高考全攻略之备战2018年高考英语考点一遍过-专题50+完形填空夹叙夹议文

考点50 完形填空夹叙夹议文 高考频度：★★★★★‎ ‎ 【考纲解读】‎ ‎（1）考纲要求 ‎ 夹叙夹议的文章是高考完形填空中最有难度的，也是最热点的一类体裁。所选文章语言地道、寓意深刻、可读性强。文章常常在平淡的叙述中蕴含着深刻的人生哲理。此类选材倾向于注重短文本身的教育意义。作者首先叙述一件事，在叙述过程中或结束后发表自己的看法或由此事引出一个深刻的社会问题。文章的显著特点是首句可能在传达一个事件信息或透视一种社会现象，而后对此进行高层次评价，或由此引发一种深层次思考，具有记叙与议论的双重性，文情并茂，发人深思。解题时，应借助上下文乃至全文的语境揣摩作者的心境，及其对各个角色、各个事件的态度。‎ ‎（2）命题规律 一、先叙述作者自己的某一个生活经历或见闻，然后针对这一事件发表自己对生活的看法，或揭示生活的真理。‎ 二、作者先提出一种观点或看法，然后围绕这一观点或看法用具体的事例加以说明，有时也可能是用几个事例从不同的侧面来说明。‎ 三、提出一种观点或见解，然后用某一事例来阐述这一观点，最后再进一步地总结和升华。‎ 此类完形填空三种结构特点如下表：‎ ‎1‎ 事例—观点 先叙述作者自己亲历或所见所闻的一件事情，然后针对这件事情发表自己对生活的看法，或揭示生活的真理。‎ ‎2‎ 观点—事例 先提出一种观点或看法，然后围绕这一观点或看法用具体的事例来说明，一般是一个事例，有时也会用几个事例从不同的侧面加以说明。‎ ‎3‎ 观点—事例—观点 提出一种观点或看法，然后用事例说明，最后再进一步阐述或总结自己的观点。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 【解题策略】 ‎ 一、关注首句，领会大意 通过首句可以明确文章话题，了解篇章结构，预测全文内容。尾句往往是作者的点睛之笔，通过尾句一般可以更加真实、确切地体会到作者的写作意图、对待事件的真实态度等核心内容。‎ 例：‎ From my second grade on，there was one event I feared every year：the piano recital(独奏会)和尾句的With his first recital，my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the words he used those 30plus years ago.表明了文章的主旨：作者本来很反感弹钢琴，但是父亲的行为感动了自己。作者认为他的实际行动比30多年以前说的话更有感染力。‎ 二、注重语境，理清行文逻辑 夹叙夹议文以叙述为主，绝大部分篇幅是在描述事件，而作者的观点及态度往往隐含在叙述中，这就要求考生增强语篇意识，抓住文章的叙事线索，弄清文章的内在逻辑关系，根据上下文内容做出选择，并适当进行逻辑推理是解题的关键。‎ 三、找准标志词，弄清故事发展模式 夹叙夹议文通常使用对比、强调、让步、举例、结论、顺序和对照等手段。考生应注意观察文章的结构特点，根据表达这些手段的衔接词来正确理解故事情节。‎ 常见标志词有：(1)并列关系：and，not only...but also，that is to say等；(2)因果关系：because，for，so that，in order that，due to，thanks to，thus，therefore，so等；(3)对比关系：while，whereas，as，rather than，instead of等；(4)转折关系：although，though，even if，nevertheless，despite，but，yet，however，on the contrary等；(5)递进关系：also，then，besides，in addition，furthermore，what’s more等；(6)顺序关系：first，then，on the one hand等；(7)转变话题：by the way，what I really mean...等。‎ One of the easiest things in the world is to become a faultfinder. However，life can be 36 when you are not busy finding fault with it.‎ Several years ago I 37 a letter from seventeenyearold Kerry，who described herself as a worldclass faultfinder，almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her，and 39 was ever good enough. he was highly selfcritical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 40 person.