第7讲 完形填空-2023年江苏省中考英语考前必看必练10讲

中考完形填空

(1) 词汇复现
词汇复现是指某一个词以原词或同义词等方式在同一语篇中重复出现。语篇中的句子通过复现关系达到相互衔接的目的。
词汇复现又可分为原词复现、同义词复现、近义词复现、上下义复现(即总括与分述,如animal是sheep,tiger等词的上义词;rose是flower的下义词)等。
例Justin was really good at basketball and he thought it was the only way out of his school. He could run with the　　　fast and beat any of the older boys at the court and the younger boys didn’t have a chance. 
A.toy B.ball C.key D.flag
【答案】B
【解析】本题虽考查名词词义,但实际是一道词汇复现题,根据第一句中“Justin擅长打篮球”,可以判断下文提到的是“他可以带球跑得很快”,故ball复现了basketball。

(2) 逻辑推理
根据上下文的逻辑关系来推断正确答案,逻辑关系包括并列关系、转折关系、因果关系、递进关系、对比关系等。
例At last, to my total shame, another student took my place. I　　　 that my father rewrote my first article himself, instead of simply trying to help me to improve it. But in my heart I knew it was my fault because I allowed him to do it. 
A.agreed B.realized C.remembered D.complained
【答案】D
【解析】最后一句的含义是“但是在我心里我知道是我的错,因为我允许了他这么做”。通过此句,我们可以推断出作者在上一句中表达的是对他爸爸的抱怨与不满。

例I worked with all the students in Ronny’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny’s 　　　　, I’d give him a silent smile, and he’d fly out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen. 
A.team B.term C.turn D.tour
【答案】C
【解析】此题考查相近词形的名词辨析。team是“团队,组”,term是“学期”,turn是“翻转,机会”,tour是“旅行”。结合上文中的one by one我们可知作者是逐个地提高学生的阅读能力,所以指轮到Ronny了。

例The young boy caught Mrs. Smith’s attention because he wore a patch over one eye. She
felt 　　　 at how natural he seemed to be even though he lost one of his eyes. 
A.bored B.angry C.surprised D.tired
【答案】C
【解析】此题考查形容词辨析。通过下文提到的男孩儿尽管失去了一只眼睛,戴着眼罩,但很是自然,所以史密斯夫人觉得很“吃惊”。

例It was several days later that he was finally able to have a talk. I held his hand 　　　 afraid of hurting him. 
A.happily B.gently C.safely D.hardly
【答案】B
【解析】后面说到害怕弄疼他,应该是“轻轻地”握着他的手,故选gently。

(3) 常识背景
通过了解必要的常识背景来解题,如考生自身的生活经验、文化背景知识以及科普常识等。
例When he saw the　　　 “Mother’s Day” card he realized it was Mother’s Day. 
A.same B.healthy C.old D.beautiful
【答案】D
【解析】依靠对节日的了解及生活常识,母亲节贺卡应该是“漂亮的”。
