2. 命题规律及备考策略
【命题规律】
近年来，新高考完形填空对夹叙夹议文没有考查，但不意味着2026 年不考，夹叙夹议文仍然是
高考完形填空中的非常重要的命题体裁，夹叙夹议文特别容易有感而发，触景生情。夹叙夹议文完形
填空仍然重点考查：动词及动词短语、名词、形容词、副词等实词在完形填空语篇中的上下文中的得
体使用。
【备考策略】
针对高考夹叙夹议性的完形填空题，备考策略如下：
1．分析结构，抓住作者观点。
在做题时要借助文章结构，认真体会记叙和议论的关系，抓住作者的观点，明确文章的组织方式。看
文章属于上述哪种结构，从而明白作者的思路。
2．重视首句，把握文章主题。
首句往往是文章的关键句、引题句或主题句。通过首句可以初步判断文章的写作目的，为全面理解文
章打开一扇“窗户”。
3．叙议兼顾，理解议论内涵。
夹叙夹议中叙与议是一个有机的整体，叙是议的基础，而议是叙的升华。在读这类文章时，掌握议论
部分的内容是关键，因为叙述是为作者的议论而服务的。所以只有把故事和哲理联系起来，再结合人物心
理和行为的描述，全面把握文章才能正确解题。
4．抓住转换，理清逻辑关系。
抓住记叙与议论的转换，及时调整思维方式，理清上下文之间的逻辑关系，在充分把握语境的基础上，
辨析词语，进一步把握作者的观点、态度，找到正确答案。
3.【命题预测】
2026 有可能考查夹叙夹议文，夹叙夹议文中的人生感悟类可能性很大。
必备基础知识：
夹叙夹议文完形填空的文章一般具有哲理性，往往从一件看似平淡的小事中领悟出深刻的人生哲理，
因此耐人寻味，可读性较强。文章记叙部分的内容积极、情节曲折动人；议论部分则是记叙的升华，兼具
教育性和启发性。夹叙夹议文“叙议兼顾”，既有记叙文的特点，同时又具有议论文的特点。在结构上，
该文体采用“先叙后议”“先议后叙”或“叙议交替”的写作模式，叙述中流露人间真情，体现理性思维，
人文情怀、参与社会的人文素养。旨在记叙的基础上，通过议论的手段，说明作者的态度、观点、思想和
目的。
考点一 利用主题语境下的价值观解题
主题语境下的价值观是指反映三大主题语境的话题语篇所体现的“真善美”的品德与道德观念和价值
取向，具体包括真诚、善良、无私、美好、和谐、乐观等积极向上的优秀道德品质。具备正确的价值观符
合高考在语篇选材上体现“立德树人”的根本要求。文章常在尾段升华主旨，点明中心，因此，在解答完
形填空结尾部分的题目时，考生可以上升到价值观高度来确定正确答案。

考点二 利用前瞻后望找线索解题
完形填空（Cloze Test）是语言测试中常见的题型，要求考生通过上下文线索补全缺失的词汇。“前瞻
”
后望法是一种高效的解题策略，强调通过分析空缺处前后的信息（即上下文）来推断答案。
前瞻（Look Forward）
阅读空缺处之后的句子或段落，寻找与答案直接相关的提示词（如同义词、反义词、解释性语句、逻辑连
接词等）。
后望（Look Backward）
回顾空缺处之前的内容，分析已给出的信息（如主语、动词、固定搭配、语法结构等），确保答案与上文
一致。
完形填空题主要考查学生对语境的理解能力，所以空处的前后多有暗示(下文暗示上文的居多)。学生
在做题时，一定要从整体上把握文章的内容，弄清文章的结构和文章的内在逻辑关系。

考点三 考查利用情感态度解题
每篇夹叙夹议文章都会涉及到文章作者的思想情感，都会触景生情，因故事而感慨情感的流露。抓住
夹叙夹议文章中作者发表议论的部分，搜寻其情感走势是解题的关键。通常都是积极向上的励志文章，所
以作者总是流露出对美好生活的追求和人生哲理的感慨。
夹叙夹议完形填空所表达的内容都有一定的褒贬性，这种褒贬性反映了作者的特定心理、情绪状态和
写作意图，因此利用文章内容的褒贬性就能对文章进行准确的逻辑判断，从而在理解文意并准确传递文意
的基础上推断出答案。

