高考英语完形填空限时训练极品题(15)

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。

It was full of love, laughter, anger and sadness like any family, but these things occurred 121 . The knowledge instilled (灌输) in me was 122 by watching my mother as she moved through her silent world.I loved to watch her hands, which were always 123 me things by showing me how, as she watered, weeded and dug her garden.

高中英语完形填空15题High school English classes often include cloze tests or fill-in-the-blank exercises as a way to assess students' understanding of vocabulary and reading comprehension. These tests typically present a passage of text with certain words or phrases removed, and students must select the appropriate words to complete the passage. While cloze tests may seem like a simple exercise, they can actually be quite challenging and require a nuanced understanding of language.One of the key skills tested in a cloze test is vocabulary knowledge. Students need to be familiar with a wide range of words and their meanings in order to accurately fill in the blanks. This includes not only common everyday words, but also more specialized academic and literary vocabulary. Additionally, students must be able to recognize context clues and understand how different words can be used in different grammatical structures and semantic contexts.For example, a cloze test might present a sentence like "The [BLANK] of the ancient ruins was a testament to the skill of the builders." Inthis case, the missing word could be "grandeur," "majesty," or "splendor" - all of which convey a sense of impressive and awe-inspiring size or scale. A student who has a more limited vocabulary might struggle to identify the most appropriate word to fit the context.Beyond vocabulary, cloze tests also assess reading comprehension and the ability to understand the overall meaning and flow of a text. The missing words are often carefully selected to test a student's grasp of the passage's main ideas, logical connections, and narrative or expository structure. A student who can only focus on individual words and lacks the ability to synthesize the broader meaning of the text will likely struggle to fill in the blanks accurately.For instance, a cloze test passage might discuss the life cycle of a butterfly, with gaps for words like "caterpillar," "chrysalis," and "metamorphosis." A student who understands the general concept of a butterfly's transformation would be better equipped to complete the passage than one who only knows the individual terms without grasping their interconnected significance.Cloze tests can also be used to evaluate a student's grammatical knowledge and ability to recognize proper sentence structure. The missing words may be nouns, verbs, adjectives, or other parts of speech, and the correct answer will depend on factors like verb tense,subject-verb agreement, and the flow of the surrounding text. A student who struggles with basic grammar will likely find these types of cloze test questions particularly challenging.In addition to their use in the classroom, cloze tests are also commonly seen on standardized exams, such as the SAT, ACT, and various English proficiency tests. These high-stakes assessments often include cloze test sections as a way to measure a student's overall language skills and readiness for college-level work or professional communication. Performing well on these types of tests can be crucial for students seeking to demonstrate their English language abilities to colleges, employers, or immigration authorities.Preparing for cloze tests can be a valuable exercise for high school students looking to improve their English skills. One effective strategy is to regularly practice with sample cloze test passages, paying close attention to the context clues and logical flow of the text. Students can also expand their vocabulary through targeted study and immersion in English-language media, such as books, movies, and news articles.Additionally, students should focus on developing strong reading comprehension skills, which will help them grasp the overall meaning and structure of a passage. This may involve techniques like actively engaging with the text, making predictions, and drawing connectionsbetween different parts of the passage.Grammar review and practice can also be helpful, as students needto be able to recognize and apply proper grammatical structures in order to fill in the blanks accurately. Resources like grammar textbooks, online exercises, and feedback from teachers can all be valuable in strengthening this aspect of language proficiency.Overall, cloze tests in high school English can be a challenging but important tool for assessing and developing a student's language skills. By mastering the ability to accurately complete these types of exercises, students can not only improve their performance on exams, but also enhance their overall fluency and confidence in using the English language. With dedication and practice, high school students can develop the necessary skills to excel on cloze tests and become more effective communicators in a variety of academic and professional contexts.。

For other mice, the same sight can be reason to sing.Mice will probably 21 sing their way to any concert, butresearchers in the United States have found 22 that mice do, 23 , sing.Scientists already knew that mice make ultrasonic(超声波)sounds —noises that are too high-pitched(高音的) for people to hear 24 special equipment.To find out whether mice put such sounds together in song-like 25 , the researchers recorded the sounds of 1 mice. Using computer 26 , they were able to separate the sounds into specific types of syllables(音节), and found the mice produced about 10 syllables per second. The results showed that nearly all of the mice repeated sequences(顺序) of syllables in different patterns. That’s enough to meet thedefinition of what scientists 27 song.

