三、阅读理解
专题训练(九)议论文的阅读
◆方法点拨
议论文通常用来讨论一个观点或现象,其内容主要有三部分组成:
论点、论据与结论。
论点就是作者要论述的观点,是文章的主旨;而论据是用来证明论点的材料,也就是支撑论点的理由和事实。
它可以是事例,理论,数据等等,结论则是论证后所得出的总结性观点。
写作方法通常是:
提出论点,分析或举例论证,得出结论。
阅读议论文的方法:
读者应该先搞清楚其结构。
首先通过寻找短文的主题句来确定文章主题,也就是论点。
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。
在浏览时,一般不需逐句浏览,只需选读文章的首段、尾段,或每段的首句和末句。
但注意,有些文章的主题句或者说“文眼”出现在文章的最后,此类文章往往以列举事实开头,通过论证,最后阐述核心观点,或者引用某个人的话印证自己的观点,以此归纳文章的主旨大意。
找出文章的主论点后,还需进一步找出每段落的分论点,以免分论点与主论点混淆。
◆活学活用
阅读下列文章,按要求完成读写任务。
