主旨大意
考点聚焦
1、主要提问方式
2、主题句的情况
考点一 主要提问方式
知识梳理
考查主旨大意的题目大多数针对段落(或短文)的主题,主题思想,标题或目的,其主要提问方式有:
1、Which is the best title of the passage?
2、Which of the following is this passage about?
3、In this passage the writer tries to tell us that_____.
4、The passage tells us that .
5、This passage mainly talks about .
考点二 主题句的情况
知识梳理
1、主题句在段首或篇首。主题句在段首或篇首的情况相当普遍。一般新闻报道、说明文,议论文大都采用先总述,后分述的叙事方法。
2、主题句在段末或篇末。用归纳法写文章时,往往表述细节的句子在前,概述性的句子在后,并以此结尾。这种位于段末或篇末的主题句往往是对前面细节的总结、归纳或结论。
3、无主题句。有时,一篇文章里并没有明显的主题句。这时我们应该怎样来确定文章的主题或中心意思呢?其实这也不难。我们可以首先找出每一段的中心意思,各段的中心意思往往都是围绕一个中心来展开的,或者说是来说明一个问题的。这个中心就是这篇文章的主题或中心意思。
4、另外,一篇文章的主题句也会出现在其中的任何一段中。

(篇首) Everyone has got two personalities (性格)the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don‘t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control yourself, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
备考技法
最有效的办法是找出主题句。一篇文章(或一段文章)通常都是围绕一个中心意思展开的。而这个中心意思往往由一个句子来概括。这个能概括文章或段落中心意思的句子叫做主题句。因此,理解一个段落 或一篇文章的中心意思首 先要学会寻找主题句。
