高考英语完形填空题专题辅导
一、主要考查点
(一)、固定搭配
英语中的固定搭配种类繁多,包括各种固定短语、习惯用法等。如:
“But they are damage to our houses and shops of historical interests.” Said John Norris, one of the protesters.(NMET’99第30题)
A. doing B. raising C. putting D. producing
〔解析〕 固定搭配do damage to意为“损害,破坏”。应选A。
(二)、词语辨析
利用相似词语,即选项中所给的四个词词性和意义相同或相近来设置选项。如果脱离语境或只看句子的一部分,此类题可能会有两个或两个以上的正确答案,但按语境分析,则只有一个正确答案。这类题主要考查考生的词汇及运用能力,而且近年来占很大的比重。如:
Finally I turned the key in the lock and ___ the door open, with... (NMET’2000第40题)
A. knocked
B. forced C. pushed
1
D. tried
〔解析〕既然是turn the key,那么用push the door open才合理。应选C。
(三)、语法知识
这些语法知识可能包括从句引导词、主谓一致、名词或代词的数或格、非谓语动词的用法、平行结构、倒装结构、强调句型、情态动词、虚拟语气、动词的基本时态及搭配等。但从近年的试题来看,单纯考查语法知识的题很少。例如:
When Ed first phoned and ___ we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory.(NMET’03第37题)
A. declared B. mentioned C. persuaded D. suggested
〔解析〕从we play可知本题考查的是虚拟语气的用法。应选D。
(四)、前后语境
主要考查考生结合全文结构和中心思想,根据常识或上下文提供的信息进行理解、分析以及推理的能力。这种题型在高考完形填空中比例最大。通常以后制性设空为主。所谓后制性设空,是指设空的答案由未读过的下文决定。如果设空的答案由已读过的上文决定,则为前制性设空。需要综合上下文而定的答案,则为语篇性设空。完形填空的设空答案有的由一个句子决定,有的由相邻不远的句子决定,还有的则由语篇内容综合决定。因此语境型设空也可分为:(1)句子层次;(2)句组层次;(3)语篇层次。设空的难度,从句子层次到句组层次,再到语篇层次,依次递增。如2002年完形填空题,句子层次设空为5个,句组层次设空为6个,语篇层次设空为9个,语篇层次设空的比例超过了三分之一。
2
又如,2003年NMET完形填空题有10个小题需要考生逾越句子层次理解和推断。这种设题方式体现了“突出语篇”的命题思路。如:
It was one of the most ___ and tiring games I’ve ever had. (NMET’03第36题)
A. encouraging B. hopeless C. surprising D. regular
〔解析〕此题并非考查四个词的区别,而是考查对全文的理解。此空为后制性设空,通过文中结尾的叙述可推断C项为正确答案。
(五)、行文逻辑
有时,选项中的四个词为表示上下文逻辑关系的转换词语,它涉及文章的起承转合、上下连贯。这类题主要考查考生对上下文逻辑关系的理解,如转折关系、让步关系、因果关系、递进关系、增补关系、比较关系、对比关系等,并考查考生对转换词语的运用能力。如:
My cousin must have made an effort to get himself into shape. ___, at the point in our game when I’d predicted the score to be about 9 to 1 in my favor...(NMET’03 第48题)
A.After all B. As a result C. Above all D. At last
〔解析〕此处有出人意料之意,且表示结果,故B项符合行文逻辑。

二、高考完形填空题稳中求变,近年也出现了一些新的变化。
(一)词义辨析比重加大
高考加强实词和上下文语境的考查,势必增加对同义词、近义词辨析的考查。如2003年有5个小题涉及到词义辨析。
(二)短文用语更加真实
高考完形填空题所用语言更加接近英美人的实际交际用语。生活中使用的非正式的、口语化的用语正在增多,不合语法规范的语言现象也偶尔出现。如2002年NMET完形填空短文中就出现了这样的句子“you fool”,还出现了一些口语化的语言 “Because you are so goddamned educated”, 其中goddamned 为非正式口头语,用来增强语气,意为“很、很大”。
(三)副词考查相对集中
经研究表明:even, ever, still, just, almost, already等副词似乎备受高考命题者的青睐。大部分年份均对此点作过考查。
1996年:A. even B. still C. always D. almost
1998年:A. yet B. even C. never D. just
2000年:A. yet B. only C. even D. still
4
2001年:A. even B. hardly C. certainly D. probably
2002年:A. Then B. Thus C. Therefore D. Yet
(四)排比结构多次重现
高考完形填空短文中常常会出现一些排比结构和平行结构,掌握这些结构极为相似的句子可大大提高我们的解题效果。请看下面两例。
