题文
阅读理解。 Maurice Sendak's children's book, Where the Wild Things Are, published in 1963, has becomevery successful throughout the years and was made into a movie earlier this year.
The book's main character is a boy named Max who gets into trouble with his mother and is sent
to bed without any supper. Before long, Max's room magically becomes a forest, and he sails away
to a land where monsters(怪物,怪兽) live. Max isn't scared, though, and becomes king of the wild
things, but after a while, he begins feeling homesick. Max sails back home and his supper is still hot
when he arrives in his bedroom.
Many teachers and professors like this story and use it to help children develop creativity and
imagination. Melina Davis, an education professor, said she likes how the book contains a couple
of pages that have only pictures on them. "This allows children to shape the story themselves," she
said.
The book contains a few of larger words that some parents worry may confuse children, but
experts say those words help improve children's reading skills and challenge them.
Davis said the book is well written which helps kids get involved in the story. "The book talks
about what all children go through, like 'I was naughty but my mommy still loves me'," Davis said.
The book also encourages children to face their fears. "I think it's really good to show that Max
makes friends with the monsters," Davis said. "Kids can find out monsters aren't always the thing
under the bed that's going to scare them. I think this is good because it shows that the children can
go to scary places but still have a positive experience."
Since the book has been successful throughout the years, a movie was recently made and many
people are excited to see it. Davis said she thinks the movie will be wonderful but it might be a little
scary for younger children. "You don't want bad dreams over a book that's extremely wonderful,"

日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
