完成时间: 月 日 天气:
一、中考完形命题特点、解题策略、以阅读促各方面能力
完形填空的过程就是由已知信息推出未知信息的过程,重点检测考生的分析和连贯思维的能力。完形填空的考查侧重语篇,注重语境,讲究整体和体现运用,而且考查内容多关注情节发展的内在逻辑联系及词语运用能力。 这就要求学生熟练运用所掌握的词汇知识,习惯用语,语法知识,句法结构,而且要有一定的语篇领悟能力,逻辑思维能力和语言感悟能力, 近年来试题所设计的知识面不断拓宽,特别强调对语篇及上下文的理解和应用。
二、中考试题的特点
1、体裁一般为记叙文,选材源于英美原版文章,对文化差异性的把控和理解要求较高。
2、在语言层面上,所选素材的语言地道、真实。文章为记叙文,语言真实、地道,平实简练,没有复杂的语言和生僻的表达方式。
3、话题贴近学生生活,立意积极向上 ,融入对考生情感态度和价值观的正向引导,考生答题过程就是一次潜移默化的接受人文熏陶的过程。
4、题目设计继续坚持在语篇层面考查学生准确使用语言的能力。
三、解题步骤:
1、通览:跳过空格,速读全文,把握大意。勾划标题、首句(段)尾句(段)以及有中文注释的单词,打开答题窗口,窥探全文。概略了解文章的体裁、背景、内容、结构层次、情节、写作风格等等。了解时间、地点、人物、事件。
2、初选:瞻前顾后,先易后难,运用解题策略从从句子、段落、语篇层面解题,划出语篇标志,找准关键词、注意连词。紧扣文意,联系上下文和语境,展开逻辑推理,注意从上下文中寻找线索,注意词汇的意义、搭配,惯用法,语法。选择填空,但是必须有依据,同时将信息支撑点划出来。
3、复核:代入答案,再读全文,反复检查 争取做到:结构正确+语义通顺+逻辑合理+ 首尾呼应。
四、解题策略:
1、寻找人物、事件
记叙文通常是中考完形填空的主打体裁。通常所选的记叙文有完整的故事情节、清晰的写作思路和富有深刻的思想和教育内涵,首句通常会交代文章的人物、时间、地点、事件等内容。通常以人物或者时间为主线来叙述。
2、利用前、后暗示
暗示分前后两种,下文的填空答案可从上文中找到叫前暗示;上文的填空答案可从下文中找到叫后暗示;也就是说前面的空项从当时的情况来看,或是线索不清,或是语境不明,无法填出,但只要考生继续往下读,就会发现此空在后面的某个地方有暗示。
3、利用上下文进行逻辑推理
逻辑推理法也叫语境推测法,是我们在做完形填空题时使用的十分重要的方法之一。完型填空是一篇有完整内容的文章,各行各段之间有着逻辑上的必然联系,必须在掌握全文的主旨大意的前提下,通过对故事的线索、短文各段的逻辑关系、短文内容之间的逻辑关系及人物情感的发展等的分析和理解,选出答案。
有些过渡词语在文章中起着承上启下的作用,也是不可忽视的内容。如:
表示强调词语in a word, in my eyes, indeed, certainly,
表示对比的词on the other hand, although, of course, after all, 连词but, or, however,
表示作者态度的词语must, should, have to, I’d like to,you’d better,
表示否定意义的词nothing, hardly, never, few, little,
表示次序的 at first, at last, then, next等,
尽管这些词微不足道,但由于有衔接功能,并能表明句与句之间的语义关系,其作用是不可低估的。
句与句之间的逻辑关系主要有:
并列关系(and,while…),
转折关系(but, however,though, whereas, yet, otherwise, nevertheless..),
顺序关系(before, after,then, finally…),
让步关系(although,despite…),
因果关系(so, thus, for…),
解释关系(i.e.,that is to say…),
条件关系(if, in case…),
递进关系(moreover,besides, furthermore, what's more, in addition to, as well as…)

I’ve been 64 these seven wolves for hours, keeping a good distance (距离) between us so they don’t feel 65 . There’s probably no other place on Earth than Ellesmere Island (Canada’s northernmost island) where wolves would let a human sit alongside them like I’m doing. For this 66 , I traveled here to join a documentary (纪录片) film team.
They 67 I was there, but they hadn’t paid any attention to me—until now. I 68 as our eyes meet. No matter how playful they appeared a few minutes before, I remember that these are 69 wild animals.
The wolves begin to walk toward me. But they 70 me before stopping at their preferred prey (猎物). Most of the meat is 71 , but enough for each wolf to have something to eat. Every few minutes, one of the wolves looks over at me, but none of them seem 72 . I relax a little as I watch them eat.
After they finish feeding on the prey, they walk slowly to the grass for a 73 . The young stay together while each older wolf finds a comfortable place alone.
Many hours later, they begin to wake up. It’s time to eat again. What happens next makes me 74 : The three older wolves run off into the hills for food, leaving me with the young! I suppose they understood it would be 75 to be with me.