I used to believe that perfection meant being beautiful, successful, and emotionally composed (平静的) at all
times. This idea made me feel 1 . After all, try as I might, I could never meet it. I often wore a mask and

When I was 12 years old, I already knew my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a
total outsider (局外人), bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt
1
alone in my small town.
When I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to
2
kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I
3
, the more
kindness and
4
I received. I realized my purpose in life would be to
5
to people, especially
teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my
6
friends back then. I was so
7
that the authors wrote those books. After
8
terrible experiences at school, I made a choice to take the

journey. My dream

have been a full-time
11
of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this
12
opportunity to
reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness
13
me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s

of positive change.

efforts, the book never found a home, and eventually, my agent and I
6
. I had to search for a new agent,
and through connections, I managed to get the book in front of more publishers; however, no

In 2020, a separate project, A Year Without Men: A 12-Point Guide to Inspire and Empower Women,
8
publication through my new agent. I recommended my parenting book to him;
9
, he declined to represent
it, leaving me agentless again.
But I kept holding onto the idea that this book was to be published. While
10
my other projects —
podcasting, and writing articles and a new book — I was still
11
to publish the book. I kept trying new
agents, hearing the same “the-market-is too tough”

Then unexpectedly, Tantor Audio, a leading audio book (有声书) publisher,
13
my book. It finally

As she

2

3
is this glass of water?”
Answers called out
4
from eight to twenty ounces (盎司).
She quieted the students down and then replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t

how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s OK. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my

hold it for a day, my arm will feel
7
and paralysed. In each case, the weight of the glass of water doesn’t
change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. Do you know why?”
All the students kept silent and listened carefully, lost in thought.
She continued, “Our

and

I can still remember it like it was yesterday. My children were still young and we got into our

old car with a cassette (磁带) player to go grocery shopping. We had a case full of cassettes in the
2
that
we would listen to when the radio didn’t come in clear. This day we arrived at the store, got groceries and came
back to the car only to find that the case full of cassettes was

the thief opening the
case. There were a few decade-old cassettes from my college days, and the rest of them were

tapes
where we had recorded songs the kids and I liked from the radio.

mind, I laughed again. When I
9
my thoughts with the kids, they immediately laughed too. For weeks to
come whenever we listened to the car radio or played the one cassette that was still in the player we would laugh
again thinking about our stolen “

I believe it was our way to
11
our anger at the thief and wish him well. By forgiving, we freed our
hearts from

I knew nothing about flower arranging. My
1
was just to put all the stems into the vase until I
couldn’t fit any more in. As a result, the flowers appear
2
and unbeautiful.
But then I saw vlogs by a Chinese florist (花商), who produces the
3
beautiful arrangements. First,
he creates a structure for the
4
using cut-off lengths of stem. Then, he carefully inserts just the right
stems, one at a time,
5
leaves or greenery and cuts them to the
6
he wants, and finally — and
this is where I am
7
— he cuts off extra
8
on each stem to create a perfectly balanced whole,
where each blossom has
9
to really shine.
I see where he’s going, and I love the result, but it
10
to cut off beautiful flowers. But when I
watch him, I think about how he’s so
11
. He edits. He doesn’t just get everything in but cuts off the extra
so that what
12
really stands out.
So, if you are a person who loves
13
, you may find that you want too many good things — this is
just my style of flower arrangement. You could

Today, I

the doctor’s office happy over good news about my health. My good mood was

by the signs of spring all around — blooming flowers and singing birds. I suddenly felt an urge to celebrate,
whispered “Cappuccino!” and walked toward the coffee bar that was
9
located just around the corner.
But then my mind

for Fridays!” This made me
pause; why wait to enjoy life until the weekend? Minutes later I walked back to my car with a cappuccino in my

