整套按顺序列出——孩子看到之前，您可以先通读一遍。
- 'Lena slammed her bag onto the desk and stared out of the window, refusing to look at Mr Park.' What can you infer about Lena's mood?
She is angry or upset with Mr Park
提示Her actions give you the clues, not her words.
为什么The slammed bag and the refusal to look at him are clues. The text never says she is upset.
- 'The museum opens on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but closes for lunch between one and two.' On which days is the museum open?
Tuesdays and Thursdays
提示This detail is stated outright, early in the text.
为什么A retrieval question can be answered by finding the words in the text. No inference is needed.
- Which technique — skimming or scanning — is best for finding one date in a long leaflet?
Scanning
提示You already know exactly what you are looking for.
为什么Scanning means moving your eyes quickly over the text for one detail. Skimming is for the overall gist.
- Which is the better summary of: 'Mina trained for six months, ran every morning in the rain and cut out sugar. On race day she crossed the line first.' A: Mina trained hard and won the race. B: Mina ran in the rain every morning.
A
提示Which one covers the whole passage?
为什么A gathers the main points, the training and the result. B holds only one small detail.
- When you summarise a passage, what should you leave out: the main points, or examples and small details?
Examples and small details
提示Think of what the passage would still make sense without.
为什么A summary keeps the key ideas and drops the extras.
- A story reads: 'When Kit reached the shop, it had already closed. He had missed the bus earlier, so he arrived late.' Which happened first: Kit reached the shop, or Kit missed the bus?
Kit missed the bus
提示Look for the words that signal an earlier event.
为什么'Had missed' and 'earlier' show the bus came first. The telling does not follow the order of events.
- Is this a fact or an opinion: 'Mount Everest is the highest mountain above sea level.'
A fact
提示Could you check it in an atlas?
为什么A fact can be proved. Everest's height can be measured.
- 'Pizza is the tastiest food in the world.' Which word marks this as an opinion?
tastiest
提示Which word is a judgement rather than something measurable?
为什么Taste is a matter of personal view, so 'tastiest' cannot be proved.
- What is the short opening section before chapter one, which sets up the story, called?
A prologue
提示Its start is like 'pro-' in 'proceed': coming earlier.
为什么Many novels use one to set the scene, hint at a mystery or show an earlier event.
- Which quotation best supports the point 'Tom is generous'? A: 'He pressed his last pound into the old man's hand.' B: 'Tom walked home along the canal.'
A
提示Which one is on topic?
为什么A shows Tom giving away money. B says nothing about his character.
