　　本篇完形填空很好地体现出重在考查语篇理解能力，且不在情节上、词汇考查大做文章的趋势。其中对于语篇的上下文复现考查非常之多，有一半左右的答案可以在上下文中找到。

　　语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，利用上下文寻找解题信息，确定正确答案。如：

　　I put my head in, expecting the worst. But to my surprise, the room wasn’t empty at all. It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the wall. And then on the well-made bed sat Amy, my new ___44___, dressed neatly.   

　　A. roommate    B. classmate    C. neighbor    D. companion  

　　【分析】名词同现，空格前出现了room, furniture, curtains, a TV等同现信息可知坐在铺好的床上的是＂我＂的室友。

　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议类文章。作者随丈夫去加利福尼亚的沙漠地带，百无聊赖之际，她感觉到了一种令人窒息的绝望。因此，她写信告诉父母，而父亲只回了两行字，这两行字使作者茅塞顿开。原来，世界的美在于自己看待世界的态度，而不是世界本身。21.C从上文提到的I went to live there以及下文的I hated the place可知，作者随丈夫搬去了加利福尼亚，故选near，表示＂靠近他＂，其他都与语意不符。 22.A从上下文可知，作者非常讨厌这个地方，所以她以前从来没有这么不开心过，用before＂以前＂，其他都不符合语意。 23.D从语境和下文的almost 125°F可知，这个地方实在是太热了，以至于让人难以忍受，故用unbearable＂难以忍受的＂。inflexible意为＂僵化的、不可弯曲的＂；incomprehensible意为＂不可思议的、难以理解的＂；uncontrollable意为＂难以控制的＂，都不符合语境。 24.B此处表示＂甚至没有一个可以讲话的人＂，故用Not。 25.B从上文提到的＂风不停地刮，所有吃的食物和呼吸的空气中都满是沙子＂可知，此处是be filled with结构，表示＂充满＂，其他都不符合语境。 26.C根据下文可知，作者感到很难过，所以写信告诉父母，她要放弃这里，准备回家了，所以用give up来表示＂放弃＂。catch up意为＂赶上＂；keep up意为＂保持＂；get up意为＂起床＂，都不符合语意。 27.C根据上下文可知，作者宁愿坐牢也不愿生活在这里。would rather表示＂宁愿……＂，符合语境。 28.D从上下文可知，作者给父母写了信，故此处指父亲回了信，故用answer the letter。 29.D从下文可知，对于这两行回信，作者这一辈子都会牢牢记住，同时下文也多次提到这封信对作者以后人生的影响，故根据语意选memory表示＂记忆＂。comparison表示＂比较＂；imagination表示＂想象＂；consideration表示＂考虑＂，都不符合语境。 30.A从全文可知，作者对父亲回信中的这两句话一读再读。所以选over and over表示＂一再、多次＂，来突出作者对其印象深刻。 31.C结合上下文可知，此时指作者决定要找出她当前处境中的＂优点＂所在——就像父亲信中所说的＂星星＂一样，所以用situation表示＂处境＂。 32.B从上文可知，作者与当地人交了朋友，而他们的＂反应＂也令她很吃惊，故用reaction，表示＂反应、回应＂。movement意为＂活动＂；guidance意为＂指导＂；purpose意为＂目的＂，都不符合语境。 33.A根据语境可知，当地人把一些他们最喜欢的、拒绝出售给游客的艺术品都当作礼物送给了作者，所以选refused。 34.B hunt for是固定词组，表示＂寻找、追寻＂，符合语境。 35.A结合34空可知，数百万年前，沙漠还是洋底，故选floor。 36.D从上下文可知，是什么让作者产生了令人吃惊的变化呢?此处astonishing表示＂令人吃惊的＂。 37.B根据语意可知，沙漠没有改变，但作者却变了，所以用but表示转折。 38.A从前文可知，变的不是周边的环境，而是作者的人生态度，故选attitude。 39.D根据语意可知，作者把这次不愉快的经历变成了人生中令人吃惊的冒险历程，所以选adventure表示＂冒险历程＂。 40.C根据全文可知，最终作者从自我的牢笼里挣脱了出来，发现了那些美丽的＂星星＂。【名师点睛】这篇文章是文，难度适中，这类文章首先要通读抓住故事发生的情节和作者想传达的中心思想。围绕主旨解答更有把握。故事内容体现了作者从父亲的简单的两行字中领悟到做人的道理。学生要抓住这个主题，而且这个主题贯穿整个文章。这个文章一个明显的特点是上下文之间的联系非常紧密。做题时要牢记上下文的关联对解题会很有帮助。

