20、義辨析和短語搭配等）。具體特點(diǎn)如下： 1．選材以記敘文為主，內(nèi)容兼有教育性和啟迪性 從體裁上看，完形填空題以記敘文和夾敘夾議文為主，議論文和說明文為輔。陜西卷這幾年基本上是以記敘文為主，總詞數(shù)大體在300詞左右。2012年各省高考完形填空題中，記敘文或夾敘夾議文有15篇之多。 從題材上看，完形填空題力圖選取一篇有教育意義和現(xiàn)實(shí)意義的文章。短文內(nèi)容新穎、時(shí)尚，選材涉及日常生活、文史知識(shí)、科技小品、社會(huì)熱點(diǎn)、政治、經(jīng)濟(jì)、人物傳記等。 2．首句一般不設(shè)空，全文保持一定的挖空密度 完形填空的第一句一般都是完整的句子。記敘文的第一句通常把短文中故事發(fā)生的時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物和事件等交代清楚，這

21、是考生在解題時(shí)理解并掌握全文大意的基礎(chǔ)。議論文和說明文的第一句很多時(shí)候是文章的主題句，抓住主題句便抓住了文章的主旨。 空格在短文中均衡分布。絕大多數(shù)空格之間的距離大致相當(dāng)，空格與空格之間的平均詞距約為11個(gè)，最小4～5個(gè)。 3．以語篇考查為主，單純語法考查很少 完形填空題以語篇為載體，立足于考生對(duì)全文的理解，既考查考生的語法知識(shí)、閱讀理解能力，又考查考生綜合運(yùn)用知識(shí)的能力。做題時(shí)需要感受語境，通過尋找上下文中的隱含信息才能作出合理的選擇。 另外，單純考查語法結(jié)構(gòu)的題目數(shù)量很少，重在文意干擾，每題的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)大多屬同一語法范疇。如果是副詞，則都是副詞，如果是動(dòng)詞，則都是動(dòng)詞。如果孤立地看

22、挖空的句子，每個(gè)選項(xiàng)可能都滿足句子的需要，將哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)填進(jìn)去，從語法上講都是正確的，但是要確定正確答案，只能根據(jù)全文的內(nèi)容和情節(jié)發(fā)展來作出判斷。 4．以考查實(shí)詞為主，虛詞為輔 選項(xiàng)詞匯主要是實(shí)詞，虛詞較少出現(xiàn)。2012陜西卷有17個(gè)題考查實(shí)詞，尤其是動(dòng)詞、動(dòng)詞短語和名詞的用法，僅有3題考查虛詞。 2010～2012陜西高考卷統(tǒng)計(jì)： 根據(jù)上面表格所反映出來的信息可知，和往年一樣，完形填空題重點(diǎn)考查的詞類為：名詞、動(dòng)詞、形容詞、副詞。這就要求考生具有很好的詞匯知識(shí)，能熟練運(yùn)用所學(xué)過的常見詞匯；還要求他們具有較強(qiáng)的語感，具有對(duì)語篇進(jìn)行整體處理的能力。做到“上下求索尋信息，左顧右盼找答案，

23、瞻前顧后想全文”，同時(shí)結(jié)合考生個(gè)人積累的各方面的知識(shí)正確解讀全文。 答題步驟 做完形填空試題，切忌孤立地從單句、個(gè)別空處著手選答案，這樣易脫離上下文，從而產(chǎn)生錯(cuò)誤。一般來說，解答完形填空題應(yīng)遵循以下三個(gè)步驟。 1．略讀全文，把握大意。 文章都有中心議題和中心內(nèi)容。通讀全文，才能全局在胸、弄清文脈、理清思路，才能抓住文章主旨，獲得整體印象，把握短文大意，使思維朝著正確的方向發(fā)展。在閱讀中要特別注意提示句，并盡量記憶關(guān)鍵詞、句，力求把文章內(nèi)容串聯(lián)起來。 2．細(xì)讀全文，初選試填。 在理解全文大意的基礎(chǔ)上，再結(jié)合所給備選項(xiàng)細(xì)讀全文，遵循詞不離句、句不離文的原則，聯(lián)系上下文內(nèi)容，運(yùn)用平

