这是阅读把握文本的基础，只有在全面了解文本内容的基础之上才能更好地探究题目所要求的深层含义。

如第1，2题考查主要事件，我们可以换成这样的表达方式，1.Who is Mr. Green? 2. What does Frank always get from Mr. Green on weekends?第3，4题考查作者的思想、情感，可以这样表达：What does Frank think of his job?/What is Frank's attitude towards his job? 第5题考查工作成绩，同样可以说成：From the passage we can know that Frank____?这些（who,when,where,what,how,why）都是阅读记叙文时要把握的基本细节,关注文中这些信息，就很容易做题。
