阅读理解主题概括题解题技巧
在高考阅读理解中，主题概括类试题的考查占有十分重要的位置。掌握所读材料的主旨和大意也是《英语课程标准》和《考试说明》对考生的基本要求之一。只有通过阅读掌握了文章的主题，才能正确理解文章，进而根据文章的事实细节推测作者的态度和观点。
主题概括题主要考查学生把握全文主题和理解中心思想的能力。根据多年的备考及高考实践，我们可以分析出阅读理解主题概括类题目的一般范围是：基本论点、文章标题、主题或段落大意等。它要求考生在理解全文的基础上能较好地运用概括、判断、归纳、推理等逻辑思维的方法，对文章进行高度的概括或总结，属于高层次题。
拟题大致有以下一些提问方式：
The text is mainly about ____.
The main idea／The general idea／The main purpose is .
What’s the main point the writer is trying to make in the
last paragraph?
What would be the best title /headline for the text?
This article mainly tells about the story of ____.
What is the topic of the text?
The writer’s purpose in writing this story is ____.
The subject discussed in this text is ____.
What does the second paragraph discuss?
The paragraph (passage) deals with _____.
Which of the following best summarizes the passage？
从以上具体的提问形式可知此类题目可概括为两大类，即怎样理解段落及文章整体的中心思想和怎样拟定或选择恰当的文章标题。下面结合高考题实例来具体分析此类题目的解题技巧。
一、段落及文章整体的主题大意的理解
文章是由段落组成的，段落是发展一个主题（topic）的一群句子，段落的主题就是段落的中心思想。而就一整篇文章而言，具体段落的中心思想又是为文章整体的中心思想服务的。寻找具体段落的中心思想的方法是：通过分析篇章结构，找出每小段的主题句，通过主题句找出文章主题。
主题句通常有这样的特点：
①有一个话题（topic）；
②有阐述控制性概念（controlling idea），通常在段落的首句或尾句，偶尔也可在一段的中间；
③有的文章无明显主题句，主题句隐含在段意之中，这就需要读者进一步加工概括了。
解这类试题应根据以下几个步骤，掌握此类题的解题技巧：
1. 寻找主题句，确定文章主题
在许多情况下，尤其在阅读说明文和议论文时，根据其篇章特点我们可以通过寻找短文的主题句来归纳出文章的主题。主题句在文章中的位置通常有三种情况：开头、中间、结尾（含在开头结尾同时出现、首尾呼应的主题句）。因此仔细阅读这类文章或段落的首尾句是关键。做主题概括类试题多采用浏览法（skimming），浏览时，一般不需逐句浏览，只需选读文章的首段, 尾段或每段的首句和尾句,重点搜索主题线索和主题信息。
例 上海高考试题阅读C篇
We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it. Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed-no examination is perfect-but to have to tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher. Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them-a form of favourtism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lake of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defend of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child form a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school. The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.
85. The passage mainly focuses on ___________.
A. schools and certificates B. examination and equality
C. opportunity and employment D. standards and reputation
主题分析 文章第一句We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.即点明文章的主题句：从正反两方面讨论考试作为一种升学就业的手段的公平性及其合理性。所以第85题答案为B“考试与公平”。
有些文章的主题句或者说“文眼”出现在文章的最后，此类文章往往以列举事实开头，通过论证，最后阐述核心观点，或者引用某个人的话印证自己的观点，以此归纳文章的主旨大意，所以有时要找出这样的信息，从中提炼标题或归纳大意。
2． 抓住文章段落大意，概括中心思想
寻找整篇文章的中心思想的方法是建立在寻找具体段落中心的基础上的。各段落中心句的整体归纳便是文章的中心思想。在这个过程中，考生们不能只依据只言片语、一枝一节，或光看文章的某一些段落，而应该观察全文的结构安排；理解文章浓墨重笔写的“重心”；考虑文章的组织材料及支撑性细节是服务于什么的；分析故事的发展结局都是围绕什么内容来表达中心的；最后用简明扼要的文字将文章的中心思想表达出来。
例 2002北京春季B篇
There are three separate sources of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power（原子能）． First，the radioactive material must travel from its place of production to the power station．Although the power stations themselves are strongly built，the containers used for the transport of the materials are not．Normally，only two methods of transport are in use，namely road or rail．Unfortunately，both of these may have an effect on the general public，since they are sure to pass near，or even through，heavily populated areas． Second，there is the problem of waste．