1、“大学英语（B）”,阅读理解 解题指导,阅读理解考核要点,词汇量及结合上下文猜测词义的能力； 对英语语感及句型结构掌握程度； 对社会及生活各领域知识及常识的了解； 对文章主题思想的分析判断能力,阅读理解解题思路,一、如何节省时间 1）可以先快速浏览一遍短文后的问题及备选答案，这样有利于先行了解文章涉及到的主题和知识点范围，在阅读时就能有的放矢，迅速找到答案线索； 2）学会利用英语单词构成原理来猜测生词，不要纠缠在某个不认识的生词上，要快速扫视整句和整段，就能基本了解文章所论事物的梗概，也可以知道如何回答问题了； 3）注意文章的首段和尾段，一般主题句在这些部位，找到后就有助于理解全文写作宗旨。,
2、二、如何理解长句 在阅读英语文章时，一个比较明显的困难就是对长句的理解。 英语的思维模式、语感及其长句有固定的规律，掌握了这些规律，就容易看懂长句结构，弄清句子成分之间的关系，理解整个句子的含义了。 首先应了解的是，英语的语言结构是从前往后逐层向前递进堆叠的，堆叠的结果就是形成复合句，因此在主句和各从句、分句之间的关联词就显得十分重要，弄懂和会用这些关联词，才能看懂复杂的英语句子。这些关联词的使用，也是各种英语考试的重要考点之一。 以下对这些规律做一简单介绍：,英语语言基本结构： 在英语语言结构中，一般都是把最核心的东西放在句首，其后逐次填补补充性和说明性的内容。与此相反，汉语往往是把辅助性内
3、容放在句首，句子最后再出现句子的核心内容。 例： 汉：请带好身份证和准考证，明天上午8点在学校大门外集合后准时参加考试。 英：Please attend the examination with your ID card and entrance ticket on time after gathering together outside the school gate at 8o clock tomorrow morning.,英语语义群之间的关系,英语和汉语之间一个很大的差别是，汉语通常用按逻辑关系前后排放的简单句来表示复杂的内容；英语通常用主句和从句的复合句形式来表达复杂的内容。因此，
4、中国学生学英语时往往在对英语长句的分析理解上产生难处和困惑。结构形式： 汉语： 语义成分1 | 语义成分2 | 语义成分3 | 英语： 语义成分1 语义成分2语义成分3 例： 汉语：这是一本大红旧书。这是他的书，是他爸爸昨天给他买的。他爸爸参加过那场战争，他爸爸出上在这个房子里。 英语：This is a big red old book of him which was bought to him yesterday by his father who once took part in that war and was born in this house.,英语断句原理,1. 关联词前
5、Misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently（后置定语从句）. 2. 动词前 （主语短语）A foreigners first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rush（表语从句） often under pressure. 3. 两个动词之间 （主语从句）What he said is the most important clue of the case. 4. 两个
6、指示代词之间 Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis.,三、科学猜测词义,英语单词的基本构词法有三种：派生法、合成法和转化法。掌握这三种方法后，在阅读过程中遇到生词时，通常都可以采用望文生义的办法，把其含义大致猜测出来，进而继续阅读下去。 （一）派生法 英语词汇的派生法（也可以叫做前后缀法），即英语单词先有词根，后来通过在词根上添加前缀或后缀的方法，派生出与词根有意义关联的新词。通过了解前后缀的含义和功能，在辨认出词根成分，
7、就基本能看出一个单词的含义了。一般来讲，前缀一般转变词义，多数是构成反义；后缀一般转变词性。 例： nation （词根） Counter- inter- nation- al- ism (ist, ize) 其他词例：mistake，disease，lifeless，workable，development，computer，include- exclude，construction，concentrate (tion)，business，biology (gic),合成法： 18-year-old girl， bookshelf， photocopying 转化法： 名转动：water，p
8、erfume，hand，color 动转名：rest，try，use 形转动：red，warm，empty， 形转名：bad，poor，young 重音移动（双音节词，重音在前为名词，在后为动词）： conduct 指挥行为（动转名） contest 争论比赛（动转名） increase 增加增加（动转名）,真题例解,Passage 1 The French Revolution broke out in 1789.
