细节理解题是英语阅读理解最重要的一类题型。它的的答案往往不是文章中的细节在选项中的简单重复，而是根据文中的细节经过合理的推理或转化得出的。按照答案在原文中出现的位置，细节理解题可以分为集中型细节理解题和分散型细节理解题。

（1）集中型：就文章的单个细节提问，答案在原文中出现的位置一般也位于单句话或几句话中。

（2）分散型：题目涉及到文章某一段或几段，甚至贯穿全文的各个位置，需要同学们寻找文章中的多个细节。需要注意的是分散型细节理解题并不意味着题目的正确答案出现在文章的不同位置，正确答案往往也是关于文章的某一个句子或细节。只是说文章的干扰选项是关于不同的细节，需要我们在定位的时候阅读某一个区域。本篇阅读的第二题We can learn from Paragraph 3 that ____就属于细节理解题。它属于分散型的细节理解题，四个选项都出自第三段的细节。第三段中的细节Some waited more than nine hours for a try-out in the booth,according to library management.说明A选项Some people waited for a long time to read in the booth正确。B选项March 4 was the first day of the opening of Shanghai Library的相关细节在文中March 4 – the first day of the booth's opening to the public in Shanghai这一句中，但原文表达的意思是“三月四号是上海的阅读亭对公众开放的第一天”，而不是上海图书馆开放的第一天，所以B选项错误。C选项On March 4,200 people read in the booth的相关细节在文章A crowd of more than 200 people were pictured lining up outside the Shanghai Library at 11 am on March 4这一句中，但原文中的more than说明C选项错误。D选项The time for registrations was lengthened for three and a half hours的相关细节在文章The deadline for registrations was brought forward to 2 pm instead of the scheduled 5:30 pm这一句中。但分析原文细节可知登记的截止时间从计划中的五点半提前到两点，并不是延长三个半小时。和D选项表达的意思相反。
