高考英语复习完形填空：讲练解析11

　　高考二轮专题复习——完形填空when, where, who, what,即四个W，那么就是记叙文，很可能就是一个故事，为了测试语篇的理解能力，出题者特别注意选材的趣味性，其结尾往往出人意料，耐人寻味；若首句是提出或解释说明某事物，一般来说是说明文；若首句提出一个论点，那么就是议论文。　

　　第二步：通读全文，把握大意。

　　做完形填空时要注意文章开头提示句的点题作用和短文中完整句的启示作用。首先要快速浏览全文，弄清各段落之间，各层次之间的内在联系，把握文章的完整性。只有这样才符合这种题型的解题思路。

　　第三步： 逐句细读，确定选项。

　　大致把握了全文的大意和作者的意图之后，就可以根据上下文，选取与文意最贴切的选项。此时，应遵循先易后难的原则，对有把握的选项“一锤定音”。对没有把握的选项不妨先放一放，接着往下看，往往会出现“柳暗花明”的情况。

　　第四步：再次阅读，复查答案。

　　复查时从意义和语法两个角度考虑，着眼于全篇。特别注意的是，我们所选的是“最佳”选项而不是“正确”答案。

　　具体操作中应注意的问题

　　1. 看清上下文，找准定位词

　　充分利用文章的上下文和前后句，找到对选择有提示作用的词或句。这些词有时可能是同义词或反义词。例如：

　　1) Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in some places it is very ＿＿＿＿＿.

　　A. deep

　　B. high

　　C. cold

　　D. dangerous

　　根据转折连词but的提示，所填入的词应与shallow相反，因此答案为A。

　　2) Mrs O’Neill asked＿＿＿＿＿questions and she didn’t scold us either.

　　A. no

　　B. certain

　　C. many

　　D. more

　　and是一个并列连词；either为副词，用在否定句或否定词后加强语势，由此可以确定所填的词也应是一个否定意义的词，因此答案是A。

　　2. 理顺逻辑，寻求搭配

　　注意固定的搭配，包括动词与介词的搭配、动词与名词的搭配以及形容词与名词的搭配等，同时要根据内容选择正确的短语。例如：

　　Here’s a fellow who just walked into a bank and helped himself＿＿＿＿＿so much money.

　　A. for

　　B. by

　　C. to

　　D. of

　　表示“自取，随便拿”这个意义的短语是help oneself to…故答案为C。

　　3. 扎实基础，搞清辨异

　　Soon I heard a＿＿＿＿＿like that of a door burst in and then a climb of feet.

　　A. sound

　　B. cry

　　C. voice

　　D. shout

　　选项中的四个词都表示不同的声音，但B，C，D项的三个词都是指从嗓子里发出的声音，而sound则表示各种各样的声音。因此答案是A。

　　4. 看清执行者，确定所选词

　　And video cameras can be used to＿＿＿＿＿people’s actions at home.

　　A. keep

　　B. make

　　C. record

　　D. watch

　　句中动作的发出者是video cameras因此答案是C，意思是“记录”。

　　5. 寻求上下逻辑，从容确定关系

　　It has been many years since I was last in London＿＿＿＿＿I still remember something that happened during that visit.

　　A. and

　　B. for

　　C. but

　　D. as

　　根据句前的many years和句后的still remember答案应选表示转折的连词but.

　　6. 了解生活常识，确定相关知识

　　Immediately the officers jumped into their cars and rushed to the＿＿＿＿＿hospital.

　　A. animal

　　B. biggest

　　C. plant

　　D. nearest

　　在这样的紧急情况下，人们的第一个反应是到最近的医院就医，因此答案为D

　　典型例题

　　（2002·北京）

　　As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

　　Maybe it was the strange

　　36

　　things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that

　　37

　　me so much. There was never total

　　38

　　, but a streetlight or passing car lights

　　39

　　clothes hung over a chair take on the

　　40

　　of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my

　　41

　　, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no

　　_42

　　. A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My

　　43

　　would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would

　　44

　　very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.

