1.時(shí)態(tài)：對(duì)完型填空中的時(shí)態(tài)題的判斷，可以根據(jù)表示時(shí)間的信息詞來判斷，也可以根據(jù)上下文提供的信息來判斷。表時(shí)間的詞有：

since,

before,

after,

already,

every

since,

for

a

long

time,

yesterday,

in

1992,

now。

2.語氣：考生認(rèn)為困難的是對(duì)虛擬語氣試題的判斷。此類試題一般分兩種情況，一種情況是帶有表虛擬條件句或短句的詞語在問題句中，如without，if等，另一種需要根據(jù)上下文或邏輯關(guān)系來判斷。

3.非謂語動(dòng)詞：非謂語動(dòng)詞各自具有不同的語法功能和使用范圍。分詞作定語和表示原因、時(shí)間和伴隨狀語；不定式作定語和表示目的和結(jié)果狀語。動(dòng)名詞可以做賓語、主語、表語或介詞賓語。因此做非謂語動(dòng)詞的試題，要注意分析其在句中的語法作用，另外還要注意一些詞的固定用法，牢固掌握必須跟動(dòng)名詞的動(dòng)詞和必須跟動(dòng)詞不定式的動(dòng)詞也是很必要的。

4.替代詞：英語中替代詞很多，既可以用來替代單詞，也可以用來替代詞組、短語或句子。常見的有do,

so,

one,

ones,

yours,

theirs,

this,

that,

those,

he,

it,

they等。完型填空題借用其語篇優(yōu)勢，常設(shè)有此類題?？忌鲞@類題時(shí)，要仔細(xì)分析句子的語義關(guān)系，搞清所替代的內(nèi)容是什么。

5.詞組、習(xí)語和習(xí)慣用法：對(duì)于這一類選擇題，不能利用語法知識(shí)進(jìn)行判斷。因此平時(shí)的日積月累就十分重要。只有熟悉其意義和用法，才能準(zhǔn)確迅速地做出判斷。21.Justseveraldaysago,aviolentstormhitourcommunity.Ilookedoutofthewindowandwitnessedatreebeingabusedbythe___21___wind.Thebranchesbent,andswayed(搖擺)backandforth,thankstotheir___22___toavoidbreaking.Theleavesdesperatelystucktothebranchesbecausetheirlife___23___thetree.Thepowerfultrunk(樹干)whichheldthetreeuprightbentslightly___24___fromtheforceinthebattleto___25___itsposition.Afterthestormhadpassed,thetreegracefullyreturnedtoits___26___positionstandingtallamongthechaos(混亂).Itmanagedto___27___thestorm.Itdidn’tlookthesameasleaveshadfallenandthesoilhadloosened,butwhat___28___isthatthetreewonthefightforitslife.ForalongtimeIcouldn’tunderstandwhythistree___29___myattentionthewayitdid.Astimepassed,itbecameclearthatitwasn’tjustaboutthetreebutaboutthe___30___rootswhicharedeepintothesoilproviding___31___andnutrition.Therootsallowthetreetobeabletotakea___32___becausetheyaretheretosupportthem.___33___,thenexttimeyoucatchyourkids___34___,whenthejobisdrivingyoucrazy,whenyouareunderpaidandthe___35___istight,andwhenthestormsoflifeareblowing,gobacktoyour___36___.Lifeisfullofstorms.Theywillmakeyou___37___,makeyouswayandevenmakeyoulosesomeleavesbutthe___38___yourrootsthestrongeryoustand.Ichallengeyoutobendbutdon’tbreak.Howeverhardthewindblowsdon’tletlife___39___youintoanuncomfortableposition.Your___40___liesinyourroots.21.A.fierce

