第17講閱讀理解之記敘文1．了解記敘文的解題方法與技巧。2．進(jìn)行記敘文真題訓(xùn)練。記敘文講述的是發(fā)生在當(dāng)前或過去或?qū)硎虑榈慕?jīng)過。簡而言之，記敘文就是講故事，包括人物或故事情節(jié)。常見的記敘文根據(jù)其用途可分為文學(xué)記敘文和說明記敘文：文學(xué)記敘文以虛構(gòu)為主，如趣聞逸事、傳說、寓言、傳奇故事、短篇小說、科幻小說等；說明記敘文以事實為依據(jù)，包括歷史、傳記、新聞報道、日記等。從命題形式上看，常見的有細(xì)節(jié)理解、詞義猜測、主旨大意、推理判斷、作者意圖等題型。除了推論或詞義辨識題，記敘文命題的順序一般都會按照文章的脈絡(luò)和故事發(fā)展的順序?qū)訉油七M(jìn)，否則就會覺得別扭，邏輯不通。同時，記敘文需要事件的發(fā)展過程作支撐，一半以上的題目都會用來檢測考生對故事的了解，因此，我們必須弄明白整件事情的發(fā)展脈絡(luò)。而其余像主旨大意、作者意圖之類的題目，則取決于文章的落句，集中考查對作者所發(fā)的感觸的理解?？傊?，細(xì)節(jié)題是記敘文命題的主流題型。而寓意之類的題則是高一層次的題，有一定的難度和區(qū)分度，它們是拉開距離的題，答對了這些題，你才有可能成功地躋身高分之列。解題技巧要解答好記敘文閱讀理解題，就應(yīng)該有一套針對性強的方法和技巧。下面是我們在閱讀教學(xué)中積累下來的一點心得體會，希望能對大家有所幫助。1.關(guān)注細(xì)節(jié)

記敘文中有大量的事件發(fā)展過程中的細(xì)節(jié)，包括記敘文的5W（what,who,when,where,why）要素。因此我們作答細(xì)節(jié)題的時候，就沒有那么復(fù)雜，一般只需要由前到后，從上到下，一題一題地做就可以了。

2.注重聯(lián)系

在做題過程中，我們大都不能在文中找到與題干一字不差的詞語或句子。這時我們需要認(rèn)真研究問題，抓住題干中的關(guān)鍵詞語，然后到文中準(zhǔn)確地找到與之相關(guān)的語句，或是疑似語句的位置，接著去左顧，或右盼，在前句或后句尋找線索。

3.讀懂表象

如前所述，主旨大意題或推理判斷、作者意圖題等實際上是同一類型的問題，或者說是可用同種方法解答的題型。在解答此類題目的時候，不可被題干的表象所迷惑，要像剝洋蔥一樣，一層一層地剝；在四個可選項中，一個一個地去證實，去排除。特別是解答推論或暗指類的題目，比如“Whatcanbeinferredfrom…?”或是Whatdoestheauthorimplyin…?”之類的題目，文中所陳述的往往不是答案。我們要在文前文后去查找，在字里行間里去尋覓。有時還少不了借助自己的生活經(jīng)驗和常理來體會這言外之意。

4.挖掘意義

每年的高考閱讀題中，特別是記敘文的閱讀題，都會出現(xiàn)一至兩道詞義猜測題。而這些詞匯往往是你素昧平生的，或者和你有點頭之交，在文中卻另有新意的，總之，猜的是那些在高考詞匯表要求之外的詞匯。小小的一個詞，一個短語，考核的不是你的語法的熟練程度，也不是你的記憶力，而是你對文章通篇或者一個段落的整體把握和變通能力。（2023春·湖南郴州·高二嘉禾縣第一中學(xué)?？茧A段練習(xí)）OneofthemosttouchingstoriesofOlympictriumph(成就)—oneyoumightneverhaveheardbefore—isthatofweightliftingchampionOscarFigueroa.Overthecourseofhisathleticcareer,the40-year-oldhashadthechancetocompeteintheOlympicGamesfourdifferenttimes.Thosecompetitionscameplentyofheartbreakanddisappointment,beforehefinallygothisvictory.Inthe2004OlympicGames,Figueroa’sfirstappearance,hehadaless-than-perfectperformancebutwasstillabletoswingafifth-placefinish.Helookedforwardtothe2008BeijingOlympicGamesasawaytoredeemhimself.Unfortunately,justtwoweeksbeforethebigevent,heendedupwithahandinjury.ThisinjurysethimbackseverelyinhisweightliftingandendedupcostinghimthecompetitionBytheLondonOlympicGamesin2012,Figueroacamebackreadierthanever.Hehadanincrediblerunthatyearandtookhomethesilvermedal.Butinspiteofallhe’dalreadyexperienced,hestillaimedhigher.In2016,heheadedtoRiotoearnthehighestprize—andclaimthatprizehedid!Afterhisfinallift,knowingjusthowincrediblehisperformancehadbeen,Figueroafelltothegroundintears.Inafewmoments,hetookoffhisshoesandputthemorthestage,symbolizinghisdecisiontofinallyretirefromhistimeasanOlympian.Amazinglyenough,hetookhomethegoldthatyear!Nomatterhowhardhefell,henevergaveup,servingasapowerfulexampleofhope,perseverance,anddetermination.Now,hecanofficiallysayheisthefirstColombianmantohaveevertakenhomethegoldinhiscategory.“IwassolowinBeijing,andIamsohighhere,”hetoldIWFatthe2016Olympics.”It’s22yearssinceIstartedandnowisthetimetoretire...ButIamfullofemotion—it’sasthoughIwasliftingforthewholecountry,andthosetearswereforallofColombia.”1．Whichcanreplacetheunderlinedword“redeem”inparagraph2?A．forgive B．thank C．prove D．a(chǎn)bandon2．WhendidFigueroawinthegoldmedal?A．In2004 B．In2016 C．In2008.
