第15讲完形填空-2018年初高中英语教材衔接

1、第十五讲完形填空【知识衔接】初高中课程解读初中课程高中课程初中英语中，完形填空突出 语篇，即重在文意的干扰， 把具体的语言知识融进具体 的语言情境中去，要求具备 通过上下文对整体文意进行 把握的能力。高中英语中，完形填空侧重于考查词语 搭配、近义词辨析、动词时态、句型结 构、复合句的关联和习惯用法等，又考 查逻辑推理和事理推断能力。要求具备 用英语获取信息和处理信息，分析问题 和解决问题的能力。初中知识回顾一.完形填空的特点完形填空是一种旨在考查考生的阅读能力、逻辑推理及分析归纳、综合判断能力的典型题，难易程度与初中教材相当， 词数在180-250左右。文中平土每隔25个词左右设一空。人名、地

2、 名、日期等不在设空之列。隔词数越少，题目越难；反之亦然。文体多以记叙文为主，首句通常不设空。考查内容集中在对名词、动词、代词、形容词和副词等实词的理解上。完形填空考查的就是能否在缺字，不认得字、词语的情况下，能否通过推理判断、综合分析等全面理解文章的正确意思，然后把答案填入空白处，使短文前后连贯、意思通顺、结构完整合理。二.完形填空解题步骤与要领第一步：细读首句，跳过空格，通读全文，掌握大意细读首句：明确短文话题，了解篇章结构 ，预测全文内容。跳过空格，快速通读，领会大意，把握中心。生词的处理：跳过、判断词性、了解大意、猜测。第二步：上下联系，逐句阅读，先易后难，初定答案。 答案要求 语法正

3、确，搭配无误，结构完整，意思通顺，前后一致，逻辑得当。怎样分析： A.从空格所在的句子单独考虑。B.从空格所在的前后 2-3句考虑。C.从整个段落、整篇短文考虑。思路一：分析句子结构，从语法和句型结构考虑。思路二：理解句子含义，判断句义关系，从词汇的意义、用法和搭配考虑。思路三：把握整体意思，寻找答题线索，从上下文考虑。思路四：结合前后语境，进行逻辑推理，从日常生活常识考虑。第三步：复读全文，逐个核对，验证答案，坚定信心。怎样验证答案：牛所选答案是否能使全文流畅，逻辑推理是否正确。具体实事是否成立，前后关系是否理顺。B语法是否正确，其中包括时态的选择、词汇选择、固定搭配等。在通读全文时最好在可

4、能的条件下将所选答案填入文章中，反复阅读。三.解题技巧1.上下兼顾、明确定位根据文章的上下文和前后句，寻找对选择有提示作用的词或句。这些词有时可能就是同义词或反义词。如：Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in other places it is very.A. deepB. highC. coldD. dangerous解析：根据转折连词 but的提示，可知空格内的词与shallow相反，可推测此处为 deep。Mrs. O Neill asked questions and she didn t scold us either.A.

5、 noB. certainC. manyD. more解析：根据后面的and she di& t scold us eite可推现厮填词汇应含否定含义，这样才能与 句末的either对应？故答案为no.2.疏通文脉、寻求搭配完形填空主要设题有这样几类：词语辨析、常识及逻辑词汇等。其中搭配考查，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:I had worked my head,as I had never done before.A. outB. overC. onD. off解析：work one s head off 是个短语，意即“

6、苦干，不停地工作”O此处指“冥思苦想”。to throw himoff the bus,“she insisted.A. problemB.needC. matterD. reason“ He doesnt have any money! ” the driver shouted . Well, that解析:四个选项中need和reason都能用在that sno-todo 11的句型中 根据上下文可确定应选搽reason才对，即“虽然他没有钱，但也没有理由把他从车上扔出去。烈精确辨析、合乎逻辑这里包含几层意思：1.四个选项中对词语进行准确辨析。2.上下文要合乎逻辑，这里一般指对连词或某些衔

