2012中考英语专项训练之完形填空
中考专题一完形填空一、解题步骤1．重视首句，把握开篇完形填空所给的文章，首句一般不设空，是一个完整的句子。
在记叙文中，首句往往给出故事的人物、时间、地点、起因等，可以由给出的这些信息设想出文章所展示的语境。
而在说明文、议论文中，首句往往给出的就是文章的主题句或是交待与主题相关的一些背景知识，这些知识限定了文章的主题范围，同学们在阅读时应有一个好的逻辑思维起点，抓住并理解主题句有助于把握全文大意，理顺思路，有利于顺利地理解和解题。
2．综观全文，把握大意“完形”须先”完义”。
准确理解全文是做好完形填空题的关键。
题中的大部分答案都须通过透彻理解文章内容和正确区分选项的词语意思来确定，只有少数答案是可以单纯地通过语法知识来确定的。
因此，在解题时不要一拿到题就一个空格一个空格地填入答案，而要认真仔细地把全文读一遍，了解整篇的大意，从文中的主线来建立解题的思路。
3、阅读思酌，精选试填在了解全文大意的基础上开始解题。
此时要再阅读原文，不要急于挑选答案，要注意四个选项的要求，区别空格中所缺的是什么语法成分，或是检查词义或词的搭配。
依靠自己掌握的英语语言知识，根据文章中的词义、语法、词的搭配或逻辑的需要来作出合理推断。
（1）剖析结构，对比推理在填空格时，有时可从剖析句子结构着手，分清句子的成分和句型，判断空格中所缺的词性、时态、语态和性质、数等的不同要求，然后再从选项里做出推理和决定。
（2）瞻前顾后，寻觅启示中考完形填空主要测试的是实词，又以动词、名词占据大多数。
近年来以考词语辨析和逻辑推理为主。
所以要做好本题答案，要反复阅读文章，瞻前顾后，善于从字里行间寻找内容上的逻辑关系，理清纹理脉络。
要结合上下句，了解相互间的关系。
形成整体观念，透彻地理解空格中所要求的词。
如果我们仅从个别句子本身考虑，在语法和意思上正确的答案可能有几个。
只有结合前后句子，分析判断，区别选择项，排除干扰项，才能选出正确答案或是最佳答案。
要善于抓关联词语，前后搭配。

But not for Gabriel Heredia.Gabrrel is a 21-year-old Argentinean barber（阿根廷理发师）who was born without hands. But he was able to grow up happy and independent because he always had the support of friends and family. In fact, his inspiration for such work was his mother, who is a hairdresser. At the age of 14, he began to take interest in her work and learned all kinds of hair cutting skills from her. Although he first saw it as an interest, Gabriel quickly decided that this was his dream job.Gabriel's family soon helped him open his first barbershop in San Isidro, Peru, which he worked at for one and a half years.

Social media plays an important role in our lives. We check our socialmedia accounts(账户) such as emails and Facebook almost every day. Lately, people like posting pictures just for th e purpose of getting others' attention through their “flowers”, no matter whether these pictures are good or not. Recently, I was very annoyed with these types of posts, so I decided to stop using social media for one week.After not using social media for a week, I can honestly say that everything has changed. Before last week, I used to check Facebook more than five times a day, as well as of my other social accounts, and I couldn't understand why I did that. Now I check Facebook much less.People are so obsess(迷恋的) with posting pictures that have no meaning to them just for the purpose of posting something online. Whenever I look at Instagram, all of the comments on pictures are the same. People depend on how many “likes” they get on what they pos t as an achievement. I just want to say, “None of it matters!” As I start to fully understand this now, I wonder why I have social media if all of this annoys me so much. But then I realize that I actually post meaningful things that my friends enjoy, and to me, that's more important than getting “likes” on a picture.Maybe as a society, we are using social media wrongly. I think we sometimes forget that social media helps us contact with people who are far away from us. I think it's a beautiful thing that I am able to go on Facebook and feel connected with people that I don't have the opportunity of seeing every single day anymore.（1）Why did the writer decide to stop using social media for one week?A. Because she had very few “flowers”.B. Because she had got tired of the posts on it.C. Because she didn't have any good pictures to post on.D. Because there was something wrong with her computer.（2）What do we know about the writer from Paragraph 2?A. She didn't know how to use Facebook.B. She didn't like posting things on Facebook.C. She used to check her social media accounts a lot.D. She has given up using social media forever.（3）According to the writer, people should use social media to ______.A. receive important commentsB. learn about other people's livesC. get “likes” from their “flowers”D. connect with faraway friends and family（4）What is the main idea of the passage?A. People should not use social media.B. Technology is changing our lives today.C. Comments on social media are interesting.D. Social media should be used for good purposes.【答案】（1）B（2）C（3）D（4）D【解析】【分析】本文讲述了作者厌烦社交网络从而一周不用社交网络，并有了一些感想。
