂(lè )卻短暫；B．孤單卻值得回憶；C．乏味、無(wú)趣；D．漫長(cháng)而又難忘。根據"It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end."和 下句"In March…,"以及下句"…and all of a sudden it occurred to a11 three of us…high school cafeteria"可以看出作者是在慨嘆童年時(shí)光快樂(lè )卻短暫。答案選A。

　　高考閱讀理解設題越來(lái)越靈活。題目難度也逐年增加，作者的態(tài)度觀(guān)點(diǎn)已不僅僅局限在"是與非"、"支持與反對"、"樂(lè )觀(guān)與悲觀(guān)"的選擇上，而是加入了更多對文章細節和主旨大意理解的要求。解答這類(lèi)題的時(shí)候，同學(xué)們要注意題目的提問(wèn)方法是否有明確的針對性。即是針對文章中的一部分進(jìn)行設題。還是對全文的寫(xiě)作目的或意圖進(jìn)行考查。結合多種閱讀技巧有助于同學(xué)們做出正確選擇。
