完形填空专项训练答案详解
(一)
The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to 1 students’ strong inter est in computers?
Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different 2 giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is 3 about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology. 4 , views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success 5 whether they can make use of computers effectively.
Let’s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see 6 difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present,20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject 7 .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the 8 that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it 9 to see the policy through.
Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to 10 the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.
Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools 11 IT learning has just started. All teachers—including the seniors who are very 12 in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to 13 from the very beginning. They will become 14 and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have 15 all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching 16 or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then 17 the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his 18 through the computer before class comes to an end in order to “complete” his IT learning 19 . 20 the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students’ level of Chin ese, pass on common values and so on? I am not so sure.

(二)
Tim Becker and his neighbors are doing something to make their neighborhood a trouble-free area.
When Tim Becker gets in his car to go shopping, he doesn’t 1 drive to a store and back home. He always looks 2 up and down the streets of his neighborhood. He looks for anything
3 such as strange cars, loud noises,
4 windows, or people gathering on street comers.

Tina Stedman, president of 10 neighborhood watch group, agr ees with Tim.“People seem to think that crime happens to other people but not 11 them.
Well, it’s never happened to me,” she said,“but I don’t think anyone has the 12 to steal from other people or to make them feel 13 sitting in their own homes.”
Alex, a member of the group, said that all the neighbors 14 out for one another,“We 15 each other’s homes. We keep watch on the neighborhood at night and on weekends. Usually a 16 of four or five of us goes out together. If something doesn’t look r ight, then we call the 17 . For example, if we notice a group of teenagers who seem to be looking for 18 ,or someone destroying property, we report to the police.”
Alex feels the neighborhood watch groups 19 a lot in keeping crime down. Her husba nd Jim agrees,“Police are good people, but they can’t do 20 .”
1.A.yet B.still C.just D.rather
【解析】本题考查副词词义辨析及学生依据语境选用恰当副词的能力。
从后面的句子可以知道Tim Becker去买东西时不只是从家到商店直来直去,而是还要在居民区里巡视,所以应选用副词just。
【答案】 C
2.A.carefully B.clearly C.nervously D.coldly
【解析】本题考查学生根据上下文判断并选择恰当副词来修饰动词的能力。
学生此处要考虑Tim是怎样在居民区巡视的,从整篇文章可以看出,Tim对居民区的保卫工作很负责任,同时下面一句也讲到他对发生的任何可疑情况都很注意,所以可以判定Tim总是“looks carefully”,而不是其他。
【答案】 A
3.A.familiar B.unusual C.expensive D.interesting
【解析】本题考查考生根据上下文对所给形容词做出判断选择的能力。
Tim 是为了社区安全进行巡视,应注意一些可疑情况,且后面举的例子也是一些反常情况,属于“unusual”。
【答案】 B
4.A.curtained B.open C.old D.broken
【解析】本题考查学生根据上下文进行判断选择的能力,前面提到的“anything unusual”为本题设立了前提,那么选A、B、C,即“拉着窗帘的窗户、开着的窗户、旧的窗户”都不属于“unusual”,而选择D,“打破的窗户”应为最佳答案。
【答案】 D
5.A.attends B.belongs C.goes D.turns
【解析】本题考查动词词意的辨析。