‎ ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。Kerry本来是一个事事挑剔、苛刻的女孩，但通过她最好的朋友 遭遇了车祸这件事，她变得对一切不再那么刻薄了。这篇文章旨在告诉我们：不要用一种挑剔的眼光去看世界，要心胸开阔一些。当我们养成这种习惯的时候，就能重拾生活中的热情，而且心中会充满爱。‎ ‎36.A.lonely B. great C. quiet D. uneasy 句意：世界上最简单的事情之一就是成为一个吹毛求疵的人。然而，当你不是忙着找茬时，生活可能是________。由however表示的转折关系可知，本空应选great，表示＂生活可能是美好的＂。lonely孤独的，寂寞的；great伟大的，极好的；quiet安静的，寂静的；uneasy不安的，不确定的。‎ ‎【答案】B ‎37.A.received B. answered C. expected D. rejected 由固定搭配可知，＂收到来信＂动词用receive，故答案为A项。前文没有提到Kerry给作者写信，所以不能选answered(回复)。‎ ‎【答案】A ‎38.A.threatened B. interrupted C. bothered D. spoiled 由后句的People were always doing things that annoyed her可知，她经常因为人们做的事而感到＂烦恼＂。threaten威胁，恐吓；interrupt打断，插嘴；bother打扰，烦恼；spoil娇惯，宠坏。故本空应选bothered。‎ ‎【答案】C ‎39.A.anything B. everything C. something D. nothing 由前句People were always doing things that annoyed her可知，Kerry对一切都觉得不满意，没有什么是足够好的。故选nothing。‎ ‎【答案】D ‎40.A.caring B.boring C.interesting D.surprising 由前文可知，Kerry对一切都非常挑剔，她不但对自己苛刻，而且也找朋友的茬。由此可知Kerry是一个令人烦的人，故选boring。caring关心他人的；interesting有趣的；surprising令人惊奇的。‎ ‎【答案】B Unfortunately，it took a horrible accident to change her 41 .Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash.What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the 43 ，Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 of boyfriends，the way she was living，the way she related to her mother，and various other things she felt she needed to 45 .It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly，she learned to appreciate life rather than to ‎ ‎47 everything so harshly (刻薄).She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.‎ ‎41.A.attitude B .plan C. measure D. explanation 根据后文中的It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault.Very quickly，she learned to appreciate life rather than to 47 everything so harshly(刻薄).可知，在她最好的朋友经历了一次可怕的事故后，Kerry对事情的＂态度(attitude)＂发生了改变，故本空应选attitude。plan计划；measure措施；explanation解释。‎ ‎【答案】A ‎42.A.urgent B. unnecessary C. certain D. impossible 既然这件事能让这么一个挑剔的姑娘改变对生活的态度，那么这件事一定不同寻常，也就是说她感到＂不可能＂发生，所以应选impossible。urgent急迫的，催促的；unnecessary不必要的，多余的；certain必然的，确定的。‎ ‎【答案】D ‎43.A.occasion B. event C. accident D .adventure 根据前面提到的a horrible accident可知此处应选accident。