2017年徐州市中考英語總復(fù)習(xí)專題練習(xí)?完型填空答題技巧完形填空題型全面考查學(xué)生綜合運(yùn)用所學(xué)語言知識的能力。要求學(xué)生不但要掌握詞匯知識、習(xí)慣用語、語法知識和句子結(jié)構(gòu)，而且要有一定的語篇理解能力、邏輯思維能力和語感。要做好完形填空，應(yīng)盡可能掌握以下解題步驟：.快速通讀全文，掌握大意。先將整篇文章通讀一遍，初步掌握文章大意、中心思想及作者的觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度等。首句一般是一個完整的、不設(shè)空的句子。它能幫助考生熟悉文章的背景、主題或文體，是一個理想的突破口。另外，考生可以通過“跳讀”和“邊讀邊猜”等技巧整體理解全文，力求對文章的結(jié)構(gòu)、主要情節(jié)、因果關(guān)系等有比較完整的了解。.填出固定搭配和習(xí)慣用法。依靠平時積累的詞、詞組、單詞搭配及語法等知識，在通讀全文的基礎(chǔ)上，將那些固定搭配和習(xí)慣書法選出來。這樣能幫助考生更好地理解全文的內(nèi)容，找出準(zhǔn)確的信息詞，降低原文的難度，為第三步的猜測做準(zhǔn)備。.細(xì)讀并進(jìn)行邏輯思維判斷。從全文的大意出發(fā)，仔細(xì)閱讀文章并進(jìn)行邏輯思維判斷，進(jìn)一步推敲自己的選擇是否恰當(dāng)，語法結(jié)構(gòu)是否正確，邏輯推理是否合理。對沒有把握的題可以用排除法進(jìn)行猜測，當(dāng)遇到有一定難度的題時，可以先跳過去，然后再回來考慮。.復(fù)讀全文及驗(yàn)證答案。再次通讀全文，看其內(nèi)容是否連貫、流暢、清晰、完整，人稱、時態(tài)、結(jié)構(gòu)等有沒有問題。值得注意的是，進(jìn)行改動時要謹(jǐn)慎，不要輕易懷疑自己的第一答案。完形填空（一）"SesameStreet"isaTVprogrammeforchildren.ItfirstappearedinNewYork1 1969.Itiscalled"thelongeststreetintheworld".That'sbecausetheTVprogrammebythatnamecannowbeseeninso2partsoftheworld.IntheUSoversixmillionchildrenwatchtheprogrammeregularly.The3includemorethanhalfthenation'spre-school（學(xué)齡前）children.Parentslovetheprogramme.Manyteachersalsoconsideritagreathelp,4someeducatorsareagainstcertainthingsinit.Testsshowchildrenfromdifferent5havebenefited（收益）fromwatchingtheprogramme.Thosewhowatchitfivetimes.6 weeklearnmorethanthosewhowatchitonceinawhile.IntheUStheprogrammeisshownat7hourssothatmorechildrencanwatchit.Theprogrammesall 8 songs,stories,jokesandpicturestohelpchildrenunderstandnumbers,lettersandhumanrelationship.Buttherearesomedifferences.9 ,theprogrammemadeinMexicoCity10moretimetoteachingwholewordsthantoteachinglettersonebyone.Whyis"SesameStreet"moresuccessfulthanotherchildren'sshows?There11manyreasons--thegoodeducationofitsproducers,thesupport12thegovernmentandbusinesses,andtheskillfuluseofmanyTVtricks.Also13watchitalongwiththeirchildren.Thisispartlybecausefamousadultstarsoftenappearonit.Butthebestreasonmaybethatitmakeseverychild14abletolearn.Childrenfindthemselveslearning,andtheywanttolearn15（ ）1.A.at B.onC.in D.since（ ）2.A.few B.many