24、時(shí)積累的英語語法和語言知識(shí)及根據(jù)文中語義、邏輯和搭配的需要進(jìn)行綜合考慮，通過分析、比較和篩選，排除干擾項(xiàng)，初步選定答案。 在作出選擇的過程中，要瞻前顧后，通篇考慮，先易后難。對(duì)比較明顯直接的、自己最有把握的答案先進(jìn)行確定。對(duì)少數(shù)難題，可暫定答案，在復(fù)讀全文后分析推敲。 3．復(fù)讀全文，校核答案。 完成選擇后，要把所選的答案代入原文，再把全文通讀一篇，逐空認(rèn)真復(fù)查。完成后的文章應(yīng)該文意完整、語法正確、語言通順、用詞恰當(dāng)、邏輯合理、符合習(xí)慣表達(dá)法。如發(fā)現(xiàn)錯(cuò)誤或有疑問的答案，應(yīng)再次推敲、反復(fù)斟酌、做出修正。 技法指導(dǎo) 1．依據(jù)文章首句，判斷主旨大意。 依據(jù)文章首句所給的線索可以看出文章的

25、體裁，判斷主旨大意，掌握作者的寫作思路及其對(duì)某人或某事物的感情色彩。只有掌握了主旨大意，理清了文章結(jié)構(gòu)，了解了各部分之間的關(guān)系，才能加深對(duì)文章的整體理解。換句話說，考生應(yīng)對(duì)全文有一個(gè)清晰的概念，明白文章的各部分都是為了表達(dá)同一個(gè)主題，這樣在略讀時(shí)就更容易把握含空格的句子的真正含義，答題時(shí)就會(huì)顯得輕而易舉了。如：（2012·課標(biāo)全國高考） Body language is the quiet，secret and most powerful language of all! 剖析：根據(jù)首句可知，這是一篇說明文，介紹身勢語的特點(diǎn)、功能及作用。 2．根據(jù)文章大意，把握上下文的關(guān)系。 做完形填

26、空題絕不能離開上下文。很多題僅從語法角度來說，可能有兩三個(gè)正確答案，但是結(jié)合上下文，情況就不一樣了。上下文是形成語境的基礎(chǔ)，任何語言結(jié)構(gòu)、語法關(guān)系、詞語搭配都不能無視上下文的聯(lián)系。做題時(shí)，要學(xué)會(huì)瞻前顧后，要做到詞不離句、句不離段、段不離文。有時(shí)我們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，上文的答案在下文有提示，而下文的答案在上文中也有信息。如：（2012·課標(biāo)全國高考） According to specialists，our bodies send out more __37__ than we realize.In fact，non-verbal（非言語）communication takes up about 50%

27、 of what we really __38__.And body language is particularly __39__ when we attempt to communicate across cultures. 37．A．sounds　　　　　　B．invitations C．feelings D．messages 剖析：D　send out意為“發(fā)出，放出”，身勢語發(fā)出的不是“聲音”、“邀請(qǐng)”或“感情”，而是“信息”，所以選messages。 38．A．hope B．receive C．discover D

28、．mean 剖析：D　hope“希望”；receive“收到”；discover“發(fā)現(xiàn)”；mean“意味著，打算”。根據(jù)句意可知應(yīng)選D項(xiàng)，表示“非言語交際實(shí)際上占了我們表達(dá)的意思的50%”。 39．A．immediate B．misleading C．important D．difficult 剖析：C　根據(jù)連詞and可知，該句繼續(xù)說明身勢語的作用，所以應(yīng)選C項(xiàng)，表示“當(dāng)我們?cè)噲D進(jìn)行跨文化交際的時(shí)候，身勢語尤為重要”。 3．根據(jù)文章語境，進(jìn)行詞義辨析。 完形填空的命題特點(diǎn)之一就是利用詞匯辨析知識(shí)命題，而且占了整篇文章題目的絕大部分。首先要準(zhǔn)確把握詞匯的

29、意思和用法以及不同語境中的變化，仔細(xì)辨析相似、相近詞語的詞義，特別注意詞語的固定搭配以及詞匯的引申意義。如：（2012·課標(biāo)全國高考） It speaks__36__ than words. 36．A．straighter B．louder C．harder D．further 剖析：B　speak指說話的方式，根據(jù)第一句判斷此處說明身勢語的作用之大，所以應(yīng)選B項(xiàng)，表示“身勢語比語言更響亮；身勢語勝于言辭”。 4．體會(huì)文章的色彩，注意語言的和諧。 作者對(duì)完形填空文章賦予了一定的感情色彩。首先要理解作者說話的語氣和文章的感情色彩，這種語氣和色彩是和諧

