解析

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。一位叫Gordon的陌生人对作者进行了帮助,带作者去家里吃饭,并帮助作者搭便车。后来,作者一直想帮助别人,特别是等待搭便车的人,但是由于作者的丈夫对陌生人不信任,一直未能实现。后来,作者在一次单独驾车出行时,帮助了一位老人和孩子搭便车,而那位老人竟然就是曾经帮助作者的Gordon。小题1:A 考察副词辨析。根据下文的after working overtime for some time可知此处表示休假5天。在4各选项中,off有休假的意思。故A正确。小题2:C 考察副词辨析。根据下文the only train that day…I thought I’d…可知唯一可以返乡的火车已经离开,所以作者感觉自己很不幸运。故C项正确。小题3:B 考察动词辨析。根据下文I thought I’d thumb a lift可知作者认为自己只能搭便车了。由此可以推理唯一的火车已经离开了。故B正确。小题4:D 考察名词辨析。根据语境可知,作者当时在路边等着搭便车,highway指公路,大路,与文意相符。故D正确。小题5:答案:C 考查动词辨析。一位路过的男士介绍自己是Gordon。introduce onelf as可作为短语使用,是“自称”之意。由此可知,C项符合语境。故答案选C。小题6:答案:C 考查连词辨析。根据下文“I could come to his hou”可知,前后句为让步关系。因此,although“虽然,尽管”与此相符。故答案选C。小题7:答案:D 考查形容词辨析。根据下文“after standing for hours”和上文“for lunch”,并结合选项可知,空格处表达的意思是“饥饿的”,因此,hungry符合文义。故答案选D。小题8:B 考察形容词辨析。根据下文可知Gordon请作者去他家吃午饭,因为当时作者有点犹豫,所以对方使作者相信自己是安全的。由此可知,空格处应该使用safe,suspicious,故B正确。小题9:A 考察名词辨析。根据上文第一段最后一句,I thought I’d thumb a lift,可知,此处指的是Gordon使作者相信他他也会帮助作者搭到一辆车。根据lift符合上下文语境。故A正确。小题10:C 考察名词辨析。根据上文第二段第一句I could come to his hous可知作者到了Gordon的住处。故C项符合上下文。小题11:B 考察名词辨析。此处的语境与上文形成鲜明的对比,作者的丈夫不相信陌生人,不会让他们搭便车。由此可知B正确。小题12:答案:A 考查形容词辨析。作者一心想帮助别人搭便车,但是,她的丈夫不愿意那样做。因此,从那些在路边上等待搭便车的人旁边经过时,作者心里感到难过。由此可知,bad符合文义。故答案选A。小题13:C 考察副词辨析。根据上下文可知,作者之所以难过,是因为她从来不帮助陌生人,让他们搭便车。选项中只有C项表示否定的含义。故C正确。小题14:B 考察动词辨析。作者第一次单独驾车时,注意到一个老人带着一个小男孩。因此B项符合上下文含义。小题15:D考察动词辨析。根据上下文可知,此处指老人正在等着搭便车,get a ride是固定搭配,是搭便车的意思。故D正确。小题16:D 考察名词辨析。根据上文可知,此处指作者早在几十年前就被给予了帮助,所以作者在寻找机会来报答曾经被给予帮助。D项帮助,恩惠;符合上下文。故D正确。小题17:答案:A 考查名词辨析。根据上文“an elderly man with a small boy”可知,此处指的是老人和孩子两个人。在四个选项中,pair符合文义。故答案选A。小题18:B 考察动词辨析。根据语境可知,此处指的是作者和他们一起分享水和甜品。因此shared与文意相符。故B正确。小题19:答案:A 考查副词辨析。根据上下文可知,空格处表示的是程度,前后两句为递进关系,even意为“甚至”,与此相符。故答案选A。小题20:答案:D 考查动词辨析。根据语境可知,作者一时想不起在哪里见过他。remind意为“提醒”;repeat意为“重复”;recommend意为“推荐,建议,劝告”;recall意为“回想起,记起”。根据语境可知,答案选D。

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。 【备考提醒】为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点: 1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。 2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。 3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。 4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
