学生如何确定这两段文字的重点内容？看第一句同样是讲述作者自己的亲身经历与研究领域，没有多大意义；第二句看主句内容threeshouldbespeciallymentioned：要特别提到三种方法，后一句讲的是三种方法怎么重要，没有多大意思。如果出题人给出此文的写作目的是什么？那么用归纳的思维来判断第二段小文字为重点，应为这是承上启下段落。Togetyourselfstartedinanewdirection，trytheThreeM‘s：（想让自己重新来过请试试三个M方法）那么用出题人自己的语言概况应为：Toencouragepeopletochangetheirbadhabits。

此三段文字都为观点类句式，如think，disagreement等。
第二：要了解中学阶段阅读的具体题型。针对考试当中经常出现的题型现归类如下：
A：缺少句子成分题型。如缺少主语，宾语，状语成分，这是考试中最长出现的类型题。
那么答案大致为：ourbrainwillgetadifferentimagefromeacheye
Eg2：Whydosomepeoplewelcomecompetitionaccordingtothepassage？题干为因果关系题，亦即原因状语的题型，还是一样要从原文找内容，而不是从头脑中找答案，不要记忆原文内容，要定位原文，精读原文，与四个答案相对应，确定标准选项。定位原文：Inmodernsocietythereisalotofdisagreementaboutcompetition。Somevalueithighly，believingthatitisgoodforsocialprogress。Otherssaythatcompetitionisbad。Itsetsonepersonagainstanother。Anditleadstounfriendlyrelationshipbetweenpeople。此段文字第一句即为主旨，开篇提出要讨论的主题，即现在社会中人们对竞争的看法。紧接着就是列举一些人的不同观点，证明分歧在哪里。故而出现some，others的句式结构，这是明显的列举方式。针对此题定位原文应为横线句：一些人高度重视，认为它有助于社会进步。那么答案为Itpushessocietyforward。含义相同句式不同，这是正确答案的设置方式，因为要体现出出题人的应为驾驭能力，要体现出解释的作用，理解的特点：即用不同的词或短语解释文中出现的复杂句式，paraphrasethesentence。

C.badmemoriesmakeusdifferentfromothers
D.takingthedrugwilldoharmtopeople’shealth
此三题是出自一篇阅读理解，都为缺少句子成分题型，所以第一步都是在原文定位句型。
第一题：定位答案句型如横线部分1，那么答案就在这一段，而不在于你的头脑之中。而且要体现上文提到的解释作用和特点，不是照抄原文只言片语，比如badmemories，terriblememories，painfulmemoriesorexperiences都可以，所以答案在定语从句Which中，为D。
第二题：第一步定位原文2。略过第二句，锁定最后一句的最后部分onlytheemotionaleffectsofmemoriesmaybereduced，应为中间都是过程的解释，我们要的是结果，答案为B。
第三题：此为类型题的一种即问某个专家的具体观点题型，此题必须针对原文找答案，找出原文句子的同义句或解释的句子。第一步锁定题干位置如图所示3。这一段较长哪句是重点？第一句为什么？看But一词，这一句是反对此种研究人的观点总结，后面举一个具体的专家观点，可以忽略而且第一句中because这部分为答案。答案为C
Doyouknowthatwomen’sbrainsaresmallerthanmen’s？Normallythewomen’sbrainweighs10%lessthanmen’s。Sinceresearchhasshownthatthebiggerthebrain，thecleverertheanimal，menmustbemoreintelligent（聪明的）thanwomen。Right？Wrong。Menandwomenalwaysscoresimilarlyonintelligencetests，despitethedifferenceinbrainsize。Why？Afteryearsofstudy，researchershaveconcludedthatit’swhat’sinsidethatmatters，notjustthesizeofthebrain。Thebrainismadeupof“greymatter”and“whitematter”。Whilemenhavemoreofthewhitematter，theamount（数量）of“thinking”brainisalmostthesameinbothmenandwomen。
WhichofthefollowingisTRUEaccordingtoParagraph1？
A。Greymattercontrolsthinkinginthebrain。
B。Men’sbrainis10%lessthanwomen’s。
C。Greymatterplaysthesameroleaswhitematter。
D。Menandwomenhavethesameamountofwhitematter。
B答案的10%是最好锁定原文的答案也最好判断对错，此句为主语与表语的篡改，错。
C和D答案都用了thesameas句式，找回原文，C答案明显的无中生有，D答案为篡改原文内容，因为文中的疑问是Sinceresearchhasshownthatthebiggerthebrain，thecleverertheanimal，menmustbemoreintelligent（聪明的）thanwomen。Right？Wrong。注意疑问句Right？，他的回答是Wrong，错在哪里？细看这一句，since很关键意思是：既然，而非自从，既然研究证明大脑越大，这种生物就越聪明，那么男人一定比女人聪明。对吗？错。再往下看Why？的问句后的回答即为结论：Afteryearsofstudy，researchershaveconcludedthatit’swhat’sinsidethatmatters，notjustthesizeofthebrain。Conclude结论是：大脑内部起作用而不是大小在起作用。A答案是从原文内容推断出来的选项而非只言片语的改写，是在解释最后一句的意思，故为正确答案。

如何判断这一段的重点在哪里？针对一段文字来出的题型无论怎么问，对错，总结，推断，举例证明什么目的，推出什么结论，所有的题的答案都是这一段中心句的解释。这段文字重点句是最后一句，因为那里有一个汉语翻译：直接推论，明显是个结论，所以是重点，答案就在这一句中，而且要格外注意最后的疑问句thenwhereistheplaceofthetruth？
中国人做的答案都很短，有强烈的总结性和概括性，不照抄原文。大意为：如果一个借口足够好即使它不是真实的，那么真理将摆在哪里呢？答案为C。
Thepassageismainlyabout_______。
A。waysofbeingmoreintelligent
B。differencesbetweenmenandwomen
C。studiesonbrainsbetweentwosexes
D。studiesonwhitematterandgreymatter
