完型填空試題主要特點
高考完型填空通常從一篇250詞左右,夾敘夾議的文章中設空20個,首句不挖空.沒有嚴格遵循答題步驟:很多考生一拿到完形填空題就急于選擇答案,不認真分析通篇文章,單純求快,忽略語篇理解,只看局部的詞義辨析、搭配和語法結構。表面上解題速度挺快,但是這種見樹不見林的做法只會影響解題的質量和效率。
正確的完形填空的解題步驟
細讀首句,跳過空格,通讀全文, 把握大意.結合選項,綜合考慮,初定答案.瞻前顧后,先易后難, 個個擊破.再讀全文,反復檢查.
細讀文章的第一句話:
高考完形填空選文的第一句話通常是完整的。該句往往就是主題句(Topic Sentence),這就為我們理解文章的內在聯系提供了一個“窗口”,它的句意往往為全文提供中心信息,能直接概括全文大意、揭示主題。
充分重視首句的標示作用,利用它為解題找到一個突破口,據此展開思維,爭取開局勝利。
對于敘事,描述類文章。短文的首句,往往點明故事發生的人物(who),時間(when),地點(where),和事件(what)等背景情況。例:
It was a busy morning,about 8:30,when an elderly gentleman in his 80s came to the hospital .
對于論述文,首句表明了論述的主題。起到揭示主題的作用。例如:
A man who knows how to write a personal letter has a very powerful tool. A letter can be enjoyed, read and 21 .
