2006年辽宁地区高考英语阅读理解文章的细节理解8例一篇文章有了话题（topic），确定了要表达的中心思想（main idea）， 还必须通过许多细节的信息来进一步解释或表达主题，体现中心思想弄懂这些细节，对于理解全文的作用是不容忽视的，也是归纳、概括文章中心思想的基础因此，在高考命题中往往会要求考生根据不同的要求，阅读文章以获得某些特定的信息或准确地寻找所需的细节这类考题 可以是比较直接的，理解字面意义就可以答题；但也可能是比较间接的，要通过归纳、综合或推理才能答题例1 Tom Brenna was working in a Philadelphia office building when he noticed a black bag. The bag contained a book. This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure – a 120-page diary kept 190 years ago by Deborah Logan, “a woman who knew everybody in her day,” James Green, the librarian told the magazine American Libraries. Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia. It is also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington, D.C. in the war of 1812. She describes President James Madison on horseback as “perfectly shaking with fear” during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man, and praised her excellent English. The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from England to deliver the diary of his ancestor (祖先) to the library Company, which he and his wife considered to be best home for the diary. Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession “about five minutes” when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realise that he had left it in the taxi. Without any delay, Green began calling every taxi company in the city, with no luck. “I’ve felt sick since then,” Luxmoore told reporters. According to Green, no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building. Tom Brennan received a reward of $1,000, Philadelphia gained another treasure for hit history. And Luxmoore told reporters, “It’s wonderful news. I’m on high.”1. From the text, we learn that the diary is now owned by _______. A.

A. it was written in Philadelphia B. it tells stories about Philadelphia C. people in the city are interested in old things D. the British and Americans once fought in Philadelphia3.

例2 We usually say that people have five senses. Senses are the way that we learn what is happening around us. The five senses are sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Each sense depends on a special organ of the body. This organ receives the information and then the nerves send this information to the brain. For example, eyes control sight. Ears control hearing, and skin controls touch. Taste depends on the taste buds on the tongue, and smell depends on the nose. In addition, there are also other senses which are equally as important. There is a sense of balance which stops us from falling down. We also have senses of hunger, thirst, and heat and cold.We may conclude from the passage that all senses are greatly controlled by _____. A. the nerves in the hands B. the brain C. a special organ of the human body D. the eyes, ears, and nose注释： 许多学生不加思索地选择了C. 其根据是句中出现了Each sense depends on a special organ of the body. 这里，他们忽略了两点：1）题干是… that all senses are greatly controlled by … 而并非each sense 2)文章中在Each sense depends on a special organ of the body.句后还有 This organ receives the information and then the nerves send this information to the brain. 因此，正确选项应为B.例3 Lakeland, Florida, April 29 --- two cars dropped from sight, falling into the bottom of a 30-foot deep sinkhole which appeared suddenly.
