2025年高考英語復習專項突破：閱讀理解之主旨大意題（原卷版）

高考題型逐個擊破-閱讀理解之主旨大意題

題型解讀

尋找主題句

抓住段落主題的捷徑之一是在段落中尋找主題句。所謂主題句，是指能表達或概括段落主題或主要內(nèi)

容的句子，它通常是一個簡潔、完整、具有概括性的句子，較多出現(xiàn)在說明文和議論文中，段落中的其他

句子則圍繞著主題句進行說明、解釋或擴展。抓住了主題句，就等于抓住了段落的中心。

1）讀首句抓大意。說明文、議論文等文章的主題句多放在文章開頭，抓住了主題句就抓住了文章的中心，

因此要尋找這類文章的主旨大意就需要研究文章的首句。

2）讀尾句抓大意。有時文章的主題句安排在文章的結(jié)尾，作為全篇的總結(jié)。

3）讀首尾抓大意。有些文章開頭和結(jié)尾部分都有主題句，這種結(jié)構(gòu)是為了突出主題思想而使用的“首尾

照應”的寫作方法。通常后面點題是進一步的總結(jié)，是引申，是發(fā)展。

4）從段中抓大意。有些文章或段落的主題句居中，這種文章或段落往往以一句或幾句話引出要表達的主

題，再舉例子陳述細節(jié)或繼續(xù)論證。

5）歸納分析抓大意。有些文章或段落無明顯的主題句，但字里行間無不體現(xiàn)主題。這就要求考生在閱讀

過程中根據(jù)文中所敘述的事實或提供的線索來概括總結(jié)主旨大意。

捕捉關(guān)鍵詞

略讀是概括和歸納文章或段落主旨大意的基本方法。略讀時要快，把注意力集中在關(guān)鍵詞（即實詞）

上，非關(guān)鍵詞（即虛詞）則一帶而過。分析歸納篩選出最能表達文章主旨或作者意圖的關(guān)鍵詞（例如有的

詞在文中反復多次出現(xiàn)，這個詞很可能就是最關(guān)鍵的詞），繼而確定文章的主旨大意。

仔細推敲選項

主旨大意題的干擾項往往有三種情況：一是“以偏概全”，選項范圍太窄，只表達局部信息或某一細節(jié),

不能概括整篇文章的主旨大意；二是概括范圍太寬，所表達的內(nèi)容超出或多于文章闡述的內(nèi)容；三是“無中

生有”，即文章中根本未提到或者不是指定段落的大意。

閱讀理解主旨大意題分類點撥

利用主題句在段首位置推敲段落大意

利用主題句在段中位置推敲段落大意

利用主題句在段尾位置推敲段落大意

利用段落沒有主題句推敲段落大意

利用“總-分-總”結(jié)構(gòu)推敲語篇主旨大意題

解題技巧

解題必備知能(一)

理解標題的3大特點

1.概括性——準確而又簡短；

2.針對性一標題外延正好與文章內(nèi)容相符；

3.醒目性一能引發(fā)讀者的閱讀欲望。

巧用3大方法確定文章標題

1.正面肯定法：在理解文章主旨的基礎上，揣摩哪個選項能準確概括主旨；

2.反面否定法：撇開原文，拿各個備選項去設想用它們寫出來的“文章”將是什么內(nèi)容，然后和原文章對照，

一一排除不符選項；

3.研讀備選項本身：研讀備選項里面的中心詞、修飾詞的變化、結(jié)構(gòu)、概括性等。

解題必備知能(二)

掌握尋找主題句的4個小竅門，快速確定文章大意

文章是由段落組成的。段落的主題就是段落的中心思想，具體段落的中心思想又是為文章整體中心思想服

務的。理解整篇文章的中心思想的方法是建立在理解具體段落中心的基礎上的。找出每小段的主題句，各

段的主題句常在該段的首句或尾句，各段主題句的整體歸納便是文章的中心思想。有的文章無明顯主題句，

主題句隱含在段意之中，這就需要進一步加工概括。觀察全文的結(jié)構(gòu)安排，理解文章的“重心，，和支撐性細節(jié)。

用瀏覽法(skimming),即快速閱讀文首、文尾，或每段的首句和尾句等，搜索主題線索和主題信息的方

法可以快速找到主題句。以下是找主題句的四個小竅門：

1.段落中出現(xiàn)表示轉(zhuǎn)折的詞語(如however,but,infact,actually等)時，該句很可能是主題句。

2.首段出現(xiàn)疑問句時，對該問句的回答很可能就是文章主旨。

3.作者有意識地重復的觀點，通常是主旨；反復出現(xiàn)的詞語，一般為體現(xiàn)文章主旨的關(guān)鍵詞。

4.表示總結(jié)或結(jié)論的句子常包含therefore,thus,inshort,conclude,conclusion等詞，通常是主旨。

解題必備知能(三)

歸納段落大意的2種方法

方法1：概括段落大意

要準確概括某段的大意，務必要知道該段的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)。

(1)如果該段是按總分順序組織，首句做總的說明，其他句子對其進行具體論述，這種結(jié)構(gòu)的主題句就

在段首；

(2)如果按分總順序組織，主題句就在段尾；

(3)如果按分總分的順序組織，則主題句就在這段話的中間；

(4)如果按總分總的順序，段落結(jié)構(gòu)相對難度較低，我們可以很明顯的看到一段的首句和末句的內(nèi)容幾

乎完全一致，正確答案就呼之欲出了；

(5)如果按并列式行文，這種結(jié)構(gòu)的段落一般會在一段中討論兩個平行的內(nèi)容，整個段落可以從中間處

分開，前后是平行關(guān)系，這樣的段落結(jié)構(gòu)對應的答案通常也會是很明顯的并列關(guān)系；

(6)如果對比各事物，那么它們的共同點或不同點就是該段大意。

方法2：揣摩段落大意

有時，作者可能不直接寫出主題句，而是通過各種方法暗示給讀者，這就需要充分發(fā)揮讀者的想象力

與判斷力，揣摩段落大意。
