完形填空——专项讲解完形考察趋势，命题特点1. 篇章短小, 意义完整——内容完整,逻辑性强,语言结构严谨——语篇理解能力2. 首句完整, 主题明确——第一句话不设空，让读者迅速进入语境——作者意图剖析能力3. 考查语境, 侧重辨析——考察近义词语细微差别的辨析——词语辨析能力4. 实词为主, 虚词为辅——考察重点多为实词:名/代/动词/形容/副词等.5. 逻辑推理, 结构清晰——关注语境背景知识,侧重文章上下关联,暗示——逻辑推理能力判断能力，生活常识综合运用能力6. 常识语法, 每年出现。
——固定搭配，句子结构的分析，非谓语动词等！——语法结构分析能力考察方式选材特点: 以记叙文为主, 多以记叙文和夹叙夹意为主命题特点: (1) 设空特点: 名词\ 动词(5-8个)为主(2) 考点层次分三部:里边层次：(语篇层次30%以上)体现了突出语篇的命题思路句子层次：(占70%左右)单词层次：(只须读懂单词所在句子就能做,分数较少)(3)考查特点: 短文第一句不设问.存在缺失：1、忽视行文逻辑，断章取义，就题论题。
未通读全文便忙于答题，不了解文意，无整体概念边读边填，两眼忙于空白与选项之间2、脱离语境，滥用固定搭配。
只抠字眼，语法，不顾文意，抓不住关键。
3、缺乏必要的生活常识和不了解中西文化的差异。
不管前后联系，互不照应，前后矛盾。
完形填空的题型特色1、填空类型分析完形填空题的词项有两大类：实词和虚词。
实词指：动词、名词、形容词、副词、代词和数词；虚词指：介词及介词短语、连词和冠词。
还有一种划分是把完形填空题分为语义和动能两大类，如果该题型要求考生填入实词，这种填空题为语义类；如果该题型要求考生填入虚词，这种填空题为功能类。
2、短文长度分析从短文的长度来看，近10年高考中，每篇短文平均为221个单词。
3、间隔设计分析完形填空题的难易取决于两个因素：1）所取的短文本身所含的生词量、语法、句子结构、句子长短、文化背景等；2）空格之间的长度，空格与空格之间的长度越长，填空难度就越小，长度越小难度就越大。

许多人喜欢看它们游来游去。
很多人认为金鱼只有三秒钟的记忆。
这是真的吗?科学家们进行了一项实验，发现了一些令人惊奇的事情。
让我们来看看。
In a simple experiment, scientists kept a small tank of goldfish. They put a red Lego brick (乐高积木块)in the fish’s tank every time they fed the hsh. At first, the goldfish were a bit afraid of it. But after three weeks, they swam to the red Lego to wait for their food. Then, the scientists left the fish by themselves for a week. When they put the red Lego in the tank again, the fish remembered it and came for food. In fact, goldfish have a good memory. They can remember things for up to five months.在一个简单的实验中，科学家们养了一个小鱼缸里的金鱼。

Please come in and have a rest.”“We do not go into a house together,” they replied.“Why?” she asked.One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth, and he is Success, and I am Love. You need to discuss 3 your family which one you want to invite.”The woman went back into the house and told her husband about it. Her husband was very happy. “How 4 !”, he said. “Let us invite Wealth. He can fill our home with 5 !” His wife disagreed. “My dear, why don’t we invite Success?” Their daughter suggested: “Wouldn’t it be better to 6 Love?

