专题 17 夹叙夹议类完形填空(原卷版)
完形填空是语言知识运用的第一节,共 20小题,每小题1.5分。在一篇约250词的短文中留出20
个空白,要求考生从每题所给的4个选项中选出最佳选项,使补全后的短文意思通顺,前后连贯,结构完
整。
分析全国卷近三年的考点分布可以看出,语法填空考点设置有如下特点:
1.题材以记叙文为主, 记叙文有时会夹叙夹议,偶尔考说明文或议论文;
2.篇章主题为人与自然,人与社会;
3.考点涉及句内层次、句间层次和语篇层次,以句内和句间层次为主,侧重考察上下文理解和词语
的辨析。
分析近年的考点分布可以看出:语法填空考察选型词以实词为主,其中名词、动词是考察重点,其次
是形容词和副词,词组短语也是常考, A 、 B 、 C 、 D 四个选项分布是均等的。
一、完形填空思维导图1. 考试方向
夹叙夹议文体就是一方面叙述某一事情,一方面又对此事加以分析与评论。这种表达方式中的叙与议
是一个有机的整体,“叙”是“议”的基础,即议论不能脱离记叙,必须在记叙的基础上展开;“议”是
“叙”的渗透,即议论在记叙的基础上发展,且有一定的深度与广度。二者水乳交融,互为一体。
这种文体的语言既有记叙文的特点:借助叙述、描写、抒情等手段记叙社会生活中的人、事、景、物
的情态及其发展过程,用以表现作者思想,抒发作者情感;时态以一般过去时为主,其他时态为辅;广泛
使用动态动词;适当运用直接引语。同时又具有议论文的语言个性:语言自然、客观、准确,逻辑性强,
且具有概括性。在遣词造句方面多使用虚拟语气、让步状语从句和can, may, might, could, would, should等
情态动词。
2. 试题解读
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。
完形填空所选的文章都是具有逻辑关系、意义相连的语篇,因此,在行文中不可避免地会出现词语的
复现、前后同义或反义、相互照应等现象。所以,解题时应联系上下文寻找相关线索,如某一个词的原词、
指代词、同义词、近义词、上义词、下义词和概括词等。完形填空的解题方法很多,而词汇复现法就是最
常见的方法之一。词汇复现包括原词复现、同义词复现、同根词复现、概括词复现以及结构复现等。
3. 得分要点【得分要点】
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。

Since our twins began learning to walk, my wife and I have kept telling them that our sliding glass door is
just a window. The 41 is obvious. If we 42 it is a door, they’ll want to go outside 43 . It
will drive us crazy. The kids apparently know the 44 . But our insisting it’s 45 a window has kept
them from 46 millions of requests to open the door.
I hate lying to the kids. One day they’ll 47 and discover that everything they’ve always known about
windows is a 48 .
I wonder if 49 should always tell the truth no matter the 50 . I have a very strong 51

metaphorical(比喻) meanings. I’m telling them they can’t open what they absolutely know is a door. What if later

the door and taking the opportunity, they just 56 it and wonder, "What if it isn’t a door?" That is, "
What if it isn’t a 57 opportunity?"
Maybe it’s an unreasonable fear. But the 58 is that I shouldn’t lie to my kids. I should just 59
repeatedly having to say, "No. We can’t go outside now." Then when they come to other doors in life, be they
real or metaphorical, they won’t 60 to open them and walk through.