40.D【分析】這是一篇夾敘夾議文。講述了作者看到大樹遭遇強(qiáng)風(fēng)暴時(shí)，雖然樹枝搖擺彎曲，樹葉飄落，甚至根部的泥土都有些松動(dòng)，但是泥土深處的強(qiáng)勁根部，不僅給大樹輸送營養(yǎng)，還保障了大樹的穩(wěn)固性，使其在狂風(fēng)肆虐之下得以生存。作者由此聯(lián)想到人生，當(dāng)我們遇到殘酷的挑戰(zhàn)時(shí)，應(yīng)該像大樹那樣，從根部樹立堅(jiān)定的信念，和勇往直前的勇氣，堅(jiān)忍不拔，不被困難打倒?！?1題詳解】考查形容詞辨析。句意：我向窗外望去，看見一棵樹被狂風(fēng)肆虐著。A.fierce猛烈的；B.strange奇怪的；C.unusual不尋常的；D.gentle溫柔的。故選A?！?2題詳解】考查名詞詞義辨析，句意：樹枝彎曲，來回?cái)[動(dòng)，多虧了它們的柔韌性，才得以避免折斷。A.height高度；B.flexibility柔韌性；C.outline輪廓；D.weight重量。根據(jù)空前的句子Thebranchesbent,andswayedbackandforth可知描述的是樹的韌性，因此B項(xiàng)正確。故選B。【23題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞詞組辨析，句意：樹葉緊緊附在樹枝上，因?yàn)樗鼈兊纳蕾囉跇?。dependon意為“依賴于”，符合句意，因此B項(xiàng)正確。故選A?！?4題詳解】考查副詞辨析。句意：強(qiáng)大的樹干支撐著樹，使得它在保持自己位置的戰(zhàn)斗中，只是向后彎曲。backwards向后。故選C?！?5題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析，句意：強(qiáng)大的樹干支撐著樹，使得它在保持自己位置的戰(zhàn)斗中，只是向后彎曲。A.achieve實(shí)現(xiàn)；B.reach到達(dá)；C.establish建立；D.maintain保持。這里大樹在風(fēng)暴前就有自己的位置，只是在風(fēng)暴中努力保持自己的位置，故選D?！?6題詳解】考查形容詞詞義辨析，句意：風(fēng)暴過后，這棵樹又優(yōu)雅地回到了原來的位置，高高聳立在一片狼藉中。本句中用returned(回到），結(jié)合文章大意，大樹應(yīng)該是沒被風(fēng)吹到，又回到了他原來的位置，original最初的，原來的。故選C?！?7題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析，句意：它努力在風(fēng)暴中生存下來。explore探索；avoid避免；overcome追逐；survive幸存，存活，根據(jù)句意，D項(xiàng)正確。故選D。【28題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析，句意：重要的是，這棵樹贏得了這場生存之戰(zhàn)。A.differs不同；B.matters重要；C.concerns關(guān)心；D.reveals顯露。故選B?！?9題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞固定短語，句意：很長一段時(shí)間我都不明白，為什么這棵樹會(huì)以這種方式引起我的注意。catchone’sattention為固定搭配，意為＂引起某人的注意＂，故選C。【30題詳解】考查形容詞詞義辨析，句意：隨著時(shí)間的推移，原因變得很明顯了，引起我注意的不僅僅是樹本身，還包括它的根，雖然看不見，卻深深地扎根于地下，給樹提供穩(wěn)定性（使樹牢固地站立）和營養(yǎng)。unseen看不見的。故選A?！?1題詳解】考查名詞辨析。A.light光；B.surroundings環(huán)境；周圍的事物；C.sources來源；D.water水。句意：隨著時(shí)間的推移，原因變得很明顯了，引起我注意的不僅僅是樹本身，還包括它的根，雖然看不見，卻深深地扎根于地下，給樹提供水和營養(yǎng)。故選D?！?2題詳解】考查固定短語。A.stand站立；B.beating打；C.chance機(jī)會(huì)；D.turning轉(zhuǎn)向。