高三英语完型填空

2023届新高考英语二轮复习攻破新题完型填空01：题型精讲及解题技巧【考情分析】（一）考纲解读完形填空是一种综合测试，涉及的知识面很广，是用来测试考生的阅读理解能力和综合应用语言的能力。

测试目的是考查大家对语篇语意的连贯性和运用语言的准确性，以及考查大家对上下文的精细理解和缜密的逻辑判断能力。

新高考I卷及近年的课标卷完形填空以记叙文为主，以夹叙夹议、说明文为辅。

主题语境包括人与自我、人与社会、人与自然。

考点设置以实词为主，其中对动词、名词以及形容词的考查数量最多。

题目把上下文语境理解放在第一位，词汇运用等放在第二位。

第一句不设空，短文设空平均间距为10至15词。

每小题所给的四个选项大多属于同一词类或同一范畴。

具体表现在以下几个方面：(1)词语辨析能力(2)语法结构分析能力(3)语篇理解能力(4)逻辑推理能力(5)文化背景透析能力(6)作者意图剖析能力(7)生活常识综合运用能力命题规律：（二）解题原则“先完意，后完形”。

（三）命题趋势1.未来高考完形填空可能会继续以记叙文为主。

文章选材传递“正能量”，对学生的人生观、价值观的树立会有指导作用。

2.所设选项更具有干扰性和迷惑性，直接根据语法和固定搭配就能选出答案的试题越来越少，设空与语境的联系更加密切。

（四）题型特点1、首句不设空：因为首句是文章的窗口，不设空有助于考生了解或推测全文的大意，2、选项特点：同一小题的四个选项必须是同一词类，且为同一语法形式。

3、设空方式：命题者主要从以下三种层面上设题。

①句子层面：在理解本句的基础上重要信息点可能在空格前，也可能在空格后。

②句组层面：考生需在理解空格所在句及其前一句或后一句之后才可选出正确答案。

③语篇层面：必须理解前后几句或上下段落，甚至整个篇章，才可选出正确答案。

4、题材：说明文或夹叙夹议的文章。

5、内容：完整，逻辑性强，语言结构严谨。

6、考察重点：多为实词，即名/代/动词/形容/副词等。

【夺分攻略】针对完形填空，我们要像侦探一样，利用未设空的已知线索，通过分析排查，找出与设空相关联的线索，再利用这些线索进行逻辑推理，从而最终得出正确答案。

I myself went through this 41 process and found something that has changed my 42 at college for the better: I discovered ASL — American Sign Language (美式手语).I never felt an urge to 43 any sign language before. My entire family is hearing, and so are all my friends. The 44 languages were enough in all my interactions (交往). Little did I know that I would discover my 45 for ASL.The 46 began during my first week at college. I watched as the ASL Club 47 their translation of a song. Both the hand movements and the very 48 of communicating without speaking 49 me. What I saw was completely unlike anything I had experienced in the 50 . This newness just left me 51 more.After that, feeling the need to 52 further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL club’s meetings. I only learned how to 53 the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my 54 progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to 55 those meetings and learn all I could.The following term, I 56 an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was 57 . I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. 58 , if there had been any talking, it would have 59 us to learn less.

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 to 47 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.41.A. put forward B. jumped at C. tried out D. turned down42.A. waste B. earn C. save D. pay43.A. excited B. worried C. moved D. tired44.A. title B. competitor C. textbook D. instructor45.A. urged B. demanded C. held D. meant46.A. fastest B. easiest C. best D. rarest47.A. interview B. meet C. challenge D. beat48.A. chance B. qualification C. honor D. job49.A. real B. perfect C. clear D. possible50.A. attend B. pass C. skip D. observe51.

The 42 might damage the beauty of the place.

I find a 47 mountain, with toilets at camps and along the paths. The environmental challenges are 48 but the efforts made by the Tanzania National Park Authority seem to be 49 .The best of a Kilimanjaro 50 , in my opinion, isn’t reaching the top.Mountains are 51 as spiritual places by many cultures. This 52 is especially evident on Kilimanjaro as 53 go through five ecosystems（生态系统）in the space of a few kilometers. At the base is a rainforest. It ends abruptly at 3, 000 meters, 54 lands of low growing plants. Further up, the weather 55 —low clouds envelope the mountainsides, which are covered with thick grass.

