英语阅读理解长难句的处理技巧

一个英语句子之所以难以理解,有许多原因,其中一个主要原因是句子太长或者句子结构复杂。句子过长或者复杂无非是该句除了主干之外还包含了一些附加部分,如插入语、同位语、分隔现象、各种从句或较长的非谓语动词短语等等。这些附属成分常有逗号或分隔符号与句子隔开,且插在一个句子中间,使本来完整的句子被断开,因而增加句意理解的难度。分析长难句的基本方法是:首先,判断该句是简单句、并列句还是复合句;然后,找出句子的核心成分,分清主语和谓语,再分清句子附属成分。下面我们来谈谈几种长难句的处理技巧。

一、处理长难句的原则方法

如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的单句,可这样处理:跳读修饰成分,迅速找出主谓结构。这样一来,我们便可以将长句化为短句,将难句化为易句。具体步骤是:先跳读修饰成分或附加成分,找出句子的主干并理解其意义;然后再分段理解修饰成分或附加成分。

如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的并列句,可这样处理:先找出其中的并列连词,然后再根据并列连词的意思理清句子前后是顺连关系还是反连关系,是因果关系还是转折关系等,最后再根据不同的语境关系正确理解句意。

如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的主从复合句,可这样处理:先分清主句与从句,然后弄清从句的性质,即弄清它是什么从句。

如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的主从复合句,可这样处理:先分清主句与从句,然后弄清名词性从句,还是状语从句,或是定语从句。注意,弄清从句性质对于理解复合句的意思至关重要。

另外,有一点要提醒同学们,在处理长难句时,如果既能正确理解句意,又能将其准确地译成中文,那是最好了。但是,对于有些长难句,要在较短时间内(如在参加考试时)将其译成中文比较困难,此时只要能正确理解其意思就行了,如果硬要勉为其难地译成中文,不仅会浪费时间,而且在许多情况也没有必要。

二、经典高考真题实例分析

下面这篇文章共有194个单词,却只有9个句子,平均每个句子大约有22个单词,是近几年高考英语阅读理解中一篇比较典型的集中含有长难句的文章。

A 38-square-mile island, is the farthest inhabited island in the world, acc ording to the Guinness Book of Records. It is 1,510 miles southwest of its near est neighbor St. Helena, and 1,950 miles west of Africa. Discovered by the Port uguese admiral(葡萄牙海军上将) of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, t he island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred. Comin

g in a close second——and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant island——is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles east of its nearest neighbour, Pitca irn Island, and 2,300 miles west of South America. The mountainous 64-square-mi le island was settled around the 5th century, supposedly by people who were los t at sea. They had no connection with the outside world for more than a thousan d years, giving them plenty of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moai, for which the island is most famous.On Easter Sunday, 1722, howev er, settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name. Today, 2,000 p eople live on the Chilean territory(智利领土). They share one street, a small a irport and a few hours of television per day.

Surfing: It’ s Not Just fo r Boys Anymore

If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who would answer: surfing(冲浪运动). But isn’ t that a boy thing? Some people 36 . Most certainly not.

I started surfing about five years ago and fell in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first 37 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.

When I try to 38 surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my

life ,there’ s nothing like it. It involves (牵涉到)body, mind and soul. There’ s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all 39 us. The feeling I get when I’ m surfing across that 40 , becoming one with the 41 , is like I’ m weightless.

The one thing I can 42 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge(挑战). You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean offers an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的)and 43 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 44 from any other sport.

I’ ve tried to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’ t think girls can do. It’ s part of being human to advance to new levels, so shouldn’ t it be expected that girls should step up and start 45 the limits of things boys and men used to dominate (主宰)?

There’ re women 46 side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys on the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to 47, and they will.

