完形填空题的解题规律
语义优先于语法原则
由于文章的开头部分一般不设空格,而是对所选短文的题材和可能涉及的内容作简单的介绍或提示,并且单纯的语法题几乎从该题型中消失。
如果一味按照语法规则来选择答案,就陷入了答题误区,因为几乎每一题的四个选项都符合语法规则;理解文章的大意并结合语言结构对每个空格作出正确的判断,方为上策。
词内选项句内找原则
从近几年的高考原题来看,近义词或词组的辨析正成为考试的热点。四个选择项要么都是词义相近的名词单数或复数,要么都是近义动词的同一时态等,只能根据上下文的语境作出正确的选择。
如果提供的四个选择项词义相差悬殊,则上文或下文肯定有答题提示,有时第一个空格要读完全文才能回答。
四遍法原则
考生正确的答题步骤应该是:
首先跳过空格通读全文,了解短文的大意及文章的体裁,同时将一眼就看出答案的几道题答出;
第二遍是答题的关键,考生应一个个地去推敲,切忌按题号顺序答题,不能确定的先跳过去,先易后难是答题原则;
第三遍是通篇考虑,把一些上下文联系很强,甚至牵涉到段与段之间逻辑关系的困难空缺填好;
第四遍是检查,做完后再通读一遍全文,从整体把握文章的意思,修正与全文不相称的选项。

59.A.beg B.trust C.need D.aid

(2024·安徽合肥·模拟预测)Do you always overlook your mom’s words when talking with your friends If you’re a teen, that’s fairly 16 . And new researches may explain why so many adolescents 17 their mom’s voices.
Young kids’ brains are very tuned in to their mothers’ voices. But as they grow up, everything 18 . Teenagers’ brains are more tuned in to strangers’ voices. This obvious 19 usually happens between ages 13 and 14. That’s when teenagers are in the course of puberty (青春期), a roughly decade-long transition into adulthood.
Researchers scanned the brains of 7 to 16-year-olds as they listened to things said by their mothers or by unfamiliar women. The words were purely 20 : teebudieshawlt, keebudieshawlt and peebudieshawlt. As they listened, certain parts of their brains became 21 . This was especially true in brain regions that help us to pay attention and 22 how to obtain rewards. That’s exactly as it should be. The experiments show that those parts of their brains react more strongly to the unfamiliar voices than to their mothers’.
These areas in the adolescent brains don’t stop 23 mom. It’s just that unfamiliar voices become more rewarding and worthy of attention. “As kids 24 , their survival depends less and less on maternal (母亲的) support. 25 , they rely more and more on their 26 — friends and others closer to their own age. So the brains need to begin paying more attention to that wider world. The brain seems to 27 new needs that come with adolescence.”
However, mothers’ voices still have special power, especially in times of 28 . Studies also showed that levels of stress hormones (荷尔蒙) 29 when stressed-out girls heard their moms’ voices on the phone.
So while both teens and their parents sometimes feel frustrated by missed messages, that’s okay. “That’s the way the 30 functions, and there’s a good reason for it.”

考点归纳
高考英语完形填空中的逻辑关系
因果关系
文中前后句之间是因果关系时,两句之间往往有表示原因和结果的关联词,如:because, so, as a result等;但是,有时两句之间却没有表示因果的信号词,这时前后句之间存在着一种隐性的因果关系。
Every year about 40000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.They __41 with them lots of waste.The 42 might damage the beauty of the place.
41.A. keep B. mix C. connect D. Bring
42.A. stories B. buildings C. crowds D. reporters
解析:这两道题可以通过三句话之间的隐性因果关系来解决。第一句说明每年约有四万人尝试攀登乞力马扎罗山,由于人数多,因此他们带来了大量垃圾;由于大量人群产生大量垃圾,所以破坏了这个地方的美景,因此41题选D,42选C。
They saw a man_____36_____out of a garbage can. She asked her mother why he did that and her mother said that the man was homeless and hungry.
