初中英语专题练习-短文填空

17/17初中英语专题练习——短文填空解题技巧：1.第一遍通读全文，对文章有一个整体认识，了解故事的时间、地点、人物等之间的关系，为下一步填空打下坚实的基础，切忌看一空填一空。2.第二遍逐句阅读并填空，根据句子的语法以与上下文的整体逻辑关系用恰当的词填入空白，特别是有时根据意思可能有多种用法时，应填入恰当的单词并符合英美人的习惯表达，不要受汉语的影响。例如：“我看一看你的信”，关于“看”的就有六个，这就需要进行筛选，只能用read，不能用watch,see,look,havealookat,lookat等。3.第三遍复查答案。将填空的短文再完整地阅读一次，以检查全文是否通顺，所填答案是否最为合理，形式是否正确等等。Passage1TangLingoftensmokedcigarettes(香烟)inhisschool’swashingroom.Hestartedsmoking_1theageof14.OnedayhelearntthattheNBAstarYaoMing,anambassador(大使)totheChineseAssociationonTobaccoControl(中国控烟协会),askedpeoplenottosmoke.YaoMingwasTang’sfavoritestar,2hiswordsmeantalottohim.Hedecidedto3upsmoking.AccordingtotheChineseAssociationonTobaccoControl,about350millionChinesesmoke.Among4,50millionareteenagers.SunJiangpingofBeijingUniversitysaid,“Teenagerscangetcigarettes5,especiallywhentheirparentssmokeorshops6cigarettestothem.It’sveryimportant7A15-year-oldboynamedLiKunfromBeijingsaidhis8didn’tsmoke.Becausetheythoughtsmokingcouldmakepeoplefeelbadlyill,theyonlyallowedhimtoplaywithfriendswithoutsmoking.LivinginsuchagoodfamilyhelpedLisay9tocigarettes.SomeofhissmokingclassmatesoncetoldLithatsmokingmadeboyslook10,butLidisagreed.Hesaid,“Smokingisunhealthyandit’snotcoolatall.Pleasestopsmokingnow!”1.________2.________3.________4.________5.________6.________7.________8.________9.________10.________Passage2Aboutthreeyearsold,Ifeltverylonely.Ididn’tlikemyclassmates,myparentsoranyoneelse.Myclassmatesdidn’twanttotalk__1__meandmyparentswerealwayssayingthatotherkidswerebetterthanme.IthoughtIwasthe__2__unluckypersonintheworld.OnedayIhadabigfightwithoneofmyclassmates.Iwassoangry_3_Ihithimintheface.Justatthatmoment,aboystoodupand___4__thefight.Hewasthemonitorofourclass.Afterthat,heoftenhelpedmeandwebecamegood___5___.WheneverIgotangryorsad,hewouldhelp___6___tocooldown.Mylifebegantochangebecauseoftheboy,mybestfriend.Wespentalotofinterestingdaystogether.As___7___goesby,Ihavebecomehappierwithpeopleandthings.Andit___8____thatpeoplearoundmehavechanged,too.Myparentsdon’tshoutatme___9____moreandmyclassmatesbecomefriendlytome.ButnowIcan’tseemybestfriendbecauseheisseriously___10___andisstayinginhospital.HowImissthedayswhenweweretogether!Ihopehewillbeallrightandcomebacktoschoolsoon.1.________2.________3.________4.________5.________6.________7.________8.________9.________10.________Passage3Whatcanyoudotokeephealthy?Perhapsforchildren,healthyeatingisoneofthemostimportantthings.Herearesomeideasabout1toeathealthily.HavingbreakfastAgoodbreakfastisveryimportanttochildren.It’snecessarytohaveitinthe2.Butsomechildrenoftengotoschool3breakfast,justbecausetheywanttosleepalittlelonger.Rememberthatagoodbreakfastwillhelpyoustudybetter.Havingmilk“MydreamisthatalltheChinesechildrencangethalfakilogram(公斤)ofmilkaday.”TheChinesePremier(总理)WenJiabaosaidthisduringhis4toamilkfarm.Milkisalsoveryimportanttochildren’shealth.Itmakeschildrengrowstronger.It’sbetterforyouto5aglassofwarmmilk6goingtobed.Thatwillhelpyouhaveagoodsleep.HavinghealthyfoodHavinghealthyfoodisthemostimportant.Thatmeanseatinglotsofdifferent7offood,especiallyfruitsandvegetables.Don’teattoomuchchocolate84ice-cream.Someofyou85eatingfastfood,butinfactitisnotgoodforyourhealth.Trytoeathealthyfoodasmuchas86.Havehealthyeatinghabits,andyouwillhaveastrongbody.1.________2.________3.________4.________5.________6.________7.________8.________9.________10.________Passage4AndywasborninChina15yearsago．In2005,she1totheUSAwithherfamily．Asahighschoolstudent，shehasfoundmanydifferences2ChineseandAmericans：Aboutmoney1)Americansliketospend3thantheyhave，somanyofthemarealwaysindebt(欠债)．ButChineseusuallyspendlessthantheyhave,somanyofthemalwayshave4leftinthebank．2)TheAmericankidsthemselvesmaketheirownmoney．MostChinesekidsalways5theirparentsformoney．3)ManyAmericanparentsthinkthereis6needtosendtheirchildrentoanexpensiveuniversity．It’sdifferentinChina．ManyChineseparentswoulddoanythingtosendtheirchildrentoexpensiveuniversities7theirfamilyisn’trichenough．Aboutschool1)ManyAmericangirlstakepartinsports，dancingandsinginggroupswhilemanyChinesegirlstakepartinstudygroups．2)ManyAmericanstudentsthinkthatBisgoodwhilemanyChinesestudentsthinkthatBistoo8．AboutfriendsMostAmericanparentslettheirsonsordaughtersmakefriendsby9.TheyneveraskthemabouttheirfriendswhileChineseparentsusuallyenjoyknowingmoreabouttheirchildren’sfriends10manydifferentways，andusuallystopthemfromstayingouttoolatewithfriends．1.________2.________3.________4.________5.________6.________7.________8.________9.________10.________Passage5Maybeyouaremoreinterestedinsportsthaninhistory.Youprobablythinkyouwillneverbeatopstudent.In1,anyonecanbecomeabetterstudentifheorshewantsto.Ifyoucanuseyourtimewell,youmayimproveyourstudy2muchwork.Here’show:Planyourtimecarefully.Whenyouplanyourweektime,youshouldmakea3ofthingsthatyouhavetodo.Firstwritedownthetimeforeating,sleeping,dressing,etc.Thendecideonagoodtimeforstudying.Ofcourse,studyingshouldn’ttakeallofyourtime.Don’tforgettoleaveyourselfenough4forhobbies.Findagoodplacetostudy.Lookaroundthehouse5agoodstudyplace.Keepthisspace,whichmaybeadesk6justaco