　　Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost,

　　45

　　on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home — that was no

　　46

　　. After school,

　　47

　　, when all the buses were

　　49

　　neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't

　　50

　　the leaders out of my sight.

　　Perhaps one of the worst fears

　　51

　　all I had as a child was that of not being liked or

　　52

　　by others. Being popular was so important to me

　　53

　　, and the fear of not being liked was a

　　54

　　one.

　　One of the processes (过程) of growing up is being able to

　　（解析）

　　从短文的第一段可以知道该短文的主要话题是有关作者孩提时代对黑暗及被丢失的恐惧。

　　第2自然段的第一句在结构上是一个含有一个定语从句的强调句，被强调句的主干可以理解为“ __36 _

　　__37_

　　me so much”。 第36空是被强调部分，在被强调的句子中充当主语，其后是一个定语从句；第37空是被强调句的谓语动词。该段后面描述的都是作者孩提时代在夜晚对一些物体的投影及声音的奇怪的表现方式的恐惧感，再结合第1自然段所表现的主题，我们可以肯定第36、37两空分别应该选way及frightened；

　　第38空后面表示转折的并列句是对街灯及过往车灯在房间留下的投影的描述，因此可以断定第38空应该选darkness，因为其它选项与后面的描述无关；

　　第39空考察的是动宾搭配，因为只有make才能跟省to不定式结构做宾语补足语，而其它三个动词都只能跟不省to的动词不定式做宾语补足语，因此该空只能选made；

　　根据常识可以知道第40空指的是从窗户透进的街灯及过往的车灯照到挂在椅子上的衣服后投射到墙上的各种奇形怪状的影子，因此该空只能选shape；

　　第41空的C、D两个选项与句子的意思完全无关，不需考虑；咋一看，B选项似乎可以，但是 “out of”是“从……朝外”的意思，而窗帘是在房间里面，因此也不合句意，所以，只能选A。“out of the corner of one’s eye”的意思是“斜视”，表现了作者欲看不敢的恐惧心理，符合文段的主题；

　　第42空只能选wind。因为在一般情况下，只有在有风的时候窗帘才回动，但现在房间里面没有风，但窗帘却似乎在动，作者害怕是房间里的野动物使窗帘动了起来，所以才产生恐惧感，该选项符合该段的意思及文段的主题；

　　第43空的选择要注意该选项与它前后两个句子之间的联系。由于晚上环境安静，即便很小的一点声音，听起来也会觉得很大，而由于作者心里非常害怕，因此就会没有节制地胡思乱想，即，“My imagination would ran wild”。该空选择imagination，既符合短文的主题，也符合孩子的心理特点；

　　第44空的选择既要注意上下文的联系，也要注意词义区别。从上下文的联系来看，“我”本来就是躺在床上睡觉，因此没有必要选“hide”或“rest”；此外，hide是表示动作，而根据文意来看，作者是不敢动，因为他害怕一动就会被“敌人”发现，所以他就躺在那一动也不敢动；lay是过去时，不合适，因此，只能选lie.

　　第45空也是既要注意词义区别，也要注意上下文的联系。作者在第2自然段讲的是对黑夜的恐惧，在第3自然段讲到怕被丢失的恐惧，并特别强调这种感觉在从学校回家的路上尤其强烈，因为上学时是在家门口上车，然后直接到学校，不会有那种怕被丢失的感觉，而从学校到其它地方时，他/她则会紧紧盯着领头的人，那种感觉也不会那么强烈；

　　第46空主要考察的是固定搭配的用法，因为其它三个选项与上下文没有任何联系。no problem的意思是“没问题”，即：在家里去学校的路上不担心被丢失。

　　第47空是考察词义区别。在该句中though是副词，象though用作连词一样，表示转折关系，但它用作副词时表示的是它与前面那个句子间的转折关系，即相当于“Though every morning I got on the school bus right near my home — that was no problem, after school, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one and be taken to some unfamiliar neighborhood.” Yet也可以表示转折的意思，但它是用作连词，要放在被连接句子的前面，例如：It is strange, yet (it is) true.