This weekend, I’m running my 10th marathon. The weather looks perfect, and I’m ready — thanks to a
1
from the past.
Last year, at the Boston Marathon, I came in fit enough to know I was
2
of a personal best time.
However, three miles in, I realized I was hurting way too early. I convinced myself that I would never race in a
marathon again if I just

miles, after which I’d reassess the next

. By Mile 22, after a few miles of stretching and deep breathing,
I regained my strength and felt
6
to reclaim whatever time I could. I ended up
7
the last four
miles way faster than my initial pace.
8
, I’d
9
the marathon race into “process goals”, small objectives that were more within
my
10
, instead of focusing on my original “outcome goal” of running my fastest time ever. That can be a
remarkably effective strategy for all kinds of
11
. That’s because focusing on one step at a time can help
12
our anxiety and show us what we can
13
in the meantime.
Many people always aim for ambitious goals like
14
a dream job or winning an award. These can
be highly
15
, but they’re usually at least partially unmanageable and can lead to disappointment if you
fall short. Instead, focusing on smaller process goals can ultimately shape good outcomes.

Food has a special way of
1
people. As José Andres said, it brings back memories, unites people,
and
2
us to faraway places. My mom’s
3
cooking in Illinois, a French sandwich from a street
stand in Italy, and a grilled hot dog at the Grand Canyon with my family all hold precious
4
. These
moments remind us that food is more than sustenance — it’s a bridge between hearts, histories, and shared
experiences that linger long after the meal ends.
Trying different foods is like
5
new cultures. Sharing meals helps us understand others better.
Every bite gives
6
insight into the local community, whether it’s the spices of a Moroccan tagine or the
simplicity of a Japanese tea ceremony. That’s why we made a guide to the best
7
in each state, from
Alaska’s salmon salad rooted in Indigenous traditions to Wyoming’s bison burgers celebrating frontier heritage.
We also share a chef’s story of mastering all the recipes her mentor
8
with her, and customers’ tips
on the
9
that transformed her cooking. These tales feel like
10
wisdom from a kitchen
companion, — simple, heartfelt, and deeply warm.
As Anthony Bourdain said, food might not fix everything, but it’s a
11
start. Let’s begin by
12
new tastes. Whether at home or
13
, food connects us uniquely. So
14
a napkin and
enjoy every meal, which is a unique chance to
15
— whether through flavors, stories, or the quiet joy of
a shared table.

When people find out my son Sam is a competitive mathlete, they usually ask if my husband and I are “math
persons”. The answer is definitely not.
Ninth grade was
1
for Sam. To prepare for a competition, he took multiple practice tests, which
were sometimes as long as three hours. In the end, he didn’t do as well as he’d hoped and was
2
by a
math camp he’d applied to.
He wandered into my office one day last spring, murmuring.
“I just feel like the whole year’s been a
3
.”
I get it. How many days-weeks, months-have I “wasted” writing the
4
scene over and over again?
Writing a novel sometimes feels like two steps forward, one step back. But whenever I feel like that, I try to
5
myself that no matter what happens with my book, I’ve
6
the time I’ve spent working on it. The delight I
find in writing is
7
for me.
“Nothing’s ever wasted. You may not have gotten the
8
you wanted, but as you try to solve the
9
problems, you are making progress with each effort you make.”
He shrugged (耸肩) . “I feel like everyone else did better than me.”
Sam was talking about the
10
boards, where math kids come together to share resources and, more
often than not,
11
their wins.
“I know it feels that way, but it isn’t true. You know people
12
their successes far more than their
13
," I said, as much to myself as to Sam.
Just like Sam, I can’t control the
14
, only my input. To devote time to something with no
guarantee of its success is risky and terrifying. But, then again, so is everything.
And you don’t need to be a(n)
15
person to know that.

