專題詳解
解題思路一：依據(jù)首句線索，緊扣主題選擇。?首句通常是文章的主題句，通常不設(shè)空，便于考生對(duì)短文主題、內(nèi)容或背景有個(gè)大概了解。它的目的是向考生提供時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物、事件、論點(diǎn)等有用的信息。把握了主題句,?對(duì)于理解全文和解題很有幫助。
①If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists. ??51 ?, you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.
51. A. Instead ?????? B. Therefore ??? C. Moreover ???? D. Otherwise
②Research has shown that two-thirds of human conversation is taken up not with discussion of the cultural or political problems of the day, not heated debates about films we've just watched or books we've just finished reading, but plain and simple __51__.
51. A. claim ????????? B. description ??????? C. gossip???????????? D. language
?
解題思路二：順應(yīng)文意,?定位選詞。?做題時(shí),?要充分利用上下文,?找到有提示作用的詞。這些詞可以是同義詞、近義詞或反義詞,?也可以是并列連詞或轉(zhuǎn)折連詞等等。
①Many people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the??51 ?one. Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work.
51.A. positive B. opposite C. same D. wrong
②More than 2,400 years ago, the Greek historian Herodotus described the Egyptian pyramids and other monuments. He may have been the first writer to consider that remains and ___52___ could provide information for later generations.

|
③The continuous presentation of frightening?stories about global warming in the popular media makes us unnecessarily frightened. Even worse, it __51__ our kids.
51. A. exhausts ??????B. depresses ??????C. terrifies???????D. exploits
?
解題思路三：注意固定搭配，常用句型。包括動(dòng)詞與介詞的搭配、動(dòng)詞與名詞的搭配以及形容詞與名詞的搭配等，同時(shí)要根據(jù)內(nèi)容選擇正確的短語(yǔ)。
①?The department for Education and Skills wants to? 60 ??teaching of modem foreign?languages (MFT) at an earlier stage in the future. Primary school children will get greater????61 ??to foreign language learning.
60. A. permit ??????B. encourage ????C. demand ????????D. offer
61. A. admission ???B. access ???????C. chance ?????????D. approach
解析：教育與技術(shù)部門將來(lái)打算在教育更早階段提供外語(yǔ)教學(xué)，所以60選D。61題考查固定搭配access to的用法，學(xué)生需要總結(jié)相關(guān)access的搭配，have access to 或者offer access to，to是介詞。
②That also explains why schools and companies organize challenging trips and physical activities to __62__ team spirit.
62. A. build up B. put down ? C. take over D. make out
③A __60__ of people now believe – incorrectly – that global warming is not even caused by humans.