7、接过渡的词语进行选择。3.所填词语应与上下文或前后能够对应，需合乎常理。Soon I heard a like that of a door burst in and then a climb of feet.A. soundB. voiceC. noiseD. crash解析：voice指人发出来的声音，noise 噪音范围太广，也不符合 door的常情，crash - 般是指东西摔碎或倒塌的声音 ，常译成“砰，哗啦，轰隆”等声音，只有sound最合乎要求。The next morning the stranger, actually a sorcerer (巫师),thanked her

8、by granting (允准)her26_that anyone who climbed up her tree 27 not be able to come back down until she 28 it.A. suggestionA. couldA. permittedB. demandshouldB. promisedC. permissionmightC. answeredD. wishmustD. declareddemando suggestionmight才能表示“可解析：26. Bo根据上下文可知此处是指她对巫师的一个请求。应选择建议， permission 许可， wi

9、sh 愿望。Co这里表示“任何爬上树的人不可以下来直到她下令。”应选择以，could 只是能，should 应该，must 必须”。Do根据词语辨析便可知 permitted 允许和promised 答应”在这里含义相近，者B不能选，answered 回答不合句意，只能选择 declared可表示“宣布，下令”。The woman was watching the incident. 46 the driver and the conductor raised their voices at the old man, she interfered（干预）.A. UnlessB. Althoug

10、hC. UntilD. When解析:这里意思是“那位女士正在观察看这个事件，这时当表示正当某人正做某 事，另一件事突然发生”，应使用若加口来引导。And video cameras can be used to people s actions at home.A. keepB. makeC. recordD. watch解析：句中动作的发出者是video camera,因此答案是 C,意思是记录”。4.遵循规律、借助常识完形填空里有一些设题，单凭语法或句子结构难于判断正确答案，有时需根据常识来判断。Pulling open her door, the man seized her by t

11、he neck and hair, and threw her out of the car onto the ground. She screamed,her purse and the keys.A. buryingB. forgettingC. offeringD. grabbing解析：D.根据常识，当一名妇女受到盗匪的袭击，她会本能地尖叫并紧紧抓住自己的钱包， 若是正开着车也会抓着自己的车钥匙。高中知识链接一.高中完形填空的特点.选择文章：所选的文章大多是有一定故事情节的记叙文或夹叙夹议的短文，难度与高中 教材大致相同，长度一般在 250到300词之间。.保留提示句：短文的第一句话多

12、是完整的，以期给考生创造一个语境，给考生以提示。.情景意义选择为主，语法选择填空为辅：完形填空考查的重点是以对文章的通篇理解和 词汇意义为主，以考查惯用搭配、常识和语法为辅。.单词填空为主，短语或词组的整体填空为辅。.逻辑性强：实词即所谓信息词汇为主（实词中以动词、名词、形容词和副词为主），虚 词为辅。.高中完形填空解题步骤.通读全文，了解大意。 首先把文章通读一遍，了解文章的大概内容。千万不要读一句填一句。跳过空格，浏览全文， 从整体上感知全文，理解文章大意，这是解题的基础。在掌握了短文大意之后，才可边读短 文边选择答案。在阅读过程中，也许有些答案会在脑海中浮现， 有些觉得很有把握或是不大，

13、 这时最好不要急于动笔，先读完。同时，要根据首句来推测文章大意，这对理解全文有重要的启示作用。首句常常包含解题有用的信息，由此可判断文章的大意或主题，还可据此解题。如果能顺利地理解开头的主题， 就能较快地领悟全文的主旨，理解的准确率也会大大提高。其次，在做完形填空时，要注意文章的题材，比如说故事类，说明类，等等。.瞻前顾后，逐步填空。由于完形填空的短文是一个意义完整、上下关联的语篇，它所讨论的是同一主题，行文中的替代现象和词语重复都是不可避免的。因此在解答时，应该瞻前顾后， 寻找相关线索，如同 义、近义词，有时甚至要直接搬用文章中的词语或短语。如果是语法问题，不仅要考虑时态、语态，还要考虑整个

