题文

The word “sport” first meant somethin that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting (捕猎) wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best one can earn a lot of money. For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than ＄3000 a year. The starts earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions (网球锦标赛) can make more than ＄50000 in a year. Of course, only a few sporsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals (个人的) like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is that: the star can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertising for sports equipment (设备) does not simply say “Buy our thing”. It says “Buy the same shirt and shoes as…”. Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their name or a photo of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time. 根据上文内容判断正（T）误（F） 小题1:A “professional” sportsman is someone who likes sports very much. 小题2: The word “sport” now usually means “organized ” games. 小题3: An advertisement for sports equipment just says “Buy our thing”. 小题4:The sport stars can earn as much money from advertising as from sport. 小题5:This passage mainly talks about sport and money.

据专家权威分析，试题“The word “sport” first meant somethin that people did in the..”主要考查你对  历史文化类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：

历史文化类阅读

考点名称：历史文化类阅读

• 历史文化类阅读：
  本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议，所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
  阅读这类文章，先弄清其引入的话题，再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法，然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。

• 初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧：
  一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理，阅读时要去掉杂念，心绪要安定，精神要专一，要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
  切不可一遇到几个生词难句，就心烦意乱，失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们，任何恐慌，过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
  因此，遇到困难一定要从容不迫，心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰，理解深刻。
  
  二、要提高视读的速度，考阅读理解，从另一个方面来说，考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时，要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
  切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭，只要全篇理解了，个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测，去推断。
  
  三、对文章的评价分析，一定要坚持“词不离句，句不离篇”，要理解文章作者的原意，而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
  切记：一想当然，就会出错。
