初中英语专题完形填空教案 一．教学目标 知识目标：学生正确理解并掌握1.论证法 2.推理法 3.上下文搜索法答案。 4.排除法在完形填空中的运用。 能力目标：提高完型填空的正确率；扩充学生的词汇和习语；扩充和巩固学生的语法项目；发展一般性的阅读技能；掌握推导性的阅读技能；掌握批判性的阅读技能；通过各种技能获取有用的信息。 二．重、难点分析 如何引导学生将所学的完形填空技巧数量的运用的日常完型填空中去 三、教学过程 根据完形填空的试题特点，我们可以采取以下几种方法： 1.论证法 根据上下文的意思，运用所学的词汇和语法知识，从句子结构和意义上进行分析，并判断所选词语是否正确。 2.推理法 根据考生对整篇短文的理解，对文章的主题，情节的发展做出合理的推断。 3.上下文搜索法 完形填空给出的是都是整篇的文章，文章本身就是前后一致的。我们可能从上下文中找到提示或发现答案。 4.排除法 在无法确定答案的时候，我们可以采取排除法，逐一验证四个选项，以将错误答案一一排除后得出正确答案。 [解题步骤] 要做好完形填空题，可依据以下几个步骤进行： 1. 通读全文掌握大意 由于完形填空是一个整篇的文章，因此千万不要看一个空选择一个空。在答题之前要快速地将文章通读一遍，了解文章的大意。 完形填空的第一句一般是不留空的，并且第一句话很关键。它往往是文章的主题句，所以我们要加以重视。另外在快速阅读时应抓住文章的关键句，比如文章的第一句，段落的第一句和最后一句等。它们往往是全文或全段的主题句，通过它们可以知道文章的题材，大意，时间，人物，事件等。比如2003年福建省福州市中考题中的完形填空的第一句话是：Mr Green was ill and went to the hospital. 通过这句话我们可知这是一篇记叙文，主人公是Mr Green ，主要内容是到医院看病。 另外在阅读中要对其中的时间词，动词要加以注意。 2. 精读试填

完形填空练习 【考点分析】主要考查语法知识、单词拼写能力和逻辑推理能力等，对基础相对薄弱的学生，尤其是英语语法基础相对薄弱的学生有一定的难度。 【复习策略】掌握句子的基本结构 首先，我们必须熟练掌握简单句的基本句型结构： （1）主语+谓语（+宾语+宾补） （2）主语+系动词+表语 其次，我们要充分了解充当各个句子成分的典型词类： （1）充当主语或宾语的典型词类是名词或代词。此外，还有动名词、不定式短语等。 （2）充当谓语的一定是动词。 （3）充当补语或表语的典型词类是形容词。 （4）在名词前作定语的典型词类是形容词或形容词性物主代词。 （5）作状语的典型词类是副词。 再次，我们还要掌握句子的扩展结构：两个或几个简单句之间若不用句号或分号，就必须要用连词，否则，句子的结构就不完整。连词主要有以下四类： （1）用and,but,or,while(而，却)，when（就在这个时候）等构成并列句。用if,unless,before,after,until,although,though,as,since,because,so,so that 等构成含状语从句的复合句（这里要注意区分一下复杂句和复合句，复合句是包含在复杂句这个概念里面的,在下文的基础写作部分有提到）。 （3）用who,which,that,when,where,why等构成含定语从句的复合句。（这里要提醒考生的是往往不给任何提示的空就是填连词或关系词的，但也须结合句子
结构来分析。） （4）用that,if/whether(是否)，wh-等构成含名词性从句的复合句。 【解题方法】用句子结构分析法巧解语法填空.分析句子的结构对解答语法填空题很有帮助。在解答语法填空题时，分析句子结构可以迅速确定所要填的词语的词类或大致方向，若再结合语境就可以很快得出具体的词语或词形，结合语境方面要特别注意短文的时态和上下文中的一些提示。 【经典例题】阅读下面短文，根据上下文填入适当的词语，或使用括号中的词语的适当形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡上标号的相应位置。 The Internet has become part of young people’s life. ____1____ report shows that 38% of students often use the Internet .

完形填空 一、完形填空题，有以下几个特点： 1. 短文难度基本稳定，与高中英语教材课文难易基本相当。 2. 短文选材一般为故事性文章，极少采用其他题材的文章。但往往不按时间顺序平铺直叙， 有插叙或倒叙。有时还夹有描述和议论。 3. 短文的第一句不设空格，提供给考生一个思路，以便考生做题。 4. 考查内容主要是逻辑上的通顺，极少是考语法。所以每题四个选项大多属同一语法范畴。 5. 短文长度基本稳定，一般在250～300个单词左右。 二、完形填空选项设置的几个特点 1. 同义、近义词辨析型。多倾向考查动词、名词、形容词。 2. 固定搭配型。多倾向考查动词和介词或副词、名词和介词、形容词和介词，典型句子结构 的搭配 3. 常用语法。时态和语态、从句连词。 4.根据上下文的逻辑关系确定选项型 三、完形填空的解题步骤 1、通读全文，领会大意（2－3分钟） 2、逐句阅读，选出答案（6－7分钟） 3.猜测难点、整体复查（2－3分钟） 1．跳过空格、通读全文、把握大意。先跳过空格，通读试题所给的要完形填空的短文，获得整体印象，做到弄清文脉、抓住主旨，较好地把握短文大意。要在阅读理解短文意思的 基础上才开始判定选择，切忌仓促下笔。 2．结合选项、综合考虑、初定答案。在理解全文意思的基础上，再结合所给备选项细读全文，联系上、下文内容，注意从上、下文的语法结构和词语搭配及从选择项中寻找解题的 提示，以词、句的意义为先，再从分析句子结构入手，根据短文意思、语法规则、词语固定 搭配等进行综合考虑，对备选项逐一进行分析、比较和筛选，排除干扰项、初步选定答案。 3．瞻前顾后、先易后难、各个击破。动笔时要瞻前顾后、通篇考虑、先易后难。对比较明显直接的、自己最有把握的答案先做，一下子不能确定答案的，先跳过这一空格，继续往 下做，最后回过头来再集中精力解决难点。这时可结合已确定答案的选项再读一遍短文，随