All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years．It is impossible to make these wastes nonradioactive，and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented．For example，they may be buried under the ground，or dropped into deserted mines， or sunk in the sea．However，these methods do not solve the problem，since an earthquake could easily break the containers． Third，there may occur the danger of a leak（泄漏）or an explosion at the power station．As with the other two dangers，this is not very likely，so it does not provide a serious objection to the nuclear program．However，it can happen． Separately，these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry．Taken together， though，the probability of disaster（灾难）is extremely high．
64. What is the passage about？
A． Uses of nuclear power． B． Dangers from nuclear power．
C． Public anger at nuclear power． D． Accidents caused by nuclear power．
主题分析 第一段点明全文主旨：There are three separate sources of danger in
supplying energy by nuclear power（原子能）.为文章的主题句。接着从三个方面论述主题：First…，Second…，Third…，段首第一句分别为各段的主题句，层次分明，结构清晰，最后一段作者进一步归纳全文大意：Dangers from nuclearpower。此题答案为B。
3． 抓住文章主线和关键词语，归纳文章中心
要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句，有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章，就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析，概括出段落的主题，从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是，先弄清该段落主要讲了那几方面的内容，这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系，然后加以归纳形成主题。
例 NMET1999全国卷A篇51题
Tom Brennan was working in a Philadelphia office building when he noticed a black bag. The bag contained a book. This chance discovery ended a 12-day search by the Library Company of Philadelphia for a historical treasure--a 120-page diary kept 190 years age by Deborah Logan, “a woman who knew everybody in her day,” James Green, the librarian told the magazine American Libraries. Most of the diary is a record of big events in Philadelphia,It also includes a description of British soldiers burning Washington.D. C in the war of 1812.She describes President James Madison on horseback as “perfectly shaking with fear” during the troubled days. George Washington, she writes, mistook her for the wife of a French man， and praised her excellent English．The adventure of the lost book began September 4 when Cory Luxmoore arrived from England to deliver the diary of his ancestor(祖先)to the Library Company, which he and his wife considered to be the best home for the diary. Green told American Libraries he had the diary in his possession “about five minutes” when Luxmoore took it back because he had promised to show it to one other person. On returning to his hotel after showing the precious book to Green, Luxmoore was shocked to realize that he had left it in the taxi.
Without any delay, Green began calling every taxi company in the city, with no luck, “I’ve felt sick since then, ” Luxmoore told reporters. According to Green， no one has yet learned how the diary came to the office building. Tom Brennan received a reward(奖励)of 1,000,Philadelphia gained another treasure for its history, and Luxmoore told reporters, “It’s wonderful news. I’m on high”.
