Throughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential c

题文

Throughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential candidates and how they’ll change America. Rightly so, but selfishly, I’m more fascinated by Michelle Obama and what she might be able to do, not just for this country, but for me as an African-American woman. As the potential First Lady, she would have the world’s attention. And that means that for the first time people will have a chance to get up close and personal with the type of African-American woman they so rarely see.
Usually, the lives of black women go largely unexamined. The prevailing theory seems to be that we’re all hot-tempered single mothers who can’t keep a man. Even in the world of make-believe, black women still can’t escape the stereotype of being eye-rolling, oversexed females raised by our never-married, alcoholic (酗酒的) mothers.
These images have helped define the way all women are viewed, including Michelle Obama. Before she ever gets the chance to commit to a cause, charity or foundation as First Lady, her most urgent and perhaps most complicated duty may be simple to be herself.
It won’t be easy. Because few mainstream publications have done in-depth features on regular African-American women, little is known about who we are, what we think and what we face on a regular basis. For better or worse, Michelle will represent us all.
Just as she will have her critics, she will also have millions of fans who usually have little interest in the First Lady. Many African-American blogs have written about what they’d like to see Michelle bring to the White House—mainly showing the world that a black woman can support her man and raise a strong black family. Michelle will have to work to please everyone—an impossible task. But for many African-American women like me, just a little of her poise (沉着), confidence and intelligence will go a long way in changing an image that’s been around for far too long.

小题5:A

解析


这是《新闻周刊》2008 年 11 月刊的一篇文章,题目为 MICHELLE OBAMA IS A BLACK SKINNEDBEAUTY。全文共五段。第一段作者介绍作为黑人女性,她更关注米歇尔奥巴马,因为作为准第一夫人,米歇尔代表的正是人们平时极少接触的非洲裔女性美国公民。第二至四段介绍过去人们对黑人女性带有成见的看法,因此米歇尔将代表所有黑人女性来改变世人对她们的看法。最后一段介绍米歇尔作为第一夫人,美国黑人对她的期望,以及她身上所具有的、黑人女性应该学习的品质。
小题1:事实细节题。根据题干中关键词 Michelle Obama 和 fascination for the author,答案可定位在第一段第二句和末句。根据第一段第二句...what she might be able to do not just for this countrybut for me as an African-American woman 和本段末句中...people will have a chance to get upclose and personal with the type of African-American woman they so rarely see,即她(米歇尔)会代表美国的黑人女性,并且人们通过与她的密切接触来了解美国黑人女性的形象。C 的意思与之相符,故选C
小题2:事实细节题。根据题干中的关键词 stereotype of African-American women,答案可定位在第二段第二、三句。这前两句告诉读者人们普遍认为大多数黑人女性都是暴躁脾气的单身妈妈,吸引不住男人。在人们的想象中,黑人女性给人留下的刻板印象往往是:受人歧视,性交过度,通常被未婚的酒鬼老妈养大。选项 B 的意思与之接近,故选B
小题3:语义理解题。根据题干中 African-Americans write about in their blogs,答案可定位在末段第二句。根据此句 Many African-American blogs have written about what theyd liketo see Michelle bring to the White House----mainly showing the world that a black woman cansupport her man and raise a strong black family,意为quot许多非洲裔美国人的博客里都曾写到对米歇尔的期待,写到她带进白宫的将是对整个世界的宣言,宣告黑人女性同样可以支持老公,同样可以肩负一个黑人.选 D
小题4:语义理解题。根据题目,答案可定位在末段末句。根据此句But for many African-American women like me, just a little of her poise(沉着),confidence and intelligence will go a long way in changing an image that’s been around for far too long,即但对于像我一样的非洲裔美国人,即便能够学到她的一丝沉着,一丝自信和一丝聪慧,那都将会很大程度上改变长久以来黑人女性给人的印象,由此可知米歇尔是不会令美国黑人失望的。故选择B
小题5:语义理解题。根据题目African-American women hope答案定位在末段末句。短文第四段末句For better or worse, Michelle will represent us all,即米歇尔代表着美国黑人女性的形象。末段末句提到“对于像我一样的非洲裔美国人,即便能够学到她的一丝沉着,一丝自信和一丝聪慧,那都将会很大程度上改变长久以来黑人女性给人的印象。”由此可知米歇尔是美国黑人妇女学习的榜样,广大美国黑人女性如果都能向她学习,就一定会改变公众心中的形象。故选A

