新課標(biāo)高考閱讀理解主旨大意題解題技巧

1、.新課標(biāo)高考閱讀理解主旨大意題解題技巧在高考閱讀理解中，主旨大意題的考查占有十分重要的位置。掌握所讀材料的主旨和大意也是英語課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和考試說明對考生的基本要求之一。只有通過閱讀掌握了文章的主題，才能正確理解文章，進而根據(jù)文章的事實細(xì)節(jié)推測作者的態(tài)度和觀點。主旨大意題主要是測試考生對一篇文章或一段文字的深層理解程度以及在速讀中準(zhǔn)確把握文章主旨大意的能力。一般針對某一語段或某一語篇的主題標(biāo)題或目的設(shè)題。這類題目考查的范圍是：基本論點、文章標(biāo)題、主題或段落大意等。它要求考生在理解全文的基礎(chǔ)上能較好地運用概括、判斷、歸納、推理等邏輯思維方法，對文章進行高度概括或總結(jié)，屬于高層次題。一、題型特點與命題方

4、的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。要準(zhǔn)確地抓住文章的主題思想，就要十分留意文章的開頭和結(jié)尾，要抓住文中具有概括性的信息，從上下文連貫的意思來理解全文，看作者主要談的是什么，透過文字?jǐn)⑹龅倪^程來歸納主題，再從選擇項中找出最符合表達(dá)主題思想的選項。有些干擾項，從局部看也許不算錯，但從全局看卻又片面。這類干擾項與正確答案之差，其實是局部與全局之差。考生在做題時不要為局部現(xiàn)象迷惑，而忽略了文章的整體思想。二、解題思路與應(yīng)試技巧 做這類題時常用略讀法?？焖匍喿x文章找出各個段落的主題句。把各個段落的主題句聯(lián)系起來著眼于全文結(jié)構(gòu)安排，了解文章的重心，就能概括出文章的中心。文章的標(biāo)題是中心思想最精煉的表達(dá)形式，選擇的標(biāo)題意義范圍要能涵

5、蓋全文，不能太大也不能太小。命題者在出這類題時，常常利用生活常識編造干擾項，把文中的細(xì)節(jié)當(dāng)主旨，利用局部信息編造干擾項，編制超出文章范圍的標(biāo)題或不能涵蓋文章中心意義的標(biāo)題來考查考生的理解程度，考生要特別留意。下面結(jié)合高考試題，談?wù)剺?biāo)題類和大意類主旨大意題的解題技巧。1、標(biāo)題類標(biāo)題是段落中心思想最精煉的表達(dá)形式。在閱讀中不僅要求考生能夠通過自己已知的信息概括出段落的中心思想，而且還要對概括出的中心思想加以提煉，擬定出段落的標(biāo)題。在測試中能夠迅速而準(zhǔn)確地選擇標(biāo)題。 文章標(biāo)題可以是單詞，短語，也可以是句子。標(biāo)題可幫助讀者迅速推測出整篇文章的主要內(nèi)容，抓住文章討論的中心，把握作者的觀點和意圖。它的特點

10、括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段開頭再看全文找主題句，若無明顯主題句，就通過關(guān)鍵詞句來概括(如議論文中尋找表達(dá)作者觀點態(tài)度的詞句，記敘文尋找概括情節(jié)和中心的動詞或反映人物特點的形容詞。) 。文中出現(xiàn)兩種或兩種以上的不同觀點時，務(wù)必牢記作者的觀點才是體現(xiàn)全文中心的。此時，要注意一些轉(zhuǎn)折詞，如but, yet, however, although, in spite of, by contrast, on the contrary等。當(dāng)文章中表示相反的觀點時，往往用到這些詞。答題時要弄清哪個是作者的觀點，排除迷惑性信息，準(zhǔn)確歸納主旨大意?！究祭?2009北京卷，D篇) 71.

26、xed. But when they improved the anxious rats living conditions giving them new toys to explore and a bigger cage to live in levels of this brain chemical increased and they became less anxious.“The levels of this brain chemical increased in response to the experiences that the rats were exposed to.

27、It also decreased their anxiety”. Javier Perez of the University of Michigan said in a telephone interview. “It made them behave the same way as the rats that were relaxed”, he said.In a former study of people who were severely depressed before they died, the team found the gene that makes FGF2 was

28、producing very low levels of the growth factor, which is known primarily for organizing the brain during development and repairing it after injury.Perez thinks the brain chemical may be a marker for genetic vulnerability (脆弱性) to anxiety and depression. But it can also respond to changes in the envi
