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（mainidea）、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。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”。\n 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。在中考前的一个月中，除了根据学校老师的安排进行总复习外，同学们自己复习英语时如何才能少走弯路呢？笔者提出三条建议。　　逐个消灭弱项　　每位考生要静下心来，对自己作一个客观的评估，找出自己的弱项，缺什么补什么。一般来说，到现在为止，自己的弱项不会太多。即使有较多的弱项，也要找最弱的先补习。可以先注意词汇的复习。词汇掌握好坏与听力、语法、阅读、选择及写作均有直接的关系，建议考生先把要求掌握的单词词组认真筛选几遍，巩固拼写与词义，然后复习一下单词的种种变化和用法。以单词care为例，它可以做名词，也可以做动词，其形容词形式有careful与careless，再可以变为副词形式carefully和carelessly，而careless又有其名词形式carelessness等，这些不同的形式在句子中又有着不同的用法。如：　　1、Youshouldtakecareofyour-self.（名词）2、Idon＇tcareforsmoking.（动词）3、Becarefulwhenyoucrossthestreet.（形容词）4、Somecarelesspersonhasbrokentheglass.（形容词）5、Walkcarefully，oryoumayfall.（副词）在英语的十大词类中，动词无疑是最为活跃的词类之一。动词是构成句子的重要组成部分，它有谓语动词和非谓语动词的区别，有及物动词和不及物动词的区别，有瞬间动词和延续动词的区别，有主动语态和被动语态的区别和时态的区别。动词又可以与其他的词搭配构成丰富多彩的词组。以make为例：makefriendswithsb.…（与…交朋友），makeafilm（拍电影），makemistakes（犯错），makeanoise（吵闹），makeafire（生火），makemoney（挣钱），make\nprogress（取得进步），makeuseof（利用）以及由make构成被动语态的多种用法，如：bemadeof…，bemadefrom…，bemadeby…，bemadefor　　…，bemadein…，bemadeupof…等，希望考生要弄清以上这些问题。 　　每天朗读课文 　　每天要听5－10分钟的英语录音来维持和提高听力水平。要坚持每天朗读一两篇课文，要通过听与读来巩固语感，保持对英语听力的敏感性。参加中考的学生大多会感到最难的莫过于完形填空，因为完形填空不仅从阅读的语言知识上对考生的应用能力进行考察，而且还需要考生有较好的语感和较广的知识面。做完形填空切忌急于求成。考生要先通览全文，大致了解文章的体裁、内容、情节的发展或前因后果。面对空格中要填写的单词可以先做试探性的猜测，然后逐句细读，根据上下文意思选取语法正确，意思贴切的单词填入。如果给了首个字母，范围就更缩小了。对于把握不大的空格，可以先搁置一下往下读，说不定答案就在下文中呢！完形填空的成功建立在足够的词汇量，熟练的语言表达能力，正确的语法知识和较广的知识面的基础上的。如：Thethemeofthe2010ShanghaiWorldExpois“BettyCity，Better1”.Thisthemeis2ofnewideas.TheWorldExpoisknown3theEconomicOlympics.whenheldinShanghaiin2010，itwillgivemuchtothedevelopmentofShanghai.At450millionvisitors5aroundtheworldwillcometothesix－monthexhibi-tionin2010，weChinesepeopleshoulddoour6inpreparationforExpo－2010. 　　在这篇完形填空文章中，第一空考查每一位考生对2010上海世博的主题是否了解，应填life。第二空是一个词组befullof，第三空考查beknownas的用法。第四空atleast有“至少”的意思，第五空应填from，而最后一空则又是一个词组doone＇sbest。考前练习小短文\n 　　要坚持写一些50－80字的小短文，要多用自己熟悉的单词、词组和句型，题材要广泛，如写一件事、一个人、一个物品、一封信、一则通知、一则广告或根据图画写话等，要注意拼写正确，无语法错误，表达要达意，可把自己写的短文让老师批改一下，找出自己还存在的问题，进行分析，及时补缺。 　　最后，“看试卷”也是一种有效的复习方法，请考生把近期做过的大小试卷和练习题分门别类整理一下，定下心来认真仔细过一遍，把以前存在的问题弄清，有针对性地进行强化复习。相信通过以上这些办法进行最后复习，考生在中考中一定能考出优秀的成绩。生活中的两极发布时间：2009-01-14，作者：putclub来源：点击:75290生活中的两极推荐资源·[独家推荐]4天记忆1000单词·免费领疯狂英语全套学习资料·全新英语训练解决成长的烦恼·听总统电台演讲学领先风范·让您的英语与母语一样棒·剖析全球经济学金融英语·去美国学原汁原味英语·提高英语听说的秘密上一篇  下一篇IthasbeensobitterlycoldhereinPennsylvania.　　