30、一致的，而且貫穿全文的。做題時(shí)要充分體會(huì)上下文語言的和諧性，理解文章的深層含義。如：（2012·課標(biāo)全國高考） People from Latin American countries，__45__，touch each other quite a lot.Therefore，it's possible that in __46__，it may look like a Latino is __47__ a Norwegian all over the room.The Latino，trying to express friendship，will keep moving __48__.T

31、he Norwegian，very probably seeing this as pushiness，will keep __49__—which the Latino will in return regard as __50__. 45．A．in other words B．on the other hand C．in a similar way D．by all means 剖析：B　拉美人則是另一種情況，所以選B項(xiàng)，表示“另一方面”。 46．A．trouble B．conversation C．silence D．expe

32、riment 剖析：B　下面描述的是北歐人和拉美人交談的情況，所以選B項(xiàng)。 47．A．disturbing B．helping C．guiding D．following 剖析：D　由于拉美人習(xí)慣身體接觸，而北歐人卻不習(xí)慣，所以交談中不斷躲閃著，看起來就像拉美人在追逐北歐人一樣，因此選following。 48．A．closer B．faster C．in D．a(chǎn)way 剖析：A　拉美人想要通過身體接觸表示友誼，必然會(huì)不斷地向?qū)Ψ娇拷?，所以選closer。 49．A．stepping forward B．going on

33、 C．backing away D．coming out 剖析：C　拉美人想要靠近，北歐人則想要躲開，所以選C項(xiàng)表示“向后倒退”。 50．A．weakness B．carelessness C．friendliness D．coldness 剖析：D　北歐人的躲閃必然使拉美人誤以為“冷漠”或“不禮貌”，所以選D項(xiàng)。 5．把握文章脈絡(luò)，進(jìn)行推理判斷。 在完形填空題中常常要對(duì)文章的情節(jié)、作者的態(tài)度等進(jìn)行推理判斷。因此首先要抓住文章的脈絡(luò)，弄清楚文章的結(jié)構(gòu)及上下文的邏輯關(guān)系。只有這樣，才能加深對(duì)文章深層意義的理解，從而更好地完成“完形”的任務(wù)，恢復(fù)文

34、章的原貌。如：（2012·課標(biāo)全國高考） But whatever the situation，the best __54__ is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be __55__. 54．A．chance B．time C．result D．a(chǎn)dvice 剖析：D　下文的黃金法則顯然是一種“建議”，所以選advice。 55．A．noticed B．treated C．respected D．pleased 剖析：B　根據(jù)前面的treat可以推知，此

35、處應(yīng)用其被動(dòng)語態(tài)形式，所以選B項(xiàng)，表示“按照你想要被對(duì)待的方式對(duì)待別人”。 誤區(qū)警示 1．文章大意易錯(cuò)點(diǎn) （2011·山東高考）I can't recall any of the songs that the band played.I just remembered that I really enjoyed the show and didn't want it to __49__. 49．A．continue B．delay C．finish D．change 【錯(cuò)混透析】C　文章講述的是作者第一次聽現(xiàn)場音樂會(huì)的故事，當(dāng)時(shí)的演出給他留下了非常深刻的印

36、象，多年之后，作者雖然記不起當(dāng)時(shí)的歌曲，但是記得非常喜歡，所以不想演出“結(jié)束”。 【解題指導(dǎo)】做這類題時(shí)，考生易忽略文章大意。應(yīng)該在把握文章大意的基礎(chǔ)上，對(duì)文章進(jìn)行總體了解，避免做了后面的題目后才發(fā)現(xiàn)和前面的內(nèi)容沖突或矛盾。 2．情感態(tài)度易錯(cuò)點(diǎn) （2011·山東高考）However，at the last minute，one of the friends couldn't go，so my brother offered me the ticket.I was really __40__！ 40．A．relaxed B．embarrassed C．excited

