华慧考博英语阅读理解之主旨大意题
阅读理解的主旨大意题一直都是各位考生的难点,今天华慧考博老师带着大家一起来解读主旨大意题的技巧和方法。
  首先,我们得明白主旨大意题是全局性的问题,也就是说只有读完全文,了解文章的大意才能做。因此建议不管主旨大意题出现在第几题的位置,这类问题最好在做完这篇阅读理解的其它题型后(如词汇题、细节题等)再去做,因为你在其它局部性的、细节辨认性的问题后,自然会对文章大意有一定的了解。这时再去做主题大意题,才能更得心应手。
  ()主旨大意题常见的表述方式
  · What is the main topic of the passage?
  · With what topic is the passage primarily concerned?
  · The central idea conveyed in the above passage is that ______

  ()主旨大意题的解题方法
  1.重要位置解题法
  任何一篇阅读理解文章都有一个中心思想。尽管绝大多数阅读理解文章是从一片较长的文章中摘选下来的,但不管摘选一段还是几段,不管摘选哪几段,不管摘选长短,摘选下来的句子必须本身是自成一体的,是有中心思想的。一般说来,绝大多数文章的中心思想是用一个句子表达出来,其特点是概括性的。观点中心思想句去哪儿找?
  一般出现在文章的开头。
  有时中心思想句出现在文章头上的后几段;
  有时中心思想句在文章结尾出现。
  2.主题句解题法
  主题句通常以判断句的形式出现,在文章中的通常位置为第一段首句、第一段末句和全文末句等地方。
  (1)主题句在首段首句
  (2)主题句在第一段末句
  (3)文章首末两段均有主题句
  (4)主题句在文章中间
  主题句出现在文章中间的情况也有,而且通常在第二段。倘若如此,文章的逻辑结构通常属于下面两种中的一种。
  a.从现象(或问题)到主题,再阐述或论证;
  b.从一个观点(旧观点或大众观点,为作者要驳斥的观点)到主题(新观点,为作者观点),再阐述或论证。属于这种逻辑结构的,往往伴有表示转折的提示词,如buthowever等。
3. 段落中心串联法
有时候,文章的主旨大意,需结合考虑各段的中心意思,综合总结得出。


接下来,我们一起来看看医学统考的几道题几乎都符合这样的特征:

2019年医学统考阅读passage four  
You are what you eat, or so the saying goes. But a new generation of molecular biologists is starting to give that old adage a decidedly high-tech twist.
By combining the latest discoveries in human genetics with a deeper understanding of the hundreds of compounds found in food, investigators have begun to tease apart some of the more complex interactions between your diet and your DNA. In the process, they hope eventually to give consumers more personalized advice about what to eat and drink to stave of heart disease, cancer and other chronic conditions of aging.
“We are trying to put more science behind the nutrition,” says Jose Ordovas, a geneticist at the Friedman School of Nutrition at Tufts. “We want to finally understand why nutrients do what they do and to whom – why a low-fat diet may not work for some but works for others.”
Do you drink three cups or more of coffee a day? Genetic tests can now determine whether you– like approximately 10% to 20% of the population have a specific genetic variation that makes it harder for your body to absorb calcium in the presence of caffeine, thus increasing your rate of bone loss.
…………………………
76. What does the passage want to verify?
A. You are what you eat.
B. You are not what you eat.
C. The relationship between cancer and eating habit.
D. The relationship between technology and eating.

答案:B.
解析:主旨在文章第一段。文章第一段指出“You are what you cat, or so the saying goes. But a new generation of molecular biologists is starting to give that old adage a decidedly high-tech twist. 常言道,你吃什么补什么。但是新一代分子生物学家正着手对这句话做出明确的高科技解读。后文都在围绕转折之后的这个“high-tech twist”展开,论述日常饮食和 DNA 之间一些更为复杂的相互作用,基因和营养的秘密帮助人们了解找到适合基因特征的饮食,由此推断文章主要讲的是基因对饮食的影响,所以 B 你吃什么不一定补什么为答案选项。

2018年医学统考阅读passage 2 
Skilled clinical history-taking and physical examination remain essential as the basis of the disease diagnosis and management, aided by investigations such as radiological or biochemical tests, Technological advances over the past few decades mean that such investigations now can be refined, or even replaced in some cases, by the measurement of genetic or genomic biomarkers. The molecular characteristics of a disorder or the genetic make-up of an individual can fine tune a diagnosis and inform its management. These new capabilities, often termed "stratified(分层的)" or "personalized" medicine, are likely to have profound effect on the practice of medicine and service delivery.
Genetic medicine, which uses genetic or genomic biomarkers in this way, has, until recently, been the province of a small minority of specialized physicians who have used it to diagnose or assess risk of inherited disease. Recognition that most disease has a genetic component, the development and application of new genetic tests to identify important disease subsets and the availability of cost-effective interventions mean that genetic medicine must be integrated more widely across healthcare services. In order to optimize benefit equitably across the population, physicians and services need to be ready to change and adapt to new ways of working.
…………………………
70. Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?
A. Genetic medicine should be the mainstream option for physicians.
B. Genetic medicine poses great challenges to medical practice.
C. Genetic medicine will exert great influence on medicine.
D. Genetic medicine is defined as "stratified" medicine.

答案:C
解析:主旨在文章第一段。由文章第一段中“These new capabilities, often termed stratified(分层的),or "personalized" medicine, are likely to have profound effect on the practice of medicine and service delivery. (源于基因技术的)这些新能力(经常被称为分层个性化医疗) 有可能对行医和医疗服务产生深刻的影响。提出文章中心内容基因医疗将对医学产生重大影响和后续段落围绕这一内容进行,可推知C 基因医疗将对医学产生重大影响正确。                               

2016年医学统考阅读passage 3
Less meat and dairy in our diets could help reduce agricultural greenhouse gases by as much as 80% by2055, according to a recent study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). The researchers created global land-use model to project likely outcomes given different scenarios involving consumer dietary trends and changes in agriculture production methods. The models take into consideration population growth the world economy, and other factors.
The researchers found that, if meat and dairy consumption patterns remain constant of increase, the associated global agricultural omissions will increase significantly. On the other hand, a 25% reduction over the next 40 years would help bring levels to where they were around1995.
Methane and nitrous oxide in particular could be reduced if less meat and dairy is produced and consumed. These gases are caused largely by livestock waste and synthetic fertilizers. Around two-thirds of nitrous-oxide emissions come from agriculture--and most of that as a result of either raising animals or producing the feed used to raise them. Consumers' food choices, combined with what one PIK researcher terms "technical mitigation options on the producers side" could make an enormous impact on these emissions.
While not nearly as much methane or nitrous oxide is released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, both are significantly more potent and they form substantial pieces of the greenhouse gas pie. Both of these gases trap heat and radiation in the atmosphere much more effectively than does carbon dioxide. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency cites methane as being "21times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide over a100-year time period." Nitrous oxide is more than 300times more effective than CO2.
While the PIK study doesn't detail exactly which consumer choices and eating habits can help reverse the trend, it seems clear that less is more when it comes to consuming meat and dairy products.
75. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Eating Healthy
B. From Farm to Plate
C. Greenhouse Effect
D. Diet for a Healthier Planet

答案:D
解析:主旨需结合全文综合考虑。由全文主要讲述了“在饮食上吃更少的肉和奶制品能够帮助减少农业温室气体的排放”知四个选项中D项“(合理)饮食,为了更健康的星球”正确。
