資源簡介 (共234張PPT)第三章 完形填空【題型分解】該題型共15小題,共30分。在一篇短文中留有15個空白處,要求考生從所給的選擇項中選出能填入空白處的最佳答案,使補全后的短文意思通順、結構完整。這是一種綜合性的閱讀測試題,主要測試學生的英語知識和技能的綜合能力。它主要考查我們的閱讀理解能力、邏輯推理能力、綜合判斷能力以及對詞匯、語法、句型等知識點的運用能力。完形填空主要集中在詞匯、語法、習慣用法、詞義的判斷檢測能力和對文章上下文及全文的理解上,文章內容多半是故事、寓言、說明文、科普文章等,內容短小精悍,但涉及面廣、靈活性強。它以實詞為主、虛詞為輔;單詞為主、短語為輔。動詞、名詞、形容詞、副詞、代詞等實詞通常要占80%以上。而介詞、連詞、冠詞等虛詞則相對考得較少。完形填空涉及的知識面廣、綜合性強、靈活性高。它不僅能反映學生的語言水平,而且還能反映學生的閱讀理解能力、綜合運用英語知識的能力以及邏輯推理和分析判斷能力。完形填空題主要考查:1.詞義辨析。區(qū)分同義詞、近義詞或拼寫形式相近的詞或短語。2.固定搭配。習慣用語或固定短語。3.語法結構。分析句子的語法結構。4.文章的銜接及推理。【方法指導】1.通覽——快速閱讀全文,把握大意越過空白處快速通讀一遍全文,通過通覽全文、領會大意,概略地了解文章的體裁、背景、內容、結構層次、情節(jié)、寫作風格等等。了解文章的大體意思;同時對空格內應填什么詞作試探性的猜測,為下一步選擇答案做好準備、打好基礎。在通讀全文的過程中,要特別重視首句。完形填空短文的第一句一般是完整的,這就給考生提供了語言背景,使考生有據(jù)可循。仔細琢磨短文首句對于了解全文、確立思路、了解全文的邏輯聯(lián)系都是十分重要的。2.試填——緊扣文意,瞻前顧后掌握了文章的大意后,便可著手答題。答題時要從頭逐句細讀,仔細分析,選取語法上正確、文意上貼切的詞語。在這一過程中,一定要前后參照、上下聯(lián)系,切忌單憑語法規(guī)律草率選擇。先易后難,逐層深入。緊扣全文內容,聯(lián)系上下文和語境,展開邏輯推理。注意從上下文中尋找線索,注意從詞匯的意義、搭配、習慣用法、語法、常識等多個角度進行綜合考慮。在理解了文章大意的基礎上,再逐步推敲選擇正確答案。在選擇各選項時,應始終牢記全文大意,不可孤立解題。確定答案時,應注意以下幾點:(1)注意固定搭配。這一類型的題盡管很少,但時有出現(xiàn),不可忽視。(2)判斷句子結構。有的小題可從英語句子結構來確定選項,此類題所占比例亦很少。(3)注意句子間的關系。根據(jù)句與句之間的邏輯關系,可以確定部分小題的選項。(4)注意段落間的聯(lián)系。注意段與段之間的邏輯聯(lián)系,有助于最佳答案的確定。(5)揣摩命題者意圖。從所選短文、句中抽去的詞匯、每小題所給的選項,揣摩命題者的意圖和傾向,識別所設“陷阱”,確定最佳答案。(6)重視主題句。主題句揭示該段落的主題,可根據(jù)主題句掌握全段中心思想。經過推理判斷,便可確定與主題句有關的選項。(7)切忌草率定論。完形填空題看似簡單,實則頗難,隨時都可能碰到“陷阱”。在選擇時,A,B,C,D四個選項都須仔細看清,反復推敲,方能確定最佳答案。草率定論,十有八九會誤入“陷阱”。3.復核——全面檢查,確保語意連貫,用詞準確對于較難的空格需多方面推敲分析。例如可從詞語角度、語法角度、習慣用法角度、常識角度、上下文角度等多方面進行分析,反復斟酌,應把選好的答案放入文中通讀一遍,看看讀起來是否通順,語法結構和詞語搭配關系是否一致;是否符合英語的表達習慣;是否符合英美的文化習俗等等。試填后,要把全文再通讀一遍,注意看所選答案填入空白處后能否做到文章意思通順、前后連貫、邏輯嚴謹、結構完整、首尾呼應。核對這一步也是重要而且必要的一步。核對是理解的進一步深化,是對原文內容進一步推敲的階段。通過核對,及時發(fā)現(xiàn)錯誤、及時糾正,對于實在拿不準的地方,不可輕易改變初衷,因為有些答案自己雖說不出道理,在感覺上好像應該用某一詞,這種憑語感選取的答案正確性可能要大一些。(1)意思是否通順。確定一個答案是否正確的第一個標準就是要看它是否符合意思表達上的需要。主要看它能否滿足下面三個條件:①放在原句中能否使該句意思通順。②符合上下文或該段的表達需要。③與全文整體意思一致。(2)結構是否正確。正確的答案必須是通順的意思和正確的表達形式的高度統(tǒng)一,按照一個完整句子必須具有的結構和各種句法要求去處理供選答案,逐一排除不符合要求、有明顯語法錯誤的答案,直至選出正確答案。(3)是否符合習慣表達。每一個民族語言都有它獨特的或慣用的表達方式。所以符合了上面兩條標準的答案也不一定就是正確答案,最后還要看一看它是否符合英語的習慣表達和固定搭配。【例】 One afternoon I was sitting at my favorite table in a restaurant,waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive.Suddenly I 1 that a man sitting at a table near the window kept glancing in my direction, 2 he knew me.The man had a newspaper open in front of him,which he was 3 to read,but I could see that he was keeping an eye on me.When the waiter brought my food the man was clearly puzzled(困惑) by the 4 way in which the waiter and I 5 each other.He seemed even more puzzled as the dinner went on and it became 6 that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me.Finally he got up and went into the 7 .When he came out,he paid his bill and 8 without another glance in my direction.
