1)What’sthemainideaofthepassage/text?(2)What’sthepassage/textmainlyabout?(3)Whatdoestheauthormainlydiscussinthep
assage/text?2.“主题句定位”寻主旨概括文章主旨关键在于查找主题句。主题句是文章的核心,具有明确的概括性。主题句的位置一般有以下几种:(1)主题句出现在文首。开门见山,提出主题,用细节来解释或拓展主题句所表达
的主题思想,是最常见的演绎法写作方式。新闻报道、说明文或议论文通常采用这种写法。(2)主题句出现在文末。在表述细节后,归纳要点以概括主题,是最常见的归纳法写作方式。(3)主题句首尾呼应。为突出主题,作者先提出主题,结束时再次
点出主题。(4)主题句出现在中间。写作方式为:细节描述——归纳主题——进一步解释。3.找主题句的五个窍门(1)首段转折处常引出文章主题句;(2)主题句常包含文章主题词;(3)主题句常是定义型或总结型的句子;(4)首段出现疑问句时,对该问题的回答可能是
主题句;(5)首段出现具体例子或假设时,例子或假设后面的内容可能是主题句。题型2总结段落大意类[示例](2017·全国卷Ⅱ,C)TerrafugiaInc.saidMondaythatitsnewflyingcarhascompl

魂和门面。为吸引读者的注意,标题往往比较醒目。(2)一般文章的标题可根据主题句来判断,但在某些文章中,如记叙文,没有明确的主题句,需要根据文中的事实细节,查找文章的“主线”,归纳出文章的主题。3.文章标题三特点(1)一般为单
词、短语或句子形式,短语居多;(2)短小精悍,精确性强;(3)涵盖性强,能覆盖全文大意。[状元技法]大局为重——主旨大意题解题两注意1.主旨大意题难度较大,属于区分度很高的选拔性题目。注意无论此类题目出现在什么位置都要最后做,需要通读全文后才能更好地把握文章主题,且文章中其

yhardD.buriesherselfincomputergamesA解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第二句中的“whenIambiggerIwouldlikeajobwithGoogle”可知,她写信给谷歌CEO是希望长大后能在谷歌工作,故A项正确。2.Wecanknowfromthet

ascompletelyshockedthathisdaughterreceivedareply.”可知,Andy对于他的女儿能收到回信很惊讶,据此可推知,Andy根本没有指望会收到谷歌CEO的回信,故C项正确。

sroomslimitsteens’chancestolearn.C.Mathanxiety,hardlynoticed,isactuallyasilentcallforhelp.D.Poorsightedstudentscan’tseeclear
ly,whichisasilentcallforhelp.C解析:句意理解题。根据上下文及画线句前面的“Embarrassmentaboutnotknowingmathcanleadtofearintheclassroom.Fearcanleadto
silencebecausestudentsdonotwanttodrawattentiontotheirlackofknowledge.”可知,学生会因自己不懂某些数学知识感到尴尬,而这又会使他们产生恐惧心理,恐惧可能导致沉默,因为学生不想让人注意到自己
知识匮乏,相应地,老师也就会忽略学生这方面的不足,由此可知,C项最能传达该画线句的含义。5.WhichmayleadtoAmericanstudents’innumeracy?A.Themethodsofteaching.B.Thedifficulty

topooreducation”及第四段的内容尤其是“Mathreformisbeginningwiththeeducatorsthemselves.Teachersarenowbeingtrainedtorecognizeandtohelpstudents.
..gainingcompetenceinmathematics.”可知,教学方法可能是美国学生不能掌握数学基本概念的原因。6.Whatmaybediscussedinthefollowingparagraph?A.WhattobetaughtinAmerica’srevise

heCommittee中的arecrosswith与foundgreatdelight意思应该相反。再根据最后的sayingtheawardhasskippedoverfictionwritersforthesecondyear可判断,
arecrosswith应表示“对„„生气”,而不是D项中的“担心„„”。故选C项。7.WhatcanweknowaboutDylanaccordingtoMartinScorsese?A.DylaninfluencesMartinalot.B.Dylanishappywith
