阅读判断题是一种比较新的题型。它考查应试者判断识别文章所提供的信息的能力。考试方式为，给出一篇300～450词的短文，根据短文列出7个句子，有的句子提供了正确的信息，有的句子提供了错误的信息，有的句子的信息在短文中并未直接或间接提及，要求应试者根据短文的内容对每个句子做出判断。
与传统正误判断题的做法不同的是，该题型增加了一个选项，这样就降低了猜测的因素，增加了题目的难度，提高了题目的区分度。上面讲到，这种题型的考点是考查应试者判断识别文章所提供的信息的能力。但注意这里所指的"信息"，既有文章中明示的信息，也有藏在字里行间中的信息，即隐含信息，因此，考生在做这部分题目时，需要仔细阅读。请看下例：Hercules Once upon a time there was a great Greek hero， Hercules. He was taller and stronger than anyone you have ever seen. On his shoulder he carried a club and in his hand he held a bow （弓）。 He was known as the hero of a hundred adventures. Hercules served a king. The king was afraid of him. So again and again he sent him on difficult tasks. One morning the king sent for him and told him to fetch three golden apples for him from the garden of the Singing Maidens （歌女）。 But no one knew where the garden was. So Hercules went away. He walked the whole day and the next day and the next. He walked for months before he saw mountains far in the distance one fine morning. One of the mountains was in the shape of a man， with long， long legs and arms and huge shoulders and a huge head. He was holding up the sky. Hercules knew it was Atlas， the Mountain God. So he asked him for help. Atlas answered， "My head and arms and shoulders all ache. Could you hold up the sky while I fetch the golden apples for you？" Hercules climbed the mountain and shouldered the sky. Soon the sky grew very heavy. When finally Atlas came back with three golden apples， he said， "Well， you are going to carry the mountain for ever. I'm going to see the king with the apples." Hercules knew that he couldn't fight him because of the sky on his back， So he shouted："Just one minute's help. My shoulders are hurting， Hold the sky for a minute while I make a cushion （垫子） for my shoulders." Atlas believed him. He threw down the apples and held up the sky. Hercules picked up the apples and ran back to see the king. 1. Hercules was the tallest man in the world. A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned 2. Hercules worked in the king's garden. A. Right B.

Not mentioned这篇短文有300字，属于故事性材料。主人公是古代希腊的一位英雄，名叫Hercules.本文通过Hercules为国王去取金苹果这个情节，叙述了他如何与山神Atlas斗智，最后成功地为国王取回金苹果。为了阐述短文的主题，作者通过一个小故事展开叙述，主要情节有国王害怕Hercules，所以总是给他派难活，并且设置了一个圈套，让他去取金苹果，想借此除掉他。Hercules听从了国王的话，跋山涉水为其寻找金苹果，路遇山神Atlas，Atlas双肩撑天很累，引诱Hercules替其撑天。Hercules因轻信了Atlas的话而上当，但最后还是以智取胜，为国王取回了金苹果。
短文后第一题句子的意思是：在这个世界上，Hercules的个子最高。短文中有这样一句话：He was taller and stronger than anyone you have ever seen.显然，第一题是这句话的翻版，句子不～样，一个用的是比较级，一个用的是最高级，但意思完全一样。所以本句话是正确的。故答案为A.
第二题的意思是说Hercules在国王的花园里工作。阅读短文后我们得知，Hercules侍奉国王，但并未说他到底在哪里工作。题句所说的意思文中找不到，也就是说，短文没有足够的信息来证明他在国王的花园里工作。故答案为选项C.
第三题句子的意思是：国王想除掉Hercules，所以交给他很多艰巨的工作去做。这个信息在短文第二段第二旬和第三旬中提到了，与短文的意思相符（国王很害怕Hercules，多次交给他艰巨的工作去做），由此可以推断第三题的正确选项为A.
第四题句子的意思是：Atlas是个撑天巨人。这句话也是正确的。因为文中有这样一句话：He was holding up the sky.Hercules knew it was Atlas，the Mountain God.所以本题正确答案为A.第五题句子的意思是：Atlas比Hercules跑得快。读遍文章，我们没有找到相关信息，很明显，本题答案为选项C.
第六题句子的意思是：Atlas自己想当国王，所以他为Hercules取来了金苹果。这句话与文中叙述的事实不符。文中讲到，Atlas替Hercules取金苹果，是因为他在那里撑天撑得太累了。所以，本题选项B为正确答案。
第七题句子的意思是：Hercules最后打败了Atlas，取到了金苹果。这句话也与文中叙述的事实不符。文中说，Hercules因轻信了Atlas的话而上当，但最后他还是以智取胜，为国王取回了金苹果，而不是通过两人的决斗。所以选项B为本题的正确答案。
