　一、主旨大意题

　　这类问题主要测试考生把握主要内容与中心思想的能力。

　　常见问法：

　　What is the passage mainly about/ main idea?

　　What will be the best title?

　　What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?

　　主旨大意题的解题方法：

　　1. 文章主题句通常位于首段或者尾段，每一段的首句通常总领该段意思，可以速读后抓首

　　句来在脑中形成结构图。

　　2. 抓关键词。文章中反复提及的关键词应该出现在主旨句中，细枝末节的东西只能是干扰

　　项。

　　3. 标题的自明性。碰到给文章命名时，一定要记住这一规则，符合文意的题目一看你就知

　　道这篇文章讲了什么，绝对不会有驴唇不对马嘴之感。

　　【现场训练】

　　Passage 1

　　When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are

　　unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it

　　is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority .

　　This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students.

　　Music tells us who we are. Music expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.Music provides a kind of perception that cannot be acquired any other way.

　　When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as

　　music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses. Science and technology do not tell

　　us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important way we express human suffering

　　and celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love. So music education is far more necessary

　　than people seem to realize.

　　What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A. Music education deserves more attention.

　　B. Music should be of top education priority.

　　C. Music is an effective communication tool.

　　D. Music education makes students more imaginative.

　　【解析】文章第一段讲述许多学生家长认为音乐这门学科没有用处。第二章批判了这一想

　　法，第三章强调了音乐的重要性。两个划线句子清晰表明文章主旨，抓住他们，题目迎刃而解。

　　Passage 2

　　Nothing is as useful as a flashlight on a dark night if a tire goes flat. Few inventions are so

　　helpful to a child who is afraid of the dark. In fact, the modern flashlight brings light to many dark

　　situations. Finding something in the back of a closet is easy with a flashlight in hand. A camper also

　　needs one after the light of the campfire has been out.

　　What is the best title of the passage?

　　A. Everyone should have his own flashlight

　　B. The useful flashlight

　　C. What is modern flashlight D. Who need a flashlight?

　　【解析】答案为 B。本段讲述了 flashlight 的用处和带给人们的方便。A 项为过度引申，C、

　　D 项文中并未提及，无中生有。
