2010年中考英語備考名師精品資料――完形填空
一、解題策略指導(dǎo)
完形填空(Clozetest)是初中英語試題中必考題型。完形填空主要測試學(xué)生在具體語言環(huán)境中對文章的篇章結(jié)構(gòu)、中心思想、推理判斷、詞語辨析、習(xí)慣用法、固定搭配等方面的能力要求,及對所學(xué)英語的綜合運(yùn)用能力、快速閱讀理解能力及邏輯推理判斷能力等。這種題型歸納起來有如下特點(diǎn):
1.在整份試卷中所占的分值較重,占10—15%,短文長度一般在130—200個(gè)單詞左右。
2.降低了對單詞本身的考查要求,重點(diǎn)考查考生對短文的整體理解,上下文的段落銜接,情理分析及推理判斷能力。
3.針對初中學(xué)生的實(shí)際水平,一般采用故事類、說明類短文,盡量避免專業(yè)性太強(qiáng)的文章或論文體。近年來出現(xiàn)了以意義選擇為主、語法選擇逐漸減少的趨勢。
完形填空有多種形式,但它在基本設(shè)計(jì)原則上都是一致的。形式都是從短文中抽去若干個(gè)詞或短語,讓考生根據(jù)上下文填入適當(dāng)?shù)脑~或短語,為了有助于考生填入適當(dāng)?shù)脑~,可以提供四個(gè)答案(其中包括一個(gè)正確答案),讓考生選出正確的答案;從所給的單詞中,選擇適當(dāng)?shù)脑~并用其正確形式填空;也可以給出單詞首字母作提示將短文補(bǔ)全;也可以不給考生提供任何線索,完全憑借考生對文章的理解和現(xiàn)有的語言能力完成。最常見的還是選擇型的完形填空。
抽詞的辦法可以是有針對性地抽取,也可以是隨機(jī)地抽取。但目前比較流行的是對文章理解能力的考查,而不是單純對語法結(jié)構(gòu)的考查。
完形填空要求考生不僅要會(huì)運(yùn)用自己學(xué)過的詞匯和語法知識妥善地處理好每個(gè)單句,理解語義,還要處理好單句之間以及單句與全文之間的內(nèi)在關(guān)系,選出適當(dāng)?shù)脑~填上,使文章完整與通順。
完形填空題要求填入的詞主要有:構(gòu)成各種時(shí)態(tài)和用法區(qū)別的動(dòng)詞及短語動(dòng)詞;名詞和介詞;根據(jù)上下文意思及結(jié)構(gòu)必須填入的形容詞、副詞、代詞和連詞;同義詞、近義詞等易混詞??疾橐詫?shí)詞為主,兼顧虛詞和語法結(jié)構(gòu)。難點(diǎn)主要集中在根據(jù)上下文作正確判斷的詞的用法上。
在做完形填空題時(shí),通常先弄清語境,并依據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行合理的分析、判斷,才能作出恰當(dāng)?shù)倪x擇。具體可分為以下三步:
1.通覽全文,了解大意
答題時(shí),應(yīng)先越過空檔,通讀全文,理順題意,找出信息詞。這是做好完形填空題的關(guān)鍵。因?yàn)橥晷翁羁盏奶攸c(diǎn)是著眼于整體理解。我們?nèi)绻讯涛谋茸鳝h(huán)環(huán)相扣的鏈條,那么由于空格的設(shè)置,“鏈條”從第二句起有些地方就脫節(jié)了。有些同學(xué)習(xí)慣于提筆就填或邊讀邊填,急于求成,然而,欲速則不達(dá),結(jié)果往往由于“只見樹木不見森林”而事倍功半。因此我們應(yīng)該依據(jù)首句給的啟示,通過邏輯思維,借助短文中關(guān)鍵詞所提供的信息,越過空檔,盡快把全文讀完,建立語言的整體感,幫助我們了解短文大意。
2.綜合考慮,先易后難
通覽全文后,認(rèn)真觀察選項(xiàng),瞻前顧后,仔細(xì)推敲,逐項(xiàng)選定。經(jīng)過通讀全文,對短文有了整體印象。在此基礎(chǔ)上,可以根據(jù)全文大意,展開邏輯思維,分析這一空格處在句中的地位,前后的關(guān)系和它所起的作用,確定最佳答案。遇到困難,暫放一邊,先易后難,這是解題之道。當(dāng)遇到難以判斷的空檔時(shí),不妨先放一邊,繼續(xù)往下做。因?yàn)橛行┐鸢甘潜仨毻ㄟ^下文的理解后才能作出斷定的。有時(shí),前后信息之間還有相互提示作用。因此,當(dāng)我們遇到難題時(shí),不能久久停留于此,這樣會(huì)浪費(fèi)不必要的時(shí)間。
3.復(fù)讀檢驗(yàn),消除疏漏
完成所有空檔后,還要再次通讀全文,看看這時(shí)的短文行文是否流暢,意義是否連貫,邏輯關(guān)系是否合理。復(fù)查時(shí),可從語法入手,檢查一下句子的時(shí)態(tài)、主謂一致、代詞的性、數(shù)、格以及詞語的搭配等是否正確。凡遇疑點(diǎn),必須根據(jù)文章的中心思想,從意義、語法的角度來仔細(xì)權(quán)衡,加以改正,彌補(bǔ)疏漏。
