●明确几个观点：
1、英语是一门工具性的学科，不是知识性的学科。
2、英语是练会的不是学会的。
也就是说不能仅满足于听懂，理解，更重要的是要反复听说读写练习。有时甚至不需要懂为什么，记住能用就行。在使用过程中，就会发现自己的语感有所提高。
3、英语新课标下的英语学习的目的是要培养学生的自主学习能力和综合运用语言的能力，学习英语不仅仅是为了考试，还为今后的工作，甚至终身服务。
●高中三年英语学习的侧重点不同：
高一年级：重点在培养兴趣，锻炼听说能力，掌握基本的阅读方法，同时注意培养良好的学习习惯。
高二年级：坚持听说练习，着重扩大词汇量和阅读量，以提高综合运用语言的能力。
高三年级：提高语言知识的准确性和综合性，并努力提高做题技巧。。
●学习中要注意的几点：(DOS AND DON’ts)
1、要点滴积累，不要急于求成。
记住：ROME IS NOT MADE IN ONE DAY!
急于求成就可能会造成消化不良，或者一事无成的结果。急于求成往往表现为对自己提出过高的要求。这样做往往会给自己很大压力，进而对自己逐渐失去信心，失去兴趣。
记住：TEN MINUTES EVERY DAY IS BETTER THAN TEN HOURS IN ONE DAY!
尊重记忆规律，反复是关键。
记住：ALWAYS KEEP AN ENGLISH BOOK AT HAND!
利用点滴时间：与其他学科穿插 进行。早晨是学习英语的大好时光。
2.要树立信心，不要妄自菲薄。
“即使是天才，他出生时的第一声啼哭也不是动听的音乐。”听别人说的好，就急，自卑，否定自己。要知道别人也是练出来的。任何时候起步都不晚。要知道树立信心的过程就是不断犯错的过程。要勇于犯错，才能提高。
3.要做到博闻强识，不要只认课本
许多语言教育专家指出：语言能力的强弱与掌握语言材料的多寡成正比。语言材料输入量越大，语言能力提高越快，其中背诵是一种强化语言材料输入的好方法，是不可缺少的语言学习环节。背诵要背肯定是正确的东西。不要脱离上下文记单词。
注意生活中一闪而过的东西，如电影中，电视转播中，新闻中，报纸上，网络上出现的新的有趣的东西。
4.要主动出击，不要坐等人教 ;要持之以恒，不要三天打鱼两天晒网。
5.要学会总结。
学习中要揣摩规律，善于模仿，了解背景知识，分辨语言应用环境。
6.积极参加各种有关英语学习的课外活动。
●具体学习方法：
1、听说结合训练
1)听说结合训练是交流的需要。
2)听说结合训练也是学习规律的要求：高效学习的过程是：存储，记忆和激活(灵活运用)的过程。听懂，并讲出就是将课本上的句子单词语法复习和巩固的过程。
3)听说结合训练 能够帮你树立信心，多听各种生活情景下的句子，做到能条件反射地说出该说的英语句子。这样遇到实际需要，就可以不假思索的脱口而出。能说出一口流利的英语，不仅培养了成就感，也促进了语言的学习。
开始时可跟录音读，保证发音正确。因为许多同学听力差并不是因为掌握的语言知识不够，而是听到的正确的语音与自己所说熟悉的不正确的读音不能联系起来，因此影响了理解。
2、阅读训练：
阅读应该是高中三年中最应重视的部分了。因为它是培养英语语感，巩固和熟悉所学知识的最有效途径。而近年来的大学联考也越来越重视这方面的考察。因此，课外阅读时可采用半精读与泛读的方式。
半精读：选长短适中，有一定生词的原文材料或某一种教材。要持之以恒。 要记住，用一本教科书学英语是绝对不够的。
泛读：自助餐及书报杂志。读不同题材、体裁的文章，理解跨学科知识。读时注意对运用精妙的词汇，短语 或句子做些摘抄。
3、课堂学习：
课堂上要积极参与，不能做被动的听众。提高课堂效率，珍惜每一次练习机会。
预习：熟读课文，了解生词在文章中的使用，标出难点。
听讲：老师设计的课堂活动是有目的的。别人答题时自己不能不听不练。
记笔记：理解≠记住≠灵活运用 因此，对好的例句、词语辨析、常用句型、文化差异，中英文差异，习俗差异都可作些笔录。
高中英语复习方法：消灭“生词”归纳知识点
