职称英语技巧：如何准确把握文章段落大意本段共三句话，每一句话之间曾现层层递进的关系：首句介绍现在住城里的人对食物和衣服的看法，由此引出第二句介绍人类祖先对食物和衣服的看法，最后通过对比古人和当代人对食物衣服的不同看法，总结出现在的人们和古人一样需要动物和植物才能生存。
如果大家时常遇到这种题，我们不难发现，主题句前面往往是接在专责关系词后，如yet， but， however， on the contrary等。
(四)【隐含主题句型】
A bus driver must answer questions while guiding a bus through heavy traffic. All day long， the driver answers the same questions without becoming angry. Every few minutes a bus driver has to ask passengers to step to the rear of the bud. In spite of traffic snarls and thoughtless passengers who cause delays， a bus driver is expected to cover his or her route on schedule。
本段共四句话，阅读完后会发现每一句话都在讲述公交司机工作辛苦，所以我们需要自己归纳出主题句“Driving a bus is a hard work。”。

2008综合B概括大意选段：
The US isn‘t the only country dealing with citizenship tests that aim to get a “shared commitment” from immigrants for their adopted country’s “values”。 In recent years， in addition to the usual requirement of language/work skills and economic status， several European countries have adopted citizenship tests. Britain introduced a new citizenship test last November. In March， a new Dutch law took effect requiring all would-be immigrants to take a citizenship test. It involved watching a video showing nude(裸体的) women bathing at beaches and gay(同性恋的) men kissing in public. The aim was to ensure that “newcomers will be comfortable with the country‘s liberal social mores(风俗)”。
