上海初三中考英语首字母填空专项练习一、Firefighters or firemen play an important role in our daily life.In some places, firefighters use watchtowers to look for smoke and fires,although they get a fire report by telephone.A high tower is still very u67for watching and guarding a place. Fire fighters also make it a placefor practice.They learn how to p68out fires from burning buildings.They try to c69 up the outside of the tower as fast as possible. They carry water hoses up to the fire. They practisecarrying imaginable victims down f70high ladders.There are reasons that firefighters are called for help. Maybe a building or a forest is o71fire.A train accident happens and people are t72inside.Still,people need to be rescued from floods or an earthquake.Whenever there is an emergency situation,they can be seen f73 there.Being a fire fighter needs a lot of t74. In the first place, firefighters should know how to educate the community（社区） by visiting schools, community centres and people in their ownhomes to p75 fire and accidents from starting. They have to learn how to deal with differentdangerous situations. Above all, it?s necessary for firefighters to exercise every day to be h76 and strong.二、Man has a big brain.

They cannot think l77us because they have no nguage is a wonderful thing.Man has been a78to build a modern world because he has language. Every child can speak his own language very w79when he is four or five, b80no animals learn to speak.How do children learn it? Scientists don?t really know w81happens inside our body whenwe speak. They only know that man can speak because he has a brain.三、Our dog, Rex, used to sit outside our front gate and bark. Every time he wanted to come into thegarden he would bark u72someone opened the gate.

上海市中考英语首字母填空练习首字母填空类短文题是近几年各省、市中考题经常采用的题型之一，这种题难度相对较大，考生失分现象很严重。

主观型首字母填空也称为限制型完形填空。

它的特点是将一篇文章中若干个词“掏空”，留下该词的首字母，它既作为提示又作为限制，让我们根据短文的意思把单词拼写完整，使文章连贯。

学生们在通读全文、掌握大意的前提下，采用先易后难，再逐项填空的应试策略。

做题时要通过字里行间来捕捉信息，既要理清逻辑，又要综合考虑，最后通过复读全文来消除疏漏。

给首字母填空类短文的阅读题属于能力测试的范畴，它考查的范围极广，可以是英语知识的方方面面，还可能涉及其它学科。

它要求考生在充分理解短文的基础上将单词拼写出来，并且单词形式合理，符合语法规范，符合短文需要。

下面就讲一讲做这类题的方法与技巧：1. 通读短文知大意，看整体全面了解与阅读理解题和其它类型的完形填空一样，首先要通读短文，了解文章的大意。

每篇短文段落之间必然承上启下、前呼后应。

因此通读全文时要一气呵成，只要能了解短文的大意即可，细节不理解可以跳过。

因此，在解题之前通读一遍短文，目的是对文章有个全面的了解，弄清其中心思想和大意。

2. 复读短文抓信息，前后照应巧猜词在了解文章大意的前提之下再次通读短文，目的是对短文有更进一步的了解。

在阅读时要特别注意一篇文章的开头（一般不设空）和结尾，它们能提供主要的信息，帮助了解全文所描述的事件或文章的中心思想。

在阅读过程中，要注意上、下文的关系，这对于把握文章的整体意义大有用处。

另外，要学会跳读，即对不理解的地方采用暂时回避的方式，待真正理解全文之后再找解决的方法。

有些短文填空题，有时出现约3%~5% 的生词是很正常的，这就要求学生根据构词知识或上、下文的意思加以猜测，来确定它的词义。

3. 反复推敲多分析，慎重答题讲技巧再次通读短文，对留空的句子进行全面的分析，看它在全文中所处的位置、作用和意义。

这一遍阅读要求是精心阅读，要留心找出关键词、短语或句子，还要结合所给首字母的提示，进行填写，并注意单词的正确形式。