第一、重视基础，加强词汇、短语的梳理、积累与记忆。1. 整理已经做过的英语试卷、练习，尤其是近三年的大学联考英语真题和各地的一模、二模试题。整理时要注意理解提干的意义，理解各选项的含义，理解选择的理由。对 于单选题和完形填空，力争做到“无生词”，即：如果其中有生词，就把这个词的意义和用法弄清楚，然后加以背诵。对于单选、完形这两个题型，不仅要理解，最 好还要多朗读，熟练朗读使我们更容易理解这个句子，同时可以加强记忆效果，增强语感。注意：无论是朗读单项选择题还是完形填空题，最好把正确项放回空格处 朗读，即不看A、B、C、D各选项，直接朗读句子或文章。多遍朗读，直至熟练，效果更佳。2. 把握常考词语(热点词语)的用法，热点词语的用法，要从词性、词义、搭配等角度去理解，尤其要注意一词多义的情况。如mean可以是动词，也可以是形容 词。作动词用，后接名词或动名词时意思是“意味着”，后接不定式时意思是“意图要”;作形容词时意思是“卑鄙”、“吝啬”;mean后加s，means是 名词，意思是手段，常用于by… means的句型。3.注意同义词的辨析，英语中有很多同义词，复习中要对常考的同义词进行比较分析，把握它们的异同点。常考的同义词如：sit vs seat; include vs contain; ordinary, common, popular, normal; leave, remain; price, prize. award, reward; incident, event, coincidence, matter, affair等。4. 注意拼写类似但意义不同的词语。如：board, aboard, broad, abroad, bored; affect, effect, offer, effort, afford等
第二、分析语境，熟练掌握常考语法项目的用法。大学联考中最常见的也是最容易弄错的是与动词相关的语法现象。要理清楚 相关的语法概念，并通过实际示例来学会分析和掌握。另外在下列短语中，to是介词，后面也接动名词作宾语：come close to, pay attention to, devote …to…, object to, get used to, subscribe to, submit to, cater to, take to, look forward to等。这些知识的归纳，可以使我们在考试时自如应对相关的考点。
高中英语动词时态、语态知识难点
1、 一般现在时
（1） 表示经常发生的动作或现在存在的状态，常与sometimes, always, often, every day等时间状语连用。如：Sometimes, we go swimming after school.
（2） 表示客观真理、科学事实等。如：The earth goes round the sun.
2、 现在进行时
(1) 表示说话时或现阶段正在进行的动作，常与now, at present等时间状语连用。如：
What are you doing now?
(2) 和always, continually等连用，表一种经常反复的动作，常含有某种情感。如：
He is always doing good deeds.
3、 现在完成时
主要表示动作发生在过去，对现在仍有影响，或动作一直延续到现在，或可能还要继续下去，常与just, already, so far, once, never 等词连用。如:Have you ever been to Beijing?
4、一般将来时
表示将来某一时间要发生的动作或存在的状态，常与tomorrow, next year等连用。如：
I'll meet you at the school gate tomorrow morning.
We're going to see a film next Monday.
5、一般过去时
表示在过去某一时间或某一阶段内发生的动作或存在的状态，常与yesterday, last year, in 1998, a moment ago等词连用。如：It happened many years ago.
6、过去进行时
表示过去某一时刻或某一时期正在发生的动作。如：
What were you doing this time yesterday?
7、 过去完成时
表示在过去某一时间或动作之前已经发生或完成了的动作。如：
The train had already left before we arrived.
８、一般过去将来时
表示说话人从过去的角度来看将来发生的动作。如：
He said he would come, but he didn't.
９、被动语态被动语态的时态，以give为例。
II．例题
例１ I learned that her father ____ in 1950.
A had died B died C dead D is dead
解析：该题正确答案为Ｂ。从句中的谓语动词动作虽然发生在主句谓语动词的动作之前，但因从句中有明确的.过去时间状语in 1950, 所以不用过去完成时态，而用一般过去时态。
例２ The five-year-old girl ____ by her parents.
