高考英语完形填空解题技巧专项训练
超实用高考英语复习:完形填空(15空)01:题型精讲及解题技巧
2023届新高考英语二轮复习攻破新题完型填空01:题型精讲及解题技巧【考情分析】(一)考纲解读完形填空是一种综合测试,涉及的知识面很广,是用来测试考生的阅读理解能力和综合应用语言的能力。
测试目的是考查大家对语篇语意的连贯性和运用语言的准确性,以及考查大家对上下文的精细理解和缜密的逻辑判断能力。
新高考I卷及近年的课标卷完形填空以记叙文为主,以夹叙夹议、说明文为辅。
主题语境包括人与自我、人与社会、人与自然。
考点设置以实词为主,其中对动词、名词以及形容词的考查数量最多。
题目把上下文语境理解放在第一位,词汇运用等放在第二位。
第一句不设空,短文设空平均间距为10至15词。
每小题所给的四个选项大多属于同一词类或同一范畴。
具体表现在以下几个方面:(1)词语辨析能力(2)语法结构分析能力(3)语篇理解能力(4)逻辑推理能力(5)文化背景透析能力(6)作者意图剖析能力(7)生活常识综合运用能力命题规律:(二)解题原则“先完意,后完形”。
(三)命题趋势1.未来高考完形填空可能会继续以记叙文为主。
文章选材传递“正能量”,对学生的人生观、价值观的树立会有指导作用。
2.所设选项更具有干扰性和迷惑性,直接根据语法和固定搭配就能选出答案的试题越来越少,设空与语境的联系更加密切。
(四)题型特点1、首句不设空:因为首句是文章的窗口,不设空有助于考生了解或推测全文的大意,2、选项特点:同一小题的四个选项必须是同一词类,且为同一语法形式。
3、设空方式:命题者主要从以下三种层面上设题。
①句子层面:在理解本句的基础上重要信息点可能在空格前,也可能在空格后。
②句组层面:考生需在理解空格所在句及其前一句或后一句之后才可选出正确答案。
③语篇层面:必须理解前后几句或上下段落,甚至整个篇章,才可选出正确答案。
4、题材:说明文或夹叙夹议的文章。
5、内容:完整,逻辑性强,语言结构严谨。
6、考察重点:多为实词,即名/代/动词/形容/副词等。
【夺分攻略】针对完形填空,我们要像侦探一样,利用未设空的已知线索,通过分析排查,找出与设空相关联的线索,再利用这些线索进行逻辑推理,从而最终得出正确答案。

完形填空School Counselors (辅导员) MatterOverwhelmed (压垮) by homework? Worried about a friend? Feel like you don't fit in? Sometimes it's impossible to 1 tough times alone. Problems can build up and you may suffer from insomnia (失眠), have difficulty concentrating, or even become depressed. It's time for you to talk to someone. Your school counselor can be a great place to start.A high school counselor who is a licensed professional offers a variety of 2 to high school students. He or she often provides advice and resources to students regarding their future college and 3 plans. A counselor may also help students who are 4 behavioral problems, family issues and stress. He or she often acts as a grief counselor to students in the event of an accident or other 5 situations. The job is quite demanding. 6 , high school counselors are often very knowledgeable about developmental and family psychology, and skilled at providing direct therapy for troubled individuals.Counselors meet with students individually or in small groups. Group meetings can really help people who are dealing with 7 issues. Not only do you get great ideas in a group setting, but it can also help to know that other students are experiencing the same thing and that they understand. How 8 you meet with your counselor depends on the issue. Some concerns are dealt with in a one-time meeting. Others require regular meetings for a while.School counselors are all about helping to make your school experience the best it can be. The role of the school counselor today is very 9 what it was like in the past. Instead of just focusing on schoolwork and careers, today's counselors are there for students in a broader way. They help students address almost any problem that might get in the way of learning, guide students to productive futures, and try to create a 10 environment for everyone at school.1.A.get off B.get through C.get in D.get to 2.A.services B.activities C.opportunities D.arguments 3.A.housing B.career C.training D.family 4.A.accustomed to B.sticking with C.committed to D.struggling with 5.A.unfamiliar B.unreasonable C.unforgettable D.unexpected 6.A.Otherwise B.However C.Therefore D.Rather7.A.difficult B.personal C.similar D.emergent 8.A.long B.soon C.much D.often 9.A.different from B.dependent on C.close to D.famous for 10.A.competitive B.positive C.social D.workingIt was 4 o'clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 11 in with severe burn on his face, neck and arms. We have called for a(n) 12 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 13 .The doctor described the 14 , which caused the burns. At 6 a.m., our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they 15 the charcoal(木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much petrol. The flames 16 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.17 , one of the boys was quick-minded, gasped my son, and 18 him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was in not enough 19 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars.After he 20 from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容) for 6 months 21 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.When I was a child, my mother told my sister who had a 10-inch very 22 scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not23 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”I 24 this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to 25 and returned to school with his head held high-glad he was alive. By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not 26 , so he made the 27 to give up any plastic surgery.We all have “scars” that we believe 28 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better. But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judgingyourself by these same 29 standards.

