2016中考英语:短文填空题(12选10)答题指导与练习一、短文填空题型说明短文填空也叫综合填空,其特点是将一篇短文中的若干个词抽出后,要求考生根据短文的意思,在每个空格中填上一个词,使短文意思完整正确。
它是测试同学们理解能力及对词汇、语法和习惯用法等的掌握情况的一种形式。
这是中考中一个比较难的项目。
其原因是考点不明确:凡涉及英文的理解、词汇、语法和习惯用法的都可以考。
内容更是包罗万象:天文地理、历史人文、科技发展、旅游广告等。
要求同学们在读通、读懂的基础上,填出符合内容和语法的词或词组。
凡是课文中学到的词汇和语法都是考试的范围,各种介词、副词和习惯用法也会经常考到。
尤其对于长句子,特别要注意其结构,要精确地分析句子成分。
在做综合填空时,要养成快速阅读全文的习惯。
句子读得越快越长,理解的精度就越高。
根据其难度的不同又分为选词填空题、限词填空题和自由填空题。
二、短文填空解题思路1. 跳过空格,通读短文,了解大意。
解题时先跳过空格,通读完形填空的短文,了解全篇的内容和要旨。
要重视首句,善于以首句的时态、语气为立足点,理清文脉,推测全文时态、主题及大意。
2. 复读短文,确定语义,判断词形。
把握短文大意后再认真复读短文,利用上下文的语境,结合所学过的知识,先确定空格处所需词语的意义,再根据空格在句子中的位置,判断其在句中充当的成分,从而确定所填词的词性,再依据词语搭配和语法规则,判断所填的词的正确形式。
3. 三读短文,上下参照,验证答案。
在短文的空白处分别填上一个词后,将完成的短文再细读一遍,上下参照,连贯思考。
可从上、下文内容是否协调一致、顺理成章,语法结构是否正确无误等进行综合验证,凡有疑问必须重新推敲考虑。
三、做短文填空题的注意之处1. 语义完整、适用是做好填词的前提,要从全文的内容出发,前后上下联系起来考虑,避免“只见树木,不见森林”的错误。
2. 要善于从文中同样结构或类似结构中寻找线索,从中得到提示和启发,帮助确定应填词的词性和词形,这样可避免想当然地随意乱填。
根据短文内容,从方框中选择适当的单词并用其正确形式填空,使短文内容完整(每个词只能用一次,有两个多余词)。

