文档简介

课件47张PPT。如何做完型一、通读全文,掌握大意
1、抓住文章首尾句
完形填空一般不给出标题,这就使得掌握文章中心思想的难度加大,但是按一般的规律,开篇首句有的甚至是头两句、三句、往往是完整句,不设计空格。因此,首句或前几句就成了了解全文中心的窗口,它们可帮助我们判断文章的题材和体裁,为推测文章的大意提供重要信息 He has been called the “missing link”. Half-man, half-beast. He is supposed to live in the highest mountain in the world-Mount Everest. (NMET2001)
全文讲述的可能是一种生活在大山里的一种特殊的动物(half-man, half-best),它可能是失踪了的(原始人与现代人)的一种联系 .
联想到:这一失踪了的“联系物”可能又被发现。同样,有些文章的尾句,往往也是对全文的小结和概括,即使留有空格,也可为我们把握大意提供帮助 2、快速阅读全文,粗略理解大意
不要忙于动手做题目,应先通读全文,以使对文章内容有个整体了解。这是一个很重要的步骤,切勿错误地认为可有可无。有的学生在答题时,或是为了节省时间,或是由于不良的习惯,在未通读前就边阅读边填空,结果还未填完,就发现前面出错了,与下文不符,然后又回头重做,这样不仅没节省时间,反而浪费时间,还会影响思路和情绪.阅读时可以根据首句提供的信息,充分运用逻辑思维,捕捉文中的关键词语,在阅读过程中,应跳过所有空格,快速将全文读完,有时甚至可以通读两遍或三遍,以了解语境,把握大意。
注意力放在:时间、地点、人物、起因、结果和贯串全文的重要事件上,并注意它们之间的联系。 特别要注意的是:通读的目的是粗略理解大意,因此通读时,要采取快、粗、跳的方法。快,指的是用较短的时间读一遍,使思路连贯,一泻而下,切不可在个别的词、句子上停留较长的时间,使思路中断。粗,指的是,了解大概意思,切不可一开始就将宝贵的时间消磨在个别字句意思的推敲上。跳,指的是,跨过一个个空格,一看到底,而不是把四个选项中的任何一个或分别纳入短文空白中一起读,这样,只能是事倍功半 二、紧扣主题,认真答题
在全文的通读基础上,应紧扣主题,纵观上下文,从两个大的方面综合地全面地考虑。 一是语言知识方面,二是非语言知识方面。
语言知识主要指的是:语法、习惯用法、词的搭配、短语的意义、近义词的辨析等。
非语言知识指的是:文章的前后逻辑关系,人物的一般心理、生活常识以及事件发展的一般规律等。 We feel 43 (tired) and fall asleep at night and become 44 (lively) and energetic during the day. If the 24-hour cycle is 45 (disturbed) most people experience unpleasant 46 (feelings) (NMET2000)
一般的生活常识和事物的一般规律
答题过程中,除了注意以上两个大方面以外,对于一些难以确定的空格,切不可花太多的时间,完全可以先将它们放下,大胆地跳过去,继续往下读,随着情节的展开和前后文的照应、对比,你会豁然开朗,一下子找出上文空格的正确答案。 三、复核全文,验证答案
短文完形之后,应再次对全文进行复读,认真检查一遍,看所选答案是否能使全文贯通,情节、推理等是否符合情理。若遇到不通之处,应该从句子结构和意义两个角度来仔细权衡,加以纠正。对于个别仍然拿不准的答案,应当相信自己的语感,坚持第一次的选择。
总之,做完形填空要冷静、谨慎,切忌草率行事。要充分发挥所学知识,善于利用文中信息,瞻前顾后,放眼全篇,方可取得优异成绩。 二、完型填空具体操作中应注意的问题
1.??????? 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。
1)Travelling _______, today becomes yesterday; travelling west it is tomorrow.
A. south B. east C. north D. west
这是两个句式相同的并列句,可以根据第二句来确定第一句的内容。yesterday 与tomorrow 相对,所填的词应与west 相对,因此答案是B。 2) Many old people don't have good _______. They can't watch TV, but they can listen to music or news over the radio.
A. hearing B. health C. eyesight D. time
句中与can't watch TV 信息有关的词是eyesight, 因此答案是C。 3) Some parts of the water are very shallow. But in some places it is very, 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。 4) Someone had taken the _______ diamond and put a faulty one in its place.
A. real B. pure C. right D. exact
这里连词and 也表示一定意义的转折,所填的词应与faulty 相对,因此答案为A 5) 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。 6) ① the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket ② turned over to the policeman? Should the extra change received at the store be forgotten or returned?
① A. Should B. Must C. Would D. Need
② A. and B. or C. then D. but
这两个句子句式完全相同,很容易在第二句中找到第一句所缺的词,答案分别为Should 和or。 2. 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。
1)??The city (Washington) was named ______ George Washington, the first president of the United States.
A. by B. for C. as D. after
be named after 意为“以…命名”,答案为D。 2)?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)?They can build our bodies, prevent us ______ getting too fat.
A. off B. away C. from D. in
短语prevent sb. from doing sth. 意为“阻止某人做某事”,故答案为C 4)??It was 4 o'clock when the front doorbell rang. Mrs Clarke was _____ tea at the time.
A. cooking B. making C. burning D. serving
沏茶”的英语表达是make tea, 答案为B。 5)?It wasn't long ______ the police caught the thief.
A. before B. since C. until D. when
“不久”的英语表达是 It isn't long before…, 答案为A。 6)??????? Behind the dancer there was a woman ______ a large diamond ring.
A. carrying B. dressing C. wearing D. holding
表示“穿着…,戴着…”用动词wear, 答案为C 7)?They are properly guided to use the knowledge ______.
A. seen B. noticed C. learned D. met
knowledge 只能通过 learn 来获得,因此答案为C 3. 注意同义词的辨义
1)??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。 2)?????? The boy was ① the water and his canoe was ② away.
① A. on B. within C. in D. under
② A. running B. floating C. flowing D. pulling
这句话描写的是一个孩子落水的情景。考虑到当时的情景,第①空应填in; 第②空的选项中B和C容易混淆。float 意为漂浮,flow 意为“流动”,根据句意,答案应选B。 3) “Give me a hand,” he shouted ______ he got near the boat.
A. while B. till C. for D. as
四个选项都可以表示时间。while 强调一段时间内进行的动作,常与进行时连用;till 表示的是动作持续到某时或到某时才开始;for 表示的是动作持续了一段时间;as 连接的是一个与谓语动作几乎同时发生的动词。答案应选D,表示他一边向船靠近一边大声喊。 4)It was a pleasant way of passing the time for an old woman who lived ______.
A. lonely B. alone C. away D. busily
lonely 和alone 意义相近。Lonely是“孤独”的意思,alone 指的是“独自一人的”。这里应选B,意思是“一个人住的老太太”。 5)The back door and the windows were all closed and there was no ______ of forced entry.
A. scene B. show C. sign D. sight
此句意为后门和窗户都锁着,而且也没有破门而入的迹象。scene 意思是“风景”,sign 意为 “痕迹”, sight 为“景色”,因此答案是C。 6) Jenkins was a jeweler, who had made a large diamond ring worth 57,000 for the Silkstone Jewellery Shop. When I was ready, he made a copy of it which looked exactly like the first one but worth only 2,000. This he took to the shop, which ______ it without a question.
A. accepted B. received C. refused D. rejected
从句后的 without a question 可以知道,这家商店最终还是收下了,因此应在选项A和B之间进行选择。accept 表示主观上接受,receive 指客观上的收到。答案应选A。 7)There is nothing really new about ______ in exams.
A. lying B. cheating C. guessing D. discussing
指“考试中作弊”用cheat, lie 指“撒谎”,答案应选B。 8) “Get up earlier tomorrow! Anyway, go to your ______ at the counter. We'll be opening in a few minutes.”
A. business B. job C. place D. spot
选项C和D都有地点的意思,但place 指 particular space occupied by someone or something; spot 的意思是 particular place. 因此答案选C 4. 根据动作的发出者确定所选的词
1)??????? 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”。 2)?The watch, which Mrs Smith had ______ on the table as she started her lecture, disappeared.
A. seen B. dropped C. found D. laid
从句中可以看出,手表是 Mrs Smith 的,为讲课方便,她把表放在桌子上,所以不可能选A或C。因此答案是D 3)??????? When the papers were ______ she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
A. collected B. completed C. marked D. answered
句中she 指老师,paper 指试卷。老师给试卷打分,因此答案为C 4) Japan is an island country and its ① go all over the Pacific looking for fish to ② .
① A. fishing boats B. lifeboats C. planes D. trains
② A. buy B. catch C. hold D. weigh
只有fishing boats 能够到太平洋捕鱼,因此空①答案为A。捕鱼用动词catch,空②答案为B 5. 根据上下文的逻辑关系确定选项
1)????? …and the officers then began to eat their meal, saying that the mushrooms had a very strange ______ quite pleasant taste.
A. besides B. but C. and D. or
句中strange 和pleasant 两词的词意是矛盾的,所以答案应选转折连词but 2)????? A transistor radio is sometimes very small. It is very easy to carry…______, radio broadcasts are better for blind people.
A. Besides B. However C. Yet D. Sometimes
句子前一部分说的是transistor radio 的好处,后一部分还是说它的好处。因此答案为A,表示“除此之外,还…”。3)????? 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 4) At first nothing happened, ______ suddenly a large rat rushed out of the hold…
A. then B. and C. or D. so
句子开头有At first, 后面就应该用then 表示时间顺序 5) ______ solids expand much less than liquids or gases, the small increases can add up to a lot…
A. Although B. If C. Because D. After
这句话的意思是“虽然固体不如液体和气体膨涨得厉害,但把小的量加起来也不小了”,所以应用although 来引导这个让步状语从句 6. 根据生活常识以及相关知识确定选项
1) (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 2) …, You ① the international dateline. By agreement, this is the point where a new day ②

