　　此類題要求考生理解的是作者在某些詞句形式下暗含的真實(shí)意思。作題的關(guān)鍵是，記住句子的意思一定是和文章或段落主旨相關(guān)的，在把握文章主題和段落主旨的前提下，分析句子在上下文中應(yīng)該起到的作用和具有的意義。

　　練習(xí)：

　　….Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” he says……

　　By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water”, von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that _________.

　　A. plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinking

　　B. bottled water is clearly superior to tap water

　　C. bottled water often appeals more to dogs’ taste

　　D. dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste

　　選B

　　文章提到von Wiesenberger從小就對瓶裝水很有研究，并記錄下那些他最喜歡和的瓶裝水牌子。連狗都能分得清，足見主人對瓶裝水的喜愛程度。不喜歡不等于說“自來水不能喝”，故A錯。CD是單純的字面理解，脫離主題。
