閱讀的重點不在多,而是有沒有抓到文章的精華重點,以及自己是否能理解分析
👉What is Main Idea?甚麼是 main idea?
✅The main idea of a paragraph is the author’s message about the topic.
✅簡單的說就是作者最主要想要表達文章的 “大綱”
👉How do I find the main idea?哪裡可以找到 main idea 大綱
✅大部分(非全部類型)的文章都可以從以下兩種簡單的方式找到文章最主要的核心:
🔜The 1st sentence of a paragraph (第一句)
🔜The last sentence of a paragraph (最後一句)
通常我會建議學生,看完一段文章後,是不是能用自己的話來描述這段大綱。
當學生可以用自己的意見來描述大綱時,那表示這段大綱已可以理解。
接著我們就可以往下一階段,supporting details
👉What is supporting details?
✅Supporting details are reasons, examples, facts, steps, or other kinds of evidence that explain the main idea.
✅Supporting details 細節是用來 “解釋” 主要大綱的原因、例子、事實、步驟或其他類型的依據。
👉Where can I find the supporting details? 哪裡找Supporting details細節?
✅簡單的說就是文章內來輔助說明的句子都可以算是supporting details.
👀我們來看一段文章如下:
Spots was a large grey and white cat. Spots lived in a barn on a farm. Spots liked living in the barn. It was warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There were many mice for Spots to chase. Best of all, Spots had a soft place to sleep in the corner of the barn.
剛有提到大部分的 main idea 可以從第一句or 最後一句來找到大綱
以這段來說第一句在描述是
Spot was a large grey and white cat. (一隻灰白色的大貓)
似乎無法說服是段落的大綱。
往最後一句看:
Spots had a soft place to sleep in the corner of the barn.
(穀倉的角落裡有一個柔軟的地方可以讓Spots睡覺。)
❗所以我們可以依照邏輯推敲出這段的大綱就是 The barn was a good place for Spots to live.
(穀倉是 Spots 居住的好地方。)
接著我們順著可以找出細節 supporting details:
❗Details 1: Spots liked living in the barn.
❗Details 2: The barn was warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
❗Details 3: There were many mice for spots to chase.
這些都可以算是描述 details 細節的部份。
運用這些簡單的技巧,不論是多厚的書本、多困難的文章,都能用這些來簡化文章大意和細節。
如果是幾百頁的原文教科書,只要能在每一段自己歸納出 main ideas and supporting details
並加以筆記,即使教授期末考整本書也沒在怕了👍