Tim与watch group的关系应是其中的一个成员,因此应选“belong to,属于”。
【答案】 B
6.A.meets B.quarrels C.sings D.searches
【解析】本题考查根据上下文做出判断及动词词意的辨析。
此题的提示在后面一句,即“…Tim gets together with…”,所以本句应理解为“社区巡视组的成员每月的第三个星期三会面一次。
”
【答案】 A
7.A.where B.why C.when D.how
【解析】本题考查学生对文章的准确理解并做出判断的能力。
句中“that”一词对此题的选择至关重要,that指“每月第三个星期三会面”,接下来应理解为
“那是Tim和其他成员交流讨论情况的时间”。
【答案】 C
8.A.politics B.wealth C.health D.safety
【解析】本题考查学生词意辨析和根据上下文进行判断的能力。
如果学生能知道四个名词的意思,此题应该比较容易。
根据文章的整体意思,显然他们讨论的是社区安全问题。
【答案】 D
9.A.keep B.hold C.let
D.protect
【解析】本题考查学生动词词意辨析及对句子的准确理解的能力。
根据文章意思,巡视组应是帮助警察维护社区的安全,即“keep…safe”,此题的干扰项是D,如果用“protect,保护”,虽然意思也正确,但不需要句子后面的safe,两个词意思重复。
【答案】 A
10.A.its B.his C.their D.your
【解析】本题考查学生对句子的准确理解及判断的能力。
此题的干扰项是B,如果选B,意思便是Tim的居住区,而Tina(注意Tina是女的)是这个巡视组的组长,也应住在此居民区,所以应该用“their,他们的居民区”。
【答案】 C
11.A.round B.on C.about D.to
【解析】本题考查学生对一些句型的掌握及句意的理解。
本句的意思是“人们好像觉得犯罪(案件)只是发生在别人身上,而不是发生在他们自己身上”。
此处承前面的动词happen,因此应该选“to”。
【答案】 D
12.A.right B.chance C.courage D.mind
【解析】本题考查学生对词意的辨析及阅读理解能力。
此句的意思是“我认为任何人都没有权力去偷别人的东西或是使得别人坐在家都觉得不安全。
”这里选用“任何人都没有机会/勇气/想法……”都是不合适的。
【答案】 A
13.A.unlucky B.unsafe C.disappointed
D.discouraged
【解析】本题考查根据上下文判断句意。
如果有被偷窃的可能,人们或许也会感到不幸、失望或泄气,但本篇文章讲的是关于社区安全,所以选择感到不安全,更符合上下文的意思。
【答案】 B
14.A.set B.let C.hold D.look
【解析】本题考查学生对一些常用动词短语的掌握。
set out意为“出发”,let out意为“发出”,hold out意为“举出”,look out意为“小心”。
根据上下文判断,D 为正确答案。
【答案】 D
15.A.care B.enter C.watch D.manage
【解析】本题考查动词词意辨析及在具体语境中的使用。
根据上下文,最佳选择应是watch,意为“巡视、留意(彼此的家)”,而不是“介意”“进入”或“经营”(彼此的家)。
【答案】 C
16.A.group B.set C.number D.crowd
【解析】本题考查的是一组名词的词意辨析。
后面的“four or five of us”决定了应是“a group of,一小组/一小队”,而不是“a set of,一套”“a number of,若干个”或“a crowd of,一大群”。
【答案】 A
17.A.judges B.police C.firemen D.doctors
【解析】本题考查学生根据上下文进行推理判断的能力。
此题的提示在后面一句“For example,if…,we report to the police.”这里的“For example”即把本题句子的内容具体化了,所以应选择“call the police”,而不是其他。
【答案】 B
18.A.work B.burden C.service
D.trouble
【解析】本题考查学生根据上下文进行推理判断的能力。
因为“we report to the police”,所以应是出现一些不良现象或犯罪情况,如:“someone destr oying poverty”,因此应选择“look for trouble”,选项B的意思是“负担”,此处也不合适。
【答案】 D
19.A.produce B.find C.get D.help
【解析】本题考查学生对文章的理解能力和根据上下文进行判断的能力。
根据上下文,特别是后面一句中“agree”一词,说明Alex和她丈夫的观点是一致的,因此19、20两题相互提示、相互补充,那么在19题中应理解为“巡视小组对减少犯罪有很大帮助”,而不是“产生很多(A)”“发现很多(B)”,或“得到很多(C)”。
【答案】 D
20.A.anything B.evening C.harm D.wrong
【解析】本题考查学生根据上下文进行推理判断的能力。
前面讲到巡视小组对控制犯罪帮助很大,此处接着阐述这一观点,即“警察(在维护治安中)很重要,但他们不可能做好一切。
”
【答案】 B
(三)
People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking; they try to find a solution by trial and error. 2 , when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 3 in analyzing a problem.
4 the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must
5 that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next the person must find the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 6 the parts that are wrong.
Now the person must look for 7 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 8 solutions. For example, suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work
because there is something wrong with the brakes. 9 ,he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 10 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.
After 11 the problem, the person should have 12 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 13 ,his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.
In the end, one 14 seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the 15 idea comes quite 16 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 17 way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖) stuck to a brake. He 18 hits on the solution to his problem: he must 19 the brake.