If I want something, I 31 for it; I refuse to give up 32 I succeed. Over the years this attitude has worked well for me and helped me achieve my goals. For example, when I wanted to be on the dance team at school, I learned all the dances and practiced until I could hardly 33 . And when I wanted money for a new computer, I washed cars, babysat, and walked dogs for all my neighbors.34 this year everything changed. I had set my sights on a summer 35 that I wasdetermined to get at the Water Zone, because the employees there could go on the water rides after their work and get free food at the snack bar. It was the 36 job to have on hot summer vacations. So just as I had achieved every goal in the past, I set out to 37 the job. I completed the application in my neatest handwriting, carefully prepared for my interview, and gathered a pack of 38 letters. I was certain that nothing could keep me from my dream job.But after my 39 , the manager of the Water Zone told me that he could hire only those with experience in water safety. I was 40 . I felt like a failure.On the last weekend before school ended, my teacher, Mrs. Keller, asked me 41 I would be interested in the kids’ summer day camp. I decided that I had nothing to 42 , so I called the manager and 43 an interview. She was 44 by my babysitting experience and employed me. In less than a week, I had completely 45 about wanting to work at the water park. Each time I comforted a little boy who missed his mother or a little girl who needed to help tying her shoes, I felt I was doing something 46 . I realized that I had discovered my life’s 47 : to work with children. I now have a new goal. I’m going to study to become an elementary school teacher.Sometimes in life we don’t get 48 what we want. Our dream guy or girl may not be interested in us. The coach may not select us for the team. A certain employer may not choose to hire us. It’s natural to feel 49 ; I sure did. But I also learned an important lesson. Occasionally, when we don’t get what we want, something even 50 is waiting for us around the corner!31.A.go B.apply C.cheer D.wait 32.A.when B.until C.since D.once 33.A.smile B.speak C.think D.move 34.A.Otherwise B.So C.But D.Therefore 35.A.day B.course C.job D.camp 36.A.perfect B.tough C.regular D.potential 37.A.land B.quit C.change D.keep 38.A.instruction B.application C.recommendation D.invitation 39.A.practice B.interview C.expectation D.experiment 40.A.promoted B.punished C.selected D.refusedthemselves to their task, and surrender to the journey.51.A.thoughts B.balance C.hands D.position 52.A.blamed B.interrupted C.frightened D.moved 53.A.found B.cheered C.dropped D.taught 54.A.abandoning B.raising C.shaking D.hiding 55.A.pride B.trust C.love D.fear 56.A.plan B.promise C.mistake D.difference 57.A.corrected B.repeated C.described D.discovered 58.A.driving B.fixing C.riding D.covering 59.A.slowly B.secretly C.helplessly D.frequently 60.A.heard B.shared C.wrote D.read 61.A.problems B.costs C.efforts D.choices 62.A.depending on B.replying to C.worrying about D.meeting with 63.A.money B.food C.time D.room 64.A.equipped B.supplied C.decorated D.filled65.A.set off B.broke down C.headed for D.held on 66.A.rest B.help C.understanding D.practice 67.A.volunteers B.members C.tourists D.reporters 68.A.purpose B.question C.decision D.lesson 69.A.introduced B.expected C.experienced D.examined 70.A.turn B.limit C.compare D.devoteThe structure in organizations has changed. It has transformed from a boss to a leader being at the top and from method directing to cooperation, 71 how many of us have actually made this 72 within ourselves?Let's not get personal about any person or connect this to any 73 organization. Consider the 74 pattern on a social media website such as LinkedIn. We often see good articles written by junior-level employees which 75 new enthusiasm and new perspectives, but how many senior-level 76 go and "Like" the article? Not 77 read it, but actually "Like” it. More often than not, the answer is none. Leaders read such articles, but they 78to press the "Like" button due to some fear!A friend of mine, who holds the 79 of Director of Human Resources in a reputed organization, happened to mention an article that his team member had written. I casually enquired 80 the absence of a "Like" or comment from him. His answer really 81 me! He said: "You know what my 82 is? I cannot be commenting or liking his article in public!" Amazed by this behavior, I did my research on this pattern on a few social media platforms. Yes, people want to “Like" or comment on articles and photos that are published by people with a(n)83 level and do so as well.While we are 84 the "Like" button on a junior-level employee's one — year anniversary, we jump to be one in a few hundreds to offer 85 on a senior-level leader's one — year completion. However, I think our precious “Like" for the employee 86 a lot and encourages him, while, on the other hand, it is 87 many hundreds and is not 88 noticed by the leader.Encourage new talents and 89 them. If we do not exhibit this socially, I am sure we will not 90 it in our job either.71.A.so B.otherwise C.yet D.while 72.A.organization B.method C.cooperation D.transformation 73.A.unusual B.ordinary C.common D.particular 74.A.behavioral B.online C.popular D.personal 75.A.oppose B.contain C.promote D.lack 76.A.leaders B.writers C.employers D.readers 77.A.precisely B.barely C.merely D.thoroughly 78.A.stop B.hope C.hesitate D.regret 79.A.name B.title C.faith D.honor80.A.for lack of B.on account of C.in need of D.with regard to 81.A.confused B.astonished C.dissatisfied D.annoyed 82.A.team B.level C.habit D.reputation 83.A.superior B.different C.average D.junior 84.A.pressing B.missing C.skipping D.considering 85.A.congratulations B.suggestions C.opinions D.remarks96.A.strong B.clever C.weak D.thick 97.A.small B.heavy C.full D.cheap 98.A.stood up B.went away C.gave up D.worked out 99.A.sad B.delighted C.annoyed D.excited 100.A.mind B.hope C.face D.weight 101.A.kept B.threw C.held D.caught 102.A.walking B.offering C.turning D.calling 103.A.stopped B.left C.removed D.arrived 104.A.rapidly B.silently C.suddenly D.carefully 105.A.jump B.climb C.enter D.run 106.A.build B.achieve C.complete D.search 107.A.slowly B.hardly C.easily D.successfully 108.A.success B.surprise C.tears D.anger 109.A.received B.saved C.contributed D.started 110.A.talked B.spoke C.wrote D.rememberedPam Bales,an experienced hiker,stepped onto snow-covered Jewell Trail. The hike up the lower part of Jewell was 111 . But less than an hour later,the weather was showing its teeth. Bales began to think about calling it a day. Then she noticed something: a single set of 112 in the snow ahead of her. She'd been 113 unclear tracks all day and hadn't given them much 114 ,because so many people climb Jewell Trail. But these,as a volunteer of the Valley Search and Rescue Team,she115 ,had been made by a pair of sneakers,which was surely not for this kind of trail. Strong wind screamed,and 116 was just hours away. If Bales continued to follow the tracks,she'd add 117 to the journey. But the tracks ahead meant someone might be in 118 She could not let this go. She silently scolded the absent hiker for 119 normal safety rules and struggled to walk carefully in the direction of the 120 .After about tracks to 30 yards,she rounded a corner and saw a man sitting motionless. He wore tennis sneakers and a light jacket. She checked him for any sign of 121 . There was none. Bales had been trained in search and rescue and knew that he was hypothermic (体温过低的)and would 122 soon if he didn't get out of there. The man said he had lost his way and was extremely 123 . Bales brought a pair of soft-shell pants,a winter hat,and a jacket from her pack. She helped the man 124 the warm,dry layers onto his body and offered him some hot cocoa. 125 he stood. She offered continuous encouragement—“ Keep going! You're doing great." Just before 6 p. m.,they arrived at the trailhead very 126 . Her climb up to the spot where she 127 the man had taken about four hours. Two hours had passed since then.A week later,the president of Bales' rescue group received a letter in the mail. It read:“ On Sunday October! 17,1 went up my trail,Jewell. 128 was to be bad. But without thinking too much I was dressed to go quickly. Next thing I knew this lady was talking to me,changing my clothes,making me warmer. She just kept 129 me. Finally,I learned her name was Pam. The entire time she treated me with compassion (同情心),confidence,and one hundred percent commitment..."In the nine years since she saved John,Bales has become something of a hiking legend (传奇人物).

