考点32阅读理解主旨大意题高考频度:★★★★★高考阅读理解对文章的主旨大意进行命题,旨在考查考生通过对原文快速浏览正确获取语篇的大意,并对文章的主题、标题、段落、中心思想加以归纳理解以及辨别主要信息和次要信息的能力。要求考生在阅读短文时,能够提炼文章的中心情节,体会作者的主要意图,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、中心论点及作者的情感倾向。在高考阅读理解中,针对短文主旨常见的命题形式如下:(1)Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetex
t?/Whatisthetopicofthetext?(2)Themaintopic/subjectofthepassageis_________.(3)Themainidea/Thegeneralideais/Themainthemeofthi
spassageis…(4)Thelastparagraphendsthepassagewithanemphasison_________.(5)Whatismainlydiscussedinthetext?(6)Whatisthem

isbestsupportedbythetext?(10)Whichofthefollowingbestsummarizedthepassage?(11)Thepassagemainlyfocuseson.从上述命题形式可以看出,此类阅读测试题主要
可概括为两大类,即怎样理解段落及文章整体的中心思想和怎样拟定或选择恰当的标题。下面结合高考题实例来具体分析此类题目的解题技巧。怎样理解段落及文章整体的主旨大意——主题句定位法文章是由段落组成的。段落是发展一个主题的一群句子,段
落围绕着中心思想展开,而段落的中心思想又是为文章整体的中心思想服务的。寻找具体段落的中心思想的方法是:通过分析篇章结构,找出每小段的主题句,通过主题句找出文章的主题。找准文章的主题句是确定文章主旨大意的关键。主题是文章要表达的中心思想,文章的主题句通常都有一个话题,它是文章的核心。―主题句定位
法‖是一种行之有效的方法。但是由于文章的不同,表现的手法也各有不同,主题句出现的位置也不是一成不变的。在许多情况下,尤其在阅读说明文和议论文时,根据其篇章特点我们可以通过寻找短文的主题句来归纳出文章的主题。主题
句在文章中的位置通常有三种情况:开头、中间、结尾(含在开头结尾同时出现、首尾呼应的主题句)。因此,仔细阅读这类文章或段落的首尾句是关键。做主旨大意类试题多采用浏览法(skimming),浏览时,一般不需逐句细读,
只选读文章的首段、尾段,或每段的首句和尾句,重点搜索主题线索和主题信息。文章主题常常可以通过文章的写作方法来体现,有以下五种情况:1.中心主题句出现在文首开门见山,提出主题,随之用细节来解释、支撑或发展主题句所表达的主题思想。这是英语中最常见的演绎法写作方式
,即由一般到特殊,先提出观点,后举例论证,主题句则出现在段首的写作方法。新闻报道通常就采用这种写法。新闻报道的首句通常称为―新闻导语‖,―导语‖实际上就是主题句,是对全文内容的高度概括。大意题、标题一般可在第一句话找到答题依据。(2020·新课标III

1.D【解析】31.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段―Withtheyoungunabletoaffordtoleavehomeandtheoldatriskofisolation(孤独),morefamil
iesarechoosingtolivetogether.‖可知,由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险,越来越多的家庭选择住在一起。所以短文主要是关于英国生活方式的一种上升趋势。故选D项。2.主题句出
现在文尾在细节后,归纳要点、印象、结论、建议或结果,以概括主题。这是英语中最常见的归纳法写作方式,即细节表述的句子在前,概括性的句子居后,主题句则常位于末段。(2020·新课标I卷,D)Theconne

treetlampsonaremotehighway-alotofenergyislostduringtransmission.Glowingplantscouldreducethisdistanceandthereforehelpsaveenergy.可知照明约占美国总耗电量的7
%。由于照明通常远离电源,例如从发电厂到偏僻公路上路灯的距离,在传输过程中会损失大量能源。发光的植物可以缩短这段距离,从而帮助节约能源。结合文章主要说明了绿色植物对人们很有好处,因此麻省理工学院的工程师开发了一种发光植物,文章介绍了他们发明这种植物的过程,以及这
种植物的一些优势,指出在未来发光植物有可能取代路灯,达到节约能源的作用。由此可知,C选项“发光的植物能取代路灯吗?”最符合文章标题。故选C。Lacrosse(曲棍球)isapopularsportinCanada.TheIndiansinCanadainventedit.The