‎ ‎【答案】C ‎44.A.memory B. notice C. evidence D. choice 根据语境并结合四个选项的含义可知，此处指对男朋友的＂选择(choice)＂。memory记忆；notice通知；evidence证据。‎ ‎【答案】D ‎46.A.aware of B. afraid of C. curious about D. confused about 根据后文中的Very quickly，she learned to appreciate life可知Kerry对待生活的态度变了，之所以会有这种变化是因为她＂意识到(became aware of)＂了自己挑剔的习惯，所以选择A项。(be)afraid of害怕，担心；(be)curious about对……感到好奇；(be)confused about对……感到困惑。‎ ‎【答案】A ‎47.A.discuss B. realize C. judge D. settle 由rather than(而不是)可知，后面表达的意思应该与appreciate life(欣赏生活)表达的意思相反。discuss讨论，商讨；realize意识到，实现；judge评判，断定；settle解决，安排。结合四个选项的含义可知，应是如此刻薄地＂评判(judge)＂每一件事，故选C项。‎ ‎【答案】C ‎48.A.family B. life C. career D. education 由前文可知，Kerry对待生活其他方面的态度也发生了转变，故本空应选life(生活)。family家庭；career职业；education教育。‎ ‎【答案】B Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at faultfinding， 49 when we're honest，we can be sharply 50 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 51 problems，or that you pretend things are 52 than they are，but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are — 53 most of the time，and especially when it's not a really big 54 .‎ Train yourself to ＂bite your tongue＂，and with a little 55 ，you'll get really good at letting things go. And when you do，you'll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.‎ ‎49.A.so B.or C.but D.for 根据下一段开头的Train yourself to＂bite your tongue＂可知，此处是说＂或许我们大多数人并不是如此爱挑剔，但是(but)，老实说，我们都有可能会对这个世界有尖锐的批评＂。由本空前后句意可知，前后两部分为转折关系，故应用but。‎ ‎【答案】C ‎50.A.proud B.sure C.hopeful D.critical 根据上题的分析可知，此处应选critical。be critical of ＂对……爱挑毛病，对……持批评态度＂。‎ ‎【答案】D ‎51.A.face B.create C.solve D.ignore 根据后面的but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are可知，此处指作者并不是建议大家＂忽视(ignore)＂问题，故选D项。‎ ‎【答案】D ‎55.A.practice B.speech C.rest D.pity 此处是指训练自己忍住不说，稍加练习(practice)，就会让事情顺其自然。由句中的train可知，本空应选A。‎ ‎【答案】A ‎【结论】不要做挑剔主义者→Kerry对待事物态度的转变→存在的即是合理的→打开心胸，阳光就能进来。‎ ‎【解题技巧】‎ ‎1. 认真理解开篇首句，把握文章主题。首句一般在文章中起着启示的作用，可作为我们探索短文的＂窗口＂，由此判断文章的体裁，推测全文大意乃至主题。‎ ‎2. 善于抓住文章中心句、中心段，充分领会文章思想、把握文章脉络。‎ ‎3. 抓住线索，注意情节的变化，以求综观上下文，达到整体理解文意，从而避免片面性和断章取义。‎ ‎4. 不仅要理解文章的字面意思，更重要的是挖掘文章的内涵，尤其要体味议论部分，因为该部分往往是文章的升华。‎ 题组一（高考真题）‎ Cloze 1（2016·新课标全国卷II）‎ A Heroic Driver ‎ Hundreds of people have formed impressions of you through that little device (装置) on your desk.