This year, however, her parents announced a new 131 no phones allowed for the entire week. “No distractions,” they said. “But my friends will be 132 updates,” Madeline protested. “They’ll have to 133 ,” her mom said. “What if something bad happens?” Madeline changed her 134 Her mom shook her head as she opened a drawer. Madeline saw that her parents’ phones were already in it. Madeline had to 135 her phone in, too. The drive to the beach house took most of the day. That night after dinner, Madeline wandered into the kitchen, where her father was 136 dishes. “Still hungry?” he asked. “No,” she answered. Then she gave him a 137 look and said in her sweetest voice, “Couldn’t I have my phone back? Just so I can tell everyone what a(n) 138 time I’m having?” “Can’t,” he said. “It’s not here. Remember? 139 out the bookcase in the living room,” he suggested. “Might find something you like.” She walked into the living room and spotted a jigsaw puzzle (拼图玩具) on the bookcase. She took it, put the pieces on the table, and began to 140 them. After what seemed like minutes, she looked up. It was past ten o'clock. She had been 141 for almost two hours! The puzzle was less than half done. It would have been nice to 142 a picture of the puzzle with her friends, she thought. The next morning, a golden sun was rising over the blue ocean. The sky was cloudless. The scene 143 Madeline of a photo that Brandi had shared. Her friends had oohed and ahhed over it. This view was even better. It would leave everyone 144 Madeline’s hand 145 to the bedside table, but there was nothing there.That evening, Madeline lost herself in the jigsaw puzzle again. She felt a little excited every time the shapes 146 . Soon, all that were left were a few gaps. She quickly put the remaining pieces into place. The puzzle was 147 .She stepped back to 148 the finished puzzle. The picture showed an old painting ofseveral farmhands working in a brown field and there was a giant rainbow arching across the sky.Madeline enjoyed the puzzle for a few minutes, trying to 149 the image in her mind.

She walked in front of her husband and carefully checked the safety of the track when they were going down a steep slope (陡坡). Suddenly she heard a cracking sound from 153 .“When I realized what was happening, I was 154 to a deep ditch (沟壑), my pack on my back.” Colleen’s fall was only 155 by the presence of a branch that stretched across the ditch and 156 her from a fall that could otherwise have been deadly.Colleen hit her head badly and went into 157 .

