I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!"

Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast as soon as my mother calls.

But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our bedroom could not wake him up.

I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!"

To find out whether bees（蜜蜂）can see colours, the following experiment is made. A round table is put in a garden, and on the table is a piece of blue cardboard（硬纸版）with a drop of syrup（糖浆）on it. After a short time, bees come to the syrup. The bees then fly to their hive（蜂房）and give the syrup to other bees in the hive. Then they return to the feeding-place which they have found. After a while, the blue cardboard with the syrup on it is taken away. Instead of this card, a blue card is now put on the left side of the first feeding-place and a red card to its right. These new cards have no syrup on them. Very soon bees arrive again, and fly straight to the blue card. None go to the red card.

Now satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.

Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.

阅读理解整体分析 选材 ①阅读材料通常在150~250词之间 ②选材广泛,具有浓厚的时代气息 ③阅读语段生动活泼,语句富子变化 命题原则 ①要求考生既能理解具体的事实,也能理解抽象的概念; ②要求考生既能理解文章的表层意思,也能理解文章的深层含义; ③要求考生既能理解某句、某段的意思,也能理解全篇的逻辑关系; 中考阅读理解的应试策略 在解答阅读理解题时,要根据如下步骤进行解题。 1.浏览问题明确要求 先了解文章后面所要解决的问题再去看文章,能使思路更加清晰,做到心中有数。 2.略读全文,了解梗概 略读就是在尽可能短的时间内把握文章或段落的内容,略读时要特别注意主题。 3.通读寻读猎取信息 寻读时可把与答题无关的内容一扫而过,而与答题有关的重要信息要认真读。 4逐条分析,对号入座 即把寻读时所获得的信息与答题要求结合起来,逐条进行分析,对号人座。 5.复读全文,验证答案 再次仔细阅读全文,进一步加深对文章的理解,核实所选内容是否正确。 阅读理解不同题型解题技巧 基于不同的考查目的,阅读理解题通常可分类为“细节理解题”“主且大意题”“词义猜测题”与“推理判断题”,不同的考查目的,会有不同的设题特点可使用不同的解题技巧。 一、细节理解题解题技巧 细节理解题主要是考查who, what, which, when, where等文章细节些细节理解题比较简单,只需浏览文中所叙述的事实或细节,就可以作答。 但一些细节理解题则需要通过语句的同义或反义转换来考查学生对英语的理解能力,对文中个别难词、关键词、词组或句子作出解释或需要对有关的上下文提供的语境和信息、甚至对整篇文章的内容建立准确、立体的理解和判断。这些题的难度较大解答细节理解题时,要先看题于,然后带着问题读文章。同学们做这类题时可以边读边做记号,加强阅读的针对性提高做题的准确率, 1.语义转换题一跳读查找法。语义转换题通常考查对某句话或某几包话的理解，可根据题干内容从原文中找到相关句子,然后进行比较和分析,并确定最佳答案运用跳读查找法时,要特别注意试题及其选项与原文之间的语义变换,如同义变换、概念解析、归纳事实等 2.生活应用题一常识理解法。生活应用题要求学生在读懂文章的基础上结合定的生活常识进行判断。但有些时候,一些常识性判断题,甚至只看题干,就可选出最佳答案。 3.细节排序题一首尾定位法。这种试题要求学生根据动作发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系,找出事件发生的正确顺序,做此类题时可采用“首尾定位第一个动作和最后一个动作,迅速缩小选择范围,从而快速选出正确答案 4.寻找值息题一干定位法。快速寻找信息题一般为功能阅读题,主要形式有广告、公告、演出信息、航班时间表、购物就餐等,做这类题时没有必要阅读全文,直采用“题干定位法,根据题干要求,直接从表格中查找相关信息

