Some time later, they stopped at a hill and there were lilacs all round. The young woman rushed up to the nearest and buried her face in the flowers. Carefully, she some.

考點:生活類文章閱讀

考點分析: 考點1:日常生活類 一、完型填空題的命題特點 
     完型填空題是一種綜合性比較強的測試題,它把單項填空和閱讀理解等題型融為一體,它不僅考查學生對詞匯、詞組、語法、句型和常識邏輯等語言基礎知識的掌握情況和正確使用語法知識的能力,而且也考查學生的理解能力、推理能力、以及情景語感等方面綜合理解和運用語言的能力。完型填空題通常有兩種題型:一種是選擇填空題,即四選一;另一種是短文填空題。其中,以第一種較為普遍。 
二、完型填空的命題趨勢     
1、體裁、題材多樣,考察學生涉獵各種信息的能力 
    體裁有記敘文、說明文等;題材涉及到趣味故事、幽默小品、科普知識、日常生活、人物小記、社會熱點話題等等。短文一般文章短小,情節(jié)連貫,層次分明,線索清楚。目的是考查學生是否有閱讀各種體裁、題材文章的能力以及獲取各種新息的能力。  
2、側(cè)重整體理解、考查學生快速閱讀理解能力。
   解完型填空題需要學生具備視讀、跳讀、查讀、猜詞等各種快速閱讀技巧。因為解題時間有限,在短短的時間內(nèi),要完成全文和選項的閱讀,還要進行正確判斷、推理、核查等工作。可見閱讀速度非常重要。     
3、側(cè)重基礎知識,考查學生語言知識的能力。
      完型填空以文入手,結(jié)合文章的內(nèi)容考查學生的基礎知識,主要是詞語搭配、近義詞辨 異、辨析句子結(jié)構(gòu)、掌握語法規(guī)則的能力。  
4、上下文對照,考查學生捕捉關鍵詞的能力。
      解完型填空題時,單獨看一句話是找不到正確答案的,需要閱讀下句或者若干句才能明白。所謂上下對照,即在上文和下文中找到與正確答案相同的關鍵詞。因此,在做題時要邊讀邊在大腦中儲存上下文信息的能力,捕捉關鍵詞。  
5、設置語境,考查學生的分析推理能力。
     旨在考查學生在選項都符合語法及句子結(jié)構(gòu)的情況下能否利用前后語境去推斷出正確答案。    
6、結(jié)合生活,考查學生利用常識題的能力。
     目的考查學生的生活常識,看看學生是否善于觀察生活,積累生活常識,能否利用常識去做恰當?shù)倪x擇。     
7、關注連詞,考查學生對行文邏輯、句子關聯(lián)的理解能力。     此項用來考查學生在缺少連詞的情況想,通過閱讀能否理解句子的與句子的關系,是否了解行文邏輯的要求,能否掌握表示因果、轉(zhuǎn)折、并列、條件、讓步等的連詞的用法。 
三、完型填空題的解題步驟:      
1、通讀全文,了解大意    
      越過空擋,通讀全文,理順題意,找出信息詞,建立語言的整體感。這是做好完型 填空題的關鍵。因為完型填空題的特點是著眼于整體理解。     
2、細讀首尾,推測意圖   
     文章的首句是全文的“窗口”,尾句是文章的總結(jié)、結(jié)論或點睛之筆。這樣,通過閱 讀首句和尾句,就可以了解背景知識,對于空格位置的詞語進行大膽分析和判斷,以便揣測作者的意圖,理順思路,為后面的答題做好鋪墊。     
3、綜合考慮,瞻前顧后  
      在通讀全文的基礎上,根據(jù)全文大意,展開邏輯思維,瞻前顧后,分析這一空格處在 句中的地位,前后的關系和它所起的作用,認真觀察選項,仔細推敲,確定最佳答案。

4、復讀全文,驗證答案  做完題目以后,要立足整體,再次通讀全文,從語法入手,檢查一下句子的時態(tài)、語法、主謂一致、代詞的性、數(shù)、格以及詞語的搭配等是否正確。若有疑問,必須根據(jù)文章的中心思想,從意義、語法的角度來仔細權衡,加以改正,彌補疏漏。

Those who have suffered from insomnia know the sinking feeling of watching the clock tick.Now a new study in the Archives of Internal Medicine suggests that lying in bed awake may actually contribute to the problem of sleeplessness.

The study of 79 adults(average age 72)with insomnia aimed to determine whether brief behavioral interventions for insomnia would help.Traditional behavioral therapy(療法)requires at least half a dozen hour-long sessions with a therapist — a costly commitment many patients either can't make or don't have access to.Other options include sleep-aiding medications or supplements.In the current study,the 39 participants in the behavioral therapy group received a 45- to 60-minute instructing session,plus a 30-minute follow-up session and two 20-minute phone calls.

Doctors offered the following behavioral interventions for improving sleep: reduce time in bed; get up at the same time every day,regardless of sleep duration; don't go to bed unless sleepy; and don't stay in bed unless asleep.

The other 40 participants in the study were given printed educational materials about insomnia,which included the same instructions given to the intervention group,but without the individualized sessions with a therapist.Two weeks later,the latter group also got a 10-minute follow-up phone call.

At the end of four weeks,the behavioral treatment group was significantly more likely to show improvements in sleep than the printed-materials group.By that time,55% of those who received behavioral treatment no longer met the criteria for insomnia,compared with 13% of the group that got educational brochures.

