英语完形填空突破（三）——议论文.doc

完形填空突破(三) ——议论文 1．议论型完形填空的特点 (1)议论形式的完形填空一般是直接提出论点,通过论据论证,最后,作者提出自己的看法或提出另一个话题供大家讨论。 →分析问题→解决问题的过程。 (3)英语议论文不仅需要说明自己的观点,而且还要让读者接受自己的观点,因此,在词语表达上除了客观之外,还比较注重委婉。常用虚拟语气、让步状语从句和情态动词can,could,may,might,would,should等。为了辩证推理的条理性和逻辑性,往往较多地使用since,now that,therefore,in that case,because,so,but,however等过渡词和连接词。 2．议论型完形填空的备考策略 (1)遵循“首句”原则 对于议论文形式的完形填空,在掌握全文主旨的情况下,抓好每段的首句是做好试题的基本原则之一。有一项调查结果表明,英语议论文有60%～90%的主旨句在文章的首句。抓住了每段的主旨句也就“牵住了牛鼻子”,再理解文意也就不难了。 (2)理清论点、论据、结论 议论型完形填空与记叙型完形填空相比,议论型完形填空稍微难做。一般的记叙文是按时间顺序进行描述的,我们只要把握事件发生、发展的过程,就能将情景掌握好。然而议论文形式的完形填空就不这么简单了,如果我们对哪是论点、哪是论据、哪是结论都不清楚,只是莽撞地选择答案,其结果可想而知。所以理清论点、论据和结论是做好议论型完形填空的关键。 (3)“三论”结合验证答案 一般来说,能说明论据主要内容的答案可以在论点里得到印证,而论点里的某些答案也可以与论据有机地结合起来,使论点、论据形成相辅相成的关系,因而整个文章上下一致。如果我们所选的答案前后矛盾,论据与论点相悖,最后的结论与论点相矛盾,那就说明我们对于文章的把握欠条理和系统,我们就要重新回过头来理顺文章的各个部分,直到清楚为止,然后再依据自己对全文的掌握及各部分的逻辑关系选出答案。 1 (2010·沈阳一次月考) In our life,we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the ones who’d lived those years with us.In fact,we don’t have to wait for1 to thank the ones closest to us—the ones so easily 2 .If I have learned anything about giving thanks,it is this：Give it now！ your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere,act on it.Saying thanks is such an easy way to 4 the world’s happiness. Saying thanks not only 5 someone else’s world,but brightens yours.If you’re feeling 6 ,unloved or unappreciated,try reaching out to others.It may be just the 7 you need. Of course,there are times when you can’t express gratitude 8 .In that case don’t let embarrassment sink you into silence—speak up the first time you have the chance. Once a young minister,Mark Brian,was sent to a 9 town of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia.The Indians,he had been told,did not have a 10 for thankyou.But Brian soon found that these people had 11 generosity.Instead of saying thanks,it is their custom to 12 every favor with a favor of their own,and every kindness with an equal or superior 13 .They do their thanks.
