【2013届高考英语一轮复习】阅读策略高考阅读理解中有关文学作品类的解读.docVIP

文学作品类阅读素材解读 文学作品已经成为近几年的英语学科高考阅读测试材料中的热点，比如今年江苏的高考卷阅读D篇和福建高考卷B篇，这些材料从内容上看，往往有个性鲜明的人物、生动形象的语言、跌荡起伏的情节。阅读题目的设置则明显是考查学生的词汇量基础以及在对词汇语言的深处理解。此类材料在选择时，往往考虑内容的可读性，具备明显的矛盾冲突；题目设置一般难度中等，以细节题和对材料中人物性格的考查为主，同时兼顾考查作品的文脉。 阅读英语文学作品时，要求学生提高常见的阅读技能：英语学习者学到的各种阅读技巧如略读(skimming)、扫读(scanning)、细读(normal reading)等均可在阅读文学作品中用到。英语学习者，在阅读生词量不大且又很想快些了解故事情节的地方，可以使用略读，既节省时间又了解了大意；在阅读次要或不感兴趣的情节的时候，可以扫读来搜寻衔接故事情节的段落和句子以继续了解故事情节的发展；在阅读小说精彩的情节时，可以反复细读来揣摩作者的意图和作品字里行间的含义。在阅读文学作品的时候，语言学习者是根据自身的需要主动使用各种阅读方法，这样比为了练习阅读技能而去读一些阅读段落更见成效。 【高考真题赏析】 Franz Kafka wrote that a book must be the ax (斧子) for the frozen sea inside us.

Are you crying? one girl asked, as she got out of her chair to take a closer look. I am, I told her, and the funny thing is Ive read it many times. But they understood. When George shoots Lennie, the tragedy is that we realize it was always going to happen. In my 14 years of teaching in a New York City public middle school, Ive taught kids with imprisoned parents, abusive parents, irresponsible parents; kids who are parents themselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods. They understand, more than I ever will, the novels terrible logic—the giving way of dreams to fate (命运). For the last seven years, I have worked as a reading enrichment teacher, reading classic works of literature with small groups of students from grades six to eight. I originally proposed this idea to my headmaster after learning that a former excellent student of mine had transferred out of a selective high school--one that often attracts the literary-minded children of Manhattans upper classes—into a less competitive setting. The daughter of immigrants, with a father in prison, she perhaps felt uncomfortab
