1.【答案】A
【解析】根据下一句及随后的内容,作者讲的是怎样成为动物爱好者的(从小就喜欢动物),应当选择A.how。2.【答案】C
【解析】in the first place是固定短语,意思是“首先”。此句意思是:别人经常问到的问题之一,是当初我是如何爱上动物的。3.【答案】A
【解析】这句话的意思是:作者在呀呀学语之时,最早发清楚的音是“zoo”(动物园),而不是“妈妈”,“爸爸”,因此,应选clarity“清晰”。填入其他选项emotion (感情),sentiment(多愁善感),affection(友爱)不合逻辑。4.【答案】B
【解析】but在此处连接另一个句子(it was the word“zoo”,“it was”被省略),表示转折,意为“而是”,Except, except for, but for的用法接近,表示“除了??”。例如:
We go there every day except Sunday.
He answered all the questions except for the last one.
For a year the dam remained complete but for the generators.从意思上,逻辑上,都应当选but。5.【答案】D
【解析】根据后面的over and over again,应选“repeat”6.【答案】C
【解析】小孩想去动物园,便不停地发出尖叫声,故选“voice”。A shrill voice与scream的意思接近。volume(音量);
noise(噪音);
pitch(音调)均不合要求。7.【答案】B
【解析】shut sb.up是指让某人住口,为了让孩子停止尖叫,只好带他去动物园。8.【答案】A
【解析】根据后面主句的时态,此处只能用一般过去时。9.【答案】C
【解析】a great many后直接跟可数名词的复数形式;

只有a great /large number of后可以跟可数名词的复数形式。例如:
I read a great many English books.
A large amount of money is spent on tobacco every year.A great number of civilians were murdered in cold blood.10.【答案】D
【解析】living后必须接介词in,意为“居住”;
cultivating耕种;
reclaiming开垦;
只有exploring有探察的意思。11.【答案】C
【解析】add to相当于increase,增加。其余选项后面都不接to。12.【答案】A
【解析】later on为固定短语,“后来”。13.【答案】D
【解析】attendant仆人;
keeper可理解为“饲养员”,但是a student keeper容易被误解为“收留学生的人”;
aide有“助手”之义。作者一边上学,一边在动物园里打工,只能当
助手。
14.【答案】D
【解析】which在此引导定语从句,修饰前面列出的动物。15.【答案】D
【解析】因为钱是在动物园打工挣的,选successfully更能体现其含义。16.【答案】D
【解析】finance my first trip意为“支付我的旅行费用”;
pay后应接介词for;
其他选项的意思相差甚远。17.【答案】B
【解析】此句为现在完成进行时态,选regularly比较贴切。18.【答案】D
【解析】此句是由though引导的让步状语从句,应与主句意思相对立。选项中,sorrows和disappointments与主句的appeal to相对立,但sorrows的分量太重。19.【答案】C
【解析】appeal to为成语,意思是“吸引”。20.【答案】B
【解析】excursion短途旅行;
journey(从一地到另一地的)长距离,具体的旅途;

篇三:大学英语四级完形填空解题技巧
第五讲 大学英语四级完形填空解题技巧
完型填空文章大多是完整的小文章,通常情况下,完型这一题型的解题特点即通过已知的信息来推断未知的信息。相比较以前,完型填空的阅读量加大了。文章从以前的250词增加到现在的300词。
四级完形填空主要是测试考生综合运用语言的能力,即三个方面的阅读理解能力:1、对篇章的理解能力;
2、使用词汇和语法结构的能力;
3 上下文语篇的逻辑推理能力。
1. 完型填空题测试点
完型填空题测试点主要在语法、词法、理解、综合、背景知识几方面。具体讲:
语法题包括词序、结构词(连词、介词的搭配)、动词词形(时态、语态、语气、动名词、不定式、分词)、不定代词的用法、比较级的使用。这类题的选择一般在句子里就可做出正确判断。词汇题一般是实义词,包括名((词组)、形容词、副词等,不仅包括它们的同义词、近义词,而且还包括词的搭配、习惯用法。选择时要根据上下文,甚至在通篇理解的基础上, 往往不能根据一句话做出准确的选择,要防止“见树不见林”的现象。背景知识题主要是考查读者的常识。有时文章中提供的信息并不够,还需要与读者头脑中储存的一般知识信息结合起来考虑,最后做出符合常识的最佳选择。当然,试题的设计者应尽量避免这类题的出现,因为它已超出了语言考查的范围。综合题也占一定的比例,特别是在近几年中,这种题的出现加大了试题的难度,它往往在一道题中对词汇和语法同时进行了考查。
2.做完型填空试题的一般方法、步骤
步骤一、细读首句、启示全文
完型填空所选短文一般无标题,但首句通常不设空格,因此它往往是了解文章全貌的“窗口”;
因此可判断文章体裁,推测文章大意,对我们理解全文有重要的启示作用。
步骤二、通读全文,掌握大意
先要稳下心来,“硬着头皮”把短文从头到尾快速阅读一遍,以从整体上感知全文,掌握大意。跳过空格、不看选项、快速阅读,困难肯定是有的,但要注意文中的暗示,努力找出关键词,进而理解全文。要舍得时间通览全文(其实有些固定搭配所造成的空格不需选项都能填空)。在阅读过程中,也许有些答案会在脑海中浮现,这时最好不要急于动笔,先读完。因为有些空白处,从单一的句子本身来看是难以确定答案的。
步骤三、初选答案,瞻前顾后,先易后难