Finally the solution is 20 .Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.
1.A.serious ual C.similar mon
【解析】从上文的提示“try to remember a solution from the last time”,表明人们一旦遇上类似的问题,首先想到的是上次碰到这类问题的解决办法。
只有问题“类似”,才会想到“上一次”的办法。
【答案】 C
2.A.Besides B.Instead C.Otherwise D.However
【解析】下文用however表示转折,表明作者观点:有时靠老办法往往不灵,于是人们便开始分析问题,寻找新的解决途径。
【答案】 D
3.A.ways B.conditions C.stages D.orders
【解析】从下文的列举看,作者讲的是解决问题的六个阶段,且层层深入(stage:a period in a course of events),而不是在阐述解决问题的六个办法、条件、顺序。
【答案】 C
4.A.First ually
C.In general
D.Most importantly
【解析】下文next,finally等表明作者在列举分析问题、解决问题的几个步骤,故填first(首先),与下文呼应。
【答案】 A
5.A.explain B.prove C.show D.see
【解析】作为分析的第一步,Sam必须查看自行车的毛病出在哪儿。
see 在此的含义是:examine or recognize by looking。
【答案】 D
6.A.check B.determine C.correct D.recover
【解析】determine在这里意为“断定、确定”的意思,因为只有断定哪个部分有问题,才会找到针对性的解决办法。
【答案】 B
7.A.answers B.skills C.explanation
rmation
【解析】下文he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes,talked to his friends at the bike shop,表明Sam是在查找有关自行车修理的资料和
信息。
【答案】 D
8.A.possible B.exact C.real D.special
【解析】此时的解决方案尚未确定,故只能是possible solutions,下文 a possible solution有暗示。
【答案】 A
9.A.In other words B.Once in a while
C.First of all
D.At this time
【解析】at this time表示Sam断定车闸出了毛病的同时即查找修理车闸的资料。
【答案】 D

【解析】此处用talk to表明Sam与自行车店的朋友通过交谈了解修理自行车车闸的有关资料、信息。
【答案】 B
11.A.discussing B.settling down paring with D.studying
【解析】上文Sam所做的一切均属于studying(学习、研究)的行为。
【答案】 D
12.A.extra B.enough C.several
D.countless

【答案】 C
13.A.secondly B.again C.also D.alone
【解析】作者再次以Sam修自行车为例,说明确定问题所在之后如何解决问题,有一些意见、建议可供选择。
【答案】 B
14.A.suggestion B.conclusion C.decision D.discovery
【解析】上文表明有一些建议可供选择,但最终导致解决问题似乎只有其中的一条。
【答案】 A
15.A.next B.clear C.final D.new
【解析】从下文举例看,有时导致解决问题最后的主意纯属意外。
【答案】 C
16.A.unexpectedly te C.clearly D.often
【解析】上文提到Sam解决自行车车闸问题有几条建议可供选择:拧紧或放松车闸,买新车闸,更换旧车闸,这时Sam突然发现车闸不灵的原因是一块口香糖将车闸粘住了,最终导致解决问题的办法便是意料之外了。
【答案】 A
17.A.simple B.different C.quick D.sudden
【解析】车闸问题的意外发现使Sam立即采取了完全不同的解决办法(既非拧紧或放松车闸,亦非更换车闸)。
【答案】 B
18.A.fortunately B.easily C.clearly
D.immediately
【解析】发现了问题的症结所在,解决问题便当机立断,毫不迟疑。
【答案】 D
19.A.clean B.separate C.loosen D.remove
【解析】既然口香糖粘住了车闸,只需清洗干净就可解决问题。
【答案】 A
20.A.recorded pleted C.tested D.accepted
【解析】Sam的解决办法经过“检验(test)”获得了成功,他的问题解决了。
【答案】 C
(四)
He has been called the “missing link”.Half-man, half-beast. He is supposed to live in the highest mountain in the world—Mount Everest.
He is known as the Abominable Snowman. The 1 of Snowman has been around for
2 . Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest. The native people said they
3 this creature and called it the “Yeti”,and they said that they had
4 caught Yetis on two occasions
5 none has ever been produced as evidence.
Over the years, the story of the Yetis has 6 . In 1916, Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest. Shipton believed that they were not 7 the tracks of a monkey or bear and 8 that the Abominable Snowman might really 9 .