36. A. wonder B. understand C. reply D. believe

37. A. wave B. storm C. sail D. boat

38. A. bring B. connect C. compare D. tie

39. A. along B. above C. around D. by

40. A. beach B. water C. board D. lake

41. A. sky B. world C. earth D. ocean

42. A. take B. get C. make D. keep

43. A. sharp B. great C. hard D. calm

44. A. known B. right C. far D. different

45. A. reaching B. accepting C. pushing D. setting

46. A. sitting B. walking C. fighting D. working

47. A. think B. succeed C. perform D. feel

SECTION C(12 marks)

Directions:Complete the following passage by using ONE word that best fits the context.

Mr. Smith used to be in prison for three years, which may have you think he is not a good man. But 48 _ a matter of fact, he is kind-hearted as well as honest. The reason 49 he was put into prison was not that he himself broke the law, 50 that his six-year-old son blew up(使…爆炸)the bridge near his home, imitating what he had seen on TV. 51 this little boy did break the law, he was too young to be put in prison. According ____52___ the local law, the boy’s parents had to be punished. As a result, Mr. Smith received the punishment. He was arrested and taken to the police station finally. Most of the people in the town showed pity on him, but it was useless. After all, law is law. Everybody is to obey 53. As the proverb of “When it rains, it pours”, Mrs. Smith was out of wor k before long. She had to move to a southern state,54 she was born and grew up. Misfortunes tell us what fortune is. 55 the Smiths have experienced does teach us a good lesson.

Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes yo u’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes,and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.

Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.

The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.

It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.

The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!

61.You need to build a positive self-image when you .

A. dare to challenge yourself

B. feel it hard to change yourself

C. are unconfident about yourself

D. have a high opinion of yourself

62.According to the passage, our self-images .

A. have positive effects

B. are probably untrue

C. are often changeable

D. have different functions

63.How should you change your self-image according to the passage?

A. To keep a different image of others.

B. To make your life successful.

C. To understand your own world.

D. To change the way you think.

64.What is the passage mainly about?

A.How to prepare for your success.

B.How to face challenges in your life.

C.How to build a positive self-image.

D.How to develop you good qualities.

A young boy was sitting in the back seat of the car eating an apple. He asked his father, “Why does my apple turn brown?” his father answered, “When the skin is removed, air reaches the flesh of the apple and causes oxidation (氧化). This changes the apple’s molecular(分子的) structure and results in a brownish color.” The boy asked, “ Daddy, what are you talking about?”

I know how that boy feels. Sometimes I want answers to some of those confusing questions that we all meet with, such as how to get through difficult times or what to do in a tough situation.

I just want to get it right.

The problem is that I don’t always have the answer I need. Nobody else seems to have them, either. So I go on making mistakes and think that I’ll neve r get it right.

Often I didn’t know what to do. I often made poor choices, but I gradually improved. Then I realized that I don’t HA VE TO always get it right. I don’t have to always know what to do all the time. All I really need to do is try my best, learn from my mistakes and go on.

Dr. Leo Buscaglia once said, “ No one gets out of this world alive, so the t me to live, learn, care, share, celebrate and love is now. That would be pretty hard to do when you’re waiting for all the answers first.”

So you got it wrong. You made a mistake. So what should you do next? Forgive yourself and try again. You may not get out of this world alive, but you can get plenty of life out of this world if you are not too worried about always getting it right.

PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)

SECTION A (10 marks)

Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORKS for each answer.

Teamwork is the process of a group of people working together in order to achieve a goal. It is an essential part of any business.

First and the most important, a team must have been communicated to them a clear goal to work towards. Poor communication may lead to unsatisfactory results. A strong team will also include a mixture of people, with different academic backgrounds and skills. The team must be able to talk openly and honestly to each other, sharing ideas and making suggestions while listening to and understanding what others have to say.

While many employees are able to perform important functions on their own, working as a team brings a wide range of talents and resources to a project that would be almost impossible for just one person to match. Ideas on the project itself and how to achieve its goals can be exchanged, and new points of view voiced, which would be difficult to achieve with just one person, who may be firmly fixed on one perspective (思考方法),thus lowering the quality of the results.