培养初中生的英语阅读能力

培养初中生的英语阅读能力 发表时间：2011-04-12T11:30:43.120Z 来源：《中学课程辅导·教学研究》2011年第8期供稿作者：魏瑜 [导读] 阅读作为获取语言文化知识、了解外部信息、提高语言能力的重要手段，是中学英语教学的侧重点。 摘要：探索英语阅读教学方法，培养学生阅读能力已成为英语教师共同关注和研究的课题。本文阐述了培养初中生英语阅读能力的重要性，并介绍了培养学生英语阅读能力的方法。 关键词：阅读兴趣；阅读技巧；阅读能力 作者简介：魏瑜，任教于江西省石城二中。 阅读作为获取语言文化知识、了解外部信息、提高语言能力的重要手段，是中学英语教学的侧重点。英语的阅读以能力为主，涉及学生的理解、综合和分析解决问题的能力。近年来，阅读更注重对技能和能力的考查，选材也更广泛，内容更丰富，与学生生活实际相联系。因此，探索培养学生英语阅读能力，提高学生阅读效率成为英语教师共同关注和研究的课题。 一、英语阅读能力的分析 阅读是一个积极主动地思考理解和接受信息的过程，也是一种复杂的智力活动。从表面看是读者感知书面文字理解文字所表达的内容，实际上它是作者与读者双方的语言交际活动，是一个读者实现心理满足的复杂的心理逻辑推理过程。在这过程中所表现出来的能力，被称为“阅读能力”。 二、培养初中生英语阅读能力的重要性 阅读能力是一种领会理解能力，是学生吸取知识，积累词汇，熟悉英语表达习惯的重要途径。阅读能力是英语四会能力中最基本最重要的能力之一。阅读不仅能帮助学生获取信息，开阔视野，吸收丰富的知识，了解英语国家的历史、地理、科技、社会文化、风土人情等，提高学生的学习兴趣，还能扩大词汇量，促进听、说、写的能力的发展。同时还能培养学生的思维能力、分析能力和理解能力，有效地提高学生运用语言的能力，为他们的终身学习和发展打下坚实的基础。新课标中明确提出要培养学生的观察、记忆、思维、想象能力和创新精神，帮助学生了解世界和中西方文化的差异，拓展视野，形成一定的综合语言运用能力。 既然阅读这么重要，那么我们就应该重视培养阅读能力，掌握提高阅读效率的方法就显得尤为重要了。笔者在本文中就个人的教学体会，谈谈提高初中生英语阅读能力的方法。 三、培养英语阅读能力的方法 1.培养英语阅读兴趣 兴趣就是动力。正如心理学家皮亚杰所说：“兴趣是能量的调节者，它的加入便产生了储存内心的力量。”对于阅读，学生也应该有一种浓厚的兴趣。那么，教师如何培养学生的阅读兴趣呢？笔者认为教师在培养学生的阅读能力的过程中，要根据“循序渐进、逐步提高”的原则来编选阅读材料。对于初中生，教师可以在平时收集一些幽默、笑话、谜语、谚语、成语小故事，加以精选改编。学生在饶有兴趣的阅读过程中，既不知不觉扩大了词汇量，获取了各方面的知识，又在阅读过程中体验到快乐。真正地让他们认识到阅读并非空洞乏味的活动，而是一种既可增长知识、又能令人愉快的活动。也真正做到了“为学所乐”，使学生自觉地克服阅读过程中产生的不良心理因素，从而以旺盛的精力、饱满的热情、进取的精神投入到阅读活动中去。 2.扩展英语文化背景知识 语言是文化的载体，语言与文化密切相关。如果学生缺乏一定的文化背景知识，即使能认识每一个单词，懂得每一个句子，也不一定能正确理解文章的含义。教师在教学中，一定要详细介绍教材中的有关社会文化背景的知识，让学生在一定的文化背景知识下理解课文。 3.训练英语阅读技巧 文章是由句子和段落组成的，句子与句子、段落与段落之间是彼此联系的。 在英语阅读教学中，教师要有意识地向学生传授阅读方法，训练阅读技能，培养学生自觉调整阅读速度和阅读方法的能力。阅读时眼中有词，心中揣意，把握命题原则——“大小猜判”（大—— 考察大意；小——细节辨别；猜——字词句意；判—— 推理判断）。教师要提高学生的阅读水平，就要分别用不用的方法来训练他们的阅读技巧，使学生形成良好的阅读习惯，提高阅读理解能力。主要阅读技巧有： (1)略读：通过整体粗读，领略内容大意,帮助理解，为细读作准备。在进行阅读课教学时要有意识地培养学生找出主题句，抓住中心，使学生理解主题句与文章的具体事实细节的关系，没有主题句的段落就引导学生依靠段落中的衔接、句际关系来分析、推断和概括段落的大意，从而达到整体理解的目的，获得文章表达的正确的信息。 (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，处理语言点，抓住主要事实,关键信息，揭示文章结构的内在联系，帮助深化理解。一篇文章是一个有机的整体，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。 (4)推读：推测未直接写明的含义、因果关系以及词义猜测，对学生在自学过程中遇到的新的单词、表达法或语法。引导学生学会根据上下文进行猜测，这样既提高了阅读速度又形成了一种能力，这也是英语阅读的关键所在。培养学生猜词的能力是我们在外语教学中十分重要而有意义的一个环节，但是若遇到了关键的词句且影响对文章的理解，则要提倡学生使用手中的工具书，自行查阅解决学习中遇到的困难。 (5)概读：要求学生从每篇标题,到各个部分都进行概读、以归纳出要点, 概括作者的主旨、意图、观点、态度，这样就能了解全文的概貌。概读还有助于学生把握上下文之间的意义联系,培养学生的综合概括能力，提高英语阅读的有效性。 4.培养阅读能力，形成良好阅读习惯 阅读是一个认知的过程，不同的人有不同的阅读方式。有的学生喜欢逐字逐句地读，有的喜欢一目十行地读，有的喜欢反复上下阅读。这些阅读方式都是影响学生阅读效果与水平提高的原因，因此，在英语阅读教学中教师应培养学生以下四种能力，以形成良好的阅读习惯。 (1)培养学生限时阅读的能力。限定阅读时间，进行限时阅读训练。限时阅读是训练速度的有效方法，让学生在规定的时间内读完材