1When I was a teenager,my family was very poor. What I ate, wore and used were always the 1 in my class. I felt sorry about my life. I kept 2 in class and I didn't study hard. The 3 of inferiority(低人一等)was with me all the time and I even wanted to 4 my life.I went to my mother's workplace to see her for the last time. She was mending a bike there. Most of the workers were men. My mother was one of the two 5 workers. In the back of the shop I found a pair of tennis rackets and a box of cucumber slices. I asked 6 woman about the tennis rackets, and she told me, your mother usually asks me to play tennis with her. She wants to keep slim. I asked my mother 7 she kept some cucumber slices. She said that she used 8 to clean her face and make her look younger and more beautiful.I couldn't say a word. How optimistic my mother was. Although life was 9 , she never thought of 10 up. I sat for a while and then went back to school. I studied harder and went to college two years later.About three years ago I felt very lonely. I didn't like my classmates, my parents 1 anyone else. My classmates didn't want to talk with me and my parents were always saying that. Other kids were better than me. I thought I was the 2 unlucky person in the world.One day I had a big fight with one of my classmates. I was so angry 3 I hit him in the face. Just at that moment, a boy stood up and 4 the fight. He was the monitor of our class. After that, he often helped me and we became good 5 . Whenever I got angry or sad, he would help 6 to cool down. My life began to change because of the boy, my best friend. We spend a lot of interesting days together. As 7 goes by, I have become happier with people and things. And it 8 that people around me have changed too. My parents don't shout at me 9 more, and my classmates become friendly to me.But now I can't see my best friend because he is seriously ill and is staying in hospital. How I miss the days when we 10 together. I hope he will be all right and come back to school soon.Reading newspapers has become an important part of everyday life. I 1 to read newspapers at the age of four.I'm so busy that I can't read all the news. So we just take a quick look at the 2 page. At other times, we may be in such a hurry that we often have a few 3 to look at the names of the passages.In the world newspapers can 4 everywhere. Some newspapers are published once a 4 , but most of the papers are published once a day with many pages. You know differentpeople enjoy 6 different newspapers. Some like world news and 7 prefer short stories. They only choose 8 they like.Today, newspapers in English have the 9 number of readers in the world. The English language is so popular that 10 Chinese students are reading English newspapers such as China daily or 21st century. They bring more and more information together with the Internet.If you don't use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak; when you start using them again, they will gradually become 1 again. Everybody 2 this. Yet many 3 do not seem to know that it is the same with memory. When someone says that he 4 a good memory, he 5 means that he doesn't give it enough chance to become stronger.If a friend says that his arms and legs 6 weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his 7 are to blame, and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found some people can't read or write, 8 they usually have better memories. This is 9 they cannot read or write and they have to remember things they can't write them down in a little notebook. They must remember dates, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the 10 time being exercised.So if you want a good memory, learn from these people; practice remembering.Can animals be made to work for people? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a 1 of simple jobs instead of people. They say that at a circus(杂技场), for example we may 2 elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen 3 on the TV or in a film. If you watch 4 you may find that the trailer always gives the animals some sugar or a piece of fruit 5 a reward. The scientists say that many 6 animals may be trained to do 7 simple things if they know they will get a reward for 8 that.Of course, as we know, dogs can be trained 9 a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of 10 when an enemy comes near. And also, it may be possible to train animals to work in families or factories.Let me tell you a story. A good friend of 1 lives with six hundred animals on an island. Ever since he 2 school, he has travelled all over the world looking for animals for 3 own zoo.He writes books about his travels and about his wonderful 4 . The money for his books helps him to 5 for all the animal food. My friend told me 6 when he waslooking for water last week. (There is not enough water on the island though there is a lot all around it), he 7 oil. He needs money for his travels and for his zoo, and a little oil would buy enough water for a long time, but he knows that if he tells 8 else about it. It will be the end of his zoo and his life's work. So I think he will not tell anybody 9 you and me about what he found, because oil and water can’t be put together. Oil you may bring 10 trouble to his animals than not having enough water. Do you think so?7Time spent in a bookshop can be enjoyable. If you go to a good 1 , no assistant will come near to you and say, “Can I help you?” You needn't buy 2 you don't want. You may try to find out where the book you want 3 . But if you want, the assistant will lead you there and then he will go 4 . It seems that he is not interested in 5 any books at all.There is a story which tells us about a good shop.

One day, however, he couldn't find the book from its 9 place and was leaving when he saw an assistant signing to him. To 10 surprise, the assistant pointed to the book in a corner, “I put it there so as not to be sold out.” said the assistant. Then he let the student go on with his reading.When I was walking down the street one day, I saw a small 1 on the ground. I picked it up and opened it to see whether I could find out the 2 name. There was nothing inside it except some dollars and a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old. I put the photo 3 and took the bag to the police station. Before I left, the policeman 4 down my name and my address. He thought the owner might want to thank 5 .That evening I went to have dinner 6 my aunt and uncle. They had also asked a young woman 7 dinner with us. Her face was familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen 8 . During our talk, the young woman happened to say that she had lost her bag that afternoon. All at once I remembered where I had seen her. She was the young girl in the photo though she looked now much 9 than the girl in the picture. She was very surprised, of course when I told her about the bag. After dinner, we went to the police station and got back her bag. The policeman 10 to me. It's a wonderful thing. You found not only the bag but also the owner of the bag.Tom is a very busy man.

At night, he collects the post from the boat and delivers it to all the houses on the island. He also delivers(递送)the 6 to the island's only pub. Then he 7 Mary in the school. He says: “Mary likes being busy, too. We never have 8 and we don't like watching TV. In the evening, Mary makes supper 9 I do the accounts(账目). At ten 10 have a glass of wine and then we go to bed. Perhaps our life isn't very exciting, but we like it.Only mother love is true love.
