Activity 1
Identifying the main idea and details
一、 Definition 定义
Main idea(主旨)
段落的核心总话题,是作者想要表达的总观点或总问题。它概括整段内容,不局限于某一个小事例。
Details(细节)
支撑主旨的具体信息,可以是事例、事实、描述。用来解释、说明主旨,回答主旨提出的问题。
Activity 1
Identifying the main idea and details
二、主旨与细节区分
Main idea(主旨)
总,覆盖面大,统领全部内容。删掉细节,主旨依然成立。
Details(细节)
主旨
细节
例: How do deaf children learn to sign the letters in ASL?
(听障儿童如何学习美国手语字母)
A is like an apple. / B is like a desk. / C is like a cat.
辨析:A is like an apple 只是其中一个例子,只能说明字母 A,概括不了整段,所以它是细节,不是主旨。

Identifying the main idea and details
三、做题技巧
技巧 1:完成主旨填空
①通读全文,抓住整篇段落的讨论话题。
②主旨要能够覆盖全部细节,不能只匹配某一处例子。
③优先看段落总起句,寻找原文核心动词 / 名词,不自己造词。
例题:How do deaf children learn to ____ the letters in ASL?
原文:This is how deaf children learn to sign the letters in ASL.
sign

三、做题技巧
技巧 2:完成细节填空
①根据题干关键词,回原文定位句子。
②答案优先摘抄原文原词,不要主观改写。
③每条细节只对应一个小点,细节之间多为并列关系。
例题:C is like a ____.
原文:C is like a cat.
cat

三、做题技巧
技巧 3:主旨‑细节匹配检验(做完必核查)
填空结束问自己两个问题:
所有细节,是不是都在回答 / 解释主旨?
如果去掉所有细节,主旨句子本身是否依然通顺合理。
如果细节和主旨话题脱节,说明答案有误。

三、做题技巧
技巧 4:避坑提醒
不要把单个例子、局部信息当成主旨。
主旨管全部,细节管局部。
做题步骤总结
读短文,把握整体话题 → 填写主旨空
利用题干线索回原文定位 → 填写各个细节空
检验:全部细节是否围绕主旨展开。

Activity 1
Look at the picture and read the text. Underline the new word
and circle the text clue, and then infer the meaning of the word.
What the word means:
How I infer:
By using a text clue. I circle it.

Activity 1
Making inferences
1. 什么是 making inferences(词义推断)
阅读遇到生词,不查字典,依靠文章给出的线索,推理出生词大概含义,是阅读必备技巧,也是阅读理解词义猜测题的核心方法。
2. 两类猜词线索
① Text clues 上下文语境线索
生词前后的句子、故事情节、图片信息。
用法:读懂前后句子逻辑,结合生活常识猜词义。
例:Activity1,通过 sing song 推断 lyrics。
Activity 1
Making inferences
② Prefixes & suffixes 词缀线索
prefix 前缀:加在单词开头,改变词义,例:un‑(不‑),re‑(再‑)
suffix 后缀:加在单词末尾,改变词性,例:‑tion,‑less,‑ful
例:unhappy = un (不)+happy (开心) →不开心
3. 标准化做题四步骤
Find the new word 定位文中的生词
Find clues 寻找线索:上下文句子 / 图片 / 前缀后缀
Make inferences 根据线索推理猜测词义
Check:把猜测的词义放回原句通读,验证句子逻辑通顺
Activity 2
Read the text. Circle the text clue for each word in the table andexplain its meaning by using another word or phrase from the text.
Do you know that if you imitate how someone talks, you’ll understand what they say better? Imitating is a very useful skill. It can help you better comprehend the speech. To learn a new language, it’s best to copy the native speakers. And if you want to learn the language faster, don’t just copy how your partner talks. Try to use this imitation method and copy his body language as well. In this way, you’ll sound like a native very soon.