Because a team is a group of people, each with their own opinions and personalities, conflicts can and do arise. If not acted upon swiftly and effectively, this can lower morale (士气) in the team and reduce productivity, affecting the quality of results achieved. A team can also take longer than an individual to achieve a goal, as organizing a team often requires considerable preparation.

Having a good team working on a project ensures that the task will be dealt with thoroughly and this means the goal will be achieved with a very high quality. A good team will also create trust and confidence, both in themselves and one another. And this will benefit both the individuals and the company

SECTION B (10 marks)

Directions:Read the following passage.Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit:Write your answers on your answer sheet.

Playing is serous business for children. In fact, it’s what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say, “Because it’s fun!” But it’s much more than that. It’s also good for them.

Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get know their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly colored toys and clothing help develop a baby’s sense of sight.

When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions.

Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination. Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech toy. That’s because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be.

Crayons, paints and Play-Doh(彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to crate. Traditional building blocks teach important pre-math skills like problem-solving.

Playing doesn’t become any less important once children start school. Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules.

教你“五个绝招”破解英语阅读理解 阅读是增长知识获取信息的主要途径,阅读能力是英语教学的重点。近年来,注重对初中生阅读理解能力的考核已成为中考的一大趋势。阅读理解能力影响并制约听、说、读、写能力的形成和发展,中学英语教学大纲也把培养阅读能力作为一个主要的教学目标。要做好阅读理解,应从以下几方面入手。 分门别类识别文体 随着信息时代的到来,阅读内容更趋于信息化、时代化,突破了单一的故事、寓言等题材,内容涉及新闻、广告、科普、医疗、教育等,文章的体裁也从记叙扩大到产品说明、逻辑推理及实际应用等文体。不同的文体阅读的要求与方法不尽相同。 记叙文阅读主要抓四大要素,即时间、地点、人物和事件的起因、发展和结果,以及人物之间的关系、表现,从中分析他们思想品质、性格特征等;议论文是阐明作者对人或事的好坏的立场观点,因此在阅读时必须正确把握文章的论点和论据,理清论证思路,再进行逻辑推理得出结论;应用文是最贴近日常生活的文体,它包括通知、广告、便条、申请书、个人简历,形式多样,题材各异,如图示、表格、地址、网址等,对这类文体的阅读应简明扼要地抓住所需信息,理解文章内容。 统览全篇摘录要点 阅读理解是对整个文章的目的、意图、观点、立场、态度以及内在的逻辑关系的理解,而不是断章取义的一孔之见,所以统览全篇和问题是很有必要的,这些问题会给你提供信息或暗示文章中的一些重要细节。 如2002年本市中考试卷C篇阅读并回答问题中,通过对全篇的布局谋篇以及问题的设置看到的不是片言只语,而从中感悟到人文思想的体现,人类和自然界生态相辅相成的关系,从而得出第6小题:From the passage,we learn that___.答案为B: The rainforest people have done some- thing to protect their home. 在统览全篇的同时要注意要点的摘录,因为一些显性的答案是可以从要点中直接回答,而隐性的答案则是要通过对全篇的理解才能得出。统览全篇,摘录要点亦有利于检查时节省时间。 开动脑筋推测词意 初中英语学科教学基本要求规定,学生能根据上下文推测词义,并能不借助词典读懂含有3%生词的语言材料,换言之,这就是促使学生的知识内化的过程,学生要通过知识内化将内隐的心理活动转换为外显的行为,可以借助以下的几种方法完成内化过程: 根据上下文猜测词意 如闸北区2003年中考模拟题,阅读B篇中p assed away,根据上文的An illness had kept the boy home和下文写给Rick的信中可以猜测出意为“去世”。 根据构词法猜测词意