第18讲完型指导一小六英语完型解题技巧完形题是进入小升初后孩子普遍认为难的一种题型，完形考查孩子的阅读、语法、逻辑推理、上下文联系、固定搭配等综合能力。
这种题型对于孩子英语综合能力的考察体现得淋淋漓尽致，所以很多中学在考试时，完型占整个英语试卷相当高的比例，有时可达20%。
建议：（1）略读全文，掌握大意。
做完形时，切不可边读边选，很可能造成断章取义，一空填错，后边都跟着填错。
较好的办法是先花1-2分钟把文章略读一下，理清文章的脉络（2）瞻前顾后，谨慎选择。
完形的每个空格究竟哪个选项恰当，取决于多个方面。
最重要的即为语境，也就是上下文。
做完形时，一定要通过上文或下文选出正确答案。
第二是语法知识，在完形中也会涉及到基本的语法知识考点，这就要求查缺补漏，从语法角度考虑；第三为必要的常识；第四为一些近义词的辨析和一些固定搭配。
（3）复读全文，仔细检查。
选完后，最好再用一分钟将短文从头看一遍，阅读时，对感觉不恰当的，再进行修改。

阅读完形专练一、阅读理解AHow does your skin smell? Pretty well, as it turns out, thanks to receptors that can be found all over you. What’s more, they could help you heal.There are more than 350 types of olfactory(嗅觉) receptors in the nose, noticing different scents. About 150 are also found in body issues such as those of the heart, liver and gut(胃)，but they are hard to study.Hanns Hatt’s lab at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany focused on skin, which is easier to study, and tasted the response to scents(pleasant smells) of receptors in keratinocytes(角质化细胞)，the main skin cell type.They found that an olfactory receptor in skin called OR2AT4 respond to man-made sandalwood(檀香) perfumes and skin care products. Rather than sending a message to the brain, as nose receptors do, the receptor caused cells to divide and migrate, important processes in repairing damaged skin.Cell growth increased by 32 percent and cell migration by nearly half when keratinocytes in a test tube were mixed for five days with man-made sandalwood.“There is a big trend towards olfactory receptors being found elsewhere in the body doing other jobs.” Says Joel Mainland o the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia. So it is not unexpected to find receptors in skin, but it is a surprise to learn that they are involved in wound healing.Hatt and Mainland both caution that these olfactory receptors are very finely adjusted, as is shown by their distinguishing between various man-made kinds of sandalwood. And there is genetic variability in human receptors, so your receptor might be a bit different from your neighbor’s.It leaves open the question of whether receptors might differ so much between individuals that the man-made sandalwood that benefits one person might be useless or even poisonous to anotherHatt says the 150-200 olfactory receptors identified in tissue outside the nose represent a new family of targets for experiments and new opportunities to treat disease.Treatments that heal wounds and repair the effects of ageing in the skin are likely to be the easiest to develop, he says. Understanding receptors on internal (inside your body) organs and creating beneficial drugs is likely to take longer.( )1.What can we learn about OR2A T4?A. It is a kind of nose keratinocyte.B. It works like a nose receptor.C. It can help damaged skin recover.D. It can be found in man-made sandalwood.( )2.How did the scientists observe olfactory receptor’s reactions to scents?A.

Which of the following about olfactory receptors is amazing?A. They are found in skin.B. They can do other jobs.C. They may help heal wounds.D. They exists all over the body.( )4.Man-made sandalwood may be harmful to someone because_________.A. sandalwood scents are sometimes unsafe.B. receptors may be different among people.C. some individual’s s kin is unable to smell.D. man-made products have some side effects.BWhat inspires people to act selflessly, help others, and make personal sacrifices? Each quarter, this column features one piece of scholarly research that provides insight on what motivates people to engage in what psychologists call "prosocial behavior"— things like making charitable contributions, buying gifts, volunteering one's time, and so forth. In short, it looks at the work of some of our finest researchers on what spurs people to do something on behalf of someone else.This quarter we focus on how perceptions of "group membership" can influence whether others decide to help us in emergency situations. A 2005 British study reported in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin shows that bystanders are more likely to help strangers in distress when they recognize such strangers as belonging to a common group. However, what counts as group membership is not fixed. When people are encouraged to see greater commonalities with strangers, they will extend help to those whom they may have otherwise considered part of the "out group."Two studies conducted at Lancaster University in the UK played on the intense rivalry between fans of two English football teams, Manchester United and Liverpool. In the first study, Manchester United fans were recruited to fill out questionnaires about their interest in the team and the degree to which they identified as fans. They were then invited to walk across campus to see a video about football teams. Along the way, an accident was staged in which a runner slipped and fell, groaning in pain. Hidden observers watched the incident, and those taking part in the study were asked about it when they reached the projection room.Participants, all of whom had a strong identification as Manchester fans, were more likely to ask the runner if he needed help when he was wearing a Manchester United shirt than when he was wearing a Liverpool shirt or an ordinary unbranded shirt.In the second study, Manchester United fans were again recruited, but when they arrived they were told that they were participating in a study about football fans in general (not Manchester United fans, specifically). They were also told that