I had gone up and down the tower when, outside the door at the foot, a blind man came toward me. In a moment, he disappeared up the stairs. I looked at the sign that said “To the Tower”, and decided to follow him.I caught up with him in the ticket office. There I was ___31___ to see the attendant(工作人员)selling him a ticket as if he were any other visitor.

When he got to the balcony(阳台), I was a dozen steps behind. As I reached it, I saw him at the corner of the tower.At last, after ten minutes, I ___37___ him. “Excuse me,” I said as politely as I could, “but I am curious to know why you came up.”He smiled. “Coming up the stairs, you will notice how not just light but sun ___38___ intothe tower through the narrow windows here and there, so that you can feel the ___39___—the cool stairs suddenly become quite warm—and how up here behind the wall there is shade, but as soon as going opposite a window you can find the sun.

高考英语完形填空专项训练(含答案)
高考英语完形填空解题思路与训练一、高考英语完形填空命题与解题思路完形填空题是高考英语卷中的重要题型,不仅侧重于考查学生的逻辑思维能力和对具体语境把握能力,更是对学生整体语篇意义理解的连贯性和运用语言的准确性考查.它属于有一定难度的障碍性阅读理解题,是学生感到最难把握的题型之一。
分析近几年高考题,完形填空所选短文的体裁多为记叙文、说明文和议论文。
写人或记事,兼有个别议论的句子.趣味性强并兼有教育意义。
一般为400单词左右的一篇短文,其内容逻辑性强,文章结构严谨,层次分明.文章首句不设空,但交待相关的背景材料,可挖掘的信息点很多,对整篇文章的理解起着至关重要的作用。
近几年试题中尤为注重说明文和议论文。
说明文命题趋势:说明型完形填空选材难度一般低于试卷中的阅读理解大题。
在设空与选项设计方面充分体现了语言知识运用题的要求:以实词为主(名、动、形、副),绝大多数小题都要从全文角度进行判断。
这一命题思路体现了“语篇意识"。
议论文命题趋势:议论文是一种通过剖析事物,论述事理,提出主张,发表见解的文体.议论型完形填空分为两种,一种是夹叙夹议型完形填空;另一种是纯议论型完形填空.第一种的基本模式是:叙述事件,提出感悟,作出结论。
第二种的基本模式是:提出论点,列举论据,提出看法.那么如何做好完形填空呢?解题思路一:通读全文,了解大意,先易后难。
通常在答题之前,要花1-2分钟把文章略读一遍,以便对文章有个大概的了解.在详读的过程中,可以边读边选择一些容易的选项,对个别不理解的单词、短语,可以先不管它们。
等读完文章后,大部分的空格已填完, 全文的意思基本已掌握, 剩下的难题也就比较容易解决了。
解题思路二:依据首句线索,紧扣主题选择。
首句通常是文章的主题句,通常不设空,便于考生对短文主题、内容或背景有个大概了解。
它的目的是向考生提供时间、地点、人物、事件、论点等有用的信息.把握了主题句,对于理解全文和解题很有帮助.例: On a hot summer day in last August, I sought shade and a cool drink at a waterfront caféon a Greek island。

