C【解析】这篇短文介绍由 Teen Ink 这一杂志提供的社区服务奖,获奖者的奖品,需要写的论文要求以及期限和联系方式。1. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Each year at least two teens are honored for outstanding service to their co
19、mmunity by Teen Ink.”可知,每年至少有两名青少年因为为他们社区的杰出服务而获奖。故选 A.2. 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句的“by Teen Ink”及最后一句的“only from Teen Ink”可知,奖项都是由 Teen Ink 杂志提供。故选 B.3. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Give examples and remember to use as much detail as possible.”可知,给出事例并尽可能多的使用细节。故选 C.【名师点睛】细节理解题主要的答题策略有:(1)细心审题,直接就题找答案。解答此类试题时,不必通篇细看原文,而应采取“
20、带着问题找答案”的方法,先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼) ,然后以此为线索,运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的:段落、语句,仔细品味,对照比较,确定答案。如第 2 小题,根据第二段第一句的“by Teen Ink”及最后一句的“only from Teen Ink”两处,可知奖项都是由 Teen Ink 这一杂志提供的,从而找到答案。(2)变通理解,间接转述找答案。细节理解题通常采用词语和句型转换的形式来取代原文中的表述,命题者在出这类题时惯用“偷梁换柱、张冠李戴”的手法来迷惑考生,即对原句细微处做改动,截取原文词语或结构进行改造,因果倒置,把 A 的观点说成 B 的观点等。所
21、以正确理解题干和信息句的意义是关键。如小题 1,题干中问的是“谁有机会获得社区服务奖” ,文中没有原句回答,而是用的“Each year at least two teens are honored for outstanding service to their community by Teen Ink.”这样一句表述因为为他们社区的杰出服务而获奖,也就得出为社区服务的人们才有机会获奖,得到答案。(3)多点归纳,综合事实找答案。细节理解题有时考查的并不是单一的信息,而是多处信息的整合。解答此类“综合”信息细节题时,一定要全面捕捉相关信息,进行综合分析、归纳,切忌根据“一面之词”草率地作出结
