1、短文填空题答题指导一、短文填空题型说明短文填空也叫综合填空,其特点是将一篇短文中的若干个词抽出后,要求考生根据短文的意思,在每个空格中填上一个词,使短文意思完整正确。它是测试同学们理解能力及对词汇、语法和习惯用法等的掌握情况的一种形式。这是中考中一个比较难的项目。其原因是考点不明确:凡涉及英文的理解、词汇、语法和习惯用法的都可以考。内容更是包罗万象:天文地理、历史人文、科技发展、旅游广告等。要求同学们在读通、读懂的基础上,填出符合内容和语法的词或词组。凡是课文中学到的词汇和语法都是考试的范围,各种介词、副词和习惯用法也会经常考到。尤其对于长句子,特别要注意其结构,要精确地分析句子成分。在做综合
2、填空时,要养成快速阅读全文的习惯。句子读得越快越长,理解的精度就越高。根据其难度的不同又分为选词填空题、限词填空题和自由填空题。二、短文填空解题思路 1. 跳过空格,通读短文,了解大意。解题时先跳过空格,通读完形填空的短文,了解全篇的内容和要旨。要重视首句,善于以首句的时态、语气为立足点,理清文脉,推测全文时态、主题及大意。2. 复读短文,确定语义,判断词形。把握短文大意后再认真复读短文,利用上下文的语境,结合所学过的知识,先确定空格处所需词语的意义,再根据空格在句子中的位置,判断其在句中充当的成分,从而确定所填词的词性,再依据词语搭配和语法规则,判断所填的词的正确形式。 3. 三读短文,上下
3、参照,验证答案。在短文的空白处分别填上一个词后,将完成的短文再细读一遍,上下参照,连贯思考。可从上、下文内容是否协调一致、顺理成章,语法结构是否正确无误等进行综合验证,凡有疑问必须重新推敲考虑。三、做短文填空题的注意之处 1. 语义完整、适用是做好填词的前提,要从全文的内容出发,前后上下联系起来考虑,避免“只见树木,不见森林”的错误。2. 要善于从文中同样结构或类似结构中寻找线索,从中得到提示和启发,帮助确定应填词的词性和词形,这样可避免想当然地随意乱填。3. 填词时应注意词形,不可简单地都填原形词。若空格内填的是名词,要考虑其单复数形式;若填的是形容词或副词,则要考虑其是否属于比较等级;如若
4、填的是动词,则要特别注意考虑其时态和语态。如在句首,还要考虑其首字母的大写。4. 有些空格需要填入介词、连词等,除考虑上下文的内容外,还要考虑和其他词的固定搭配及其习惯用法。5. 选词填空题和限词填空题一般只有一个答案,自由填空题虽然可能允许有多个正确答案,但只能选择其中一个填入,因为完形填空题每个空格只准填写一个单词,多填反而出错。1Now I tell you a short story “ Dare to fly”.