51. This article mainly tells about the story of _____.
A. A lost diary B. Deborah
C. Cory Luxmoore D. The Library Company
主题分析 解题时必须首先理顺文章时间顺序：
1. Deborah Logan kept a 120-page diary 190 years ago.
2. Cory Luxmoore delivered the diary to the library Company.
3. James Green, the librarian, had the diary in his possession about five minutes.
4. Cory Luxmoore left the diary in the taxi.
5. Tom Brennan noticed a black bag， which contained a book (the diary).
从以上的时间顺序中，可以清楚地看到整个时间段内所发生的事情均与the diary有关，是贯穿全文的主线，故此题应选A。
二、文章标题的选择或拟定
标题位于文章之首，用来高度概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它是段落中心思想的最精炼的表达形式。
文章标题可以是单词，短语，也可以是句子。标题可帮助读者迅速推测出整篇文章的主要内容，抓住文章讨论的中心，把握作者的观点和意图。它的特点是：短小精悍，多为一短语；涵盖性强，一般要求能覆盖全文，其确定的范围要恰当，既不能太大，也不能太小，恰如帽子，太大能遮太阳却也遮了眼睛，太小则发挥不了应起的作用且风一吹必跑；精确性强，不能随意改变语言表意的程度及色彩。那么如何选择文章的标题呢？
1. 要在阅读原文的基础上，仔细考虑这句话或短语与文章主题是否有密切的联系；
2. 再看它对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何；
3. 要注意题目是过大还是过小；
4.要避免下列三种错误：①概括不够（多表现为部分代整体，从而导致范围太小）；②过度概括（多表现为人为扩大范围）；③以事实、细节替代抽象具体的大意。要恰当地选好标题，还需要了解标题的基本拟定方式。一般来说，标题的拟定方式是：以话题为核心，将控制性概念的词按一定的语法浓缩为概括主题句句意或中心思想的词组。比如某一文章的中心句子为： Coffee is a universal beverage that is served in different ways around the world．
话题：Coffee
控制性概念：is a universal beverage that is served in different ways around the world
标题：Coffee Around the World
例 北京B篇
Good tool design is important in the prevention of overuse injuries. Well-designed tools and equipment will require less force to operate them and prevent awkward（别扭的）hand positions. They will allow the worker to keep the elbows（肘）next to the body to prevent damage to the shoulder and arm. Overuse injuries can therefore be prevented or reduced if the employer provides, and workers use:
●power tools rather than having to use muscle（肌肉）power
●tools with specially designed handles that allow the wrist（手腕）to keep straight
(See figure 1). This means that hands and wrists are kept in the same position as they would be if they were hanging relaxed at a person’s side
Figure l. Bend the tool, not the wrist
●tools with handles that can be held comfortably by the whole hand. This means having a selection of sizes-remember that tools that provide a comfortable firm hold for a person with a very large hand may be awkward for someone with a very small hand. This is a particularly important consideration for women who may use tools originally designed for men.
●tools that do not press fingers (or flesh) between the handles, and whose handles do not have sharp edges or a small surface area.
60． What is the best title for the passage?
A． Good Tool Design for Women. B． Importance of Good Tool Design.
C． Tool Design and Prevention of Injuries. D． Overuse of Tools and Worker Protection.
主题分析 本文是一篇说明文，Good tool design is important in the prevention of overuse
injuries.句首第一句先点明文章的主题，“工具的良好设计在防止伤害方面是非常重要的”。下面一段则分别说明了好的工具设计的几项标准。从此可知考题第60题答案为C。选项A和B对文章主题“概括不够”。选项D与主题无关。
有些文章像记叙文，主题思想不是通过一两句话就可以表达的。这时就需要通过阅读全文，抓关键字眼或主要话题来归纳文章主题。