The good news comes at the same time as a report on the health effects of insomnia from the U.K.'s Mental Health Foundation.The report,Sleep Matters,suggests a link between insomnia and poor relationships,low energy levels and an inability to concentrate.Poor sleep has already been linked to depression,immune deficiency and heart disease.

1.What is the meaning of the underlined word “ insomnia”?

A.sleeplessness B.depression

C.heart disease D.immune deficiency

2.What is the disadvantage of traditional behavioral therapy?

A.It can’t help.

B.It costs a lot of money.

C.It requires sessions with a therapist.

D.It includes sleep-aiding medications.

3.How to improve sleep according to the doctor?

A.Lying in bed awake.

B.Get up early every day.

C.Don’t go to bed late at night.

D.Don’t stay in bed if you are not asleep.

4.We can learn from the text that insomnia may cause the following results except________.

A.depression B.concentration

C.immune deficiency D.heart disease

“Don't worry if you have problems!” It is easy to say until you are in the midst of a really big one. The only people who don't have troubles are gathered in little neighborhoods. Most communities have at least one. We call them cemeteries. If you're breathing, you have difficulties. It's the way of life. And believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be good for you! Let me explain.

Maybe you have heard the Great Barrier Reef, stretching some 1,800 miles from New Guinea to Australia. Tour guides regularly take visitors to view the reef.

On one tour, a traveler asked the guide an interesting question. "I notice that the lagoon (瀉湖) side of the reef looks pale and lifeless, while the ocean side is vibrant and colorful," the traveler observed. Why is this?

The guide gave an interesting answer, "The coral around the lagoon side is in still water, with no challenge for its survival. It dies early. The coral on the ocean side is constantly being tested by wind, waves and storms. It has to fight for its survival every day. As it is challenged and tested, it changes and adapts. It grows healthy. It grows strong. And it reproduces."

Then he added, “That's the way it is with every living organism.”

That's how it is with people. Challenged and tested, we come alive! Like coral pounded by the sea, we grow. Physical demands can cause us to grow stronger. Mental and emotional stress can produce tough-mindedness and resiliency. Spiritual testing can produce strength of character and faithfulness. So, you have problems? No problem! Just tell yourself, "There I grow again!"

Remember: A smooth sea never made a skilled mariner.

1.Who has no problems according to the passage?

A. The persons who are very famous.

B. The persons who have much money.

C. The persons who have been born.

D. The persons who are living in the cemeteries.

2. In the writer's opinion, ________.

A. problems bring us much trouble

B. problems have two sides, good or bad

C. we should try to stay away from any trouble

D. the fewer things we do, the less trouble we'll meet

3. The reason why lagoon side of the reef has no life is _______.

A. it hasn't got any sunlight

B. it has less energy than others

C. it never faces any challenge and tests

D. it has no work to do every day

4.After reading this passage, we should ________.

A. regard any problem as challenge

B. learn from the lagoon side

C. worry your problem

D. enter into cemeteries

Escape from FoMO

Here’s a test you might enjoy: rate these situations on a number scale, ranging from 1 for mild discomfort to 7 for unbearable distress.

Situation 1: you’re visiting New York City and realize there’s no way you’ll be able to get to all the exhibits, see all the recommended plays or take in even part of the“musts”. How do you feel now? Something like 5?

Situation 2: you’re at dinner with friends, and you’ve all agreed to make it a strictly phone-free evening. But your smart phone won’t stop beeping Twitter and text alerts. Something is obviously up in your social network, but you can’t check. Even 7 wouldn’t match the stress you’re feeling now.

Welcome to FoMO (Fear of Missing Out), the latest mental disorder caused by social media connections sharing updates that leaves individuals feeling that they are missing out on something more exciting, important, or interesting going on somewhere else. It is an outcome of technological advancement and booming social information. According to a recent study, 56 percent of those who use social networks suffer this.

It is not uncommon that at night when you’ve sworn again to put the phone aside or turn off the computer, you cast one last glance at the screen on your way to bed in case you miss some titbit (趣聞)supplied by mere acquaintances or even strangers’ requesting your “friendship”.

We all know the studies showing that end-of-life regrets centre on what we didn’t do, rather than on what we did. If so, constantly watching others doing things that we are not is rich ground for a future of looking back in sorrow. Attractive online images—so charming from afar—make FoMO more destructive. Technology has become the major construct through which we define intimacy (親密).You may look on in wonder as someone taps out an endless text message instead of actually talking to the person they’re with. Being connected to everyone, all the time, is a new human experience; we’re just not equipped to cope with it yet.

Researchers say our dependence on technology can be reduced if we manage to separate ourselves, even for short periods of time, from our gadgets. However, the problem can only be settled when we grasp that our brains and our humanity—not our technologies—enable this addiction. We cannot seek solutions without honestly asking ourselves why we are so afraid of missing out. Researchers find FoMO occurs mostly in people with unfulfilled psychological needs in fields such as love, respect and security. FoMO levels are highest in young people, in particular young men.

What, then, can we do about something so damaging to our quality of life? The best way to cope with FoMO is to recognize that, at our fast-paced life, we are sometimes bound to miss out. Instead of trying to maximize our benefits, we seek a merely “good enough” result. If you still doubt that“good enough” is the best cure for FoMO, the words of the American essayist and poet Ralph Waldo Emerson might strike the right chord,“For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.”
