高考英语复习完形填空:讲练解析11
高考二轮专题复习——完形填空when, where, who, what,即四个W,那么就是记叙文,很可能就是一个故事,为了测试语篇的理解能力,出题者特别注意选材的趣味性,其结尾往往出人意料,耐人寻味;若首句是提出或解释说明某事物,一般来说是说明文;若首句提出一个论点,那么就是议论文。
第二步:通读全文,把握大意。
做完形填空时要注意文章开头提示句的点题作用和短文中完整句的启示作用。首先要快速浏览全文,弄清各段落之间,各层次之间的内在联系,把握文章的完整性。只有这样才符合这种题型的解题思路。
第三步: 逐句细读,确定选项。
大致把握了全文的大意和作者的意图之后,就可以根据上下文,选取与文意最贴切的选项。此时,应遵循先易后难的原则,对有把握的选项“一锤定音”。对没有把握的选项不妨先放一放,接着往下看,往往会出现“柳暗花明”的情况。
第四步:再次阅读,复查答案。
复查时从意义和语法两个角度考虑,着眼于全篇。特别注意的是,我们所选的是“最佳”选项而不是“正确”答案。

具体操作中应注意的问题
1. 看清上下文,找准定位词
充分利用文章的上下文和前后句,找到对选择有提示作用的词或句。这些词有时可能是同义词或反义词。例如:
1) Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in some places it is very _____.
A. deep
B. high
C. cold
D. dangerous
根据转折连词but的提示,所填入的词应与shallow相反,因此答案为A。
2) Mrs O’Neill asked_____questions and she didn’t scold us either.
A. no
B. certain
C. many
D. more
and是一个并列连词;either为副词,用在否定句或否定词后加强语势,由此可以确定所填的词也应是一个否定意义的词,因此答案是A。
2. 理顺逻辑,寻求搭配
注意固定的搭配,包括动词与介词的搭配、动词与名词的搭配以及形容词与名词的搭配等,同时要根据内容选择正确的短语。例如:
Here’s a fellow who just walked into a bank and helped himself_____so much money.
A. for
B. by
C. to
D. of
表示“自取,随便拿”这个意义的短语是help oneself to…故答案为C。
3. 扎实基础,搞清辨异
Soon I heard a_____like that of a door burst in and then a climb of feet.
A. sound
B. cry
C. voice
D. shout
选项中的四个词都表示不同的声音,但B,C,D项的三个词都是指从嗓子里发出的声音,而sound则表示各种各样的声音。因此答案是A。
4. 看清执行者,确定所选词
And video cameras can be used to_____people’s actions at home.
A. keep
B. make
C. record
D. watch
句中动作的发出者是video cameras因此答案是C,意思是“记录”。
5. 寻求上下逻辑,从容确定关系
It has been many years since I was last in London_____I still remember something that happened during that visit.
A. and
B. for
C. but
D. as
根据句前的many years和句后的still remember答案应选表示转折的连词but.
6. 了解生活常识,确定相关知识
Immediately the officers jumped into their cars and rushed to the_____hospital.
A. animal
B. biggest
C. plant
D. nearest
在这样的紧急情况下,人们的第一个反应是到最近的医院就医,因此答案为D
典型例题
(2002·北京)
As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange
36
things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that
37
me so much. There was never total
38
, but a streetlight or passing car lights
39
clothes hung over a chair take on the
40
of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my
41
, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no
_42
. A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My
43
would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would
44
very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost,
45
on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home — that was no
46
. After school,
47
, when all the buses were
__48
up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one and be taken to some
49
neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't
50
the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears
51
all I had as a child was that of not being liked or
52
by others. Being popular was so important to me
53
, and the fear of not being liked was a
54
one.
One of the processes (过程) of growing up is being able to
55
and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.