瞻前顾后即前后观察,对空格前后句子作深入分析,确定空格在句中的意思。如果是语法问题,不仅要考虑时态、语态,还要考虑整个词法、句法。如果是语义问题,要从上下文分析,依据短文自身完整的语言环境进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。先易后难就是首先选出那些只根据上下文就能确定的、直接的、明显的答案,诸如固定词组、常见句型等。这就增强了信心,减轻了心理压力,以便集中精力解决难度较大的选项。瞻前顾后,不要忘记首尾照应,首句之重要大家已注意,同时不要忽视尾句的画龙点睛的作用。另外要牢记文章的中心思想,每个空白处的含义与前后句的意思要联系起来理解。文章最前面的空格提出的问题很有可能要到文章的末尾才能找到答案。
1
总的来说,出题人有以下六种出题思路。
(一)词义与词形的辨析。选项与选项之间构成同义词、反义词、形近词的关系。有时出题者也借助选项,考察考生对某些单词词义的精确理解。举例:
71.A) similar B) various C) distant D) famous
译文:地理学家比较和对照地球上的什么地方。
出题者精心只为考察compare和contrast的精确含义。compare意为to exam for similarities and differences, contrast意为to compare in order to show differences。综合两个词的含义,应为“找出其相似之处与不同之处”。B)various“各种各样”为正确。
(二)逻辑关系。所填空格的,与上下文构成指代、列举、因果、比较、对比、让步、 补充、递进等逻辑关系。
The foreign research scholar usually isolates himself in the laboratory as a means of ds is to be fitted into a highly organized university system…
72. A) otherwise B) moreover C) however D) also
根据上下文,空格前的意思为“外籍研究学者通常把自己隔离在实验室里作为一种保护的手段”。空格后为“他需要融入的是高度的组织化的大学系统”。前者是一种孤离的状态“isolate”,而后者都是一种组织化的系统“befitted to a higlyorganizeduniversity”,从逻辑的角度而言,前后已然成为对立、矛盾的关系。所以答案为表示对比(转折)关系的连词however.
(三)结构识别。这里讲到的结构,是指英文中表示句子结构的固定词组,如not only…but also…,as well as,some…the others…等。
(四)固定搭配。这里的固定搭配,是指动词与名词之间的搭配。如:同样是“利用……”, 却有不同的搭配take advantage of sth. /make use of sth.
(五)动词的用法。考生应从动词的时态、语态(被动语态和主动语态)以及非谓语动词(不定式、动名词、现在分词、过去分词)几个角度逐一考虑。
(六)介词的用法。介词的用法中多考察介词与名词、介词与形容词及及介词与动词的搭配和用法。
除了按照以上六种思路从正面逐一解题外,考生还可以灵活多变地从反面入手,利用排除法获得正确答案。在四级考试的完形填空部分,利用一种叫“同性元素排除法”的方法能够快速地缩小可选范围,找到正确答案。例如:
“In the United States professors have many other duties,the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited.”
86. A) but B) except C) with D) besides
87. A) However B) Therefore C) Furthermore D) Nevertheless
2
在完形填空中,所谓的同性元素是指具有相同的含义,同样的语法功能以及一致用法的两个或多个选项,只要具备以上几个条件,那它们相互之间就构成了同性元素。其实,同性元素的出现,是出题者黔驴技穷的表现,是为了凑足四个选项不得已而为之的。分析以上两题选项,很明显,86题中,A与B互为同性元素,意思与语法功用一模一样,均表示“除了…”(不包含)。
87题中A与D也如出一辙,均是表示转折的连词,译为“然而,但是”,选项中一旦出现同性元素,它们必定不是正确答案,一旦发现选项中有同性元素存在,考生应立即将其排除掉。这样一来,86题只剩下可选答案C)、D),87题只剩下B)、C),可选范围迅速缩小,再根据上下文逻辑关系的判定可得出正确答案86D),87B)。
此外,完形填空中也设置了不少“三一题型”,如四个选项分别为 findings, proposals, prospects, purposes;
根据“三一原则”,我们可以首先将寻找答案的范围缩小为其中三个首字母一样的单词。
步骤四、寻找线索,上下连贯,合乎逻辑
完形填空必须要从整篇文章入手,通篇考虑,结合上下文答案,有些题从单纯的句子来考虑,四个选项均可以入选,但从上下文的线索入手,就能迅速排除其它三个。如果空白处位于引导状语从句的位置上,则首先要分清是何种状语从句(时间、原因、条件、结果、目的、让步、比较关系、行为方式……),然后再选择适当的词填空。总之,填入单词后要使句子意思和结构都完整,上下连贯,合乎逻辑。从某种意义上说,“寻找线索”不仅可以考察考生的语言知识,而且更强调对文章内容的整体把握。
步骤五、回头补缺,复核全文
在做题时,如果有的难题一时做不出来,应立刻跳过此题,继续往下做。随着空格变得越来越少,对文章的理解也越来越轻松,有时就能从下文的线索和暗示中找到答案,这样再回过头来填上答案,也未为晚也。一般而言第一次选择的准确率只有50%,所以选完之后务必通读全文,这样起码能多拿三个空格,每篇完形都有三到五个难点。填空全部完成后,还要将答案带入原文通读一遍,检查是否前后贯通、内容清楚、主题突出,而且还可以在这一过程中得到启发,把做不上来的题目填出来。
综上所述,以上这五个步骤在整个完形填空的做题过程中缺一不可。对文章大意的了解是前提条件,答案的初选是做题的核心,在这一过程中,除了逻辑关系以外,其余5种出题思路更主要的是针对考生平时的积累和记忆的程度,考察考生的语言功底。完形填空的成功离不开对篇章的整体把握,孤立地、片面地看问题,终会使你失望而归。