　　做题时要结合完形填空的特点，完形填空题有的考查词语同现、词语复现，有的则是要运用逻辑推理能力，领会和掌握解题策略对提高完形填空的解题速度和准确率大有裨益。

　　1. 上下文串联和语境暗示。

　　这篇完型填空里面出现词语同现的很少，但是词语复现不少，就是指某一个词以原词、同根词、同义词、反义词等方式重复出现在语篇中，语篇中的句子通过这种复现关系达到相互衔接。像这篇完型的23题用unbearable，因为下文明显出现了almost 125F，还有28题，上文的I wrote to my parents暗示这里是letter。40题是和上文的look for信息词对应的，都是属于这种类型。

　　2. 逻辑推理。

　　逻辑推理是通过对句子间和上下文之间逻辑关系的理解从而推断出正确答案。其中逻辑关系主要包括因果关系、转折关系、对比关系、并列关系等。逻辑推理题需要考生对上下文的理解全面把握，难度较大，考生不能将句子独立开，要注意一个句群，一个段落的整体理解。这篇文章逻辑推理的题较多。如24题，根据上文a desert和alone，可知这里用not合适；37题主要是上下文的逻辑关系，上文hadn’t changed和下文changed是转折关系。

　　3.固定搭配。

　　有的题目单单从四个选项不能看出差别，需要和横线的前后搭配，形成固定短语才能判断，如34题使用hunt for这个词组。【】与一位励志大师的邂逅，使作者认识到人生应该有成长计划，由此他拥有了幸福的人生。.D根据上文中的＂breakfast＂可知，应选择eating， 表示他们在一起吃饭。.C根据下文中的＂You don’t have a personal plan for growth＂可知本题选择plan，表示个人成长计划。.D作者听到问题后竭力寻找能够回答问题的答案，qualify＂符合，配得上＂，符合句意。.A (be)involved (in)＂参加＂，符合句意。.B根据下文的＂I must have talked for ten minutes＂可知作者滔滔不绝地说了起来，就像是在演讲，因此选择speech。.B Kurt耐心地听着，因此选择listened。.D听完之后，Kurt终于发表了自己的看法。finally符合句意。.A根据作者的答语＂No＂可知，作者同意Kurt的说法，承认自己没有这样的成长计划。因此选择admitted。.A根据文章内容可知，成长不是一个自发的过程，而是需要计划的，因此本题选择automatic。.D根据本段的内容可知，作者此时领悟到了Kurt所说的话。hit表示＂使突然想起＂。.B本句的意思是作者以前一直没有有目的地去让自己更好地成长。on purpose＂有意地＂，符合句意。.C根据句中的＂I will develop and follow a personal growth plan...＂可知作者此刻作了决定，因此选择decision。.A根据下文可知，作者制订了人生成长计划，因此选择life。.B根据上文可知选择conversation，作者把他与Kurt之间的谈话告诉了妻子。.C作者向妻子展示了Kurt出售的书和磁带，因此选择showed。.C作者与妻子认为Kurt不仅仅是在销售东西。recognize＂承认，意识到＂，符合句意。.C Kurt给我们指明了一条改变我们生活、实现我们梦想的道路。way＂方法，途径＂，后面常用不定式作后置定语。.B根据上文的＂was selling＂可知本题选择buy。 .A此处表示与妻子一起成长，故选择grow。.D根据最后一句可知他们的决定是明智的，因此选择wise。【名师点睛】