英语阅读理解解题技巧

英语阅读理解解题技巧-解题步骤 在做阅读理解时,可遵循三部曲的原则,即:快速阅读短文;认真逐题作答;复查校对答案。 第一步,快速阅读短文;通读测试题,明确考查点。 先读题,明确题目要求,弄清考点,然后带着问题去读文章,这种方法在英语中称为scanning,就是寻读。快速阅读一遍弄清段落大意,对全文有一个整体了解,阅读时从宏观入手,掌握中心意思,注意哪些用以说明中心意思的主要事实和细节,抓住关键词,弄清作者写此篇文章的目的及意图。如遇到生词,应先跳过,继续通读全文,切忌长时间死扣生词,因为有些生词并不影响对全文的理解,还有一些词可以通过上下文推测含义。 第二步,认真逐题作答。 看完短文后,对整篇短文的内容有了大致的了解,然后马上看后面的问题,带着问题去找答案。如果属于客观信息题,就可直接在短文中找到出处。如果是主观判断题,则应迅速再读全文,仔细分析思考,将近似的答案对照原文反复比较,推敲,选出最佳答案。 第三步,仔细校对所选答案。 做完所有题目后,再读一遍短文,逐一检查所有答案是否有误。如果有拿不定主意的答案,不要随意更改。一定要从原文中找到依据,方可更正。 -阅读技巧 ①要快速浏览全文,掌握主旨和大意,特别注意文章的主题句,理出作者的写作思路。(What is the idea?What are facts?)

②要尽快浏览课文后的思考题,尽量带着问题读; ③完成事实细节题时,要找到定位句; ④要把有关WHO,WHAT,WHERE,HOW和WHY等方面内容用笔圈画出来。 ⑤遇到推理判断题时,要注意作者的态度和命题人的意图,不可从个人的经验出发。 “做英语阅读理解时,答题也有讲究。如果同学们具备一定的答题技巧,那么最终将事半功倍。”王老师说,做猜测词义题、细节理解题、主旨归纳题、推理判断题都有一定的技巧。 英语阅读理解解题技巧一、猜测词义题 阅读理解经常会遇到生词,这些生词怎么解决呢?这就需要一些猜词的技巧。 (一)根据生活常识猜测词义 Children are always boasting.They say things like“My Dad's car is bigger than your Dad's,”“My Mom is smarter than yours.”and“My family has more money than yours.” The word“boasting” means __B___ A.骄傲 B.吹牛 C.顽皮 D.幼稚 Many plants and animals are going extinct.Mammoths,which are related(有关联的) with Asia elephants,are now extinct.There are no mammoths in the world today. 1.A mammoth is a kind of _C___. A.plant B.bird C.animal D.tree 2.The word extinct means _C_ A.出现 B.危险 C.灭绝

实例教你学会分析长难句,高中英语阅读理解满分必备!

在阅读中,尤其是在试卷阅读理解C、D篇中,长难句是必然会出现的,而对长难句的理解会直接影响我们的阅读成绩。那么,一定的长难句分析训练是必须的,具体该怎么做呢?老师分享一些示例来帮助大家学会分析长难句! 01 For example, adolescent boys are more likely to buy computer games than any other group, so it makes sense to make computer game ads that appeal to this group. 【句式翻译】例如,进入青春期的男孩子就可能比任何其他人群更愿意购买电脑游戏,因此,针对这个目标群体制作有吸引力的电脑游戏广告是有意义的。 【句式分析】本句是一个含有so引导表示结果的复合句,同时又含有一个than引导的比较状语从句。 【词语点拨】 1)likely adj. 可能的,常用于句型:sb/sth be likely to do= it is likely that…可能…… He’s very likely to send me an email tonight.=It’s very likely that he’ll send me an email tonight. 很可能他今晚会给我发电子邮件。 2) make sense 有意义;讲得通;make sense of 理解 I can’t follow these instructions -- they don’tmake sense.