A is looked B has looked for
C is being looked for D has been looked
解析：该题正确答案为Ｃ。在带有介词的动词短语用于被动语态句中，介词不能省，否则就变成了不及物动词短语，而不能用于被动语态的句子中。
（五）动词虚拟语气
I．要点
表示说的话不是事实，或者是不可能发生的情况，而是一种愿望、建议或与事实相反的假设等。一般常用于正式的书面语中。
１、 虚拟语气的构成
注：如果条件从句谓语动词包含有were或had, should, could有时可将if省去, 但要倒装。如：
Had you (If you had) invited us, we would have come to your party.
２、 虚拟语气在各种从句的应用
（１） 在主语从句中用来表示惊奇、惋惜、理应如此等，其谓语形式是"should(可省) ＋动词原形"，常用于以下三种句型中。
句型一：It is necessary (important, natural, strange, etc) that…
句型二：It is a pity (a shame, no wonder, etc) that…
句型三：It is suggested (requested, proposed, desired, etc) that…
如： It is strange that he (should) have done that.
It is a pity that he (should) be so careless.
It is requested that we (should) be so careless.
（２） 在宾语从句中用于suggest, propose, move, insist, desire, demand, request, order, command等动词后的宾语从句中，表间接的命令和建议。其谓语形式是"(should)+动词原形"。如：
I suggest that we (should) go swimming.
（３） 在表语从句中，表示间接的命令，要求、请求、建议、决定等，主句中的主语通常是suggestion, proposal, request, orders, idea等。从句谓语形式是"(should)＋动词原形"。如：
His suggestion is that we (should) leave at once.
（４） 在同位语从句中，谓语形式是"(should)＋动词原形"。如：
We received order that the work be done at once.
（５） 在It is time that…句型中，其谓语动词形式是"动词的过去式"或
"should ＋动词原形",should不可省。如：It's time (that) we went ( should go) to school.
II．例题
例１ We had hoped that he ____ longer.
A stays B have stayed C stayed D would stay
解析：该题正确答案为Ｄ。had hoped表示"本希望"，同样用法的动词还有think, expect等，后面的句子需用虚拟语气
例２ "Mary wants to see you today".
"I would rather she ____ tomorrow than today."
A comes B came C should come D will come
解析：该题正确答案为Ｂ。would rather后面的从句需用虚拟语气，用动词过去时表示。
例３ Had she been older, she ____ it better.
A had done B might have doneC might do D would do
大学联考英语阅读理解细节理解题高分策略
细节理解题要求考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节进行理解。有些问题考生可以直接从文中找到明确的答案，但有些则需要我们在理解的基础上将有关信息进行处理，如计算、排序、判断、比较等。同往年一样，2007年全国及各省、市阅读理解中，对细节理解类题型的考查依然占了较大的比例。特别是应用文、说明文和记叙文中，更是侧重于对细节理解的考查。
（一）命题方式细节理解题常见的出题方式有以下几种：
1.以when， where， what， which， who， how much， how many等疑问词开头引出的问题；
2.是非判断题，题干中常有TRUE， NOT true或EXCEPT等；
3.以According to …… 开头的提问方式；
4.以填空题的形式出现的题干，在2007年大学联考题中出现的此类题目有：
1） Certain animals change their choice of food when _______.
2） Daylight Saving Time was introduced in Tasmania _______.
3） The writer thought Amery ”a fair game“ because the boy _______.
4） Mr. Dunlop established his business _______.
