主旨题,顾名思义,就是让考生选出能够概括文章大意的选项。
本题问的是 “文章主要回答了下列哪一问题”;
明确题目考察类型之后,我们优先阅读理解文章首段和各段首句,再进行信息的整合提炼,得到文章大意:
文章第 一段:Tulips are Old World, rather than New World, plants, with the origins of the species lying in Central Asia. They became an integral part of the gardens of the Ottoman Empire from the sixteenth century onward, and, soon after, part of European life as well. Holland, in particular, became famous for its cultivation of the flower.
提炼:主要讲了郁金香的起源,发展时间和路径。
第二段首句:A tenuous line marked the advance of the tulip to the New World, where it was unknown in the wild.
提炼:进一步详述郁金香发展路线。
第三段首句:Tulips arrived in Holland, Michigan, with a later wave of early nineteenth-century Dutch immigrants who quickly colonized the plains of Michigan.
提炼:继续描述郁金香发展路线。
由此我们发现,文章主要描述了郁金香一步一步发展壮大的历史,故答案选C。