　　第 48空主要考察的是动词与副词的搭配用法。line up：排成一列，即到学校接学生的车子排成一列。其它动词与语境没有任何关系。

　　第49空主要考察的是语境的联系。因为该段主要讲的是作者在从学校回家的路上怕被丢失的恐惧感，因此旧、贫穷、拥挤与这种感觉没有任何关系，只有在不熟悉的地方才会有这种感觉。

　　第50空主要考察的是词义区别。该句的意思是：作者在从学校或家里去公园或博物馆的路上会紧紧盯者领路的人，不会让他们从视野里消失。因此order与send显然不合适；leave与let都可以跟介词短语做宾语补足语，表示“让某人/某物处于某种状态”，但leave指的是顺其自然或不小心地“让某人/某物处于某种状态”，而let则是指故意地、有目的地“让某人/某物处于某种状态”，因此只有let符合该句的意思。

　　在考虑第51空的选项时，既要考虑句子的结构和介词短语的搭配，也要考虑句子的意思及逻辑关系。这一组选项中的每个词都可以与all搭配在一起，但above all是强调重要性和优先考虑的因素，而one of the worst fears表示的是“其中之一”的意思，即表示的是并列关系，因此，在概念上互相矛盾；in all是总共、总计的意思，表示数量，与该句的意思无关；at all是加强语气，常常用在疑问、否定或条件句中，而这是肯定句，也不合适；of all表示的是部分与整体的关系，即：one of worst fears of all fears，在意思、结构上都符合语境，因此，是正确选项。

　　第52空考察的是对语境的理解。在这一段中作者主要讲述的是小时侯担心自己不被别人喜欢，文中用到的两个词like、popular都是近似的意思，中间的第52空只有选accept才能与前后文在意思上保持一致，因为担心不被别人所喜欢与担心不被别人所接受是同一意思的不同表达方式。

　　第53空也是考察对上下文的联系和对语境的理解。once与anyway都有干扰作用，但once表示“曾经”的意思时可以指过去的任何时候，不一定只是孩提时代；而then却是明确地表示孩提时代，即前面提到的“as a child”；anyway的意思是 “in spite of everything”， 即“无论如何”，“在任何情况下”，起强调作用，即特别强调“Being popular was so important to me”的唯一性，但“one of the worst fears of all”是把它作为并列因素提出来的，而不是特别强调，因此，与上下文的意思不一致，所以then是最佳选择。

　　第54空考察的是词义搭配。fear是一种感觉，用strict、heavy及right修饰都不合适，只有powerful可以修饰表示情感的强弱或影响力，因此，只有它才是这一空的合适选项。

　　第55空是从逻辑关系上考察词义区别。该题的最大干扰项是realize。虽然realize与fears也能构成动宾关系，但是realize、recognize、overcome三者之间的逻辑关系应该是首先realize，然后recognize，最后才是overcome，因此，在动作过程的顺序方面，recognize 与overcome的逻辑关系比realize与overcome的逻辑关系更密切，所以是最佳选项。

　　精析精练

　　由下文的“天空和海洋”，结合上文的“草、树、叶”可知，此处指“陆地”。

　　3. C

　　此处是一个强调句型：It be +被强调部分+that从句。

　　4. B

　　此处与第一段的最后一句有异曲同工的作用，意为“没有我，你们全都没有”。

　　此选项应与前面的laughter, fun一样表示积极向上的词，而sadness，depression，anxiety都表示“消极”的意义。

　　16. D

　　由for a special purpose可知，各种颜色都有自己的特殊用途，它们各自的特点是其它颜色没有的，因此用unique and different来表示“独特的和与众不同的”。

　　17. C

　　此处表示三者以上的“互相，彼此”，要用one another。

　　18. C

　　由下文joined hands可知，颜色们联合起来，团结在一起。

　　19. B