例2005全国III卷A篇
Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card came with it. Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender’s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper. But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She’d ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I’d delivered during the winter. As a girl, though, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into. One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn’t care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss
any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery(神秘). My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That
was the year the gardenia stopped coming. 41． Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A． A childhood Dream. B． A Mother’s Love.
C． A Graduation Party. D． A Special Birthday.
主题分析
本文写的是一位母亲在自己女儿成长的过程中以一种独特的方式--每年在女儿生日那天不署名送女儿一束栀子花来表达对女儿的爱。本篇围绕爱来展开，开头写暗送女儿栀子花，并鼓励女儿去想象美好。当女儿遇到挫折时，母亲鼓励女儿要坚强地勇敢地面对困难。以上这些关键事实充分说明了B项A
Mother’s Love. 正确。

篇7：历届高考作文题目
世上无难事，只要肯登攀。
——叶剑英
曾经，踏着铺满层层砾石的崎岖之路，我茫然;握着已被雨打日晒得满身疮痍的雨伞，我哀叹;举目眺望我将踏上的漫长历程，我祈盼……
曾经，面对人生的多舛，仰视成功的伟岸，跋涉已荆棘满布的丛林，我埋怨人生多难。于是，我要问，成功为何不青睐我的人生港湾;于是，我要问名人，问伟人，问英雄，寻找生命的答案。
问名人
我问那个在绿茵场上所向无敌，将自己的一生都献给足球的球王，他粗糙高举的有力的大黑手，似乎自信地告诉我：“只要你真心付出，上帝不会亏待你”。我问那腰缠万贯，稳坐世界首富宝座的商人，他微笑着，用手指着前方的那座高山说：“翻过去，你就能看见灿烂的阳光”。我问那长相身材都不能令人满意却能用气势磅礴的歌声征服世界的音乐家，他好像在自豪地说：“勇于拼搏，就能成功。”
我问名人，我会认真去铭记他们的教导，用心去践行他们的思想。
问伟人
我问贝多芬，他好像伸出手指，在钢琴上拨弄，琴声悠扬，飘进我的耳鼓。我的心随着音乐飞向远方。突然，琴声的节奏好似发疯了，冲上山巅，我的心也随之上升，直入云霄;猛地，琴声似乎低沉起来，我的心也随之跌入低谷，掉进浩瀚的大海水。最后，琴声又恢复了温暖与和谐，让我顿时觉得心情舒畅，全身舒展。我向他深深鞠了一躬，微笑着走开。
我问贝多芬，音乐使我心灵陶醉，情操高尚，生命灿烂。
问英雄
于是，我不再茫然，不再哀叹，这些历经沧桑的名人、伟人、英雄用心灵告诉了我人生的真谛，告诉了我生命的答案;我不再祈祷前路平坦，不再埋怨命运的多舛，将用心去迎接前路的崎岖。我坚信，世上无难事，只要肯登攀。

篇9：历届高考材料作文
古人云，“一寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴”;今人道，“时间就是一道金河，莫让它在你指尖轻轻溜过”;瑞士人认为，婴儿出生时拥有的财富就是时间。诚然，时间就是财富，拥有了时间就是拥有了财富。
也许有人会问，任何人都拥有时间，可是为什么有的人纵横四海，而有的人碌碌无为?为什么有的人事业辉煌，而有的人一事无成?为什么有的人腰缠万贯，而有的人家徒四壁?究其原因，是因为他们利用时间这笔财富的方式不同：善于利用时间的人会使自己神通广大，财富增值;不会利用时间的人只能使自己平平庸庸，坐吃山空。
一个人怎样才能利用好时间财富呢?
善于利用时间，就要学会珍惜时间。
人们问富兰克林：“你怎么能做那么多事呢?”“您看看我的时间表就知道了。”他的作息时间表如下：5点起床，规划一天事务;上午8点至11点和下午2点至5点，工作;中竿12点至1点，阅读、进餐;晚6点至9点，晚餐，谈话，娱乐，总结一天的工作。富兰克林对朋友说：“你热爱生命吗?那么别浪费时间，因为时间是组成生命的材料。”富兰克林一生成就卓著，曾参加起草了《美国独立宣言》和美国宪法，发明了远近两用眼镜和避雷针等。正因为他珍惜时间，才成为著名政治家和科学家。
善于利用时间，就要学会合理支配。
俗话说：“兴趣是最好的老师。”只有把时间利用在自己感兴趣的正事上，才能充分挖掘出自己的潜力，让时间产生出最大的效益。法布尔为了观察蚂蚁，竟然在地上从早趴到晚，对昆早的兴趣使他支出了几乎全部的时间，于是一部惊世之作《昆虫记》诞生了;莫里哀放弃经商，将他喜爱的戏剧作为毕身的事业，终于成为伟大的戏剧家;比尔盖茨在哈佛就读时中途辍学，将全部的精力投入到他所热爱的计算机行业，与朋友一起创办了微软公司，推出了dos和windows，成为世界首富。
善于利用时间，就要学会专心致志。
三心二意只会浪费时间，只有专心致志，才能充分利用时间，实现人生理想。弈秋是全国很出名的棋师，他教两个学生下棋，学生甲专心致志地听弈秋教导，眼观、耳听、深入思考，很快把棋艺学到了手;学生乙虽然表面上似乎在听，可心不在焉，“一心以为有鸿鹄将至，思援弓缴而射之”，结果白白浪费时间，什么也没学到。
时间就是财富，只有学会珍惜时间，学会合理支配，学会专心致志，才能充分利用好时间这笔最宝贵的财富，收获一个辉煌灿烂的人生。
篇10：历届高考材料作文
当赤裸的婴儿呱呱坠地时，他便拥有了生命中最宝贵的财富——数十年光阴。面对这样一笔巨大的财富，有些人善于支配，在生命的终结之时，他可以欣慰地说“我一生无悔”;有些人不善于支配，弥留之际，他只能遗憾地说“真希望从头再来”。由此可见，如何正确利用生命的财富便成了一个值得深思的话题。
一个人如何才正确便用生命的财富呢?
