在考研英語閱讀方面，不少同學(xué)在閱讀、做題時按照抓主題的方法，著有成效，因此這一系列文章都是有關(guān)四個不同文章結(jié)構(gòu)的分析，這一方法，需要多加練習(xí)，多分析文章套路。今天老師就2008年考研英語text3教授大家如何進(jìn)行主題的把握。

第一段：In the early 1960s Wilt Chamberlain was one of only three players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) listed at over seven feet. If he had played last season, however, he would have been one of 42. The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.該段有三句話，一二句話從時間上進(jìn)行對比，說明現(xiàn)今NBA里個子高的人很多;第三句話是對這一現(xiàn)象的總結(jié)，身高變化了，因此想著要改變統(tǒng)一制服的尺寸以適應(yīng)身高的變化。千萬不要被這一段迷惑，主題遠(yuǎn)不是如此。

第二段首句：The trend in sports, though, may be obscuring an unrecognized reality: Americans have generally stopped growing.該句話一定注意轉(zhuǎn)折詞though，上述現(xiàn)象掩蓋了一個事實(shí)：美國人停止增長了---這才是文章的主旨。

中間各段落(瀏覽)三：Growth, which rarely continues beyond the age of 20, demands calories and nutrients – notably, protein – to feed expanding tissues.這句話在說人的身體增長考的是一些營養(yǎng)物質(zhì)。這是屬于細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容。四：Genetically speaking, there are advantages to avoiding substantial height.該段是說長得沒有那么高還是有好處的，接下來肯定是具體闡述好處。

末段：Genetic maximums can change, but don’t expect this to happen soon. Claire C. Gordon, senior anthropologist at the Army Research Center in Natick, Mass., ensures that 90 percent of the uniforms and workstations fit recruits without alteration. She says that, unlike those for basketball, the length of military uniforms has not changed for some time. And if you need to predict human height in the near future to design a piece of equipment, Gordon says that by and large, “you could use today’s data and feel fairly confident.”句首的but表明身高在基因上不會盡快發(fā)生變化，因此接下來又接著闡述制服短期內(nèi)不用改變，總之是在圍繞第二段的主題人的身高基本停止增長這一主題在說。

因此，總結(jié)來看，這篇文章首先擺出例子(但與主題相反)---though引出主題---論述主題---重申主題。這樣在做主題題目時，就會易如反掌。35. The text intends to tell us that----[A] the change of human height follows a cyclic pattern. [B] human height is becoming even more predictable. [C] Americans have reached their genetic growth limit. [D] the genetic pattern of Americans has altered.全文在圍繞人身高停止增長，很容易選出C;A選項(xiàng)說到人體身高的變化遵循周期;B在說人的身高是具有可預(yù)測性的，涉及到預(yù)測的只有末段，而且說得是要想預(yù)測參照最近身高標(biāo)準(zhǔn)就行;D說法錯誤。

閱讀文章要注意從整體上把握，這樣才能避免讀起考研英語文章來一頭霧水。在做考研英語真題過程中，要多多總結(jié)各個文章的主題出現(xiàn)位置，為未來考試做好準(zhǔn)備。祝大家復(fù)習(xí)順利，考研順利。
