中考英语专题6：完形填空详解

专题六、完形填空
【知识盘点】
完形填空是一种要求高、综合性强的语言测试题，以阅读为形式，以上下文为线索，以理解能力、词汇知识、语法知识、习惯用法以及分析判断能力为解题基础，是一种较高层次的“阅读理解题”。

完形填空的考查范围
（1）词语辨析、基本句型、基础语法;
（2）固定搭配与习惯表达；
（3）阅读理解能力和逻辑推理、判断能力。

近年来，完形填空题单纯考语法的题目很少，越来越侧重对综合语言应用能力、阅读理解能力的考查。

其中，词汇运用能力的考查表现为要求考生在一定的语境下表达词汇的语义、词汇的搭配，特别关注上下文的行文逻辑和相互照应。

【命题规律】
综观近几年的中考题，其命题不外乎以下几种：
（1）上下文直接信息题。

这类题目只要根据上下文就可直接得出答案。

（2）词、句、文三结合理解题。

a. 利用逻辑关系。

（连词的使用）
b. 根据生活经历或生活常识
（3）词义辨析题。

（4）固定短语考查题。

【命题趋势】
近几年中考所选的文章题材广泛，体裁多样，文章内容新颖、有趣，可读性强、具有鲜明的时代感。

大多有10或15个小题，难度符合《新课程标准》的要求。

预计2011年的完形填空测试将朝着语言交际化，情景生活化，词汇运用灵活化的方向发展，语言运用与情景交际溶为一体。

【解题技巧】
完形填空的应对策略
1.平时应当选择体裁多样、题材丰富的材料进行阅读，以扩大知识面，增强应对各种信息的能力。

2.限时阅读，训练快速阅读能力。

3.侧重基础知识，培养获取语言知识的能力。

4.注重答题技巧，培养捕捉关键词的能力、分析推理能力、利用常识解题的能力、对行文逻辑、句子关联的把握能力。

完形填空的解题技巧
解题的总体思路为：整体－部分－整体。

51. B 通读全文，尤其后面的“不能挽救”和jump up以及掉下去就摔死，更能体现是太“深”了。

53. A 构成keep doing sth坚持；继续做某事。

54. B 最后；终于有一个听见了，而不是幸运地或突然地。

55. D 听到其他青蛙的话，即了解了事实，自然就“放弃”。

56. B 然而，没有听到的青蛙是“继续”努力。

57. A 上句说到它成功了，也就是从里面“出来”get out.
58. C 由上文的没听见也可以知道是它的“听力”hearing差。

59. D 考查词组teach sb a lesson“给某人以教训，给某人上了一课”。

60. D 和后面的discouraging相对应，所以这里是：鼓励的话语可以使人脱离困难。

63. A 结合上下文，做梦能预测未来只是一种标志或符号，并不是例子或图片。

64. A 做梦中的飞或什么的，只能具有特殊的意思，不会和实际相同或有什么伟大意义。

65. C 我们平常也说“解梦”，understand the dreams.
66. A 总结本段意思就是：做梦可以预测未来，也就是梦可以告诉我们对未来的恐怖与希望hopes.
67. B 通读全文，概括本段意思，科学家相信梦时候总要的，并非怀疑、担心或回答。

68. A 空后的and是并列连词，后面是大脑得到很多信息；前面是我们有很多的经历experiences.
69. C 这里解释了做梦就是大脑摒弃（throw away）了不重要的信息，保留了重要的。

70. D 我们的大脑是把重要信息储存在记忆力memories里面,才形成了梦。