明未清初著名学者顾炎武七岁进私塾读书，十一岁开始读《资治通》，一直坚持不懈地读了几十年的书。正是由于他正确利用生命的财富充实了自己的头脑，才使他为后人留下了《日知录》等许多富有思想和学术价值的著作。
可见，生命的财富——时间，应用来充实自己的头脑。
人的一生可以燃烧也可以腐朽，关键在于自己。伟大的导师马克思在身体已经十分衰弱的时候对人说：“我一直在坟墓的边缘徘徊。因此我不得不利用我还能工作的时候完成我的蓍作。为了它。我已经牺牲了我健康的、幸福的家庭。”他就是这样利用着生命的财富实现着自己的价值，直到在写字台前的椅子上溘然长逝。
可见，生命的财富——时间，应用来实现自己的价值。
是社会给予了我们一切，我们就应该知恩图报，用自己一生的时间来回报社会。伟大的周总理从小就立志为中华之崛起而读书;然后参加革命，致力于共产主义事业;新中国成立后，又为国家为人民鞠躬尽瘁死而后已，他把自己生命中最宝贵的财富献给了社会。鲁迅先生“俯首甘为孺子牛”，一生从事文学创作，揭露社会的黑暗和国民劣根性，唤醒沉睡在黑屋子里的人们，为社会做出了巨大贡献。教育家陶行知致力于新中国的教育事业，用他生命最宝贵的财富回报了他的祖国。
可见，生命的财富——时间，应用来回报我们的社会。
生命的财富是宝贵的，我们应用来充实自己的头脑，实现自己的价值，回报我们的社会，而不应用来换取权力，换取金钱，换取名利，也不应在安乐享受中挥霍掉。
时间是生命赋予我们的最大财富，有了这笔宝贵的财富，如果我们善于支配，就可以使我们的人生放射出奇异的光彩;如果我们不能合理利用，就注定只能一生碌碌无为。何去何从，由你自己选择。朋友，请正确利用时间这笔生命的财富去创业，去经营，去收获一个美丽无悔的人生吧!
篇11：历届高考材料作文
要想“有用”，应多些“无用”之思
“有用”与“无用”，本是对立统一的关系，二者相互依存。没有“有用”，无所谓“无用”;没有“无用”，也无所谓“有用”。读书学习，要“学以致用”，自然要重视“有用”的东西，但也不能急功近利，只讲“现实主义”，不讲“浪漫主义”，人还有精神上的诉求，需要空灵和超脱，正如那棵“无用”的大树(引材料)。
生活在物质丰富今天的我们，是不是应当“多想些无用的价值”，对此有着不同的看法。复旦一位教师表示，“有用”能让学生踏上社会后，吃饱肚子，获得经济独立。而社会发展，也非“有用”不能维持。他不忧虑学生无远大理想，倒担心他们过早地向往“无用”境界，忽视基本功。当今时代，未缺“无用”之思，实乏“有用”之才。
这话不能说没有道理，可惜带有较大的片面性。学生读书成才，自然不能忽视学习“有用”的东西，以便“踏上社会后，能吃饱肚子，获得经济独立”，乃至过上富裕的生活。然而，人不同于动物，不是活着就是一切，不是只关心有助于维持自身的生存和繁殖的“有用”东西。人是万物之灵，“生命本是一张由意义构成的丰富之网”，需要大量对“吃饱肚子”虽然“无用”，但却富有“意义”能充实灵魂的东西。人要在“务实”中生存，更要在“务虚”中提升。那些能使精神升腾的东西，虽说对“吃饱肚子”无用，但却常常较“有用”的东西高贵。比如猪羊的肉可食，无疑是“有用”的东西，而龙凤是幻想的产物，对人的实际生活是“无用”的，可是，龙凤的地位却远远高于猪羊，“无用”所以胜于“有用”，在于龙凤是一种吉祥的象征，吻合人们的精神企求。再如，梅有子也有花，梅子是水果，可食，而梅花则无实用，只能供人欣赏。可是，历来人们赞咏的，多是梅花，而非梅子。像“疏影横斜水清浅，暗香浮动月黄昏”这样的名句，在对美的欣赏中，借物抒情，赞美了人应有高雅品格和幽逸情趣，有力地满足了人们的精神需求。这样，梅花、梅诗，也就成了“无用之用”。年轻学子的成长。是生存技能的成长，更是良好精神的成长，是需要“更多地想些无用的价值”的。