60.A.persevering ?????B.?previewing ?????????C.?participating ??????????D.?promoting
61.A.accessible ??????B.?acceptable ??????????C.?available ?????????????D.?adaptable
?
解題思路五：根據(jù)生活常識(shí)以及文化背景確定選項(xiàng)。
①EFL teachers often complain that students, despite years of studying English, simply will not speak it. They’re too __63__ making mistakes of the grammar or mispronouncing words in a way that would __64__ them.
63. A. confident in B. comfortable with C. keen on D. afraid of
64. A. amuse B. inform C. remind D. embarrass
?
解題思路六:?利用原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)或同現(xiàn),?選擇最佳選項(xiàng)。?
1.?在完形填空中,?某一詞語(yǔ)通常重復(fù)出現(xiàn),?使得語(yǔ)篇中的句子相互銜接和連貫,?從而構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的意義整體。
①First of all he was a window-cleaner and in his first week he managed to ______ six windows.
A.?rub???????B.?drop??????C.?break??????D.?clean??
?
2. 同現(xiàn)指意義上相互聯(lián)系的單詞同時(shí)出現(xiàn)在同一語(yǔ)篇中。一個(gè)語(yǔ)篇，一個(gè)話題，要求有與之相連的詞匯。??
1）名詞同現(xiàn)：與一個(gè)話題或一個(gè)名詞出現(xiàn)在同一個(gè)語(yǔ)境的另一個(gè)名詞。如：??
school---primary school—middle school—college—university students—pupils—graduates—postgraduates ?
2）動(dòng)詞同現(xiàn)：與一個(gè)話題或一個(gè)名詞出現(xiàn)在同一個(gè)語(yǔ)境的另一個(gè)動(dòng)詞。如：
???school—teach—learn—attend—found—drop out—graduate—be dismissed ?
3） 形容詞同現(xiàn); 就某一語(yǔ)境而言所能出現(xiàn)的形容詞也是有規(guī)律的。如：?在學(xué)校這個(gè)語(yǔ)境中：
（key）school—（optional）course—（compulsory）course ?
4）結(jié)構(gòu)同現(xiàn): 結(jié)構(gòu)同現(xiàn)批搭配之類的句型和成對(duì)出現(xiàn)的短語(yǔ)。如：
some…,others; on one hand…,on the other hand; former…,latter; so…that; not only…but also; hardly/scarcely…when…; no sooner…than…; be about to do /be doing /had done /be on the point of doing/be to do/be ready to do/be on the way … when…; ?
?①I?put?my?head?in,?expecting?the?worst.?But?to?my?surprise,?the?room?wasn’t?empty?at?all.?It?had?furniture,?curtains,?a?TV,?and?even?paintings?on?the?wall.?And?then?on?the?well-made?bed?sat?Amy,?my?new?______,?dressed?neatly.??
A.?roommate???B.?classmate???C.?neighbor???D.?companion?
②The ??60 ??Knows
…….Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction.
60. A. Nose ???? B. Eye ??????? C. Heart ??????? D. Hand
解題思路七：仔細(xì)分析長(zhǎng)難句。找出句子主干，主從句，定語(yǔ)狀語(yǔ)等。
①In today’s American society, high school dropout has day by day grown into a big problem threatening social and economic stability, as many cases of family ___51___ or even tragedies, caused by youth dropout are grabbing headlines in media.
51.A. objections B. conflicts C. establishments D. happiness
答案： B。?長(zhǎng)難句分析， 第一層是as 引導(dǎo)的原因狀語(yǔ)從句，主句是school dropout has grown into a big problem. 后面緊跟 動(dòng)名詞做定語(yǔ)。 As 從句中 caused 過(guò)去分詞作后置定語(yǔ)。在進(jìn)行句子分析時(shí)，一定注意把定語(yǔ)等找出來(lái)。
②In many countries, the language of education is not the same as the language of the home for?53?the majority of children . Furthermore, in many countries, young language learners comprise the most rapidly growing segment of the elementary (primary) school population. 54?While ?in some schools there is no extra support to help young language learners acquire the language of instruction, in most countries where there are large numbers of young learners, there is a ___55___ awareness of their special needs.
55. A. reducing ??????B. watching ??????C. growing ??????????D. slipping
解析： 55題根據(jù)前文可以推斷出選C. growing 表示提高的意識(shí)?？梢詫?duì)這個(gè)長(zhǎng)句子進(jìn)行長(zhǎng)難句分析：首先是while 引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句。 在while 從句中運(yùn)用了help sb do sth 的結(jié)構(gòu)。 在主句中，where 引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句，先行詞是countries.?
?
解題思路八：仔細(xì)推敲, 注重邏輯。?
做完完形填空題后,要根據(jù)所選答案迅速地把文章完整地讀一遍, 看語(yǔ)法、慣用法對(duì)不對(duì);看是否符合上下文的邏輯; 看是否符合故事情節(jié)的發(fā)展,以便更正可能的錯(cuò)誤選擇。一個(gè)完整的語(yǔ)篇應(yīng)該是符合邏輯的，文章邏輯關(guān)系的取得主要靠過(guò)渡詞的使用。作者利用轉(zhuǎn)承語(yǔ)保證文章的邏輯，學(xué)生在做完形填空時(shí)應(yīng)通過(guò)自己對(duì)上下文的理解，找到適當(dāng)?shù)倪壿嬯P(guān)系，然后選擇正確的過(guò)渡詞。學(xué)生必掌握常見(jiàn)的過(guò)渡詞：
1. 遞進(jìn)??
in addition, furthermore, again, also, besides, moreover, what’s more, what’s worse, to make matters worse, to make things worse , worse still ?
2.比較??
in the same way, as with, similarly, equally, in comparison, just as ?

