PartⅣListening——如何做主旨大意题在听力试题中,主旨大意题难度系数较大,它考查了考生综合、概括、归纳和分析问题的能力。任何一段对话或独白都是围绕一个中心展开的,有时主旨大意较明显,有时则需要归纳和概括。听力中一般设题1~2道。常见提问方式:①Whatarethetwospeakerstalkingabout/discussing?②Whathappenedtotheman/woman?③Whatdidtheman/womando?④Whatarethespeakersdoing?⑤Whathasthewomandone?这类题主要问的是该对话谈论的主题是什么。特点是对话双方都在谈一个内容。要求学生注意对话的完整性,在答题时把双方的内容联系起来考虑,概括出对话的要点。【典题印证】Whatarethespeakerstalkingabout?A.Awaytoimproveairquality.B.Aproblemwithtrafficmiles.C.Asuggestionforcityplanning.【材料复现】M:Airpollutionissobadinthiscity.Ithinkthegovernmentshouldstoppeoplefromdrivingcarsoncertaindays.W:Youhaveapoint.Airpollutionisaproblem,butnotlettingpeopledriveoncertaindaysisabadidea.Peoplehavetogotoworkbycar.M:I’mafraidIdon’tagreewithyouthere.Reducingairpollutionisreallyimportant.Peoplearesousedtodrivingthattheydon’tthinkaboutwaystodothings.Ifwestopthemfromdrivingoncertaindays,maybetheycouldthinkofnewwaystogetaround.W:Iseeyourpoint,butIstillthinkitwouldn’tbepossibletostoppeoplefromdriving.【解题思路】该段对话是围绕一个中心“Ithinkthegovernmentshouldstoppeoplefromdrivingcarsoncertaindays.”展开的。对这类型题,抓住短文的前两句话往往特别重要,因为前两句话往往是主题句,即使不是主题句,也对理解全文有重要的意义。有时为了把握所听内容的主旨大意,要从说话人的语气上体会主旨大意,抓住关键词,对语段进行整体理解。