Newborn babies aren’t terrified of the dark. They don’t have a

soon nodded off. I was so tired. Writing

grew slowly.
Worn out, I forgot to buy a nightlight. The desk lamp was too bright. A nightlight was enough to help my
daughter see the outline of the

it to see; she needed it to feel

July is strange, but perfect doesn’t

In being a parent and a writer, there is no fixed

things that we must do are

longer afraid. It can be a light to guide you, to keep you going. To me, the shadowy light says, “don’t be scared,

I love sunflowers, and it’s always been a dream of mine to go to a sunflower field. A few years ago, I heard
about a field just outside London and planned to make the trip to see it. I was really excited, but when I got there, it
turned out that I’d

I knew exercise is good for health — who doesn’t? But
1
were easier. Running bored me, biking
sounded risky, and the gym seemed too much to handle. Each offered me a reason to
2
it, so I did.
When I worked in Kenya, I came to realize that people there don’t “
3
” the way I had thought.
Instead, they move — with a clear
4
in mind. They move to reach a destination. They move to hunt and
to tend crops. There is no such thing as a

, but they are working out 24-7. Maybe I could take
6
from these people and add meaning to my exercising. So, I launched my
7
program: “chicken-cising,”
with 15 baby chicks and a book on
8
backyard chickens.
It turned out that caring for the flightless birds was quite

bending, squatting (深蹲), weightlifting and running around. One weekend, my e-watch
10
as many as
145 squats and 10,506 steps!
I ended up in better shape than expected and found extra

First, quitting is not a(n)

simply decide not to

have unbeatable workout partners, who
14
respond to your appearance with encouragement. Bah-
Baaaahk! What’s more? Fresh-from-the-hen eggs!

It was a dark night. Thick, dark, gray clouds had made sure that there was no starlight or moonlight to
1
me as I walked out on my porch. Still, I kept the porch light off because I didn’t want to be
2
by bugs and
moths on this sticky summer evening. I stood there for a while letting my eyes adapt to the
3
of light. My
dog stood beside me waiting
4
for me to start her walk. It was then, though, that I saw them. First one
blink of light at the far end of the grassland was
5
by another and then another. I smiled. I recognized
them at once as my firefly friends, who always
6
this time of the year.
Witnessing them initially during my childhood days and later in my adulthood has provided me with
immeasurable joy. They never became
7
and they always filled me with delight. During my childhood, I
would often rest in the soft embrace of the grass, my gaze fixed upon them as they flew about, their lights twinkling
on and off like distant stars
8
in the earthly world. I never caught and put one in a jar as some kids did
because I was

I might kill it and I never wanted to hurt these

earth was so
11
as it was. I tried to enjoy them each night they were here. It always saddened me when
they disappeared in the fall and it always made my heart
12
when they reappeared the next summer.
I believe my profound fondness for these little fireflies stems from the recognition that, in numerous aspects,
we bear a

and off blinks rather than a

On a warm summer at a beautiful beach, a little boy on his knees is packing the sand into a bucket. He turns
the bucket upside down and
1
it. To the
2
of the little architect, a castle tower is created. He
will work all afternoon packing the walls, building sentries (哨兵) with bottle tops and bridges with sticks. And a
sandcastle will be built.
In a big city with busy streets and traffic, a man is working in an office. He packs papers into piles, holds the
phone between his
3
and shoulder and
4
the keyboard with his fingers. Contracts get signed
and to the joy of the man, a
5
is made. All his life he will work, creating the plans and forecasting the
future. His retirement income will be sentries and financial gains will be
6
. An empire will be built.
The two builders of the two castles
7
each other. They both shape smallness into greatness. They
both make something beautiful out of
8
. And for both, the tide will rise and the end will come. Yet that is
where the
9
stop. The little boy sees the end of his castle while the man
10
it. As the dusk
approaches and waves near, the child
11
to his feet and begins to clap as the waves wash away his
masterpiece. There is no sorrow, no
12
and no regret. He smiles and goes home.
The man in his office is not very
13
like the child. As his empire is fading, he is terrified, trying to
14
it. “It’s my castle!” He yells at the incoming tide.
Go ahead and build your dreams, but with a child’s heart. When the sun
15
and the tides take, just
applaud. Salute the process of life and go home with a smile.

