　　篇章結構題解題技巧

　　對《考試大綱》中提出的理解文章的基本結構的要求，往往通過篇章結構題來考查。考生要學會把握文章的脈絡，理解段落層次之間的關係，弄清作者的寫作方法。英語的文章講究使用主題段和主題句。主題段通常在文章的開頭，簡要概括文章的中心思想，主題句根據段落的寫作手法的不同可能在段落的開頭，也可能出現在段落的中間或末尾。段與段之間常用詞語連線，承上啟下，使文章行文連貫，邏輯嚴密。為突出主題作者可能採用不同的寫作手法來組織文章，通過舉例、比較、類比等手法來透徹闡明主題觀點。高考對這類題型的考查主要體現在以下幾個方面：

　　1. 確定指代關係。最常見的提問方式是：The underlined word “they/it/…” in paragraph… refers to… …

　　2. 對句子意義或作用的理解。最常見的提問方式是：The sentence “… …” in paragraph … means ….; The example of … … in para….is used to illustrate/show … ….

　　3. 對段落大意或段落作用的理解。最常見的提問方式是：The last paragraph mainly tell us that … …; The purpose of writing Paragraph … is …. ….

　　4. 對文章組織結構的理解。最常見的提問方式是：How is the passage organized?;Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

　　在上述幾類題中考生感覺難做的題是第四類, 這類題是近兩年來出現的主要考查議論文結構的命題新方式,且逐步得到語言教育專家們的認可。並逐步推廣到對其他文體結構的考查。分析這一類的題我們看出：對文章組織結構的考查不外乎兩個層次。一是按段落的組織方法理解文章的結構，一是按寫作方法***論證方法***理解文章的結構。

　　首先，看看這樣考查從段落層次理解文章的結構。這類題經常用到的提問方式是：Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? 

　　下面具體看看05年江蘇卷E篇：

　　The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before changes for the better, changes for the worse, changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that put man in danger .Many things caused the changes, but, in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science.

　　Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter and of the universe, it has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life and of its continuous development. Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life.

　　The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will result in even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science—a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning; in applied science—a more reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment.

　　Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind. The application of science and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons, Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used, the result could have been the ruin of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals.

　　William Shakespeare said. “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn***紗線***, good and ill together. “The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities—science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the good? Are we biologically programmed for war?

　　72.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

　　理解文章段落結構，我們很容易找到答案A。