二、范例解析引路

首先,通覽全文。通過通覽全文,便知本文講述許多人學(xué)習(xí)英語。學(xué)習(xí)英語的人年齡不同,目的各異。其次,本著先易后難的原則開始填空,先根據(jù)上下文和自己的語感,推測部分空格的可能答案。然后,再結(jié)合選項(xiàng)逐一敲定。
1.選B。some...other(s)...意思是“一些……另一些(泛指)”;some...theother(s)...意思是“一些……另一些(特指)”。由語境可知,在學(xué)英語的學(xué)生中,除一部分是孩子外,剩余的是青年人(特指)。
2.選A。根據(jù)上下文可知是English。
3.選B。由文章內(nèi)容來看,人們學(xué)習(xí)英語的原因多種多樣,因此回答為什么那么多人學(xué)習(xí)英語這個(gè)問題并不容易。
4.選D。由常識可知,English是學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的科目(subject)之一。
5.選B。根據(jù)前后文意可知許多人學(xué)習(xí)英語,那是因?yàn)镋nglish在他們的工作中很有用(useful)。
6.選A。本題屬于介詞用法辨析。介詞for在此可表示目的、原因。
7.選A。inEnglish是習(xí)慣搭配。
8.選D?!白x報(bào)”英語習(xí)慣說readnewspapers。
9.選B。根據(jù)語境及句子結(jié)構(gòu),有些人學(xué)習(xí)英語或想出國(gotoacountry)或想在這些國家工作(workinacountry)。
10.選D。末句點(diǎn)題,"英語在我們生活中是很有幫助的(helpful)"。
最后,復(fù)讀檢驗(yàn)。將所有答案代入空格后,重新將短文復(fù)讀一遍,如果語句通順,語意清楚,便結(jié)束本題,轉(zhuǎn)做其它試題。
最后須提醒大家一點(diǎn),做好完形填空題并非一日之功。我們應(yīng)從平日學(xué)習(xí)中做起,多積累,勤學(xué)苦練,方可成功!

本文是向考生介紹一個(gè)特殊的日子——BuyNothingDay,因此第1空應(yīng)填called。既然是BuyNothingDay,那就應(yīng)該是不讓人們“購物(goshopping)”。第3空考查常識,BuyNothingDay的日期是November29,應(yīng)該在Thanksgiving之后,故此空白處應(yīng)填after?!翱匆姀V告”通常應(yīng)在報(bào)紙上或電視上,因此第4空白處應(yīng)填newspapers。結(jié)合文意可知第5空白處應(yīng)填寫一個(gè)動(dòng)詞,并且能用動(dòng)詞不定式作復(fù)合賓語,此動(dòng)詞應(yīng)是tell,此處應(yīng)用“動(dòng)詞-ing”形式,即telling。第6空白處所在的句子是介紹BuyNothingDay的起源,是過去的事情,應(yīng)用started?,F(xiàn)在,世界各地也像慶祝其他節(jié)日一樣來慶祝BuyNothingDay,因此第7個(gè)空白處應(yīng)填寫celebrate(慶祝)。第8空白處應(yīng)填parents與children對應(yīng)。第9空白處應(yīng)填together與動(dòng)詞get構(gòu)成gettogether短語,意思是“團(tuán)聚”。第10空白處應(yīng)填why來澄清“theydon’tneedalotoftoys”的原因。

2010年中考英語備考句型轉(zhuǎn)換
如何備考句型轉(zhuǎn)換
句型轉(zhuǎn)換是中考英語試題中常見的題型之一,同時(shí)也是孝感市中考英語試題中考的題型之一。
一、考點(diǎn)解讀
該題型主要是考查學(xué)生對英語句型的掌握情況和靈活運(yùn)用的能力。命題形式一般是給出一個(gè)英語句子,要求考生根據(jù)所提要求改寫這個(gè)句子,其中的同義詞轉(zhuǎn)換是英語句型轉(zhuǎn)換的一種重要形式,也是孝感市中考命題的一個(gè)熱點(diǎn)。此題型主要考查對英語詞匯、句型的掌握情況和靈活運(yùn)用的能力。其特點(diǎn)是涉及面廣,語言點(diǎn)多,方式靈活,要求較嚴(yán),難度較大。
二、常見同義句轉(zhuǎn)換十大類型

Ⅱso…that/too…to…/…enoughto…
1.Theboysoyoungthathecan’tgotoschool.
