9、猩来袭击我家，当时父亲为了不让我”和妹妹不受惊吓，借故要我们上楼。之后，他因未来得及关上门而让大猩猩闯入了我家。再后，父亲上楼，大猩猩后面追，我闻知拿枪开门，并开枪打伤了大猩猩。最后父亲接过枪，开枪 将大猩猩击毙。A。类似的表达法有：one-eyed(独眼的)，three-legged(三条腿的)等(注：这是九十年代以来，高考英语完形填 空题中唯一道纯语法题，从此以后这样的纯语法题再也没有在高考完形填空题中出现过)。Co这里选 A,D显然不行，选 B(night)与语境也不符，因为既然是 晚上，父亲又怎么能通过窗子看到外面 的大猩猩呢？另外须注意的是下文(第8空之后)也出现了 evening这

10、样的暗示性的词。B。这里若选 C,D都显然不行。选 A(towards)的话，这是一个动态介词，表示 朝方向“，也不行，而选B刚好符合语境：正由于父亲坐在窗子对面(opposite the window),所以才能通过窗子看见外面的大猩猩。Do我”发现父亲的脸色变得苍白，这是由视觉得出的结果，所以这里选noticed最合语境。A。这里的still意为 J动不动”。Bo父亲发现大猩猩，脸色变得苍白，此时按理我要问问父亲出了什么事；但是由于妹妹有病(sick),所以我坐着一动不动(still),这显然是为了不 使妹妹受惊吓”，所以选frighten正合语境。Co联系上面的语境：为了不让妹妹受惊吓，

11、这时父亲虽然知道大猩猩来的危险，但仍用平静的(calm的声音借故要我们上楼去。Do因为这是直接引语，从语境上看此处应用一般将来时态(注：此题虽有其语境因素，但也有一定的语法特征。这类题在以后的高考完形填空题中很少出现)。B。此句的下文是：父亲要我们上楼去，也就是说他要与这位朋友“单独相处(alone with)。Co这里的obeyed意为 照办”。这从下文显然可知。A。联系下文，这显然是指听到像门被冲开的声音(heard a sound like that of a door burst in),因为从常识上”说，门被冲开“不可能发出像 cry, voice, shout等之类的声音。Do因为

12、上文说： 我”和妹妹上了楼，下文又说：父亲叫我”开门。 这就说明现在父亲正在上(up)楼梯。Co下文说：我从桌上拿起了手枪，这说明是有危险Ao因为我”和妹妹上楼后，把门关了起来，所以现在父亲是叫我们把门打开(open)Co此题 A, B选项易排除。(1为什么选 C而不选D呢？当时的情景是：父亲在楼梯上，我”从上往下看，通过父亲的肩膀，看到其后的是一只大猩猩。这里用 over表示我”与父亲有一段距离；若用 from,它表示的 是 我”从父亲的肩膀那儿往下看(即 我”和父亲在一起，不合语境)。B。这道题其实很简单，从某种角度上来说它主要考察考生是否细心。因为前文第一句就出现了in SouthAfr

13、ica这样的暗示。粗心的考生此处会选有可能A(South America)。D。若选 A(aiming at), C(shooting at)这显然不合情理，因为大猩猩怎么会能瞄准或 射击？选B(marchingtowards)与语境也不符。Co大猩猩被我打了一枪，并从楼梯上退下去。从常识上看，此时大猩猩应该是发出一个愤怒的(angry)的声音。A, 20. Do指当时父亲从我手上接过还在(still)冒烟的枪，又开了一枪；这一枪就击毙(killed) 了大猩猩。B。若选C(driven), D(forced),显然不合上文语境：父亲对孩子说 请你们上楼到自己的房间去好吗？”若选A(taken

14、)也不对，因take指自己亲自带去。选B(sent)正合语境要求。B, 23. C, 24. A。父亲之所以强作镇静把我们叫上楼去，一方面是为了使有病的妹妹不受惊吓，另一方面 则是他以为他能够赶在大猩猩进屋之前(before)把门闩(lock)好。但是，父亲未来得及，因为大猩猩太快(quick) 了。D。这可以从52空这一句的暗示可知。It was a cold winter s afternoon, Robert stopped for a moment as he crossed the bridge and looked down at the river below. There we

15、re hardly any 1 on the river. 2 the bridge, however, almost directly below, 3 was asmall canoe（独木舟）,with a boy in it. He was 4 wearing many clothes, Robert 5.