36. A. jumping B. eating C. crying D. waving
解析:后一句中的“the man was homeless and hungry(这个男人无家可归且饥肠辘辘)”表示原因,本句表示结果,即前果后因。由因推果,可知“他们看见一个男人正在捡垃圾桶里的食物吃”,故选B。
条件关系
条件关系就是指从句提出一种条件,主句说明在这种条件下产生的结果。常见关联词有if, unless, on condition that等。
“I can help, Mum!” James said. “_____44_____ I can make you and Dad feel better, can Brett come over Please?”
A. As B. If C. Since D. Before
解析:“如果我能让你和父亲感觉好一点儿”与“Brett能过来吗?”是条件与结果的关系,故选B。
]The children of Nome would be _____37_____ if it (a deadly infectious disease mainly affecting children) struck the town. Dr. Welch needed medicine as soon as possible to stop other kids from getting sick.
37. A. harmless B. helpless C. fearless D. careless
解析:由从句条件推知主句结果。由 “如果这种(主要传染给孩子的致命的)疾病袭击了这个镇子”可推知,“Nome镇的孩子们就会很无助了”,故选B。
让步关系
一般说来,让步关联词分为介词类和连词类。介词类的让步关联词有despite,in spite of, regardless of等,连词类有though,although,as和while以及even if, even though等。
Looking around, he continued, “Cathy has inspired us with her will and enthusiasm. _____33_____ skills and talents bring great success, the most valuable asset(财富)one can hold is the heart.”
33. A. Although B. Since C. Once D. Because
解析由主句“the most valuable asset(财富)one can hold is the heart (然而,一个人拥有的最大财富是内心)”可推知空格所在句句意为“虽然或尽管技巧和天赋能带来巨大的成功”,故选A。
Hard though she tried to make the kids _____40_____, the thunder won the battle for their attention.
40.A. concentrate B.change C.hide D.sit
解析:考查通过让步关系推断出正确答案。根据though可知,前后分句之间为让步关系。句意为“尽管她尽力让孩子们集中注意力,雷声却吸引了孩子们的注意力”。故选A。
转折关系
当前后两句的逻辑关系为转折关系时,前句往往提出某种事实或情况,后句转而陈述与前句相反或相对的意思, 即后句才是说话人所要表达的真正意图。常见关联词:however, but, on the contrary等。
We went 10—1 and I was named most valuable player, _____48_____ I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame for Miller’s accident.
48. A. and B. then C. but D. thus
解析:“我被命名为最有价值的运动员”与“我常做恶梦被责备”是转折关系,故选项C正确。Dr. Welch needed medicine as soon as possible to stop other kids from getting sick. _____38_____, the closest supply was over 1, 000 miles away, in Anchorage.
38. A. Moreover B. Therefore C. Otherwise D. However
解析:因“韦尔奇医生迫切需要药品来预防小孩子们患病”与“最近的药品供应站也在一千英里之外的安克雷奇”为转折关系,故选D。
The lessons they learned may not be _____40_____ what they would have gotten in school,but are certainly more personal and meaningful,because they had to work them out on their own.
40.A. harmful to B.mixed with C.different from D.applied to
解析:由转折连词but后一分句可推知整句的句意为“她们学到的经验可能与将在学校得到的并无区别(different from),但一定更加个性化,更有意义,因为她们必须靠自己来弄清楚”,故选C。
对比关系
当前后句的逻辑关系为对比关系时,两句在意义上应具有明显的差异,以便进行对照比较。常见关联词:while, whereas, not….. but, instead等。
The professor was deaf and any talking was prohibited. I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant._____58_____, if there had been any talking, it would have caused us to learn less. 58. A. Lastly B. Thus C. Instead D. However
解析:考查对比关系的关联词。 “I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant(我很快意识到安静不是不令人愉快的)”和“if there had been any talking, it would have caused us to learn less(如果当时有口语交流,那只会造成我们学的手语更少)”是对比关系,故选C。
并列关系
在用并列连词and或not only…but also把两个互相独立的简单句连接而成的复合句中,前后句之间的逻辑关系为并列关系,既可以是同近义并列,也可以反义并列。解题时,可从一个简单句推知正确答案。
Freddy was an average student, but not an average person. He had the rare balance of fun and compassion(同情). He would laugh the loudest over fun and be the saddest over anyone’s_____46_____.