广德二中2006届高考
英语专题复习高考英语完形填空趋势从近几年全国高考的完形填空来看,已经不再考核学生语法方面的知识了,而是从语义搭配、结构搭配、惯用搭配及逻辑知识等方面来测试学生词汇的掌握及运用。而且有些词的选择,必须在理解整篇文章的基础上,才能作出正确的判断。高考英语完形填空命题特点1. 短文长度200词左右,生词少,难度适中。
2. 首句无空格,提供语境。5-10词设一人名、
地名、日期、数字不在之列。隔词数越少,
题目越难;反之亦然。
3. 选项多为一词,偶会为词组。四选项为同一类
词或属同一范畴,或近义或形异义,或与前
后配成词组。故干扰性、迷性大。高考英语完形填空命题特点4.考查单词以实词(v.,n.,adj.,adv,pron.)为主,虚词(conj.,prep.)为辅。实词一般占80%-90%,其中又以动、名、形为主。
5.以考查学生对文章的整体理解和词汇的意义把握为主。有些要结合常识才能正确选项;有些甚至要求在通篇理解的基础上,正确把握上下文的逻辑关系,才能正确判断和选择。英语完形填空解题步骤通读全文,统揽全局。

?? 完形填空要求考生阅读一篇不完整的短文,在提供的选项中为每个空缺处找出最佳答案,使短文得以恢复原貌,以求文意通顺、结构完整。在答题过程中,考生需要弄清短文大意,通篇考虑,设想所遇空缺处应该出现的内容,随后以该题的选项验证自己的推测,选定答案。该题型的考查目的包括:?1. 阅读理解的能力,尤其是跳读能力;

