如在Computer一文中,作者贯穿文章始终的主线为Computers are important for human beings,但到了最后,作者笔锋一转,提出Are you afraid if computers can really think one day?作者的行文走向是一种担心和忧虑,所以读者既要善于听话听音,也要把握准文脉,及时调整、定位自己的思路,就会发现上述问题的正确回答应该是 Yes,we are afraid.
如根据化学知识,可以理解科普读物Water is made from oxygen and hydrogen;根据生活经验可以理解Green plants let out oxygen and breathe in carbon dioxide.
还有一种方法是根据逻辑推理理解短文。逻辑推理实际上就是文章的“弦外之音”、“言下之意”。如一道中考模拟卷阅读问题, Then they came to the second picture. The assistant was going to draw the cloth as he did before. As soon as he touched the cloth, he cried, “Wonderful It's the best picture I have ever seen!” 据此可以推断出第二张画画的是一块布。
如,Parents whose children show a special interest in a particularsport have a difficult decision to make about their children's career.
先找出本句的主、谓、宾为Parents have a decision.
再找出修饰语Whose children show a special interest in a particular sport为Parents的定语从句,difficult修饰decision,to make about their children's careers为不定式做decision的定语。
