核心考点1：综合细节判断题
【考情分析】
综合细节题的考点在阅读理解部分的核心考点，而且占据题量的比例约有40%左右，每年都不少于8题。由于综合细节题考点涉及面广，包括因果判断，人物话语判断，时间判断，地点方位判断和源由判断等考点。难度不大，但很灵活，只有少数考点难度为中等。
【考点点津】
综合细节判断是文章必不可少的有机组成部分，也是作者阐述思想和叙述故事的一些具体手段。若要准确理解文章，必须要关注细节，包括人名、日期、事实、地点和数据等。这类考点是针对短文特殊语境中的特定细节而设置的，不过有些细节考点是根据数个细节和短文主要事实综合来进行命制的。若要精准地解决这类问题，考生应学会用英语解释英语的阅读习惯，再则这类考点一般涉及面较广，只要抓住细节内容，仔细研读，再做分析、甄别和筛选即可。
【应试策略】
如何做到准确地判断这类综合细节判断考点题呢?考生在阅读时须做到细辨信息比较甄别和整体局部相互融合的阅读思考手段。
具体应试策略技巧如下：
① 首先快速确定短文主题以及不同信息间的差异;
② 再先从题干中找出关键词，通过略读和寻读技巧找到考点所在细节出处，然后将该部分内容研读一遍，细心甄别彼此差异，力求精准理解后作出抉择。
③ 确定答案后，须回读原文，再次甄别有效和无效信息，细辨动作先后，因果和目的关系，对一些数据进行必要的推算，或对文章一些信息进行重组推断，惟此，答案将会一目了然
简言之，综合细节判断题的解题关键是关注于细节有关联的本段内容。也就是说，关注与本段内容有关的内容或细节出处的前后相关句子的真正含义。
【经典题例】(2011-山东)
Arthur Miller (1915~2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller’s father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary, drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s.
Miller’s most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with his worth. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics` Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway
