高三备考冲刺，必抓的八篇文章
河北省易县育英高级中学（074200）庞永升
高三备考在完成英语基础知识的复习总结之后，便进入了冲刺阶段。冲刺阶段是英语知识及技能的灵活运用及输出阶段，是复习的最高境界。其主要分为阅读和写作；阅读要求熟练运用语言知识获取、归纳、总结信息；写作则是语言知识的输出，是知识内化后的输出；是对词汇、语法、句式的恰到好处的表达。高考试卷中有八篇与阅读相关的文章，即完形填空1篇、阅读理解5篇、短文改错1篇、写作1篇共115分（全国II卷）。因此，我们说高考英语得阅读者得天下。
下面就完形填空、阅读理解、短文改错及写作的备考进行分述：
完形填空
【题型特点及考纲要求】
1. 考查目的
完形填空是对考生英语语言综合运用能力的考查，既考查考生对语篇的理解能力，包括篇章阅读理解、获取和分析信息的能力，又在语篇层面上考查学生在一定的语境中准确、恰当、得体运用词汇的能力。2. 题型特点
（1）体裁和题材：高考完形填空大多选择夹叙夹议的议论文或有一定故事情节和相对完整的故事片断的记叙文。题材大都富有教育意义，能给考生以启迪，类似人生感悟的心灵鸡汤的小短文，语言地道，文笔优美。
（2）考点设置：完形填空设题完全不同于单项填空，以篇章语义为主，所设4个选项从语法角度考虑都正确。错误项只能通过语义、语境、常识、逻辑和搭配来排除。因而，高考完形填空设点以实词为主，其中最多是动词（包括非谓语动词、短语动词、情态动词）和名词，其次是形容词和副词，再次是连词和介词。
【完形填空应试技巧指南】
首先，仔细审题，明确大意。首先要以很快的速度浏览全文，掌握文章的主旨，不要急于看选项。浏览全文时要重点了解文中所叙述的人物、时间、地点、事件，即who，when，where，what。完形填空命题的原则一般是第一句话不挖空，目的是使读者进入语境，因此一定要认真阅读这句话。例如：Why is a space left between the rails of a railway line where one piece joins the next?这句话从铁轨之间的缝隙引出了问题。根据常识，文中内容应与热胀冷缩的物理现象有关。
第二，注意一些搭配和用法。现在的搭配有四个选项，这四个选项现在安排都非常的精巧，跟上下文都非常的搭配，所以要仔细考虑，考虑它的语境和语意。现在的词语辨意也是跟以前不一样，四个都可以插进去。但意思差别非常的微妙，所以需要了解词语辨意。
第三，“瞻前顾后，顾后瞻前”。要根据上下文的逻辑关系确定选项，切忌脚踩西瓜皮滑到哪就是哪。
第四，考生要根据生活常识和相关知识确定选项。
第五，全文复读，融会贯通。在试填好答案之后，我们有必要从头至尾再把对话读一遍，按照对话情境，中心内容，推理判断。凡有把握的，不再改动，如有不顺或举棋不定之处，要重新定夺，确保万无一失。
进行核查同时注意以下三点：
1. 上下文的一致性：即时态语态的一致；代词、名词、单复数的一致。
2. 从语法和惯用法及习惯搭配、甚至语感入手，看是否符合上下文的逻辑。
3. 段与段、句与句之间的衔接是否连贯。
这次复核至关重要，常能纠正一两处甚至多处错误。同时对极难确定的答案，也要凭语感任猜一个，决不可不选。
【具体操作中应注意的问题】
1. 看清上下文，找准定位词
充分利用文章的上下文和前后句，找到对选择有提示作用的词或句。这些词有时可能是同义词或反义词。例如：
1) Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in some places it is very very＿＿＿＿＿.
A. deep
B. high
C. cold
D. dangerous
根据转折连词but的提示，所填入的词应与shallow相反，因此答案为A。
2) Mrs O‘Neill asked＿＿＿＿＿questions and she didn‘t scold us either.
A. no
B. certain
C. many
D. more
and是一个并列连词；either为副词，用在否定句或否定词后加强语势，由此可以确定所填的词也应是一个否定意义的词，因此答案是A。
2. 理顺逻辑，寻求搭配
注意固定的搭配，包括动词与介词的搭配、动词与名词的搭配以及形容词与名词的搭配等，同时要根据内容选择正确的短语。例如：
Here‘s a fellow who just walked into a bank and helped himself＿＿＿＿＿so much money.
A. for
B. by
C. to
D. of
表示―自取，随便拿‖这个意义的短语是help oneself to…故答案为C。
3. 扎实基础，搞清辨异
Soon I heard a＿＿＿＿＿like that of a door burst in and then a climb of feet.
A. sound
B. cry
C. voice
D. shout
选项中的四个词都表示不同的声音，但B，C，D项的三个词都是指从嗓子里发出的声音，而sound 则表示各种各样的声音。因此答案是A。
4. 看清执行者，确定所选词
And video cameras can be used to＿＿＿＿＿people‘s actions at home.
A. keep
B. make
C. record
D. watch
句中动作的发出者是video cameras因此答案是C，意思是―记录‖。
5. 寻求上下逻辑，从容确定关系
It has been many years since I was last in London＿＿＿＿＿I still remember something that happened during that visit.
A. and
B. for
C. but
D. as
根据句前的many years和句后的still remember答案应选表示转折的连词but.
6. 了解生活常识，确定相关知识
(Immediately)the officers jumped into their cars and rushed to the＿＿＿＿＿hospital.
A. animal
B. biggest
C. plant
D. nearest
在这样的紧急情况下，人们的第一个反应是到最近的医院就医，因此答案为D
【2010考例分析】
【2010·辽宁】
When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was __36___to see that it was an English English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary._37___it was a dictionary intended for non—native learners, none of my classmates had one __38__, to be honest, I found it extremely __39_ to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and _40__ not fully understand the meaning. I was used to the __41__ bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are _42__ both in English and Chinese. I really wondered why my aunt __43_ to make things so
difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I _44__ that monolingual dictionaries are __45_ in learning a foreign language
As I found out, there is __46_ often no perfect equivalence(对应)between two _47___ in two language. My aunt even goes so far as to 48___ that a Chinese ―equivalent‖ can never give you the __49___ meaning of a word in English! ___50_ , she insisted that I read the definition(定义) of a world in a monolingual dictionary __51___ I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. ____52__, I have come to see what she meant.
Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses a(n) 53 number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am 54 exposed to（接触）the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas. 55 this, I can express myself more easily in English.
36.A．worried B．sad C．surprised D．nervous
这是一篇记叙文，作者主要描写自己从最初接触英英词典的惊异，到习惯使用英英词典以及使用英语词典的好处。
36.C 。通读全文可知，作者是一个中国大学生，中国人学英语，尤其是初学者习惯使用英汉词典。当作者看到英英词典的时候，他感到“吃惊”。
37.A．Because B．Although C．Unless D．If
37.B。前后两句在意义上是让步关系，所以用although引导让步状语从句。而A项because引导原因状语从句；Unless和if‘引导条件状语从句。
38.A．but B．so C．or D．and
38.A。此空格处是一个并列连词，连接前后两句。而前后两句之间存在的是转折关系，所以用but。
39.A．difficult B．interesting C．ambiguous D．practical
39. A。最初用英英词典，不习惯，所以作者感觉用起来“很难difficult”。interesting是“有趣味的意思”，根据下文not fully understand the meaning不可能是这个答案；ambiguous是“不明确的”；practical是“实用的”，这两个词也不符合语境。
40.A．thus B．even C．still D．again
40.C。句子中有否定词not，有副词fully，所以用still，表示“仍然不能够完全”的意思。
41.A．new B．familiar C．earlier D．ordinary
41.B。be used to 表示“习惯……，对作者来说习惯了双语词典，或者说是英汉词典。这里指双语词典的使用对他来说是熟悉。
42.A．explained B．expressed C．described D．created
42.A。此句是一个in which引导的定语从句，其中words是主语，根据常识在词典中单词的意思是被“解释出来”的，所以用explained。
43.A．offered B．agreed C．decided D．happened
43.C。我真想知道我姑妈为什么决定这么为难我。其他三个词虽然都跟动词不定式，但是在这里意思都不恰当。
44.A．imagine B．recommend C．predict D．understand
44.D。过去不理解，经过一段时间后，“明白了understand”；imagine是“想象”的意思；recommend
是“推荐”的意思；predict是“预测”的意思。
45.A．natural B．better C．easier D．convenient
45.B。此句中monolingual dictionaries和bilingual dictionaries比较，A和D项没用比较级，better强调更好，更实用，而easier则不可能。
46 A．at best B．in fact C．at times D．in case
46.B。常见的情况是实际上两种语言之间的两个词没有完全的对应。in fact表示“实际上，事实上”。at best 是“至多；充其量”；at times是“有时”；in case是“万一，以防”，显然A、C、D项不合语境。
47.A．words B．names C．ideas D．characters
47.A。词典上重点的内容应该是单词。
48.A．hope B．declare C．doubt D．tell
48.B。我姑妈甚至还声称汉语意思决不能给出一个英语单词的确切意思。
49.A．exact B．basic C．translated D．expected
49.A。前面的a Chinese equivalent和the meaning of a word in English对应，所表明还是对应不准确的问题，所以用exact。
50.A．Rather B．However C．Therefore D．Instead
50. C。此空后面的句子和前面表示的是一种“因果”关系，所以用therefore。
51.A．when B．before C．until D．while
51. A。表示“当……时候”，用when引导时间状语从句。而before通常指“在……之前”；until指“直到……时候”；while指“在……的同时”。
52.A．Largely B．Generally C．Gradually D．Probably
52. C。该句的谓语have come to see是表示“变化过程”，所以用gradually表示“渐渐地”。
53.A．extra B．average C．total D．limited
53. D。从后面的around 2,000可知词典中用于解释词义的词是限制在2，000左右。
54.A．repeatedly B．nearly C．immediately D．anxiously
54. A。在有限的范围内，查阅阅读释义的话，就会反复接触基本词汇、学会这些词汇怎样用来解释事物和观点，所以用repeatedly表示“反复地，经常地”，
55.A．According to B．In relation to C．In addition to D．Because of
55. D。后面主句部分I can express myself more easily in English.表达的是结果，此处表达的应该是原因，说明使用这种词典所带来的好处。

It was at a concert that I happened to find David. He was holding his head at a strange 36 as if he were staring down at something. Then the truth struck me. He was blind. The last thing he remembers 37 was his daughter being born. Then the world went 38 .
Bad luck is no stranger to this 44-year-old man. His mother died of cancer, and his weak father had to 39 11-year-old David to the care of the state.
Things seemed always to go from bad to 40 . Two years ago, his beloved guide dog pulled him out of the 41 of a truck. David was not hurt. The dog 42 .
But David does not feel sorry for himself. ―These are just little obstacles(障碍)you have to 43 in your life,‖ he said.
He has to make a daily two-hour trip to his working place—the X-ray department of an 44 room.
It was a hard job to 45 . Before he got it, David was determined to escape the workshop run by the Lighthouse, an organization 46 to help blind people.

阅读理解
【高考阅读理解试题的特点及考纲要求】
一、选材贴近生活，贴近时代。渗透文化意识，强调实际应用；注重体裁、题材多样化、交际化和生
活化。
二、生词率略有下降，但难句增多。命题者着重考查学生利用同义或反义关系、构词法、语法和语篇
等理解生词的能力。
三、信息量加大，对阅读速度的要求提高。在增加语段信息量的同时，设项的表达信息量也有增加。
四、语篇意识加强，设题手法灵活，提问深入。这不仅要求学生理解文章的字面意思，还要求理解文
章的内在含义，如段落或文章的主旨、作者的意图等。
五、命题上既注重细节的理解，也重视整体的理解；既重视从语言学角度考查学生的语言知识和语言
技能，又重视从心理学的角度考查学生的学习策略。
【解题策略】
解答阅读理解题的总体策略应定位于：单句入手，语篇突破，着眼整体，归纳推断。具体的做法是：第一，准确理解关键句子、关键词语的意义。善于解读难句、猜测生词的词义和语义，注意跨文化语
言障碍，避免因粗心大意或理解不准确造成曲解或误解。
第二，抓住语句表达的实质。即不仅能看懂词、句的表面意思，而且能够扑捉到文字背后的引申意义以及作者的态度和倾向，即潜在的深层含义。
第三，要耐心细致地读完全部选项，应按照―误否？虚否？偏否？‖的三级思考程序来分析鉴别每一个选项，即先看与文中内容是否相矛盾，再看在文中有没有信息支撑点，最后看能不能完全符合题目的要求，找出差异，然后根据问题的特点和题型确定选项。不要急于求成，使选出的答案似是而非。
第四，要仔细审题。学生由于把主要精力都放在选择正确答案上，因此一旦找到了叙述与短文事实相符的选项，就盲目地选它为答案，忽视了题目到底问什么，从而使所选答案答非所问。
第五，要以语篇事实为依据，理解通篇的逻辑关系，把握住语篇的结构与文脉，在事实的基础上进行合乎逻辑的推理，避免盲目的或无根据的主观臆断。
第六，快速阅读，整体理解。
阅读速度阅读理解的重要方面，速度不能过慢，最低要求是30~50 WPM 。平时要养成良好的阅读习惯，克服逐字停顿、回读等坏习惯。阅读时要有紧迫感，集中注意力，力求一个意群一停顿，甚至一行一停顿。千万不要一遇到生词就查字典，平时要学会根据上下文、构词法、生活常识、定语从句、同位语从句、破折号、等猜测词义；平时必须进行快速阅读训练或限时训练。还要有强烈的语篇意识，着重整体理解，要在十分有限的时间内抓住短文要点、搜寻关键词、确定主题句，还要记忆有关细节、理清短文脉络‖。【推断作者的意图、态度、目的题】
（1）【题型特点】
阅读理解中有很多题目要求推测作者的态度和意图，对此，很多考生往往感到无从下手，不能正确把握作者的感情色彩。
在“attitude”型试题提供的选项中，正确选项应该能够高度概括文章的主旨，进而体现作者的态度和观点；干扰项可能是文中的某一细节，只能算是文章中的“一个点”，也可能是某种观点或结论，但“文不对题”。
把题干和选项联系起来，很容易看出，试题要求考生推断作者的态度和观点。通过文章作者到底想表达什么样的态度和观点，这当然需要文章的诸多信息来体现和支撑。
总的来看，作者通过文章可以表达的意图很多，可能是体现作者的某种态度，比如支持、反对、批评、赞扬；也可能是作者的某种目的，比如建议、劝阻、推销、指导等。这就需要考生通过文章的意思进行细致的辨别和分析，从而弄清作者的态度和目的，这些都能够从作者的论述方法、措辞、语气等方面推断出来。
（2）【实战解题指南】
作者的语气态度往往不会直接写在文章里，只能通过细读文章，从作者的选词及其修饰手段中体会出来。
【A】这类询问语气态度的考题中，选择项里常出现以下一些重要的词：
sympathetic 同情的；critical批评的；doubtful怀疑的；objective客观的；enthusiastic热情的，matter-of-fact实事求是的；hostile敌对的；satisfied满意的；friendly友好的；indifferent冷淡的；subjective 主观的；optimistic乐观的；pessimistic悲观的；disappointed失望的。
【B】询问写作目的的题，选择项里常出现的词是：
explain解释；persuade劝说；comment评论；criticize批评；interest引起……的注意或兴趣；entertain
使欢乐；argue辩论；demonstrate举例说明，示范；tell讲述；prove 证明；urge激动；advise劝告；analyze分析；praise赞扬; view 看待,等等。
【C】这种题型常见的提问形式有：
The author seems _____.
The author‘s tone in this passage is _____.
The purpose of the author in writing this passage is _____.
The author‘s intention in writing the passage is to _____.
The writer probably feels that _____.
In the author‘s opinion, _____.

【2011·安徽江南十校联考】B
Decision-making can be extremely difficult. Decision-making styles are significantly different in different cultures.
In any approach to a problem and in any negotiations, the Western world turns to the―I to you‖ approach while Japan，the ―you to you‖ approach. The former means both sides present their arguments openly from their own point of view. Naturally, often comes a confrontation(冲突) situation, which Westerners are very skillful in dealing with. The latter is based on each side trying to understand the other person‘s point of view. Thus, the direc tion of the meeting is a mutual(相互的) attempt to reduce confrontation and achieve harmony.
Besides, Western decision-making goes mostly from top management(管理人员) and often does not consult middle management or the worker. However, in Japan great consideration is given to the thoughts and opinions of everyone at all levels. Based on ―bottom-up direction‖, ideas can be created at the lowest levels, travel upward through an organization and have an effect on the final decision.
Difference in decision-making also comes from different communication styles. The Japanese business person works to achieve harmony, even if the deal falls through, and will spend whatever time is necessary to determine a ―you to you‖ approach, communicating personal views only indirect ly. They put a thorough job above the Western deadline approach. So the Japanese are thorough in their meetings. Thus Americans are often annoyed by the many meetings in many Japanese businesses. But where the American is pressing for a specific decision, the Japanese is trying to think up a rather broad direction.
On the other hand, once a given agreement is made, it is the Japanese who sometimes wonder at the slow pace in which Westerners carry out the decision. The Japanese are eager to move forward and Westerners, perhaps, lag(落后) behind as they take the time for in-depth planning.

D. They are good at handling confrontation situation.
63.The author‘s attitude towards Japanese decision-making is .

【2011·安徽江南十校联考】E
A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.
By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early on were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated（沮丧）and inflexible（固守己见的）.
Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn‘t show up on an IQ test.
The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists‘ concerns. But brain theory can‘t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.
Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people‘s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as ―character‖.
EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one‘s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients(要素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.
While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.
71. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that .
A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment
B. emotional intelligence won‘t show up until adolescence
C. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success
D. candy can be used to measure a person‘s emotional intelligence
72. Which of the following is true of EQ and IQ according to the text?
A. The higher a person‘s EQ is, the higher his or her IQ is.
B. The higher a person‘s IQ is, the higher h is or her EQ is.
C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.
D. Scientists have already discovered the way in which EQ and IQ work together.
73. The underlined word ―upbeat‖ in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A. kind
B. floating
C. excited
D. optimistic
74.Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?
A. To amuse both the children and readers.
B. To prove the scientist‘s wisdom.
C. To introduce the topic of the text.
D. To show us how to do an IQ test.
75.What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?
A. Information about famous people with high EQ.
B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.
C. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.
D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.
71.C考查逻辑推理能力。C信息从第2段第2句可推理出。
72.C考查逻辑推理能力。C信息从倒数第2段第1句EQ is not the opposite of IQ.可推理出。
73.D考查根据上下文推断生词词义的能力。D信息从该句中的sink可推理出。
74.C考查对作者写作意图和文章结构的把握。文章从make an experiment入手从而导出话题EQ。
75.B考查对文章结构的把握和逻辑推理能力。B信息从文章的最后部分some few fear EQ invites misuse
可推理出。
【2011·湖北黄冈黄州一中模拟二】（A）
Even with hit shows such as ―Desperate Housewives‖ and ―Grey's Anatomy,‖ ABC is tightening its belt as it weathers the U.S. economic downturn and tries to remain relevant in an industry challenged by digital entertainment.
―We are in one of worst economies in 70 years. We are looking at everything we can possibly do to be more efficient and more effective,‖ ABC Entertainment president Steve McPherson told reporters on Friday.
―We have to look at everything across the board from cost cutting to (using) other platforms for smart ways to broker our efforts. It is an ongoing process. It is not a one time thing.‖
McPherson, attending the networks‘ semi-annual presentation to critics, s aid last year‘s five month strike by Hollywood screenwriters had ―really hurt everybody‖ in the traditional television industry, and he acknowledged the networks had lost viewers to other forms of entertainment.
―The world has changed under these businesse s and we need to be incredibly diligent and confident in what we do, otherwise we will be left by the wayside.‖ he said. ―Tomorrow is here, now, and we really need to figure it out now and move forward.‖
ABC, a unit of Walt Disney Co, has lost about 9.7 percent of its prime time audience in the 2008-9 season compared with the same stage last year.
With the exception of current ratings leader CBS, the other two major U.S. networks Fox and NBC have also lost similar percentages since the 2008-9 season started last September.
McPherson said he hoped ABC would continue to ―take chances‖ on shows such as ―Lost‖ and ―Dancing with the Stars‖ that were seen as daring when they were shown for the first time. But recent new entries, such as ―Pushing Daisies,‖ ―Eli Stone‖ and ―Dirty Sexy Money,‖ failed to resonate with viewers and were canceled.
Despite the growing trend of watching television on iPods, on the Internet and on mobile phones, McPherson said ABC's main focus remained on broadcast.
―We are still a broadcast network and that is where our profits come from. The other platforms are important. But people ask ―Would we do a show that would be successful on the Internet as opposed to on broadcast? ... and those are always secondary thoughts,‖ he added.
56.The main idea of the passage is about__________.
A. the strike of Hollywood screenwriters
B. the decline of ABC‘s prime time audience
C. ABC‘s main focus on broadcast
D. ABC‘s feeling economic, digital pressure
57.The 3rd paragraph suggests to us that__________.
A. the economic situation is so serious that it will last long
B. cutting cost is the best way to recover from economic downturn
C. using other smart way can develop the ongoing process
D. sparing no effort can complete the ongoing process
58.We can infer that the last economic great depression happened ________.
A. in 1970
B. in 1970s
C. in 1939
D. in the 2008-9 season
59.McPherson‘s attitude towards ABC‘s future is full of__________.
A. doubt
B. hope
C. worry
D. confidence
56.D 主旨大意题。本文为新闻类文章，多出现在文章的第一段，结合第一段内容可以知道答案选D。
57.A 推理判断题。根据前面内容看是70年来最大的经济危机，再结合第三段―It is an ongoing process. It is not a one time thing.‖内容看，目前经济状况很严重不会在短期结束。
58.C 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句―We are in one of worst economies in 70 years.‖可以知道，现在是2009年，70年前就是1939年，所以答案应该是C。
59.D 作者态度题。根据第五段整个段落内容和倒数第二段他对ABC的重心仍放在广播上可以暗示出他对未来持自信的态度。
【主旨要义题实战指导】
《教学大纲》和《考试大纲》都要求考生首先必须掌握所读材料的主旨大意，这是对阅读的最重要、最基本的要求之一。不掌握主旨大意，就失去了阅读的意义研究高考题阅读理解，我们会发现，命题者越来越注重考查学生把握全文和中心思想的能力。因此，每年阅读理解题中的主旨大意题都在5题左右。
主旨大意题提问的形式主要有三类：一类是Main Idea型；二类是Topic或Title型；三类是确定文章的基调或者目的来测定对全文或段落大意的理解。
■常用解题方法：文章多是议论文和说明文，这就要求考生必须熟悉这两种文体的结构特点。这两种文体的结构特点可归纳为：提出问题——论述问题——得出结论或者阐明观点。掌握这一结构，就可以迅速掌握文章的主题，把握文章的脉络。
要想确定文章的主题思想，最容易且行之有效的方法就是找出文章的主题句。主题句在文章中的位置主要有五种情况：
1.读首句抓大意。说明文、议论文等多采用这种结构，文章段落的中心，即主题句在文章开头。因此，要寻找这类文章的主旨大意就需要研究文章的首句。主题句在文章段落中的位置通常有四种情况：开头、中间、结尾（含在开头和结尾同时出现，首尾呼应的主题句）、无主题句（没明确写出，蕴含在文章之中）。
2.读尾句抓大意。
3.读首尾段抓大意。
有些文章或段落的开头和结尾部分都有主题句。这种结构是为突出主题思想而使用两次点题的写作方法。这两个主题句在句子结构和用词上有所不同，而且在内容上前句和后句也不重复。
4.从段落中抓大意。有些文章或段落的主题句居中，这种文章或段落往往以一句或几句话引出要表达的主题，在主题句出现后，再举例子陈述细节或继续论证。
5.归纳要点抓大意
有些文章或段落无明显的主题句，只是暗示性地体现主题。这就要求我们在阅读过程中根据文中所叙述的事实或提供的线索来概括总结主旨大意。
●寻找主题句多采用浏览法（skimming）。浏览时，一般不需逐句细看，只需选读文章的首段、尾段，或每段的首句和尾句，重点搜索主题线索和主题信息。若属无主题句文章，则要根据从文中获得的信息，自己去归纳。在归纳过程中，考生要分清主次，看文章主要叙述的是什么，不要一叶障目，不见泰山。同时归纳总结时还要做到简洁明了，用词恰当。主旨大意题主要考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力，有时对考生的归纳、概括能力也有一定的要求。
“main idea”型主旨大意题也属于阅读理解中的深层理解题。这种题型中的干扰项通常和文章某一细节有关，许多考生往往只根据文中的某一信息盲目确定答案。
主旨大意题要求考生要善于抓取文章的主题句，主题句通常表达了文章的中心思想，找到了主题句，也就抓住了文章的主旨大意。因此，“主题句定位法”是解答主旨大意的中心思想贯穿全文，并没有用一句话明确表达出来，这就要求考生抓住文章中的关键词进行归纳概括。

（C）【2011·湖北黄冈黄州一中模拟二】
Everyone‘s at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn‘t done an eBay deal. So I decided to try my hand at online auction (网上拍卖).
Buying for beginners: Sign up on https://www.wendangku.net/doc/8b16889222.html,. Most items (e.g. tables, computers, and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with ―Buy It Now‖ and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away.
If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids（出价）for you .The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days, and when they finish you get an e-mail telling you whether you have won the item.
How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card（信用卡）.
Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends‘ advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.
The big things in life: It‘s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.