?2. 归纳、判断、分析和推理的能力,找准主题、话题以及了解篇章结构的能力;
?3. 熟练扎实的词汇和语法知识。
二.试题特点1. 选文特点
??自1997年至2004年完形填空都为叙述文体,思路明确,结构完整,语言丰富,可读性强。(不过,以后高考很可能会出现其他体裁的文章,如说明文、议论文等。)文章一般在260-300词之间;难度低于阅读理解题中的短文,与高三课文水平相当,所选短文结构严谨,层次分明、逻辑性强。2. 体裁特点
(1)题目难度较大; 要求跳读全文,通篇考虑,掌握大意,并运用所学的词汇、语法知识,选出最佳答案,使短文恢复本来面貌。四个选项中,干扰项是经过周密设计的。它们往往都能和空前、空后的文字形成搭配,从不同角度、不同层次设置干扰,起到不同程度的“迷惑”作用。
(2)综合性较强; 此题考查的是考生英语基础知识和综合运用语言的能力,其中包括识词能力、阅读能力、理解能力和进行逻辑推理和判断的能力。近年来高考题越来越偏重对学生识词能力的考查。(3)整体性强; 完形填空要求从四个选项中确定一个最佳答案,其他三个为干扰项,从局部看,这三个干扰项通常不一定是错误的,而是不适合其所在语篇的特定语言环境。当选择答案时,要结合文章中出现的具体人物或事件,根据文章所提供的时间、地点和语言环境去体会人物的动作和感情。
 因此,在做这类题时,首先要弄清短文大意, 通篇考虑,确定文章的基本意思和整体轮廓,再着手对每个空所给的四个选项进行分析、推理、和判断, 从而做出最佳选择. 3. 语言特点
(1)四个选项一般属于同一词类,相同语义范畴;
(2)选项大多是一个单词,注意对称,避免对答案的明显暗示;也就是语法意义选择少,语义选择多;
(3)跨越句子层次的题占绝大多数,就是说只读懂设空所在句子便可找到答案的题,仅占极少数,大多数的选项的答案要通过段落甚至全文来找到;以2003年北京考题为例,属于句子层次的题目仅为7小题,其余13小题均需要考虑到设空句以外的其他句、段内容甚至从全文角度来考虑。4. 设空特点
? 1)设空密度稳定。在260-300个词左右的短文中,设空20个,平均设空密度为10-15个单词设1个空。稳定的设空密度决定了完形填空题稳定的命题难度。
? 2)设空以实词为主,虚词为辅;单词为主,短语为辅。“完形填空”选项对照表(97 – 2004年)? 3)设空注重在语境中考查词义,但是,完形填空题对词汇的考查并未设置太大的障碍,选项所涉及的词汇,95%左右出自课本,而且仅涉及基本意义和用法。在联系上下文的情况下,考生很容易能将两个选项排除,剩下两项,只要对上下文再进行细致的推敲,对所剩两词的词义进行细微的辨析,也很快能确定正确答案。1996年以来几乎所有的选项,都要通过联系上下文而确定,而单纯的语法选择填空已经从试题中消失。注重在语境中考查词义的这一试题特点,很好地反映了从重点测试语言形式转向重点测试语言意义的改革方向,反映了“强调应用,注重交际”的命题原则。? 4)设空的分类。设空的答案有的由一个句子决定,有的由相邻不远的一组句子决定,还有的由语篇内容综合决定。因此,设空分为:(1)句子层次(点);(2)句组层次(线);(3)语篇层次(面)。设空的难度,从句子层次到句组层次,再到语篇层次,依次递增。一般说来,三个层次的设空比例各占三分之一。但是,从近年来的高考试题看,语篇层次设空的比例有所增加,超过了三分之一,反映出“突出语篇”的命题思路。设空的答案有的由已读过的上文决定,有的由未读过的下文决定,还有的要综合上下文而定。所以设空分为三类:(1)前制性设空;(2)后制性设空;(3)语篇性设空。不言而喻,前制性设空难度低,后制性设空难度较高,语篇性设空难度最高。综上所述,完形填空题有三个难点:一是4个备选项有很强的迷惑性和干扰性;二是句组层次和语篇层次设空所占的比例高,超过三分之二,尤其是语篇性设空所占的比例超过三分之一;三是后制性设空,尤其是语篇层次后制性设空,难度大。如1999年、2003年考题的第一空,其答案提示一直到倒数第二段和篇末才出现。考生要逾越这些难点,不仅需要具备熟练扎实的词句知识,而且需要具备很强的阅读理解能力以及逻辑推理、判断分析的能力。从深层来讲还要具备良好的语言经验和自觉的语言意识。只有具备了这些综合素质,考生才能顺利“完形”。从历年高考试题看,正是由于试题的这些特点使这一题型体现了很好的区分度。 高考完形填空命题规律与解题技巧(二) 〈一〉 完形填空对考生能力的要求  1. 快速阅读能力:完形填空实际上是变形的阅读理解题,因此,它和阅读理解一样要求学生具备快速阅读的各种能力和技巧。
  2. 较强的语篇的整体处理能力:完形填空一般是选取一篇结构严谨的短文,层次清楚,线索也不复杂,用几个段落较为集中地表达一个主题。因此在阅读中要分清段落之间的层次关系,找准主题,按主题线索合理推断文章,才能准确选择答案。  3. 语言知识辨析能力:由于所给的选项大多是单一的词,大多又都属于同一词类,在语法结构上可能都正确,关键在于词义的干扰,这就要求考生既要有准确辨析词义的能力,又要有准确辨析句子结构的能力。〈二〉完形填空答题技巧  1. 重视首句,把握开篇  完形填空一般无标题,首句不留空白,是完整的一句。细读此句可以判断文章体裁,预测全文大意和主旨。读懂首句可以帮助建立正确的思维导向,避免误入歧途,对理解全文起重要的作用。  2000年试题首句:
  I climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase, my father following with two more.
  从所划线的词可以看出作者当时的心态。因此第一个设空的正确选项也就不难得出了。同时这句话对整篇文章起了一个很好交代,以至于他父亲摔倒,发脾气等,使作者在第一天所感到的尴尬心情都有了出处。  2003 年北京试卷首句:
  I was six when I joined my father and two elder brothers at sunrise in the fields of Eufaula, Okla.
  本文叙述了作者幼年的“工作”经历给他的成长过程带来的好处和使他懂得的道理. 而第一句就点明了六岁就开始和父亲哥哥在田里干活了, 从而直接明确地引入全文的主题.  2. 阅读全文,掌握大意  速读全文要一气呵成,尽管有空格,生词或不明白的地方,仍要快速读下去,不要急于看选项。一遍读不懂可以再迅速读一遍,直到明了大意(who, when, where, what),掌握梗概,总体把握文章内容,结构,时态,语态变化,情节的展开,结果的形成,然后答题。  3. 前后照应,灵活答题  (1)择优法  根据文章的结构边读边填,一部分是能立刻判断最佳答案的,就不必逐个考证其余答案,以节省时间。  (2)排除法
  对于一时难以确定的答案,可按空格位置,从语法结构,上下文意,习惯用法,词义辨析等方面,对选项逐个分析试填。此时,“瞻前顾后”是必要的:即先读所填句,回顾上一句,兼顾下一句。如果一句中有两处填空,要“双管齐下”,在两处同时试填,然后通读全句,确定答案 。4. 复读全文,验证答案   (1)检查上下文的一致性:即时态、语态的一致,代词、名词、单复数的一致。
  (2)检查表达法的习惯性:即习惯用语、固定搭配、句型词组是否符合习惯。
  (3)检查上下文的连贯性:及凭借语感,按照上下文,检查段落与段落,句子与句子之间的衔接是否连贯。这是检查中至关重要的一环,往往能纠正一处甚至多处错误。高考完形填空命题规律与解题技巧 (三) 模拟试题 1.? 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:Many old people don't have good _______. They can't watch TV, but they can listen to music or news over the radio.

