2010年高考英语二轮复习完形填空专项训练(二)(答案及解析)Passage 12Once in a blue moon there is one on New Year's Eve. Revelers ringing in 2010 will be treated to a so-called blue moon. According to popular definition, a blue moon is the second full moon in a month. But don't 1 it to be blue - the name has nothing to 2 the color of our closest celestial(天体)neighbor.A full moon 3 on December 2. It will appear again on Thursday in time for the New Year's countdown."If you're in Times Square, you'll see the 4 moon right above you. It's going to be that brilliant," said Jack Horkheimer, director emeritus of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium and host of a weekly astronomy TV show.The New Year's Eve blue moon will be 5 in the United States, Canada, Europe, South America and Africa. For partygoers in Australia and Asia, the full moon does not show up 6 New Year's Day, making January a blue moon month for them.However, the Eastern Hemisphere can celebrate with a partial lunar eclipse(月蚀)on New Year's Eve when 7 of the moon enters the Earth's shadow. The 8 will not be visible in the Americas.A full moon occurs 9 29.5 days, and most years have 12. 10 , an extra full moon in a month - a blue moon - occurs every 2.5 years. The 11 time there was a lunar double take was in May 2007. New Year's Eve blue moons are rarer, occurring every 19 years. The last time was in 1990; the next one won't 12 again until 2028.Blue moons have no astronomical 13 , said Greg Laughlin, an astronomer at the University of California, Santa Cruz."`Blue moon' is just a 14 in the same sense as a `hunter's moon' or a `harvest moon,'" Laughlin said in an e-mail.The popular definition of blue moon 15 after a writer for Sky & Telescope magazine in 1946 misunderstood the Maine Farmer's Calendar and marked a blue moon as the second full moon in a month. In fact, the calendar 16 a blue moon as the third full moon in a season with four full moons, not the usual three.Though Sky & Telescope corrected the 17 decades later, the definition caught on. For purists(语言纯正癖者), however, this New Year's Eve full moon doesn't even qualify as a 18 moon. It's just the first full moon of the winter season.In a tongue-in-cheek essay 19 on the magazine's Web site this week, senior contributing editor Kelly Beatty wrote: "If skies are clear when I'm 20 celebrating, I'll take a peek(眯着眼睛看)at that brilliant orb(天体)as it rises over the Boston skyline to see if it's an icy shade of blue. Or maybe I'll just howl."( ) 1. A. wish B. wait C. hope D. expect( ) 2. A. deal with B. do with C. develop with D. form into( ) 3. A. occurred B. came C. ran D. went( ) 4.

2010年高考英语(湖南卷)完形填空(二)解析完形填空(二)是2010年高考英语(湖南卷)中出现的新题型。
这是一道主观填空题,它要求考生根据上下文,在8个空格处各填入一个适当的单词,无备选答案或是其它任何形式的提示。
在平时的练习及测试中,学生的得分普遍较低。
笔者在此就如何应对这一新题型做几点简要分析,以期能帮助考生备战高考。
一、了解命题形式知己知彼,方能百战不殆。
考生务必应明确该题型的考查目的所在——在语境中考查对语法知识的运用能力以及对语篇的整体把握能力。
文章为约150个词的短文,有8个空格,每空1.5分,总分12分。
所填单词多为连词、冠词、介词、代词、形容词和副词等。
与完形填空(一)相比,它更侧重于考查英语词汇在篇章中的交际功能,对考生提出了更高的要求。
二、加强基本功训练这里所说的“基本功”包括对词汇、习语和语法的掌握。
考生必须熟练掌握高中教材中所要求记忆的单词、短语、习语、句型以及语法基础知识。
考生平时要注重多背句子,多读文章,以不断扩大词汇量,培养语感。
丰富的词汇加上正确分析句子结构的能力可以更好地帮助考生把握文章的主旨大意,从而进行严密的逻辑思维,确定单词,顺利地完成句子填空。
三、掌握基本的解题策略在解答这类题时,考生可以用“三步一回头”的方法来解题,即一看,二定,三变,四回头。
一看:看全文。
该题型是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识和词汇,因此考生在解题前应快速浏览短文,把握全文大意。
这一步非常重要,它有助于考生理清文章主线和上下文之间的逻辑关系,把握文章的脉络,为解题作好必要的准备。
二定:定词类。
在理解全文的基础上,根据先易后难的原则,分析句子结构以确定该填哪类词。
所填词多为连词(包括主从复合句和并列复合句的连词)、冠词、介词、代词(人称代词、物主代词、反身代词、不定代词等)、形容词和副词(包括比较级和最高级)。
例如:句子缺主语或宾语,空格处需填代词或名词;几个单词或短语间有空格,可能需填连词;若句子完整,很可能是缺少状语,则需填副词;句子缺少表语、定语或补语,则或许应填形容词。