加拿大很受欢迎‖,显然选项D最符合短文的主题。4.中心主题隐含在全文之中,没有明确的主题句阅读这样的文章,就要求考生根据文章的细节来分析,概括出段落的主题,从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是,先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几个方面的内容,这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系
,然后加以归纳形成主题。该类型的试题则迎刃而解。(2020·新课标II卷,D)Ihaveaspecialplaceinmyheartforlibraries.IhaveforaslongasIcanremember.Iwasalwaysanenthusiasticreader,someti

rary【答案】35.D【解析】35.主旨大意题。纵观全文可知,文章讲述了作者是一名热情地读者,孩提时喜欢阅读,工作在图书馆。有了孩子以后,一家人去图书馆读书,阅读的习惯代代传承下去,作为小说家,作者呼吁其他作家支持
图书馆,宣传图书馆。因此推断全文围绕“作者对图书馆的爱”展开讲述。故D项“我对图书馆的爱”为最佳标题。故选D。4.主题句出现在文章的中间通常前面只提出问题,文中的主题由随之陈述的细节或合乎逻辑的引申在文中导出,而后又作进一步的解释、支撑或发展。TheSaha

主旨大意的形式出现,而且也可以用选择或拟定文章标题的形式出现。因此,选择文章标题,首先可以按照主旨大意的确定方式,先弄清文章的主旨大意,再定标题。标题位于文章之首,用来高度概括文章内容,点明文章主题。
它是段落中心思想最精练的表达形式。标题可帮助读者迅速推测出整篇文章的主要内容,抓住文章的中心,把握作者的观点和意图。那么如何选择文章的标题呢?首先,要考虑标题对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何。一般要求能覆盖全文内容,体现文章主旨。要避免下列三种情况:
①概括不够(多表现为部分代整体,从而导致范围太小);②过度概括(多表现为脱离本文章内容的发挥);③以事实、细节替代抽象具体的大意。其次,要考虑标题的针对性,即标题范围要恰当,针对性强。要在阅读原文的基础上,仔细考虑所选标题与文章主题是否有密切的关系。既不能太大,也不能太小,太大则中心就
不突出,太小也发挥不了应起的作用;精确度高,不能随意改变语言的表意程度及色彩。它可以是单词、短语,也可以是句子。再次要注意标题的醒目性,标题的选择要简洁、突出、新颖,标题是文章的点睛之笔,是文章的灵魂和门面。标题的好坏往往影响了文章的可读性,读者常常从标题上决定文
章的阅读取舍。故标题一般比较醒目,甚至比较离奇,以此来吸引读者对文章的兴趣。最后要注意,要恰当地选好标题,还需要了解标题的基本拟定方法。一般说来,拟定标题是以话题为核心,与控制性概念的词按一定的语法浓缩为概括主题句或中心思想的词组。比如某一文章的中心句为:CHINAissuedt
hefirstsetofstampsdepictingthetop128ChinesefamilynamesonThursdayNov.18th2004inBeijing.话题:Stamps控制性概念:CHINAissuedthefirstset

A【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Bacteriaareannoyingproblemforastronauts.ThemicroorganismsformourbodiesgrowuncontrollablyonsurfacesoftheInternationalSpaceSt
ation,soastronautsspendhourscleaningthemupeachweek.”可知,细菌对宇航员来说是个令人讨厌的问题。这种来自我们身体的微生物在国际空间站的表面不受控制地生长,宇航员每周要花几个小时来清理它们。也就是说它们很难去掉。其中的“themi
croorganisms”包括“bacteria”。由此可知,A项符合题意。33.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段的“HUNCHisdesignedtoconnecthighschoolclassroomswithNASAengineers.Gordon’sstudentsha
vebeenstudyingwaystokillbacteriainzerogravity,...”可知,Hunch旨在把高中教室和NASA的工程师联系起来。Gordon的学生一直在研究如何在零重力下
杀死细菌,...”。结合最后一段中的“GordonstudentsareemailingdailywithNASAengineersabouttheproblem,...”可知,学生每天都给NASA的工程师发邮件一起探讨(如何杀死空间站的细菌这一
空间技术)这个问题。由此可推断出HUNCHprogram的目的把空间技术与学校教育相结合。分析选项可知D项符合题意。34.A【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I’vegottoproducethisproductandthen,
attheendoftheyear,presentittoNASA,”“Engineerscomeandreallydoanin-personreview,and...It’snotaverynicethingattimes.It’sah
ardbusinessreviewofyourproduct.”可知,NASA的工程师要检查学生所做的产品。分析选项可知A项符合题意,故选A。35.B主旨大意题。文章以国际空间站里的微生物很难清除开头,引出宇航员们解决此问题的途径——借助美国国家航空航天局的HUNCH高中班,此计划
的目的是把航天技术与学校教育结合起来。在这项计划里,学生们通过homework(制作供美国国家航空航天局使用的产品)探索无疆的太空,因此“太空:最后的功课疆域”最适合做文章的标题。故选B。Passage4【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。语音操作与自动化技术的出现
使得机器人电话可以以假乱真。语音操作和自动化技术发展会使得机器人电话产生的问题更加严重。38.D【解析】观点态度题。根据第一段中的“Wearefinallywakinguptotheseverityoftheproblembysupportinganddevelopingag
roupoftools,appsandapproachesintendedtopreventscammersfromgettingthrough.Unfortunately,it’stoolittle,toolate.Byt
hetimethese“solutions”becomewidelyavailable,scammerswillhavemovedontoclevermeans”可知,最后,我们通过支持和开发一组旨在防止欺诈者通过的工具、应用程序和
方法,认识到了问题的严重性。不幸的是,我们的努力太少了,也太晚了。在这些“解决方案”被广泛使用的时候,骗子将转移到更巧妙的手段上。由此推知,作者认为这些“解决办法”对于解决问题起不了什么作用,因此作者感
到很“失望”。故D选项正确。39.A【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Thereasonthatrobocallsareaheadachehaslesstodowithamountthanprecision.Adecadeofdatabreacheso

