高考新题型—英语阅读表达答题指导

【题型概述】

“阅读表达”是2007年高考英语山东卷中的一个新题型。之后被高考天津卷的“阅读表达”所模仿。它是根据新课程标准的有关要求，加强对考生实际阅读能力的考查，以及检查考生通过阅读，将理解和表达结合起来的能力，以提高语言能力测试的效度。阅读表达题以其多角度、开放性的命题方式，更有效地测试考生实际理解和运用英语的能力，有助于克服单纯选择题的弊端。因此，要特别注重综合语言运用的训练，培养用英语分析、归纳、综合、推理、判断等逻辑思维能力。“阅读表达”是全新的题型，对考生英语思维的深度和广度要求显著提高。

那么，解答“阅读表达”有无技巧和方法可循？下面结合一篇文章，具体分析一下如何解答“阅读表达”题型。

【范文例析】

阅读下面的短文，根据要求完成所给的5个小题。

Every people uses its own special words to describe things and express ideas. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Where’s the beef?” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s, “Where’s the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone was using it all the time.

Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and probably no food is more popular in America than the hamburger made from it. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray Kroc began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Kroc called his restaurant “McDonald’s”. Kroc cooked hamburgers quickly so people in a hurry could buy and eat them without waiting. By the end of the 1960s the McDonald’s Company was selling hamburgers in hundreds of restaurants from California to Maine. Not surprisingly, Ray Kroc became one of the richest businessmen in America.

Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company, called “Wendy’s”, began to compete with McDonald’s. Wendy’s said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald’s or anyone else. The Wendy’s Company created the expression “Where’s the beef?” to make people believe that Wendy’s hamburgers were the biggest. It produced a television advertisement to sell this idea. The Wendy’s television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a tiny bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where’s the beef?” she shouted in a funny voice.  These advertisements for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants were a success from the first day ________________________________. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Where’s the beef?”

【答题技巧】

下面结合范文阅读表达五个题目的不同要求,具体讲述答题技巧:

第1小题是用英语写出文章的题目。首先通读全文，通过阅读考生就会觉察到作者写这篇文章的真正目的是什么，关键词往往出现在文章的开头或结尾，也有文章需要通读全文后才能得出结论。一般来说，文章的主题可以作为文章的题目。所以，用“文章主题”做题目是一个不错的选择。通读全文我们发现，第一段写 “Where’s the beef?” 的广泛应用及其含义，第二段写beef在美国食品中的重要作用，第三段谈到广告具体涉及 “Where’s the beef?”的来历，我们从中可以揣摩出题目来。因此，本文的题目（也是主题）是：How Did the Expression “Where’s the beef?” Come from?（“牛肉在哪”成语的来历）。

第2小题是给出一个句子，要求从原文中找出一个句子，意思与此句意义相同或相近。做该题时一定要分析所给句子的结构、含义和用意，在文章中找句子时一定要通读上下文，切不可段章取意。范文题目问的是，文章中的哪一个句子可以由 “A very useful expression used when something is not worthy of the name or the title.” 代替（而意思不变）。首先，要弄明白本句的意思：“一个非常有用的短语，用于某种东西名不副实的时候”。实际上，这个答案很好找到，Where’s the beef? 这个成语的比喻意义就是此意。

第3小题是用适当的词、短语或句子填空。难度较大，得分不易。此题要求考生对整篇文章或某一段落的准确理解，通过逻辑思维，反复推敲，用最简练的几个单词把意思表达出来。命题者往往把那些上下连贯、前后相通的句子进行空格处理，就像完形填空一样，考生可以通过上下文补充出所缺的成分。本题是这样的：These advertisements for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants were a success from the first day ________________________________.从上文看，这里需要一个与the first day有关的从句，本段讲的就是“在电视上做广告”的事，从整个内容推测，应该是“广告出现在电视上的第一天起就获得了巨大成功”。那么需要补充的内容可能就是：when they appeared on television.

第4小题是开放性试题，要求考生发表自己的见解。表达一定要准确无误，语言规范，切忌出现语法错误和表达含混不清。此题要求回答两个问题：1. 你认为汉堡包在美国受欢迎吗？2. 理由是什么？要回答完美这个问题，一定要选择自己有把握，理由充分的答案，不要选择回答连自己就弄不明白的问题。本题可供参考的答案是：Yes, hamburgers are popular in America mainly because they are made from beef.

第5小题是英译汉的翻译题。此题往往是集文中的长句、难句、关键句于一体，翻译时一定要整体考虑，表述准确，句子通顺。probably no food is more popular in America than the hamburger made from it. 译为：也许，在美国没有什么食品比牛肉做的汉堡包更受欢迎了。
