由表及里由淺入深
——推理判斷題的解題技巧
文/王泉
推理判斷題包括結(jié)合文意推斷作者的態(tài)度、文章的寓意或目的以及細(xì)節(jié)的暗示。這類題在原文中無法直接找到答案,屬于主觀性較強(qiáng)的高層次閱讀理解題。做題時(shí),應(yīng)該在忠于原文的基礎(chǔ)上由表及里、由淺入深,運(yùn)用歸納、演繹的思維方法,做出合乎邏輯的推理判斷。文中的依據(jù)可能是具體的某幾句話、某幾個(gè)段落,也可能是全篇文章。另外,句、段、篇之間的邏輯關(guān)系和文章的結(jié)構(gòu)與基調(diào)也是我們準(zhǔn)確把握作者意圖和文章邏輯發(fā)展方向的重要依據(jù)。
這類題要求考生根據(jù)語篇關(guān)系推斷出具體細(xì)節(jié),如人物身份、事件、時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、代詞指代的內(nèi)容、具體信息等。常見的命題方式有:
1.We can infer from the passage that the author.
2.It can be inferred from the passage that.
3.From Paragraph...,we can learn that
【中考真題1】(2015年浙江卷,題目有刪節(jié),題號(hào)不變)Twelve-year-old Leonardo was born in a poor family in Bambamarca in Peru.He knew how to read but he had never seen a book in his life.So he asked the new priest(牧師)in his village to give him one.But there was no electricity.So Leonardo borrow ed candles from the church and sat up all night reading it.The next morning,he was at the door of the priest asking for another book to read.
John Medcalf,the priest,was moved.He also realized that people would love to read if given a chance.But he knew how difficult it was for Leonardo and those in his village to get books.And yet,no one can be taught to read and write without books.To make people in a poor,faraway area grow to love books,they have to be with them.So he thought the only way was to bring books to people.
But how could this be done?Mobile libraries or car libraries would be tooexpensive and difficult to continue in the rocky,hilly land of Peru.So what other method could be used?
Medcalf got a new idea from the barefoot(赤腳)doc tors of China.And that was how the bare foot librarians(圖書管理員)first appeared in the villages of northern Peru,almost thirty years ago.
The librarians began by going from village to village,lending books to villagers. They helped start the Rural Library Network of Peru.
At first,they were teachers of the village schools which these faraway libraries belonged to.But the teachers were not very interested in the job because it meant a lo t of hard work.So,village elders took on the job them selves.
Today,there are 600 village libraries across Peru.The bare foot librarians who walk up to 15 hours a day with bags of books are their life line.
39.The underlined word“this”in Paragraph 3 probably refers to(指)“”.
A.to grow to love books B.to bring books to people
C.to read and write D.to build a new library
41.It can be inferred(推斷)from the passage that.
A.the first church in Peru was set up by John Med calf
B.car libraries used to be popular in Leonardo's village
C.teachers were interested in bringing books to villagers
D.the barefoot librarians are important to village libraries
解析:這兩道題都是推理判斷題。第39題推斷代詞指代的內(nèi)容。根據(jù)第二段最后一句:So he thought the only way was to bring books to people.可以推斷出,下一段第一句中的this指的是to bring books to people。答案為B。第41題則是根據(jù)第5段的整體內(nèi)容進(jìn)行推斷。段中指出“這些圖書管理員開始從一個(gè)村子走到另一個(gè)村子,把書借給村民們。他們幫助創(chuàng)辦了秘魯鄉(xiāng)村圖書館網(wǎng)絡(luò)”,所以可以看出,赤腳圖書管理員對山村圖書館很重要。答案為D。
這類推理判斷題的常見提問形式有:
1.The passage is probably taken from.
2.The passage is probably a part of.
3.Where would this passage most probably appear?
【中考真題2】(2015年包頭卷,保留原題號(hào))If you are sitting down reading this report,stand up,move your legs and touch your fee t if you can.Do anything but sit.If you cut down on the time you spend sitting,you might live longer.New research shows that sitting less than three hours a day might make your life longer by two years.
The human body is designed to move.But modern lifestyles and office jobs don't give us the chance to move around very often.
63.Where is the passage above probably taken from?
A.A menu in the restaurant.B.A magazine on health.
C.A school textbook.D.A story book.
解析:根據(jù)文章的首句及久坐對健康危害的主旨內(nèi)容,我們不難發(fā)現(xiàn)這篇文章可能來自于健康雜志,所以答案選擇B。
根據(jù)文章推測作者的寫作意圖。通常我們不能直接在文中找到作者的陳述,而只能在閱讀全文后,通過捕捉關(guān)鍵信息,客觀地推斷作者的寫作意圖。這類題的提問方式常有:
1.The writer writes this passage in order to.
2.What is the purpose of writing this article?
3.The writer's purpose of writing this passage is to.
4.The author writes this passage in order to...
5.What can we learn from the passage/story/...?

45.The writer writes this passage in order to.
A.introduce an international charitable organization
B.ask people to give the blind a hand
C.tell how you feel if you lose your eyes for a minute
D.explain why ORBIS helps fight blindness
解析:文章第一段讓人們閉上眼睛想象自己失明的情況,第二段指出還有不少盲人正在面臨困難,第三、四段介紹ORBIS——一個(gè)國際慈善機(jī)構(gòu)在關(guān)心、幫助盲人方面的一些活動(dòng)。第五段號(hào)召大家為盲人復(fù)明治療募捐。所以我們可以推斷,作者寫這篇文章的目的是為了呼吁更多的人來幫助盲人,答案為B。
通常作者的觀點(diǎn)與態(tài)度可分為贊同、反對或中立,對文中的人、物或事件等的態(tài)度是贊美、同情、冷漠或憎恨。在推理判斷的過程中,我們應(yīng)該特別注意作者在表達(dá)觀點(diǎn)或進(jìn)行描述時(shí)的措辭,在文中找到關(guān)鍵的語句支撐。這類題的提問方式通常為:
1.What does the writer think o f...?
2.What's the write r's opinion on...?
3.How does the writer fee l about...?
