34、 the passage/paragraph? 具体解题方法可以有以下三步: 1. 识别文体,找主题句。不同文体的文章,主题句在不同的位置。如新闻报道类文章导语提携全文,主题句常在文章的首段;说明文同样如此;议论文一般为总分总模式,主题句(作者的观点)常在首段或末段(作者观点的重申),偶尔也可在一段文章中间;记叙文中一般没有明显的主题句,考生要特别关注记叙文六要素,读出作者要表达的主题;而夹叙夹议类文章主题句则常在议论中。 2. 关注文章中的连词和高频词。文中出现的连词(转折but/ however,因果 so/ therefore),或一些常见但在文章中间出现有一定目的的词(in fact,

35、the study shows that. . . ,for example,in short),这些词后面所阐述的往往就是主题句。有的文章无明显主题句,主题句隐含在段意之中,这就需要对文章每段的段意进行归纳,在段落大意的基础上再进一步加工概括出文章的中心思想。另外,关注高频词 (特别注意其他问题中出现的高频词)。高频词往往反映出文章的中心思想。3. 推敲选项,排除干扰。推敲选项正误的小窍门: (1)根据第一步寻找主题句,找出关键词,与四个选项进行匹配,选出最合适的答案。(2)正确选项常含有概括性的词语。(3)正确选项一般不含绝对意义的词。(4)正确选项应能起概括作用,内容全面。 (5)四个选

36、项中,内容相近或完全相反的两个选项中往往有一个是正确答案。二、文章标题类 与中心思想类题目稍有不同,文章标题是对文章中心思想的精炼概括。文章标题不仅要准确概括全文中心思想,同时具有简洁性和醒目性。解答这类题时,首先总结归纳出文章中心思想,然后根据选项和文章中心思想的对应确定最佳标题。三、写作目的类 我们可以根据文章的主旨和体裁来判断作者的写作目的,因此,文章的首尾段或每段的首尾是阅读的重点,作者的写作意图往往就隐含在其中。 阅读理解B篇第7题,属于主旨要义题中的文章中心思想类。文章体裁属于新闻报道,故第一段开门见山介绍文章的中心思想。根据第一段和选项B中的对应可确定答案为B项。阅读理解A篇第4

37、题,属于主旨要义题中的文章标题类。文章是夹叙夹议文。此类文章的主题句常出现在文末的议论部分。根据最后一段中的and he had just taught me the same lesson. 为主题句,根据主题句可推断出C项为最佳标题。语法填空阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Chinese athletes have made important contributions 1. the Olympic Games.