the study aimed to focus on the positive aspects of fan hood as opposed to the negative incidents and stories that usually get attention. The study questionnaires asked them about their broader interest in the game and what they shared with other fans. They then were instructed to cross campus to head to the projection room, and along the way witnessed the same staged incident and conditions described in the first study.In this case, participants were as likely to help a victim in a Manchester United shirt as they were to help someone in a Liverpool shirt. And they were more likely to help those wearing team shirts than those who were not.When people expand their notion of the "in-group" they are more likely to reach out to those in the "other camp."One noteworthy strength of this research is that it offers an analysis of actual helping behavior rather than "beliefs about" or "intentions" to act. Evidence of dramatic shifts in such behavior across deeply entrenched antagonisms（根深蒂固的敌对情绪）in response to simple changes in levels of categorization is striking.( )5.According to the 2005 British study, people tend to help strangers if _________.A .the later are in great pain and sufferingB. they two share something in commonC. they themselves can get something in returnD. the latter belong to a different group( )6.What contributes to different results of two studies?A. That each group witnessed a different accident.B. That only one group was told the purpose of the study.C .That the two group were fans of different football teams.D. That participants of the two group were form different cities.( )7.The research is worth noting in that ____________.A. it is based on behavioral experimentsB. it deals with problems all circumstancesC. it involves participants of different identitiesD. it creates new approaches to friendship-buildingCBooks, Films and PlaysThe novelist’s medium is the written word, one might almost say the printed word. Typically the novel is consumed by a silent, individual reader, who may be anywhere at the time. The paperback novel is still the cheapest, most portable and adaptable form of narrative entertainment. It is limited to a single channel of information---writing. The narrative can go, effortlessly, anywhere: into space, people’s head, palaces, prisons and pyramids, without any consideration of cost or practical possibility. In determining the shape and content of his narrative, the writer is restricted by nothing except purely artistic criteria. The novelist keeps absolute control over his text until it is published and received by the audience. He may be advised by his editor to revise his text, but if the writer refused to meet this condition no one would be surprised. It is not unknown for a well-established novelist to deliver his or her manuscript(手稿) and expect the publisher to print it exactly as written.However, not even the most well-established playwright or screenplay writer would submit a script and expect it to be performed without any rewriting. This is because plays and motion pictures are cooperative forms of narrative, using more than one channel of communication.The production of a stage play involves, as well as the words of the author, the physical presence of the actors, their voices and gestures, the “set” a nd possibly music. Although the script is the essential basis of both stage play and film, it is a basis for subsequent revision negotiated between the writer and the other creative people involved. They are given “approval” of the choice of director and actors and have the right to attend rehearsals(排演), during which period they may undertake more rewriting work. In the case of the screenplay, the writer may have little or no control over the final form of his work. Contracts for the production of plays protect the rights of authors in this respect.In film or television work, on the other hand, the screenplay writer has no contractual right tothis degree of consultation. While the script is going through its various drafts, the writer is in the driver’s s eat, although sometimes receiving criticism from the producer and the director. But once the production is under way, artistic control over the project tends to pass to the director. This is a fact overlooked by most journalistic critics of television drama, who tend(unlike film critics) to give all the credit or blame for success or failure of a production to the writer and actors, ignoring the contribution, for good or ill, of the director.( )8. Where might you find the passage?A. In a textbook.B. In a movie magazine.?C. In a travelling brochure.D. In a shopping guide.( )9. Which of these subtitles would be most appropriate?A. Why does the future look good for writers of books, plays and films?B. What do audiences want from these three forms of entertainment?C. How do these forms of media compare for their producers?D. What benefit can we get from these forms of media?( )10. Why can the novelist expect the publisher to print the manuscript exactly as written?A. Because the novelist keeps absolute control over his text.B. Because the paperback novel is most portable and adaptable.C. Because the novel is limited to a single channel of information---writing.D. Because the novelist is seldom advised by editors to revise the text.( )11. Which of the following statements is True according to the passage?A. Playwrights envy the simplicity of the novelist’s work.B. Experience in the theatre improves the work of screenplay writers.C. Screenplay writers usually have the final say in how a TV drama will turn out.D. Playwrights are frequently involved in revising their work.