浅论提高初中生英语阅读能力的方法

浅论提升初中生英语阅读水平的方法 我国义务教育《英语大纲》规定：按照语言学习规律，学生必须吸收相当数量的语言材料和经过一定量的语言实践，才能获得为交际使用英语的水平。所以，英语教学必须增加语言实践的量，使学生获得充分的语言实践机会。阅读是我国学生接触外语信息、参与外语实践的重要途径，因而提升阅读水平是培养语言综合使用水平的重要方式。阅读水平是英语“四会”水平中最基本、最重要的水平之一，培养阅读水平有助于扩大词汇量、丰富语言知识、提升语言的使用水平，是大面积提升中学英语教学质量的关键。 但在教学实践中，绝大部分学生害怕做阅读题，考试在阅读上减分也比较多，阅读水平弱。如何提升学生的英语阅读水平呢？我在十几年的英语教学中实行了以下尝试： 一、狠抓教材中阅读材料的语言积累和巩固，打好基础 在外语教学过程中，首先应该培养的水平是理解，即听力理解和阅读理解。听和阅读都是在往大脑中输入信息。外语学习过程中语言输入的量一定要大大多于输出的量，这样才能为表达思想的说和写的环节打下好基础。语言积累就成了关键，教师要重视学生对所学语言素材的有意识积累，最主要的是使学生积累一些对今后的学习最有用的语言素材。对学生教材里每单元的阅读文章我都非常重视，坚持让学生对课本语言材料理解、记忆和复习，并实行检查。因为语言材料的输入和巩固过程是一个反复刺激、持续加深印象的过程。

听得多，读得多，学生不但巩固了词法、句法和语法，而且阅读课外文章时能看懂了，促动了阅读理解水平水平的持续提升，这就达到了教者的最终目的。 二、采用任务型教学与阅读理解相结合的教学模式，设计有意义的语言实践活动，有助于学生更好地理解阅读材料 阅读是学生的有效学习过程，不是教师的自我表演，这是上好阅读课的基本标准。也就是说学生要有实实在在的学习。 在课堂上授课时教师的讲话最好不要超过20分钟，因为课堂是学生锻炼自己的地方，要多实践，让学生成为学习知识的主体，教师则起到引导的作用。 三、有计划地对学生实行科学、系统的课外阅读训练，扩大英语知识面，增加对英、美国家文化背景知识的了解 1、精心选材，引导学生留心积累各方面的知识。 阅读理解是中考测试中比重最大的题型。阅读文章题材多样，涉及政治、经济、社会文化、风俗习惯、历史地理、科学技术等各个方面；体裁形式丰富，包括记叙文、说明文、议论文、应用文以及新闻报道、广告、通知、操作说明、表格等。这就需要考生在平时对各个方面的知识都有所积累，广泛阅读，以适合中考的需要。为协助学生，我备课时会充分利用英文报刊杂志、网络媒体搜集文章，选择的材料富有时代感。我认为英语学习中的阅读材料应使学生感到有一定的难度，但不可让学生感到太难，一点都看不懂或绝大部分看不懂，这样就打消了学生学习的积极性，反而不利于学生的发展。