（二）解题指导
1. 应用文中的细节理解应用文，特别是广告，是阅读理解题中常见的一种体裁。广告简洁明快，语言精练，篇幅小、信息多。广告阅读题多为细节理解题。做这类阅读题的技巧是：先读题目，带着问题有针对性地阅读相关部分快速寻找有效信息。一般情况下，只要细心都会找到正确答案。
2. 说明文中的细节理解与应用文一样，说明文中的阅读理解也偏重考查细节，我们也可以采用”先看题，然后带着问题在材料中寻找对应信息“的办法答题。
3. 记叙文中的细节理解故事、人物描写等记叙文体是阅读理解的考查重点之一。做这类题一般也可采用”寻读法“，即先读题，然后带着问题短文，找出与问题有关的词语或句子，再对相关词语或句子进行分析对比，获取准确信息，找出正确答案。
4. 细节理解题中的代词指代题代词指代题要求考生根据上、下文推测代词的指代意义。此类题一般是在人物或事物关系比较复杂的情况下使用，所以理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。
（三）小结大学联考要求考生在规定的时间里处理大量的阅读材料，因此，掌握答题技巧，提高阅读速度就显得尤为重要。一般来说，解答细节理解题时都可采用”寻读法“。也就是说，考生不必通篇细看原文，而常常可采取”带着问题找答案“的，先从问题中抓住关键性词语。然后以此为线索，快速地捕捉和理解事实或细节，恰当地运用略读、查读等技巧，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。
大学联考英语阅读理解 推理判断题解题技巧
一、题型介绍：
推理判断题属于主观题，是层次较高的题目。它包括判断和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存，推理是为了作出正确的判断，正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。该题要求在理解表面文字的基础上，作出判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含的意思和深层的意思，也就是通过文章中的文字信息，上下逻辑关系及事物的发展变化等已知的信息，推断出作者没有直接表达的态度和观点。
常见的推理判断题的设问方式：
推测作者写作目的或意图的设题形式有：
1) The purpose in writing this text is to __________.
2) The author writes this passage to __________.
3) The author in this passage intends to __________.
推测文章的观点或结论的设题形式有：
1) It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
2) What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
3) From the passage we can conclude that __________.
推断文章出处的设题形式有：
1)The passage is most likely to be taken from_________.
2)Where would this passage most probably appear?
3)The passage is most likely a part of_________.
是非判断题的设题方式：
1．which of the following is （not）true or false ?
2．All of the following statements are wrong except _____
3．All of the following statements are right/true except _____.
4．Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage /text?
逻辑排序题的设题方式：
Which of the following describes one’s logic in doing sth ?
Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened to …?
Choose the right order of the following events in …
二、推理判断题的解题 ：
推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。任何一篇文章都有其特定的写作目的，读者应当知道如何去做或按照某种方式传递思考问题。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分－推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分－推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。
三、考题探究
The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born. Two years later in Holland, the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens 高中语文. The ordinary people who take part in the programs are known by millions of people
in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business.
For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream come true because many of the programs cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers (观众) are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show, a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the record are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten.
But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the personal lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called " rubbish TV" and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother was described as "against human rights and civilization".
It can be concluded from the passage that __________.
A. everyone is happy about reality TV
B. reality TV will do well in many countries
C. all the people in Europe are in favor of reality TV
D. reality TV will not be broadcast in any countries
学海导航 ：B 通读全文，本文主要讲的是reality TV，根据第一段的中间Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens，可知真人秀在20多个国家流行。故答案为B。该题也可以用排除法，AC两项很容易排除，可能有些会选D，其实every ，all，not 连用才表示部分否定，而any不是。D表示现实剧不会在任何一个国家播放，当然是不对的。
四、实例演练
Are British people Europeans? This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians，who tend to think of all white people as Europeans．But the British，when they are in Britain，do not regard themselves as Europeans．The Europeans，to them，are those rather excitable foreigners from the other side of the English Channel，who have never learnt how to speak English．Europe is known as “the Continent”，a place full of interest for British tourists，but also the source of almost a11 the wars in which Britain has ever been involved．Thus although geographically speaking Britain is a part of Europe，the fact that it is a separate island has made its people feel very，very insular (孤立的)．They feel，and in many ways are，different from the rest of Europe，and they sometimes annoy continental nations by failing to support them，or even to understand them，in time of need．
Where did British people come from? This is an extraordinary interesting question，since they are a mixture of many different races，and all these races invaded (侵略) Britain at different times from Europe．Nobody knows very much about Britain before the Romans came during the first century B．C., but there had been at least three invasions before that．The first of these was by a dark-haired Mediterranean race called the Iberians．Theother two were by Celtic tribes：first the Gaels，whose descendants are the modern Scots and Irish，some of whom still speak the Gaelic language；and second the Britons，who gave their name to the whole island of Britain．These were the people whom the Romans conquered．The Romans gave the Britons a good deal of their civilization，but they never settled in Britain in very large numbers，so the British race survived until the overthrow of the Roman Empire by the “barbarians”，i．e．the numerous Germanic tribes which overran the whole of Western Europe．
*It can be known from the passage that .
