主旨大意题解题指导(2016.06)主旨大意题是中考阅读理解的主要题型之一,旨在考查考生对段落大意或者文章中心思想的把握和归纳能力。该题也是中考阅读中的重点和难点,这类题往往针对段落或短文的subject(主题)、mainidea(中心思想)、title(题目)或purpose(目的)来命题。因为词汇、句式、文化背景等原因,有相当一部分同学对文章的理解会出现一定偏差,从而不能很好地解答这类题目。这类题的解题关键是采用快速阅读法浏览全文,寻找文章的关键词或中心句。关键词即在文中频繁出现的词;中心句通常出现在文章的开头、结尾部分和各个段落的首尾。因为考生需要读完全文才能把握文章主旨,解答此类题时,不妨把它作为最后一道来做。主旨大意题常见的提问方式有下列几种:1.What’sthetopicofthearticle?2.Whatisthepassagemainlyabout?3.What’sthemainideaofthepassage?4.Whatcanwelearnfromthepassage?5.Whatisthebesttitle/headlineforthispassage?6.Thewriter’spurposeinwritingthisstoryis______.7.Inthepassagetheauthorwantstotell______.那么如何解这类题呢?下面,结合今年中考试题以及多年的教学经验,提供一些基本的方法来帮助大家。一、设问方式有哪些?大意类:1.Whatisthepassagemainlyabout?2.Themainideaofthepassageis_____.3.Thefirst/second/last...paragraphismainlyabout_____.标题类:1.Whatisthebesttitleforthepassage?2.Thebesttitleforthispassagemightbe_____.3.Thebestheadlineforthispassagecouldbe_____.目的型:1.Theauthorsmainpurposeisto_____.’2.Thepassageismeantto_____.3.Thepurposeofthisarticleisto_____.二、高分攻略看过来!每篇文章都有它的写作结构,如果我们能抓住文章的结构,找到文章的主题句,就能轻而易举地把握文章的中心大意,所以找准主题句,对于获取文章大意尤其重要。精品学习资料可选择pdf第1页,共9页-----------------------
1.寻找主题句一般来说,文章的主题句有以下几种位置:(1)atthebeginning(2)attheend(3)atthebeginningandattheend(4)inthemiddleofthepassage(5)nocleartopicsentence2.排除干扰项一般来说,干扰项有以下特点:(1)主观臆测,并非作者的观点(2)范围过大,过于笼统(3)范围过小,以偏概全(4)文中未提及,找不到出处三、考查类型及解题技巧有哪些?1.段落大意类【例1:内蒙古呼和浩特】Forjust$38,youcanhelponepersonsee;for$380,10peoplecansee;$1,300helpstrainadoctornewskills;andfor$13,000youcanprovideatrainingprogramforagroupofdoctorswhocanmakethousandsofblindpeopleseeagain.Yourlovecanhelpthemopentheireyestotheworld.Thelastparagraphismainlyabout_____.A.howmuchatrainingprogramforagroupofdoctorscostsB.whyORBISneedsyourhelptocontinuetheirworkC.whocanmakethousandsofblindpeopleseeagainD.whatyoucandotohelpblindpeopleopentheireyes【解析】D。段落举出几个例子,说明不同的金钱额度可以为盲人做到的事情。A和C选项分别是其中某一例子,不能概括全段。B选项的意思是ORBIS需要你的帮助,借此呼吁读者,故B选项不正确。【解题方法】提取关键词。关键词是在文章或段落中反复出现,甚至其它说明内容都为之服务的词语。段落中重复出现的词语有you,can,help(以及provide,在此表达意义相近)。找到关键词,我们就会发现,该段落的每一句话都站在读者“你”的角度,以“你能做某事来帮助盲人”为句子中心,呼吁读者做出自己的贡献。然后再综合四个选项,只有D选项包含了全部三个关键词。【例2:山东烟台卷】ThomasEdisonlituptheworldwithhisinventionoftheelectriclight.Withouthim,theworldmightstillbeinthedark.However,theelectriclightwasnothisonlyinvention.Healsoinventedthemotionpicturecameraandover1,200otherthings.Abouteverytwoweekshecreatedsomethingnew.ThomasEdisonwasbornin1847.Heattendedschoolforonlythreemonths.Hismothertaughthimathome,butThomaswasmostlyself-educated.Hestartedexperimentingatayoungage.精品学习资料可选择pdf第2页,共9页-----------------------

