高考英语阅读理解文本改编对比分析——以2023年全国Ⅰ、Ⅱ、甲、乙卷为例

A Contrastive Analysis of the Adaptation of English Reading Comprehension Texts in the College Entrance Examination:A Case Study of Papers I,II,A and B in 2023

收集2023年新高考Ⅰ卷、新高考Ⅱ卷、全国甲卷、全国乙卷高考英语阅读理解部分文本15篇及对应源文本,利用专业文本对比工具Beyond Compare和“阅读分级指难针”对以下内容进行分析:(1)改编前后段落数、词数和难度数值的变化;(2)主要改编方式;(3)改编后文本在词汇和句法上的特征。研究发现,命题人使用删冗余、改难词、减差异、调顺序等方式改编后,词数、段落数、难度均大幅下降。因此建议教师在日常教学中,应强化价值引领,体现时代性,选择与高考难度相近的语篇,适当拓展课外内容。

This paper compares 15 reading comprehension texts and their source texts from the new college entrance examination I,II,and the national college entrance examination A and B.Using Beyond Compare and a reading grading pointer,it analyzes(1)changes in paragraph count,word count,and difficulty after adaptation,(2)main adaptation methods,and(3)lexical and syntactic features of adapted texts.By collecting data,comparing similarities and differences before and after adaptation,and studying adaptation methods,it provides practical references for future test question adaptation and college entrance examination preparation.The study shows that after adaptation,word count,paragraph count,and difficulty are significantly reduced through deletion of redundancy,changing difficult words,reducing variance,and reordering.It suggests that in daily teaching,teachers should strengthen value guidance,reflect the times,choose texts with similar difficulty to the college entrance examination,appropriately expand extracurricular content,and fully utilize the educational function and positive"baton"role of the college entrance examination.