同时，重视“无用”的价值，还在于要破破当前危害特大的急功近利心态。不能什么事情都要求有立竿见影的效果，而是应当“风光长宜放眼量”。人类史上不少的重大发现发明，开始多被视为“无用”的。法拉第发现电磁感应，始初只局限在实验室里，曾被讥讽为“毫无用处”，法拉第回答说：“那么刚出生的婴儿又有什么用呢?”随后，运用电磁原理发明了电动机，人类由此步入电气时代，“无用成大用”。当下，社会上迷漫着急躁浮躁之风，做什么事恨不得都能“一口吃成胖子”，这是违反事物发展规律的。科技教育界难于造就突出拔尖人才，遂有“钱学森之问”。解读这一“问”，自然会涉及多方面原因，不过，内中最重要的一条，是急功近利，急于求成，只求“有用”，不容“无用”。要培养出突出的“有用”人才，需要宁静致远，潜心研究，“无用而大用”。时下所以缺少“有用之才”，并非“无用”之思太多，相反，而是“无用”之思太少。基于此，我以为，提出“更多地想些无用的价值”，是有积极意义的。
篇12：历届高考材料作文
有的人一辈子都在做有用的事，事实却证明一辈子都毫无价值;有的人一辈子都想做点无用的事，留下的东西后人却受用无穷。即使那棵大树真的没什么价值，但至少它能给人们以隐庇本身就是“有用”了。(引材料)。
“京城第一名家”王世襄，生于名门世家，却沉迷于各种雕虫小技，如放鸽、养蛐、驾鹰、走狗、掼交、烹饪，而且玩出了文化，玩出了趣味。荷兰王子专程向他颁发2003年“克劳斯亲王奖最高荣誉奖”的理由是：如果没有他，一部分中国文化还会被埋没很长一段时间。 人人力争上游自然是好，否则也不会有这30余年经济奇迹。但有用之学主宰一切，成功学成时代主旋律，又使当今社会如一个典型“上火”型社会：心中欲望太强、步子太大、动作难免变形，所谓“步子太大扯着蛋”是也。
人体上火了，喝剂凉茶能去火。社会上火了，亦需一剂能清心降火的药方：做点无用的事，关心点与己无关的事。前者清心，缓和焦虑症，自己与自己和解;后者解毒，消化社会戾气，与社会达成和解。
说中国父母是世界上最功利的父母绝不为过，早教经济、学区房、奥数班甚至已成为庞大“教育经济”的一部分，身处其中的中国父母，外人眼中是“虎妈”，自己心中是“孩奴”，里外都不是人。
18世纪的法国人卢梭说：“大自然希望儿童在成人以前就要像儿童的样子。如果我们打乱了这个次序，就会造成一些早熟的果实，既不丰满也不甜美，而且很快就会腐烂;我们将造成一些年纪轻轻的博士和老态龙钟的儿童。”
另一个爱把“这有什么用?”当做口头禅的，是中国的一些市长们。在房产开发、GDP数字这些“有用之事”面前，历史街区、文化保育实在乃太“无用之事”，它不能带来任何GDP数字增长、官职升迁或所谓的“城市虚荣心”。所以，文化界一边在为北京古城墙不保而叹息，那边七朝古都开封为修通公路，打算开挖古城墙。“十朝古都”南京市也打算借“城市危改”工程，将金陵古城夷为平地。 听闻，国内许多城市都酝酿把大学迁移到郊区，腾出市中心的黄金靓地大搞房地产。然而这无异与把我们的精神文化思想从我们的身体里剥离，我们是否可以想想，假如把千乘车马都可以在它的绿荫下隐庇的“无用”大树砍掉，我们又能获得什么呢?
