题文

In most languages, a greeting is usually followed by "small talk". Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: "Nice day, isn't it?" "Terrible weather, isn't it?" But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small. talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk in English. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: "Great game, isn't it?" At bus-stops, people may comment about the transport system: "The bus service is terrible, isn't it?" Greetings and small talk are an important part of conversation in any language. The way people greet each other and the things they talk about, however, may be different from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the vocabulary and the grammar of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it. 小题1:The passage suggests that when we learn a language______. A．we should know the culture about the country B．we should only master the grammar and vocabulary C．we should grasp the importance of the language D．we should learn about the transport system of the country 小题2: When we say "Great game, isn't it?" we in fact______. A．have a conversation B．begin a small talk C．greet each other D．ask a question 小题3: What we learn from the passage is that______. A．in English-speaking countries we should talk about the weather B．different language has different grammar C．small talk is an important part in a language D．small talk depends on the purpose of the conversation

题型：阅读理解  难度：偏易

答案

小题1:A 小题2:B 小题3:C

试题分析：这篇文章主要讲了人们常常会在问候之后开始小小的对话。在说英语的国家，人们常常谈论天气而不谈宗教政治。小对话是为了让双方同意某个观点。学习语言不仅仅是学单词和语法，还要学人的社会行为。 小题1:推理判断题。We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it.句意：我们也必须学习说这种语言的人的社会行为。也就是说要了解这个国家的文化。故选A。 小题2:细节理解题。根据The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: "Great game, isn't it?"句意：小对话的主题取决于对话发生的地点。在足球比赛时，人们可以开始小对话，谈论他们正在观看的比赛。“很棒的比赛，不是吗？”可知应选B。 小题3:推理判断题。根据Greetings and small talk are an important part of conversation in any language.句意：问候和小对话是任何一种语言的重要部分。故选C。

政治经济类阅读

考点名称：政治经济类阅读

• 政治经济类阅读：
  该类文章时代气息浓郁，语言鲜活，但熟字新义词、超纲词及专业词语多，长句、难句多。
  政治类文章大多数是同学们感性趣的内容，读起来倒有似曾相识的感觉，经济类文章读起来就像是雾里看花，文章看完，一头雾水。
  再加之这类文章的命题侧重于词义猜测、推理判断和文章主旨，同学们对这类题材是望而生畏。
  

• 政治经济类阅读注意：
  1、要做好这类阅读，平时就要注意了解国内外发生的政治经济大事，掌握一定背景知识；
  2、对这类文章的叙述特点及内容安排有一定了解，还要扩展这方面的词汇；
  3、阅读这类文章，要抓住文章的核心，即文章整体和各段主要在说什么，也要注意段落之间的逻辑关系。

  政治经济类阅读技巧：
  针对不同体裁的文章，我们要采取相应的阅读方法和技巧。政治类文章多采用记叙文形式，我们可采取“顺读法”，以便抓关键语句，领会文章主旨；而经济类文章则多采用说明文形式，我们则可以采取“逆读法”，先读试题，再从文章中查找有用信息。若遇到的确难读的材料。
  1. 寻找主干：
  根据英语中五种基本句型结构，把句子中的主语、谓语、宾语、表语等主要成分找出来，其他成分如定语、状语、补语等则易于理解。找到了句子主干，句子的意思至少明白了一半。
  2. 剔除从句：
  在一个长句中可能会出现若干个从句，在理解时，如果把各个从句剔除出来单独理解，然后把大意拼凑起来，整个长句的意思就会明白六、七分。
  3. 辨别分句：
  一个长句如果是由几个并列、转折、递进、对比关系的分句组成，句中往往有表示这些分句关系的连接词，只要能弄清楚分句和分句之间的逻辑关系，再把各层分句的意思加以连贯，整个长句的句意基本上能跃然脑中。
  4. 寻找关键词：
  如果一个句子看完，一点句意的感觉也没有，下下策就是抓住句中的关键词，通过关键词大体弄懂这个长句的意思。