I have plenty of memories of thinking I was going to pick up something new and stick with it — whether it
be playing the piano, or drawing. But there is always a part of me that
1
myself to be good at all of those
things. And when I’m not, the enjoyment
2
. I’ve come to realize that I have internalized (内化) all the
expectations to always excel (精通) on the skills I am
3
to. I’ve come to associate joy with
4
,
not enjoyment.
This is partly why I think averageness just isn’t
5
anymore, including in the hobbies you choose.
Even college
6
want to know your hobbies to see what else you’re good at. You have to
7
what you excelled at in these hobbies. This mindset is harmful because it’s
8
to be good at everything.
Writing was the only hobby that I have repeatedly come back to despite dropping it
9
. The
expectations I set for myself in becoming a better writer have
10
throughout the years. I’ve taken a
couple of writing classes to
11
this skill. I have seen the striking growth in my writing but the
expectations to be better is never
12
.
Actually, we have to
13
that it’s okay to not be good at something. That it is okay to just
14
at an activity but still doing it because it brings you joy. Maybe you never get better at the skills your hobbies teach
you. But as long as you are
15
, and it brings you joy, keep pursuing that hobby. After all, a hobby is an
activity one does during leisure time for pleasure.

Our family was sitting on the porch swing enjoying the summer breeze when my husband pointed to
something on the swing’s chain next to him. We
1
forward to see a large praying mantis (螳螂) attaching
to the chain. We held our
2
and watched, not wanting to scare it away. We sat and
3
chatted
for the next half hour as we watched the insect
4
up and down the chain. It seemed
5
by our
presence, and we were
6
to observe its slow, precise movements.
We wouldn’t have
7
it if my husband had not pointed it out. Too often, we move through life,
8
of the beautiful blessings surrounding us each day. The
9
of sitting and watching an insect for half
an hour is something I do not want to
10
for granted. Too often, I define myself by my productivity. I
start my morning with a checklist and
11
my worth by how much I get done by the day’s end.
I’m learning to
12
my tireless striving for productivity and simply
13
the gifts of this
beautiful world when I see them. Each creature displays a small

My 91-year-old grandfather called me to
1
his new hearing aid. For the first time in a long time,
he could hear my voice. It
2
us both.
I soon found out there was another reason my grandparents were so happy — their new audiologist (听觉病
矫治专家), Anna. Unlike the
3
providers they’d been dealing with, Anna gave time and attention. Anna
not only
4
the new hearing aid worked as it should, but also offered to go to my grandparents’ apartment
to show them how to use it.
Such
5
might sound rare, but I’ve since started wondering: What if it’s more common than we
think?
It started with some research that showed people often underestimate (低估) the
6
of strangers to
engage with, or even befriend them. Then I came across a study that
7
news coverage of current affairs
tends to be negative because humans tend to give negative events more attention.
8
stories can attract our attention and prepare us for disappointment. But if we don’t engage with
positive ones, they might lead us to be more critical of the world, more defensive and less
9
than we need
to be.
So I think sometimes what we hear, see, or even know might not be the whole picture. The truth might be
10
from us, requiring us to notice and discover it. We could start by asking ourselves whether we are
11
more on negative or positive stories. Maybe even paying more attention to good news or
12
good news
will help.
Anna’s attitude was remarkable. She

the call of duty and, upon leaving,

to accept
anything but words as thanks.

In the dim light of my high school library, I developed an unusual habit. Whenever I grabbed a novel from
the shelves, my fingers would instinctively flip (快速翻转) to the final chapter while I’m still in the middle of it.
Often my
1
wouldn’t be limited just to the books I read but also to what others were reading as well.
Finally one day my daughter told me with a little
2
, “Dad, please just read a book one page at a time like
everyone else!”
Sometimes this bad habit was not
3
to just reading books either. I also tried to skip ahead in my
life and
4
what to do months and even years from now instead of
5
each day as it is intended.
I knew that the book of my life wasn’t done yet and that I had many
6
left to go.
7
, that didn’t
stop me from trying to write the ending half-way through. At times, I would jump ahead without
8
and
try to solve every potential problem before it happened. Life, however, doesn’t work like that. It loves to
9
us, and you never know what new problem or opportunity each new day will bring.
Life, however,
10
to follow our rushed plans. Recently, when I found myself returning to that bad
habit of rushing ahead and living in the

day at a time”. When I heard those words, I

page, and thanked God for today.