我不理解这些指示--根本讲不通嘛。 We read the sentence through, but could not make sense of it. 我们我们把句子看了一遍, 但不明白它说些什么。 3) appeal to 吸引; appeal to sb. for sth/appeal to sb. to do sth 呼吁某人干某事;求助于 Blue and red appeal to me, but I don’t like gray or yellow. 我喜欢蓝色和红色, 而不喜欢灰色或黄色。 Jack sincerely appealed to his friends to support him. 杰克真切地向朋友请求支持。 We can appeal to the website for the information we need. 我们可以在网上查找我们需要的信息。 【语法点拨】本句中的than any other…,意为“比其他任何一个……”,所谈论的对象在比较的范围之内;若不在范围之内,则不用other。如: China is larger than any other country in Asia. 中国比亚洲任何别的国家都大。 China is larger than any country in Africa. 中国比非洲的任何国家都大。 02

高考英语阅读理解长难句的处理技巧

高考英语阅读理解长难句的处理技 巧 高考英语考试的关键在与理解,很多学生在长难句理解方面有所欠缺,下面就是给大家带来的高考英语阅读理解长难句的处理技巧,希望大家喜欢! 一、处理长难句的原则方法 如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的单句,可这样处理:跳读修饰成分,迅速找出主谓结构。这样一来,我们便可以将长句化为短句,将难句化为易句。具体步骤是:先跳读修饰成分或附加成分,找出句子的主干并理解其意义;然后再分段理解修饰成分或附加成分。 如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的并列句,可这样处理:先找出其中的并列连词,然后再根据并列连词的意思理清句子前后是顺连关系还是反连关系,是因果关系还是转折关系等,最后再根据不同的语境关系正确理解句意。 如果待处理的长难句为一个复杂的主从复合句,可这样处理:先分清主句与从句,然后弄清从句的性质,即弄清它是什么

从句——名词性从句,还是状语从句,或是定语从句。注意,弄清从句性质对于理解复合句的意思至关重要。 另外,有一点要提醒同学们,在处理长难句时,如果既能正确理解句意,又能将其准确地译成中文,那是最好了。但是,对于有些长难句,要在较短时间内(如在参加考试时)将其译成中文比较困难,此时只要能正确理解其意思就行了,如果硬要勉为其难地译成中文,不仅会浪费时间,而且在许多情况也没有必要。 二、经典高考真题实例分析 下面这篇*共有194个单词,却只有9个句子,平均每个句子大约有22个单词,是近几年高考英语阅读理解中一篇比较典型的集中含有长难句的*。*内容如下: Tristan da Cunha, a 38-square-mile island, is the farthest inhabited island in the world, according to the Guinness Book of Records. It is 1,510 miles southwest of its nearest neighbor St. Helena, and 1,950 miles west of Africa. Discovered by the Portuguese admiral(葡萄牙海军上将) of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, the island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred. Coming in a close second——and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant island——is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles

阅读理解长句处理技巧

如何处理英语阅读理解中长句 在英语的阅读理解当中长句是让我们感到很困难的句子,长句的明显特点就是句子比较长,一个句子往往有三、四行,甚至一个句子就是一段。许多应试者在阅读时经常会陷入一个很长的句子中,不知道它到底讲了些什么。长句之所以长,主要有几个原因,为此本文将告诉你如何处理这些长句,让你们轻松应对英语四六级考试。 1、从句多又长: 一个主句带多个从句,从句中又有从句。应对方法:首先找到主句的主体部分(即主语、谓语和宾语),再确定从句的主体部分,如果从句中还有从句,在确定下面一层从句的主、谓、宾。注意阅读时一层一层进行,先把同一层次的内容看完,再看下一层次的内容。 例如:阅读文章中有这样一句话:“A survey of new stories in 1996 reveals that the antiscience tag has been attached to many other groups as well, from authorities who advocated the elimination of the last remaining stocks of smallpox virus to Republicans who advocated decreased funding for basic research。” 这句话就是在that引导的宾语从句中,又套入了两个who引导的定语从句。这个句子主句的主体是a survey reveals that…。从句的结构比较复杂:主语是the antiscience tag (反科学的标签),谓语是has been attached to(被贴到),宾语是many other groups,后面用了一个from sb. who…to sb. who…的结构来举例解释这些groups包括什么人。这句话的意思是“1996年进行的一次对新书的调查显示,“反科学”的标签也被贴在了很多别的人群的身上,包括提倡根除残余的天花病毒的权威机构,以及提倡削减基础科学研究资金的民主党人。” 2、长长的插入成分 阅读理解所选文章的一大特点就是喜欢用插入语,比如,用插入语交代某句话是谁说的,说话人是什么身份;或是用插入语来修饰、解释、补充前面的内容等等。插入语使作者能更灵活地表达自己的意思,但是插入语过长或是过多容易使读者找不到阅读的重点。从形式上看,插入语的出现有明显标志:用双破折号与主句隔开或者用双逗号与主句隔开。应对方法:读句子时,先不要理会插入语,先把主句的意思看完。然后再看插入部分。 例如:一篇阅读文章中有这样一句话:“Today, stepladders carry labels several inches long that warn, among other things, that you might — surprise! — fall off. ”

