² 完型填空题复习指导

一、 答题技巧

这是一种较难的题型,但也不是无规律可循。20个空中有三分之一是考查动词的使用,学生根据上、下文提供的信息可判定其时态和语态,而后选准相应的形式即可。这就要求学生还有一些空是考查词义,也就是考查学生对文章的理解和推理。这类题可用排除法,把备选答案一一放进空里,意思最通顺的就是正确答案。

二、 复习重点和难点

准确记忆各种时态的动词变化形式,尤其当时态和语态同时变化的时候(如现在完成时的被动语态、虚拟语气的被动语态等)。完形填空是通过使用非课文材料来考查学生领会和应用所学语法和词汇的,虽然和课文内容结合的不是很紧,但考查的点却和所学知识密切相关。也就是说学生通过学课文掌握的原理性的东西在没见过的材料中进行应用。

Passage 1

Throughout the nations more than 15,000 school districts,widely differing approaches to teaching science and math have emerged.Though there can be strength in diversity,a new international analysis suggests that this variability has instead contributed to lackluster(平淡的)achievement scores by U.S.children relative to their peers in other developed countries.

Indeed,concludes William H. Schmidt of Michigan State University,who led the new analysis,“No single intellectually coherent vision dominates U.S.educational practice in math or science.”The reason,he said,“is because the system is deeply and fundamentally flawed.”

The new analysis,released this week by the National Science Foundation in Arlington,Va.,is based on data collected from about 50 nations as part of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study.

Not only do approaches to teaching science and math vary among individual U.S.communities,the report finds,but there appears to be little strategic focus within a school districts curricula,its textbooks,or its teachers activities.This contrasts sharply with the coordinated national programs of most other countries.

On average,U.S.students study more topics within science and math than their international counterparts do.This creates an educational environment that“is a mile wide and an inch deep,”Schmidt notes.

For instance,eighth graders in the United States cover about 33 topics in math versus just 19 in Japan.Among science courses,the international gap is even wider.U.S.curricula for this age level resemble those of a small group of countries including Australia,Thailand,Iceland,and Bulgaria.Schmidt asks whether the United States wants to be classed with these nations,whose educational systems“share our pattern of splintered(支离破碎的)visions”but which are not economic leaders.

The new report“couldnt come at a better time,”says Gerald Wheeler,executive director of the National Science Teachers Association in Arlington.“The new National Science Education Standards provide that focused vision,”including the call“to do less,but in greater depth.”

Implementing the new science standards and their math counterparts will be the challenge,he and Schmidt agree,because the decentralized responsibility for education in the United States requires that any reforms be tailored and instituted one community at a time.

In fact,Schmidt argues,reforms such as these proposed national standards“face an almost impossible task,because even though they are intellectually coherent,each becomes only one more voice in the babble(嘈杂声).”

1.According to the passage,the teaching of science and math in America is _____.

A.focused on tapping students potential

B.characterized by its diversity

C.losing its vitality gradually

D.going downhill in recent years

2.The fundamental flaw of American school education is that _____.

A.it lacks a coordinated national program

B.it sets a very low academic standard for students

C.it relies heavily on the initiative of individual teachers

D.it attaches too much importance to intensive study of school subjects

3.By saying that the U.S.educational environment is“mile wide and an inch deep”(Line 2,Para.5),the author means U.S.educational practice_____.

A.lays stress on quality at the expense of quantity

B.offers an environment for comprehensive education

C.encourages learning both in depth and in scope

D.scratches the surface of a wide range of topics

4.The new National Science Education Standards are good news in that they will _____.

A.provide depth to school science education

B.solve most of the problems in school teaching

C.be able to meet the demands of the community

D.quickly dominate U.S.educational practice

5.Putting the new science and math standards into practice will prove difficult because _____.

A.there is always controversy in educational circles

B.not enough educators have realized the necessity for doing so

C.school districts are responsible for making their own decisions

D.many schoolteachers challenge the acceptability of these standards

Passage 2

Sometimes the U.S.government goes out of its way to prove it can be an absolute nuisance.Take the case of Southern Clay,Inc.,which has a factory at Paris,Tennessee,putting out a clay product for cat boxes best known as“Kitty Litter”.Its a simple enough process,but the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration insists that since clay comes from the ground — an excavation half a mile from the Kitty Litter plant — the company actually is engaged in mining and milling.Therefore,says MSHA,Southern Clay is subject to all the rules that govern,say,coal miners working in shafts several hundred feet down.

