2019年高考英语冲刺押题系列(12)：完形填空

名师预测：
预测一体裁仍将以记叙文和夹叙夹议文为主。

文章长度基本稳定。

一般来说，完形填空材料的词数都在300～320之间，个别地区会超出这个范围。

预测二选材仍将具备新颖、时尚、贴近考生生活等特点。

在选材方面，完形填空还将集知识、文化、教育等于一体，内容符合高中学生的兴趣爱好及认知特点等，选用的都是考生所熟知的材料。

预测三试卷难度与2019年的难度相当。

从2018-2019年的完形填空题看，难度基本平稳。

因此2019年的完形填空在难度上应该不会增加，其难度将会与12年的难度相当。

选题理由：
纵观2019年全国19套英语高考试题，与往年一样，精彩纷呈，美不胜收。

所有试卷在选拔人才的功能上体现了公平公正和科学性，体现了对中国英语教与学的启发和指导作用。

研究近几年的完形填空，可以看出有以下特点：
1 、选材特点
（1）体裁以记叙文为主，说明文和议论文为辅。

短文有明确的主题，全文围绕这个主题展开，内容完整，结构严谨，层次分明，逻辑性强。

材料难度与高三教材相当。

（2）从题材方面来看，选材新颖、时尚，将知识、文化、教育融为一体，符合中学生的阅读兴趣。

题材广泛，反映了现代科学带来的新现象和新事物，反映了现代英语运用的特点,考生读起来熟悉、亲切、自然。

这样的材料具备现实生活真实性的特点，更能考查考生的语言综合运用的能力。

2、设空特点
设空密度在10-15个单词之间，首句一般不设空，被称为题眼。

首句常常开篇明义，点出文章的主题或提供重要的背景信息。

3 、强调语境，侧重辨析
语法不再是考查的重点，语境能力成为主要的考查对象。

所给的四个选项往往在语法方面都能成立，这就要求考生根据对语篇的整体理解来理顺思路，同时注意上下文的内在联系，瞻前顾后，通过语境做出选择。

考点主要集中在词语搭配、惯用法、句法以及语境理解等方面。

4、考查以实词为主，虚词为辅
这和完形填空重视语境有关。

在通常情况下，只有实词才能较好地突出词汇的语境化。

其中，实词（动词、名词、形容词和副词等）的词义辨析是重点考查内容。

5、备选答案干扰性强，区分度小
一般说来，试题四个备选答案中，有两个较容易排除，剩下的两个在意义上和用法上十分接近，干扰性强，迷惑性大，要在这两个选项中加以取舍，需考虑到词语意义和用法的细微差别
押题系列一记叙文分析
2019年高考完形填空题可知，记叙文是考查最多的一种文体。

2019年大多数地区考查的都是记叙文文体的
完形填空。

因此预测2019年高考完形填空仍将以记叙文类文章出现。

押题系列三议论文根据近三年的高考试题可知，议论文体裁很少考查。

相对来说，议论文也是最难的一种体裁，并且文章一般缺乏趣味性，所以完形填空题基本上不会选用议论文。

不过，议论文毕竟是一种常见的体裁，考生应该了解这种体裁的文章的特点及解题关键，并做适量的练习题。

【押题5】
Peers influence your life. you 1 each other.
Peers can have a 2 influence on each other. Maybe another 3 in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system, 4 someone on the soccer team taught you a cool trick with the ball. You might 5 a friend who is always a good sport and try to be more like him.Maybe you got others 6 about your new favorite book, and now everyon e’s 7 it.There are just some simple 8 of how peers positively influence each other.
Peers can 9 influence each other in negative ways.For example,a few kids in school might try to 10 you to cut class with them；your soccer friend might try to talk you into being mean to another player and never 11 him to the ball,or a kid in the neighbourhood might want you to 12 things from stores with him.Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be 13 ,to fit in,or because they worry that other kids might 14 them if they don’t go along with the group.Others go along because they want to 15 something new that others are doing .the idea that“everyone’s doing it”can influence some kids to leave their better 16 behind.
It is hard to be the 17 one who says “no”to peer pressure,but you can do it.Paying attention to your own feelings and 18 about what is right and wrong can help you know the 19 thing to do.Inner
strength and self-confidence can help you stand 20 and resist doing something bad.

押题系列四说明文
分析历年高考题可知，说明文是考查相对较少的一种文体。
