1、第三部分 完形填空 完形填空题作为近年来考高中一直保留的题型，主要是考查学生对英语知识技能的一种全面把握能力。作为一种传统题型，它能比较全面准确地反映出考生的真实英语水平。就题目本身而言，文章取材广泛，难度适中，长短适度，一般三四百单词左右，题目设置二十个，涉及基本语法项目，综合性强。在做完形填空题时，一般来说先要了解试题的命题导向，具备一定的语言综合能力，做题时应整体把握全文信息，抓住文章大意，然后紧扣中心，运用所学知识，细心推测，辨析词义，仔细答题。 一、高考试题命题导向分析 1.试题命题总体原则 高考完形填空题一般取材于英文杂志报刊等，文章一般也是由以英语为母语的人士撰写，因此，文章通俗
2、、地道。就题目设置而言，为了使考生在理解文章时得到一定启示，命题时一般不在文章开头就设空，这样有利于考生更好地抓住全文大意。文章主体部分逻辑性强，结构严谨，主题明确，中心突出，一般以记叙文为主，说明文、议论文为辅，其测试目标并不是以语言知识为主要目标，而是以对文意的理解为主要目标。 2.试题内容分析 A.就整个语段而言，近年来完形填空题多以围绕某一主题为中心，根据文章情景和意义进行推理判断。它要求考生根据文章的主题，情节和内在的逻辑关系来选择最佳答案。有时单就某句话而言，四个选项都是正确的，但如果从整体上看，却只有一个答案是最佳的，从而避免了只看答案，甚至不看全文内容就可选出答案的语法式选择。
3、现在的试题有时是将语言知识与情节推理相结合，语言知识与逻辑推理相结合的。 B.就所考题目本身而言，所考题目基本上是以实词为主，虚词为辅。考得较多的是名词、动词、形容词和副词等。此外，还夹杂一些词组(短语)，要求学生结合文章具体的情节，作出合理的选择。下面是近几年来高考试题中各小题所设置的词类与短语数量统计情况:年度动词名词形容词副词连词代词介词词组短语199566221030199610362130119971290120101998685221121999864321122000853430032001544610012002852211022003836210012004105310001
4、200593221111二、完形填空题的解题技巧 在高考做完形填空试题时，一定切忌匆忙下手，要首先从整体上把握全文含义，重视完整句的启示作用，弄清各分句，各段落之间的内在逻辑关系，仔细分析，弄清出题人的意图，注意文中所表达的心理活动，言语的表达形式，作者的态度及文章的主旨。一般来说，可以从以下几个方面人手: 1.通篇考查，抓住大意 做完形填空切忌拿来就做，必须先通览全文，对文章的大意进行整体把握，然后再化整为零，逐题选择。这才是正确的战略战术。 通览全文还须有科学的方法，应从提示句、完整句、关键句着手，充分利用已有信息来捕捉、扩展有效信息，注意细小情节和主要情节的发展，注意人物的心理活动等。在
5、这一步中将难词、难结构、难句做上记号，留到下一步去解决。 2.“网”上邻居，注意逻辑 在通读全文并对全文形成大致初步印象的基础上，围绕文章主题积极开展思维，寻找突破口。一般说来，完形填空题中有一些题比较容易选出正确答案，但有些题必须从左邻右舍，上下文中的逻辑联系中去寻求正确答案，这就要求做题者必须联系上下文来仔细考虑。一旦容易的题目得以解决，便可借助它们提供的信息进一步乘势扩大战果，歼灭较难的题目。 3.紧扣中心，小心推理 每篇完形填空都有部分空格难以选择答案。除了语言知识等因素的障碍外，主要原因还是考生对文意不大清楚之故。高考完形填空一般来说是有情节的。有些题目就是依托情节的发展而设置的。因
6、此，只有弄清了情节，掌握了大意才能扣住中心。这样对于有意设计的几个题的连环答案选择才会准确无误，不然错一个就会导致几个错选。对于这类题只要倍加小心，抓住中心，注意情节发展的逻辑，小心推理就会避免出现连续性错误。 4.辨析词义，果断答题 现在的完形填空题基本上其选项在所在空格为独句时都是正确的。只是在整篇文章中只有一个是对的，因此，对于所给的几个选项中的词汇的辨析就格外重要。要最终确立正确答案，其落脚点还是归结到对词汇意义的掌握上了。假如知道该空格应用表示某种意义的词汇而考生对所给的选词的意义不能进行辨析，则不能选出正确答案。要做好完形填空题，考生必须具备扎实的词汇基础。 5.复读全文，确认答案
7、 复读全文是解答完形填空必不可少的最后一道程序。这一步要根据文章主题，依据情节发展逻辑，根据语法知识对整个题目进行一次全方位的检索，重点检查与文章中心不符的问题，对答案进行确认。 简言之，做好完形填空题并非一朝一夕之事，平时必须练好扎实的语言基本功，下力气培养语感，增加、扩充文化背景知识，要多操练。只有在了解上述解题的思路的基础上进行技巧性操练才能达到熟能生巧，才能在考试中稳操胜券。下面是典型例题部分省市完形填空试题及试题分析:I.