2.Lindeworkedvery hardsohecaughtupwithherclassmates.
Lindaworkedhard______catchupwithherclassmates.
析:too…to2enoughto
常見替換 so…that否定從句
→too…to…/not+(形容詞原形) enough to
Ⅲ 主句+after+從句→not…until…
Xiaopinglefttheclassroomafterhefinishedhimhomework.
Xiaoping___leavetheclassroom____hefinishedhishomework.
析:didn’tuntil
常見替換:主語+短暫性動(dòng)詞+after+從句
→ 主語+短暫性動(dòng)詞的否定式+…+until從句。
Ⅳ 完成時(shí)與一般過去時(shí)的轉(zhuǎn)換
1.Heboughtanewcarcastyear.
He__?。撸遖newcarforayear.
2.hisunclediedtwoyearsago.
Hisunclehas_____________fortwoyears.
常見替換:主語加過去式(短暫性動(dòng)詞)+過去時(shí)間狀語
→主語+have/has+PP(延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞短語)+for/since結(jié)構(gòu)
→It’s+時(shí)間段+since+一般過去時(shí)
→時(shí)間段(主語)+hepassed+sine+一般過去時(shí)

三解題方法
1.吃透原句。在答題時(shí),首先要弄清所給句子的句型結(jié)構(gòu),主語的人稱和數(shù),謂語動(dòng)詞的形式以及全句的意思。
2.明確類型。要弄懂題意,看清所屬類型,不要盲目動(dòng)筆。
3.注意時(shí)態(tài)一致,即原句為什么時(shí)態(tài)句子應(yīng)用什么時(shí)態(tài)。
四、備考建議:
1.課堂上盡可能多用“英英式”教學(xué),即用學(xué)生已知的簡單英語去解釋學(xué)生未知的英語。
2.強(qiáng)化“一種漢語多種英語表達(dá)”的訓(xùn)練。
3.強(qiáng)化名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)、形容詞的級、動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)、語態(tài)以及動(dòng)詞的ing形式、過去式和過去分詞的訓(xùn)練及記憶。
4.幫助學(xué)生歸納,對各種類型要精講精練,不要盲目搞題海戰(zhàn)。
2010屆中考英語完形填空
2010年中考英語備考名師精品資料――完形填空
一、解題策略指導(dǎo)
完形填空(Clozetest)是初中英語試題中必考題型。完形填空主要測試學(xué)生在具體語言環(huán)境中對文章的篇章結(jié)構(gòu)、中心思想、推理判斷、詞語辨析、習(xí)慣用法、固定搭配等方面的能力要求,及對所學(xué)英語的綜合運(yùn)用能力、快速閱讀理解能力及邏輯推理判斷能力等。這種題型歸納起來有如下特點(diǎn):
1.在整份試卷中所占的分值較重,占10—15%,短文長度一般在130—200個(gè)單詞左右。
2.降低了對單詞本身的考查要求,重點(diǎn)考查考生對短文的整體理解,上下文的段落銜接,情理分析及推理判斷能力。
3.針對初中學(xué)生的實(shí)際水平,一般采用故事類、說明類短文,盡量避免專業(yè)性太強(qiáng)的文章或論文體。近年來出現(xiàn)了以意義選擇為主、語法選擇逐漸減少的趨勢。
完形填空有多種形式,但它在基本設(shè)計(jì)原則上都是一致的。形式都是從短文中抽去若干個(gè)詞或短語,讓考生根據(jù)上下文填入適當(dāng)?shù)脑~或短語,為了有助于考生填入適當(dāng)?shù)脑~,可以提供四個(gè)答案(其中包括一個(gè)正確答案),讓考生選出正確的答案;從所給的單詞中,選擇適當(dāng)?shù)脑~并用其正確形式填空;也可以給出單詞首字母作提示將短文補(bǔ)全;也可以不給考生提供任何線索,完全憑借考生對文章的理解和現(xiàn)有的語言能力完成。最常見的還是選擇型的完形填空。
