‎2020届二轮复习阅读理解专题技能突破(10)七选五之从词汇上锁定线索 ‎【技能讲解】　做题时很重要的一点是保持对一些线索词的敏感，最主要的线索特征词是空白处前后的名词和动词，寻找答案时注意在选项中查找同义词、近义词、反义词或表示同一类事物的词语等。其次是代词、数词、表示时间/年代的词、地点/名称等专有名词。尤其是在读不懂句子的情况下，利用这样的线索词寻找答案是很有效的方法。,另外，注意一些表示转折、并列、因果的信息词，如however， though， but， besides， therefore， as a result等。‎ 典例剖析 ‎[北京高考]‎ This Way to Dreamland Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. __1__ They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.‎ But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __2__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?‎ So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?‎ First, understand that some opportunities (机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. __3__ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.‎ It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”， being ‎ focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. __4__‎ Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. __5__‎ Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.‎ A．Having interesting things to think about also helps.‎ B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves.‎ C．Without wandering minds, we wouldn't have relativity, Coke or Postit notes.‎ D．At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.‎ E．It involves slow, steady breathing for selfcontrol that helps people stay calm and attentive.‎ F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.‎ G．Therefore, it's a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you're in the daydream zone.‎ ‎[答案]　1.B　空前一句和空后一句都是空想家不好的外在表现，主语都是They，故本空答案为B项。‎ ‎2．C　选项C中的“relativity, Coke or Postit notes”与空前的“greatest ideas and achievements”和空后一句中的“such ideas and inventions”相对应，故答案为C项。‎ ‎3．A　选项A中的“also helps”与空前一句中的“help”对应，且两句话主语形式统一，都说的是进入空想的条件，故答案为A项。‎ ‎4．E　本段主要谈如何避免空想。选项E中的It指代上句中的Mindfulness，此处是对上句内容的解释，故答案为E项。‎ ‎5．G　选项G中的“to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby”很好地解决了上句话中提出的问题，同时Therefore很好地把两句话进行了连接，故答案为G项。‎ 技能演练 ‎“ADDING VALUE”‎ Most people either “like” their job，“love” their job or “hate” their job. Everyone wants to make more money regardless of how they feel about their job. The secret to making more money is, focus on adding value. Think less of what you can have or acquire. __1__ You don't always have to do more though we always can do more. What you might consider is “doing different”. Let me explain.‎ ‎1．Do you choose to be happy at work? It's a choice. And you can do it. It's a lot of “mind over matter”. Mind what's important and the rest doesn't matter. __2__ When you choose to be happy, you will affect others in the workplace.‎ ‎2．__3__ Michael's definition of a “drag” is, a person who “drastically reduces all good.”Of course, they have a bad attitude. If you're this kind of person, you can change. Start being positive. Start by giving subtle and honest praise to coworkers. Just start looking for authentic reasons to give others some praise. It will set you apart from everyone else. People will recognize you as being more caring and more interested in them. Your influence will skyrocket especially if you're in an environment where there is little praise and encouragement.‎ ‎3．CHOOSE what you are going to think. Most people have given in to CNN, ABC, NBC, “the way things are”， society, drama, negativity and the like. It's time to take back charge of your brain. Get your focus directed. Like Paul said in the bible, “Think on these things. Things that are true, are of a good report, are honorable, are positive.” __4__ If you have nothing to read that is positive, send me your email address and I'll send you a free copy of my ‘Powerful Attitudes’ ebook. Read a little every morning. It will positively and powerfully affect the rest of your day.‎ When you change yourself, you will add value in your workplace. Like the late great business philosopher, Jim Rohm said, “You can take out the garbage at McDonalds and earn minimum wage. But if you take out the garbage and whistle as you do it every day, you're likely to earn 50‎ ‎ cents more per hour.” Add value to your workplace by controlling your own attitude. __5__‎ A．Start your day by reading something positive.‎ B．Think more of what you can do, produce of create.‎ C．Just be yourself and create a strong self image.‎ D．Are you a “drag”？‎ E．Your attitude and your happiness is important.‎ F．Fall in love with it.‎ G．You will advance faster and in time, make a lot more money.‎ 答案：BEDAC