1.2024届上海市宝山区高三英语二模专题汇编：完形填空For decades,people have guessed that artificial intelligence(AI)will eventually replace human workers.But developments in the past few years have41these concerns as companies have released AI that can answer questions,42of AI replacing them.But write articles and create images.Now,even people in creative fields must consider themany experts still insist that these AI programs are no substitute for human ability.AI programs have the43to perform some tasks currently performed by human workers.These include media jobs,such as writing advertisements and articles,along with many jobs in the financial fields and even tech-related jobs such as computer programming.AI is good at44data,so financial analysts and market research analysts may find their jobs45.Using AI for certain tasks may be a good thing.Perhaps AI will46less interesting work,allowing people to do more satisfying jobs,just as earlier technologies ing a machine to do laundry saves time47to washing clothes by hand,and many people use that extra time productively.48,AI may be able to take over dull tasks, liberating people to be truly creative,since thinking up new ideas is something AI cannot do.Another big challenge for AI is human49.Most people prefer to communicate with humans rather than machines.Hence,AI is50to replace humans for jobs that require personal connection,such as counseling or teaching.A robot can perform tasks,but it cannot51care about others,and sometimes care is what people need.AI can process data quickly,but it can only use data that it is given.So it cannot adapt to situations that52 significantly from those in its data.Thus,although some AI programs can create content,none of them can be truly creative as the content AI creates will53consist of some combination of its sources.Finally,if the AI receives false information,it has no way of recognizing that as false.Humans can also be fooled,but54,AI must continually life experience can tell them whether a claim is reasonable,an ability that AI does not have.be fact-checked to make sure its data,and therefore its conclusions,are accurate.55.At best AI may eliminate

Science.Psychology researchers Anna V.Fisher,Karrie E.Godwin and Howard Seltman of Carnegie Mellon University looked at whether classroom displays affected children’s ability to maintain42during instruction and to learn the lesson content.They found that children in highly decorated classrooms were more distracted,spent more time off-task and demonstrated smaller learning43than when the decorations were removed.“Young children spend a lot of time—usually the whole day—in the same classroom,and we have shown that a classroom’s44environment can affect how much children learn,”said Fisher,lead author and associate professor of psychology in the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences.Should teachers45their visual displays based on the findings of this study?“We do not suggest by any means that this is the answer to all46problems.Furthermore, 47research is needed to know what effect the classroom visual environment has on children’s attention and learning in real classrooms,”Fisher said.“48,I would suggest that instead of removing all decorations,teachers should consider whether some of their visual displays do make it difficult for young children to49.”For the study,24kindergarten students were placed in50classrooms for six introductory science lessons on topics they were unfamiliar with.Three lessons were taught in a heavily decorated classroom,and three lessons were given in a sparse(稀疏的)classroom.The results showed that while children learned in both51types,they learned more when the room was not heavily decorated.Specifically,children’s52on the test questions was higher in the sparse classroom(55%correct)than in the decorated classroom(42%correct).“We were also interested in finding out if the visual displays were removed,whether the children’s attention would 53to another distraction,such as talking to their peers,or the total amount of time they were distracted would remain the same,”said Godwin,a Ph.D.candidate in psychology and fellow of the Program in Interdisciplinary Education Research.However,when the researchers totaled all of the time children spent off-task in both types of classrooms,the rate of off-task54was higher in the decorated classroom(38.6%time spent off-task)than in the sparse classroom(28.4% time spent off-task).The researchers hope these findings will lead to further studies into developing