ktoyouusingavoicethatsoundsexactlylikeyourbankteller’s,trickingyouinto“confirming”youraddress,mother’sname,andcardn
umber”可知,机器人通话之所以令人头痛,与其说与数量有关,不如说与精确度有关。长达十年的个人信息泄露已经导致了这样一种情况:骗子可以轻易地知道你母亲的名字,甚至更多。有了这些知识,他们就能够开展有针对性的运动来欺骗人们。根据这些可知,利用这种新的技术,欺诈者们
可以精确的确定他们行骗的目标。故A选项正确。40.B【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,这项语音技术可以产生一个听起来和人类非常相似的声音,它可以和接待员进行交谈,进行预订。由此可知,这项新技术有其好的方面。根据第三段的叙述可知,
欺诈者们可以利用这项新技术来进行欺诈行为。由此推知,这项新技术既可以发挥好的作用,也可能为坏人所利用,产生不好的作用,因此可以说它是一把双刃剑。故B选项正确。41.C【解析】主旨大意题。第一段提到:robocalls(机器人电话:自动拨号播放录音信息的推销电话)在未来变得会越来越严
重,不仅仅是出现在你的手机屏幕上的电话号码令人怀疑,而且你会质疑听到的声音是否是真的。第二段介绍原因:语音操作与自动化技术的出现使得机器人电话可以以假乱真。第三段介绍了语音操作和自动化技术发展会使得机器人电话产生的问题更加严重。最后两段提出我们该如何应对这些问题。综上,文章第一段点明文章中
心:机器人电话问题在未来会变得越来越严重。下文都是围绕这一话题展开的。故C选项适合作标题。题组三Passage1【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一档英国系列电视节目,给观众介绍如何减少食物浪费以及如何以较少的预算做出美味佳肴。24.B【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第一

较少。海马的萎缩最为明显,海马是大脑中记忆和认知的关键区域。他们的平均BDNF水平在旅途中也有所下降,即使在回家一个半月后也没有明显改善。由此可知,科学家通过比较扫描结果得出结论。故选A。3.推理判断题。根据第三段中Finally,comparedtot

解析】本文是说明文。介绍了父亲对孩子的语言的发展影响很大。1.细节理解题。根据第2段中的―They'vefound,totheirsurprise,thatnotonlyarefathersimportantforchildren'slanguagedevelop
ment,butthatfathersmattermorethanmothers.(令他们惊讶的是,他们发现不仅父亲对儿童语言发展的是重要的,而且父亲比母亲更重要)‖可确定答案是B。故选B。2.细节理解题。根据第3段Thatmakesmothersmorelikelytochoosewordst
hekidsknow.Fathersaren'tasfamiliarwiththeirkids,sotheyuseabroadervocabulary,andthekidslearnnewwordsandconceptsasaresult.可知,
这使得母亲们更倾向于选择孩子们知道的词语。父亲和孩子不太熟悉,所以他们会使用更广泛的词汇,而孩子也因此学会了新单词和概念。,父亲之所以在孩子的语言发展方面起着更重要的作用是因为他们―useabroade
rvocabulary‖,而母亲则―choosewordsthekidsknow‖。相对父亲,母亲使用的词汇限制在孩子认识的词汇范围内。故选C。3.词句猜测题。根据第4段中的―Becausefathersusuallyspendlesstime
withtheirkids‖因为父亲陪伴孩子的时间通常较少、―Thatmakesthemmoreinterestingplaymates‖这使它们成为更有趣的玩伴、―ourchildrenseeitasveryspec
ial‖我们的孩子认为它很特别。可推断,因为父亲通常花更少的时间和他们的孩子在一起,他们更具新颖性,故划线词与D项意思相近。故选D。4.主旨大意题。由第一段的Fathershaveastronginfluenceontheirchildren.Andoneoftheare
asinwhichresearcherslookfortheinfluenceisinthedevelopmentoflanguage.(父亲对他们的孩子有很强的影响。研究人员寻找影响的领域之一是语言的发展。)以及全
文内容可知,本文主要是关于父亲对儿童语言的贡献大于母亲。故选D。