C. flowing D. pulling  I climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase, my father following with two more. By the time I got to the third floor, I was ___1___ and at the same time feeling lonely. Worse still, Dad missed a step and fell, sending my new suitcases __2__ down the stairs.
1. A. helpless B. lazy
C. anxious D. tired
2. A. rolling B. passing

to my classPingding No.1 Middle SchoolWang baocun高考专项训练完形填空2006 高考完形填空命题规律与解题技巧 (一)一. 考查目的
?? 完形填空要求考生阅读一篇不完整的短文,在提供的选项中为每个空缺处找出最佳答案,使短文得以恢复原貌,以求文意通顺、结构完整。在答题过程中,考生需要弄清短文大意,通篇考虑,设想所遇空缺处应该出现的内容,随后以该题的选项验证自己的推测,选定答案。该题型的考查目的包括:?1. 阅读理解的能力,尤其是跳读能力;

?2. 归纳、判断、分析和推理的能力,找准主题、话题以及了解篇章结构的能力;
?3. 熟练扎实的词汇和语法知识。
二.试题特点1. 选文特点
??自1997年至2004年完形填空都为叙述文体,思路明确,结构完整,语言丰富,可读性强。(不过,以后高考很可能会出现其他体裁的文章,如说明文、议论文等。)文章一般在260-300词之间;难度低于阅读理解题中的短文,与高三课文水平相当,所选短文结构严谨,层次分明、逻辑性强。2. 体裁特点
(1)题目难度较大; 要求跳读全文,通篇考虑,掌握大意,并运用所学的词汇、语法知识,选出最佳答案,使短文恢复本来面貌。四个选项中,干扰项是经过周密设计的。它们往往都能和空前、空后的文字形成搭配,从不同角度、不同层次设置干扰,起到不同程度的“迷惑”作用。

Good-byeThank you 课件31张PPT。高考完形填空题的研究 2005年3月 完形填空是我国英语测试中最常见的题
型,也是我国高考英语考试中最基本的题
型之一。由于缺乏对完形填空这种高考题
型的正确了解,不少中学生总为找不到合
适的解题方法而感到头痛不已。目前,在
学生使用的练习中有一些完形填空题过于
偏重考察学生的语法知识,这更让中学生
无所适从。那么,什么是完形填空题?它
的功能是什么?正确的解题方法又是什么
呢?一、完形填空的起源与运用二、典型的完形填空题 三、完形填空法的特点与用途 四、完形填空题的解题方法 五、完形填空题的训练方法 1.坚持英语课堂教学中的听说训练,
不断培养学生运用英语的交际能力 2. 通过训练学生对单句或短语篇的理解能力
来提高他们解答完形填空题的能力。 3. 中学生解答完形填空题过程中的困惑和对策一、完形填空的起源与运用完形填空法(the close procedure)的产生与格式塔
心理学(Gestalt psychology)有着密切的关系。格
式塔心理学特别注重作为整体的经验模式(Gestalt
psychology is especially concerned with patterns of
experience as wholes.)。 它强调:不能通过对各部分的分析来认识整体。
要理解整体的全部性质,就必须“自上而下”地分
析整体结构到各个组成部分的特性。完形填空题的创始人:
威尔逊·泰勒(Wilson Taylor) “完形填空并不直接涉及特定的意思。它只
是反复地从两种语言模式的相似之处取样:
一种是写的人表达自己的思想的语言模式,
另一种是反映读的人根据自己的理解作出的
猜测的语言模式。”二、典型的完形填空题 在英语测试中,完形填空题主要用于话语
水平的阅读理解。典型的完形填空题是一
段短文,接近300个单词。第一句和最后一
句无空白。在我国高考的英语测试中,完形填空题也
是主要用于话语水平的阅读理解。它侧重
考察学生对语篇的理解能力,很少或几乎
不直接考察学生的语法知识。 我国高考英语测试中的完形填空题也是
一篇情景独立或相对完整的短文。短文
长度约300个单词。挖空偏重于实词,每
两个空白之间的距离不少于四至五个单词。
通常每空只挖去一个单词。为了便于考生
阅读,在该短文的第一句和最后一句均不
出现空白。三、完形填空法的特点与用途1、完形填空法的特点:1)用途十分广泛。完形填空法可以用于
母语教学和外语教学。 2)命题比较容易,取材极为灵活。用作
完形填空的短文材料可以取自教材、
书籍、报纸、杂志等,只要有可读性
就行。这就使得完形填空这个题型具
有丰富的内涵和题材的广泛性和灵活
性。3)平分难度不大。虽然典型的完形填空题属于半客观题,
但高考中的完形填空题采取了限制性
的出题方式,把选项改为完全客观性
选项,使答案唯一化。 2、完形填空法的用途:1)判断阅读教材的难易程度,以确定其
可读性;2)评估双语流畅程度;3)评估阅读理解能力;4)研究上下文的制约关系;5)评估教学效果。四、完形填空题的解题方法完形填空题是测试话语水平的题型。根据完
形填空法的基本理论,我国在高考NMET的
测试中使用完形填空题的主要目的在于考察
考生的短文阅读理解能力。 威尔逊·泰勒说:“完形填空所涉及的是一系
列与上下文相联系的空白, 而不是孤立的
空白。”思考方法和解题方法: 1.快速通读全文,从整体上来思考短文,
分析全文的基本结构和表达层次,从
而弄清文章的主要意思。2.仔细阅读短文的各个细节,努力从字
里行间找到能够利用的各种线索,作
出合理的推断,从而找出可能的正确
答案。3.我们可以用下列的思路来寻找可能
存在的线索:①graphic and morphological clues
(书写和形态变化线索)② lexical clues(词汇线索);③ syntactic clues(句法线索);④ social-cultural clues(社会文化线索)⑤ contextual clues(上下文线索)。4.实例分析:2002年高考英语试卷中的完形填空题是一
个完整的故事。文章的第一句最后一句没
有挖空。全文共257个单词,分为四段。第一段:作者述说了自己的高智商; What is intelligence anyway? When I was in

United States President George W. Bush is expected to issue a directive (法令) in the next few weeks. It will give the US Air Force a green light for the development of space weapons, US media reported last week.
This would potentially start a new global arms race, some experts warn.
However, last Wednesday the White House explained that it is not considering putting weapons in space. It said it is making a shift in US space policy to allow for protection of satellites.
But some defense analysts and arms control advocates argue that the policy will clear the way for the US to put both defensive and offensive weapons in space.
“No one should be fooled,” said Theresa Hitchens, an American weapons expert.
The US is now restricted by a 1996 directive signed by President Bill Clinton. Plans for space weapons were vetoed (否决)by the Clinton cabinet. The directive emphasized the peaceful use of space, in agreement with almost unanimous (一致的) global opinion.
The US military has place importance on space and has sent up numerous satellites for troop communications and to provide intelligence and data to guide bombs to their targets.
The US Air Force wants to develop space-based weapons that can strike targets anywhere in the world within 90 minutes of receiving the order to open fire.
These new weapons under development cover a wide range. They include hunter-killer satellites and orbiting weapons. And they use lasers, radio waves or even dense metal tubes, known as “Rods from God”, dropped from space to do the damage.
There many barriers to the setting up of this kind of program, experts say.
First is the cost. It is estimated that the budget may be US $220 billion to US $1 trillion.
The technical difficulties of developing reliable space weapons are also a problem.
And, the program will draw strong criticism from around the world. Experts worry about starting a space arms race.