是代词It,很容易判断两个代词It指的是前文提到的Green,是进一步解释说明Green,属于细节内容。第三段第二句的主语Theexpression,用了定冠词,实际上也是指前文提到的内容。跳读方法之二:忽略举例词。第二段中forexample是举例说明的标志词,也就是说,后面的内容举例,用来解释补充前面的观点。在把握主旨大意时,可以适当忽略。以此类推,我们通过跳读,分析出每个段落的主题句。例如这篇文章中,段落的主题句是首句。综合段落大意,每段讲了绿色的不同意义,从而总结出文章的最佳题目。【例4:北京卷】Teenswantstructureintheirlives,whichmeanstheywanttheirliveswell-planned.Tobeginbuildingstructure,teensneedloveandtrust.Theyneedtoknowtheirparentsaretheretogivethemneededloveandsupport(支持).Teenswanttobesurethatnothingcanpreventparentsfromshoulderingtheirresponsibilityforthem–nottheirgrowingmaturity(成熟),misbehavior,norangeratsomethingtheyhavedone.Teenswantparentstokeepcontrolwhileallowingthemtomakesomedecisions.Therearesomewaysyoucanhelpyourteenscreatereasonablestructureandremainclose.........Themostimportantthingstorememberare:talkwithyourteens,listentotheirworriesandoffersuggestionswhenneeded.Thiswillhelpyourteenstoliveawell-organizedlife.Whatisthebesttitleofthepassage?A.TrainingTeenstoBecomeResponsibleAdults.B.HelpingTeenstoBuildReasonableStructure.C.ImprovingtheRelationshipwithYourTeens.D.SteppingintoYourTeensSecretWorld.’【解析】B。观察文章结构,根据第一段中的Teenswantstructureintheirlives,whichmeanstheywanttheirliveswell-planned可知,文章话题是关于well-plannedlife。根据第2段中的Therearesomewaysyoucanhelpyourteenscreatereasonablestructureandremainclose可知,下面讲的是一些方法;根据最后一段中的Thiswillhelpyourteenstoliveawell-organizedlife可知,这句话是对以上内容的总结,所以,不难看出,这两句话是文章的主题句,所以答案选B。选项A的错误在于主观臆测,并非作者所表达的观点;C选项,范围过大,过于笼统;D选项,走进青少年的秘密世界,文中未提及。3.中心思想类【例5:四川宜宾卷】⋯orsomepeople,musicisnofunatall.About4%ofthepopulationiswhatscientistscall“amusic”Peoplewhoareamusicarebornwithouttheabilitytoenjoymusicalnotes.Amusic.peopleoftencannottellthedifferencesbetweentwosongs.Asaresult,songssoundlikenoisetoanamusic.Manyamusicscomparethesoundofmusictopiecesofmetalhittingeachother.Lifecanbehardforamusics...BystudyingpeoplelikeMargaret,scientistsarefinallylearninghowtoidentify(辨别)thisunusualcondition.Scientistssaythatthebrainsofamusicsaredifferentforthoseofpeoplewhocanenjoymusic.精品学习资料可选择pdf第4页,共9页-----------------------

运用排除法排除干扰项,比如主观臆测、过于笼统或以偏概全的选项。在遇到标题类的题目时,我们可以假设自己是作者,检验写作思路是否与原文相符。如果不符,可能就需要重新考虑答案。