完形填空议论文
近几年的高考完形填空试题中，也出现了议论文体裁的完形填空。此类文章有以下几个
特点：
1. 首句致胜，论点明确
这类文体绝大多数都把文章的首句作为主旨句，作者在这一句话中提出论点，然后在各段的首句提出分论点。 2.结构清晰，合乎逻辑。
议论型完形填空的三要素：论点、论据和论证。论点、论据形成一体，相互印证。为使
文章脉络清楚，有逻辑性，常使用一些连接词。如：on the contrary，generally，worse still，in conclusion，personally，further more，surely，obviously，besides，firstly等。
大家要做好议论文题材的完形填空最重要的是抓住作者的论点。不同的议论文论点的提出方式往往不同，大体有以下三种情况：
（1）开门见山地提出论点。有些议论文在文章的一开始就提出论点，然后再通过具体的论据去说明论点，论据有时候既有正面的论据，也有反面的论据，最后总结全文。 （2）导入式提出论点。有些议论文会先通过叙述生活中的一个具体的事情或描述生活中的现象，然后根据事情或现象所反映的问题提出自己的见解。最后再用具体的论据去说明自己的论点。
（3）最后提出论点。有些议论文一开始作者仅仅是列举生活中的现象，而不表明自己的观点，而是通过对具体现象的分析，自然得出一种结论，这种结论往往就是作者的论点。 3.方法论证，合情合理。
这类文章都是按一定的论证方法来论证的。常用的论证方法有： 归纳法(分析个别事物，达到共同点，得出结论)； 推理法(从原理出发，个别分析说明，得出结论)； 对照法(正反对照，分析说明，得出结论)； 驳论法(阐述错误观点，逐条批驳，阐明观点)。
【应试策略】 1. 通览
把握作者的观点和态度。议论文往往体现作者对某一事物的观点，而作者的观点就是文
章的论点。考生要把握作者的观点，把握作者对某一事物是褒还是贬，是赞成还是反对，而通常把握了作者的观点也就找准了文章的论点。
把握文章的开头，总结文章的结尾。议论文的篇首或结尾出现话题中心，通过首段或末
段把握文章的主题。 2. 试填
注意段与段之间的逻辑。议论文往往围绕某一个论点用不同的论据加以佐证，往往每一
段就是一个论据，而论据和论据之间又相互联系、互为补充，每一段往往就是其中一个角度或侧面。 3. 复核
通读全文，检验每条论据是否都合情合理，都能强而有力地支撑论点。
【解题技巧】
1. 重视首句，要有推断意识
完形填空一般不给出标题，但首句往往不设置空，通常是一个完整的句子，它是全文的
关键句，也是主导句。考生要从这个窗口领悟文章的有用信息，根据有用信息推断文章的大意及主题，从此找到一个突破口展开思维，准确答题。
2. 通读全文，要有作者意识
完形填空不是单项选择，它必须建立在理解文章的基础上，因此要通读全文，从语篇的
整体内容出发，根据具体语境，结合语言结构，全面考虑，把握文章的脉络，理解全文大意。在通读中，找出文章的主题，尤其是作者的观点，要有作者意识，与作者达成共鸣，把握全局，理清思路，抓住主线，按照作者的思路朝着正确的方向发展，根据特定情节，找到唯一正确的，合乎逻辑的答案。
3. 瞻前顾后，要有结构意识
做完形填空题时首先要做到＂瞻前顾后＂。完形填空题的选项一般从语法角度来看都可
以选，但必须要根据文章前后的暗示词以及行文逻辑关系来选择。其次要注意词语用法上的细微差别，结合上下文辨析词汇的内涵、外延、褒贬以及修辞色彩。还要有结构意识，根据句子结构中所需的词汇做出恰当的选择。同时，也要注意一些惯用法，并结合英美生活常识等做出选择。
4. 反复推敲，要有纠错意识
填完所有空，还要复读一遍，从语法角度入手，仔细推敲时态、语态、语气、主谓一致、
代词的格、非谓语动词的形式、形容词和副词以及名词的搭配，要有大胆的纠错意识。而且，
- 2 -
还要克服定时思维，重视不同体裁的文章提供的任何细节，准确无误地做好完形填空题。

