主旨概括題是“七選五”閱讀題的??碱}型之一。它主要考查考生對(duì)文章或段落進(jìn)行概括的能力。它要求考生在閱讀文章時(shí),能夠提煉其中心思想,體會(huì)作者的寫(xiě)作意圖,充分運(yùn)用概括能力提取文章的主題、觀點(diǎn)以及作者的情感態(tài)度。這類題通常從兩個(gè)方面考查:①概括文章或段落的主題句或結(jié)論性語(yǔ)句;②總結(jié)段落標(biāo)題。下面,筆者將結(jié)合例題來(lái)談?wù)劇捌哌x五”閱讀題中主旨概括題的解題技巧,希望能幫助學(xué)生提升解題效率。
一、技巧點(diǎn)撥
該題型根據(jù)考查對(duì)象的不同,可以把主旨概括型題目分為兩類:標(biāo)題句和主題句。標(biāo)題句往往短小精悍,多為名詞性短語(yǔ)或祈使句,一般用以總結(jié)文章或者某個(gè)段落的主旨。學(xué)生需要通讀整個(gè)文本或者段落,理清文本邏輯和結(jié)構(gòu),才能歸納出標(biāo)題句。主題句往往用來(lái)概括某段落的中心思想,一般設(shè)在段首。一般情況下,短文首段給出中心句,其他各段落有一個(gè)段落中心句,它們一起構(gòu)成文本的框架結(jié)構(gòu)。學(xué)生需要認(rèn)真閱讀該段落,聯(lián)系選項(xiàng)中的特點(diǎn),查找關(guān)鍵詞的相關(guān)詞或者同義詞,從而推測(cè)出主題句,得出答案。主題句一般具有一定的概括性,不涉及具體的細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容,學(xué)生需要注意主題句概括的完整性,避免以偏概全或者與段落中心思想不符合。
二、典題例析
例1標(biāo)題句

例3主題句
(惠州市2023屆高三第一次調(diào)研考試試題).I studied for a degree in English Literature,and three years spent analyzing texts which I would other?wise not have chosen to read,greatly took the shine off reading.It took me a long time to find my way back to books.J.K.Rowling,I have to say,was a godsend in that respect.

解析:G。根據(jù)下文“It took me along time to find my way back to books.(我花了很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才重新回到閱讀的路上)”中的“along time”和“find my way”可知,G項(xiàng)“但我和書(shū)的關(guān)系并不總是那么容易”符合語(yǔ)境。故選G項(xiàng)。
綜上所述,在解答“七選五”閱讀題中的主旨概括題時(shí),考生應(yīng)當(dāng)注意這種題型的設(shè)題方向:是概括文章或段落的主題句或結(jié)論性語(yǔ)句,還是段落標(biāo)題,在掌握標(biāo)題句和段落主題句特點(diǎn)的基礎(chǔ)上,運(yùn)用上述的答題技巧,便能輕松解題。