When she wants to be picked up, Washoe points up with one finger. She rubs her teeth with her finger when she wants to brush her teeth.(NMET’95)
Should the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the extra change received at the store be forgotten or returned?(NMET’96)
(五)答案分布趋于均等
1999年(共25空)A(7) B(6) C(6) D(6)
2000年(共20空)A(5) B(4) C(5) D(6)
2001年(共20空)A(4) B(6) C(5) D(5)
2002年(共20空)A(6) B(4) C(5) D(5)
5
2003年(共20空)A(5) B(5) C(5) D(5)
所以对于没有把握的题目,考生若是要猜的话,最好去猜那些已选答案较少的选项,这样得分的可能性要大些。
三、完形填空题实用破题技巧
高考完形填空题命制的心理学依据是“格式塔心理学”,意为组织结构或整体。该心理学派认为:人的心理现象最基本的特征是在意识经验中所显现的事物的结构性或整体性。所以,在解答完形填空题时,必须首先通读全文,把握语篇的轮廓和话题;在把握语篇的解题线索的基础上,再综合运用自己的语言知识、词汇知识、语法知识以及文化背景等知识,利用分析、判断、推理等手段,进而有效地解题。据此,介绍下面一些解题技巧。
(一)、利用首句信息解题
首句是一个完整的句子,它提供的信息是把握全文主旨的关键,可以帮助我们判断全文大意甚至全文主题。
【例】The measure of a man’s real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out. ——Thomas Macaulay (NMET’96)
〔解析〕这是短文开头的一个引证。它用名人语录揭示主题。本句的意思是:衡量人真正本质的标准是当他知道无人能知晓时,他的所作所为如何。实际上,这是下面完形填空全文的论点。下文紧接着用了4段篇幅,以自己一次考试中的作弊为例,讲述往事,结尾进行了评价——自觉性对于一个人的意义。如果能看懂开头所引语录,则能较快地领悟
6
全文的主旨。
(二)、利用语法分析解题
完形填空中考查语法项目的题目可以利用所学的语法结构、句式特点来解题。
【例】 51 do you suppose he asked for them?(NMET’02)
51. A. What B. How C. Who D. Which
〔解析〕do you suppose为插入成分。“he asked for them” 是一个相对和完整的句子,因此空格处应该用副词How来修饰谓语动词asked,而不能用代词 What, Who或 Which。
(三)、利用惯用法和词语辨析知识解题
完形填空题中对词汇知识的考查,主要体现在习惯用法和同义词、近义词的辨析两方面。对词义辨析题的考查有加大力度的趋势。要做好这类题,需要有较大的词汇量和词语搭配能力、词语辨析能力,特别是在特定的语境中能灵活运用的能力。
【例】These days, only a few people continue to take the story of the Abominable Snowman 52 . But if they ever succeed in catching one, they may face a real problem: Would they put it in a zoo or give it a room in a hotel?(NMET’01)
52. A. lightly B. jokingly C. seriously D. properly
7
〔解析〕这一段是对全文作出的一个小结,说明雪人的传说流传至今,人们对其所持的态度。句中的“only a few people...”表明时至今日,仍“信其有”的人已经很少了。与之对应,应该用短语动词 take sth/sb seriously,表示“只有很少人把这传说当真”。
(四)、利用语篇标志解题
语篇一般指比句子长的语言单位,如句群、段落、篇章等。语篇与语篇之间往往有表明其内在联系的词语,这些词语被称为“语篇标志”。如表示结构层次的语篇标志语有:firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally等;表示逻辑关系的语篇标志语有thus, therefore, so等;表示改变话题的语篇标志语有by the way等;表示递进关系的语篇标志语有besides, what’s more, further等;表示时间关系的语篇标志语有before, so far, yet, meanwhile, later等等。在做完形填空时,如果能充分利用这些语篇标志语,就可以迅速理清文章的脉络,弄清上下文的关系。
【例】If the 24-hour cycle is disturbed most people experience unpleasant feelings. For example, people who are not used to working at night can find that lack of sleep causes them to perform badly at work. 1 the daily cycle of sleeping and waking, we also have other cycles which last longer than one day.
