考点一 利用文章首段的观点或看法解题
知识点1 说明文完形填空的特点
文体特征
说明文往往围绕一个问题从不同的侧面来加以说明,通常结构严谨,句子结构复杂,因此也是高考完形填
空题中较难理解的一种文体。其主要特点为:
1. 开头点题
在说明文类的完形填空中,作者一般在文章的首句直接提出说明的对象,这是掌握说明细节的前提。
2.结构清晰
说明文一般按一定的顺序展开。理清文章的说明顺序,对于正确把握文意和上下文的逻辑关系,选择正确
答案具有重要意义。
3.难度较大
说明文往往采用比较正式的文体,表述准确严谨,生词术语较多,句子较长,结构较为复杂。
4.遣词用字简练
说明文一般采用简练的语言,按一定的方法介绍事物的类别、性质、特点、构造、成因、关系或事物的运
动变化、发展的过程及其规律。
5.条理清晰
说明文十分讲究条理性,一般采取时间顺序、空间顺序、逻辑顺序或认知顺序来说明事物或事理。
应试策略
1. 快速弄清文章大意
对于此类文章我们结合选择项,进行粗读或略读,对文章的大意要先有一个大体的了解。说明文往往生词
较多,而题材又比较广泛,所以阅读时,首先要能够掌握文章的大意。
2. 弄清楚说明的顺序
把握了说明顺序,就能准确把握文章的脉络,加强对整篇文章的理解。
3. 把握文章的组织结构,理清事实细节
把握语篇特征对理解文意与答题极为有利。说明性的文章一般都是一篇完整的、意思表达清楚的、逻辑比
较严密的短文。在阅读这类文章时,我们一定要仔细研读文章的开头和结尾,从主题句着手,找出支持
句,然后寻找文章的结论。这时,我们还要特别注意,不要被表面的一些细节所迷惑,我们在理解细节的
基础上,还要斟酌文字的内涵意义,从而对文章进行深层次的理解。
4. 注重上下文语境
应逐句精读短文,逐题分析选项,对特定的语境作深入的理解,克服"思维定势",根据全文大意和词不
离句、句不离文的原则逐项填空。
5. 熟练做题方法,遵循四个原则:
(1)上下一致。每个选择项必须从全文出发,从大处着手,避免孤立地分析每一空格,造成误选。
(2)语法正确。从语法地角度去考虑动词的时态、语态以及词类用法。
(3)逻辑合理。在完形填空题中,逻辑推理非常重要,有时每个选择项从语法上讲都正确,但是有的是
不合语境逻辑的。
(4)符合搭配。英语中固定搭配很多,需要熟练掌握,才能做好此类题目。
知识点2 议论文完形填空的特点
文体特征
议论文都是由论点(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。因此,典型的议论文一般就由序论(提出问题,即what)、本论(分
析问题,即why)和结论(解决问题,即how)三个部分构成,其具体的结构模式又有以下三种:
模式一:引言段(提出观点)——正方论点心(支持作者的观点的较弱论点)、正方论点2(支持作者
的观点的较强论点)、正方论点3(支持作者观点的最强论点)——结论段(总结+解决方法,论断或建
议) 在这种模式中,文章主体段(中间部分)的每一个部分论述一个论点,这些论点以其重要性按序
排列,最有力、最重要的论点在最后面,以示强调。
模式二:引言段(提出观点)——反面意见(反方观点+作者的反驳)、正方论点1(支持作者观点的
较弱论点)、正方论点2(支持作者观点的较强论点)、正方论点3(支持作者观点的最强论点)——结
论段(总结+解决方法,论断或建议)
在这种模式中,文章立体段的一开始就提出对立方的反面意见及作者对这种意见的反驳,以后各部分
仍分别陈述作者的不同论点。
模式三:引言段(提出观点)——反方观点1+进行反驳的正方论点、反方观点2+进行反驳的正方论
点、反方观点3+进行反驳的正方论点——结论段(总结+解决方法,论断或建议)
在这种模式中,作者在文章主体段的每一部分都先提出一个反面观点,然后再进行反驳。
议论文有自己的语言个性,它不同于记叙文的生动形象,也不同于说明文的简明易懂。议论是对具体
事物、事理作出的理论上分析与阐述,因此,它的语言自然客观的、抽象的、概括的。同时,它的语言也
很准确,合乎逻辑。文中会较多地使用,诸如since(既然),now that(既然),therefore(因而),in
that case(在那种情况下),so(所以),It follows that…(因而
),
…
If…,we may conclude that …(如
果
,我们可以这样下结论
),
……
……
Should it be the case (如果是这样的话
),
……
Idon’t want to…,but…
(我并不想
),
……
It is true that…,but…(诚然
但是
)
……
……
,Even if …(即使
)等有辩论和推理含义
……
的连接和过渡词语与结构,以增强语言的准确性和逻辑性。此外,作者的写作态度一般也较诚恳,在文章
中通常使用的是与读者平等交流的语气,不会给人以居高临下、以势居人、逼人接受的感觉,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。
应试策略
技巧一 把握首句
议论文完形填空的首句一般是主旨句,作者通常在首段提出总论点,然后在每段的首句提出分论
点。
技巧二 依据结构查论点
文章论点提出一般有以下三种。
开门见山:直接提出论点,然后用正反、对比、举例等论据加以论证,最后总结全文。
抛砖引玉:先通过叙述生活中的一件事情或现象,不表明自己的观点,而是通过对具体现象的分析,最后
得出结论。
文末总结:先列举生活中的现象,不表明自己的观点,而是通过对具体现象的分析,最后得出结论。
技巧三 末段结论
议论文的尾段就是结论,也是对论点的照应。
知识点3 利用文章首段的观点或看法解题
说明文和议论文有一个共同特点,文章的首段总是提出要说明的事实或结论或提出论点或提出要解决
的问题。根据文章作者提出的结论或论点,可以比较清晰的感悟作者的写作态度和目的,而下文将对其进
行详细的说明或进行论证。明察作者的写作思路和态度就能一连串的解决首段一系列的问题,它们是相辅
相成的。