As a result, more than 70,000 houses were____66____, including the home of Sarah Feldman and her family.At the time, they were in Connecticut on vacation, so they didn’t know what kind of____67____ they were going to face when they got home to Texas. But then Feldman’s grandparents called with ____68____ news: all of her books had been destroyed in the flooding. Feldman was 14 at the time and loved ____69____.To cheer her up, Feldman’s father ____70____ her to the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University. When they arrived, she met Bill Carver, an elderly____71____.“I asked him a bunch of questions like, ‘How do you ____72____ all these rare books in the library? What’s the oldest book you have?’” Feldman remembers.Carver ____73____ answered all of Feldman’s questions. When she told him about her booksbeing ____74____, he told her that he would send her a book in the mail, so she could_____75_____ her collection. After returning to Houston, she _____76_____ his gift, titled “The Medieval(中世纪的) Book” by Barbara A.Shailor.Feldman is in her 30s now. But Carver’s _____77_____ has made a lifelong impact. Feldman has tried to _____78_____ Carver, with no success. “I actually sent the library a _____79_____ during the pandemic(大流行病), but I never heard back,” she said. “I’m not sure if he’s_____80_____ still, but I just would love to tell Bill Carver that he changed my life.”66.A.flooded B.burnt C.removed D.buried 67.A.challenge B.damage C.pressure D.danger 68.A.false B.local C.bad D.daily 69.A.traveling B.reading C.chatting D.playing 70.A.took B.invited C.led D.rushed 71.A.artist B.professor C.writer D.librarian 72.A.buy B.keep C.pack D.gather 73.A.quickly B.loudly C.patiently D.secretly 74.A.disturbed B.stolen C.destroyed D.torn75.A.own B.expand C.enrich D.restart 76.A.received B.opened C.returned D.lost 77.A.donation B.present C.suggestion D.lecture 78.A.show mercy to B.turn to C.take care of D.look for 79.A.photo B.painting C.letter D.check 80.A.easy-going B.considerate C.warm-hearted D.aliveIn a letter he wrote in 1884, Mark Twain complained that “Telephones, telegraphs and words are too slow for this age; we must get something that is faster.” “We should communicate by thought only, and say in a couple of minutes what should have ballooned into ____81____ in an hour and a half,” said him.Despite the progress the previous century brought for our understanding of both language and the brain, we are no closer to telepathy(心灵感应), communication from one mind to another by ____82____ means, than we were in Twain’s time. The reason is that the telepathy we’ve beenpromised, the sort imagined by Twain, and ____83____ in countless movies and TV shows, is, for the time being, groundless.“Good old-fashioned telepathy” (GOFT) involves a direct transfer of ____84____ from one mind to another. It has fascinated people for good reasons. It removes the ____85____ of language. With GOFT, we no longer need to put each concept into words or to ____86____ someone’s language. You know instantly what one means as the former channel of communication, language, is not at all necessary. The ____87____ of language is the central feature of GOFT. It is what enables science-fiction writers to imagine humans and aliens from other planets communicating telepathically despite not sharing a language. But can it really come true with current science and technology?Besides, GOFT promises genuine communication. However, ____88____ is universal. We all have experiences of saying one thing, only to be understood as saying something else. Because language is so flexible, it is also easy to lie or ____89____ oneself.We aren’t even certain if Bob’s expression could be in line with what he believes in a year’s time.These weaknesses have driven people to look for alternatives and finally inspired inventions of artificial languages trying to remove misunderstanding. Of course, one day when technology allows, a direct thought-to-thought transfer seems the ____90____ solution.Many of us have the confidence that we can think faster than we can speak or write. Having to rely ____91____ on language to communicate, however, is depressing. Therefore, the____92____ of adding new direct brain-to-brain communication channels is exciting. By channels of this kind, our brains can be “____93____ ” and allowed to be committed to other ____94____ practices instead of conveying messages.New brain-to-brain channels have the potential to increase ____95____, turning us into super-actors, handling so many tasks in a short period of time as we cannot yet imagine.81.A.words B.gestures C.actions D.costs 82.A.extra-genetic B.extra-familial C.extra-sensory D.extra-legal 83.A.sacrificed B.popularized C.enclosed D.balanced 84.A.strength B.intelligence C.thoughts D.structures 85.A.limitations B.expenses C.command D.evolution86.A.replace B.update C.decode D.imitate 87.A.avoidance B.discrimination C.employment D.expansion 88.A.reluctance B.privacy C.fear D.misinterpretation 89.A.contradict B.indicate C.delay D.justify 90.A.multiple B.invisible C.ultimate D.equivalent 91.A.roughly B.casually C.entirely D.willingly 92.A.distraction B.prospect C.origin D.regulation 93.A.fed up B.set up C.cut off D.let loose 94.A.profitable B.meaningful C.steady D.typical 95.A.charm B.recognition C.efficiency D.enduranceEric is one of the top salesmen in his company.

The kids in our ____111____ called me “The American Lady.” One day, as I was ____112____ outside in the small garden, two little boys ran up to my gate, “Lady, lady, blah blah blah.” That’s what I understood, but their gesture made me want to find out what was so ____113____. I walked down the street with them.At the corner, I ___114___ a pile of garbage with a small dog on top. The poor little animal smelled ____115____. I didn’t know how long she’d been there, but I ____116____ she needed water.I ran home to get water and a little food, Ted asked what was up, and I ____117____ what I had found. He returned with me, carrying a cat cage. I put down the water and a small cup with the food. The puppy looked at the food but didn’t make any effort to eat or drink. Ted said we needed to get her to the ____118____ as soon as possible. We put the puppy into the cage and____119____ set out. As we were shown into the exam room, I took her out of the_____120_____ and put her on the metal table. The puppy looked up at me and then, with all her _____121_____, pulled herself over to me and _____122_____ her head on my stomach. That was it. This was my puppy.What _____123_____ me was the puppy was probably four months old, and we were in our late seventies. I don’t think old people should adopt young animals. I had seen too many cases oftrying to find homes if the owners _____124_____, but all that reasoning flew out of the window when that puppy laid her head on my stomach.

I’d watch as he put his personal items away, among which was a jade green comb. Every night, he would smile, ____126____ me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?” I was ____127____ happy to do it. At the age of five, this kind of task brought me such joy. I would____128____ turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used ____129____ as hard as I could. ____130____ that I’d done a good job, I would proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me, and ____131____ the comb on top of his wallet.About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started primary school. That was ____132____ things started to change. Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and our ____133____ life started getting shaky. He didn’t come home as much as he used to. And when he did come home, it was always late and I would already be in bed. I started to get____134____. Why didn’t he _____135_____ his old job? Why did he take the _____136_____ and place the whole family in trouble? Over the years, I stopped waiting for him to come home, stopped going downstairs to _____137_____ him. And I rarely talked to him.Now 28, I’ve graduated from college and got a job. Dad’s business has also started to get back _____138_____.

