35、 读有关文章提取有用信息的能力。 【考试方向】 议论文是英语中的重要文体，在每年的高考阅读理解中占有一定的比例。 议论文就是说理性的文章，一般由论点、论据和论证过程组成。议论文都要提出论题、观点、提供充 分的证据，使用一定的逻辑方法证明观点或得出结论。议论文的写法通常有以下三种形式： 写法一：写法一：正方(甲方)，反方(乙方)，我认为 写法二：写法二：提出问题，分析问题，解决问题。 写法三：写法三：论点，理由(证据)，重申论点。 议论文的内容涵盖文化、历史、文学、科学和教育等各个方面。在这类体裁的文章中把握好论点、论 据和论证很重要。此类体裁的文章中有关主旨大意和推理判断的题目会较多，这也是得

36、分比较难的题型。 在阅读这类文章的时候，我们要认真把握作者的态度，领悟弦外之音，从而更好地依据文章的事实做出合 理的推断。 注意事项：注意事项： 1. 避免读得太快，做题靠印象和直觉。避免读得太快，做题靠印象和直觉。(要求每一道题回到原文去找答案) 2. 要先看题目，后读文章。要先看题目，后读文章。(与先读文章，后看题目的比较) 高考材料阅读方法：先通读全文，重点读首段、各段的段首段尾句，然后其他部分可以略读，再审题 定位，比较选项，选出答案。要有把握文章的宏观结构、中心句的能力。 3. 阅读中需要特别注意并做记号的有：阅读中需要特别注意并做记号的有： (1)标志类、指示类的信息。 表示并列关

39、二遍怎么办？ (4)做题技巧用不上怎么办？ 能够不由自主地按照正确的思路解题了，才表明我们正确掌握了这些技巧。 在课堂听明白之后，还需要回去自己思考，针对自己的实际进行分析，从而对症下药。 【得分要点】 解答议论类阅读理解试题，可以从以下几个方面着手考虑： 作者在开始叙述一个现象，然后对现象进行解释。这类文章的主题是文中最重要的解释或作者所强调 的解释，阅读时要注意作者给出的原因，所以又被称为原因结果(Cause it is about relationships.