三、完型填空:
36.命题意图:考查特定语境中使用恰当动词的能力。
解题思路:文章开头交待了一句话“我是一个对电话有瘾的人”,以下叙述围绕此句展开。face“勇敢面对,承认……的存在,呈现于……之前”,通读全文之后,紧接这句之后作者展开了回忆,所以应选face取“呈现于……之前”之意,而不应选notice“注意到”,A为正确答案。
37.命题意图:考查特定语境中选用恰当时间短语的能力。
解题思路:据上下文,37空后from...to sleep是37空的同位语,所以应选B.all the time(总是),而A为“时不时地,偶尔”。
38.命题意图:考查特定语境中使用恰当动词的能力。
解题思路:根据上下语境,应为等着接电话,所以C为正确答案。此外,43空后有
waiting for后暗示。
39.命题意图:考查特定语境中选用恰当形容词的能力。
解题思路:A.polite有礼貌的,B important重要的,C.fine好的。又据40空后的worse,39空应填fine,此题也体现了后暗示,所以C为正确答案。
40.命题意图:考查特定语境中选用恰当名词的能力,即同义词辨析。
解题思路:根据上下文,此处是指爱打电话的形势变得更为糟糕了。Situation=state of affairs,at a certain time事态,情势(尤指在某一时间内);condition=the present state of things目前的情况。所以正确答案应为B。
41.命题意图:考查根据特定语境选用恰当副词的能力。
解题思路:根据后文,finally,addiction,41空程度应比addiction小,前后也已交待,我打电话并不是有规律的,故排除B。对电话的利用也不是不同寻常或特殊的,所以正确答案应为A,由经常使用转变成了上瘾。
42.命题意图:考查根据特定语境选用恰当名词的能力
解题思路:根据全文,“我”已经工作,在49空前有At work作后暗示,所以正确答案为D。
43.命题意图:考查根据特定语境选用恰当冠词和形容词的能力。

45.命题意图:考查根据特定语境选用恰当非谓语动词的能力。
解题思路:根据上下文,“我”在打电话时告诫自己说“仅仅再打一个”,但由于上了瘾却控制不住,A.force为强迫,D.Limit为限制。所以正确答案为B。
46.命题意图:考查在特定语境中选用恰当动词的能力。
解题思路:leave messages to sb.为一固定短语,所以A为正确答案。
47.命题意图:考查在特定语境中选用恰当形容词的能力
解题思路:根据上下文,“我”打电话已上瘾并且下文有through the day,所以应为足够的电话,故C为正确答案。
48.命题意图:考查在特定语境中选用恰当名词的能力。
解题思路:根据上下文“朋友还没来得及关好门,我已径直走向了电话”,所以不管朋友同意与否,因为“我”已上瘾,“我”一定会打电话的。所以排除B、C,saying为格言,谚语,with the words“说了这些话之后立即”,所以正确答案为D。
49.命题意图:考查在特定语境中选用恰当形容词的能力。
解题思路:据上下文,“我”已上瘾,故别人阻止我打电话我会发疯,所以B为正确答案。
50.命题意图:考查在特定语境中选用恰当动词的能力。

注意:每空一词
Since the beginning of human evolution, men have migrated(迁移)across continents in search of food, shelter, safety, and comfortable weather. People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation.
Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.
There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):
Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital(婚姻的) status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.
Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving to places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”
Between March 2005 and March 2007, 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty-six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad.
Title: People on the 1

My Air Force room in Florida was 36 and quiet—I was alone. My five roommates were gone for the holidays; I had chosen to 37 behind in the camp. Being young and far from my home, I felt 38 . My room was comfortable enough, 39 I hadn’t realized until then what made it so—the 40 of others walking, joking or just lying on their beds.
I was not able to sleep. I was 41 of being on my own—in fact, preferred it at times—but tonight was 42 . Tossing and turning in the darkened room gave no 43 .

Ten is not just a number. For Hong Kong, it means change. That change began 10 years ago on July 1, 1997, when Hong Kong was returned to the mainland. A year later, putonghua became a major subject in middle schools there. Street chatter now is trilingual: Cantonese, English and putonghua.
But language is just one of the many changes. Over the past 10 years, the flow of people has left its mark, especially on the young people.
The first sign is in the job market. Before 2006, about 10,000 young professionals from the mainland found jobs in Hong kong. At the same time, around 240,000 Hong Kong residents had worked or were working on the mainland. More than 60 percent of them were aged 23 to 25, according to official statistics.
Geng Chun, 26, a native of northern China, managed to start his own IT business after completing his university degree in Hong Kong three years ago.
“I like Hong Kong,” Geng said. “Hong Kong needs us. We’re young, well-educated and energetic.”
Education is the next thing to change. After the return, more people from both the mainland and Hong Kong began crossing the border to get an education.
According to China’s Ministry of Education, in 2006, 914 Hong Kong students were admitted to mainland universities. In all, 7060 studied in the mainland that year. Before that time, Hong Kong students were rarely seen in mainland schools.
There was a growth on the other side as well. In the early 1990s, about 100 mainland students went to Hong Kong every year to study. Last year, 1300 studied in Hong Kong universities.
Besides social and cultural changes in Hong Kong, business exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong have greatly increased.
According to a Xinhua report, by the end of 2006, the mainland’s total investment in Hong Kong had reached $40 billion since 1997, which makes up 57 percent of all investments to places outside the mainland.
“We have many clients from the mainland, and actually, they are becoming our biggest group of clients,” said Ho, a manager for a Hong Kong PR company. “The mainland has provided our company with more business opportunities, which are vital for our development.”

