阅读理解在高考150分中占40分。其实，“语言知识运用”的得分同样取决于我们的阅读水平，如果我们不能正确理解完形填空和语法填空题的文章，就没法做好这两道题，这部分在150分中占45分。阅读理解和语言知识运用两部分的分数加起来就在150分中占85分。因此，阅读能力是决定高考分数高低或胜负的关键，每个考生都要特别重视。

在高考有限的时间内如何既能快速阅读文章，达到高考的要求呢？

首先，我们必须克服不良阅读习惯：逐字阅读一篇文章，阅读时头跟着视线从左到右移动，小声读，把读的内容翻译成汉语等等。

其次，我向大家介绍我们通过区、市和省的课题“中学生高效英语学习策略实证研究——基于Oxford语言学习策略分类法”研究，总结出的高效英语学习策略——“形象法”。

为了使我们主管文字的左半脑和主管图像和想象力的右半脑一起工作，使记忆力达到最好的效果，我们使用“形象法”。“形象法（Using visualimagery）”，也就是把我们读到和听到的内容可视化，头脑想象读到或听到内容的情景和画面，从而使枯燥的记忆变得生动有趣，使我们能清楚容易地记住知识而不忘记，因为图片能在我们的记忆中留下很深的印象。

怎样使用“形象法”阅读英语文章呢？一边默读理解，一边在头脑里想象阅读内容的情景和画面，进入文章的情景。这样，有助于快速阅读和理解文章。如：

To be a good teacher， you need some of the gifts of a good actor； you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience； you must be a clear speaker， with a good， strong， pleasing voice which is fully under your control； and you must be able to act what you are teaching， in order to make its meaning clear.

Watch a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still before his class： he stands the whole time he is teaching； he walks about， using his arms， hands and fingers to help him in his explanations， and his face to express feelings. Listen to him， and you will hear the loudness， the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.

The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage， for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart； he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part， even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.

A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play：they ask and answer questions， they obey orders， and if they dont understand something， they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience， which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart， but must invent it as he goes along.

I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