　　完形填空的首句往往开宗明义，是文章的主题。细读首句可启示全文。而尾句又往往是对文章主题的总结。所以，它们是了解文章大意的一个窗口，对我们理解全文有着重要的启示作用。因此，要充分利用段首句提供的信息，去挖掘文章的思路，寻找文章的脉络与线索。一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句通常是不挖空的。先跳读这两句，便可判断体裁，猜想它要讲什么。若首句交代了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；

　　以本文为例，作者在前两句中提及到时间：years ago，for breakfast；人物：I、Kurt说明叙述的是多年之前在吃早饭的时候，我和Kurt进行的一番对话。

　　另外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。习惯用法是英语中某种固定的结构形态，即所谓的＂习语＂，不能随意改动。所以，考生平时应掌握好习惯用法。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。本文【小题38、39、46】均为词汇知识的辨析。

　　同时我们利用复现信息解题。语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，利用上下文寻找解题信息，确定正确答案。【语篇解读】小时候身患重病，经过多年的治疗后最终康复的作者的女儿下决心成为一名游泳健将，艰苦的训练和不尽如人意的成绩并没有使她退缩，最终她的意志力以及热情使她获得了最高的荣誉。.D根据下句话＂After years of regular treatment， she 　 　 became healthy＂可知，Cathy小时候身患重病(illness)。 .B根据前半句＂After years of regular treatment＂可推知，Cathy最终(finally)康复了。.C根据空后的＂our local swim team＂可知，此处表示她想加入我们当地的游泳队，故应用join表示＂加入＂。.D根据下文的内容可知，此处指女儿最终成功地加入了游泳队。make it表示＂获得成功＂，为固定用法。 20.A前句讲到作者的女儿最终成功加入了游泳队，后文则提及游泳练习很艰苦，前后句之间为转折关系，故应用however＂然而＂。therefore＂因此＂;otherwise＂否则＂;instead＂代替＂。 21.B根据上文可知，此处指作者的女儿在刚加入游泳队的前几周里几乎不能挺过来(survive)。 22.A根据上下文的语境可知，此处指听到女儿咳嗽得厉害，作者决定把女儿从游泳队里拉(pull)出来，即作者不想让女儿继续参加游泳队的训练了。 23.C根据上文的＂wearing her swimsuit＂可知，作者的女儿穿着泳装做好去游泳的准备了。(be) ready to do sth.＂准备好做某事＂。 24.C根据上文的＂I told her...but she refused to＂和下文的＂and insisted she go＂可知，此处应用give up，表示作者的女儿拒绝放弃游泳。.B根据上文的＂kept swimming＂可知，此处指作者的女儿没有错过(miss)一次训练。attend＂参加＂ban＂禁止＂start＂开始＂。.C根据上文的内容可知，此处指作者的女儿内心有一个成为最好的自己的坚定的(firm)目标。rich＂丰富的＂weak＂虚弱的＂kind＂善良的＂。.B根据上文，尤其是第四段的首句可知，作者的女儿的意志力很坚定。determined＂意志坚定的＂符合语境。trusted＂受信任的＂experienced＂有经验的＂embarrassed＂窘迫的＂。.A由下文的＂often she would be the last swimmer in the race＂可推知，作者的女儿的游泳之路不是一帆风顺的，经常会有沮丧(frustration)的时刻。 .D根据上文可知，此处指作者的女儿虽然经常是最后一名，但要她接受自己不曾成为获胜者(winner)是很困难的。 30.A根据下文的＂praise their accomplishments＂可知，此处指在决赛颁奖仪式上，虽然作者的女儿不指望自己获得任何奖项，但她仍然待在那儿为朋友们加油(cheer on)。compete with＂和某人竞争＂respond to＂对……作出回应＂run after＂追赶＂。 31.C根据语境可知，主教练是在宣布获奖名单，故应选announce＂宣布，宣告＂。 32.B本篇文章以Cathy的决心和毅力为主线引领全文，故应用will＂意志力＂，指Cathy用她的意志力和热情激励着我们。33.A尽管技巧和天赋能带来巨大的成功，然而一个人拥有的最有价值的财富是内心。本句前后两部分为让步关系，故应填Although。 34.D此处指这是作者女儿生命中最重要的时刻，故应用moment。下文中的＂the hour＂也是提示。.A十年来她所经历的一切中，这是她真正成功的时刻。through＂经过(全部的过程或经历)＂，符合语境。