Ican’trememberawinterbeingascoldasthis,butI’msuretherewerecolderdays.　　Eventhoughthedaylighthoursaregrowinglongerminutebyminute,it’seasytofindanexcusenottogooutunlessyouabsolutelymust,butbhenagainIoftenhavetopushmyselftoaccomplish\nthings.　　PeopleIspeaktohavebeeninallkindsofnastymoods.Theysaythey’re“undertheweather,”notfeelinggoodaboutthistimeofyear.　　AsIstoodoutsidewithmytwodogsyesterday,itwassocoldthatmynoseandfacefeltcrispandmycarswerestinging.　　Ofcourse,thatdoesn’tmattertoRickyandLucy.Theyhavearoutinetheymustgothroughtofindjustthefightspotnomatterhowcoldorhotitis.　　SoIwait.　　Butthistimeitwasdifferent.Ascoldasitwas,Isuddenlywasinvigoratedthinkingabouthowwonderfulthisextremecoldreallywas.　　Thenthesunbrokethroughthecloudsandmemoriesofsummer’sscorchinghotdaysflashedthroughmymind.Icouldrememberstandingintheheatoftheafternoon,sweatpouringdownmybrowandthehot,burningsunagainsemyface.IremindedmyselfthenandtherethatinthecoldofthewinterIwouldwishIhadthisheat.　　Iwasright.　　TwoextremesinmylifethatmostofthetimeIfinduncomfortable,Inormallydreadthemandgripeaboutitallthewaythrough.　　ButtodayIwasgratefulforthem.Withouttheextremesinmylife,Iwouldneverappreciatethedayswhenthingswerejustright.Withouttheextremeslifewouldbeboring.　　It’sbeingpushedtooneoftheextremesthatmakesusappreciatethemiddlemore.Healthchallengesremindsusthatweneedtopaymoreattentiontohowwelive.Financialextremesremindsusthatwhenthingsareinexcessit’stimetotuckawayforwhenthetimesarelean.　　SobringonthecoldsoIappreciatetheheatmore.　　Makemesweatonahotsummer’sdaysoIwishIhadahandfulofsnowtorubmyfacein.　　I’vecometotheconclusionthatalltoooftenIfindareasonnottobehappywithwhereIamatthatmoment.　　Whetherit’shotorcold,goodhealthorbad,inthemoneyoroutofit,Ialwayswantedittobedifferent.　　Butnomore.IwanttostartfindingareasontobehappyrightwhereIam.Evenifit’ssimplythefactthatI’malive.　　I’mtiredofbeing“UndertheWeather!”\nBackHome回家发布时间：2009-01-14，作者：putclub来源：点击:28069BackHome回家推荐资源·[独家推荐]4天记忆1000单词·免费领疯狂英语全套学习资料·全新英语训练解决成长的烦恼·听总统电台演讲学领先风范·让您的英语与母语一样棒·剖析全球经济学金融英语·去美国学原汁原味英语·提高英语听说的秘密上一篇  下一篇AgentlebreezeblewthroughJennifer'shair.Thegoldenredsunwassetting.Shewasonthebeach,lookingupatthefieryball.Shewasamazedbyitscolor,deepredinthemiddle,soft