父母与孩子的关系 292 17分钟 ★★★☆

Parents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers. Then again,
teenagers have 1 feelings about their parents, saying that it is not easy living with them. According to a recent research, the most common 2 between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks. On the one hand, parents go mad over 3 rooms, clothes thrown on the floor and their children’s refusal to help with the 4 . On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for 5 the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.
The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents
have different 6 to these problems. However, some approaches are more 7 than others. For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but 8 clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children’s 9 . On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the 10 of their actions can do better. For example, when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator, they are forced to 11 their actions.
Psychologists say that 12 is the most important thing in parent-child
relationships. Parents should 13 to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. Parents may 14 their children when they are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space. Communication is a two-way process. It is only by listening to and 15 each other that problems between parents and children can be settled. 1. A. natural 2. A. interest 3. A. noisy

【文章大意】这是一篇具有生活哲理的短文。并非每颗种子都能长成大树,大多数种子在成长过程中没有成才就被毁坏。人的梦想也是这样，梦想的种子也不会自动生长，需要人们精心呵护，但只要你不断地播种梦想，经过多次尝试，不断地吸取经验教训，获得新知，最终就会成功。
1.A 根据第一句话＂我手里有个苹果籽，希望有朝一日它能长成一棵美丽的大苹果树——树上能结成千上万个苹 果＂ 和此句后边的部分＂每个又能长成新的苹果树＂得知，应选A。tree＂树＂；apple＂苹果＂；leaf＂叶 子＂；seed＂种子＂。
2.B 此空后边是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词为＂a new tree＂，从句缺少一个引导词作定语从句的主语。
what
只能引导名词性从句；而whose只能作定语，表示所属关系；
that不能引导非限制性定语从句，故
选B。
3.C 根据上下文得知，种子长大成树，树结果；果有种子，种子又长成树，如此反复，无穷
尽，那么整个世界都会充满了苹果树。故选C。country＂国家，乡村＂；mountain＂高山＂；world＂世界＂；village＂村庄＂。

4.A B项only a little修饰不可数名词，而此句中of 后面是these seeds，故排除；C项
many虽然用来修饰可数名词复数形式，但表示＂许多＂，而后一句中的＂Most never...＂说明所填词应是most的反义词，故排除；D项
more为much和many的
比较级，此处没有比较的对象，故排除。综上所述，A项符合题意。only a few 指＂只有极少数的＂。
9. B and表示并列关系，or表示选择关系，but 表示转折关系，so表示因果关系。在此句
中，
前后两分句之间存在转折关系，故选B。
10.C 根据句意可知，我们的美好的想法之所以产生不久就破灭，是因为我们该＂保护＂的时候没有保护它
们。故选C。carry＂搬运，携带＂；water＂给……浇水＂；protect＂保
护，防护＂；enjoy＂欣赏＂。
11.B 根据最后一段第一句话可知，此处应填dreams，表示然后有一天，我们想知道我们的梦
想怎么了。故选B。hope＂希望＂，dream＂梦想，理想＂；wish＂愿望，祝福＂；imagination＂想象＂。
12.C 根据语境可知，此处表示有朝一日我们会问:为什么我们的梦想没有实现呢?故C。come off＂成功，
从……掉下＂；come out ＂出现，开花＂；come true＂实现＂；come across ＂(偶然)遇见，碰见＂。

13.A 此处表示梦想的种子不会自动生长，故选A。automatically＂自动地＂；freely＂自由自在
地＂；completely＂完全地，彻底地＂；naturally＂自然地＂。
14. D spend，cost，take，pay都有＂花费＂之意。pay 指＂花费＂时，主语为人，通常后跟
for，构成pay for
＂为……付钱＂；spend(money)on sth./doing sth.，主语也为人；take，cost主语都是物或it，二者的宾语通常是人，指＂某物花了某人多少钱/时间等＂。本句中take与tries构成词组，作＂进行尝试＂讲，故选D。
15.B四个选项都可与on连用，但意义不同。insist on＂坚决要求＂；keep on＂继续＂；put
on＂穿上，戴上，上演＂；take on＂雇用，呈现＂。此处表示如果你不断播种理想的种子，故选B。