Further efforts have been made to find out about Yetis. But the only things people have ever found were 10 footprints. Most believe the footprints are nothing more than 11 animal tracks, which had been made 12 as they melted and refroze in the snow. 13 ,in 1964,a Russian scientist said that the Abominable Snowman was 14 and was a remaining link with the prehistoric humans. But, 15 , no evidence has ever 16 been produced.
These days, only a few people continue to take the story of Abominable Snowman 17 , but if they ever 18 catching one, they may face a real 19 : Would they put it in a 20 or give it a room in a hotel?
1.A.event B.story C.adventure
D.description
【解析】四个选项均为名词,都可以填入空白处作句子的主语,但从该段叙述的多年来人们关于生存在喜马拉雅山上的雪人的传说及下文Over the years,the story of the Yetis has continued.和These days,only a few people continue to take the story of the Abominable Snowman seriously.就不难看出此空应填story。
【答案】 B
2.A.centuries B.too long C.some time D.many years
【解析】短文大部分描述的是多年来人们对于世界最高峰——珠穆朗玛峰上有关雪人存在的传说、考察和猜想,文中Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest 及In
1916,Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest.等信息,则清楚地说明了此空应填many years。
【答案】D
3.A.heard from B.cared for C.knew of D.read about
【解析】四个选项的短语动词所表达的意思不同。
hear from接到……的信;cared for关心、照顾、喜欢;know of知道,听说(不一定见过或认识);read about 谈到,获悉。
短文第二段中they said that they had 4 caught Yetis on two occasions 5 none has ever been produced as evidence(证据)说明了人们对珠穆朗玛峰上雪人的存在只不过是听说而已,却拿不出任何证据,自然最佳答案应该选C了。
【答案】C
4.A.even B.hardly C.certainly D.probably
【解析】上文20世纪20年代的登山者报告,在珠穆朗玛峰坡上发现了像人脚印一样的足迹。
当地人听说过这种动物并给其起名为“雪人”。
这里they said that they had caught Yetis on two occasions 是当地人叙述雪人存在的一种更为真实的情况,因此此空应填副词even,意思是“甚至”,用来加强语气,强调谓语动词,故最佳答案选A。
【答案】 A
5.A.as B.though C.when D.until
【解析】主句中叙述了they had even caught Yetis on two occasions,从句none has ever been produced as evidence则否定了上述情况的真实性,表示的是让步意义,故此空应填though,引导一个让步状语从句。
【答案】 B
6.A.developed B.changed C.occurred
D.continued
【解析】四个选项的过去分词都可以和助动词has构成现在完成时态,从单句看很难选择。
短文第二段叙述了Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest及下文In 1916,Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest则说明了珠穆朗玛峰上雪人故事的发展情况,故此空应填continued。
【答案】 D
7.A.entirely B.naturally C.clearly D.simply
【解析】根据四个选项的副词意思判断,如果填入前三个,则在某种程度上肯定了Eric Shipton 在珠穆朗玛峰雪地里所拍摄的足迹是猴子或熊留下的。
这与下文the Abominable snowman might really exist.所表达的意思不符,所以此空只能填simply。
【答案】 D
8.A.found B.declared C.felt D.doubted
【解析】四个选项均为动词的过去式,但只有felt 意为“感到”,不仅表示感官知觉,还表示情感或想法,且能与前一个谓语动词believed 所表达的意思相吻合。
两个并列的谓语动词后各带一个宾语从句,叙述了Shipton由拍照珠穆朗玛峰雪地里的足迹联想到雪人存在的可能性,故C为最佳选项。
【答案】 C
9.A.exist B.escape C.disappear
D.return
【解析】四个选项所表达的意思不同:exist 存在;escape逃跑;disappear 消失;return返回。
