Question

【題目】 In southern England there stands a circle of huge stones! Local people call it stonehenge. It’s said that it was built around 5000 years ago.

Stonehenge has about 80 stones and each is about five meters tall. They were 380 km away from where they were made. The ancient British people had only wooden tools. The stones might be moved by tree trunks. So it was a wonder to build stonehenge. Scientists say it took millions of man-hours to move and raise the huge stones.

How did people move these huge stones from so far without machines? Nobody knows the answer. One record said the great stones were carried to England by magical aliens!

Some scientists believe that stonehenge was a temple. Some believe it was a place to bury dead people or it was probably used for studying the stars and the sky at night.

用細(xì)節(jié)定位法來做細(xì)節(jié)理解題。

細(xì)節(jié)理解題屬直接解答性問題，是閱讀理解題中最簡單的一種，多數(shù)屬中低難度的送分題。但由于中考所占的比例很大，應(yīng)特別引起注意。

事實(shí)和細(xì)節(jié)題的命題特點(diǎn)是：把某詞語、某個句子或某具體事實(shí)用不同于原文的另一方式或句型表達(dá)，即同義改寫。解答這類題的竅門是：A)注意掌握英語的多種表達(dá)法；B）正確分析詞語在句中的作用；C）熟練運(yùn)用英語的句型轉(zhuǎn)換；D）讀懂題干所提出的問題，并準(zhǔn)確地找到文中涉及該問題的句子。

做細(xì)節(jié)題具體方法與步驟如下：

略讀材料,大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨。

按文章的體裁，作者寫作的組織模式及有關(guān)的信息詞，如for example，first，second…等預(yù)測應(yīng)該到何處尋找自己所需要的事實(shí)。

將自己精力放在尋找你所需要的細(xì)節(jié)上，快速通篇跳讀，眼睛自左至右，自上而下呈Z形掃視，直到找到細(xì)節(jié)出處，待找到含細(xì)節(jié)句子時，放慢速度，仔細(xì)核對比較內(nèi)容，直至找到答案。
