在一篇文章中作者为了阐述文章的主旨大意(中心思想),往往要提出一些具体的内容,用来说明、界定、证明或分析文章的主题,这些具体的内容就是文章的细节。一个细节就是一条信息或一种事实,它可以是一个短语,也可以是一句话或几句话。细节性问题就是针对文章中的具体内容而提出的问题,目的在于考查考生对文章内容的理解程度。在职称考试的阅读理解试题中,大多数考题是针对这些细节性问题而设计的。因此,我们在阅读中不仅要抓住文章的主旨大意,还要在掌握文章主题思想的基础上,抓住阐述和发展主题思想的主要事实或有关细节,领会文章的内在联系。

  阅读时,我们为了能更好地理解文章的细节应该做到以下3点:

  1. 首先要找出文章的中心思想。知道了中心思想,就很容易辨别出那些说明中心思想的事实细节。

  2. 当文章中细节较多时,只记那些重要的细节,并用笔做上记号, 以备解题时查阅。

  3. 当你感到所读的细节与主题在逻辑上没有任何关系时,这说明主题没有找准或这不是重要的细节。

  例如:

  Children are very curious by nature. They often like to smell, touch, and taste things while exploring their environments. Your home contains many products that are beneficial if used properly but may be dangerous or even fatal to children. Children are often unaware of the dangers of these products.

  French psychologist Alfred Binet was asked by the French government to develop a test that would help find out which school children were not intelligent enough to profit from regular schooling. Binet thought that intelligence should be measured by tests that required problem solving and reasoning. Binet did a great deal of research with children of various ages. As a result of his work, Binet developed the concept of the IQ, or intelligence quotient, which is the basis for much modern intelligence testing.

  上面两个段落中斜体字部分均为该段落中的最重要的细节。

  细节性问题的命题方式主要的有:

  According 题型

  此题型为最基本题型,在阅读理解的考题中占的比重比较大。该题型的特点是由according to the passage, 或 according to the author / the writer引出,考察考生对具体内容的掌握程度。有时问题中虽然没有 according to,但仍然是要求考生依据文章的内容来回答问题,陈述或确认某些时间、地点、事件等细节性问题,所以仍属于这类题型。这种题型的典型提问方式为:

  According to the passage / article, who (what, where, which, when, why, how, etc.)…?

  The passage states that…。

  The author holds that…。

  这类问题中常使用what, where, which, why, how, because, reason, purpose, cause 等疑问词和单词。对这类提问方式,考生一定要抓住提问中的关键字眼,就可以在短文中找到答案。