1. A. With B. As well as C. Except D. Rather than
〔解析〕上一段讲的是一天的睡眠和工作的周期,下一段讲比一天持续时间更长的其他周期。文中的also 和other是语篇标志语。必须用连词 as well as(和,又)连接两个同类事物。
8
(五)、利用文化背景和生活常识解题
完形填空命题的基本形式是的语篇,它以自身的内容提供完整的语篇信息,但其中有时渗透着相关的如文化科学、历史地理、风俗民情等方面的知识。高中生已经掌握了丰富的文化背景知识和生活常识,具备了一定的判断能力。在做题时,若能积极地调动自己的文化背景和生活常识,巧妙地加以运用,特别是注意中西方文化的差异,将会大大简化复杂的分析与判断过程,节省时间,顺利地沿作者的思路阅读下去。
【例】Most believe the footprints are nothing more than ordinary animal tracks, which had been made 47 as they melted (融化) and refroze in the snow.(NMET’01)
47. A. strange B. large C. deep D. rough
〔解析〕根据常识判断,当这类footprints melted and refroze in the snow 时,它们的确有可能会变得strange, large, deep或 rough(=not smooth) 。但在诸多特征里面,最能引起人们联想到雪人与一般动物的脚印不同之处是其“大”,而非其他。另外还有这样一个常识:雪上较深的印痕经过融化和再次冻结后,会变得更大一些。故选B。
(六)、利用逻辑判断解题
【例】...and they said that they had even caught Yetis on two occasions though none has been produced as evidence(证据)...But, 50 , no evidence has ever actually been produced.(NMET’01)
9
50. A. so B. besides C. again D. instead
〔解析〕用连词“But”,表示前文那位Russian scientist虽有说法,但无证据。由evidence可追寻到第二段的末尾“none has been produced as evidence”,可判断是“再次否定”,该用副词again。文章需要把前后所讲到的事物联系起来,因而必然用到各类篇章粘合手段,关联词的使用就是其一。
(七)、利用暗示和对应解题
高考完形填空题,虽然也穿插了对语法、短语和词的辨析、句子结构的考查等,但对文章故事情节发展线索的逻辑考查仍是重点。暗示与上下对应的思维方法,是突破此类完形填空最关键的思维方式。
【例】 Mr. Adamson enjoys playing the violin in his spare time. He is often carried away by his own 1 . But it is a 2 time for his neighbors when Mr. Adamson plays as he does so badly.
One day Mr. Adamson sat by a 3 and began to play the violin as usual. Mr. Adamson seemed to be making 4 instead of music. But he was so 5 that he almost forgot what he was doing. Just then, some stones were thrown out of the window under which Mr. Adamson was sitting...
1. A. violin B. music C. neighbors D. hands
2. A. terrible B. useless C. wonderful D. long
10
3. A. house B. door C. window D. wall
4. A. sound B. something C. noises D. voices
5. A. angry B. excited C. comfortable D. disappeared
〔解析〕先不要急于下手,应通过上下文找出相关的暗示。如原文中的划线部分均是有用的暗示。as he does so badly暗示他的音乐令邻居很痛苦,故第2空应选A;carried away by his own...暗示他总是自我陶醉,故第5空答案为B;instead of music 表明他弹出的不是音乐,而是noises,因为它使邻居terrible,故推出1、4两空的答案分别为B、C。而the window暗示了第3空的答案为C。
(八)、利用排除法解题
解答完形填空题需要进行认真的阅读、理解、推理和判断,需要对四个选项进行仔细的辨别、分析。有时会遇到这样的情况,对某个题目的正确选项的含义、用法不甚明白,但发现其他选项有显而易见的谬误。这时,可以尝试着用排除法。
【例】Should the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket, or turned over to the policeman? Should the 47 change received at the store be forgotten or returned? Nobody will know except you. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect.(NMET’96)
47. A. extra B. small C. some D. necessary
〔解析〕本题考查形容词的辨义。文中列举几个事例来说明我们每天都会做personal
11
decisions。本空缺就是一例:在商店购物时多找的change(即extra change)应当如何处理?如果对extra的用法和意义掌握不好,可用排除法选出正确答案。其中选项C、D与命题明显不符,所以容易排除。选项B干扰性极强,需认真考虑。small change意思是“零钱”,买东西找回零钱,为什么要忘记forgotten 或归还returned呢?明显逻辑不通,所以此处用small意思不妥,可以把B项排除。剩下的选项A自然就是本题的正确答案。
(九)、利用排比结构解题
试题命制者常从排比结构的句式相同或相似这一角度,利用其表现意义的关联或对比这一特点来设空。
【例】 Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework. They say that it is 51 for children to work at home in their free time. 52 , they argue that most teachers do not 53 plan the homework tasks they give to pupils. (’03春上海试题)