五、挑战相关练习AIgrewupinNewHampshire,asmalltowninSouthCanada,whereinmyfather’swordsfortheseasonswere“Spring,Summer,FairtimeandWinter!”Atthattime,aweek-longfairwasheldinthetowneveryautumn.Thousandsofpeoplefromothertownscametosellandbuythings.Itwasthebusiesttimeoftheyear.When“Fairtime”came,mygrandmabecamethemost“useful”andbusiestpersonofthefamily.Grandmawasakind,well-educatedoldlady.Shewasgoodatcooking.Allherrelativeslikedthefoodshecooked.During“Fairtime”,theywouldcometoliveinherhouseandhavemealsthere.Grandmawasalwayshappytolookafterthem.Yearafteryear,manypeoplemovedtobigcities.Therewasnoloner“FairtimeGrandma”.becameveryoldandwasgraduallygoingblind.MyparentsandImovedtolivewithGrandmainherhouse.Wedidourbesttomakeherday-to-daylifeascomfortableaspossible.Iwasathighschoolthen.WhatIoftendidathomewastohelpGrandmawiththedailynewspaper’scrosswordpuzzle.However,shedidn’tlookhappy.Sheoftensatinherroomforhours,withoutsayingaword.Toattractpeopletomoveback,theTownHalldecidedtoreopentheFair.Oneday,whenIcamebackfromschool,IsawGrandmawearingherglasses,washingthedishesinthekitchen.Withabigsmileonherface,shelookedalotmuchyounger.Shetoldmethathertwonieceswouldcome.“TheysaidthefoodIcookedwasverydeliciousandtheywanttostayinmyhouseagain,Grandmasaidhappily.“Theywillstayhereforoneweekandwecanhaveabigparty.ThatmustbethebusiestweekI’vehadinyears!”IsuddenlyrealizedthatGrandmadidn’wanttobelookedafter.Shewantedtobet“useful”,appreciatedandhelpful.What’sthebesttitleforthepassage?A.FairtimeB.My“Old”GrandmaC.ASmallTownD.Grandma’sFamilyBIt’sreportedthatacompanycalledMicroCHIPShasdevelopedawirelesslycontrolleddevice(装置).Thedeviceisputundertheskinandcansupplyadrugdirectlyintothepatient’body.sPeoplegivethename“microchips”toit.Microchipsbringgoodnewstopatientswithlong-term(长期的)illnesses,forexample,Osteoporosis(骨质疏松症).PeoplewithOsteoporosishavetogetdailyinjections(注射)of精品学习资料可选择pdf第7页,共9页-----------------------

五、挑战相关练习A【解析】B。快速扫视全文,不难发现文章的中心都是围绕Grandma这个关键词展开的。虽然第一段介绍了Fairtime,但后文并未再出现过,而在此仅仅是为了引入话题。再仔细阅读文章其余各段落可知,主要是介绍祖母的生活的,因此不难总结出文章的标题。B【解析】B。本题考查文章的主旨大意。此类型题目通常需要关注文章的第一段和最后一段,以及各段的首句。本文中,第一段通过hasdevelopedawirelesslycontrolleddevice...引出microchips这一名词,下面两段分别介绍了它的功能和对它的展望,所以文章主旨肯定与microchips有关,在B和D两项之间选择。纵观全文可知,应是对microchips的总体介绍,而不仅仅是怎么工作的,所以选B。C【解析】C。作者写这篇文章主要是想告诉我们什么呢?这种类型的题目,答案通常都在最后一段,因为前面几段作者会从正面、侧面去分析文章所讲述的中心话题,最后一段通常是总结,得出自己的观点。第一段引入话题:从大多数学生讨厌学习数学,但数学却遍布全球所有年级课程入手,引大家思考,为什么学校必须得设立数学课?第二段侧面论证:用一个学生的引子来询问,既然电脑可以做大多数的计算题,为什么还要学习数学?对第一段的质疑进一步论证。第三段列出关键点:用一个转折句However,thereismuchmoretomaththanjustlearningtoaddandsubtract(减)numbers.引入新一段,说明本段将解释数学为什么如此重要。第四段进一步通过例子论证正面观点:数学不是简单的加和减,其包含的思考能力是我们真正要学习的。最后一句的关键词theabilitytothinklogically正式解答此题的来源。通过逐段分析,我们对作者的意图也了然于心,正是C选项所描述的。SADFGRWQWWE!@#$%^&*@!#%FE精品学习资料可选择pdf第9页,共9页-----------------------