句意：樹根允許樹能夠經(jīng)受挫折，因?yàn)橛兴鼈冊(cè)谥С炙?。takeabeating固定搭配，意為“受打擊，經(jīng)受挫折”，故選B?！?3題詳解】考查連詞辨析，空格前一句句意為：我不禁問自己，我生命中的根在有多深。后一句句意：下一次當(dāng)你發(fā)現(xiàn)你的孩子行為不端時(shí)，當(dāng)你的工作快把你逼瘋時(shí)，當(dāng)你的工資過低，你的錢又很緊張時(shí)，當(dāng)生命的風(fēng)暴肆虐時(shí)，回到你的根部?？芍昂髢删鋵儆谝蚬P(guān)系，思考過自己的根有多深，因此可以在風(fēng)暴肆虐時(shí)回到根部。Thus因此。故選C?！?4題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析，句意：當(dāng)你發(fā)現(xiàn)孩子行為不端時(shí)。A.misleading誤導(dǎo)；B.interpreting解釋；C.withdrawing撤回，撤銷；D.misbehaving行為不禮貌。故選D。【35題詳解】考查名詞詞義辨析，句意：當(dāng)你的工資過低，你的預(yù)算又很緊張時(shí)。根據(jù)上下文語境可知，budget與前面的單詞underpaid相對(duì)應(yīng)，即當(dāng)你感覺報(bào)酬不足，預(yù)算緊張時(shí)，因此A項(xiàng)正確。budget預(yù)算，經(jīng)費(fèi)。故選A?！?6題詳解】考查名詞辨析。句意：當(dāng)人生中的風(fēng)暴刮起時(shí)，那就回到你的根部吧。A.dream夢(mèng)想；B.home家；C.roots根；D.trees樹。故選C?！?7題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞辨析，句意：他們會(huì)使你搖擺，使你彎曲，使你失去一些葉子，但是你的根越深，你站得越穩(wěn)。bend彎曲；前文提到樹干被大風(fēng)刮得有點(diǎn)彎曲，這里指人生遇到的風(fēng)暴也會(huì)讓人如同大樹一樣，有點(diǎn)彎曲，但是根系越深，人便站得越穩(wěn)，因此B項(xiàng)符合語境。故選B?！?8題詳解】考查形容詞辨析。句意：但是根系越深，人便站得越穩(wěn)。A.deeper更深；B.bigger更大；C.more更多D.brighter更明亮。故選A?！?9題詳解】考查動(dòng)詞辨析?？疾楣潭ǘ陶Z，句意：無論風(fēng)暴有多么強(qiáng)烈，都不要讓生活逼迫自己處于不舒服的境地。forcesbinto固定短語，意為“強(qiáng)迫某人……”，故選B?！?0題詳解】考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：你的力量就在你的根上。courage勇氣；ambition野心，雄心；value價(jià)值；strength力量，力氣。上一段最后一句話中的＂thedeeperyourrootsthestrongeryoustand＂是對(duì)本題答案的提示，即：根系越深站得越穩(wěn)，就是說你的力量來自于你堅(jiān)實(shí)的根基，故選D?！军c(diǎn)睛】完形填空的解題技巧之一就是要根據(jù)上下文來學(xué)會(huì)“推理”出最佳選項(xiàng)。同學(xué)們要遵循“上下求索”的原則來查找信息。例如，第16小題要求判斷出人生充滿什么。該題可根據(jù)前文中提到的關(guān)于“storm”的例子，還有前面幾句話“thenexttimeyoucatchyourkidsmisbehaving,whenthejobisdrivingyoucrazy,whenyouareunderpaidandthemoneyistight,andwhenthestormsoflifeareraging,”中所提到的各類人生挫折，得出結(jié)論。20小題，上文提到＂thedeeperyourrootsthestrongeryoustand根系越深站得越穩(wěn)＂，就是說你的力量來自于你堅(jiān)實(shí)的根基，所以選用strength。三、閱讀理解22.
