专题二十六 完形填空之三夹叙夹议型
(原卷版)
从近两年的高考完形填空来看,很多的完形填空往往在平淡的叙述中蕴含深刻的人生哲理,对于这一点考生不但要理解文章的字面意思,更重要的是挖掘文章的内涵,只有做到这一点才能透彻理解文章,做好完形填空。夹叙夹议型的完形填空一般又以下三个特征:
1.先叙述自己的某一个生活经历或见闻,然后真对这一事件发表自己对生活的看法,或揭示生活的真理。
2.作者先提出一种观点或看法。然后围绕这一观点或看法用具体的事例加以说明,有时也可能用几个事例从不同的侧面来说明。
3.提出一种观点或见解,然后用某一事例来阐述这一观点,最后再进一步的总结和升华。对于夹叙夹议类的完形填空,抓住作者要说明的观点或要阐述的生活哲理是做好这一类型题目的关键,而作者叙述所发生的事件或生活经历只是为表达其思想服务的。

完型填空解题方法
一、利用句首信息,推测语篇主旨
完形填空所选短文的第一句常为主题句,一般不设空。把握了主题句对于理解全文和解题很有帮助。
二、寻找提示信息,重现语境意义
完形填空主要考查考生对语境的理解,所以考生在做题时要有全局观念,进行连贯性思维,要把每个空白处的含义与前后句的意思联系起来理解,进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。难选之处通常前后多有提示,这种提示多为后面提示前面。
一般来说,完型填空的四个选项形式完全相同,如都是动词原形,都是副词,都是名词复数形式等,所以要注意他们在意义上和搭配上的细微差别,形义兼顾。同时,一定要把这些选项放到特定的语境里进行区分,判别,从而选出正确答案。
三、识别语篇标志,理清逻辑关系
语篇一般指比句子长的语言单位,如句群、段落、篇章等。语篇与语篇之间往往有表明其内在联系的词语,这些词被称为“语篇标志”。如表示结构层次的语篇标志语有firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally等;表示逻辑关系的语篇标志语有thus ,therefore, so等;表示改变话题的语篇标志语有by the way 等;表示递进关系的语篇标志语有besides,what’s more,furthermore等;表示时间关系的语篇标志语有before,so for ,yet ,meanwhile ,later等;表示转折关系的语篇标志语有but, while ,although等。在做完形填空时,如果能充分利用这些语篇标志语,就可以迅速理清文章的脉络,弄清上下文的关系。
四、利用原词复现,寻找近义词语
完型填空试题中,有些词语常常重复出现在语篇之中。词汇复现的语用意义使得语篇中的句子相互衔接和连贯,从而构成一个完整而又有机的意义整体。在阅读文章的过程中,有时也会发现一些与选项意义紧密相连的同义词或近义词。因此要学会充分利用这些词提供的有效信息进行合理的推侧判断,选出正确答案。
五、词语的习惯用法和固定搭配
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。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。
完形填空的解题步骤
细读首句,跳过空格,通读全文, 把握大意,结合选项,综合考虑,初定答案,瞻前顾后,先易后难,个个击破,再读全文,反复检查。总之:把握整体,具体分析。

专题二十六完形填空之三 夹叙夹议型
(解析版)
从近两年的高考完形填空来看,很多的完形填空往往在平淡的叙述中蕴含深刻的人生哲理,对于这一点考生不但要理解文章的字面意思,更重要的是挖掘文章的内涵,只有做到这一点才能透彻理解文章,做好完形填空。夹叙夹议型的完形填空一般又以下三个特征:
1.先叙述自己的某一个生活经历或见闻,然后真对这一事件发表自己对生活的看法,或揭示生活的真理。
2.作者先提出一种观点或看法。然后围绕这一观点或看法用具体的事例加以说明,有时也可能用几个事例从不同的侧面来说明。
3.提出一种观点或见解,然后用某一事例来阐述这一观点,最后再进一步的总结和升华。对于夹叙夹议类的完形填空,抓住作者要说明的观点或要阐述的生活哲理是做好这一类型题目的关键,而作者叙述所发生的事件或生活经历只是为表达其思想服务的。

完型填空解题方法
一、利用句首信息,推测语篇主旨
完形填空所选短文的第一句常为主题句,一般不设空。把握了主题句对于理解全文和解题很有帮助。
二、寻找提示信息,重现语境意义
完形填空主要考查考生对语境的理解,所以考生在做题时要有全局观念,进行连贯性思维,要把每个空白处的含义与前后句的意思联系起来理解,进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。难选之处通常前后多有提示,这种提示多为后面提示前面。
一般来说,完型填空的四个选项形式完全相同,如都是动词原形,都是副词,都是名词复数形式等,所以要注意他们在意义上和搭配上的细微差别,形义兼顾。同时,一定要把这些选项放到特定的语境里进行区分,判别,从而选出正确答案。
三、识别语篇标志,理清逻辑关系
语篇一般指比句子长的语言单位,如句群、段落、篇章等。语篇与语篇之间往往有表明其内在联系的词语,这些词被称为“语篇标志”。如表示结构层次的语篇标志语有firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally等;表示逻辑关系的语篇标志语有thus ,therefore, so等;表示改变话题的语篇标志语有by the way 等;表示递进关系的语篇标志语有besides,what’s more,furthermore等;表示时间关系的语篇标志语有before,so for ,yet ,meanwhile ,later等;表示转折关系的语篇标志语有but, while ,although等。在做完形填空时,如果能充分利用这些语篇标志语,就可以迅速理清文章的脉络,弄清上下文的关系。
四、利用原词复现,寻找近义词语
完型填空试题中,有些词语常常重复出现在语篇之中。词汇复现的语用意义使得语篇中的句子相互衔接和连贯,从而构成一个完整而又有机的意义整体。在阅读文章的过程中,有时也会发现一些与选项意义紧密相连的同义词或近义词。因此要学会充分利用这些词提供的有效信息进行合理的推侧判断,选出正确答案。
五、词语的习惯用法和固定搭配
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。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。
完形填空的解题步骤
细读首句,跳过空格,通读全文, 把握大意,结合选项,综合考虑,初定答案,瞻前顾后,先易后难,个个击破,再读全文,反复检查。总之:把握整体,具体分析。
