2.阅读中主旨大意题的题型分类与方法 主旨题
1.文章/段落主旨(main idea型) 2.标题类 (topic 或title型) 3.写作意图类(purpose型)
1.Main idea (主要内容)型
文章的主题句或者说“文眼”是贯穿全文的灵魂， 找到了主题句，就找到了解题的思路。 (1)主题句在文章中的位置通常有三种情况：开头、中 间、结尾（含在开头结尾同时出现、首尾呼应的主题 句）。因此仔细阅读这类文章或段落的首尾句是关键。
(2)找主题句的小窍门
1) 首段出现疑问句时，对该问题的回答很可能就是文章 主旨；首段出现具体例子或假设时，例子或假设后面的 内容往往就是主旨。 2) 作者有意识地反复重复的观点，通常是主旨；反复出 现的词语，一般为体现文章主旨的关键词； 3) 段落中出现表转折的词语（如however, thus, in fact, actually等）时，该句很可能是主题句；