An elderly woman walked into the store with a younger woman who I____146____ was her daughter. The daughter was displaying a serious case of ____147____ checking her watch every few seconds. The older woman began to ____148____ the DVDs on the nearest shelf. After ____149____ hesitation, I walked over and asked if I could help. The woman smiled and showed me a title on a crumpled (皱巴巴的) piece of paper. Obviously a person looking for it knew a little about ____150____.Rather than rushing off to ____151____ the DVD for the woman, I asked her to walk with me so I could show her where she could find it. Something about her deliberate movements____152____ me of my own mother, who had passed away the previous Christmas. The woman seemed ____153____ for the unrushed company and casual conversation. We found the movie, and I ____154____ her to the queue at the cash register. When the older woman was paying in cash, I walked over to the younger, who was still tapping her foot at the front of the store.“Is that your mom?” She rolled her eyes and said, “Yeah.” There was ____155____ in her reply, half sigh and half complaint.

He also told me that I’d be ____162____ to climb the mountain without a ____163____. “You’ll be on the steep (陡峭的) service road before you ____164____ the rainforest on an unmarked track to have any chance of finding the tagimoucia. There’s thick ____165____ and it’s always raining,” he said. “At best, you don’t find the ____166____. At worst, you get completely ____167____.”I asked Vagoni ____168____ this worst case had happened before. “____169____!” he said. “Just two weeks ago, a group of seven locals went up without a guide and got lost in the cloud. There was a search-and-rescue mission. What a _____170_____!”Soon, we set out up the service road with a guide. I’d hiked Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, and made it _____171_____ the Everest Base Camp. _____172_____, I quickly discovered that Taveuni’s extreme humidity and the trail’s steepness make the climbing astonishingly _____173_____. I needed to stop to rest every 10 minutes.An hour later, we were in the forest, ducking under fallen trees and climbing over other obstacles. Suddenly, the guide pointed up with _____174_____. “Look! The tagimoucia!” he shouted.

The song played on and on, whether you were loading the dishwasher, weaving in and out of traffic, or attempting to ____176____ your mind at the start of yoga class.Having a song stuck in one’s head, known as an earworm, is an experience that over 90% of us have on a ____177____ basis. We’re more likely to catch an earworm after we stop focusing, in moments when the working memory is ____178____, when we’re relaxed, when work is finished or when we’re a bit sleepy.Certain songs are ____179____ than others, and so more likely to “auto repeat” in your head. There are certain musical characteristics that make songs more likely to become earworms, such as if the piece is repetitive, if there is a longer duration of certain notes, if ____180____ between the notes are smaller. ____181____, we know that mood can have an impact, with some people reporting that they always get the same earworm when they feel good, or people experiencing a fast-tempo earworm when they are ____182____. And of course familiarity with a song is a key ____183____. Songs that you don’t know very well are less likely to pop up as earworms.If you’ve had enough of your earworm and need to stop it in its tracks, you would be well warned not to try to block the song out, but rather to ____184____ accept it. A determined effort to block the song out may result in the very _____185_____ of what you want. According topsychologist Daniel Wegner, _____186_____ the song may make your brain keep playing it over and over again. To get rid of an earworm, you may be best served by simply _____187_____ it, accepting it, and leaving it alone to let this phenomenon ends up weakening itself little by little.Some people try to _____188_____ themselves from the song, and it works. You can try reading a book, listening to a different song or even playing an instrument. Others _____189_____ the tune in question, because it is commonly believed that earworms occur when you remember only part of a song; hearing the entire song may stop it. Neurologists (神经学家) point out that it’s recommendable to chew gum to reduce the _____190_____ of an earworm because jaw movement interferes with musical memory. However, it’s important to note that this phenomenon usually lasts less than 24 hours.176.A.burden B.clear C.alter D.exploit 177.A.trial B.solid C.voluntary D.regular 178.A.inactive B.complicated C.dynamic D.uncertain 179.A.catchier B.slower C.harsher D.louder 180.A.phases B.intervals C.rhythms D.sessions 181.A.Instead B.Therefore C.Otherwise D.Additionally 182.A.alert B.pleased C.remote D.rigid 183.A.criterion B.consequence C.concept D.contributor 184.A.readily B.constantly C.passively D.critically 185.A.opposite B.fantasy C.emphasised D.equivalent 186.A.integrating B.converting C.resisting D.tolerating 187.A.interrupting B.acknowledging C.stimulating D.facilitating 188.A.perceive B.isolate C.distract D.identify 189.A.seek out B.act out C.cast out D.knock out 190.A.proportion B.intensity C.integrity D.preference“Challenge-based learning is often focused on the challenges that have global impact.

It also makes room for new ways of thinking. Yes, de-cluttering can ____74____ all areas of our lives.I wish you the courage to abandon the parts of your life that no longer ____75____ you and make space for fresh energy to flow.61.A.advantage B.addiction C.excuse D.habit 62.A.eventually B.gradually C.regularly D.willingly 63.A.expensive B.useful C.comfortable D.colorful 64.A.come about B.hung on C.showed up D.broke down 65.A.hide B.join C.live D.stay 66.A.turned up B.ended up C.stood out D.died out 67.A.trip B.change C.choice D.situation 68.A.possible B.hopeful C.welcome D.unbelievable 69.A.vital B.strange C.necessary D.clear 70.A.school B.wardrobe C.store D.church 71.A.fill B.empty C.search D.exchange 72.A.papers B.thoughts C.clothes D.records 73.A.value B.time C.chance D.space 74.A.apply to B.benefit from C.result in D.take up 75.A.delight B.include C.love D.serve When I was in college, my grandpa was diagnosed with cancer.