抽詞的辦法可以是有針對性地抽取,也可以是隨機(jī)地抽取。但目前比較流行的是對文章理解能力的考查,而不是單純對語法結(jié)構(gòu)的考查。
完形填空要求考生不僅要會(huì)運(yùn)用自己學(xué)過的詞匯和語法知識妥善地處理好每個(gè)單句,理解語義,還要處理好單句之間以及單句與全文之間的內(nèi)在關(guān)系,選出適當(dāng)?shù)脑~填上,使文章完整與通順。
完形填空題要求填入的詞主要有:構(gòu)成各種時(shí)態(tài)和用法區(qū)別的動(dòng)詞及短語動(dòng)詞;名詞和介詞;根據(jù)上下文意思及結(jié)構(gòu)必須填入的形容詞、副詞、代詞和連詞;同義詞、近義詞等易混詞。考查以實(shí)詞為主,兼顧虛詞和語法結(jié)構(gòu)。難點(diǎn)主要集中在根據(jù)上下文作正確判斷的詞的用法上。
在做完形填空題時(shí),通常先弄清語境,并依據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行合理的分析、判斷,才能作出恰當(dāng)?shù)倪x擇。具體可分為以下三步:
1.通覽全文,了解大意
答題時(shí),應(yīng)先越過空檔,通讀全文,理順題意,找出信息詞。這是做好完形填空題的關(guān)鍵。因?yàn)橥晷翁羁盏奶攸c(diǎn)是著眼于整體理解。我們?nèi)绻讯涛谋茸鳝h(huán)環(huán)相扣的鏈條,那么由于空格的設(shè)置,“鏈條”從第二句起有些地方就脫節(jié)了。有些同學(xué)習(xí)慣于提筆就填或邊讀邊填,急于求成,然而,欲速則不達(dá),結(jié)果往往由于“只見樹木不見森林”而事倍功半。因此我們應(yīng)該依據(jù)首句給的啟示,通過邏輯思維,借助短文中關(guān)鍵詞所提供的信息,越過空檔,盡快把全文讀完,建立語言的整體感,幫助我們了解短文大意。
2.綜合考慮,先易后難
通覽全文后,認(rèn)真觀察選項(xiàng),瞻前顧后,仔細(xì)推敲,逐項(xiàng)選定。經(jīng)過通讀全文,對短文有了整體印象。在此基礎(chǔ)上,可以根據(jù)全文大意,展開邏輯思維,分析這一空格處在句中的地位,前后的關(guān)系和它所起的作用,確定最佳答案。遇到困難,暫放一邊,先易后難,這是解題之道。當(dāng)遇到難以判斷的空檔時(shí),不妨先放一邊,繼續(xù)往下做。因?yàn)橛行┐鸢甘潜仨毻ㄟ^下文的理解后才能作出斷定的。有時(shí),前后信息之間還有相互提示作用。因此,當(dāng)我們遇到難題時(shí),不能久久停留于此,這樣會(huì)浪費(fèi)不必要的時(shí)間。
3.復(fù)讀檢驗(yàn),消除疏漏
完成所有空檔后,還要再次通讀全文,看看這時(shí)的短文行文是否流暢,意義是否連貫,邏輯關(guān)系是否合理。復(fù)查時(shí),可從語法入手,檢查一下句子的時(shí)態(tài)、主謂一致、代詞的性、數(shù)、格以及詞語的搭配等是否正確。凡遇疑點(diǎn),必須根據(jù)文章的中心思想,從意義、語法的角度來仔細(xì)權(quán)衡,加以改正,彌補(bǔ)疏漏。
二、范例解析引路
例一:
EveryyearstudentsinmanycountrieslearnEnglish.Someofthesestudentsarechildren,__1__studentsareyoungpeople.Whydoallthesepeoplewanttolearn__2__?Itisnot__3__toanswerthisquestion.ManyboysandgirlslearnEnglishatschool.Itisoneoftheir__4__.ManypeoplelearnEnglishbecauseitis__5__intheirwork.SomeyoungpeoplelearnEnglish__6__theirhigherstudiesbecausesomeoftheirbooksare__7__English.OtherpeoplelearnEnglishbecausetheywantto__8__newspapersinEnglish.SomepeoplelearnEnglishbecausetheywantto__9__intheUSA,EnglandorAustralia.Englishisvery__10__inourlife.