37、 D．encouraged 【錯(cuò)混透析】C　relaxed“放松的”；embarrassed“尷尬的”；excited“興奮的”；encouraged“受到鼓舞的”。從當(dāng)時(shí)作者的心情判斷，得到票后應(yīng)該很“興奮”。 【解題指導(dǎo)】做這類題時(shí)，考生往往忽略作者的情感態(tài)度，錯(cuò)誤地理解文章意思。八歲的孩子能夠有機(jī)會(huì)與大哥哥們一起去看現(xiàn)場演出，當(dāng)然是很“興奮”，而不會(huì)是“放松”、“尷尬”或“受到鼓舞”。 3．上下文關(guān)系易錯(cuò)點(diǎn) （2011·山東高考）I remember the buzz（嘈雜聲）of excitement inside the theatre as we all found our

38、 seats.After a few minutes，the lights went down and everybody became quiet.I could barely make out the stage in the __43__.We waited. 43．A．silence B．noise C．darkness D．smoke 【錯(cuò)混透析】C　從很難辨認(rèn)出舞臺(tái)推斷，這是在“黑暗”中，所以看不清。 【解題指導(dǎo)】做這類題時(shí)，考生往往只拘泥于個(gè)別詞句的意思，忽略整篇文章的語境和上下文的聯(lián)系，從而造成失誤。在選擇答案時(shí)不要只注意選項(xiàng)所在的短語、句子或段落

39、，要善于從上下文中尋找相關(guān)的提示信息。 4．邏輯關(guān)系易錯(cuò)點(diǎn) （2011·山東高考）Then there was a roar from the crowd，like an explosion，as the first members of the band __44__ the stage.My brother leaned over and shouted something in my ear，but I couldn't __45__ what he was saying. 44．A．fell upon B．got through C．broke into D．

40、stepped onto 【錯(cuò)混透析】D　step onto“踏上，走上”；fall upon“（責(zé)任）落在……身上，襲擊”；get through“通過，做完”；break into“闖入”。 此處演員出場，當(dāng)然應(yīng)選D項(xiàng)表示“走上舞臺(tái)”。 45．A．forget B．hear C．repeat D．bear 【錯(cuò)混透析】B　由于觀眾在喊叫，所以盡管哥哥在我耳邊大聲喊叫，我還是無法“聽到”哥哥的話。 【解題指導(dǎo)】做這類題時(shí)，要合理理解文章的內(nèi)容，正確地把握邏輯關(guān)系。邏輯關(guān)系主要涉及原因、時(shí)間、條件、轉(zhuǎn)折等方面。只要我們弄明白文中的關(guān)鍵詞以及邏輯關(guān)系，就能確定比較明

41、確的、直接的答案。 5．基本常識(shí)易錯(cuò)點(diǎn) （2011·山東高考）When they discovered that Black Wednesday were going to perform at our local theatre，they all bought __38__ for the performance. 38．A．flowers B．drinks C．clothes D．tickets 【錯(cuò)混透析】D　根據(jù)常識(shí)以及下文可知應(yīng)選D項(xiàng)，去看演出當(dāng)然是買“票”，而不是買“花”、“飲料”或“衣服”。 （2011·山東高考）I remember the bu

42、zz（嘈雜聲）of excitement inside the theatre as we all found our __41__. 41．A．seats B．entrance C．spots D．space 【錯(cuò)混透析】A　seats“座位”；entrance“入口”；spots“地點(diǎn)；現(xiàn)場”；space“空白；空”。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，在劇場里面應(yīng)是找到“座位”，而不是找到“入口”、“地點(diǎn)”或“空間”。 【解題指導(dǎo)】做這類題時(shí)，我們應(yīng)該在了解短文主要意思的基礎(chǔ)上結(jié)合基本常識(shí)進(jìn)行解題。平時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)中，應(yīng)當(dāng)注意知識(shí)的積累，加強(qiáng)不同學(xué)科間的知識(shí)融合。多閱讀，多體會(huì)，注意中西文

43、化的差異，掌握一名合格的中學(xué)生應(yīng)具備的基本常識(shí)。 A （2012·安徽皖南八校聯(lián)考） My husband and I were cleaning windows together yesterday.We have the double-hung（雙吊鉤的）__1__ that you can pull forward and flip（翻轉(zhuǎn)）, allowing us to __2__ the inside and the outside surfaces.
