Eating habits are often different in many countries. It’s very helpful to know something about the British meals before travelling to Britain. In many English houses, people eat four meals a day. They are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.

Breakfast takes place at any time from 7:00 to 9:00 in the morning. They usually have eggs, bread with butter, cheese and so on. English people drink tea or coffee at breakfast. Lunch comes at one o’clock. It can be a hamburger or a three-course （三道菜的）meal. Afternoon tea is between 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Dinner begins at about half past seven. The first course is soup. The next is often meat or fish with vegetables. Then come fruits of different kinds; apples, pears, bananas and so on.

文章大意：很多國家的飲食習(xí)慣各不相同，在去英國旅行前需要了解英國的飲食習(xí)慣。很多英國家庭一日四餐。早飯?jiān)谠绯科唿c(diǎn)到九點(diǎn)之間，午飯?jiān)谝稽c(diǎn)鐘，下午茶在下午四點(diǎn)到五點(diǎn)，晚飯?jiān)诖蠹s七點(diǎn)半開始。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)In many English houses, people eat four meals a day.可知，在許多英國家庭里，人們一天吃四頓飯。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)English people drink tea or coffee at breakfast.可知，英國人早餐喝茶或咖啡。故選D。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Afternoon tea is between 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Dinner begins at about half past seven. 下午茶在下午4點(diǎn)到5點(diǎn)之間。晚餐大約在七點(diǎn)半開始�？芍�，在英國，下午茶通常在午餐和晚餐之間。故選D。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)The first course is soup. The next is often meat or fish with vegetables. 第一道菜是湯。第二種通常是肉或魚配蔬菜�？芍�，晚餐的第二道菜通常是肉或魚配蔬菜。故選C。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)In many English houses, people eat four meals a day. They are breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner.可知，有些英國人一天吃飯。它們是早餐、晚餐、茶和晚餐。故選B。

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(gè)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。

例如：本題的第1、2和第4、5小題就是利用這種解法。

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(shí)，放慢速度，仔細(xì)核對(duì)比較內(nèi)容，直至找到答案。