51. A. unnecessary unimportant
B. uninteresting C. unfortunate D.
52. A. Nevertheless B. However C. Therefore D. Moreover
53. A. considerably B. favorably C. properly D. pleasantly
〔解析〕该排比结构由Many people think that...They say that...they argue that...所组成。在意义上表现了人们(学生家长)对学生课业负担过重的抱怨。该结构中所设置
12
的三个空格的正确填入,要求考生首先把握结构所体现的“主题” —— 抱怨作业太多。其次,要求考生理解三句之间在表达意义上的递进关系。即:作业过多“too much homework”;所以,课余学生在家做作业是没必要的“unnecessary”;不仅如此,教师对作业的设计也不合适“not properly”。故答案分别为A,D,C。
(十)、利用词汇复现解题
完形填空试题中,某一词常常以原词、同义词或近义词、概括词以及其它形式重复出现在语篇之中。词汇复现的语用意义使得语篇中的句子相互衔接和连贯,从而构成一个完整和有机的意义整体。如:
【例】And the clerk confirmed that his plane was leaving at nine o’clock three days from that day...
Since he was 44 in three days, Andy didn’t’t lose anytime. (’03全国春季题)
44. A. moving B. returning C. staying D. leaving
〔解析〕可以很容易地找到设空部分的解题线索 ——上文的复现词汇leaving。故答案为D。
(十一)、利用对比结构解题
对比结构把两种对立的事物或同一事物的两个不同方面并列出来加以比较或对比。完形填空题常利用句子之间的对比关系或同一个句子的不同部分之间的对比关系设计题目。
13
【例】A pupil who can do his homework in a quiet and 59 room is in a much better position than a pupil who does his homework in a small, noisy room with the television on. (’03春季上海试题)
59. A. furnished B. expensive C. comfortable D. suitable
〔解析〕该题利用相似短语之间的对比关系来命题。设空部分与下文的a small, noisy room with the television on存在对比关系。作者想借此说明“相同的作业”对于“不同家庭背景的学生”所表现出的事实上的不公平。答案为C。

〔题型分析和解答〕
本题侧重训练词义辨析能力。第3,4,10,12,13,14题涉及词义辨析内容。本文通过一个具体的例子,说明了“发现就是成功之门”的道理。
1. D 要联系下文语境进行选择。后文提到乘客们百无聊赖地望着窗外,没有什么东西引起他们的兴趣,可以判定火车正行驶在一片荒无人烟的山野之中。
2. A 根据常识判断,乘客们正望着窗外。
3. C 拐弯的时候,火车通常会减速。slow down为“减速”之意;break down 为“出故障,垮下来”之意;turn down 为“拒绝,(声音)扭小”之意;put down“放下,记下”之意。
4. B come into view 为固定短语“进入视野”之意。come into being “产生,形成”; come into use “开始使用”;come into effect “开始生效”。
5. A 这座简陋的房子本身并不引人注目,但因背景太荒凉而使其凸现出来。against在此是“和……相比,以……作衬托”之意。
6. A 眼睛张开,当然是为了“欣赏”荒野中的这一奇特景观。
7. B even表示程度递进。
8. D 从后面我们知道,看到这一景观年轻人动了心,他受到了某种启发。
17
9. C 在返途中,他中途下车。
10.A find one’s way有“不辞劳苦找到”之意。way为普通用语,常可作比喻用法,有“方法,抽象的路”之意;path 指“小路”;road指通车宽广平坦的马路;means“方式,手段”。
11.D很显然,这里指的是那座房子的主人。
12.B房子主人饱受火车噪声之苦,早就想卖掉这座房子了。sound“声音”,一般用语; noise指“噪声”;voice特指“人的嗓音”。
13.A 但无人愿买。nobody为“泛指”;none (在特定范围内特定的)无人或物;nothing用于泛指物。
14.B pay...for “买……付款”之意。
15.A年轻人觉得这里做广告是再好不过的了。
16.D从后面的slow down可以看出,此处填bend最佳,前后存在因果关系。
17.A 根据常识判断,长时间坐车人容易疲劳。
18.C refresh oneself 是“使某人振作精神”的意思。看到这沙漠中的绿洲,疲惫的乘客精神为之一振,做广告的效果肯定不错。
19.B get access to意为“接近某人”之意。
18
20.D 前文有提示。

〔题型分析和解答〕
本题侧重训练在语篇中寻找前后暗示线索的能力。第4,6,8,9,10,11,12,15,17,19题涉及语境暗示内容。文章的第一句 Many television programmes are very realistic(许多电视节目非常逼真)为主题句。据此可推测出这是一个与看电视有关并且以假当真的故事。
1. B“经常看电视的人会感觉到……”。
2. C could well 为一习惯用法,表示“极可能”。
21
3. B imagination是不可数名词。
4. A a spy比较符合题意。因为只有恐怖片或间谍片才会使人产生这样的幻觉。后面watching a spy film有暗示。
5. D不定式作状语。
6. B 因为人多,所以她有安全感。前一句a lot of people traveling为暗示线索。