高中英语阅读英语长难句分析方法

高中英语阅读英语长难句分析方法 在阅读中,我们经常会遇到一些长而难的句子。长难句通常含有较多、较长的修饰成分、并列成分或从句。长难句的丰富内容和复杂结构往往会导致理解的困难。理解长难句的关键是了解长难句的类型,理清句子成分,抓住句子中的关键部分。 一、长难句的分类 1、带有较多成分的简单句。如: Having chosen family television programs and women’s magazines,the toothpaste marketer,for instance,must select the exact television programs and stations as well as the specific women’s magazines to be used. 例如,决定选择家庭电视节目和妇女杂志后,牙膏经销商还必须挑选出要用的确切的电视节目和电视台,以及那些具体的妇女杂志。 在这个有30多个词的简单句中,动词-ing形式短语用作时间状语,不定式to be used修饰的不仅是women’s magazine,而且还修饰television programs and stations. exact television同时修饰programs和stations两个词,这在翻译中可以看出来。插入语for instance把主语和谓语分隔开了。 2、含有多个简单句的并列句。如: In the 1970s he was a surgeon at Yale,had a wonderful wife and five beautiful children,but he was terribly unhappy.在20世纪70年代,他在耶鲁当外科医生,有位出色的太太和5个漂亮的孩子,但他那时过得却很不开心。 在第二个并列句中,即在had前面省略了and he. Discrimination(歧视) isn’t their only concern;almost everyone testing positive for the Huntington’s gene(基因) develops symptoms(症状) during middle age, and doctors can do nothing to help. 担心受到歧视并不是他们唯一的忧虑,几乎所有遗传性亨廷顿病基因检测呈阳性的人在中年时症状都会显现出来,而医生对此却无能为力。 三个分句均为简单句,分别用分号和and连接。 3、含有多个从句的复合句。如: I can’t live in fear of the possibility that as the earth’s population grows and we use more and more of our nonrenewable(不能再生的) resources,our