a survey of 99 green buildings in America found that on average, they use 30% less energy than conventional buildings. ……. The traditional approach of trying to minimize construction costs, ___58___, can lead to higher energy bills and wasted materials.
58. ?A. in return ?? B. for instance ?? C. by contrast ? D. in general
答案解析：綠色建筑比傳統(tǒng)建筑少用30%的能源，與之形成對(duì)比的是，傳統(tǒng)建筑會(huì)導(dǎo)致更高的能源成本及材料的浪費(fèi)。所以選C，與上文形成轉(zhuǎn)折對(duì)比。
例2：
The following numbers would be ??55 ???for most of us to remember. 1492178919931848. But look at them in “?chunks”, and it becomes much easier. 1492 ?1789 ?1993 ?1848.
55. A. convenient B. impossible C. meaningful D. technical

If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists. ?51 , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people is learned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.
In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more ?52 ?to people‘s lives. The ?53 ?is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.
Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be ??54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that ?55 ??attract too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone.
First Impression
To help determine the ?56 ?of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other‘s individuality. Then students were asked to ??57?what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.
As it turned out, their ?58 ?judgment often held true. Students seemed to ??59 ?at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.
The ??60 ??Knows
Scientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones — natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling ?61 ??to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as ?62 as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.
Face Value
Being fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we find attractive. Researchers had people judge faces for ?63 ?.?The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces. The way we ?64 ??attractiveness seems to be somewhat automatic.
When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to ??65 ??words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.

In the 1960s, Douglas McGregor, one of the key thinkers in the art of management, developed the mow famous Theory X and Theory Y. Theory X is the idea that people instinctively ??51 ??work and will do anything to avoid it. Theory Y is the view that everyone has the potential to find satisfaction in work.
In any case, despite so much evidence to the ??52 ?, many managers still agree to Theory X. They believe, ??53 ??, that their employees need constant supervision if they are to work effectively, or that decisions must be imposed from ??54 ??without consultation. This, of course, makes for authoritarian (專制的) managers.
Different cultures have different ways of ??55 ??people. Unlike authoritarian management, some cultures, particularly in Asia, are well known for the consultative nature of decision-making—all members of the department or work group are asked to ??56 ??to this process. This is management by the collective opinion. Many western companies have tried to imitate such Asian ways of doing things, which are based on general ??57 ?. Some experts say that women will become more effective managers than men because they have the power to reach common goals in a way that traditional ??58 ??managers cannot.
A recent trend has been to encourage employees to use their own initiative, to make decisions on their own without ??59 ??managers first. This empowerment?(授權(quán)) has been part of the trend towards downsizing: ??60 ??the number of management layers in companies. After de-layering in this way, a company may be ??61 ??with just a top level of senior managers, front-line managers and employees with direct contact with the public. Empowerment takes the idea of delegation (委托) much further than has ??62 ??been the case. Empowerment and delegation mean new forms of management control to ??63 ??that the overall business plan is being followed, and that operations become more profitable under the new organization, rather than less.
Another trend is off-site or ??64 ??management, where teams of people linked by e-mail and the Internet work on projects from their own houses. Project managers evaluate the ??65 ??
of the team members in terms of what they produce for projects, rather than the amount of time they spend on them.

A 篇
After the college-board examinations in June, Basil Duke Lee and five other boys from St. Regis School ___51___ the train for the West. Two got out at Pittsburgh, one slanted south toward St. Louis and two stayed in Chicago; from then on Basil was alone. It was the first time in his life that he had ever felt the need of tranquility, but now he took long breaths of it; for, though things had gone better toward the end, he had had a / an ___52___ year at school.
He wore one of those extremely flat derbies (常禮帽) in vogue during the twelfth year of the century, and a blue business suit became a little too short for his constantly ___53___ body. Within he was by turns a disembodied (空洞的) spirit, almost ___54___ of his person and moving in a mist of impressions and emotions, and a fiercely competitive individual trying ___55___ to control the rush of events that were the steps in his own ___56___ from child to man. He believed that everything was a matter of ___57___ — the current principle of American education — and his fantastic ___58___ was continually leading him to expect too much. He wanted to be a great athlete, popular, brilliant and always happy.
