题目解答

答案

B. A special program in the Museum of Modern Art.

解析

考查要点：本题主要考查学生对文章主旨的把握能力，需要根据段落内容判断文章的核心话题。
解题思路：

  1. 定位关键信息：文章开头通常会点明主题，但需结合全文内容综合判断。
  2. 对比选项：若文章开头介绍某事物，但后续内容聚焦于其某个具体活动或项目，则核心话题应为后者。
    破题关键：明确区分“整体机构”与“具体活动”的侧重点，避免被开头信息误导。

步骤1：通读全文，提取核心信息

  • 第一句介绍纽约现代艺术博物馆（MoMA），强调其收藏。
  • 后续段落重点描述“Summer garden”项目：活动内容、目的、举办地点和时间。

步骤2：对比选项

  • 选项A（博物馆本身）：文章仅在开头提及，未展开。
  • 选项B（特别项目）：占据后三句，详细说明活动形式、目标人群及举办细节。

步骤3：判断主旨
文章虽以博物馆开头，但90%内容聚焦于“Summer garden”，因此核心话题是具体活动而非博物馆整体。