　　【语篇解读】讲述作者大学毕业后在工作和生活体验中理解了成功的真正含义，指出＂物质上的成功和享受并不代表精神的富足和幸福＂这一价值趋向。

　　21.D文章开头提到:作者从哈佛和牛津毕业后，看到一个个朋友高官厚禄，事业有成，再根据空后的＂on their way to impressive careers＂可知应选D。well＂顺利地，令人满意地＂。 2.B根据第一段的描述可知，按照社会的标准来看，他们似乎成功了。standard＂标准＂，符合语境。 23.A从上文中的＂As they left student life behind＂可知， 这是他们在这个便宜但友好的当地酒吧的最后(last)一杯。故选A。 4.B第二段主要讲这些表面看似幸运的人在生活上的一些变化，因此此处表示从小公寓里搬(moved)出，搬进高楼里。5.C这些人预订饭店，那里一瓶酒的费用相当于大学里的月租金。equal＂(在大小、数字、数量上)等于＂，符合语境。 26.C根据空后的＂despite their success， they aren’t happy＂可知，他们中的许多人承认(admitted)尽管他们成功，但他们不快乐。 7.A根据空后的＂of unfriendly coworkers and feel sad for eight-hour workweeks devoted to tasks＂可知，complain＂抱怨＂，符合语境。 8.B从上文中的＂feel sad for＂可知，空前的tasks是他们不喜欢的。A项意为＂(尤指有计划地)分发，分配＂； B项意为＂不喜欢，讨厌＂；C项意为＂(为)鼓掌＂； D项意为＂忽略，忽视＂。因此选B。 9.D根据上文中的＂Some do not respect the companies they work for and talk of feeling tired and 　9　＂可知，他们不尊重他们的公司，并且他们感觉累和空虚。 根据语境可知，空处与＂tired＂并列，故empty＂寂寥的，空虚的＂，符合语境。 30.C然而，他们并没有投入到他们的工作，他们发现他们工作只是为了维持一种他们很快已经适应了的生活模式。 31.A参见上题解析。A项意为＂习惯的＂； B项意为＂指定的＂； C项意为＂独特的，独一无二的＂；D项意为＂可用的，可获得的＂。故A项符合语境。 32.A根据上文中的＂People often... path＂和下文中的＂the idea of leaving their jobs to work for something...leads them to the same conclusion...＂可知，人们经常说想尝试一份更满意的工作，但这种想法最终都落下同样的结局。 因此此处选yet＂但是，然而＂表示转折。 33.D根据上文中的＂leaving their jobs to work for...＂可知，他们离开原来的工作是想做他们认为更加满意的工作。A项意为＂泄露(消息、秘密等)，透露＂； B项意为＂上交＂； C项意为＂放弃＂； D项意为＂认为某事好(或对、可接受)，信任，信赖＂。所以D项符合语境。 34.C下文中提到他们有借款、账单，要还清抵押贷款和为退休存钱，所以，要实现他们前面的想法是不可能的。impossible＂不可能的＂，符合语境。 35.D此处表示有抵押贷款需要还清，所以选D。pay off＂付清(还清)债务＂。6.A他们承认他们这样的生活有所缺失，但是从这种模式中走出来却又很难。 A项意为＂丢失的＂；B项意为＂鼓舞人心的＂；C项意为＂下沉的＂； D项意为＂明亮的，闪光的＂。故选A。 7.B参见上题解析。hard＂困难的，不易的＂，符合语境。8.A在一个趋向于以金钱来衡量一切的社会，我们从小就知道从金钱的角度来考虑我们的决定。measure意为＂衡量，测量＂，符合语境。39.D A项意为＂灾难＂； B项意为＂动机＂； C项意为＂运动，活动＂； D项意为＂决定＂。此处表示我们从小就知道从金钱的角度来考虑我们的决定，所以选D。 

