专题十六 完形填空
知识清单
一、命题特点
完形填空题是通过阅读考查学生语言知识及综合运用能力的一种测试形式。命题人在一段难度适度的文章中留出5~15个空白,要求考生从所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案,使补足的短文意思通顺、结构完整。
完形填空是介于单项填空和阅读理解之间的一种题型。可以说它是根据一篇文章所提供的情景进行的选择填空,也可以说它是在缺少个别单词情况下的阅读理解。完形填空既有对语法规则、习惯用法和词语搭配的考查,又有对文章内容的通篇理解。完形填空主要考查以下三个方面的内容:
1. 词汇:
此类题目考查的内容是:近义词的区别,词语的固定搭配和习惯用法。近几年陕西省中考题中的完形填空题考查的词汇类别涉及到名词、代词、动词、介词、连词、形容词、副词和短语动词。
2. 语法:
此类题目考查的是:各种语法规则在文章中的运用。其中包括名词的单复数,形容词、副词的比较等级,动词的时态和语态,介词、数词、代词和连词的用法,主谓一致,各种从句的用法等。
3. 结构:
此类题目考查的是:文章中间句子与句子之间,段落与段落之间,上文与下文之间的逻辑关系。
从设空的类型看可分为三个层次:(1)句子层次;(2)句组层次;(3)全篇层次。
设空的难度,从句子层次到句组层次,再到全篇层次,依次增加。
分析近几年各地区的完形填空题,我们可以看出设空主要以句子层次为主,以句组层次为辅,几乎没有全篇层次题目。因此总体难度较低。
二、考点分析
完形填空题是一种旨在考查学生语法和词汇知识综合运用能力的典型题型。它结合了单项选择题和短文填空的优点,既考查词语搭配、近义词辨异、动词时态、句型结构、复合句的关联和习惯用法等,又考查了逻辑推理和事理推断能力。
25
1. 完形填空题要求填入的词
(1)语法结构所要求的功能词,如连接词、连接代词、连接副词、关系代词、关系副词等;
(2)具有语法变化的普通词,如动词的时态、语态、语气,名词的数,代词的格,形容词和副词的级等;
(3)固定搭配短语或词组中的特定词;
(4)同义词、近义词等易混淆词;
(5)根据上、下文意思及结构必须填入的确定词。
可见,完形填空是一种综合性较强的题型。它的突出特点是起点高、容量大。同学们只有具备了扎实的语言基本功、较好的阅读能力及归纳判断能力,才能适应这一题型。
2. 完形填空题的考查目的
(1)考查同学们阅读理解能力;
(2)考查同学们语法知识;
(3)考查同学们综合运用英语知识的水平和实践能力。
提分策略
一、解题步骤
近年来完形填空试题的考点已由在语篇中考查语法逐渐转向对语篇的整体理解。比如多数试题所设选项如单从语法角度来判定都是正确的,但一旦联系语篇内容,则只有一个正确答案。解答这类试题考生除必须掌握一定的语法、词汇知识外,还有赖于提高阅读理解能力。该题型的技巧如下:
1. 通读全文,了解大意
要着眼大局,速读全文。用3~4分钟,以略读方式快速浏览全文,从语篇整体上了解文章的主题,文体特征,找出作者的观点,态度,思路,结合段首句、段尾句和含有连贯意义的词语,找到文章展开的,句与句以及段与段之间的逻辑关系。
2. 瞻前顾后,逐步填空
逐句通读全文,各个击破,做到通读与猜测并行。对含义明显的词汇,固定搭配或习惯用法,常用句式等纯知识问题,可以边读边随时猜测出答案。针对在通读过程中未能轻易猜测出答案的题目,利用上下文中、字里行间的线索猜测出答案。
3. 认真复查,适当调整
检查核实,通读选定答案后的全文。此时的文章应当是一个语法结构正确,用词准确,上下文逻辑关系严密,主题突出,内容充实,
25
意思连贯的整体。如果发现个别填空使文章文理不通,语法结构有问题,就说明选答不正确。对这样的填空应该认真推敲,进行调整。可以从以下几个方面对所选答案进行核查:
(1)所选择的单词或短语是否符合本句内容,使上下文连贯和谐,与全文意义相协调;
(2)所选择的单词或短语是否符合某种固定搭配;
(3)所选择的单词或短语是否符合某种句型、时态、语态的特殊要求;
(4)所选词本身和附近的词有无特殊要求,如有些动词后面只接动名词而不能接不定式。

二、 技巧点拨
在实际考试过程中,考生可以借鉴以下几种解题策略:
1. 运用语篇知识
完形填空不同于单项选择,作为一个意思连贯,结构完整的语篇,利用篇章知识是做完形填空的非常重要的技巧和手段。
(1)利用段首句或首段最大限度地获取信息。
通常,完形填空的第一句话甚至前几句话都是完整的,为考生提供足够的信息,去挖掘文章思路,而且,这里往往包含主题句,或为理解文章的大意和主要内容提供必要的线索。
(2)把握文章发展的基本线索,搞清段落和句子之间的逻辑关系。
完形填空是一篇有完整内容且按照一定思路发展的文章,各段各句之间都有逻辑上的必然联系。应熟记表达不同逻辑关系的连词:
表示列举的连词:first, second, third...
表示原因的连词:because, since...
表示结果的连词:so, therefore...
(3)利用上下文寻找解题信息。
完形填空的文章都是一个意义相关联的语篇。它围绕一个话题论述,在行文中词语重复、替代、复现和同现现象是不可避免的。根据这个原则,某一个空格所对应的答案很可能就是在上下文中复现或同现的有关词,我们可以根据这些动词之间的联系确定答案。所以,解题时,应联系上下文,寻找相关线索。
2. 运用词汇、语法等方面的语言知识
词意理解和辨析以及语法结构是完形填空的测试重点,因此可以充分发挥积累的语言基础知识,利用搭配知识解题。
3. 运用背景知识、社会常识解题
解答完形填空题时,考生的英语语言知识和有关社会的知识都发挥着重要的作用。完形填空的文章的内容经常与日常生活相关,有的内容是我们头脑中已经了解的常识。当对语言的把握不很准确时,可充分利用社会知识和科普常识来帮助判断。

Happiness is for everyone, and you don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with 1 and swimming pools or those who have nice cars 2 a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often 3 lonely
25
and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in 4 at school, your friends will help you; when you study at your lessons, your parents are always 5 good care of your life and your health; when you get 6 , your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to 7 it.

Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor,you can also say you are very happy because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy because you have more chances to 9 yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor or you have bad luck. As the saying goes: Life is like a revolving(转动的)door. When it 10 , it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

I was really 4 because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition, thinking that I might be lucky again, I 5 joining in other art competitions,But the result was that I 6 won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a 7 artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills.

Still feeling shy, I 4 not to leave his bedside without letting him know. While I asked about how he was, he told me, “I'll be fine, Henry.” although we both knew that wasn't 5 . Then he asked me with a smile 6 I was doing.
