题型简介
上海高考英语阅读句子还原六选四说明文，主要向读者介绍知识、说明事物原理、解释操作流程或阐释社会文化现象等 。文本条理清晰，常运用小标题、逻辑连接词来组织行文，让复杂内容层次分明，方便读者理解。这类题型要求考生从六个备选项中选出四个合适的句子，填补文章空缺处，使文意连贯、逻辑顺畅，综合考查阅读理解、语篇分析及上下文衔接能力。
命题类型
主旨概括句：常位于段落开头，用来点明段落核心主题，起引领全段内容的作用，如选段围绕某种环保新技术展开，此空句子会概括该技术的总体特性。
过渡衔接句：衔接上下文，既总结上文要点，又引出下文话题，让行文过渡自然，毫无突兀感。比如前文讲传统教育模式，后文谈线上教育革新，中间过渡句就需关联二者。
细节支撑句：为前文提出的论点、概念提供具体例子、数据、解释说明，充实文章内容，让抽象观点变得具体可感，像提到健康饮食好处后，紧跟列举具体有益的食材。
结论概括句：考查对文章结论的概括能力，选项需要能够总结文章的主要观点。
解题思路
通读全文，把握大意：快速浏览文章标题、首尾段以及各段首句，明晰文章大致主题，明确是介绍科技产品、文化习俗，还是科普自然现象等，构建宏观框架认知。
看设空位置，预判功能：如果空缺在段首，大概率是主旨句，要找能总领全段的选项；在段中，多为过渡或细节支撑句，需联系前后文语义关联；处于段尾，可能是总结句，或是引出下段话题的过渡语。
圈画关键词，找呼应：在设空处上下文中圈出名词、动词、形容词等实词，以及逻辑连接词。比对选项，找出含相同、相近关键词，或是存在因果、转折、并列等逻辑呼应的句子。例如，上文有 “but” 表转折，选项也应有转折语义相关内容。
利用逻辑线索：关注文中 “firstly”“secndly”“mrever”“hwever ”“therefre” 这类逻辑词，它们能清晰展示行文顺序、语义递进、转折对比、因果推导关系，顺着逻辑链条筛选适配选项。
代入检查：把选定的选项依次代入原文空缺处，通读全文，核查上下文衔接是否流畅，语义是否连贯，语法有无错误，若读起来拗口、语义断裂，需重新斟酌选项。
题型01 主旨概括句题

关注段首或段尾：主旨概括句通常出现在段首或段尾，段首概括句要根据后文内容推断，查找同义词或相关词；段尾概括句则要总结上文。
利用关键词和重复信息：快速浏览选项和文章，找出关键词和重复信息，这些往往是概括主题的线索。
排除干扰项：干扰项可能过于宽泛、以偏概全或偏离主题，通过对比排除这些选项。

题型02 过渡衔接句题

理清逻辑关系：明确选项与上下文之间的逻辑关系，如顺逆关系、因果关系、解释关系、例证关系等，确保过渡自然。

Whether it’s finishing a piece f wrk, sending an email r ging fr a run, sme tasks can becme uncnquerable. The easiest way t deal with these tasks is t put them ff until later r never at all.

Peple cntinue t express different pinins abut nline friendship. Hwever, mst f them wuld agree that virtual friendships must nt replace face-t-face friendships. As ne life cach says, “a scial netwrking site shuld nly be the ‘add n’ in any relatinship.”

Fr example, studies have been dne n windbreaks in parts f West Africa. These studies fund that grain harvests were as much as twenty percent higher in fields prtected by windbreaks cmpared t fields withut them.
6 They seem t wrk best when they allw sme wind t pass thrugh the barrier f trees r plants arund a field. If nt, then the mvement f air clse t the grund will lift the sil. Then the sil will be blwn away.
Fr this reasn, a windbreak wrks best if it cntains nly sixty t eighty percent f the trees and plants that wuld be needed t make a slid line. An easy rule t remember is that windbreaks can prtect areas up t ten times the height f the tallest trees in the windbreak.
There shuld be at least tw lines in each windbreak. 7 The secnd line, right next t it, can be shrter trees and ther plants with leaves. Lcally grwn trees and plants are cnsidered the best chices fr windbreaks.
Windbreaks nt nly prtect land and crps frm the wind. Surplus trees can be cut dwn and used r sld fr wd.
Trees reduce the damaging effects f wind and rain. Their rts help prtect sil frm being washed away. And trees can prvide anther valuable service fr agriculture. 8

The Dance f Life
Befre children learn t talk, and withut having seen anyne dance, they express happiness thrugh simple rhythmic mvements r what we later recgnize as simple dances. 9 There are birds that actually have grup dances: circling, bwing, advancing, and retreating in unisn.
Nevertheless, it is nly human beings wh have adapted dance t therapeutic purpses. Dance as therapy ges back a lng time. Primitive peple first danced by themselves instinctively and fund, after a while, that repeated rhythmic mvements prduced a gd feeling. 10 This was the birth f dance therapy.
11 It was used fr a wide variety f purpses and n different ccasins: religius ceremnies, war dances, hunting dances, rain dances, planting and harvesting dances, marriage and funeral dances. Sadly, tday, many “advance” industrial scieties, such as the U. S. , have lst many f the functins cnnected t these lder dances. They have been replaced, fr example, with rave dancing which, at its best, invlves shaking yur bdy at a rave r nightclub.

Human activities are killing wildlife at unprecedented rates, with causes ranging frm envirnmental pllutin t the built envirnment. Fr sme bird species, night-time cllisins (撞击) with pwer lines are driving substantial ppulatin declines. 13 “We need frward-thinking methds t prtect nt nly large birds that are at greater risk frm pwer lines but als millins f smaller migratry birds,” says Anne Lacy f the Internatinal Crane Fundatin.
Half f all avian species can see ultravilet light. S James Dwyer, a wildlife bilgist at utility cnsulting firm EDM Internatinal in Frt Cllins, Cl., had the idea f using near-visible UV light t illuminate pwer lines. EDM’s engineering team and the Dawsn Public Pwer District develped such light systems and installed them n a twer supprting a pwer line at Rwe Sanctuary. 14
Richard Lughery, directr f envirnmental activities at the Edisn Electric Institute, wh was nt invlved in the prject, says the new UV system adds an imprtant tl fr use in htspts where endangered bird species nest and feed.
15 Insects did nt swarm tward the lights, nr did bats r night-hawks d s in pursuit f a meal. And Dwyer says birds are unlikely t cnfuse such near-grund UV illuminatin with natural cues such as starlight.