44.D。句意:白昼的最后一丝光消失了,增添了我内心的沮丧。四个短语的意思:appeal to吸引;stick to坚持;lead to导致;add to增添。只有D项符合题意。
45.C。这两句之间的意思递进。
46.A。remind sb of sth.是固定结构。
47.B。根据这句话中开始声音的weak,后来grew older,一开始这些人只是attempt to sing。
48.D。根据句意:我“躺者”不动,欣赏他们的音乐。“躺者”用lay(过去式)表示,所以选D,sleep 意思是“睡着”不符合题意。
49.B。走道只能在房间的“外面”,用beyond表达符合题意。
50.D。由于是现场演唱,不能说play a song, announce和accept不合题意。用offer能准确表意。
51.C。用cheer能准确表达当时他们兴致勃勃的样子,optimism不足于表达当时的情形,noise和confidence显然搭配不当。
52. A。be stuck in 陷入;被插在…;be attached to 依附于;be tied to 被系到…; be involved in牵涉到…,本句只蜡烛被插在可可瓶的顶端,用A项符合题意。
53.B。“看见”我在房子里,B表达准确。
54.C。由于事情发生在圣诞节,所以C项表达准确。good luck不能用在a 后面。
55.A。本句讲作者怀者“感激的” 心情。所以答案是A。

If environmental trends continue on a positive track, some day children may ask, “Mommy, what was pollution?” But between that day and ours stands the environmental problem: global warming. Fighting an artificial greenhouse effect is the greatest of environmental challenges, because the cure will not be possible unless almost every nation on the Earth participates.
Will global warming cause harm? Some computer models suggest the world might warm by 5 degrees or more during this century, which might be dangerous. Melting polar ice could raise sea levels, while global warming might cause more intense storms and disrupt the weather patterns that bring rain to agricultural regions. Computer models are just a guess, of course, but when the farming areas that we all depend upon for food rely on current temperatures, rolling the dice (骰子) with the climate cannot be wise. Yet today the United States has no national law regulating greenhouse gases.
There are methods to reduce global warming. For instance, individuals can make lifestyle changes. Replace an SUV with a regular car; an SUV gives off 100 tons of greenhouse gases over its lifetime, which is far more than a car does. Moderate your use of home heating and air conditioning, most of which is powered by fossil fuels, and upgrade appliances to energy-saving models. Besides, emissions (排放) trading is a good measure. In 1990, rising levels of acid rain were considered an emergency problem. Congress passed an emissions-trading program, which allowed industrial managers to buy and sell permits to emit a limited amount of pollutants that cause acid rain. The acid-rain trading program created a financial motivation to invent technology to reduce acid rain; if a factory or power plant cut its emissions below the limit, it could sell the extra credits at a profit. Once there was money to be made by reducing acid rain, human creativity came into play. The results were spectacular.

Don’t complain in the NBA
The NBA has a new rule this season. It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul(犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.
The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.
But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if football, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?
The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arguing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at referees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s games. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.
All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what the other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.
Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard job. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.
Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referees had to wear a whistle and call a few games, there wouldn’t be as many complaints about the “zero tolerance” rule.

We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把…按能力分班)pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect for their total personality.
We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.
In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.

Every year there are hundreds of earthquakes in different parts of the world. In Sept.1923, Tokyo and Yokohama were both destroyed by an earthquake and the fires that followed it. They had to be completely rebuilt. One of the most serious earthquakes was in China’s Shanxi Province in 1556. It killed almost one million people.
We measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter scale. The Richter scale was introduced in 1935 in Southern California in the USA. It measures earthquakes on a scale of one to ten. Any earthquake measuring five or more is usually serious.
The earth’s crust (地壳) is made up of layers of rock called plates. As these plates move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. In cities such as Tokyo, where small quakes happen quite often, many modern buildings are designed to be flexible so when the earth moves, they move with it.
Earthquakes can also break up gas or oil pipes. This can cause fires to break out, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself.
Another effect of earthquakes is tsunamis (海啸). These are huge waves created by earthquakes beneath the sea. They can be many metres high and cause great damage to coastal towns and cities.
China, Japan, Russia and the USA have the highest occurrence (发生) of earthquakes in the world.

An Event of Imagination
The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will
miss our planet, but two pieces will probably hit the southern half of the Earth.
On 17 July, a piece four kilometers wide enters the Earth's atmosphere with a massive explosion.
About half of the piece is destroyed, but the remaining part hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and a huge hole is made in the seabed. Huge waves are created and spread outwards from the hole. The wall of water, a kilometer high, rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned.
Before the waves reach South America, the second piece of the comet lands in Argentina.
Earthquakes and volcanoes are set off in the Andes Mountains. The shock waves move north into California and all around the Pacific Ocean. The cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. Millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north won't escape for long. Because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, and temperature around the world falls to almost zero. Crops are ruined. The sun won't be seen again for many years. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later, no more than 10 million remain alive.
Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The
dinosaurs (恐龙) were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a piece of object in space. The dinosaurs couldn't live through the cold climate that followed and they died out. Will we meet the same end?

The position of children in American family and society is no longer what it used to be. The 36 family in colonial (殖民时期的) North Americn was mainly concerned with survival and 37 that, its own economic prosperity. Thus, children were 38 in terms of their producitivity (生产能力), and they played the role of producer quite early. 39 they fulfilled this role, their position in the family was one of subordination(附属)。
Which the 40 of the society, the position of children in the family and in the society became more important, In the complex and technological society 41 the United States has become, each 42 must fulfill a number of personal and occupational 43 and be in contact with many other members. 44 , viewing children as necessary members of society means that they are 45 more as people in their own right than as those of subordination. This acepiance of children as 46 participants in the family is reflected in various laws 47 the rights of children and in the social and public welfare programs.
This new 48 of children and the frequent contact between the members of society has also 49 an increasing interest in child-raising techniques. People today spend much time 50 the proper way to 51 children.
Nowadays, the socialization of the child in the United States is a 52 transaction (事务)between parent and child 53 a one-way, parent-to-child training 54 . As a consequence, socializaing children and 55 with them over a long period of time is for parents a mixture of pleasure, satisfaction, and problems.

A smart card is a card that is carried with either a microprocessor and a memory chip or only a memory chip that is not programmable. The microprocessor card can add. delete, and deal with the information on the card, while a memory-chip card can only do one thing.
Smart cards, unlike magnetic stripe cards, can do many different things and hold a lot of information. In this way, they do not need to get information from a faraway place when they are used.
Today, there are several kinds of smart cards, all of which are very popular in the market:
IC (Integrated Circuit) Microprocessor Cards Microprocessor Cards (chip cards) offer a larger memory and better security than the traditional magnetic stripe cards do. Chip cards can also hold data. These cards are used for many things. Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity. Some examples of these cards are:
Cards that hold money.
Cards that provide safe access to a network.
Cards that allow setting stop boxes on televisions to remain safe from privacy.
Optical Memory Cards Optical memory cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top. Optical memory cards can store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data can not be changed or removed. Thus, this type of card is good for keeping records, such as medical files, driving records or travel histories. Today, these have no processors in them (although this is coming in the near future). While the cards are almost as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive.