22、D. screen【答案与解释】通读短文，把握大意：一个寒冷的冬天的下午，罗 伯特在过一座桥时，忽听一个小男孩在桥下呼救。罗伯 特脱衣下水救小孩，但到最后却发现那是在拍电影，自 己做了 好事”，不但没受到赞扬，反而受到责备。B。选D显然不行，因为前面说罗伯特往桥下 一看“(lookeddown at the river below),其结果不应是 声音(sounds)另外按照一般的常识：一个人在一个 寒冷的冬天过桥时，他往桥下一看，他所注意的不会是 河面上是否有鱼(fish)或者波浪(waves) ”，而应是船 (boats) ”-无船，正说明天气寒冷”。C。此题选 B显然不行，因为 towa

23、rds意为 朝”，具有动态性，与语境不合；若选beyond(在之外或那边),与下文的almost directly below所表示的 语境不合；若选 from也不行，因为这其实是一个存在 句的地点状语，表示位置。A。从上下文看这应是一个存在句，故用there be句型。Do由于下文有罗伯特 打了个寒颤”这样的语境， 所以可以推知这个小孩应该是没(not)穿很多衣服。A。这是一个宾语从句前置的句子，正常语序应 是： Robert noticed that he was not wearing many clothes. 此题若选 C, D显然不合语境；若选 B也不行，因为 按照常识，一个桥上的

24、人看一个桥下的人，这个人穿的 衣服是多是少，他只能是注意到(notice)而不应是 看见(see) oBo从上文看，罗伯特打了个寒颤就准备继续往 前走。然而 就在这时(just then)他听到了呼救声。Do此题答案可从语境及语感很容易地推出(注意come from 意为 来自“JCo此题 A(on), D(under)显然不合语境；而 B 虽有些接近语境的要求，但within表示的不超过”、不 多于、在里面”等，还是与语境不符合。B。此题选 A、D均不合语境，因为his canoe不 可能 running, pulling ;选项 C(flowing)意为流，流动”， 也不合语境。A。下文要

25、说罗伯特脱衣下水救人，这当然是说他是一个出色的 swimmer。C。既然是脱衣救人，当然是要 潜入(dive into) 水中。Do这是一个寒冷的冬天的下午，罗伯特现在潜入水中，当然是 寒冷的(cold)水使他浑身颤抖。A。请注意语意的转折：虽然冷得发抖，但(but) 还是没用几分钟就游到了小孩这儿来。Co下水的目的是为了救小孩，当然是要到小孩(boy)这儿来。B。水中救人本不是件容易的事，加上这又是一个寒冷的冬天，就更是难上加难，所以这里用drag表 示拖”强调笨重)。Do从语境可显然看出：这里的意思是就在那时(at that moment)Co选项B(smiling)与下文的生气(angr

26、y)不符 合；选项 D( shouting)与下文的默默地(silently)不符 合；选项A(seeing)表示的是结果不合语 意。A。此处填 C(agreed), D(promised)显然不行， 因为上文并没有哪个人叫他往船这边游来，所以这里并不存在 同意(agreed)或 答应(promised)的问题。A、 B相比，显然A(decided)更符合语境，因为罗伯特发现 桥下有汽艇，且汽艇上人都往他这边看，所以他 决定(decide班汽艇这边游来。Do此题若选 B(till)或C(for),显然不合语境； 选A(while)虽然与语境有些接近， 但由于引导的从句通 常要是一个持续性的谓语

27、，而不能是终止性的谓 语。Bo从语境来看，只有B(looked)讲得通，由于 罗伯特是在水里，所以他看汽艇上的人，要 抬起头来 (looked up)。Do从下文语境来看：汽艇上的人是在拍电影， 现在他们整个下午的工作被罗伯特破坏，所以这些人看起来很生气”(angry)Ao 一个寒冷的冬天的下午，一个落水小孩被救上汽艇，同学们可以很容易地想到：该用毯子把他怎么样呢？当然是 包(wrapped)”起来。C。小孩被救上汽艇，罗伯特还在水中，此时由 于他并不存在生命危险，所以并不需要救命(save)；又因为连汽艇还没上来，不存在用毯子包(wrap) ”；至于感谢(thank)；从整个语境看那就更谈不

28、上了。B。pull out在这里指从水里拉出来 (即从水里拉 到汽艇上来)。Co由于下文说这些人是在拍电影，所以这时罗”伯特注意到跟他说话的这个是站在一部大摄影机(camera)旁。1992年高考英语完形填空真题详解The lecture on smoking was over at last.

A. lectureB.pointC. matterD.subject【答案与解释】Mrs Smith在一次演讲中，不慎将手表 遗失”，其后校长智查丢失手表。Do因史密斯太太在演讲前，是把表 放”(地桌上。A。从语境看，这里意思是说：我们正要(be about to),这时(when)。请注意其后的 when 一词在这里的含义和作用。Bo因为校长是要把孩子们召集起来(call us togethe

35、r),以便叫他们去 找”丢失的手表。Co校长叫孩子们去做一件事或工作(job),即我手表A / 6. Co校长知道这表是某个孩子偷去了，但又不知道具体是哪一个，所以他假装说这表是史密斯太太不慎丢了，叫孩子们帮她找一找。为了使孩子们更加相信，校长又说：这表只是从史密斯太太手腕中不知不觉地滑”(slipsf去的，并且说这事以前(befor他发生过。B。这里 See = Let $ seeCo注意搭配 make sth clear (表明清楚)，原句中it的是形式宾语，其真正的宾语是后面的(that) the boy whodoes so will get a useful reward.Do这里的