A representative of Free the Children gave a speech at my school, sharing, this story I will never forget. Craig Kielburger was 12 when he came across an article about a boy of his age who escaped from child labor and was murdered for speaking about his experiences. Craig was upset and took the article to school. He asked who would help him and with a group, of friends, started Free the Children.Craig traveled to countries where he saw child laborers and poverty firsthand. He also started giving speeches to people three times his age. He was even nominated(提名) for a Nobel Peace Prize and received the Nelson Mandela Human Rights Award. His organization has already helped over a million children.I could not believe a kid three years younger than me had accomplished so much. His story motivated everyone who heard it to do something about the problems of the world.That first burst of awareness faded, but a year later an organization at my school announced a meeting about social justice. Mare Kielburger, the elder brother of Free the Children's founder, came to my school to speak and for the second time I heard the story how Craig started the organization, but this time from a person who had been there since the beginning. Mare described his visits to underdeveloped countries and the influence on his life, telling us how we could make a difference. I was completely attracted.Free the Children had set up campaigns that help children get education, medical care and food. When our advisor asked if we' would like to get involved, we responded with a unanimous yes.Our group set to work realizing our goal of helping build a school by raising $6,000. It was a great challenge, but if other children had done it, so could we. I began to volunteer as a tutor at a grade school. It's tough sometimes when the children don't cooperate. But I think about all those children who can' t get an education and realize it's all worth it.Every child should get an education and Free the Children has helped me understand that. Devoted to the rights of children, it has also helped me see that I can do something to help other children. I have the power to change the world and I'm going to use it. I think when the studentsat our school see what their money has done. They will realize they can make a difference, too.41. What made Craig make up his mind to set up the organization Free the Children?A. He was inspired by a speech given at his school.B. He was greatly shocked by an article about the death of a child laborer.C. He wanted to travel round the world to help the child laborers.D. He had the same experiences as the boy mentioned in the article.42. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Both Craig and Mare came to the author's school and made wonderful speeches.B. Free the Children was started to win the Nobel Prize for Peace.C. Free the Children aims to help poor children around the world.D. Free the Children was founded by the author and the Kielburger brothers.43. What's the meaning of the underlined word "unanimous" in para.5?A. unwillingB. AbsoluteC. inconsiderateD. uncertain44. We can learn from the passage that________.A. Mare was given the Nelson Mandela Human Rights Award for his work.B. the little author's goal can never be achieved.C. grade school students are easy to get along with.D. everyone can make his efforts to help others.45. The best title for this passage is likely to be________.A. We Can Make a DifferenceB. Building a SchoolC. Helping Child LaborersD. The Kielburger BrothersBTwo hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia live some of the world's largest black bears. They are in northern Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of other wildlife. The streams, lakes, meadows(草地), mountain ridges and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for black bears have also attracted more people to the region. Open spaces are threatened by plans for housing estates and important habitats(栖息地) are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos' natural beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy(大自然保护协会) named the area one of America's "Last Great Places" .Operating out of a century-old schoolhouse in the village of Long Pond, Pennsylvania, the conservancy's Bud Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth with environmental protection. By forging partnerships with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy has been able to protect more than 14,000 acres of environmentally important land in the area.Altemose's family has fanned in the Pocono area for generations. Twoyears ago Francis worked with the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his family's land can be protected from development and the Altemoses will be better able to provide a secure financial future for their 7-year-old grandson. Cook attributes the Conservancy's success in the Poconos to having alocal presence and a commitment to working with local residents. "The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local community," Cook said. "The people who live there respect the land. They value quiet forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are eager to help with conservation effort."For more information on how you can help the Nature Conservancy protect the Poconos and the world's other "Last Great Places," please call1-888-564 6864 or visit us on the World Wide Web at . 46. The purpose in naming the Poconos as one of America's "Last Great Places" is to_____.A. gain support from the local communityB. protect it from irresponsible developmentC. make it a better home for black bearsD. provide financial security for future generations 47.

