主旨大意解題技巧

每篇文章都有一個主旨大意。主旨大意題對考生的歸納、概括能力有一定的要求。文章主旨大意一般有四

種呈現形式：文首、文中、文尾、不明確給出(需要總結)。做這種題要掌握以下技巧：通讀文章，重點把

握首末段、首末句；作者反復強調的觀點或文章中多次出現的詞句通常是主旨；注意文中therefore,thus,but,

however,inshort,tosumup等表達轉折或總結的詞語。主旨大意題是對整篇文章或者文章中個別段落大意

的概括，屬于高難度、高區分度的題目。常見的提問方式是：Whatisthetextmainlyabout?或Whichofthe

followingcanbethebesttitleforthetext?

主旨大意題

方法：主旨大意分為大意類和標題類以及段落大意。①主題句是主旨大意的體現，因此識別每段主題句，

然后歸納。②看首段和尾端③看文中出現最多的詞

陷阱：①注意以偏概全不能選②范圍太大不能選③注意段落大意，看清段落不要誤選

方法1文章大意總結法