46. A. misfortune B. disbelief C. dishonesty D. mistake
解析:根据并列连词and和前一分句中的fun以及46空前面的saddest不难判断:两分句之间的逻辑关系为并列关系,且是反义并列,故选A。
Then came the final awards ceremony at the end of the year. Cathy didn’t expect any award but was still there to _____30_____ her friends and praise their accomplishments.
30. A. cheer on B. compete with C. respond to D. run after
解析:根据“and praise their accomplishments”可推知,30空应为:为某人鼓劲加油,故选A。
递进关系
所谓递进关系,是指后一分句以前一分句为基点,并在程度或范围上比前一分句有更进一层的语义关系。常见关联词有even, besides, what’s more等。
They had begun to integrate (融合) the kinds of play and teamwork they had seen the day before into their game. They played aggressively and _____36_____ scored a goal.
36.A.even B.still C.seldom D.again
解析:前文说她们把前一天从对手身上“看到”的技巧和合作精神融入到自己的比赛中。由“她们表现得很有进攻性”与“(甚至)还进了一球”是递进关系,故选A。
解释关系
解释关系是指一个句子对另一个句子、短语或单词进行解释或说明。解释的方法既可通过某些动词(mean, be和suggest等),也可通过某些符号(破折号,冒号和括号等),或者关联词(for example/instance, namely等)。 这里只讨论句子之间的解释关系。 In the more than five years since Hannah began her activities, she has received a lot of _____51_____. For example, she received the 2007 BRICK Award recognizing the efforts of young people to change the world.
51. A. praises B. invitations C. replies D. appointments
解析:由for example可知,两句之间为解释关系。并且由后一句的句意“例如,她获得2007年度的BRICK Award大奖”可知,51空处应表示“奖励”,故选A。
On January 31, a musher named Seppala had to cross a frozen body of water called Norton Sound. It was the most_____48_____ part of the journey. Norton Sound was covered with ice, which could sometimes break up without warning. If that happened, Seppala might fall into the icy water below.
48. A. shameful B. boring C. dangerous D. foolish
解析:空后的句子“Norton Sound was covered with ice, which could sometimes break up without warning. If that happened, Seppala might fall into the icy water below. ”是对48空所在句子的解释,由这一解释可知“这是旅途中最危险的一部分”,故选C。
顺序关系
当前后句之间的逻辑关系为顺序关系时,它们往往表示某一事件或动作的连续发生。值得注意的是,顺序关系有时不是指前后句之间,而是存在于上下段或上下文之间。常见关联词有to begin with, first of all, first(ly), second(ly), then, next, in the end, finally, last but not least 等。
In 1973, I was teaching elementary school. Each day, 27 kids entered “The Thinking Laboratory.”… Before the school year_____47_____, I gave the kids a special gift, …
47. A. changed B. approached C. returned D. ended
解析:前文说作者正在教小学,根据 “I gave the kids a special gift ”,可知从句应表示“在本学年结束之前”,故选D。
时间关系
时间状语从句常由when, while, after, before, as soon as等引导。解题时一定要认真研究前后句之间的逻辑关系,结合语境推断出最佳选项。
The race began on January 27. The first musher, Shannon, picked up the medicine from the train at Nenana and rode all night. _____46_____he handed the medicine to the next musher, Shannon’s face was black from the extreme cold.