( )12. What can be implied from the last sentence of the passage?A. TV critics often blame the wrong people for the failure of a programme.B. The director is a determining factor in the future of a television drama.C. Few people know that the screenplay writer is often criticized by the director.D. It is urgent for the film critics to realize their mistakes.DWe all fail, all the time. We might miss a call with a client because of an emergency work meeting, or miss that meeting because another project has suddenly become urgent. And then we(or our families) get sick. and we have to shift priorities around again.These unsystematic failures are benign, though. They reflect that all of us have limited resources. There simply is not enough time, energy, or money to do everything you want to do all the time. Part of being a responsible adult is learning to make tradeoffs, balancing your conflicting goals and trying to get as much done as you have.The thing your really need to watch out for is the systematic failure .The systematic failure happens when there’s a particular goal you want to achieve, but never get to. The causes of systematic failures usually boil down to some combination of these three factors.1.Short-term pressures versus long-term goals. Most of us prefer to achieve pressing short-term goals rather than put time into long-term projects .Lots of research suggests that our brains are wired to prefer tasks that pay off in the short term rather than those whose benefit is long-term. The people who do manage to accomplish their long-term goals create regular space to makeprogress on them.2.____________ Without even realizing it. We often do what is easiest to accomplish rather than what we say is most important. Email is a great example. If you are like most people, you keep your email program open at work all day. Consequently, each new message is an invitation to drop what you are working on to check it. It feels like work and it’s much easier than finishing that 100-slide presentation. Simply shutting off email for a few hours a day can remove this source of distraction(分心的事物)form the environment.3. Working for too long. Many workplaces create to stay at the office for more and more hours, which(paradoxically) creates opportunities for systematic failures. Work is not an iron man competition where the wins. Most people have an optimal（最佳的）number of hours they can work each day. If I spend any more time at work than that, then at some point. I start doing “fake work”.The next time you run into trouble, assess whether it’s an unsystematic failure or a systematic one. When you notice a systematic failures in your life, you need to make a change in your behavior. If you don’t make a change, you will continue to fail.Finally, if you experience a lot of unsystematic failures, it might be worth rethinking the number of tasks you are taking on. Perhaps you need to offload some responsibilities onto someone else ,before you start experiencing more systematic failures.( )13.The underlined word “benign” in Paragraph 2 means “ _________ ”.A. not dangerousB. not usefulC. relevantD. troublesome( )14.who was most probably affected by the first factor?A. Andy who put his keep-fit plan aside due to a lack free timeB. Sarah who worked overtime till the next morning to finish her work ahead of time.C. Philip who missed an important appointment because he has been under the weather lately.D. Emily who kept her social networking platform on all day to receive updates about friends. ( )15.Which of the following could fill in the blank as a subtitle?A. The truth about important goals.B. Environments that are bad for our goals.C. The easiest goals that often bring us little.D. Ways to remove the source of distraction.( )16.What is the main idea of the passage?A. How to distinguish systematic failures from systematic failures.B .When you should worry about failure and when you shouldn’t.C. What to do to save yourself from constant systematic failures.D. Why assessing failures you have encountered is important.二、完形填空One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest fault. It’s like looking at the tiled (铺瓦的) ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is 1 .Once I heard a bald man said, “whenever I enter a room 2 I see is hair.” Once you’ve3 what your missing tile is, explore whether acquiring it will4 make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different5 , or forget about it and6 the tiles in your life that are not missing.We all know people who have a relatively 7 life, yet are essentially unhappy whilepeople who have suffered a great deal but 8 remain happy.The first 9 is gratitude. All happy people are 10 . Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to 11 , but it’s truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.The second secret is 12 that happiness is a byproduct (副产品) of something else. The most obvious 13 are those pursuit(追求) that give our lives purpose——anything 14 studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are 15 to experience.Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our 16 has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We 17 a spiritual faith, or a philosophy, it should 18 this truth: if you choose to find the 19 in every situation, you will be blessed, and if you choose to find the awful, you will be cursed.
