主要考查对文章进行概括或总结的能力,要求在阅读短文时,能够提炼文章的中心思想,体会作者的主要写作意图,充分运用逻辑概括能力,透过字里行间获取文章最具代表性的观点、论点及作者的情感倾向。
(一)出题形式:主旨大意题命题形式主要有三大类:一类是概括中心思想(main idea)型;一类是确定文章标题或主题(topic / title / headline)型;还有一类是询问文章的写作目的(purpose)。
1) What would be the best title for the text?
2) What is the topic of the text?
3) Which of the following best expresses the main idea?
4) The best title / headline for this passage might be ______.
5) The authors main purpose in writing the passage is ______.
6) Which of the following statements is best supported by the text?
7) Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
8) The main idea / The general idea / The main theme of this passage is ______.
9) The title that best expresses the main idea of the passage is ______.
(二)答案位置:大部分文章都有主题句(topic sentence),主题句表达了文章的中心思想(main idea),找到了主题句,也就抓住了文章的主旨大意。因此,主题句定位法是解答主旨大意题的一种行之有效的方法。主题句呈现形式通常有以下几种:
1)在开头出现;
2)在结尾出现;
3)在开头和结尾同时出现,首尾呼应;
4)有些文章的中心思想贯穿全文,并没有用一句话明确表达出来,这就要求学生学会归纳概括。
(三)实战演练
12 To swim the English Channel takes at least nine hours. Its hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the channel takes only twenty minutes as long as youre not held up at the airport, but its an expensive way to travel. You can travel by hovercraft if you dont mind the noise and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise, you can go by boat, if you remember sea-sickness pills. All these means of transport have their problems, and the weary traveler often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car. Not possible, you say. Well, wait a minute people are once again considering the idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge. This time , the great London Council is looking into the possibility of building a channel link straight to London. A bridge would cost far more a tunnel, but you would be able to go by rail or by car on a bridge, whereas a tunnel would provide a rail link only.
Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain realizing the need for links with Europe as a result of joining EEC? Well, perhaps. The main reason , though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of Londons discussed stimulate trade and revitalise the port, and would ,make London a main trading center in Europe. With a link over the channel, you could buy your fish and chips in England and be able to eat them in France while they are still warm!
The main idea of the passage is ______
A how to develop the trade of London
B crossing the Channel is difficult
C how to get to Europe more conveniently
D what to do in the development of traveling
