1、- 1 -完形填空说明文说明文往往围绕一个问题从不同的侧面来加以说明,通常结构严谨,句子结构复杂,因此也是高考完形填空题中较难理解的一种文体。其主要特点为:1. 开头点题在说明文类的完形填空中,作者一般在文章的首句直接提出说明的对象,这是掌握说明细节的前提。2.结构清晰说明文一般按一定的顺序展开。理清文章的说明顺序,对于正确把握文意和上下文的逻辑关系,选择正确答案具有重要意义。3.难度较大说明文往往采用比较正式的文体,表述准确严谨,生词术语较多,句子较长,结构较为复杂。4.遣词用字简练说明文一般采用简练的语言,按一定的方法介绍事物的类别、性质、特点、构造、成因、关系或事物的运动变化、发展的过程
2、及其规律。5.条理清晰说明文十分讲究条理性,一般采取时间顺序、空间顺序、逻辑顺序或认知顺序来说明事物或事理。【解题技巧】1. 快速弄清文章大意对于此类文章我们结合选择项,进行粗读或略读,对文章的大意要先有一个大体的了解。说明文往往生词较多,而题材又比较广泛,所以阅读时,首先要能够掌握文章的大意。2. 弄清楚说明的顺序把握了说明顺序,就能准确把握文章的脉络,加强对整篇文章的理解。3. 把握文章的组织结构,理清事实细节把握语篇特征对理解文意与答题极为有利。说明性的文章一般都是一篇完整的、意思表达清楚的、逻辑比较严密的短文。在阅读这类文章时,我们一定要仔细研读文章的开头和结尾,从主题句着手,找出支持
3、句,然后寻找文章的结论。这时,我们还要特别注意,不要被表面的一些细节所迷惑,我们在理解细节的基础上,还要斟酌文字的内涵意义,从而对文章- 2 -进行深层次的理解。4. 注重上下文语境应逐句精读短文,逐题分析选项,对特定的语境作深入的理解,克服思维定势,根据全文大意和词不离句、句不离文的原则逐项填空。5. 熟练做题方法,遵循四个原则:(1)上下一致。每个选择项必须从全文出发,从大处着手,避免孤立地分析每一空格,造成误选。(2)语法正确。从语法地角度去考虑动词的时态、语态以及词类用法。(3)逻辑合理。在完形填空题中,逻辑推理非常重要,有时每个选择项从语法上讲都正确,但是有的是不合语境逻辑的。(4)