Mexican immigrants,Juan,Oscar,Luis,and Alfredo.These boys,coming from____41____backgrounds,often found themselves overlooked and underestimated.Bonded by fate and friendship,they shared a common passion for ____42____.Two science teachers there decided to enter their high school into a complicated____43____robotics competition sponsored by the NASA and the Naval Research.Excited for the news,these four boys signed up for the competition.With enthusiasm and energy,they started calling mechanical engineers for design help.They were____44____that these kinds of robots require glass syntactic flotation foam,a type of floating material used in various marine applications.____45____money,all they could afford was some PVC pipes and duct tape(强力胶布).____46____,they searched the city for various spare parts,gathering whatever they could to bring their vision to life.With the teachers’guidance and encouragement,they____47____together a robot with no more than metal and wires.As they worked on their robot,the boys also faced personal challenges.Juan struggled with the weight of family responsibilities;Oscar____48____a deep-seated fear of failure;Luis’s heart ached from the constant peers’mockery(嘲笑)for his____49____accent,and Alfredo longed for acceptance and belonging.____50____these obstacles,they persevered,leaning on each other for support and inspiration.After a few test runs of their robot,they piled into a second-hand van to head to the competition.Upon entering the main pool area,they noticed the college teams wearing matching outfits,with robots sponsored by big companies. Feeling a bit nervous,the boys put the robot in the water for a test run.____51____,the PVC didn’t hold up,causing the robot to leak and sink.However,instead of letting this____52____ruin their spirits,the boys put their heads together and came up with a brilliant solution.12hours later,armed with8super-absorbent pads to plug the leak,the robot was____53____into the pool again.This time,their robot performed admirably.Gliding gracefully through the waters,it navigated the course with precision and speed,____54____the judges and audience alike.This underwater robot,a symbol of their determination and____55____,conquered the waters,defeated engineering powerhouse MIT and ranked first in the country.This was not just a win for those four but a victory for every underdog with a dream.41.

Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short.The handful of studies looking into the issue have used language lessons that were very different in their__55__and frequency.Some studies taught participants for eight months,others for just one very intense week.41.

You probably vow(发誓)to___42___dollar pizza slices the rest of the month to balance out this dinner.___43___,this time,what if you just turned to your friend,closed the menu,and said,“Sorry,I have to be honest.I can’t afford this. Let’s go somewhere else?”That’s the idea behind“loud budgeting”,a trend that could not only relieve you of the___44___burden,but help you deal with these sorts of stressful situations both mentally and emotionally.In an age when everybody is showing off nice things on social media and___45___to be something they’re not,it feels somewhat revolutionary to just tell the truth about what you can’t afford.The term was first introduced by TikTok(抖音)comedian Lukas Battle.Battle explained his concept in an interview: simply put,loud budgeting is being___46___about what you do and don’t want to spend money on.Since his video,the concept has caught on rapidly among the___47___,who are pointing out that it has come at a significant time when everything is uncontrollably expensive.It’s not just a TikTok thing though.Even those in the financial services industry are on board with the___48___. Nikolina Cuca,a financial advisor,says that she’s seen social media add pressure to her clients,causing them to spend ___49___on luxury items.“There should be no shame about trying to match your spending to your means.This trend helps young people moderate spending by___50___the idea of living within budgets.”Beyond just saving money,loud budgeting is also bringing people closer.Honest money talks lead to greater respect among friends and family.By___51___discussing money goals,people are creating stronger bonds based on mutual understanding for each other’s financial situations.And perhaps the most valuable part of the loud budgeting trend is that it provides a sense of___52___.For example,if you tell a friend you are trying to cut back spending on drinks out,you are much___53___to stick with the goal than if you just keep it to yourself.With its focus on being open,spending wisely,and building___54___,loud budgeting is more than just a passing trend,but a cool way for the younger generation to___55___their finances.As more people adopt this approach,it is likely to stay a big part of how we handle money in the future.41.

He _36_ and example those students will never forget.He pulled out a wide jar and put it on the table. He also _37_ about a dozen rocks and carefully _38_ them into the jar. One at a time. When no more rocks world _39_ inside, he asked, “Is this jar full?”Everyone in the class answered loudly, “Yes.” The expert said, “Really?” He _40_ under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel(砾石). He put some gravel in and _41_ the jar, causing it to go down into the _42_ between the big rocks. He then asked the gro up once more, “Is this jar full?”“_43_ not,” one of them answered this time. “Good!” he replied. From under the table he brought out a bucket of sand and started _44_ the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left _45_ the rocks and the gravel. One more he asked the question, “Is this jar full?”“No!” the class shouted. Once again he said, “Good.” Th en he _46_ a cup of water in _47_ the jar was full. Then he looked at the class and asked, “What is the _48_ here?”Immediately one _49_ student raised his hand and said, “The point is, no matter how full your _50_ is, if you try really hard, you can always fit _51_ things in!” “No,” the expert replied. “That's not the point. The point is that if you don't put the big rocks in _52_, you'll never get them in _53_. What are the ‘big rocks’ in your _54_? Time with your loved ones, your education, or your dreams? Remember to put these big rocks in first or you'll never get them in at all, _55_ you'll never have the real quality time you need to spend on the big, important things.”36.
