高考英语议论型完形填空特点及备考策略

1.议论型完形填空的特点

(1)议论形式的完形填空一般是直接提出论点,通过论据论证,最后,作者提出自己的看法或提出另一个话题供大家讨论。

(2)议论形式的完形填空一般都是由论点(作者的观点,也就是被证明的对象)、论据(用来证明论点的依据,是说明论点的理由和材料)和论证(运用论据证明论点的过程与方法)这三个要素构成的,这也是一个提出问题→分析问题→解决问题的过程。

(3)英语议论文不仅需要说明自己的观点,而且还要让读者接受自己的观点,因此,在词语表达上除了客观之外,还比较注重委婉。常用虚拟语气、让步状语从句和情态动词can,could,may,might,would,should等。为了辩证推理的条理性和逻辑性,往往较多地使用since,now that,therefore,in that case,because,so,but,however等过渡词和连接词。

2.议论型完形填空的备考策略

(1)遵循“首句”原则

对于议论文形式的完形填空,在掌握全文主旨的情况下,抓好每段的首句是做好试题的基本原则之一。有一项调查结果表明,英语议论文有60%~90%的主旨句在文章的首句。抓住了每段的主旨句也就“牵住了牛鼻子”,再理解文意也就不难了。

(2)理清论点、论据、结论

议论型完形填空与记叙型完形填空相比,议论型完形填空稍微难做。一般的记叙文是按时间顺序进行描述的,我们只要把握事件发生、发展的过程,就能将情景掌握好。然而议论文形式的完形填空就不这么简单了,如果我们对哪是论点、哪是论据、哪是结论都不清楚,只是莽撞地选择答案,其结果可想而知。所以理清论点、论据和结论是做好议论型完形填空的关键。

(3)“三论”结合验证答案

一般来说,能说明论据主要内容的答案可以在论点里得到印证,而论点里的某些答案也可以与论据有机地结合起来,使论点、论据形成相辅相成的关系,因而整个文章上下一致。如果我们所选的答案前后矛盾,论据与论点相悖,最后的结论与论点相矛盾,那就说明我们对于文章的把握欠条理和系统,我们就要重新回过头来理顺文章的各个部分,直到清楚为止,然后再依据自己对全文的掌握及各部分的逻辑关系选出答案。

【完形赏析】

It’s funny how you’d ask a kid today what he/she’d like to be when they grow up. 1 they’d say, “I want to be like my daddy or like my mummy.” You ask the same question to 2 and you’d hear them saying they 3 to be like R, Kelly, Dora or Obama. These people are 4 in their own rights(凭他们自身的努力), but that’s not enough reason to spend your time living out a life just trying to be an image of 5 person. This same question is not just 6 to kids and teens; ask adults and they’d also tell you they want to be like Bill Gates or Ellen Sirleaf Johnson.

We live in a 7 in which people are from different backgrounds. Some are born with 8

spoons and others with no spoon at all. We live in a world of 9 and solutions, obstacles and

stepping-stones, depending on where you’re looking.

Most of us spend our time and energy 10 shoes to fit into, leaving ours behind, trying to live life and 11 the way our role models do. It’s good but that’s not the 12 factor that we’d be like them, 13 we’d be surprised that we’ll fall short of our expectations if we spend much energy 14 the wind. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration, so it’s 15 that we all have the 1% in our genetic make-up but we need to work hard.

Now, I’m not trying to say it’s 16 to want to be like somebody else; all I’m trying to say is that you were born here for a reason---You were given an empty 17 to write your life in. I wouldn’t want your book to be 18 with how so-so and so is but rather how “I am”, for as you go around trying out people’s 19 , who’s going to try yours? Even if you don’t become successful in life, 20 yourself with the thought that at least your shoes are worth trying out.

It has been argued by some that gifted children should be grouped in special classes. The 1 is based on the belief that in regular classes these children are held back in their intellectual growth by 2 situation that has beendesigned for the 3 children.

There can be little doubt that 4 classes can help the gifted children to graduate earlier and take their place in life sooner. However, to take these 5 out of the regular classes may create serious problems.

I observed a number of 6 children who were taken out of a special class and placed in a __7__ class. In the special class, they showed little ability to use their own judgment, relying 8 on their teachers’ directions. In the regular class, having no worry about keeping up, they began to reflect 9 on many problems, some of which were not on the school program.

Many are concerned that gifted children become 10 and lose interest in learning. However, this 11 is more often from parents and teachers than from students, and some of these 12 simply conclude that special classes should be set up for those who are 13 . Some top students do feel bored in class, but why they 14 so goes far beyond the work they have in school. Studies have shown that to be bored is to be anxious.

本文是一篇议论文。文章就有天赋的学生是不是应该进特殊班的问题进行了讨论,调查表明被分在特殊班的学生并没有人们想象的好效果,特殊班里的学生过分依赖老师的引导,反而对学习失去了兴趣。

1.C 考查名词辨析。根据文意可知分班的争论依据是:普通班会阻碍有天赋学生的发展。

2.C 考查现在分词的用法。这里指为普通学生设计的普通班的学习环境。

3.D考查形容词词义辨析。后文指为普通学生设计的普通班。与前面的gifted相对的是average(普通的,一般的)。故选D。

13.A 考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。根据上文应为有天赋的学生。此处talented与gifted同意。

14.D考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。他们为什么会有这样的感觉是因为不适应学校的课程。
