一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

（2）推理判断题。根据后文Lk fr rcks，plant leaves and flwers，r insects yu can keep.Anther way is t begin t cllect smething in yur huse，such as saving bttle-caps（寻找可以保存的石头、植物叶子、花或昆虫。另一种方法是开始收集你家里的物品，例如收集瓶盖），可知B选项"做这件事的一个办法是到外面去"可以引出后文说明做这件事的具体方法。故选B。
（3）主题判断题。根据后文YuTube cntains varieties f music yu can listen t fr free（YuTube包含大量的音乐你可以免费去听），可知A选项"听音乐"可以作为本段的标题，建议把音乐作为兴趣爱好。故选A。
（4）推理判断题。根据前文Yu can als play a wide variety f free nline games with peple arund yu（你也可以与你周围的人一起玩各种各样的免费在线游戏），可知E选项"使用Meetup.cm这个网站去查看，在你的地区有什么团体"可以承接前文，建议与游戏团体一起玩游戏。故选E。
（5）推理判断题。根据前文Find hbbyists and ask thse wh are experienced in yur pssible hbby fr the least cst f materials yu need t start（寻找业余爱好者，并向那些对你潜在爱好有经验的人询问你所需的最低材料成本），可知G选项"这将帮助你判断一个爱好是否符合你的预算"承接前文，说明前文这么做的好处是什么。故选G。
这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了选择一个不需要怎么花钱而且适合自己的兴趣爱好的方法。

近几年高考试题中的完形填空有新的变化，试题所涉及的知识面不断拓宽，综合难度不断提高。做完形填空首先要通读全文，了解大意。一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容。千万不要看一句，做一句。其次要逐句分析，前后一致。选择答案时，要考虑整个句子的内容，包括搭配、时态、语法等。答案全填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅，用词得当，意思正确。
35. （1）考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意："一个人可以创造不同"这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一---鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格处在that引导的定语从句中作谓语，该句描述的是客观事实，故时态为一般现在时态。Attach imprtance t sth是固定短语，意为"重视，认为有重要性"，attach与imprtance为动宾关系，故此题中attach要用被动语态be+dne的结构，且作主语的imprtance为不可数名词，故此题中be动词用is。故填is attached。
（2）考查形容词。句意："一个人可以创造不同"这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一——鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入形容词作定语修饰smething。Significance为名词，意为"重要性，意义"，其形容词变形为significant，意为"有意义的，重要的"。故填significant。
（3）考查连词。句意："一个人可以创造不同"这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一——鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格及后面的句子作介词abut的宾语，为宾语从句的结构，故应填入连词来引导宾语从句。从句为完整的主谓宾结构，结合句意，连接副词hw"如何，怎样"符合题意。故填hw。
（4）考查介词。句意：作为成年人，我们真的相信这个吗？分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入介词，与名词adults构成介宾结构。结合句意，介词as，意为"作为"符合题意。故填as。
（5）考查定语从句。句意：我写文章是想告诉你实际上"一个人可以做到"，因为我知道有一个人做了一个改变了我的生活和数百万人的生活的善举。根据句子结构及句意，空格前为主谓宾的句子结构，空格及后面部分也是句子结构，来修饰名词act"行为"，故为定语从句。空格处用来作谓语动词changed的主语，且指代act，故可用that/which引导限制性定语从句。故填that/which。
（6）考查现在分词。句意：大约15年前，当我开车穿过城镇时，我在听一个电台采访，听到了一个关于慷慨的励志故事。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入非谓语动词作状语，且drive"开车"与句子主语I之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词表主动关系。故填driving。
（7）考查不可数名词。句意：大约15年前，当我开车穿过城镇时，我在听一个电台采访，听到了一个关于慷慨的励志故事。提示词generus"慷慨的"为形容词，空格前的f为介词，故空格处应填入名词作其宾语。Generus的名词变形为genersity"慷慨"，且为不可数名词。故填genersity。
（8）考查动词不定式。句意：一位女士带着十件冬衣穿过感恩节周末的拥挤人群，乘坐公共交通，为了在"一件温暖的外套"活动中捐赠。分析句子结构可知，had carried in为谓语，故动词dnate"捐赠"为非谓语。结合句意，这位女士带着冬衣穿过拥挤的人群，是为了去捐赠衣服，故用不定式表目的。故填t dnate。
（9）考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：在过去的15年里，"一件温暖的外套"已经在全国范围内激励了超过400万件外套的捐赠。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中作谓语，根据时间状语In the past （15）years"在过去的15年里"可知，时态为现在完成时态have/has+dne的结构，主语One Warm Cat为第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has inspired。
（10）考查冠词。句意：作为全国的创始人，我感到温暖，因为我知道我们每个人都有能力在每年的秋天和冬天为成千上万人的生活带来真正的改变。Make a difference为固定短语，意为"有影响，创造不同"。故填a。
这是一篇记叙文，作者通过讲述一位女士在感恩节带着冬衣，穿过人群去捐赠的故事，来告诉我们"一个人也可以创造不同"这个道理。

（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此次短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
