1.概括范圍太窄，只表達(dá)局部信息或某一細(xì)節(jié)，不能概括整篇文章的主旨大意。2.概括范圍太寬，所表達(dá)的內(nèi)容超出或多于文章闡述的內(nèi)容。3.無關(guān)信息：即文章中未提到、或找不到語言依據(jù)的信息。

主要內(nèi)容型

這種類型的題的關(guān)鍵是找到主題句（topicsentence）。主題句通常在文首、文末或首尾呼應(yīng)，有時也在文中，或者沒有主題句，需要根據(jù)文章所述內(nèi)容進行歸納。各段的主題句也常在該段的句首或尾句。議論文和說明文一般有主題句，但記敘文通常沒有主題句，需要歸納。三、解題技巧文首：新聞報道、議論文文末：記敘文說明文:文中：例子/假設(shè)例子/假設(shè)后進入主題沒有主題句：找反復(fù)出現(xiàn)的詞語判斷文章體裁很重要！找主題句的小竅門1)首段出現(xiàn)疑問句時，對該問題的回答很可能就是文章主旨；

首段出現(xiàn)具體例子或假設(shè)時，例子或假設(shè)后面的內(nèi)容往往就是主旨。

2)作者有意識地反復(fù)重復(fù)的觀點，通常是主旨；反復(fù)出現(xiàn)的詞語，一般為體現(xiàn)文章主旨的關(guān)鍵詞；

3)段落中出現(xiàn)表轉(zhuǎn)折的詞語（如however,thus,infact,actually等）時，該句很可能是主題句；

文章標(biāo)題就是對文章主要意思的概括，考查對全文中心思想的理解，因此，解答這類題的方法與解答主要內(nèi)容題基本相同，都是尋找主題句，或歸納主要內(nèi)容，但與之相對比，卻具備了概括性、針對性、醒目性的特點。推敲選項正誤的小竅門：1)正確選項不出現(xiàn)細(xì)節(jié)信息。2)正確選項一般不含過分肯定或者絕對意義的詞。3)正確選項一般有抽象名詞或概括性詞語。4)四個選項中，內(nèi)容相近或完全相反的兩個選項中，往往有一個是正確選項。5)干擾項特點：①概括范圍太窄，只含局部信息；②概括范圍太寬，所表達(dá)的內(nèi)容超出或多于文章闡述的內(nèi)容。③無關(guān)信息：即文章中未提到、或找不到語言依據(jù)的信息。

這類題的題干中常有purpose，或者后面接有目的的動詞不定式，如：intendto,meantto,（inorder）to。我們可以根據(jù)文章的主旨和體裁來判斷作者的寫作目的，因此，文章的首尾段或每段的首尾是閱讀的重點，作者的寫作意圖往往就隱含在其中。與寫作目的對應(yīng)的文章如下：1)toentertainreaders（使讀者愉悅、發(fā)笑）：常見于個人經(jīng)歷或故事類的文章。2)topersuadereaders（說服讀者接受某種觀點）：常見于廣告或議論文。3)toinformreaders（告知讀者某些信息）：多見于新聞報道類、科普類、文化類或社會類的文章，以及勸告性或建議性的文章。例題一：Howshouldoneinvestasumofmoneyinthesedaysofinflation(通貨膨脹)?Leftinabankitwillhardlykeepitsvalue,howeverhightheinterestrate.Onlyabraveman,oraveryrichone,darestobuyandsellontheStockMarket.Todayitseemsthatoneofthebestwaystoprotectyoursavings,andevenincreaseyourwealthistobuybeautifulobjectsfromthepast.HereIamgoingtooffersomeadviceoncollectingantiqueclocks,whichIpersonallyconsiderareamongthemostinterestingofantiques.首段出現(xiàn)疑問句時，對該問題的回答很可能就是文章主旨。HereIamgoingtooffersomeadviceoncollectingantiqueclocks,whichIpersonallyconsiderareamongthemostinterestingofantiques.……They…inventedwater-clocks.Indeed,anyseriousstudentsofantiqueshouldspendasmuchtimeaspossiblevisitingpalaces,statelyhomesandmuseumstoseesomeofthefinestexamplesofclocksfromthepast.Antiqueclockscouldbeveryexpensive,butoneofthejoysofcollectingclocksisthatitisstillpossibletofindqu
