深国交入学考试英语阅读理解占据大量分值，占用时间也最多，阅读理解的文章类型有很多，下面欧美公学收集整理了一片关于英语阅读理解的记叙文的阅读策略与范例。请看下面内容。
阅读理解选择答案总体思路与原则所选有据，避免主观 阅读他人作品，理解他人的意图，必须以作者的思维模式为准绳，以原文提供的事实、细节逻辑关系为自己思维活动的基准点，切忌把自己的观点和看法与原文或作者的观点和看法混为一谈，自以为是。文章中的数字、日期、时间、表限量的词或短语等都是设题的重点，若只注意明显的内容，正好走进实的陷阱。若不注意虚的内容，想当然答题多半会错。因此，必须学会“虚实结合”2符合原文的答案＝正确答案≠最佳答案阅读题要求选的是最佳答案，有的答案从某个枝节来看是对，但从全文来看则不是最佳的。因此，必须通盘考虑，取主题，舍枝节。3解题有法，但无定法，贵在得法。要答好阅读理解题，必须多读、巧读和善于思考。要不断扩大词汇量，拓宽阅读面，提高阅读速度，同时也要探索和总结适合自己方法或，实践出真知，多练出效益。记叙文的阅读方法无论哪一种记叙文作者都要交代何人何时何地为什么、怎么样、干了何事等等，这也就是我们常说的“5Ws and 1H”。这是我们在阅读记叙文时要首先了解的，接着按照线索弄清事情的来龙去脉，就能理解整个故事。
特别值得注意的是：记叙文的叙事顺序有顺叙和倒叙两种，有时候作者为了吸引读者会采用倒叙的方法，即不按照事情发展的先后顺序来叙述，而是从最重要、最能引人入胜的事件开始，然后再回过头来追叙故事的开端和经过。阅读时要学会从事情本身的发展去理解故事情节而不要只看事件在文中出现的先后位置。
另外，讲故事必定有其目的：或证明某一理论，或阐明某一概念，或赞美某种美德，或谴责某种罪恶等等。我们在阅读时要通过作者的重要细节描写联系故事情节去领会作者的意图，对作者重墨泼就的细节描写要重点关注。
概括起来一句话：读记叙文的关键是抓情节。 抓住了故事情节，就理解了文章的脉络，其他的就迎刃而解了。
下面请阅读一篇记叙文，看看你能不能抓住故事的主要情节。
A篇 Compassion isa desire within us to help others．With effort,we can translate compassion into action．An experiencelast weekend showed me this is true．I workpart-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly．These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard tolose patience over their slowness．But lastSunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson．This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机) with a box of biscuits．He said hewas out of cash(现金), had just moved into hisroom, and had nothing in his cupboards．He asked ifwe could let him have the food on trust．He promisedto repay me the next day．
I couldn’t help staring at him．I wonderedwhat kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he wouldbe like if luck had gone his way．I had a hurtin my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world．I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me todo so．I felt stupid and unkindsaying this, but I valued my job．
Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up．If anything, he looked more pitiable．“Charge it to me,” was all he said． What I had been feeling was pity．Pity is softand safe and easy．Compassion, on the otherhand, is caring in action．I thanked thesecond man but told him that was not allowed either．Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself．I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached intomy heart and taught me compassion.
解析：故事采用顺叙的叙事方法，主要情节发展如下： One aged gentleman begged me tohave the food on trust and promised to repay the next day. ---- I told him thestore rules didn’t allow me to do so. ---- Another man wanted me to charge thefood to him. ----I paid for the biscuits myself. 作者用第一人称讲述自己亲身经历的这段故事，让人觉得亲切可信，同时也增强了文章的感染力。 作者说自己通过这段故事学会了compassion（同情），事实上也是在号召读者多伸出同情之手，共建和谐社会。 抓住了故事的情节，了解了作者的写作意图。再来做理解题，就容易多了。 请看看下面几道理解题：
1．The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits ______.
A．promised to obey thestore rules B．forgot to take any moneywith him C．hoped to have the food firstand pay later D．could not affordanything more expensive
