概括段落大意

点击查看【2020年10月自考英语二考前复习资料汇总】

概括段落大意是在阅读文章之后从所给的选项中选择每个段落对应的大意。这个题目对于文章的理解有很高的要求。

解题方法：

1. 句首总结(大部分选项的描述都是对相应段落首句的概括总结)

2. 排除法(排除已经对应的选项与段落，将剩下的选项与段落进行再次对应，看选项的描述是否与段落描述一致，排除不一致的选项)

3. 关键词法(选出选项中的关键词，然后去段落中找这个词或与这个词意思相近的词。)

解题步骤：

第一步：通读全文，了解每个段落的大体意思，可做标注。

第二步：阅读选项，按顺序在原文相应段落中找到描述相符的句子。(基本为每个段落的第一句)

第三步：排除已确定的答案，将剩余段落自行总结，对比剩余项，得出相符的答案。(也可以用关键词法排除不符项)

Why English?

①The English language is used by more people in the world than any other language today. This may seem surprising at first. After all, the population of English native speakers (mainly from United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand) is one of the smallest in the world. The total only comes to about 400 million, which is less than one-tenth of the population of the world. If we count all the English-speakers in India, Singapore and some other countries, that adds another 700 million to the total. Add all those people who speak English elsewhere and the total English-speaking population of the world comes to an impressive one and a half billion.

②Why is this? There is one important historical reason: the influence of the British Empire-the Empire that stretched across the globe. Although the Empire no longer exists, the English language is firmly rooted in its former colonies(殖民地)- in African, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Far East, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean and North America.

③Other important reasons for the spread of English language are economic. English is the language of international business and commerce. Also, most scientific and technological developments have been made by English-speaking societies. To keep up with such developments, to talk about them in international conferences, or write and read about them in scientific journals and books, scientists, scholars and students must be able to understand English.

④ There is also a rather less obvious reason. English is the language af a popular culture. All over the globe, millions of young people listen to pop music and watch pop videos.The stars who perform in English are by far the most famous. Hundreds of American and British singers can be heard all over the world. English has become an international language.

⑤ English is well suited to this role. Unlike many other languages, it has a built-in flexibility(灵活性)that allows constant adaptation (改编)and assimilation(同化). In English, vocabulary from other languages is often used, new words and combinations of words can be coined(杜撰) easily, nouns can be turned into verbs and vice versa. Thus, what is correct in English is often, simply, what is accepted as appropriate and understandable by those who speak it, whether they are native or non-native speakers.

2.第二段讲到大英帝国的殖民扩张把英语传到了更多的地方，所以选 F。

3.第三段主要是经济，也包括发展。虽然有提及会议，但会议并不是重点，所以选 C 而不是 A。

4.第四段第二句 English is the language af a popular culture.表明了整个段落的重点就是流行文化，所以选 E。

5.最后一段提到了英语的灵活性，所以选 D。