中考英语英语阅读理解精选附答案

中考英语英语阅读理解精选附答案 一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷 1．阅读理解 Earlier this year, China achieved a new milestone (里程碑) in space research. On January 3, 2019, Chang'e-4 became the first lunar probe (月球探测器) in history to successfully land on the far side of the moon. The Earth's gravity (重力) slows the moon's rotation (自转), matching it to the speed of its orbit (公转). Therefore, the far side of the moon is almost "dark" and has never been seen. It's this sense of the unknown that makes the far side of the moon such an interesting place for scientific and space research. Being blown by solar (太阳的) winds, the far side may have the special minerals (矿物质). For this reason, Chang'e-4 will study the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface and any mineral found by the spacecraft. Chang'e-4 is also carrying flower seeds, potatoes and silkworm eggs to see whether life is possible on the moon. If it is, then the moon will become a possible choice for space travel in the future. However, research of the "dark" side isn't easy. As the far side is blocked(阻断) off from us, radio noise coming off Earth is also blocked. This is why China's relay satellite (中继卫星) Queqiao was sent up in May, 2018. Thanks to Queqiao, the communication problem between Earth and Chang'e-4 has been well solved. Power supply (电源供应) is also a challenge to the task. Chang'e-4 gets energy from the sun through its solar panels. As we know, a lunar day has the length (长度) of 28 Earth days. After Chang'e-4 was sent up on December 8, 2018, it took the probe over 20 days to orbit the moon to be in a position to be able to land in moon daylight and use its solar panels. Luckily, everything goes well, Chang'e-4 has worked on the "dark" side for over 5 months. It has sent back many photos of the far side of the moon and has been used to carry out some scientific experiments. The New York Times used the word "groundbreaking" to praise the task and wrote that "it will offer help to the history and development of the moon". （1）When was Chang'e-4 sent up? A. In May, 2018. B. On December 8, 2018. C. On January 3, 2019.

浅谈初中生英语阅读能力的培养

浅谈初中生英语阅读能力的培养 慈溪实验中学南专库 [摘要]初中英语学习的主要任务之一就是培养学生的基本阅读能力。但在教学过程中学生在阅读方面的训练量比较少，训练材料方面存在很多问题；学生缺少正确的阅读方 法知道。这就要求教师一方面教会学生正确的阅读方法和技巧；另一方面扩大阅读 面，增加阅读量，指导学生有目的地阅读，在训练中提高学生的阅读能力。 [关键词]阅读能力阅读技巧语篇意群 培养学生的英语阅读能力是初中英语教学的主要内容之一，其目的就在于培养和提高初中学生的英语阅读速度和理解能力。通过阅读，学生们可以广泛地接触到各种有用的知识，开阔眼界，增长才干；只有通过阅读，学生们才会在掌握 大量词汇、句型基础上提高学习英语、使用英语的兴趣。所以，Geoffrey Broughtow 说：一个人学外语，如果不能直接到外国环境中去学习时，唯一的途径就是阅读。（转引自杨秀珍的文章，见《英语研究论》第一集P88）由此可见，阅读在英语学习中的作用非同一般。教师应从以下两个方面培养学生的阅读能力。 一、指导学生大量阅读 初中学生的英语基础比较薄弱，英语阅读在老师的指导下才容易取得很好的 效果。首先，要严格要求学生精读教材内容，争取全部熟练地朗读和背诵重点句 型和课文，从而形成良好的语感，做到脱口而出。美国著名的语言学家帕默认为：学习语言是学习的一种的技艺（art）而不是科学（science）。这就要求我们在阅读教学中，把主要注意力放在培养言语的熟巧和技艺上，模仿、重复、多读、多 讲、多练。其次，应注意指导学生广泛阅读面向初中学生、并且与教材阅读篇章 难易程度相当或略低于教材阅读内容难易程度的课外读物，以强化和提高学生的阅读兴趣和能力。爱因斯坦说过：“兴趣和爱好是获得知识的动力。要让学生在 阅读成功的喜悦中增加学习英语的兴趣。第三，要特别注意指导学生循序渐进地 阅读，千万不要急于求成，不要贪读阅读难度过大的读物，以免劳而无功或挫伤学生阅读的积极性。在教学实践中，牛津出版社的“书虫（Bookworm）”系列读物就是很好的辅助用书，学生既可以读到有趣的故事，又可以学到知识，提高阅读能力。 二、学习掌握正确的阅读方法 教师应通过课文预习提问、讲解课文或重点句型，指导学生做阅读训练等， 教会学生正确、实用的阅读方法，提高学生的阅读效果。授人以鱼，莫如授人以 渔。美国匹兹堡大学的William E Norris 认为，“不管怎么样，既然我们的学生 是有文化的，那么他们就不必去学习阅读的过程，而是要练习阅读外语-----英语的技巧。”（见马俊明等译《英语教师的艺术》P277）具体地说：一是要让学生学会特别注意阅读篇章中的人物（who）、时间（when）、地点（where）、事件（what）、数字（numbers）等关键词语，以提高阅读的目标性和效能；二是要训练学生学 会默读阅读材料，克服出声读的不良习惯，以提高阅读速度。学生阅读时，习惯 发出每个单词的音，即出声读，有时也表现在无意识的喉头蠕动。任何一种都会