46. A. Though B. Since C. When D. If

解析:根据38空的前后句可知Gabriel不喜欢音乐,其中的一个原因就是学音乐的学生要比规定的到校时间早几个小时到校去练习音乐,故选A。
完形填空题的解题规律
语义优先于语法原则
由于文章的开头部分一般不设空格,而是对所选短文的题材和可能涉及的内容作简单的介绍或提示,并且单纯的语法题几乎从该题型中消失。
如果一味按照语法规则来选择答案,就陷入了答题误区,因为几乎每一题的四个选项都符合语法规则;理解文章的大意并结合语言结构对每个空格作出正确的判断,方为上策。
词内选项句内找原则
从近几年的高考原题来看,近义词或词组的辨析正成为考试的热点。四个选择项要么都是词义相近的名词单数或复数,要么都是近义动词的同一时态等,只能根据上下文的语境作出正确的选择。
如果提供的四个选择项词义相差悬殊,则上文或下文肯定有答题提示,有时第一个空格要读完全文才能回答。
四遍法原则
考生正确的答题步骤应该是:
首先跳过空格通读全文,了解短文的大意及文章的体裁,同时将一眼就看出答案的几道题答出;
第二遍是答题的关键,考生应一个个地去推敲,切忌按题号顺序答题,不能确定的先跳过去,先易后难是答题原则;
第三遍是通篇考虑,把一些上下文联系很强,甚至牵涉到段与段之间逻辑关系的困难空缺填好;
第四遍是检查,做完后再通读一遍全文,从整体把握文章的意思,修正与全文不相称的选项。
易错分析
句中题易混易错点
句中题指设空处的答案由设空处本身所在的单句逻辑意思即可确定选项。
句组易混易错点
句组层次的题由设空处所在的单句无法辨别,需要根据其所在句子的前后句组的信息才可以确定正确选项。语篇易混易错点
语篇层次的题在设空处所在的句中和前后句组内往往不能确定选项,需要浏览全文,根据其他段落或综合全篇信息才能得出正确答案。

21. A. designed B. followed C. changed D. finished
22. A. delay B. chance C. trouble D. excuse
易错分析:两处均属句组题,即在设空处本身的句子无法正确判断,但可以互相借助前后句组得知设空处意思,故一定瞻前顾后做完形。
【答案】21. D 22. A
21.句组题。考查动词词义辨析。句意:Melanie Bailey应该更早完成比赛。A. designed设计;B. followed跟随;C. changed改变;D. finished完成。根据下一段的“carried her all the way to the finish line, then another 300 feet to where Lenoue could get ____8____ attention”可知,Bailey在比赛中背一名参赛者,所以完成比赛晚了,因此句子表示“Melanie Bailey应该更早完成比赛”。故选D。
22.句组题。考查名词词义辨析。句意:她的延迟是因为她背着一名竞争对手冲过终点线。A. delay延误;B. chance机会;C. trouble麻烦;D. excuse借口。根据上文“Melanie Bailey should have ____1____ the course earlier than she did”和上一题的解析可知,Melanie Bailey应该更早完成比赛,她的延迟是因为她背着一名竞争对手冲过终点线。故选A。

(2024·安徽合肥·模拟预测)Do you always overlook your mom’s words when talking with your friends If you’re a teen, that’s fairly 16 . And new researches may explain why so many adolescents 17 their mom’s voices.
Young kids’ brains are very tuned in to their mothers’ voices. But as they grow up, everything 18 . Teenagers’ brains are more tuned in to strangers’ voices. This obvious 19 usually happens between ages 13 and 14. That’s when teenagers are in the course of puberty (青春期), a roughly decade-long transition into adulthood.
Researchers scanned the brains of 7 to 16-year-olds as they listened to things said by their mothers or by unfamiliar women. The words were purely 20 : teebudieshawlt, keebudieshawlt and peebudieshawlt. As they listened, certain parts of their brains became 21 . This was especially true in brain regions that help us to pay attention and 22 how to obtain rewards. That’s exactly as it should be. The experiments show that those parts of their brains react more strongly to the unfamiliar voices than to their mothers’.
These areas in the adolescent brains don’t stop 23 mom.
