10 六选四
选句填空"(俗称"六选四")是2017年上海高考英语试卷中启用的题型。根据题目要求,学生需从所给的六个选项中选取四个填入文中的空格处,使文章从内容、语言、结构上都符合逻辑。
一、英语文章主题句常出现的位置
(一)段落主题句
文章是由段落构成的。段落是由围绕一个中心思想的一个或几个有逻辑关系的句子组成的。就结构 和内容而言,段落是相对完整的,篇章是通过各个段落的中心思想来表现其主题的。一般来讲,一个段落只有一个中心思想,即一个主题。段落中的其他句子都是用来说明、支持和扩展这一主题的。题句所限定或概括的内容不外乎有两点:
一,是有助于读者更好的理解下文。多数段落都是以主题句打头 ,开门见山,点明主题,然后再展开具 体细节。
二,是总结全段内容,以便给读者更深刻的印象,供托效果,达到高潮。
(二)主题句的位置
根据表达需要,英语主题句的位置是灵活多变的。一般来讲,主题句可以位于段首、段中、段尾及段前段尾。
1、段首主题句。在大多数情况下,主题句位于段首,开门见山,点明主题,其它各句都紧紧 围绕着主题句遂步展开。

It maybe just the job for usher" ing someone out of your life altogether ; but most leave-takings-for better or worse-are temporary affairs. perhaps in an attempt to escape implications of finality,many people now say (Bye bye' instead; others try to make this particularly nauseating bit of baby-talk more acceptable by shortening it to "Bye".
2、段中主题句。主题句位于段落中间,这种情况相对较少。
Shortly after the war ended, Lincoln was shot while attending a play in a Washington theater. He died within a few hours. The uncontrolled emotional reaction of the nation to his death was almost unbelievable and demonstrated the deep esteem in which he was held. Newspapers were edged with black; religious leaders gave praise of Lincoln instead of their prepared sermons. His funeral procession in Washington was miles long Lin coin's body was taken by train back to his former home in spring field, Illinois, but in all the major cities through which the train passed , the coffin was paraded through streets lined with sorrowful thousands. In the small towns through which the train passed , bells rang in honor of the dead President. Citizens lit torches a- long the railroad track to show their last respects.
3、段尾主题句。主题句放在段落 末尾 ,目的是总结、概括前面展开阐述的问题,以加深印象,供托效果。
When we watch a person walk away from us, his image shrinks in size. But since we know that he is
