Reading is fun! Besides for fun， we can also analyze （分析） texts to learn more from the texts and more about the texts． One way we can do this is by finding out the theme of the texts．
The theme of a text is the "big idea" that runs through the text， connecting the characters and events．It is what the writer wants to tell us through the story． Usually the theme of a text isn't told directly， you have to use clues （线索） in the text to find it out． ①Themes can be ideas like family，friendship，love and so on． The theme might not be just one word， but it might be an idea such as "Friendship is important．" There may also be more than one theme in a story． How can we find out the theme of a text？ The following steps may help you．
Read through the whole text Usually characters change as the story goes on， so the theme you get at the beginning might not be true at the end! For this reason， you need to read through the whole text first．
Find out the clue After reading the whole text， try to answer the following questions． What important events happened during the story？ What was the problem？ How did the problem get solved？ How did the character（s） change？ What did the character（s） learn？ The answers may help you to get the clues．
Get the big idea Read again for the writer's purpose of the text by answering the following questions．Was most of the plot（情节） around friendship？ Did the characters solve problems with their families？ Did the main character learn the importance of friendship？ If one of the answers is "yes"， you may get the big idea．
Check the big idea out If you've found a "big idea"， go through the text to find the evidence（ 证 据 ） that supports this idea in the text． For example， if there was only one small problem with a character's family， then "family" might not be the theme of the text． You might find more evidence for other themes．
