修辞目的题不光是针对一个词

其实，修辞目的题不光是针对一个词，一个句子进行提问，还会对整个段落甚至几个段落进行提问，那么这就是修辞目的题另一个重要的考点了—考段落功能。下边还是用例题来分析：

In addition to exploring the possible antecedents of theater, scholars have also theorized about the motives that led people to develop theater. Why did theater develop, and why was it valued after it ceased to fulfill the function of ritual? Most answers fall back on the theories about the human mind and basic human needs. One, set forth by Aristotle in the fourth century B.C., sees humans as naturally imitative—as taking pleasure in imitating persons, things, and actions and in seeing such imitations. Another, advanced in the twentieth century, suggests that humans have a gift for fantasy, through which they seek to reshape reality into more satisfying forms than those encountered in daily life. Thus, fantasy or fiction (of which drama is one form) permits realities…

Which of the following best describes the organization of paragraph 5?

A. The author presents two theories for a historical phenomenon.

B .The author argues against theories expressed earlier in the passage.

C. The author argues for replacing older theories with a new one.

D. The author points out problems with two popular theories.

不同于以往，这个题干里并没有具体的提问对象，而是某一个段落。像这种针对整个段落进行提问的，就是考段落功能类的修辞目的题了。那么这种题目该怎么下手呢？

需要找段落内部与结构/层次相关的词：比如one, another, besides, furthermore, and then 等等。那么这个段落里的有关结构/层次的提示词是one, another，明显是一个并列的结构。那么我们直接去选项里找跟“并列”意思类似的那个就ok。

A 里有two ，两个，很可能是“并列”；

B 里有argue，反对，这个意思是不能形成“平行”结构的；

C 里同样是argue，反对；

D 里同样有 two，但是意思是“指出了2个问题”，文中木有“问题”这层意思

综上，这个题的明显是A。So，我们在做题目的时候，首先要搞清楚题目类型，从脑海中调出相应的解题思路，然后再抓住选项的关键词，做题就会又快又准。