4, 000 meters is the highland ___57___: gravel(砾石), stones and rocks. ___58___ you climb into an arctic-like

about one in ten places ___43___ him food that would otherwise be discarded.
For legal ___44___, most restaurants have a policy against ___45___ food waste. "Some people have even
___46___ their jobs by giving me food," Dubanchet said.
What's ___47___ interesting is the attitude various cities have toward Dubanchet’s cause. Berlin has been the
___48___ while the most difficult was the Czech town of Pilsen. There, he had to ___49___ at some 50
different stores or restaurants before finding food. The 50
is all the more serious when you consider the
___51___ exercise required to bike from France to Poland.
"I have to get food ___52___ because after all the biking I am tired and I need the ___53___,"

reproduction. This ___48___ Emma to give birth to five baby cranes.
The two keepers are proud of their productive work. But before they can be ___49___, more efforts must be

5.【2018 年全国Ⅰ卷】During my second year at the city college, I was told that the education department was
offering a “free” course, called Thinking Chess, for three credits. I 41 the idea of taking the class because,
after all, who doesn’t want to 42 a few dollars? More than that, I’d always wanted to learn chess. And, even if
I weren’t 43 enough about free credits, news about our 44 was appealing enough to me. He was an
international grandmaster, which 45 I would be learning from one of the game’s 46 . I could hardly wait

him.
Maurice Ashley was kind and smart, a former graduate returning to teach, and this
48
was no game
for him; he meant business. In his introduction, he made it 49 that our credits would be hard-earned. In
order to 50 the class, among other criteria, we had to write a paper on how we plan to 51 what we
would learn in class to our future professions and, 52 , to our lives. I managed to get an A in that 53 and
learned life lessons that have served me well beyond the 54 .
Ten years after my chess class with Ashley, I’m still putting to use what he 55 me: “The absolute most
important 56 that you learn when you play chess is how to make good 57 . On every single move you
have to 58 a situation, process what your opponent (对手) is doing and 59 the best move from among
all your options.” These words still ring true today in my 60 as a journalist.

The Homeless Hero
For many, finding an unattended wallet filled with £400 in cash would be a source（来源）of temptation（诱
惑）. But the 16 would no doubt be greater if you were living on the streets with little food and money. All of
this makes the actions of the homeless Tom Smith 17 more remarkable.
After spotting a 18 on the front seat inside a parked car with its window down, he stood guard in the
rain for about two hours waiting for the 19 to return.
After hours in the cold and wet, he 20 inside and pulled the wallet out hoping to find some ID so he
could contact（联系）the driver, only to 21 it contained £400 in notes, with another £50 in spare change
beside it.
He then took the wallet to a nearby police station after 22 a note behind to let the owner know it was
safe. When the car’s owner John Anderson and his colleague Carol Lawrence returned to the car—which was itself
worth £35, 000—in Glasgow city centre, they were 23 to find two policemen standing next to it. The
policemen told them what Mr. Smith did and that the wallet was 24 .
The pair were later able to thank Mr. Smith for his 25 .
Mr. Anderson said: ＂I couldn’t believe that the guy never took a penny. To think he is sleeping on the streets
tonight 26 he could have stolen the money and paid for a place to stay in. This guy has nothing and 27
he didn’t take the wallet for himself；he thought about others 28 . It’s unbelievable. It just proves there are
29 guys out there.＂
Mr. Smith’s act 30 much of the public’s attention. He also won praise from social media users after
Mr. Anderson 31 about the act of kindness on Facebook.
Now Mr. Anderson has set up an online campaign to 32 money for Mr. Smith and other homeless
people in the area, which by yesterday had received £8,000. ＂I think the faith that everyone has shown 33
him has touched him. People have been approaching him in the street; he’s had job 34 and all sorts,＂ Mr.
Anderson commented.
For Mr. Smith, this is a possible life-changing 35 . The story once again tells us that one good turn
deserves another.
