8、。(3)任何一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的，文章中往往会反复出现某个中心词，即高频词，也称主题词。抓住主题词，对于理解文章的主旨大意会很有帮助。典例(2011北京高考)As the railroads and the highways shaped the American West in the past centuries, a new electrical generating (发电) and transmission (输送) system for the 21st century will leave a lasting mark on the West, for better o

12、 in the West, this is not an argument against building them. We need alternative energy badly, and to really take advantage of it we need to be able to move electricity around far more readily than we can now.So tradeoffs will have to be made. Some scenic sports will be sacrificed. Some species (物种)

17、ng to throw off a lot of power and money in the region. There are chances for that power and money to do a lot of good.不难看出power and money是其主要关注的问题，因此B项正确。答案：B2Which is the best title for the passage?AHow the Railways Have Affected the West.BHow Solar Energy Could Reshape the West.CHow the Effects o
18、f Power Plants Can Be Reduced.DHow the Problems of the Highways Have Been Settled.解析：选择标题考查主旨大意的方法之一。文章的标题是中心思想最精炼的表达形式，它短小、恰当且醒目。通读全文，特别是从文章首句我们不难看出本文主要讲述美国西部建设中存在的电力问题以及在西部建造太阳能发电站的可行性问题，故B项为最佳选项。答案：B误区警示：对于主旨大意题，我们要准确地把握短文的主要内容，既不能以局部细节代替全部，也不能表达得太宽泛或涵盖范围过大，贴切准确是最主要的。比如选择标题性题目，我们可以采用逆向思维法去验证，即通过你选的题目，能否想到本文的主要内容。