　　40.B根据下文中的＂These are...to consider most＂可知，那正是我们许多人忽视的价值，正是我们最需要考虑的价值。所以，此处选involved，＂be involved in ...＂意为＂涉及……＂。此处意为:追求金钱至上，那么与此同时的个人和社会价值呢?

　　【语篇解读】文章主要讲的是堆积如山的垃圾给环境带来的威胁。随着社会的发展，人们倾向于扔掉用旧物，用新物品取而代之。包装盒等一次性产品给人们带来方便的同时，也给环境带来很大的压力。

　　36.D根据第一段末句中的＂because people ... than ever before＂可知这里描述的是一种世界各国正在面临的问题(problem)。.B根据空格后的原因状语从句＂because people are throwing out more rubbish than ever before＂可知答案。.B文章第二段、第三段和第四段分析了我们变成一次性物品充斥的社会的原因。由此可知此句是总领性的句子——我们是怎样变成一次性物品充斥的社会的。 39.C因为此文谈及的是一次性物品充斥的社会。在一次性物品充斥的社会中，和花时间与金钱修理东西相比，更换一个东西当然要更容易些。hide＂隐藏＂；control＂控制＂；replace＂取代＂；withdraw＂提取＂。.A由于现代制造业和技术，公司可以更快地、更加低成本地生产东西。thanks to＂幸亏，由于＂。 .C由上一句中的＂produce products quickly and inexpensively＂可知，产品应该是充足的和便宜的。故此空应填cheap。.A由第三段可知，人们喜爱一次性产品是因为它可以节约时间，使人们的生活更轻松。这里表明人们对一次性产品的喜爱是另外一个原因。prevention＂预防＂； division＂分开，分隔＂。.D为什么要节约时间?是因为人们比较忙。busy＂忙碌的＂，符合语境。 44.A忙碌的我们总是寻找节省时间的方法，故选ways。 .C公司生产许多不同种类的一次性产品。根据前句的语境可知此处表示生产(produce)一次性产品。donate＂捐赠＂；preserve＂保护＂。.D 由本段内容可知，我们对新产品的强烈欲望也会引起这个问题。adapt to＂适应＂；return to＂返回＂；respond to＂对……作出反应＂；contribute to＂是……的原因之一＂。 .B根据前句＂我们对新产品的强烈欲望也会引起这个问题＂，以及后句中的＂we will be happier with the latest products＂推理可知此处应选B，be addicted to＂对上瘾＂。 .A 根据空后的＂we will be happier with the latest products＂可知此处表示＂越新越好＂。 .D

　　make room for new ones意为＂为新东西腾出空间＂，那么如何为新东西腾出空间呢?当然是通过throw away＂扔掉＂。.D 根据后句＂Mountains of rubbish just keep getting bigger＂可知此处指的是＂这种抛弃型的生活方式造成的后果＂。 advantage＂优点＂；purpose＂目的＂；function＂功能＂；consequence＂结果，后果＂。.C 根据后文中的＂more governments are requiring people to recycle materials＂和文章最后一句中的＂...to reduce the amount of rubbish and take care of our environment＂可知，人们回收资源的目的是减少垃圾的数量和保护环境。decrease＂减少＂，符合语境。 52.B 参见上题解析。 53.A 根据下一段内容以及空格后的＂this is not enough to solve (解决) our problem＂推理可知空格前后应为转折关系，故选择However。.D 维修东西和扔掉它们是对立的概念，因此选择instead of＂而不是＂。in favour of＂支持＂。 55.A 根据前句中的＂to repair our possessions 　54　 throwing them away＂以及后句中的＂Repairing our possessions and changing our spending habits...＂ 可知选A。
