1、2023届高考英语二轮复习:英语阅读主旨大意题答题技巧答题技巧一 文章大意题定位主旨知文意文章大意题主要是测试考生对一篇文章的深层理解程度以及在速读中准确定位文章主旨大意的能力。它要求考生在理解全文的基础上能较好地运用概括、判断、归纳、推理等逻辑思维的方法,对文章进行高度概括或总结。 解答文章大意题,找准文章的主题句是关键。下面介绍两种快速找出主题句的方法。(1)根据文体和写作手法来定位主题句(2)根据行文标志来定位主题句转折词句中如有but,however,in fact,actually等时,其后的内容往往是作者真正想要表达的观点。总结词如therefore,thus,in short,c
2、onclude 等,其后的内容往往是文章的主题。疑问句若首段出现疑问句时,对该问题的回答可能是文章的主题。 全文中无明显主题句时,我们可以利用文章中的高频词。任何一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的,因此,有的文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词,即高频词,也叫做主题词。抓住了它,便容易抓住文章的中心。 在两个选项看上去都十分正确无法选择时,试着从选项出发,想象一下如果自己以此选项来写文章会有哪些内容,然后把它与文章的内容比较,接近的即为正确选项。【典例1】(2020全国卷阅读B)Some parents will buy any hightech toy if they think it

9、的主要意思,是对一个段落的基本内容的简缩和概括。概括、总结、归纳段落大意就是用准确的、简练的语言把一个段落的主要意思明确而完整地表达出来。做题时要特别注意“首尾兼顾”,即所问段落的首句和尾句。一是因为它们往往体现主旨要义,二是因为利用这些信息可以迅速提炼段落结构框架,在框架下的主旨判断,其准确性更高。【典例2】(2021新高考卷阅读D)Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater in
10、terest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion.It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives.Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right dire

12、ce is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion.”为主旨句。第二步对比选项,确定答案:由文章主旨句可知,虽然情商的持续流行吸引力是可取的,但我们希望这种关注能引起人们对情感的科学和学术研究的更大的兴趣。又根据下文的It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角)
13、from which to study how people manage their lives.可知,我们希望在未来的数十年后,科学的进步提供新的视角来研究人们如何管理他们的生活。由此可知,这些是对未来研究的期望。故选B。答题技巧三 标题归纳题文章主题定标题该类题目要求考生在理解文章的基础上,结合文章的体裁和结构,从所给选项中选出适合文章的标题。注意最佳标题的特点:精准性强(不改变原文的意义和感情色彩);覆盖性强(能概括全文并体现文章的主旨);有吸引力(能吸引读者眼球)。要首先找出文章的主题句,然后根据文章主题句确定文章标题,如果没有主题句再寻找全文重复性强的关键词或者概括全文。 利用4大