7. C 此句有谓语动词took, sitting和reading是并列平行结构,现在分词作定语,修饰a man。
8. C nothing ...until表示“直到……才”。后面的until为暗示线索。
9. B她想起了刚刚看到的那部间谍片。前面的a spy film 有暗示。
10.A那男子和她上了同一辆公共汽车。后一句she found that he was following her,暗示这位男子和她上的是同一辆公共汽车。
11.B后面the streets暗示她已下车。
12.B前面There were a lot of people traveling, so she felt much safer,为暗示线索。“只要与其他人在一起,她就不害怕”,此外语气有转折,所以,“当她下车时,街上几乎是空无一人”。
13.D固定搭配。
22
14.B她不敢回头看。注意:dare作情态动词有过去式。
15.CAfter what seemed to have been hours为暗示线索,故此处用a few minutes比较符合情理。
16.Dbecause 表示原因。她找不到钥匙的原因是因为她太害怕,太紧张了。
17.C后面的She felt a hand on her shoulder.为暗示线索,故可断定跟踪她的脚步停了下来,才能发生后面的事情。
18.Dpleasant “令人愉快的,舒适的”;由上下文推知,只有此项合题意。
19.CI frightened you是解题的暗示线索。这个男子因为无意识的举动吓坏了女孩子,所以向她表示歉意。
20.C这个男子在火车上就认出她来了。

My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with him!” Or “What perfect skills he has!” Yeah, I agree 1 some degree, though I sometimes do want to ask them how much they 2 Beckham, apart from his appearance and how much they know about football 3 scoring goals. It seems funny that we are crazy for things, with which we are unfamiliar or 4 we are uncertain, but we all, my friends 5 I, consider this 6.
23
We need these pleasures to brighten up our lives. But that doesn’t’t amount to craziness 7 nonsense(胡闹). As an old saying 8 : “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” We should not 9 anything from its appearance. We should all know, it is one’s good character and great contribution that 10 one a star and unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say 11 about Beckham’s good looks.

〔题型分析和解答〕
文章通过讲述“盲目追星”这一事例,阐明了“看问题不要只看表面,而要‘Go Deep’注重内涵”这一论点。近几年高考完形填空题偶尔采用这种体裁。这类短文常引用某一具体事例加以阐发,分析事物的发展方向,从而得出结论。本篇注重从词语搭配角度思考。第1、4、7、8、10、14、20题可从词语搭配角度获得解题线索。
1. A介词的固定搭配,“在某种程度上”。
2. D know about “了解”之意。从下文中也能找到相同的短语。
3. D apart from “除……外,还有……”,具有“附加性质”。 其他选项具有“排他性质”。从上文中也能找到相同的短语。
4. C此题为“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句,about 与be uncertain搭配。
5. B从上文中的we all判断,“不仅仅是我,还有我的朋友”。
26
6. A从结构上判断,此句含有宾语和宾补结构,宾语为this,后用单数。从下文的意义上判断,为“生活中的乐趣之一”。
7. C否定句中用or连接。“不要达到疯狂和胡闹的程度”。
8. D“正如俗语所说的”,四个选项都有“说”之意。 A. speaks“说语言,演讲”;B. talks “交谈”;C. tells“告诉”;如用says是正确的,题中的goes与says同义。
9. B judge...by... 或judge... from...“根据……判断”,从上句中能找到相同的意义。
10.A“是一个人好的品德和贡献才得以成为明星”。make 后接复合宾语。此句为强调句式。
11.D从上下文意义上判断,“在外貌上要少说”。
12.C从句子结构上分析,用现在分词形式作伴随状语。
13.A从句子结构上分析,此处为定语从句,that代替先行词things,所以谓语用复数形式,关系代词在从句中作主语,that 不能省略。
14.B此句的句子结构较复杂,主语是前面的the things ,此题要填谓语动词,由于主语和谓语之间有一个定语从句,造成了句子的复杂性。意为 “……有明确的意义”。
15.D 从意义上判断,“如果我们不注重内涵,满足于表面的东西,迟早会发现将一无所获”。
27
16.C从句子的连接上分析有“因果”关系。
17.C从意义上判断,“除非我们意识到这点并做某些改变,否则的话……”。
18.B从意义上判断,“更注重内涵是一个人进步(成熟)的象征”。
19.Bpains在此为及物动词,意为“费(苦)心”,这种意义与上下文是相通的。
20.D根据句子结构判断,应该用系动词。
