2013高考英语二轮阅读理解（三月）强化训练04及答案
(3)
If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.

In short, I will make efforts to do well my favorite job teaching.
1. 直接推断题。
直接推断题目是目前阅读考试坚持深层理解的主要题型。要求学生理解文章的表层意义，紧扣文章的具体事实，综合利用文章提供的信息，做出合乎逻辑的推理。题中常含有：imply, suggest, conclude等。 2. 依据文章的论述推断作者的观点、意图和态度以及写作手法的题目。
虽不含infer, imply等推断词，但也需要考生推断和识别，因此可以称为含蓄推断题。作者的观点、意图和态度有主观和客观两种。主观态度一般只能从字里行间推断出来。要特别注意作者在文章中的措辞，尤其是表达感情色彩的形容词，在客观描述中，作者的态度往往
