One day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and   watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force  its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.        So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the   butterfly could come our easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings   when it came out of the cocoon.        The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at   any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the   butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never   bale to fly.        The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out   of the cocoon, fluid (流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for   flying. It must have a hard struggle (拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the   cocoon.        Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life   without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we   could never fly.

故事类阅读

考点名称：故事类阅读

• 故事类阅读：
  文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
  命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
  阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

• 故事类阅读注意：
  初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
  阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。
  
  特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
  而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。
  
  凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。
  
  在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
