阅读理解。 I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but
unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, "You mean fortunately." He explained
that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.
My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell
myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and
get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought
of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles
when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.
Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life.
Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and
writing proved inspirational. She wrote, "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.  Only
through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition
inspired and success achieved."
One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From
time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents,  afflictions and difficulties. Some are of our
making but many confront us through no fault of our own.  While we cannot choose the adversity
we can choose our attitude towards it.
Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He
was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces in the Battle of
Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war.
He said, "Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that. That's nonsense. Make
up your mind, you'll never use crutches (拐杖) or a stick, then have a go at everything. Go to school
, join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you
that things are too difficult or impossible."
The biographies(传记)of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome
the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depressed. They chose
their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.

考点

据考高分专家说，试题“阅读理解。 I to.....”主要考查你对 [故事类阅读 ]考点的理解。

故事类阅读

故事类阅读概念：

这类文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。

故事类阅读应试技巧：

1、抓住文章的6个要素：
阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后顺序。因此，无论是顺叙还是倒叙，阅读此类文章时，必须要找到它结构中的5个W（when, where, who, why, what）和1个H（how），不过不是每篇都会完整地交待六个要素。毫无疑问，寻出这些元素是能够正确快速解题的一个先决条件。
2、注意作者的议论和抒情：
高考英语阅读理解故事类文章常伴随着作者思想情感的流露和表达，因此议论和抒情往往夹杂其中。行文时或按事情发生发展的先后时间进行或按事情发生发展的地点来转换，也可能按事情发展的阶段来布局。在引出话题，讲完一件事情后，作者往往会表达个人感悟或提出建议等。这些体现作者观点或思想的语句在阅读时可以划线，它们往往体现文章中心或者写作意图，属于必考点，所以要仔细体会。
3、结合前两点归纳文章中心，把握作者态度：
故事类文章是通过记叙一件事来表达中心思想的，它是文章的灵魂。归纳文章中心思想时，尤其要分析文章的结尾，因为很多文章卒章显志，用简短的议论、抒情揭示文章中心；文章中议论抒情的句子往往与中心密切相关；也有的文章需要在结合概括各段大意的基础上归纳中心。另外，叙述一件事必有其目的，或阐明某一观点，或赞美某种品德，或抨击某种陋习，这就要求我们在阅读时，通过对细节（第1点中的六要素）的理解，把握作者的态度。
4、有章有据进行解题判断：
分析文章，归纳主题，属于分析、概括、综合的表述能力的考查。切忌脱离文章，架空分析，一定让分析在文章中有依据。
