15、】高中英语教学的核心是阅读，它具有双重性：一是对学生进行阅读技能、技巧的训练，培养其阅读理解能力;而是通过阅读，使学生不断学到新的语言知识，提高学生实际运用英语的能力。英语阅读理解能力是高考考查的重点，下面就跟着yjbys小编一起来学习一下高中英语阅读理解说明文阅读策略吧!【高中英语阅读理解说明文阅读策略】英语阅读理解可以分为论述类、说明类、广告信息类、叙述类和文学类。不同的文章有着不同的语篇结构，不同的语义语言结构和不同的阅读策略。掌握恰当的阅读策略较快地抓住文章的主旨，作者的写作意图，把握篇章结构，了解篇章内容。说明文在近五年江苏高考英语试卷中稳定性出现，可是考生得分率却很低，许多考生存在
16、着不同程度的畏难心理。老师通过引导学生进行正确阅读，获取作者的写作意图，观点和知识，带领学生掌握相应的阅读策略。一、说明文结构特点所谓科技说明文，就是指研究自然科学与技术的文章。说明文是对事物或事理进行客观说明的一种文体，它以说明为主要表达方式，通过解说事物或阐明事理，达到教人以知识的目的，在结构上往往采用总分、递进等方式按一定的顺序(如时间、空间、从现象到本质)进行说明。说明文的特点是客观、简练、语言准确、明了，文章很少表达作者的感情倾向。阅读说明文的重点在与读懂它说明的事物或事理，了解事物的性质、构造、成因、功能等，了解事理的含意、特点等。二、说明文选材特点最近五年，说明文的出现变化不大，
17、一直很稳定，选材通常是各学科的前沿问题;高科技领域的科研成果;人们比较关心的社会问题;人文方面的经典。由于阅读理解题的设置采用渐进式，即由简到难的方式，因此说明文是高考试卷中阅读理解题中相对比较难的，通常后置。三、说明文语义语言特点阅读理解试题的中要考点之一是考查学生对词汇和句式的掌握。说明文的词汇和句式的运用较别的体裁的文章难度更大。词汇运用灵活，同一词的不同词性的用法交替出现，未列入考纲的生词较多，通常达到了4-5%。不过考生可以通过说明文的语言特点来帮助理解语篇，例如，同位语、下定义、解释、举例、同义词、反义词、上下义词以及标点符号(如破折号、冒号都有表示解释和说明)等。四、高考英语对科
18、技说明文的要求要求考生读懂简易的英语文学作品，科普文章、公告，说明。广告以及书、报、杂志中关于一般性话题的简短文章并回答相关问题。考生应能：理解语篇主旨要义理解文中具体信息根据上下文提供的线索推测生词的词义根据文中事实和线索作出简单的判断和推理理解文章的宏观结构和文脉逻辑关系理解作者的观点、意图和态度根据所读，用恰当的词语补全文章提纲，概括主要内容或作关键词词语转换。五、高考说明文阅读及解题策略1.略读通过整体粗读，领略内容大意，帮助理解，为细读做准备。寻找主题句，获取大意，找出每段的主题。每一篇说明文通常都是围绕一个中心展开的。所以找出主题句，抓住中心，理解主题句与文章的具体事实细节的关系，
19、对文章进行整体理解，获取文章表达的正确信息。2.跳读寻找所需信息，如年代、数字、人名、地名等，把握住关键词，利用语法过渡词、语气转折词及时态等，抓住文章脉络。3.细读分段细读，注意细节，注意语言结构，抓住关键信息，解释文章结构的内在联系，帮助深化理解。一片文章就是一个有机的整体，段落与段落之间存在着内在的紧密联系，而每段的内容都与主题有着很重要的联系，所以弄清文章结构上的问题，对于把握文章主题，文章大意非常重要。3.1 主旨大意题寻找主题句往往是做好此类题的关键。每段的主题句(常在首句、尾句、首尾句、段落中和归纳分析)一般都用来表示一个段落的主旨大意。而整篇文章的主题句往往隐藏在首段或尾段。通
20、过上面的两道题我们可以看出这类题型在选择项中错误多以干扰项出现，干扰项多属文中某个具体事实或细节、从文中某些 (不完全的) 事实或细节片面推出的错误结论或者是非文章事实的主观臆断常见的提问形式：1. The main idea of the passage is _.2. Which of the following statements best summarizes the authors mainpoint?3. This paragraph centers/focuses on _.4. This passage is chiefly concerned with _.5. The a
21、uthors purpose in writing this passage is _.6. What is the best title of the passage?3.2 细节理解题该题型难度系数值最低并占阅读理解总数的50%左右。有关细节的问题常对文中某个词语、某句子、某段落等细节及事实进行提问，所提问题一般可直接或间接在文章中找到答案。最普遍的特征是题干中的某些词语和表达方式与原文的词语和表达方式相吻合，先读题，然后带着问题快速阅读短文，找出与问题有关的词语或句子，再对相关部分进行分析对比，找出答案。常见的提问形式：1. Which of the following is TRUE
22、( Not True) according to theinformation in the passage?2. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?3. The author mentions all the following except _.4. In the passage, the author states that _.5. 以when, where, who, what, how, why, how many/much等词引导的疑问句。4.推读推测未直接写明的含义、因果关系以及词义，学生可以根据上下文猜测在阅
23、读过程中遇到的新单词、新的表达法或语法。这样既提高了阅读的速度又形成了一种能力，这也是英语阅读的关键所在。4.1 词语猜测题常在词或短语之间有并列连词and或or，它们连接的两项内容在含义上是接近的或递进的。还有就是对单词进行同义解释中的生词用定语(从句)、表语甚至于用逗号、破折号等标点符号引出并加以解释说明。做题时尽快找到被测词的文中位置，认真研读上下文，根据整个句子的意思推断;可以根据标点符号猜测;也可以从被测词后的定语从句中或同位语从句中判断;可以通过构词法猜测词义;也可以通过文中的同义和反义词来猜测，可以通过上下文的信息词猜测词义。常见的提问形式：Theword could best
24、be replaced by _.Whichof the following is the closest in meaning to the word?Inthe paragraph, the word means (refers to) _.4. The underlined word is the closest in meaningto _.4.2 推理判断题考查学生由文章的字面信息推出未知信息或隐含信息的能力，根据文章提供的事实和线索，进行逻辑推理，推测作者未提到的事实或某事发生的可能性、作者的倾向或意图、文章的论调等。做题时不要脱离原文只凭自已的想象混乱推理或只凭常识推理;答案一定
25、在文章中找到依据或理由，分析材料所提供的全部事实。另外要重视文章的主旨，所选答案的内容一定不能脱离主题大意。六、说明文阅读的应试心态我们要树立一种观念，说明文阅读考察的是阅读能力、逻辑思维能力，而不是要求考生全面、系统、透彻弄懂相关的知识。基于此，我们在做说明文试题时，必须排除与选文相关的旧知识的影响，完全靠选文提供的信息作出正确的判断和选择。【例题精讲】：Doctors fighting malaria（疟疾）, one of the deadliest diseases on the planet, may soon have a new affordable weapon in thei
