2014年中考英语选词填空试题
短文填空是近年才创设的一种新题型。这种题型为：给出一篇难易适中的短文，中间去掉10个单词，同时在一个方框内给出10至12个单词，① 让考生根据短文的内容，确定词义②用方框中所给词的适当形式填空，确定词性和词形变化，把这些单词填入空白处，使文章正确、通顺。
这种题型考查的是考生的整体阅读能力和基础语法的运用能力，特别是单词的词性和词形转化能力。它是介于阅读理解和书面表达之间的一种题型。
根据平时的观察，学生在做英语的“选词填空”时，遭遇较多困难，有的甚至条件反射一样畏惧或厌烦。在此，我把平时积累的解题技巧和训练技巧略作归纳，希望能给有需要的学生朋友提供一点帮助。
“选词填空”要求学生利用所给的12个词汇（一般有名词、代词、动词、形容词、副词、数词、冠词、介词和连词等）补全一篇有10个空缺的短文。要攻克这一难关，学生除了要进行大量的课外阅读，积累丰富的语言知识外，还需掌握一定的解题技巧。
1.在拿到题目后，不要急于看文章，首先对备选的词汇研究几遍，对词性作简单的标记，例如：名词-n.，动词-v.，形容词-a.，副词-ad. 等等。同时对词义作初步的理解。
2.通读全文，语义完整、适用、合乎逻辑是做好填词的前提。通过上、下文的句子，充分理解短文的内容，注意发现固定搭配关系，凭借语感积极主动地猜测空格中所缺的信息，根据需要去备选词汇中寻找匹配的答案。
3.在选定单词后，不要轻率地填入。在填词过程中，需要瞻前顾后，既要符合本句的含义，又要保证句式结构的正确。当你选定一个名词时，要考虑是否要把它变成复数或“所有格”形式。例如：match-matches， friend-friend‘s/friends’。其他还要考虑名词是否需要变成形容词，例如：sun-sunny， use-useful/useless/used， danger-dangerous；在遇到动词时，要有意识地去考虑时态和语态的变化以及非谓语动词形式的变化（动词不定式- to do， 现在分词-doing， 过去分词-done， 固定搭配-enjoy doing sth./used to do sth./have sth. done…）。
形容词和副词填空时要主动去判定是否需要变成比较级或级，还有它们之间的相互转换以及形容词变名词的需求也需考虑，例如：interesting-more /the most interesting， happy-happily，happy -happiness； 填入代词时，需注意辨别主格、宾格、名词性和形容词性物主代词或反身代词的用法；数词方面要注意基数词和序数词的变化以及分数和虚实数的用法，例如：three-third， 2/3-two thirds， one thousand/thousands of ；冠词只需要在 a或an之间判别，如a girl/an old man； 当遇到介词和连词时，就更简单，只要符合上下文逻辑或固定短语搭配，填入即可。为了方便记忆，试着记住下面的顺口溜：空前空后要注意，“名词”单复数要牢记，还有‘s 不能弃，“动词”注意要变形，“形副”注意要用三种级，要填“数词”请留意，千万别忘 “基” 和“序”，填入“代词”需慎重，五格变化要谨记。
4.完成填词后，应通读全文，复核校对。检查单词拼写是否正确，是否有时态、语态、惯用法及词语选用上的错误，以确保答案的正确性。最后把答案填入答卷时，切勿错位。
例题解析：
（一）用方框中所给词语的适当形式填空，使短文正确、通顺、连贯（每词限用一次）。

【主旨大意】这是一篇演讲稿。通过一个生动的例子告诉大家一个道理：我们可以用不诚实的方式获取短期的利益，但迟早会真相大白，并为此付出高昂的代价。诚实才是上策。
答案：
71. living 现在分词作定语，修饰 student
72. job 前一句说该学生取得了惊人的成绩，都认为他能有一份好工作（job)和光明未来。
73. chance 句意：他甚至没有被给面试的机会。
74. why .why引导的宾语从句表示原因。
75. dishonest由下文知那个学生4次逃票，所以是不诚实的。
76. easy 句意：...发现逃票很容易。注意句型：It is +adj.+to do sth.
77. in order to 句意：...为了节省钱，他经常逃票。
78. four four times 四次。注意用基数词
79. come out 。 "the truth will come out "将会真相大白。
80. best . "honesty is the best rule"诚实才是上策。注意the后的级形式。
（二）用方框中所给词语的适当形式填空，使短文正确、通顺、连贯（每词限用一次）。
