利用生活常识和文化背景解题
完形填空的语篇中往往渗透着诸如文化科学、历史地理、风俗民情等方面的知识。考生在做题时,若能积极地调动自己掌握的文化背景知识和生活常识,巧妙地加以运用,特别是注意中西文化的差异,将会大大简化复杂的分析与判断过程,节省宝贵的时间,从而轻松地做出正确判断。另外,利用生活常识和文化背景解题也需要考生结合逻辑推断,谨慎选择。
[典例]1
(2017全国卷II) Through the years, I'd run into former students who would provide 51 on old classmates.
51. A. assessments B. comments C. instructions D. updates
分析:D。根据常识我们可知,老师碰到教过的学生,这些学生会提供老同学的“最新消息”。
【典例】2
Getting a little 46.closer,_I realized one kayak (皮划艇) was in 47.trouble. “Something's not 48.right!” I took off my Tshirt and __49__ into the water. I saw there were two instructors on board and a man lying across the middle. He was 50.shaking violently. Linking arms with one of the instructors, I helped __51__ the young man out of the water. He was unconscious and as I looked at his face, something 52.occurred to me. Those brown eyes were very 53.familiar. “What's his name?” I asked the instructor. “Ben,” he replied, and immediately I 54.knew. That stranger was my son!
49.A.stared B.ank C.dived D.fell
51.A.lead B.persuade C.carry D.keep
[分析] 49.选C 51.选C 这两道题可以利用生活常识和文化背景解题。根据生活常识,第49题我注意到一个皮划艇出了意外情况,我自然是脱掉T恤衫,“跳进”水里救人,dive意为“跳水”;第51题作者和一位教练双臂连接,两个人一起应该是将这个不省人事的年轻人“抬”出了水面,用carry表示“抬”。
