07 试题类型之主旨大意题
【题型策略释疑】
【试题特征】
主旨大意题主要考查考生把握全文主题和理解中心思想的能力,它要求考生在理解全文的基础上对文章进行高度的概括或总结。其考查范围主要包括三个方面,即怎样理解文段的主旨大意、怎样选择恰当的文章标题及怎样捕捉作者的态度和意图。
【答题技巧】
(1)文段的主旨大意的理解
常见的设问方式:
The passage is mainly about _________________.
The first paragraph mainly tells us ____________
What is the text mainly about?
理解文段的主旨大意,找准文章或段落的主题句是关键。主题句在文章的位置通常有三种情况:主题句在文章开头,即先点出主题,然后围绕这一主题作具体的陈述。主题句在结尾。用归纳法写的文章,结尾的句子起着总结归纳、画龙点睛的作用。主题句在中间。通常前面只提出问题,文中的主题由随之陈述的细节在文中导出,当主题句出现后,又进一步用细节支持说明。
(2) 选择恰当的标题
常见的设问形式:
The best title for this passage is _______.
Which of the following is the best title?
What would be the best title for the text?
标题是段落中心思想的精练表达形式。它的特点是:覆盖性强,一般要求能囊括文章的主要内容;精确性强,其确定的范围要恰当,既不能太大,也不能太小,要量体裁衣,大小适度;短小精练,多为一短语。在阅读全文的基础上,要仔细考虑所设题干哪一项与文章主题有密切的联系,再看它对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何。要防止本末倒置,主次不分,以点代面,以偏概全。
(3)推断作者的态度和意图
常见的设问形式:
What is the author’s main purpose in this passage?
The passage is trying to ___________________.
The writer's attitude toward......is _______________________.
作者对事实的描述或提传递的信息,不管他的意图是什么,其观点和态度都不可避免地在文章中反映出来。这就要求考生在阅读时应特别注意文章的措辞,尤其是表达感情色彩的形容词以及作者对人物语言、行为和思想的描写,从中领悟作者的写作意图和态度。
【策略运用】
One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.
A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband’s patience for putting up with her continuous talk. Distracted by their noise, I moved on.
I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant burst of words, I moved away quickly.
I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a purchase when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.
