(三)题干和选项中重复出现的信息是文章主旨
文章主旨除了在文章内容中各段出现,也会出现在各个题目的题干中或选项中。这要求考生有逆向思考的能力。大家想想看,如果这个信息在全文中不重要,它会在题干或者选项中反复出现吗? 肯定不会。故题干和选项中反复出现的信息作为文章主旨的概率很大。 例如:例:09年江苏卷A篇
56. While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they
A. are afraid of awkward silence with their families and friends
B. can both talk and watch the screen at the same time
C. think they can have a good time and develop relationships
D. have to explain the plot and body language to their husbands
57. After a vacation with her girlfriend, a woman would talk to her again on the phone for hours in order to___________ .
A. experience the happy time again B. keep a close tie with her
C. recommend her a new scenic spot D. remind her of something forgotten
58. What does the author want to tell us most?
A. Women‘ s brains are better organized for language and communication
B. Women love to talk because they are more sociable than men.
C. Men do not like talking because they rely more on facts.
D. Social conditioning is not the reason why women love talking.
59. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Women Are Socially Trained to Talk B. Talking Maintains Relationships
C. Women Love to Talk D. Men Talk Differently from Women
解析:四个题目只有第59题是主旨题。根据上述总结:题干和选项中重复出现的信息是文章的主旨,故寻找其他题目重复出现的信息。56题题干:women usually talk a lot,B选项:can both talk;57题题干:a woman would talk to her;58题A选项:Women’ s brains are better organized for language and communication,其中, language and communication是talk 的同类相关词。B选项:women love to talk;D选项:women love talking。所以得知:文章主旨是围绕women, love to talk, 或talk a lot 这种信息来讲的。故排除B和D。由于题干和选项中没有出现train这样的信息,证明其在文章中不重要或不是反复出现,故A错。四项中唯有B出现了women love to talk此类重复出现的信息,其为正解。