完形填空解题技巧及练习
高考完形填空专项训练步步高抓好三方面●跨好三大步●做好三结合------谈完形填空解题技巧中学生在做完形填空题时存在的问题,概括起来有以下三方面:1.不善于抓文章的主旨大意,并以此为中心展开对整篇文章的推理、判断,导致理解上出现偏差,甚至和文章的中心相悻。
2.容易受定势思维的影响,对文意分析不透,忽视特定语境中知识的运用。
3.对完形填空题怀有厌倦、畏惧心理,以至做题时处于应付状态,做题能力得不到提高。
那么,怎样才能提高做完形填空题的能力呢?我们应从以下三方面入手训练思维能力和解题技巧:抓准主旨、透析文意、理清逻辑。
并在做题过程中把这三方面与做完形填空的三大步骤“通读、精读、复读”有机结合,明确每步的思维主攻方向。
即抓好三方面,跨好三大步,做好三结合。
一、通读短文抓主旨一般情况下,完形填空短文都不给标题,不容易把握文章的主题和大意。
但短文首句通常不设空格,这就为我们窥视文章全貌提供了一个窗口,而尾句往往是文章的总结、结论或点睛之笔,所以抓住开篇启示作用的首句和总结概括性的尾句是必要的。
借助于首尾句给予的启示,克服不良心理的影响,满怀信心,全神贯注,目光越过空格,注意能体现文章大意的关键词句,尽力从整体上理解短文大意,这是逐空填词的重要依据和基础。
如果一开始就忙于见空填空,势必无法从整体上把握全文概要,无法形成连贯的思路,只见树木不见森林,理解偏离文章的中心,造成顾,此失彼的错误,甚至影响做题速度。
抓住了文章的主旨大意后,我们围绕主旨大意去阅读、预测、推理、判断,往往会收到事半功倍的效果。
尤其是一些干扰性强,容易使人犯想当然错误的选项就会迎刃而解。
二、精读短文析文意在基本抓住文章的主旨后,应逐句精读短文,逐题分析选项,对特定的语境做深人的理解,克服“定势思维”,根据全文大意和词不离句,句不离文的原则,逐项填空。
切不可以单纯的词汇辨析或语法角度去做题,而应以能否恰如其分地表达文意作为选择最佳答案的唯一标准。