新九年级英语暑假作业17 完形填空 (15空)
完成时间: 月 日 天气:
一、中考完形命题特点、解题策略、以阅读促各方面能力
完形填空的过程就是由已知信息推出未知信息的过程,重点检测考生的分析和连贯思维的能力。完形填空的考查侧重语篇,注重语境,讲究整体和体现运用,而且考查内容多关注情节发展的内在逻辑联系及词语运用能力。 这就要求学生熟练运用所掌握的词汇知识,习惯用语,语法知识,句法结构,而且要有一定的语篇领悟能力,逻辑思维能力和语言感悟能力, 近年来试题所设计的知识面不断拓宽,特别强调对语篇及上下文的理解和应用。
二、中考试题的特点
1、体裁一般为记叙文,选材源于英美原版文章,对文化差异性的把控和理解要求较高。
2、在语言层面上,所选素材的语言地道、真实。文章为记叙文,语言真实、地道,平实简练,没有复杂的语言和生僻的表达方式。
3、话题贴近学生生活,立意积极向上 ,融入对考生情感态度和价值观的正向引导,考生答题过程就是一次潜移默化的接受人文熏陶的过程。
4、题目设计继续坚持在语篇层面考查学生准确使用语言的能力。
三、解题步骤:
1、通览:跳过空格,速读全文,把握大意。勾划标题、首句(段)尾句(段)以及有中文注释的单词,打开答题窗口,窥探全文。概略了解文章的体裁、背景、内容、结构层次、情节、写作风格等等。了解时间、地点、人物、事件。
2、初选:瞻前顾后,先易后难,运用解题策略从从句子、段落、语篇层面解题,划出语篇标志,找准关键词、注意连词。紧扣文意,联系上下文和语境,展开逻辑推理,注意从上下文中寻找线索,注意词汇的意义、搭配,惯用法,语法。选择填空,但是必须有依据,同时将信息支撑点划出来。
3、复核:代入答案,再读全文,反复检查 争取做到:结构正确+语义通顺+逻辑合理+ 首尾呼应。
四、解题策略:
1、寻找人物、事件
记叙文通常是中考完形填空的主打体裁。通常所选的记叙文有完整的故事情节、清晰的写作思路和富有深刻的思想和教育内涵,首句通常会交代文章的人物、时间、地点、事件等内容。通常以人物或者时间为主线来叙述。
2、利用前、后暗示
暗示分前后两种,下文的填空答案可从上文中找到叫前暗示;上文的填空答案可从下文中找到叫后暗示;也就是说前面的空项从当时的情况来看,或是线索不清,或是语境不明,无法填出,但只要考生继续往下读,就会发现此空在后面的某个地方有暗示。
3、利用上下文进行逻辑推理
逻辑推理法也叫语境推测法,是我们在做完形填空题时使用的十分重要的方法之一。完型填空是一篇有完整内容的文章,各行各段之间有着逻辑上的必然联系,必须在掌握全文的主旨大意的前提下,通过对故事的线索、短文各段的逻辑关系、短文内容之间的逻辑关系及人物情感的发展等的分析和理解,选出答案。
有些过渡词语在文章中起着承上启下的作用,也是不可忽视的内容。如:
表示强调词语in a word, in my eyes, indeed, certainly,
表示对比的词on the other hand, although, of course, after all, 连词but, or, however,
表示作者态度的词语must, should, have to, I’d like to,you’d better,
表示否定意义的词nothing, hardly, never, few, little,
表示次序的 at first, at last, then, next等,
尽管这些词微不足道,但由于有衔接功能,并能表明句与句之间的语义关系,其作用是不可低估的。
句与句之间的逻辑关系主要有:
并列关系(and,while…),
转折关系(but, however,though, whereas, yet, otherwise, nevertheless..),
顺序关系(before, after,then, finally…),
让步关系(although,despite…),
因果关系(so, thus, for…),
解释关系(i.e.,that is to say…),
条件关系(if, in case…),
递进关系(moreover,besides, furthermore, what's more, in addition to, as well as…)

My mother looked at me angrily, something she ___49___ did it before. “You should be friendly to him.”
Being friendly didn’t use to be ___50___. But everything felt different as Henry and his dad ___51___ and lived with us.
When Henry walked ahead of us to the car, my mom took my hand and said, “We four are ___52___. This is our corner of the world now, Kirstie,” she continued, “Let’s ___53___ to make it a good one.” I just nodded.
The community theater was busy when we got there. Theater used to be what my mom and I did together—one play a year for our ___54___ thing. With Henry coming into our family, it didn’t seem so good anymore.
Soon, it was my ___55___. I forgot to be angry with Henry when I heard my name to go on stage. As we kids lined up on the stage, I ___56___ how badly I had tied the drawstring(束带)on my skirt. I should have asked my ___57___ for help.
And then, suddenly, my drawstring came untied and my skirt began to drop. In front of hundreds of people! It was not a(n) ___58___. It was terribly real. The air was full of laughter throughout the people in the theater, and I could feel my face turn red.
Then Henry, beside me, came to help me. He fixed my costurme, tying the drawstring with a nice knot(结).He made a joke about me “not” knowing knots, and the people ___59___ again. This time, the laughter felt OK.
At the end of the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm. I smiled at him ___60___. “Thanks,” I said. “For, you know.”