Rani was, well...＂可知,作者亲自见到Rani之后，发现她本人与电话中的声音传达给自己的信息是很不同的，故作者应是(因吃惊)说不出来话。故选D项。amused＂高兴的＂；worried ＂担心的＂；helpless＂无助的＂；speechless＂(尤指气得或惊讶得)说不出话的＂。‎ ‎58.B 【解析】根据上文的内容尤其是＂What a wonderful lady＂可知，B项正确。calm＂镇定的＂；nice＂友好的＂；proud＂骄傲的＂；clever＂聪明的＂。‎ ‎ 60.B 【解析】根据语境可知，此处的＂her ‘I’m here for you’＂应是属于工作态度，故选B项。explanation＂解释＂；attitude＂态度＂；concept＂观念＂；behavior＂行为＂ 。‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ ‎ 本篇完形填空很好地体现出重在考查语篇理解能力，且不在情节上、词汇考查大做文章的趋势。其中对于语篇的上下文复现考查非常之多，有一半左右的答案可以在上下文中找到。‎ ‎ 语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，利用上下文寻找解题信息，确定正确答案。如：‎ I put my head in, expecting the worst. But to my surprise, the room wasn’t empty at all. It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the wall.‎ ‎ And then on the well-made bed sat Amy, my new ___44___, dressed neatly.   ‎ A. roommate    B. classmate    C. neighbor    D. companion  ‎ ‎【分析】名词同现，空格前出现了room, furniture, curtains, a TV等同现信息可知坐在铺好的床上的是＂我＂的室友。‎ Cloze 2‎ ‎【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议类文章。作者随丈夫去加利福尼亚的沙漠地带，百无聊赖之际，她感觉到了一种令人窒息的绝望。因此，她写信告诉父母，而父亲只回了两行字，这两行字使作者茅塞顿开。原来，世界的美在于自己看待世界的态度，而不是世界本身。‎ ‎21.C 【解析】从上文提到的I went to live there以及下文的I hated the place可知，作者随丈夫搬去了加利福尼亚，故选near，表示＂靠近他＂，其他都与语意不符。 ‎ ‎22.A 【解析】从上下文可知，作者非常讨厌这个地方，所以她以前从来没有这么不开心过，用before＂以前＂，其他都不符合语意。‎ ‎23.D 【解析】从语境和下文的almost 125°F可知，这个地方实在是太热了，以至于让人难以忍受，故用unbearable＂难以忍受的＂。inflexible意为＂僵化的、不可弯曲的＂；incomprehensible意为＂不可思议的、难以理解的＂；uncontrollable意为＂难以控制的＂，都不符合语境。‎ ‎ 27.C 【解析】根据上下文可知，作者宁愿坐牢也不愿生活在这里。would rather表示＂宁愿……＂，符合语境。‎ ‎ 28.D 【解析】从上下文可知，作者给父母写了信，故此处指父亲回了信，故用answer the letter。‎ ‎ 29.D 【解析】从下文可知，对于这两行回信，作者这一辈子都会牢牢记住，同时下文也多次提到这封信对作者以后人生的影响，故根据语意选memory表示＂记忆＂。comparison表示＂比较＂；imagination表示＂想象＂；consideration表示＂考虑＂，都不符合语境。‎ ‎30.A 【解析】从全文可知，作者对父亲回信中的这两句话一读再读。所以选over and over表示＂一再、多次＂，来突出作者对其印象深刻。‎ ‎31.C 【解析】结合上下文可知，此时指作者决定要找出她当前处境中的＂优点＂所在——就像父亲信中所说的＂星星＂一样，所以用situation表示＂处境＂。‎ ‎32.B 【解析】从上文可知，作者与当地人交了朋友，而他们的＂反应＂也令她很吃惊，故用reaction，表示＂反应、回应＂。movement意为＂活动＂；guidance意为＂指导＂；purpose意为＂目的＂，都不符合语境。‎ ‎33.A 【解析】根据语境可知，当地人把一些他们最喜欢的、拒绝出售给游客的艺术品都当作礼物送给了作者，所以选refused。