考点

据考高分专家说,试题“Throughout this long.....”主要考查你对 [人物传记类阅读 ]考点的理解。

人物传记类阅读

人物传记类文章的文体特征:

人物传记是记叙文体的一种,主要描写某人的生平事迹、趣闻轶事、生活背景、个性特征、成长奋斗历程等,包含记叙文的时间、地点、人物、事件等要素。其特点是以时间的先后或事件的发展为主线,空间或逻辑线索贯穿文章始终,脉络清楚,可读性较强。

人物传记类文章的阅读策略和解题技巧:

1、把握文体特征,注意写作手法如前文所述,人物传记是记叙文体的一种,因此在阅读时要把握好时间、地点、人物和事件这四大要素。
其次,还应该注意人物传记类文章的结构多按时间顺序排列,一般采用倒叙的写作手法,有时也采用插叙和补叙等手段。弄清楚人物传记类文章的特征和写作手法,能帮助考生在阅读和回答问题时做到高效省时、准确无误。
2、抓住题干关键词,采用寻读的方法查找细节描述事实细节题是人物传记类文章的主要题型,一般常见以下几种类型:
(1)对号入座题:
这种题的答案一般在原文中可以直接找到,只要读懂文章,掌握文章中的事实,如时间、地点、事件等细节问题,就能选对正确答案。
(2)词义转换题:
这种题常常是原文有关词语和句子的转换,而不能在原文中直接找到。它要求考生能理解原文中某个短语或句子的含义,从而找到与答案意思相同的词语和句子。
(3)是非题:
该题型俗称“三缺一”题型,即题目四个选项中有三个符合文章内容,剩下一个不符合。题干多为:Which of the following isTRUE?或者三个不符合文章内容,剩下一个符合,题干多为:Which of the following…isNOTtrue?或All the following are true EXCEPT
(4)排序题:
这种题要求考生根据动作发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系,找出事件发生的正确顺序。可采用“首尾定位法”,即先找出第一个动作和最后一个动作,迅速缩小选择范围,从而快速选出正确答案。
(5)指代理解题:
一般是在人物或事物关系比较复杂的情况下使用的一种题型,所以理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。可采用“逻辑关系梳理法”,使人物或事件关系清晰条理。不管题型如何,在做事实细节题时,可采用比较实用的方法一有目的的阅读。在阅读时,首先看题目要求我们理解什么细节,找出关键词,然后以此为线索,运用寻读的技巧迅速在文章里找出相应的段落、句子或短语。认真比较选项和文中细节的区别,在正确理解细节的前提下,确定最佳答案。这样一来,既提高了阅读的速度,又能确保答案的准确率。同时,建议阅读文章时把与答案相符的句子或短语用红线标示出来,标号注上是哪一题答案的相关句子,这样在检查时就不必重新阅读整篇文章了。
3、抽丝剥茧,推理判断深层含义推理判断题主要提问那些未曾在文中说明,但已特别暗示的内容,考查考生对文章的准确理解和判断。人物传记类文章常见的推理判断题型为:
(1)细节推断题:
要求考生根据语篇关系,推断具体细节,如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。一般可根据短文提供的信息,或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。
(2)因果推断题:
要求考生根据已知结果推测导致结果的可能原因。考生要准确掌握文章的内涵,理解文章的真正含义。
(3)人物性格、作者态度及观点判断题:
人物传记类文章中有些是考查考生对作者的主导思想、被描写人物的语气、言语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上做出一定推论和判断,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。解答此类题时,要注意:
(1)吃透文章的字面意思,从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索,这是推理的前提和基础。
(2)对文字的表面信息进俐宅掘加工,由表及里,由浅入深。从具体到抽象,从特殊到一般,通过分析、综合、判断等进行符合逻辑的推理。不能就事论事,断章取义,以偏概全。
(3)基于文章内容,以文章提供的事实和线索为依据,立足已知,推断未知。不能主观臆想,凭空想象,随意揣测,更不能以自己的观点代替作者的观点。
(4)把握句、段之间的逻辑关系,了解语篇的结构。要体会文章的基调,揣摸作者的态度,摸准逻辑发展的方向,悟出作者的弦外之音。
(5)注意文中所用词句的感情色彩,是讽刺性的,批评性的,赞成性的,还是反对性的,以便推测作者的观点和态度。