The company has been told to devise an escape system and fire fighting procedure in case there is a fire in its“mine”.Southern Clay estimates it will lose 6,000 man hours in production time giving its 250 factory workers special training in how to escape from a mine disaster.

One thing that has always impressed us about cats,in addition to their tidiness,is that they seem to watch the human world with a sense of wise and detached superiority,as though they wondered what the hustle and bustle is all about.If they grin from time to time,as some people insist,its no wonder.

6.The authors purpose in writing this passage is to _____.

A.explain how Kitty Litter is produced

D.show that the government can sometimes be a nuisance

7.The clay excavation is _____.

A.The time needed in finishing the work by one man.

B.The work done by one man in one hour.

C.The man needed in finishing the work in one hour.

D.The work done by one man.

9.Judging from the passage,has the company devised an escape system and fire fighting procedure?_____

A.Yes,the company has done so because it is an order.

B.Of course,the company has done so although the company is reluctant.

C.No,the company has not done so.

D.We could not judge from the passage.

10.What does the author mean by the passages last sentence?_____

A.Cats sometimes seem to be amused by human antics.

Passage 3

In 1985 when a Japan Air Lines(JAL)jet crashed,its president,Yasumoto Takagi,called each victims family to apologize,and then promptly resigned.And in 1987,when a subsidiary of Toshiba sold sensitive military technology to the former Soviet Union,the chairman of Toshiba gave up his post.

These executive actions,which Toshiba calls“the highest form of apology,”may seem bizarre to US managers.No one at Boeing resigned after the JAL crash,which may have been caused by a faulty Boeing repair.

The difference between the two business cultures centers around different definitions of delegation.While US executives give both responsibility and authority to their employees,Japanese executives delegate only authority — the responsibility is still theirs.Although the subsidiary that sold the sensitive technology to the Soviets had its own management,the Toshiba top executives said they“must take personal responsibility for not creating an atmosphere throughout the Toshiba group that would make such activity unthinkable,even in an independently run subsidiary.”

Such acceptance of community responsibility is not unique to businesses in Japan.School principals in Japan have resigned when their students committed major crimes after school hours.Even if they do not quit,Japanese executives will often accept primary responsibility in other ways,such as taking the first pay cut when a company gets into financial trouble.Such personal sacrifices,even if they are largely symbolic,help to create the sense of community and employee loyalty that is crucial to the Japanese way of doing business.

Harvard Business School professor George Lodge calls the ritual acceptance of blame“almost a feudal(封建的)way of purging(清除)the community of dishonor,”and to some in the United States,such resignations look cowardly.However,in an era in which both business and governmental leaders seem particularly good at evading responsibility,many US managers would probably welcome an infusion(灌输)of the Japanese sense of responsibility. If,for instance,US automobile company executives offered to reduce their own salaries before they asked their workers to take pay cuts,negotiations would probably take on a very different character.

11.Why did the chairman of Toshiba resign his position in 1987?_____

A.In Japan,the leakage of a slate secret to Russians is a grave came.

B.He had been under attack for shifting responsibility to his subordinates.

C.In Japan,the chief executive of a corporation is held responsible for the mistake made by its subsidiaries.

D.He had been accused of being cowardly towards crises that were taking place in his corporation.

12.According to the passage if you want to be a good manager in Japan,you have to _____.

A.apologize promptly for your subordinates mistakes

B.be skillful in accepting blames from customers

C.make symbolic sacrifices whenever necessary

D.create a strong sense of company loyalty

13.Whats Professor George Lodges attitude towards the resignations of Japanese corporate leaders?_____

A.Sympathetic.

B.Biased.

C.Critical.

D.Approving.

14.Which of the following statements is TRUE?_____

A.Boeing had nothing to do with the JAL air crash in 1985.

B.American executives consider authority and responsibility inseparable.

C.School principals bear legal responsibility for students crimes.

D.Persuading employees to take pay cuts doesnt help solve corporate crises.

15.The passage is mainly about _____.

