专题技能突破(7)阅读理解之指代对象题 【技能讲解】　“代词指代对象题”解题技巧——语境线索法,对于考查代词指代对象的试题，通常要根据上下文语境来猜测代词的含义。首先要了解代词指代的是名词、短语、句子还是人物、时间或行为，然后找到离该词最近的名词、短语或句子，因为它们最有可能是被代替的内容。若就近找不到答案，可以根据文章的线索向上寻找，直到找到指代的对象为止。注意，代词指代的对象一般不在下文，因此只需往上文找即可。找到可能正确的指代内容后可代入原文，进行验证，如内容恰当，即为正确答案。典例剖析 1.[2015·浙江高考，C篇]If humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars, we would go in darkness happily, the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal (夜间活动的) species on this planet.

Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red. I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him. Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists? Its about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be traced and there might be an opportunity to claim. ——JML Write to Viewpoints of the newspaper. QThe underlined word “they” in the third letter refers to ________. A．accidents B．vehicles C．pedestrians D．cyclists [答案]　D　指代判断题。根据第三封信第一段第一句的主语“Cyclists”可知，该信主要是
