【课前检测】 Leonardo da Vinci's(达芬奇) mother may have been a Chinese slave(奴隶) according to a new research by an Italian -Angelo Paratico. He has spent the last 20 years living and working in Hong Kong, researching the links(联系) b 1 his homeland and China. It is believed that Leonardo da Vinci's mother was named Caterina, who, according to some reports, was a local farmer. But Mr. Paratico's new work leads to a d 2 explanation. Speaking to the South China Morning Post, Mr. Paratico said, “I am s 3 that Leonardo's mother was from the East, but to make her a Chinese, we need to use a deductive method (演绎法).” Angerlo Paratico has s 4 many documents(文献). He found that one wealthy friend of Leonardo's father’s had a slave called Caterina. After Leonardo's date of b 5 , she disappeared from the documents. “She was no longer working there and could not be found,” Paratico a 6 . Supporting his opinion, he said, “During the period, countries like Italy and Spain were f 7 of slaves from the East.” He said that there were certain aspects(方面) of Da Vinci's life and works which suggest a Chinese link. An e 8 is that he was writing with his left hand from left to right. And he was a vegetarian(素食者), which was not common. Mona Lisa(蒙娜丽莎) is probably a picture of his mother. On the back of Mona Lisa, there is a Chinese landscape and e 9 her face looks Chinese. Mr. Paratico said the only way to s 10 the mystery is to extract(提取) some DNA. But he said he preferred to let the mystery to remain mysterious. 【课堂导学】 首字母的解题技巧,你掌握多少呢? 【知识点梳理】 【知识梳理1】 一、解题步骤 1. 通读短文,了解大意; (柯南之纵观整个案情) 没有了选项,只给了首字母,这样便给我们读懂文意设置了更大的障碍。因此,我们在做题时,一定要先掌握文章的中心大意。这便要求同学们通过通读文章,对文章的内容有一个整体的了解,从中获取文章的基本结构、体裁、主题及所使用的时态等相关信息。这就为我们解题打下了基础。 2. 分析空缺,瞻前顾后,掌握变化;(柯南之细节考究,真相只有一个) 在理解全文意思的基础上,结合文章内容和所给首字母提示,对空缺句子作合乎逻辑的推理。 首先,可填出诸如习惯表达、固定结构等较为简单的空缺处。 其次,根据空缺处所在句子的位置,前后词语的关系以及该句的结构判断出该空应填词是何种词。接下来,就要确定各词形变化、时态、语态了。 1)如果是名词,应注意其数的变化及格的变化; 2)如果是动词,需注意根据其在句中的语法功能确定其正确的时态、语态及非谓语动词形式;如果是形容词、副词,要注意其级的变化; 3)如果是代词,要注意其主格与宾格、形容词性与名词性物主代词、反身代词等的变化; 4)如果是连词,要注意其在并列句、状语从句、宾语从句中的用法等。 3. 反复推敲,攻克难点(柯南之不到最后关头,就决不放弃) 做这类题时,往往不是一帆风顺,总会有几个空难以确定答案。遇到这种情况时,根据上下文意思,仔细研读空格处词句及其前后句。如果还做不出来的话,要改变一些思路。实词与文章的内容直接相关,虚词与文章意思的连贯直接相关。如果从内容上实在看不出要填哪个单词的话,应考虑是否要填介词、连词等,并从首字母的提示入手,多试一些可能的单词,最终一定会豁然开朗,得出满意的结果。 4.复原阅读,仔细检查,确定答案(柯南之不能慌,人是不可以逆转时间的) 填完所有单词后,不可孤立地逐个词检查,而应复读全文,仔细检查自己所填的词是否符合文章的情景内容,读起来是否顺畅,是否合乎句法,单词拼写是否有误,单词形式是否正确等,发现问题及时更正。 【知识梳理2】 词性解题法 1. 依据习惯用法与固定搭配,填出简单项; 【例题精讲】 1.Houston passed a__________on February 11, 2012.

Often, your headache is from your too much a paid to one thing. 依据词性填写:注意词性变化,时态,语态: 名词:要点注意名词单复数和属格 判断填写名词的基本方法:名词区别于其他此类的基本特征即是:名词前可以加上冠词。 【例题精讲】 A. She didn’t feel happy with her husband.

It was from a good friend of his m . 动词:需要注意时态、语态及非谓语动词 判断是否是动词的基本方法:不管句子的类型如何,英语中每个句子都有一个核心动词,去掉充当句子修饰部分的“枝叶“,留下的骨干部分,看是否为一个完整的句子,是否缺少一个核心骨动词。其他诸如助动词后加动词原形,情态动词须和动词等小的知识点不再赘述,在讲解动词专题时带着详述。 【例题精讲】 A. Houston began singing with New Jersey church’s choir (唱诗班) at age 11. Later, she began performing with her mother in the New York City, she was d by Clive Davis—head of the Arista Records. B.