36、 do so是指前面提到的to find it(the watch)。Ao因当时孩子们没搞清校长的实际意思，以为是真的要他们从地上去找表，并认为找到表者真的有奖， 所以都开始找表，并希望自己有幸(lucky)找到这块手表。Do这里指Jim假装弯腰捡(pick up)东西。请注意这句中的as if(好像)对整篇短文的影响。既然是弯腰好像(as if)捡东西，那么实际就不是真的捡东西，所以他后来交给老师的手表就不是捡的，而是偷的。B / 13. B。此处的语境是：Jim捡”起手表，然后(the next moment)就满面笑容地(all smiles)跑到史密斯太太 面前，将表交给(turnin

37、g in) 了她。A /15.C。这里请注意 however(但是),in fact(事实上),angry(生气的)等这些关键性的语境词。按照一般常识， 你丢了东西，别人捡到东西交给你，你应该表示感谢和高兴。由于本句用了however这个词表示转折，所以这里的Mrs Smith并不高兴(not.pleased),甚至看起来还很生气(angry)。也正因为有了这样的上文，所以才有这样的下 文：Mrs Smith把表拿走 甚至“(ever谢谢都没说一句。至此我们再联系前文：校长和史密斯太太不是不知道这表 是被偷去的，他们用了这样一个计谋，现在使吉姆乖乖地把表交出来。这样一来，前后的意思也就顺理成章

38、了。Do 注意前文提供的语境：Let s make it clear the boy who does so will get a useful reward.Co这里选D显然不合语境要求，而 A、B两个答案与后面的不定式to write.不能搭配。B。这里的on意为关于。Ao这里的poor意为 可怜”，联系上文，这是显然的最佳答案。Do subject 在这里指 the dangers of smoking 这个 主题”。第 #页共60页第 页共60页1990-2010年高考英语完形填空真题及解析（全国卷） 1993年高考英语完形填空真题详解Jenlins was a jeweller, w

D /2 A。为了达到以假乱真的目的，当然要使假品极像（exactly like）真品。也正因为是 极像”，所以店主才 毫无疑问地接受了它 ”（accepted it without a question）。Do从含义上看，这里应填更有价值”这样的意思，所以似乎A、B都行，但由于 worthy表示 宥价值”时往往含有反语意味（见牛津现代高级英汉双解词典），故不宜选择。Ao从下文的 向飞机走去”这一语境，可知这里应是填flew（飞）。B。前文已告诉我们：这位珠宝商是先做了一个价值57000英镑的钻石戒指 （这是the first one）,后才照此做了个仿制品（这是the seco

47、nd one）。C。指戒指买主将遇火受损的次品戒指带来（brought货。Co请注意该句中的high, pay这两个词，能与它们搭配且意义通顺的只有price。Ao这里指陈述事情经过，即 事实（facts）Bo汽车起火，当然是出了事故（accident）Co在这次事故中，人幸免一死，而戒指却在火中受损，前后意思转折，所以选but。Bo火毁戒指，自然是由于火之高温”（heat）Bo事实面前，店主不得不承认”（agree）Do这里的ever意为曾经”，注意其前的否定词no,两者结合起来意为朱曾”，刚好合其语境。Ao这里的real（真）与下文的faulty（假）相对。D。请注意：从语境上看，其后的

48、it 指的应该是 Someone had taken the real diamond and put a faulty one in its place这件事，而不是指diamond ring这个东西。所以要选 did这个动词。Co从常识上看，这里应是将戒指的照片登在报纸”上，况且其后一行也有in the papers这样的暗示。D。从语境上看，这里选saw（见过）和recognized（认出）这两个动词均可，但细心的考生会觉得若选saw,则应用过去完成时态（had seen合逻辑。A o这里的showed指的是 刊登“。Co表示带花（手表、项链、戒指等）”，均用动词 wear。Bo从前文可

56、是在110层的高楼上走绷索，所以他是等候在这拥挤的街道之上“（above）Do既然有110层（stories）之高，这显然是指building,因为其他几个选项均不具备 层（storie灌样的内涵。Bo从下文看：这是 定绷索”，其他选项显然不合其语境。Co这里是指：小心地走了第一步 （step）,语感好的考生多少也会意识到take a step是习惯搭配。A。从下文看：他走绷索动作十分熟练；不仅能在绷索上走，而且能在上面坐下、跪下甚至转身等。所以这 里当他开始拿着平衡棍走绷索时，他应是很有把握（sure）Co这里的 with意为 用”。A。从上文看，这绷索是 在世界贸易中心的两个塔之间 ”，所

57、以他走过的是一段131英尺宽的 距离”。B。从其后的began to notice（开始注意）可知其主语应是 人“，因此可以排除 A和D;又因为passengers意 为乘客”，显然不合题意。Co 一个人在1350英尺高（110层楼高）的高空中走绷索，这当然是 奇迹（wonder）D。在地面上看1350英尺高的空中的一个人影，这个人肯定 很小（tiny）Co从语境（尤其是其后的 back and forth）显然可以看出只有C才最适合。A。从上文可知（同时请注意just这个词对语境的影响）。B。从前后动作的难度来看，显然 go on his knees要比前面的turn, sit down要难