A．most people think white people are Europeans
B．there are many Africans and Asians living in Europe
C．white men are Europeans in the eyes of Africans and Asians
D．the British people think of themselves as Europeans
【点津】 C 该题主要考查对第一段第二句This may seem a strange question to Africans and Asians，who tend to think of all white people as Europeans说明在非洲人和亚洲人都认为所有的白人都是欧洲人。
五、经验总结:
1 .确定作者的观点及写作理由。
2.分析材料提供的全部事实。
3 .注意词的词典义和联想义，将材料中已知的事实与材料中没有表达的概念联系在一起。
4 .深入理解已知的事实的潜在的信息。
英语语法：倒装句之部分倒装
各科成绩的提高是同学们提高总体学习成绩的重要途径，大家一定要在平时的练习中不断积累，小编为大家整理了英语语法：倒装句之部分倒装 ，希望同学们牢牢掌握，不断取得进步!
部分倒装是指将谓语的一部分如助动词或情态倒装至主语之前。如果句中的谓语没有助动词或情态动词，则需添加助动词do, does或did，并将其置于主语之前。
1) 句首为否定或半否定的词语，如no, not, never, seldom, little, hardly, at no time, in no way, not until… 等。
Never have I seen such a performance.
Nowhere will you find the answer to this question.
Not until the child fell asleep did the mother leave the room.
当Not until引出主从复合句，主句倒装，从句不倒装。
注意： 如否定词不在句首不倒装。
I have never seen such a performance.
The mother didn't leave the room until the child fell asleep.
典型例题
1) Why can't I smoke here?
At no time___ in the meeting-room
A. is smoking permitted B. smoking is permitted
C. smoking is it permitted D. does smoking permit
答案A. 这是一个倒装问题。当否定词语置于句首以表示强调时，其句中的主谓须用倒装结构。 这些否定词包括no, little, hardly, seldom, never, not only, not until等。本题的正常语序是 Smoking is permitted in the meeting-room at no time.
2) Not until the early years of the 19th century ___ what heat is.
A. man did know B. man know C. didn't man know D. did man know
答案D. 看到Not until…的句型，我们知道为一倒装句，答案在C，D 中选一个。
改写为正常语序为，Man did not know what heat is until the early years of the 19th. 现在将not提前，后面就不能再用否定了,否则意思就变了。
以上就是为大家整理的英语语法：倒装句之部分倒装 ，希望同学们阅读后会对自己有所帮助，祝大家阅读愉快。
大学联考英语阅读理解 主旨大意题解题技巧
一、题型介绍：
一篇文章一般表达一个中心或主题。这个中心或主题通常用一个句子来概括，此句叫主题句，这类题主要考查读者把握全文内容或理解中心思想的，也包括分析归纳文章段落大意、重要情节、人物特征、写作特点的。一般说来说明文和议都有主题句，而且多位于文章的开头，有时也位于文章的中间或末尾。但有时不能直接在文章中直接找到主题句，在弄清段与段之间逻辑关系的基础上自己归纳总结。主题句必须能简洁明了地概括全文的主要内容，具有高度的综合性和概括性，文章或段落的其他句子都是对主题句的进一步的解释、说明、论证或拓展。
常见的主旨大意题的考查形式：
The text is mainly about ____.
The main idea／The general idea／The main purpose is ______.
What’s the main point the writer is trying to make in the last paragraph?
What would be the best title /headline for the text?
This article mainly tells about the story of ____.
What is the topic of the text?
The subject discussed in this text is ____.
What does the second paragraph discuss?
The paragraph (passage) deals with _____.
What is mainly discussed in the text?
二、主旨大意题解题与步骤：
略读法是理解全文大意的快速而有效的方法，略读的关键是能抓住文章要点的前提下，以个人最快的速度阅读，主要目的是尽快获得足够的信息以便准确的回答问题，利用略读法去做阅读时，要特别注意首尾两段，要学会寻找文章段落的主题句，这是高效省事地抓住段落要点的捷径，同时也是准确理解文章大意的有效途径。在做题时要注意以下步骤：
1．先看问题，看是否有和主旨相关的题目，了解题目类别和提问方式。
2．再看文章首尾和各段开头，找出主题句或通过浏览全文，抓住关键字眼，把握主旨。
3．以掌握主旨为前提，处理推断作者语气或意图等其他深层次问题。
三、考题探究
PITTSBURGH – For most people, snakes seem unpleasant or even threatening. But Howie Choset sees in their delicate movements a way to save lives.