高考英语完形填空解题技巧专项训练-CAL-FENGHAI-(2020YEAR-YICAI)_JINGBIAN高考完形填空解题技巧 (I)完形填空是全国各地高考英语必考题型之一,占20分。
题型特征是:一篇短文中间留20 个空格,每个空格给出4个选项,要求从中选出最佳答案填入相应的空格内。
由于这种题型既考查学生的语法、词法、句法、习惯用法等英语基础知识的综合运用能力,又考查他们对短文的阅读和理解能力。
这种题型综合性较强,因而难度较大。
总的来说,完形填空为了测试考生实际应用英语的能力和语感。
具体说来,是从语篇角度综合测试考生的阅读理解能力、词汇的掌握和对英语习惯用语的熟悉程度、以及语法规则的灵活运用。
因此,本文我就考试出题的三个方向、考试题型和具体解题技巧做了详细阐述:一、考试出题的大致方向是:1、词汇:某些词义的识别,同义词辨析。
英语习惯用法的熟悉程度。
2、语法结构:语法规则的实际应用。
3、语篇句意:从语篇角度,即上下文和情景语境综合测试考生的阅读理解能力4. 逻辑推理和生活常识二、考试题型:(一)词汇题:单纯地考单词或短语的释义:1.There can be no question about the value of a safety program. From a financial standpoint alone, safety ____. (‘99)A. comes offB. turns upC. pays offD. holds up答案:C.词汇辨析题:主要是指同义词、近义词的辨析,这类题较难。
2.They are needed for ____ food into energy and body maintenance. (‘96)A. shiftingB. transferringC. alteringD. transforming答案:D.固定短语搭配题:3.With it, astronauts will acquire a workhouse vehicle ____ of flyingsintosspace and returning many times. (‘92)A. capableB. suitableC. efficientD. fit答案:A.(二)语法题:语法结构题,主要是考结构词:代词、介词和从句连接词。
4.Moreover, inaccurate or indefinite words may make ____ difficult for the listener to understand the message which is being transmitted to him. (’94)A. thatB. itC. soD. this答案:B.(三)语篇题:文章的上下文决定所缺处所选择的词.这一考点要求学生根据文章的整体内容进行理解,根据层次结构和内容的逻辑关系,去选择符合文章情节的答案,这也叫情景意义的选择.5.Getting enough vitamins is essential to life, although the body has no nutritional use for excess vitamins. Many people ____ believe in being on the "safe side" and thus take extra vitamins. (96)A. neverthelessB. thereforeC. moreoverD. meanwhile答案:A.三、解题技巧要做好完形填空题,除了要具备较扎实的英语基本功之外,还必须具备良好的应试心态,掌握一定的答题技巧,这样有助于在做题时思路清晰,速度加快,节约时间,增进效益.1..充满信心,沉着冷静。
无论做什么事情,信心十分重要。
有的同学尽管英语基础不错,但由于平时做练习时有“偏食”的习惯,即喜欢做基础题,怕做综合性较强的能力题(如完形填空、阅读理解等),因而在考试中遇到这类题目时就会感到压力大,信心不足。
同学们在做完形填空题时一定要充满信心,沉着冷静,要相信自己的实力。
只有这样,答题时才能发挥出自己的最佳水平,减少失误。
2、精读第一句它是了解全文大意的基石.完形填空文章的第一句话通常是没有空白的完整句子,而且第一句往往是文章的主题句(Topic Sentence),或是含有主题词的句子,考生可以根据它来把握文章的中心思想,为下面答题奠定基础。
这里,首先我们要知道英文的主题句的特点。
一个有效的主题句应该有以下两个标准:1.Topic:主题或议题。
明确指示段落的内容,起到限定主题范围的作用。
2.Opinion:反映作者对待主题的观点、印象、态度,起到限定段落基调的作用。
知道了英文主题句的特点之后,我们在阅读完型填空文章的第一句话时,就不应该只是读懂其字面中文意思,而是要透过首句来预测文章的中心内容,为接下来做题把准方向。
比如1994年考题的首句是:The first and smallest unit that can be discussed in relation to language is the word.这就是一句非常有效的主题句。
据此,我们可以大胆地预测文章的主题是讨论"词汇(word)"与"语言表达(language)"的关系。
作者的态度通过"first and smallest"就说明作者认为"词汇"对于"语言"的重要意义。
实际上,该篇文章的确是围绕"词汇"与"语言"的关系展开的。
由此可见,精读第一句对于理解和把握整个文章的中心意义和作者的行文的脉络是非常有效的。
这就为我们往下做题指明了方向!3.通读全文,掌握大意,粗选答案有相当一部分同学在没有通读全文、弄懂大意的情况下就急忙边阅读边依空选择。
这是一种不良的答题习惯。
而且那些错误的答案会在大脑中先入为主,在复查时很难发现,同学们在做题之前必须先集中精力将短文精读两遍,掌握其大意,同时要记住短文里的人物、时间或地点,尤其要注意首句和尾句的含义。
这样,答题时才能心中有数。
此时可以边阅读边粗选答案,这是为了尽量减少空格,帮助更透彻地了解全文.4、从上下文寻找信息词完形填空所选的文章都是具有逻辑关系、意义相联的语篇,而词语的重复出现、同义词和反义词的使用是重要的连句成篇的词汇纽带,因此,在行文中不可避免地会出现词语的复现、前后同义词、反义词相互照应等现象。
警示:考生在答题时,不要急于求成。
而要充分利用上下文信息词,在继续阅读中寻找和斟酌答案。
充分利用文章的上下文和前后句,找到对选择有提示作用的词或句。
这些词有时可能是同义词或反义词。
例如:1)Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in some places it is very very _.A. deepB. highC. coldD. dangerous根据转折连词but的提示,所填入的词应与shallow相反,因此答案为A。
2)Mrs O’Neill asked __ questions and she didn’t scold us either.A. noB. certainC. manyD. moreand是一个并列连词;either为副词,用在否定句或否定词后加强语势,由此可以确定所填的词也应是一个否定意义的词,因此答案是A。
5.形意结合,前后参照完形填空所要求填的答案在意义上必须和短文内容相符,形式上必须符合语法规则和习惯用法。
有些同学之所以失分较多,其中一个很重要的原因就是顾此失彼。
同学们在选择答案时,应先从意义上判断其是否与短文内容相吻合,然后再从形式上(如时态、语态、非谓语动词、主谓一致、固定搭配等)判断所选答案是否恰当,前后参照,连贯考虑,提高选择的准确率。
比如:Washoe is a young chimpanzee(黑猩猩). She is no 41 chimpanzee, though. Scientists are doing a research 42 her . They want to see how civilized she can 43 . Already she does many things a human being can do.(95NMET)41空的选项是foolish/ordinary/special/simple,均为形容词,都能修饰chimpanzee, 根据下文, 此黑猩猩在接受驯化,已经能做人能做的许多事,从而便可确定,她不再是普通的(ordinary)黑猩猩了.如果不前后参照,去辨别四个词的用法,是无法选出正确答案的.6.先易后难,迂回解题做完形填空时,对于一时没有把握的题目,可以采用“迂回战术”,在题号前标上记号,先绕过去做下面的题目。
在做完较容易的题目之后再回过头来思考那些难题,同时把已确定好了的答案代入短文,帮助理解。
这样,也许难题就不难了。
7、把握文章组织结构主要是针对语篇题。
做题时,要把准文章作者发展脉络,文章的起承转合,要注意段落与段落之间,句与句之间的内在逻辑联系,领悟暗示,选对答案。
Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened __21__. As was discussed before, it was not __22__ the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic __23__. (2002)21. A. between B. before C. since D. later22. A. after B. by C. during D. until23. A. means B. method C. medium D. measure答案:21. A. 22. D. 23. C分析:我们注意到文章讲了两个时间:20世纪和15、16世纪,而19世纪显然是处在两者之间,故21填between。
22题是一语法结构题,固定结构:It was not until---that---。