Since the beginning of human evolution, men have migrated(迁移)across continents in search of food, shelter, safety, and comfortable weather. People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation.
Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.
There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):
Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital(婚姻的) status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.
Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving to places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”
Between March 2005 and March 2007, 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty-six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad.
Title: People on the 71
Lead-in
Throughout human 72 , people have migrated across continents.
An 73 number of people from poor countries are moving to 74 countries, especially neighboring ones.
_75 for people’s migration
According to the CPS, the 76 of people move to other places for reasons 77 to housing.
Americans have long been moving south and west, looking 78 a better job chance, a warmer 79 and a bigger yard, etc.
Conclusion
Now every year more and more people move to other places, which seems to have become a global 80 .

Happy birthday! Do birthday really make people happy? Of course they do.Birthday celebrate the day when we were born.Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggest another year of growth and maturity(成熟)—or so we hope.We all like to imagine that we are getting wiser and not just older.Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others, as well.For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process.But growing old? That is a different story.
Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented(以年轻人为中心)American culture.Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young.As the old saying goes, “You’re young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old.People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom.But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”.
Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden.Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by.Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income.Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference.Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care, and housing.Some even experience age discrimination(歧视).American sociologist Pat Moore once dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets.She was often treated rudely--even cheated and robbed.However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.
Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast.Why? People are living longer.Fewer babies are being born.And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the group of the elderly.America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹)are “in”.Marketing experts are ready noticing this growing group of consumer.

Evelyn Glennie was the first lady of solo percussion in Scotland. In an interview, she recalled how she became a percussion soloist(打击乐器独奏演员) in spite of her disability.

My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every 45 that I have.”
“I was 46 to be assessed as a musician, not as a deaf musician, and I applied to the famous Royal Academy of Music in London. No other deaf student had 47 this before and some teachers 48 my admission. Based on my performance, I was 49 admitted and went on to 50 with the academy’s highest honours.”
“After that, I established myself as the first full-time solo percussionist. I 51 and arranged a lot of musical compositions since 52 had been written specially for solo percussionists.”
“I have been a soloist for over ten years. 53 the doctor thought I was totally deaf, it didn’t 54 that my passion couldn’t be realized. I would encourage people not to allow themselves to be 55 by others. Follow your passion; follow your heart. They will lead you to the place you want to go.”

A new set of brain images shows why : Reading the Roman alphabets and Chinese characters uses different parts of the brain.
The results also suggest that Chinese schoolchildren have reading problems in a different part of the brain used in reading alphabet-based languages. This shows that the learning disorder dyslexia ( inability to read properly) is not the same in very culture and does not have a universal biological cause.
Scientists described the results as “ very important and revolutionary”. While dyslexia has certain common roots, they said, they now have some proof that this kind of functional problem works differently according to the different demands that Western and Eastern languages place on the brain.
Dyslexia is a common developmental disorder in which people of normal intelligence have difficulty learning to read, spell and master other language skills.
The results suggest that treating dyslexia around the world probably will require different treatments.
“Reading is complex,” said Guinevere Eden, Georgetown University professor. “ This shows we need to be more open-minded about diverse treatment approaches.”
Its origins are complex. There appears to be a genetic aspect to the illness. It also may result from brain injury before birth that changes visual and hearing pathways in the brain.
Earlier brain scans show that English-reading dyslexics don’t fun_ction properly in a left part of the brain associated with the awareness of 44 sounds from the English alphabet. However, according to the new study, reading Chinese uses some different parts of the brain located in the left-front of the brain. It is associated with symbol interpretation. Unlike alphabet letters, Chinese characters represent entire thoughts and physical objects.

I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always tight, but we had a 36 over our heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always 37 . Not knowing we were poor, my kids(孩子们) just thought I was 38 . I’ve always been glad about that.
It was Christmas time, and although there wasn’t 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 .
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 43 to share by all five of us.
The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 back at the “Santa’s Workshop”.
Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, 47 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 48 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies — fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didn’t say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, 50 to be angry again. This is what she told me.
“I was looking 51 thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees.’ One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll(玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 54 the doll for her. We have so much and she doesn’t have anything.”

Robot revolution
The day that a robot wakes you up, cleans your room and walks your dog might still be a few decades off. But increasingly, engineers are saying that robots are going to make the leap from the factory floor to your family room.
Companies like Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the Roomba, a robot that can clean floors, are flying off the shelves. On the cover of a recent issue of Scientific American magazine, Bill Gates predicted the “Dawn of the Age of Robots”.
What’s behind this new era (时代)? It’s partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. They are being made smaller and smaller. They are also becoming more and more energy efficient.
A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day Robert Adler invented the television remote control in the 1950s, people around the world have tirelessly searched for ways to get lazier.
Also take into consideration the increasing wealth of rich people, the time appears ripe to introduce robots to ease our daily lives.
To be sure, robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still too complex for our present engineering abilities. Today’s robot revolution is to make them for everyday use. Robots will do basic housework such as cleaning or gardening, or just help you have more fun on the basketball court.
What makes a robot different from an ordinary cleaning machine is not the presence of computer chips (芯片). Nowadays even your microwave has a computer chip. It is the ability to sense and make changes to the environment in real time.
For example, a floor-cleaning robot should be able to sense your scared cat and move out of the way. Today’s computing ability is, for the first time, able to make machines that could “think”, at least in certain limited ways.

任务型阅读:请认真阅读下面短文,在表格中的空格里填上最恰当的单词(每空1个单词)
Since the beginning of human evolution, men have migrated(迁移)across continents in search of food, shelter, safety, and comfortable weather. People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation.
Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.
There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):
Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital(婚姻的) status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.
Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving to places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”
Between March 2005 and March 2007, 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty-six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad.
Title: People on the 71
Lead-in
Throughout human 72 , people have migrated across continents.
An 73 number of people from poor countries are moving to ______74 countries, especially neighboring ones.
75_ for people’s migration
According to the CPS, the 76 of people move to other places for reasons 77 to housing.
Americans have long been moving south and west, looking

Conclusion
Now every year more and more people move to other places, which seems to have become a global 80 .

Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry. Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in present technology. This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones.
“Mobile data is not a dream; it’s not an option but a requirement,” said Len Lauer, head of a US communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.
With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday’s news; a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.
Face-to-face video calls
Don’t worry about getting lost. 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.
However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.
Many European countries have already launched the service. In May 2000 the US Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.
International telecom companies can’t wait to sell 3G in China, the world’s largest mobile telecommunications market. But they will have to be patient. At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services. This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.
“We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service,” said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile. “We expect that the 3G licenses will be issued late next year.”
Third-generation mobile phones (3G mobile phones)
(1) ______________
a. Data speed: (2) ______________ than present technology
b. Video and (3) _____ music
c. Video news programs: (4) ________ four times a day
d. Internet access: quicker and (5) __________

Brazil’s next super star
Rom Ronaldo and Ronaldinho to Kaka and Robinho, Brazil is never short of football stars. If you have ever wondered who could be the next big name, 18-year-old Alexandre Pato is a player to watch.
The teenage striker scored the only goal of the game on March 20 to help AC Milan beat Torino 1-0. The win ensured Milan can still maintain their push for a Champions League spot despite the absence of star playmaker Kaka.
Pato made his start in Serie A only in January and has scored seven goals for his club so far. He also helped Brazil’s national football team win the 2007 South American Youth Championship, which qualified the country for the football competition at the Beijing Olympic Games.
Pato is good at controlling football and moves intelligently. But most of all, he is quick. Looking at him play, it becomes evident why many people have connected him with a young Ronaldo. Yet Pato insists that the praise does not put him under pressure. Instead, he welcomes it. “I was happy to listen to people saying I was a great player. It makes me want to do my best.”
Pato started to play indoor football at the age of three. At only 11, he signed with the Brazilian football club Internacional where he started sharing a house with 83 other teenagers. Much like him, they wanted to make a name for themselves in the club’s senior team.
Luckily, Pato was the one who quickly made his way to the senior team and landed in AC Milan at the end of 2007.
Was it easy for him to settle down in a totally different culture? Pato insists that he has settled in with no problems thanks largely to his compatriots (同胞) in the Italian league. “These are the players I played with on Playstation and watched on television,” he admitted. “My dream of playing with my idol Ronaldo has finally come true.”

Have you ever been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your mind was a million miles away? You probably felt sorry and made up your mind to pay attention and ever have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time.
“On the contrary,” says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology, “daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldn’t get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day. You can’t possibly do all your thinking with a conscious mind. Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one way that the conscious and unconscious states of mind have silent dialogues.”
Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the importance of daydreams or even considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book Daydreaming. Klinger says, “We know now that daydreaming is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures. Daydreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life.” Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. It’s easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficult situations in your life and find out a possible way of dealing with them. Daydreams cannot be predicted; they move off in unexpected direction which may be creative and full of ideas. For many famous artists and scientists, daydreams were and are a main source of creative energy.

Fighting an artificial greenhouse effect is the greatest of environmental challenges, because the cure will not be possible unless almost every nation on the Earth participates.
Will global warming cause harm? Some computer models suggest the world might warm by 5 degrees or more during this century, which might be dangerous. Melting polar ice could raise sea levels, while global warming might cause more intense storms and disrupt the weather patterns that bring rain to agricultural regions. Computer models are just a guess, of course, but when the farming areas that we all depend upon for food rely on current temperatures, rolling the dice (骰子) with the climate cannot be wise. Yet today the United States has no national law regulating greenhouse gases.
There are methods to reduce global warming. For instance, individuals can make lifestyle changes. Replace an SUV with a regular car; an SUV gives off 100 tons of greenhouse gases over its lifetime, which is far more than a car does. Moderate your use of home heating and air conditioning, most of which is powered by fossil fuels, and upgrade appliances to energy-saving models. Besides, emissions (排放) trading is a good measure. In 1990, rising levels of acid rain were considered an emergency problem. Congress passed an emissions-trading program, which allowed industrial managers to buy and sell permits to emit a limited amount of pollutants that cause acid rain. The acid-rain trading program created a financial motivation to invent technology to reduce acid rain; if a factory or power plant cut its emissions below the limit, it could sell the extra credits at a profit. Once there was money to be made by reducing acid rain, human creativity came into play. The results were spectacular.

Quality after-school programs are designed to improve academic performance, decrease youth crimes and other high-risk behaviors, and help young people grow into healthy, successful adults.
The effect of quality after-school programs on academic performance is clear. Studies show that students who take part in such programs show better work habits, higher rates of homework completion, improved grades, and higher scores on achievement tests. They also have fewer absences and are less likely to blame. After-school programs also influence high-risk teen behavior. Various studies show decreased rates of crime, drug use, and teen sex among youth who join in well-run after-school programs when compared to similar youth who do not. Finally, after-school programs play an important role in supporting the following fields of development: physical development, mental development and social development. Thus, one can safely say that after-school programming is an effective method to help young people become contributing members of society.
Although there is enough proof from both small and large assessments that after-school programs can make a positive difference, it is important to note that not all programs are equal.
First, dosage(时量)matters —young people who attend the most hours over the most years benefit more than members who attend less often or over a shorter period of time. Next, after-school programs make a bigger difference for those students who need help most and have the fewest choices. Finally, program qualities matter. After-school programs work best when they create unique opportunities for youth. They should provide opportunities, skill building meaningful involvement(参与), expression suggestion, service, and work. Staff characteristics make an important difference in the quality of a program. The adults should treat youth as partners, create safe and fair environment, encourage personalized(个性化的)involvement, and actively create learning opportunities. In short, although after-school programs have promising future, how they are designed and run matters.

I climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase, my father following with two more. By the time I got to the third floor, I was 36 and at the same time feeling lonely.

Robot revolution
The day that a robot wakes you up, cleans your room and walks your dog might still be a few decades off. But increasingly, engineers are saying that robots are going to make the leap from the factory floor to your family room.
Companies like Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the Roomba, a robot that can clean floors, are flying off the shelves. On the cover of a recent issue of Scientific American magazine, Bill Gates predicted the “Dawn of the Age of Robots”.
What’s behind this new era (时代)? It’s partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. They are being made smaller and smaller. They are also becoming more and more energy efficient.
A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day Robert Adler invented the television remote control in the 1950s, people around the world have tirelessly searched for ways to get lazier.
Also take into consideration the increasing wealth of rich people, the time appears ripe to introduce robots to ease our daily lives.
To be sure, robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still too complex for our present engineering abilities. Today’s robot revolution is to make them for everyday use. Robots will do basic housework such as cleaning or gardening, or just help you have more fun on the basketball court.
What makes a robot different from an ordinary cleaning machine is not the presence of computer chips (芯片). Nowadays even your microwave has a computer chip. It is the ability to sense and make changes to the environment in real time.
For example, a floor-cleaning robot should be able to sense your scared cat and move out of the way. Today’s computing ability is, for the first time, able to make machines that could “think”, at least in certain limited ways.