14、词法、句法。如果是语义问题，就要从上下文分析，依据短文自身完整 的语言环境进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。在第一步理解文章大意的情况下，结合各选项的意义和用法， 遵循先易后难的原则， 先解决那些自己有把握的问题。对少数难题，通常情况下比较少，首先心态要好，暂时跳过，或许 在上文中难以判断的题在下文中就有暗示或者明显的提示，或许一个在前面不能解答的题在填出了另一空后会豁然开朗。同时，在做完形填空时，要注意中西方文化方面的差异，这将会大大简化复杂的分析与判断过程，节省宝贵的时间，顺理成章地选出正确的答案。.认真复查，相信第一感觉。(1)检查上下文的一致性：即时态、语态的一致，代词、名词、单复数的一致。(2

15、)检查表达法的习惯性：即习惯用语、固定搭配、句型词组是否符合习惯。(3)检查上下文的连贯性：及凭借语感，按照上下文，检查段落与段落，句子与句子之间的衔接是否连贯。这是检查中至关重要的一环，往往能纠正一处甚至多处错误。填空全部完成后，还要通读一遍，检查是否前后贯通、内容清楚、主题突出。复读过程中，如果有某些地方意义含混或矛盾，就应该依据文章的中心意思来重新考虑或者根据自己的第一感觉。三.高中完形填空解题技巧一、关注短文的语义场I .同一语义场的话题具有一致性。一般来说，在同一语义场内(通常是文章的一个小段落)其中心话题不会改变，可以利用段落的中心话题来确定试题的答案。如：I used to be

16、 a very self-centered person, but in the past two years I have really changed. I have started to think about other people before I think about myself. I am happy that I am becoming a 37 person.37. A. famousB. simple C. different D. skilled解析,C,本段的中心话题是作者自身情况的转变一由一个以自我为中心的人，转变成为 一个愿意为他人考虑的人口根据这个语义场可推

17、测，作者开始在考虑自己之前先考虑他人才 由于自己在思想方面的变化，作者变成一个一不同的人”，故37题答案为C。Leaping on a narrow balance beam (平衡木)is not easy. But Lola Walter, a 13-year-old gymnast, is an expert at it.To perfect her skills, Lola 36 for four hours a day, five days a week.A. runsB. teaches C. trainsD. dances解析：C。本段的中心话题是练习平衡木。与语义场相关的词汇t

18、rain (训练)就从所有的选项当中突显出来了，故本题答案为CoShe was very disappointed when she found that all the windows were51 and ratherdirty.A. transparent B. brightC. plainD. wide解析：Co本空后由并列连词 and连接，它所连接的两个词应具有相似性，即语义场必须一致。dirty这个形容词是贬义词，其前面的选项也必须是对等语义，故答案为C。plain在这里意为普通的”。n.有些情况下，同一语义场中的一些概念之间具有种属关系或上下级关系。如 food这个种 概念之下包

19、括rice, noodle, soup, cake, biscuit, porridge 等属概念。school这一范围之内可包括 teacher, student, dormitory, teaching building, staff, library, lab 等属概念，因此可用语义场的这 一特点来确定试题答案。如：It is easy to overlook the role that your body plays in influencing your mood (情绪).When you are 49, you may find yourself blaming work pre

20、ssures or an unknown future. However, itcould just be that you ve been sitting behind your desk too long.49. A. illB. poorC. unhappyD. unsuccessful解析：Co本空前名词mood是一个种概念。在所给的四个选项中，从属于，情绪”这个种概念的属概念只有岫app+一项，故答案为C&When she was little, her mom noticed that even though she couldn t see well, she was fearl

21、ess.So her mom signed her up for gymnastics when she was three. She loved the 41 right awayand gymnastics became her favorite.A. taskB. sportC. eventD. show解析：Bo sport是一个种概念。本空前后都出现了与这个种概念相关的属概念词gymnastics(体操运动)。根据种属概念的关联性，可确定本题答案为Bom.关注反义语义场及两极语义场的对立关系。有些情况下相邻的两个或数个句子之间的逻辑是完全相反的或相对的。如：战争 (war)与和平(p

