Good readers know that reading isn’t just about knowing words — it’s a way of thinking. Smart readers think before, during and after reading. Here are some tips that may be of some help.

    Think before you read. Before you read the text, ask yourself the questions that why you are reading it and what you want to get from it. Answering the questions will help you choose what words you need to know and what words you can skip or scan.

    Think while you are reading. Can you get the meaning of the text without looking up new words in a dictionary? Are there any clues in the text? A text will often give examples that may help you understand what some of the words mean. Let’s take the following sentence for example.

    Many large Russian cities, such as Chelyabinsk and Irkutsk, have taken steps to protect their culture.

    The words “Chelyabinsk” and “Irkutsk” may be new to us, but the sentence tells us that they are examples of _______.

    Think after you read. Do you understand the text? What is the main idea of the text? Can you guess the meaning of the new words? Which words do you need to look up? Is the text too easy or too hard for you?

    If you practice reading and thinking in this way, you will become a smarter reader and you will learn more, faster and better.

My father and I were very close. I loved pleasing him, and he was always proud of my success. If I won a spelling contest(競賽) at school, he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I got a promotion(提升), I'd call my father right away and he'd rush out to tell all his friends. In 1970,when I was named president of the Ford Motor Company, I don't know which of us was more excited.
Like many native Italians, my parents were very open with their feelings and their loves not only at home, but also in public. Most of my friends would never hug(擁抱) their fathers. But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity for nothing could have felt more natural.
He was a curious man who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle. Unfortunately, my father and his motorcycle didn't get along too well. He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels.
Because of that motorcycle, I wasn't allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up. Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend. On the other hand, my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen.

Susan Sontag (1933----2004) was one of the most noticeable figures in the world of literature. For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything---to read every book worth reading, to see every movie worth seeing. When she was still in her early 30s, publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life, trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art. With great effort and serious judgment, Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.
Seriousness was one of Sontag’s lifelong watchwords(格言),but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poor-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture. In Notes on Camp, the 1964 essay that first made her name, she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous. “Notes on Camp”, she wrote, represents “ a victory of ‘form’ over ‘content’, ‘beauty’ over ‘morals’”.
By conviction(信念)she was a sensualist, but by nature she was a moralist, and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s , it was the latter side of her that came forward. In Illness as Metaphor —published in 1978, after she suffered cancer—she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities, a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact, re-examining old positions was her lifelong habit.
In America, her story of a19thcentury Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000.But it was as a all-purpose cultural view that she made her lasting fame. “Sometimes,” she once said, “I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending …is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.” And in the end, she made us take it seriously too.
【小題1】The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means Sontag_________.

A.was a symbol of American cultural life
B.developed world literature, film and art
C.published many essays about world culture
D.kept pace with the newest development of world culture
【小題2】She first won her name through ___________.
A.her story of a Polish actress
B.her book Illness as Metaphor
C.publishing essays in magazines like partisan Review
D.her explanation of a set of difficult understandings
【小題3】According to the passage, Susan Sontag__________.
A.was a sensualist as well as a moralist
B.looked down upon the pop culture
C.thought content was more important than form
D.blamed the victim of cancer for being repressed
【小題4】As for Susan Sontag’s lifelong habit, she __________.
A.misunderstood the idea of seriousness
B.re-examined old positions
C.a(chǎn)rgued for an openness to pop culture
D.preferred morals to beauty
【小題5】Why Susan Sontag won her lasting fame was because of___________-.
A.her point which was suitable for common cultural view
B.her lifelong watchword:seriousness
C.her publishing books on morals
D.her enjoying books worth reading and movies worth seeing

科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆甘肅省天水市高一入學(xué)教育考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Language-learners who say they never or hardly ever use dictionaries often speak English well but usually write poorly, because they make many mistakes.

The students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either. The ones who look up every new word do not read fast. So they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as translations (翻譯) of English. But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English.

The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context. Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables (音節(jié)), they always use a dictionary. Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form, they check these in a dictionary.