高考英语阅读长难句分析教学内容

精品文档 高考英语阅读理解长难句分析详解 吉林市第一中学孙家宁 一、找谓语,定主语 一般情况下,一个谓语形式的动词对应其动作的发出者(主语),我们可以根据谓语动词的意义来确定其主语。而且,如果一个句子中出现两个或两个以上的谓语形式的动词,则该句可以是并列句或复合句(并列谓语动词的情况除外)。如:Declaring that he was opposed to using this unusual animal husbandry technique to clone humans,he ordered that federal funds not be used for such an experiment -although no one had proposed to do so and asked an independent panel of experts chaired by Princeton President Harold Shapiro to report back to the White House in 90 days with recommendations for a national policy on human cloning. [简析]此句中的谓语形式的动词及其对应的主语有:was opposed-he,ordered-he,(should)not be used-federal-funds,had proposed-no one,asked-he(asked前面有and,说明asked 与前面某个谓语动词并列,根据逻辑意义asked应与ordered并列)。这一句的主干为“he ordered...and asked...”,“Declaring that...”作状语。句意:他宣布自己反对使用这种非同寻常的畜牧繁殖技术来克隆人类,并下令不准联邦政府基金用于做此类试验——尽管还没有人建议这么做——他还请一个普林斯顿大学校长Harold Shapiro为首的独立专家组在90天内向白宫汇报关于制定有关克隆人的国家政策的建议。 二、提主干,去枝叶(从句等) 一般情况下,一个句子中的主句所表达的信息为主要信息,从句所表达的信息为次要信息。若句子的主干提炼不出来,就不能完全把握句子的核心意义,从而导致思维混乱,主次不分。如:First put forward by the French mathematician Pierre de Format in the 17th century,the theorem had baffled and beaten the finest mathematical minds,including a French woman scientist who made a major advance in working out the problem,and who had to dress like a man in order to be able to study at the Eco-lab Polytechnique. [简析]本句夹杂分词短语、动名词及两个定语从句。“First put forward by the French mathematician Pierre de Format in the 17th century”为过去分词短语作状语;“including...”为介词短语作状语;“who made...and who had to...”为两个并列的定语从句,修饰a French woman scientist。所以句子的主干为the theorem had baffled and beaten the finest mathematical minds此为主要信息。句意:这个定理,先是由十七世纪法国数学家Pierre de Format提出,曾使一批杰出的数学大师为难,其中包括一个法国女科学家,她在解决这个难题方面取得了重大的进展。为了能够在Ecolab Polytechnipue理工学院学习她曾女扮男装。 三、寻关联,辨逻辑 一些长句其实是由若干分句组成的并列句或复合句。而这些并列句或复合句之间需要一些关联词来连接。如果我们找准这些关联词,就能够分辨出句与句之间的逻辑关系,分别弄清主句的意义和从句的意义,则长句就容易对付得多了。要掌握此方法必须对英语中的常见的关联词谙熟于心。Whereas a woman’s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to 精品文档

考研英语阅读真题经典长难句必背

考研英语阅读真题经典长难句必背 阅读命题常针对长难句。所以很有必要熟悉长难句的种类以及它们各自的重点。今天先介绍长难句的把握方法,再给出一些典型的句子,建议熟读甚至背诵,以做到考试时碰到类似句子就能抓住重点。 一、长难句一般应对策略 1.从句又多又长:一个主句带多个从句,从句中又含有从句 应对方法:先抓主干,找出复杂句中最核心的主谓宾,再层层展开 2.句子中带有长长的插入成分:用插入语来交代某句话是谁说的或者是说话人的身份,或解释、说明前面的内容 应对方法:理解句子主干时,先不理会插入语,等把主句的意思看完整,然后再看插入成分 3. 分词短语、独立主格结构的干扰 应对方法:主句最重要的特征就是有完整的主谓结构,尤其是独立的谓语部分。一个看似句子的结构,如果没有独立的谓语部分,它就不是句子,而是分词短语、独立主格结构等,可以先跳过不看 4. 三种情况的混合 应对方法:从前向后,抓住独立的谓语部分,从而区分出主句和分词状语,再根据主句与从句之间的连接词,区分出主句和从句,层层扩展理解,插入语在哪个层次,就放在哪个层次理解 二、特殊句型 对于特殊句型,如虚拟语气,可以将其理解成一种反事实假设,也就是作者的观点和态度与之相反。对于分隔结构而言,其主干一般在破折号、逗号和定语从句之外,阅读时可以先跳过修饰成分。对于关联结构,要学会寻找第二部分,因为第二部分有时是句子的重点。如在not…but…之中,重点在but…之后。 三、具体句子 1、复合句 When a new movement in art attains a certain fashion, it is advisable to find out what its advocates are aiming at, for, however farfetched and unreasonable their principles may seem today, it is possible that in years to come they may be regarded