The 37-year-old Carnegie Mellon University professor has spent years developing snake-like robots ，he hopes will eventually slide through fallen buildings in search of victims trapped after natural disasters or other emergencies.
Dan Kara is president of Robotics Trends, a Northboro, Mass.-based company that publishes an online industry magazine and runs robotics trade shows. He said there are other snake-like robots being developed, mainly at universities, but didn’t know of one that could climb pipes.
The Carnegie Mellon machines are designed to carry cameras and electronic sensors and can be controlled with a joystick(操纵杆). They move smoothly with the help of small electric motors, or servos, commonly used by hobbyists in model airplanes.
Built from lightweight materials, the robots are about the size of a human arm or smaller. They can sense which way is up, but are only as good as their human operators, Choset added.
Sam Stover, a search term manager with the Federal Emergency Management Agency based in Indiana, said snake-type robots would offer greater mobility than equipment currently available, such as cameras attached to extendable roles.
“It just allows us to do something we’ve not been able to do before,” Stover said, “We needed them yesterday.”
He said sniffer dogs are still the best search tool for rescue workers, but that they can only be used effectively when workers have access to damaged building.
Stover, among the rescue workers who handled the aftermath (后果) of Hurricane Katrina, said snake robots would have helped rescuers search flooded houses in that disaster.
Choset said the robots may not be ready for use for another five to ten years, depending on funding.
What is the text mainly about?
A. Snake-like robots used in industries.
B. Snake-like robots made to aid in rescues.
C. The development of snake-like robots.
D. The working principles of snake-like robots.
学海导航：B 该题是考查文章的主旨大意。文章的第一段只是引出这一话题，第二段才是本文的主题，第二段中提到Choest讲究 snake－like robots是因为he hopes will eventually slide through fallen buildings in search of victims trapped after natural disasters or other emergencies，由此可知，Choset 研究蛇形机器人的目的是为了在自然灾害或其他的紧急事故中起作用。
四、实例演练
Everyone’s at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn't done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction(网上拍卖).
Buying for beginners: Sign up on www. ehay. co. uk. Most items (e.g. tables, computers, and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with Buy It Now and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away.
If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids (出价) for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10days and when they finish you get an email telling you whether you have won the item.
How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card (信用).
Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends' advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starring on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.
The big things in life: It' s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. Cheek the ways of delivery before you bid.
What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to make payment online.
B. Ways of making delivery online
C. Advantages of an online-auction system.
D. How to use an online-auction system.
【点津】D本题考察考生对文章主旨要义的理解能力。四个选项均涉及到有关短文内容，但是通过比较其核心概念，会发现A选项为“支付首段”， B选项为“交货方式”， C选项为“系统优势”，D选项为“使用方法”。由此可见A、B、C三个选项都只涉及了短文部分内容，不具备概括全篇的作用。D选项包含所有内容，能够全面概括出短文的主旨要义 大学联考。C选项由于说话方式本身具有概括意味，具有一定的干扰。
五、经验总结:
1．把握逻辑结构，提高这方面的能力对于阅读议论文或说明文尤为重要，在此类文章中常用某个细节来引出题目从而进行议论，在议论的过程中可能会出现一些论据或细节描述，这部分常被设置为此类的干扰项。
2．找准主题句，主题句通常在文章句首，句中或句末，主题句表达中心思想，起主导作用，阅读时要对容易出现主题句的地方特别注意。六、主旨大意题的错误选项有一下特点：
1．以偏盖全。只是局部信息或者是一句没有展开论述的话。
2．过于笼统。即归纳的主题太宽泛，与细节脱节或者是没有对细节加以充分论述。
3． 把观点强加于作者。读者往往根据自己的常识对文章进行判断而忽视了作者的见解。
4．无关信息，即在文章中没有提到或者是找不到语言 依据的信息。