‎ ‎34.B 【解析】 hunt for是固定词组，表示＂寻找、追寻＂，符合语境。‎ ‎35.A 【解析】结合34空可知，数百万年前，沙漠还是洋底，故选floor。‎ ‎39.D 【解析】根据语意可知，作者把这次不愉快的经历变成了人生中令人吃惊的冒险历程，所以选adventure表示＂冒险历程＂。‎ ‎ 40.C 【解析】根据全文可知，最终作者从自我的牢笼里挣脱了出来，发现了那些美丽的＂星星＂。‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 这篇文章是夹叙夹议文，难度适中，这类文章首先要通读抓住故事发生的情节和作者想传达的中心思想。围绕主旨解答更有把握。故事内容体现了作者从父亲的简单的两行字中领悟到做人的道理。学生要抓住这个主题，而且这个主题贯穿整个文章。这个文章一个明显的特点是上下文之间的联系非常紧密。做题时要牢记上下文的关联对解题会很有帮助。‎ 做题时要结合完形填空的特点，完形填空题有的考查词语同现、词语复现，有的则是要运用逻辑推理能力，领会和掌握解题策略对提高完形填空的解题速度和准确率大有裨益。‎ ‎1. 上下文串联和语境暗示。‎ 这篇完型填空里面出现词语同现的很少，但是词语复现不少，就是指某一个词以原词、同根词、同义词、反义词等方式重复出现在语篇中，语篇中的句子通过这种复现关系达到相互衔接。像这篇完型的23题用unbearable，因为下文明显出现了almost 125F，还有28题，上文的I wrote to my parents暗示这里是letter。40题是和上文的look for信息词对应的，都是属于这种类型。‎ ‎2. 逻辑推理。‎ 逻辑推理是通过对句子间和上下文之间逻辑关系的理解从而推断出正确答案。其中逻辑关系主要包括因果 关系、转折关系、对比关系、并列关系等。逻辑推理题需要考生对上下文的理解全面把握，难度较大，考生不能将句子独立开，要注意一个句群，一个段落的整体理解。这篇文章逻辑推理的题较多。如24题，根据上文a desert和alone，可知这里用not合适；37题主要是上下文的逻辑关系，上文hadn’t changed和下文changed是转折关系。‎ ‎3.固定搭配。‎ 有的题目单单从四个选项不能看出差别，需要和横线的前后搭配，形成固定短语才能判断，如34题使用hunt for这个词组。‎ Cloze3‎ ‎【文章大意】与一位励志大师的邂逅，使作者认识到人生应该有成长计划，由此他拥有了幸福的人生。‎ ‎36.D 【解析】根据上文中的＂breakfast＂可知，应选择eating， 表示他们在一起吃饭。‎ ‎37.C 【解析】根据下文中的＂You don’t have a personal plan for growth＂可知本题选择plan，表示个人成长计划。‎ ‎38.D【解析】作者听到问题后竭力寻找能够回答问题的答案，qualify＂符合，配得上＂，符合句意。‎ ‎39.A 【解析】 (be)involved (in)＂参加＂，符合句意。‎ ‎40.B 【解析】根据下文的＂I must have talked for ten minutes＂可知作者滔滔不绝地说了起来，就像是在演讲，因此选择speech。‎ ‎44.A 【解析】根据文章内容可知，成长不是一个自发的过程，而是需要计划的，因此本题选择automatic。‎ ‎45.D 【解析】根据本段的内容可知，作者此时领悟到了Kurt所说的话。hit表示＂使突然想起＂。‎ ‎46.B 【解析】本句的意思是作者以前一直没有有目的地去让自己更好地成长。on purpose＂有意地＂，符合句意。‎ ‎47.C 【解析】根据句中的＂I will develop and follow a personal growth plan...＂可知作者此刻作了决定，因此选择decision。‎ ‎48.A 【解析】根据下文可知，作者制订了人生成长计划，因此选择life。‎ ‎49.B 【解析】根据上文可知选择conversation，作者把他与Kurt之间的谈话告诉了妻子。‎ ‎50.C 【解析】 作者向妻子展示了Kurt出售的书和磁带，因此选择showed。‎ ‎51.C 【解析】作者与妻子认为Kurt不仅仅是在销售东西。recognize＂承认，意识到＂，符合句意。‎ ‎52.C 【解析】Kurt给我们指明了一条改变我们生活、实现我们梦想的道路。way＂方法，途径＂，后面常用不定式作后置定语。‎ ‎53.B 【解析】根据上文的＂was selling＂可知本题选择buy。 ‎ ‎54.A 【解析】此处表示与妻子一起成长，故选择grow。‎ ‎55.D 【解析】根据最后一句可知他们的决定是明智的，因此选择wise。‎ 题组二 ‎ ‎ Cloze 1‎