1.A.allB.theother C.bothD.other
2.A.EnglishB.Chinese C.mathsD.Japanese
3.A.hardB.easyC.goodD.nice
4.A.booksB.classes C.schoolsD.subjects
5.A.goodB.usefulC.fineD.pleased
6.A.forB.ofC.toD.from
7.A.inB.withC.atD.of
8.A.lookB.seeC.lookatD.read
9.A.goB.workC.likeD.come
10.A.helpB.helping C.helpsD.helpful
首先,通覽全文。通過通覽全文,便知本文講述許多人學(xué)習(xí)英語。學(xué)習(xí)英語的人年齡不同,目的各異。其次,本著先易后難的原則開始填空,先根據(jù)上下文和自己的語感,推測部分空格的可能答案。然后,再結(jié)合選項(xiàng)逐一敲定。
1.選B。some...other(s)...意思是“一些……另一些(泛指)”;some...theother(s)...意思是“一些……另一些(特指)”。由語境可知,在學(xué)英語的學(xué)生中,除一部分是孩子外,剩余的是青年人(特指)。
2.選A。根據(jù)上下文可知是English。
3.選B。由文章內(nèi)容來看,人們學(xué)習(xí)英語的原因多種多樣,因此回答為什么那么多人學(xué)習(xí)英語這個(gè)問題并不容易。
4.選D。由常識可知,English是學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的科目(subject)之一。
5.選B。根據(jù)前后文意可知許多人學(xué)習(xí)英語,那是因?yàn)镋nglish在他們的工作中很有用(useful)。
6.選A。本題屬于介詞用法辨析。介詞for在此可表示目的、原因。
7.選A。inEnglish是習(xí)慣搭配。
8.選D?!白x報(bào)”英語習(xí)慣說readnewspapers。
9.選B。根據(jù)語境及句子結(jié)構(gòu),有些人學(xué)習(xí)英語或想出國(gotoacountry)或想在這些國家工作(workinacountry)。
10.選D。末句點(diǎn)題,"英語在我們生活中是很有幫助的(helpful)"。
最后,復(fù)讀檢驗(yàn)。將所有答案代入空格后,重新將短文復(fù)讀一遍,如果語句通順,語意清楚,便結(jié)束本題,轉(zhuǎn)做其它試題。
最后須提醒大家一點(diǎn),做好完形填空題并非一日之功。我們應(yīng)從平日學(xué)習(xí)中做起,多積累,勤學(xué)苦練,方可成功!
例二:
parent,tell,call,celebrate,together,why,start,after,shop,newspaperMostpeoplebuylotsofpresentsjustbeforeChristmas.Butsomepeoplethinkwebuytoomuch.Theyhavestartedaspecialday(1)_______BuyNothingDay.Theydon’twantanyonetogo(2)_______onthatday.BuyNothingDayisNovember29.Itis(3)_______Thanksgiving.Often,beforeChristmasweseemanyadsin(4)_______andonTV(5)_________usto“buy,buy,buy!”TheideaforBuyNothingDay(6)_______inVancouver,Canada.Nowpeopleallovertheworld(7)_______BuyNothingDay.InCalifornia,theUS,(8)_________andchildrenget(9)_______toreadstories,singsongs,anddrawpictures.Thechildrentalkabout(10)_______theydon’tneedalotoftoys.?
本文是向考生介紹一個(gè)特殊的日子——BuyNothingDay,因此第1空應(yīng)填called。既然是BuyNothingDay,那就應(yīng)該是不讓人們“購物(goshopping)”。第3空考查常識,BuyNothingDay的日期是November29,應(yīng)該在Thanksgiving之后,故此空白處應(yīng)填after?!翱匆姀V告”通常應(yīng)在報(bào)紙上或電視上,因此第4空白處應(yīng)填newspapers。結(jié)合文意可知第5空白處應(yīng)填寫一個(gè)動(dòng)詞,并且能用動(dòng)詞不定式作復(fù)合賓語,此動(dòng)詞應(yīng)是tell,此處應(yīng)用“動(dòng)詞-ing”形式,即telling。第6空白處所在的句子是介紹BuyNothingDay的起源,是過去的事情,應(yīng)用started?,F(xiàn)在,世界各地也像慶祝其他節(jié)日一樣來慶祝BuyNothingDay,因此第7個(gè)空白處應(yīng)填寫celebrate(慶祝)。第8空白處應(yīng)填parents與children對應(yīng)。第9空白處應(yīng)填together與動(dòng)詞get構(gòu)成gettogether短語,意思是“團(tuán)聚”。第10空白處應(yīng)填why來澄清“theydon’tneedalotoftoys”的原因。
