主旨大意題的解題技巧.docx

1、.主旨大意題的解題技巧主旨大意題主要考查考生對文章主旨大意的概括和歸納能力。主要有主題型和標(biāo)題型兩類，題干中一般有main idea, topic, title, mainly about等字眼。1、快速解題法此類題的閱讀文章多屬于議論文和說明文，其結(jié)構(gòu)特點(diǎn)常表現(xiàn)為：提出問題論述問題得出結(jié)論或闡明觀點(diǎn)?？忌鷮@一結(jié)構(gòu)的掌握，有助于迅速掌握文章的主題，把握文章的脈絡(luò)，從而快捷而準(zhǔn)確地抓住文章或段落的中心思想。解答此類題目的關(guān)鍵在于迅速抓住閱讀文章的主題句?？忌灰覝?zhǔn)了主題句，對于閱讀理解中的主旨大意題就迎刃而解了。主題句的顯著特點(diǎn)：主題句所表達(dá)的意思具有明顯的概括性；句子結(jié)構(gòu)簡單精練；文章或段

2、落中的其他句子都是對主題句的進(jìn)一步解釋、說明、論證或擴(kuò)展。主題句的五種位置： 文首； 文尾； 首尾呼應(yīng)； 文中； 沒有主題句。主題句的確定方法：用瀏覽法（ skimming ），即只需選讀文首、文尾，或每段的首句和尾句等，重點(diǎn)搜索主題線索和主題信息。2、辨認(rèn)主旨小竅門 段落中出現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)折時，該句很可能是主題句。 作者有意識地反復(fù)重復(fù)的觀點(diǎn)通常是主旨。 首段出現(xiàn)疑問句時，對該問題的解答可能就是文章主旨。 提出文章主旨時常伴有的文字提示：therefore, thus, but, however, in short等。3、答題基本步驟 閱讀文章開頭幾句和最后幾句，以便獲得有關(guān)主題和中心思想的信息。 瀏

3、覽文章的其余部分，尋找能支撐和論證主題、中心思想的關(guān)鍵詞。 仔細(xì)推敲各個選項(xiàng)，排除有明顯錯誤或無關(guān)信息的選項(xiàng)，從而選出最佳答案。4、推敲正誤小竅門 正確選項(xiàng)常含有抽象名詞或概括性詞語。 正確選項(xiàng)一般不出現(xiàn)細(xì)節(jié)信息，不含過分肯定或絕對意義的詞。 那些概括全文、容全面、含義深刻、說明道理的選項(xiàng)一般是正確答案。 四個選項(xiàng)中，容相近或完全相反的兩個選項(xiàng)中往往有一個是正確答案。 干擾項(xiàng)特點(diǎn)：細(xì)節(jié)信息明顯，容片面，以偏概全，只含局部信息，或是一句沒有展開論述的話，概括圍太寬或太窄，或是此選項(xiàng)沒有具體的容。詞義猜測題的解題技巧這類題包括詞義猜測和句意猜測兩類；詞義又包括單詞和短語意義。近幾年的高考閱讀理解題

4、中一般有 2 至 3 個小題是直接考查詞句意義猜測的。對詞義考查主要有對生詞詞義的推測和對熟詞生義的推測或是在特定場合下對詞或句子的理解。這里著重談一談如何猜測詞的意思。1、根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系.根據(jù)上下句之間表示轉(zhuǎn)折或?qū)Ρ汝P(guān)系的連接詞，如but,however,otherwise,though等就可以看到前后句在意義上的差別，從而依據(jù)某一句的含義，來確定另一詞的含義。另外，分號也可以表示轉(zhuǎn)折，對比或不相干的意義。如：例 1： Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius to sell it.（卷）例 2：A child s birthdaypartyd

5、oesnthave to be a hassle;itcan be a basketof fun,accordingto Beth Anaclerio,an Evaston mother of two,ages 4 and 18 months.(全國卷)·What does the underlined word“hassle ” probably mean?A. A party designed by specialistsB. A plan requiring careful thoughtC. A situation causing difficulty or troubleD

6、.