22、eace)、建设(construction)和destruction (破坏)、贫穷(poor)与富裕(rich)。在对立关系中，表示对立的词汇一般成对出现。如：A man was trying to take a photo of a crow (乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower.7. A. relaxB. recover C. reactD. return解析：Do本空

23、前一句中的关键词left和选项D(return)互为反义词。根据语义场的对立或相对 关系可知答案为DoThe crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was repeated with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11A. confusedB. goneC. tiredD. drunk解析：Bo本空前关键词return同选项中的gone互为反义

24、词。根据语义场的对立关系可知答案 为B。W.关注语义场的分析和总合关系。在同一语义场中，常常会对某个概念或某件事情进行解释或详细的说明，这是一种分析关系；而对前面的内容进行概括和总结，则是一种总合关系。考生可依据后面的解释或概括确定答案。如：Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a1 in number.Human beings are born with this ability. Surprisingly , experiments show that many animals ar

25、e, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not notice. However, if you remove two, the bird generally leaves. This means that the bird knows the difference between two and three.1. A. riseB. pattern C. changeD. trend解析:C.根据本空后卜所列

26、举的例子可知,这些例子都在说明数量上的变化，即 后面的内容解释说明了change in number:故答案为C口The man had an 8. He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and theother stayed, but they did not fool the bird.A. appointment B. excuse C. ideaD. explanation解析：Co根据本空后叙述的内容可知，所有的这些做法是这个人所想到的一个将乌鸦弄糊涂的办法，故答案为CoNumber sense is not

27、the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a change in number. Human beings are born with this ability. Surprisingly , experiments show that many animals are, too.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15 is not much be

28、tter than a crow s.15. A. sightB. natureC. abilityD. belief解析：Co根据上下文可知，此处是对前面内容的总结，故答案为Co二、相关及相同词语复现在完形填空试题中，一些空格前后会出现与正确答案联系紧密的信息词（短语）。这种联系通常有以下几种形式： 信息词与正确答案属于同根词；信息词与正确答案是同一个词；信息词与正确答案是同义词或近义词。.空格前后的同根词信息词与正确答案是同根词时，这两个同根词会在短文中先后出现，陈述相同或相反意思的观点或话题。注意同根词复现时所提供的信息，并据此确定试题答案。如：It has been argued by

29、 some that gifted children should be grouped in special classes. The 1is based on the belief that in regular classes these children are held back in their intellectual （智力 的）growth by learning situations that are designed for the average children.A. principleB. theoryC. argumentD. classification解析：C

30、o本空前一句中出现了一个关键的信息词arguedo动词argue同本小题选项argument观念的基础之上的。是一对同根词。根据上文语境可知句意：这种观点是建立在一个) Every country has its own culture. Even though each country uses doors, doors may have practical functions and purposes which lead to 22 differences.A. nationalB. embarrassing C. culturalD. amazing解析：Co苜句句意；门在不同的国家用

31、成了自己的文化特点。据此推断，门文化在不同的 国家之间有差异口文章第一句中的由turu就是信息词事因此可运用同根词重现的方式找到正 确答案。n.空格前后的同复现词有时，信息词与正确答案是同一个词。这两个词会在短文中先后出现(可能相隔较远)，在文章的不同处陈述相同的观点或话题。如：The little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the hill and across the valley, sherode to the 47 of the golden house.As she got off her bike and put i

37、he end of my first semester, I was really 41. It seemed as if everyone but me hadmade friends and was having fun.41. A. carefulB. lonelyC. curiousD. guilty解析：Bo本题可依据对比关系和因果关系进行推测。本例通过我”与同学们作对比：由于同学们有许多朋友，所以玩得非常愉快；而 我”却没有朋友，所以非常孤独；故答案为B。It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left
