1. 段落大意题
这类题考的就是一段话的中心思想,也就是这一段到底在讲什么。
一、什么是主题句?
一段话里最关键、最概括的话,我们叫它主题句(topic sentence)。
特点:概括性强、句子简单
其他句子的作用:都是来解释、支撑、举例子、补充说明主题句的。
简单说:一句总领全段,其他全是配角。
二、主题句一般在哪?
主题句位置主要有三个:
段首:开门见山,先亮观点,再展开讲。
段尾:先解释、先举例,最后总结。
段中:先铺垫,再亮观点,再继续补充。
段首 + 段尾呼应:开头点题,结尾再重申一遍。
四、解题步骤(给学生的四步法)
1.先读题干:明确问哪一段的大意
2.重点看:段首句 + 段尾句
3.抓关键词:找出重复出现、概括性强的词
4. 对比选项:选概括整段的,排除只讲细节、太片面、太绝对的选项。
注意:
做段落大意题,一定要首尾兼顾!
千万不要逐字逐句翻译,不然很容易被细节带偏
段落大意题口诀:
一段一个中心句,概括全段是主题。
常见位置首和尾,偶尔中间来亮起。
做题先看首和尾,抓住框架不费力。
真题典例
It should be noted that none of the items on wastED’s menu was technically made from garbage. Instead, all the ingredients (配料) used were examples of meat cuts and produce that most restaurants would never consider serving.Things like kale ribs,fish collars,rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated and, with the help of a number of good chefs, turned into excellent cuisine.
( ) 34.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Why the ingredients 配料 were used.
B. Which dishes were best liked.
C. What the dishes were made of.
D. Where the ingredients 、 were bought.
C
2.文章大意题
文章大意题,就是让你用一句话概括整篇文章的核心内容,考的是两个能力:1. 速读中快速抓重点、不被细节带偏的能力。2. 深层理解全文、归纳概括中心思想的能力
核心逻辑:一篇合格的文章,每一段都围绕同一个大主题展开,把每段的中心(主题句)串起来,就是全文的大意。
高频提问方式:
What is the passage mainly about?(这篇文章主要讲了什么?)
What is the main idea of the passage?(这篇文章的主旨是什么?)
What does the passage mainly discuss?(这篇文章主要讨论了什么?)
The passage is mainly concerned with .(这篇文章主要关于)
技巧图解
6 个快速找主旨的高分技巧:
1. 读首段,知大意
适用:说明文、新闻报道、议论文(这类文章开门见山,首段直接点明全文核心)
技巧:首段第一句大概率就是全文主题句
2. 读尾段,知大意
适用:故事类记叙文
技巧:记叙文的主旨常藏在结尾,最后一段会升华主题、点明中心
3. 读中段,知大意
适用:首段只做铺垫的文章
技巧:首段先举例子、谈现象,真正的主旨在中间段落
4. 读句子,知大意
技巧:遇到长难句,主句就是主题句,只看主句就能抓段落核心
5. 注意重复词
技巧:作者反复说的观点 = 主旨,反复出现的词 = 全文关键词,看到重复词直接锁定主题
6. 留心转折 / 总结提示词(超级信号词!)
真题典例
We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family.
Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school.The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically,it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest,users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover,having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides杀虫剂 and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office,they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic.“We are passionate about reducing waste,carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.
( )31.What does the text mainly talk about?
A.BMF’s major strengths 优势.
B.BMF’s general management 日常运营管理.
C.BMF’s global influence 全球影响力.
D.BMF’s technical standards 技术标准.
A
3.标题归纳题
一、先搞懂:标题归纳题考什么?
标题,就是文章中心思想的最精炼表达,相当于文章的 “眼睛”。
这类题考的是:你能不能在读懂全文的基础上,用判断、归纳、概括的方法,提炼出最贴合全文主旨的标题,本质是对文章中心思想的高度浓缩。
二、高考怎么考?
What is the best title for the text?(这篇文章的最佳标题是什么?)
Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
(下列哪一项最适合做文章的标题?)
What would be the most suitable title for the passage?
(哪个标题最适合这篇文章?)
四、4 个高分解题技巧
1. 关键词法
文章里反复出现的词语 / 观点,就是体现主旨的关键词。比如全文都在讲 “环保”,标题里大概率会有 “environmental protection”。
2. 主题句法
先找到文章的主题句(一般在首段 / 尾段),从主题句里提炼核心词,直接对应标题。比如主题句是 “Reading benefits teenagers a lot”,标题就会围绕 “阅读对青少年的好处” 展开。
3. 穿珠连串法
把文章的各个细节串起来,找它们的共同点,这个共同点就是全文主旨,也就是标题的核心。比如细节分别是 “早起的好处、运动的好处、早睡的好处”,共同点就是 “健康的生活习惯”,标题就围绕这个核心。
4. 逆向思维法
把四个选项分别代入,思考:如果我是作者,用这个标题会写什么内容?再对照原文,和原文内容最匹配的就是最佳选项。
五、3 种绝对错误的选项
1. 离题太远:和文章主旨完全不沾边,风马牛不相及
2. 断章取义 / 无中生有:只抓了文章的一句话,或者原文根本没提的内容
3. 以偏概全:只对应某一段的内容,不能概括全文,把细节当主旨
真题典例
(2025·新高考全国Ⅱ卷,C篇)
When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn’t have high hopes for it. But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an explosion in the houseplant industry.
“Plants are in fashion right now,” says Dr.Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida. “People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating,” she says. “Adding more nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol,the stress hormone (激素) in our body.
“Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants,” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.”
If you’re among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don’t beat yourself up if one (or a few!) doesn’t make it. “Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one,” Detrinidad says.
( ) 31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Time to Replace更换 Houseplants 室内植物
B. Plants Boost 提升,改善 Your Mood
C. Tips 技巧 on Choosing Houseplants
D. Plants Brighten Your Home 植物点亮 / 美化你的家
B
答案及剖析:B 标题归纳题。文章第一段以Detrinidad的成功为例引出室内植物行业的兴起;第二段和第三段通过Knuth的研究发现,说明植物能通过降低皮质醇水平改善心情、降低请病假的比率,从而提高生产率;第四段鼓励人们尝试养植物。全文围绕“植物对情绪和健康的积极影响”展开。B项最能概括文章主旨,适合作为文章的标题。故选B。