60、able C. unbelievable D. unreal试题分析 1.B 解析:考查动词短语的固定搭配“take sthforexampie”。2.C 解析:used to see(过去经常看见)，这里的used呼应上一句中提到的become used to。3.A 解析:惯用法，如“What iswas the weather like?”对天气提问习惯用what。4.D 解析:从下句“she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves”可知最符合实际情况的应是下雪天，D 为最佳答案。 5.B 解析:四个选项均是动词。take out意为
61、“拿出、取出”；carry out意为“开展、执行”；turn out意为“结果是、证明是”。以上均不合题意。bring out neat，belted cottond resses在文中意译为“穿着整洁的，有腰带， 的棉质衣服。” 6.A 解析:从上文对the wman的描述可知，她“显然” 是一位“普通的劳动妇女”。这里的正确答案A“cleary”相当于“obviously”。 7.C 解析:根据文章第一句“不知为何，我们总是要等到那些我们过去常常见到的东西突然消失时，才会发现它的存在。”可知，我“记 得 (remember)”这些也不仅仅是在再也见不到她以后。其他三个选项分别为:beli
62、eve相信；express表达；wonder纳闷、想知道。8.D 解析:从句式讲，此句是一个强调句结构。句意为“直到那时我才意识到每天早上我有多么盼望见到她。”9.B 解析:四个选项均是动词。respect尊敬；miss想念；praise赞扬；admire钦佩、羡慕。结合上句可知，在这里最符合句意的显然是B。 10.B 解析:该句是紧接上段因见不到the woman而作的种种猜想。由accident可分析出，此处最佳答案应为B，意为“还是发生了更糟的事?”。11.A 解析:四个选项均是名词。disappearance消失；appearance 出现；misfortune坏运气、不幸、灾难；fo
63、rtune 好运、幸运。因前面已交代过，作者很长时间没见到the woman，所以“Adisappearance”应为最佳答案。 12.C 解析:四个选项均是动词。其中forget“忘记”和hurt“伤害”显然不合句意。此处应理解为“既然她已 经走了(我再也碰不见她)，我感到我已经知道 (或了解)她了。”这样与下文相呼应。答案为C。 13.D 解析:四个选项均是形容词。enjoyable快乐的、有趣的；frequent频繁的、习以为常的每日的日常 的。此处作者是指人们为D。 14.B 解析:注意冒号后面列举的几类人:黎明时看到的送奶人、每天早上遛狗的女人、图书馆里见到的双胞胎兄弟。只有stra
64、ngers能概括这几类人。 15.A 解析:四个选项均是副词。regularly有规律地；actually实际上；hardly几乎不；probably可能。由every morning可知应是A。 16.C 解析:四个选项均是形容词。common普通的、常见的；pleasant令人愉快的、舒适的；important重要的；faithfd忠实的。从下 句“They add weight to our senseof place and belonging.”(他们使我们对所处的空间和所拥有的东西有更好的认识。)可知这些人是我们眼中“重要的”标志者。答案为C。 17.D 解析:choice选择；k
65、nowledge知识；decision决定； sense感觉、感官。如:sense of heating听觉；sense of sight视觉等。18.B 解析:四个选项均是连词，这里作者提出一种假设，因此答案是B。 19.C 解析:该句意为“当步行上街时，我们靠经过某一 建筑物来标志我们所在的位置。20.A解折；作者所列举的是几类人，故最佳选项是wnnamed.考点高分解题综合训练 (1) The professors house, big and untidy, stood alone at one end of a huge garden.
