分析：根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容可以看出，A、B、C三項的內(nèi)容都只是從某一個方面闡述了一種觀點，而D項句子所表達(dá)的意思就較全面，高度囊括了全篇短文的主旨。
例（2）The first paragraph is mainly about ．
A．the teenagers‘ criticism of their parents
B．misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents
C．the dominance of the parents over their children
D．the teenagers‘ ability to deal with crisis
分析：短文意思是講年青人有時批評、責(zé)備其父母，認(rèn)為父母對他們間誤解負(fù)大部分責(zé)任是自然的事。而B項意思是年青人和父母間的誤解，C項意思是父母對他們孩子的統(tǒng)治；D項指年輕人處理危機的能力。根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，可以明確看出，B、C、D三項內(nèi)容都是從三個方面來論述
短文觀點的，而A項則較全面地、有針對性地表達(dá)了文章的中心意思，故為答案。       

（五）選項中表達(dá)意義較具體的、膚淺的（字面意思）一般不是答案項，而概括性的、抽象的、含義深刻的是答案項。

例（1）The population in the 21st century， according to the writer ．
A．will be smaller than a few years ago
B．will not be as small as people expect
C．will prove to be a threat to the world
D．will not constitute as serious a problem as expected
分析：選項A、B中都有small一詞，該詞在文中出現(xiàn)過，因而總覺淺，是字面之意。C項明顯與文章不符，而D項表達(dá)的意義比small要深刻得多。
例（2）From the passage it can be seen that employeeship helps one ．
A．to be more successful in his career
B．to solve technical problems
C．to be more specialized in his field
D．to develop his professional skill
分析：題意是“從文中看出員工素質(zhì)有助于人們……。” B項題即“解決技術(shù)問題”；C項意即“深化專業(yè)”；D項“發(fā)展職業(yè)技能”這三項表達(dá)的意思都比較具體，而A項則概括地有深度，包括了B、C、D三項內(nèi)容。