由前一个宾语从句that they were not simply the tracks of the a monkey or bear可以判断出此空应填exist,即Shipton 认为在珠穆朗玛峰上,雪人很可能真正存在。
【答案】 A
10.A.clearer B.more C.possible D.rare
【解析】短文第二段叙述了Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest。
我们再根据该空所在段的首句Further efforts have been made to find out about Yetis及下文Most believe the footprints are nothing more than ordinary animal tracks 就可以判断出此空应填more,说明人们在弄清雪人真相的努力中,所发现的唯一东西仅仅是更多的脚印,故此空应填more。
【答案】 B
11.A.huge B.recent C.ordinary
D.frightening
【解析】由下文However,in 1964,a Russian scientist said that the Abominable Snowman was real 可以推测出,此空应填形容词ordinary,说明大多数人认为,他们发现的更多的脚印,只不过是普通动物的足迹。
【答案】 C
12.A.strange rge C.deep D.rough
【解析】此句which 引导的非限制性定语从句中,含有一个原因状语从句。
As they melted and refroze in the snow清楚地阐述了人们发现的更多的脚印要比普通的动物足迹大的原因。
此空应填形容词large,在定语从句中作主语补足语。
【答案】 B
13.A.In the end B.Therefore C.After all D.However
【解析】空白后1964年,俄罗斯科学家说的the Abominable Snowman was real and was a remaining link with the prehistoric humans与上句说的大部分人相信脚印只不过是普通动物的足迹,不承认雪人的存在所表示的是转折关系,故此空应填副词However,表转折。
【答案】 D
14.A.imagined B.real C.special
D.familiar
【解析】前句叙述了Most believe the footprints are nothing more than ordinary animal tracks,我们再根据However所表示的转折意义,就不难判断出此空应填形容词real。
一位俄国科学家认为雪人是真的。
【答案】 B
15.A.so B.besides C.again D.instead
【解析】短文第二段叙述了登山者报告,发现了在珠穆朗玛峰坡有像人脚印的足迹,当地人把这种动物称之为雪人,他们还说甚至于两次捉到了雪人,事实是none has ever been produced as evidence。
短文第四段又叙述了1964年,一位俄国科学家说雪人是真的,并且与史前的人类继续存在着联系。
由but所表示的转折意义及空白后no evidence has ever actually been produced可以判断出,此空应填副词again,在句中作插入语,说明俄罗斯科学家所说的雪人的存在,又一
次没有得到真实存在的证据。
【答案】 C
16.A.rightly B.actually C.normally D.particularly
【解析】四个选项的副词填在句中作状语修饰谓语动词语法都正确,但是根据上文中一句肯定了雪人的存在,以及根据空白所在句子中but所表示的转折意义和again 一词对雪人存在证据的再次否定,就不难判断出此空应填actually。
【答案】 B
17.A.lightly B.jokingly C.seriously D.properly
【解析】上文叙述了登山者及当地人认为珠穆朗玛峰雪人的存在,并对弄清雪人的真实情况作了进一步的努力,还有一些外国人也认为雪人是真的,但都只不过是传说和猜测而已,谁也拿不出真凭实据。
我们再根据空白前的语境,可以体会出当今人们对有关雪人的故事已经冷淡下来,仅有很少的人认真对待此事,故此空应填副词seriously,意为“严肃地”“认真地”。
【答案】 C
18.A.succeed in B.insist on C.depend on D.join in
【解析】四个选项均为“动词+介词”构成的短语动词,其后都能跟动名词作宾语,填在句中语法都正确,但它们所表达的意义都不同:succeed in做成某事;insist on坚持; depend on 依靠;join in参加。
由该句的主句they may face a real problem:Would they put it in a zoo or give it a room in a hotel?可以推断出,条件状语从句所假定的是成功地捉住了雪人,无疑答案应选A。
【答案】 A
19.A.decision B.situation C.subject
D.problem
【解析】四个选项的名词填入句中作宾语语法都正确,但短文末句Would they put it in a zoo or give it a room in a hotel?则清楚地告诉我们,究竟把雪人放在何处?这是捉住雪人的人们所面临的一个难以抉择的真实问题,故此空应填problem。
【答案】 D
20.A.zoo B.mountain C.museum
boratory
【解析】四个选项均为表示处所的名词,填入哪个选项正确很难做出抉择。
我们读了短文第一段就可以知道,人们对这种被认为生活在世界最高山峰珠穆朗玛峰的所谓雪人,究竟属于人类还是属于动物还没有明确地划分出来。
如果“雪人”划归人类,应该give it a room in a hotel;如果把“雪人”划归动物,自然应该放到动物园里去生活了,故此空应填zoo。
【答案】 A