A. Financial contributions from local business leaders.B. Consideration of the interests of the local residents.C. The establishment of a wildlife protection foundation in the area.D. The setting up of a local Nature Conservancy branch in the Pocono area. 50. The passage most probably is _____. A. an official document B. a news story , C. an advertisement D. a research report CSome houses are designed to be smart. Others have smart designs. An example of the second type of house won an Award of Excellence from the American Institute of Architects.Located on the shore of Sullivan's Island off the coast of South Carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace onesmashed to pieces by Hurricane (飓风) Hugo 10 years ago. In September 1989, Hugo struck South Carolina, killing 18 people and damaging or destroying 36,000 homes in the state.Before Hugo, many new houses built along South Carolina's shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building codes wasn't strict, according to architect Ray Huff, who created. the cleverly-designed beach house. In Hugo's wake, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better—enforced codes. The new beach house on Sullivan's Island should be able to withstand a Category 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilometers per hour.At first sight, the house on Sullivan's Island looks anything but hurricane-proof. Its redwood shell makes it resemble "a large party lantern (灯笼)" at night, according to one observer. But looks can be deceiving. The house's wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it extra strength.To further protect the house from hurricane damage. Huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber(7(木头) pilings (屋基)—long, slender columns of wood anchored deep in the sand. Pilings might appear insecure, but they are strong enough to support the weight of the house. They also elevate the house above storm surges. The pilings allow the surges (波涛汹涌) to run under the house instead of running into it. "These swells of water come ashore at tremendous speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings," said Huff.Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially concealed(隐藏)by the house's ground-to-roof shell. "The shell masks the pilings so that the house doesn't look like it's standing with its pant legs pulled up," said Huff. In the event of a storm surge, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained.51. After the tragedy caused by. Hurricane Hugo, new houses built along South Carolina's shore line are required________.A. to be easily reinforcedB. to look smarter in designC. to meet stricter building standardsD. to be designed in the shape of cubes52. The award-winning beach house is quite strong because_______.A. it is strengthened by steel rodsB. it is made of redwoodC. it is in the shape of a shellD. it is built with timber and concrete53. Huff raised the house 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings in order to __________ .A. withstand peak winds of about 200 km / hrB. anchor stronger pilings deep in the sandC. break huge sea waves into smaller onesD. prevent water from rushing into the house.54. The main function of the shell is ________.A. to strengthen the pilings of the houseB. to give the house a better appearanceC. to protect the wooden frame of the houseD. to slow down the speed of the swelling water55. It can be inferred from the passage that the shell should be _____.A. fancy-lookingB. waterproofC. easily breakableD. extremely strong参考答案完形填空21-30 CBDDC DABAA答案与解析导读：这是一篇科普文章，文章讲到家对于老鼠进行研究，从中发现他们也有自己的音律表达。

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。

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。

That is the most important thing, not what I am eating.”He aims to 15 his journey by mid-July.With any luck, he’ll turn a few more heads in the process.1. A.cleverer B. older C. stranger D. simpler2.

Having been a Straight A student, I believed I could 1 tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he 2 in class.When I took the first exam of my best subject English, I was 3 to find a 77, C plus, on my test paper. I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my arguments but remained 4 . I decided to try harder, and I read the books more carefully, but got another 77 again. I 5 with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened patiently but wouldn’t change his 6 .One more test before the final exam. One more chance to improve my grade. So I redoubled my effort and, for the first time 7 the meaning of the word “thorough”. But my effort did no good and everything 8as before.The last hurdle(障碍) was the final. No matter what 9 I got, it wouldn’t cancel three C pluses. I might as well kiss the 10 goodbye.I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final, I even 11 myself to a movie. The next day I dec ided for once I’d have 12 with a test. A Week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne’s office. He 13 to be expecting me, “ If I gave you the As you 14 , you wouldn’t continue to work hard.”I stared at him 15 that his analysis and strategy(策略) were correct.I was speechless when my course grade arrived: A plus.

For fear that I would become a victim of the consumer society, I 12 hurried to a bicycle shop in my neighborhood. 13 the shopkeeper Mr. Johnson was selling me the bicycle, he said, “This is the best thing you 14 have done. Life has become hopelessly 15 . A bicycle is simple, and it brings to you 16 things: fresh air, sunshine and exercise.” I agreed. Happy as a child, I got on the bicycle and headed out onto the streets. After some time, I 17 at the other end of the town. I was 18 that this simple vehicle could let me 19 long distances in a fairly short time. But how 20 did I really go? Since I hated to be 21 , I went back to Mr. Johnson and asked him to 22 an odometer (里程表)on my bicycle. He agreed, but 23 , “An odometer without a speedometer ( 速度计）is like a 24 without a knife.” I admitted he was right and in a few minutes, the two devices (装置) were 25 to the handlebars of my bicycle. “What about a horn?” he then asked. “Look, this horn is no larger than a matchbox and has many 26 .” Attracted by these functions, I bought the horn.“You can’t leave the back part 27 ,” noted Mr. Johnson. He fixed a metal box with buttons 28 the seat, and said, “Is there anything better than this oven when you feel 29 on your way?