7、4、根據(jù)因果關(guān)系表示因果關(guān)系的詞有： because, so that, so / suchthat等。如：例 5： The flowers in the vase withered because they had no water.5、根據(jù)同位關(guān)系閱讀中出現(xiàn)的難詞有時后面會緊跟一個同位語對其進(jìn)行解釋或進(jìn)一步補(bǔ)充說明，這時可利用同位關(guān)系對前面或后面的詞義或句意進(jìn)行猜測。如：例 6： Yes, that is the Tai Mahal, one of the most famous buildings in the world. （全國卷）6、根據(jù)并列關(guān)系當(dāng)詞或短語之間有關(guān)列連詞 and 或

8、 or （或者、否則）時，其連接的兩項(xiàng)容在含義上是接近的或遞進(jìn)的，由此確定同等關(guān)系中的某個生詞所屬的義域，推辭其大致意思。如：例 7：In the ancientcityof Rome, we visitedevery mansion, battlesite,theatreand other public halls.例 8：And ifyouve gatheredyour friendsaround you to rebuilda happy familyatmosphere( 氣氛 ),you may frearthatsayingno willbringback the kindof c

11、uages.10、根據(jù)同義關(guān)系根據(jù)生詞所處語境中的同義詞或近義詞的意思來推測它的意思。如：例 12： Doctorsbelievethatsmoking cigarettesisdetrimentalto yourhealth.They also regard drinking as harmful.11、根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)換說法插入語 that is, that is so say, in other words以及 namely, i. e. , or等都可以用來對前面的容進(jìn)行解釋，意為“也就是說”“即”。如：例 13： The cinema is only open to adults, i. e.

12、 people over 18.12、根據(jù)標(biāo)點(diǎn)符號冒號、破折號、括號等都可表示對前文的解釋或說明。如：例 14： Withoutexaminations,employerswill look foremployeesfrom the highlyrespectedschoolsand from families known to them a formof favoritismwillreplaceequality.（卷）·The word “favoritism ” is used to describe the phenomenon that.A. bright children

13、 also need certificates to get satisfying jobsB. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobsC. poor children with certificates are favoured in job marketsD. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success13、根據(jù)定語從句由生詞后起修飾限制或起補(bǔ)充說明作用的定語從句推測其意思。如：例 15：Jack is now a florist,who

14、keeps a shop for sellingflowers in our district.14、根據(jù)邏輯推理根據(jù)生詞前后的搭配關(guān)系和上下文的意思等來推測其意思。如：例 16： Although the fisherman was wearingwouwester , the storm was soheavythat he was wet through.15、根據(jù)單詞發(fā)音有的英語詞匯是通過音譯進(jìn)入漢語詞匯中的我們可以根據(jù)其讀音來理解其意思。如：aspirin(阿司匹林 ), nylon(尼龍 ), Olympic(奧林匹克 ), sofa(沙龍 ), typhoon(臺風(fēng) ) 等。.1

15、6、根據(jù)生活常識有時根據(jù)生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)和基本常識可以推測出生詞的意思。如：例 17： The snake slithered through the grass.17、根據(jù)構(gòu)詞方法根據(jù)前綴、后綴、合成、轉(zhuǎn)換等構(gòu)詞法來推測生詞的意思。如：例 18： Afterjusta few days on the job,I began noticingthatthe otherfellowswere overcharging passengers.

16、 same age. For these children to develop their full adult potential, theireducation must be adapted(適應(yīng) ) to those differences.· What does the underlined word“exceptional ” mean in the passage?A. foolishB. unusualC. extremely giftedD.clever18、根據(jù)文章語境猜測任何詞義都離不開上下文的語境，所以可借助文章語境對需要猜測的詞或短語進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推測。如

17、：例 20： Being considered a leader in our society is indeed of high praise.Leadershipmeans power,commands,respectand,mostimportant,encouragesachievement.UnlikevitaminC, leadershipskillscantbe easilyswalloweddown.They must be carefully cultivated.Differentfrom popularbelief,most good leadersare made, n

19、詞 one, it, that, he, him 或 them 等可以指上文提到的人或事物。有時代詞與指代的對象相隔較遠(yuǎn)，要認(rèn)真查找，有時需要對前面提到的容進(jìn)行總結(jié)，才能得出代詞所指代的事。如：例 21：The Presidenthas startedusing lookalikesduringsome publicappearances.Dave is offered a chance to“serve his country” by becoming one.·The underlined word“one” in the third paragraph refers to.A.

20、 the PresidentB. the directorC. an actorD. alook-alike詞義推測的兩個原則：不管這個詞多超綱，根據(jù)上下文都能得出其意思；不管這個詞多熟悉，都要通過上下文得出其在特定場合下的意思。.推理判斷題的解題技巧閱讀理解中的推斷題主要考查學(xué)生透過文字表層信息， 根據(jù)上下文邏輯關(guān)系進(jìn)行推理、分析，挖掘文章的真正涵，推斷出材料中沒有直接交代，而需要加以闡述的概念與結(jié)論。推斷隱含意義、推斷下文容、猜測作者態(tài)度等，屬較高層次的閱讀。近幾年來，這類題所占比例不斷加大，考生對此感到棘手，現(xiàn)按不同類型來談?wù)劯髯缘拇痤}誤區(qū)及技巧點(diǎn)撥。1、如何推斷隱含意義 提問方式 題干