知识点 注重文章尾段的结论解题
明文和议论文的尾段往往给我们传递非常重要的信息,常常是议论文得出的结论,而这个结论往往也
是积极向上的,说明文会在尾段进一步总结,它们能反映作者的态度和情感。因此,利用好尾段信息对完
形填空解题很有帮助。

考点三 利用段落主题句解题
知识点 利用段落主题句解题
说明文和议论文的语言组织结构很严谨,句子之间的逻辑关系紧凑,层次分明。因此,段落中的主题
句总是统领整个段落,段中的所有的说明和论述都会围绕题展开。所以,整段内的选项要侧重主题句的思
想选择,这样成功率很高。

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 21 , in number. Human beings
are born with this ability. 22 , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds
have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 23 However, if you
remove two, the bird 24 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 25 between two and three.
Another interesting experiment showed a bird's 26 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of
a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 27
until the man left the tower. The man had an 28 . He took another man with him to the tower. One man left
and the other stayed, but they did not 29 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The
experiment was 30 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until
all the men were 31 . It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 32
able to fool the crow.
How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old
almost always notice if something is taken away from a 33 group. But when the number goes beyond three
or four, the children are 34 fooled.
It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our
human 35 is not much better than a crow's.

Most people give little thought to the pens they write with, especially since the printers in modern homes and
offices mean that very 36 things are handwritten. All too often, people buy a pen based only on 37 ,
and wonder why they are not satisfied 38 they begin to use it. However, buying a pen that you’ll enjoy is not

Then, the writing point of the pen should 46 the ink to flow evenly(均匀的) while that pen remains in

should also be sensitive enough to 49 ink from running when the pen is lifted. A point that does not

The requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community. As a result, all students
must 1 sixty hours of service learning, 2 they will not receive a diploma. Service learning is
academic learning that also helps the community. 3 of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river,
working in a soup kitchen, or tutoring a student. 4 a service experience, students must keep a journal and
then write a 5 about what they have learned.
Supporters claim that there are many 6 of service learning. Perhaps most importantly, students are
forced to think 7 their own interests and become 8 of the needs of others. Students are also able to
learn reallife skills that 9 responsibility, problemsolving, and working as part of a team. 10
students can explore possible careers 11 service learning. For example, if a student wonders what
teaching is like, he or she can choose to work in an elementary school classroom a few afternoons each month.
12 there are many benefits, opponents 13 problems with the new requirement. First, they
14 that the main reason students go to school is to learn core subjects and skills. Because service learning is
timeconsuming, students spend 15 time studying the core subjects. Second, they believe that forcing
students to work without 16 goes against the law. By requiring service, the school takes away an
individual’s freedom to choose.
In my view, service learning is a great way to 17 to the community, learn new skills, and explore
different careers. 18 , I don’t believe you should force people to help others — the 19 to help
must come from the heart. I think the best 20 is one that gives students choices: a student should be able
to choose sixty hours of independent study or sixty hours of service. Choice encourages both freedom and
responsibility and as young adults, we must learn to handle both wisely.