A.resignation as an effective way of dealing with business crises

B.the importance of delegating responsibility to employees

C.ways of evading responsibility in times of crises

D.the difference between two business cultures

Passage 4

A treaty on an international Law of the Sea will be signed in Caracas,Venezuela,where negotiations under the auspices of the United Nations began in 1974.

The date of the signing ceremony necessarily remains uncertain,but a sense of urgency remains.

Despite the fact that some 60 weeks have been spent in actual conference sessions,the issues which have plagued the series of Law of the Sea meetings from the beginning have yet to be resolved.

The principal roadblock to a formal pact deals with the potential wealth to be mined from the ocean and just how it will be controlled and distributed.Some of the 140 nations participating in the debate are landlocked.Few have the technological ability or the capital to establish an operation to mine the seabeds for the manganese,nickel,copper,and cobalt known to tempt commercial development.But all want to share in the rewards.

There is a growing awareness that mining organizations are going to be wary of heavy fees and taxes that could doom a venture before it is well begun.The focus now is on creation of some sort of international authority to monitor seabed enterprises and their profits.

The goal of a treaty draft from current negotiations at United Nations headquarters in New York is unlikely to be achieved,according to U.S.AmbassadoratLarge Elliot Richardson.

Although Richardson described the conference mood as“constructive”,he is optimistic only to the extent that there is“every indication of an eventual treaty.”

And the most optimistic outlook is for a signing ceremony late next year — or perhaps in 1981.

16.The purpose of the passage is to _____.

A.describe the rules for the Law of the Sea

B.offer a status report on negotiations for a Law of the Sea

C.describe Elliot Richardsons efforts toward a Law of the Sea

D.describe seabed mining operation

17.According to the passage the main obstacle to negotiating a Law of the Sea is _____.

A.arriving at an agreement on how to distribute the wealth from seabed mining operations

B.finding ways to finance seabed mining operations

C.acquiring the technological ability to mine seabeds

D.determining how to limit the heavy fees and taxes associated with seabed mining

18.According to the passage,the main problem that the mining organizations must deal with now is _____.

A.every nation should share in rewards

B.to aware heavy fees and taxes

C.to create international authority

D.to sign an international Law of the Sea

19.The current negotiations on an international Law of the Sea are taking place at _____.

A.Caracas,Venezuela

B.United Nations headquarters in New York

C.Elliot Richardsons office

D.The information is not given in the article.

20.According to the article all the following statements are true except _____.

A.most of the 140 nations do not have the technology to mine the seabed

B.one of the goals of the conference is the establishment of an international authority to watch over seabed mining operations

C.burden some taxes and fees may doom possible seabed mining operations

D.Elliot Richardson is absolutely certain that a treaty could be signed in 1980 or 1981

Passage 5

When people communicate face to face,they convey information in several ways apart from by the words they use.Thus,how often they make eye contact and how long they sustain that contact can indicate their degree of intimacy,interest in or understanding of what they are communicating verbally.Their posture — the way they sit or stand — can reveal attention,interest,disagreement or boredom.The distance they sit or stand from one another and the angle at which they do also can suggest friendship,hostility or respect.These and other forms of nonverbal communication are so pervasive that we usually scarcely notice them.Their importance quickly becomes apparent,however,when for some reason they are lacking or unclear.

One occasion when most people notice the importance of nonverbal communication is when they are talking on the telephone.There is an unwritten rule of telephone conversations that the listener must supply frequent and regular confirmation that he or she is listening.This is done by saying Aha,Mmhm.Yes,I see,and so on.Failure to do this often enough may result in the speaker interrupting him or herself to ask if the other person is“still there”.In face-to-face conversation,this is unnecessary,as attention and understanding are conveyed silently,chiefly by eye contact and posture.

Another situation where the importance of nonverbal communication becomes clear is during cross cultural communication.It is an instructive experience to travel in a foreign country whose culture is very different from ones own.Does one shake hands,bow,touch,point,wink,and so on,or are some or all of these behaviors considered rude?How long can eye contact be maintained without indicating something more than polite interest?How close does one stand before being disrespectful or too intimate,how far away before being thought cold or hostile?Features like these can sometimes be more important in a second language than grammatical accuracy or a good accent.

21.You can use several ways to communicate with others except _____.

A.using language

B.making eye contact

C.by the posture

D.using ear contact

22.The forms of nonverbal communication are _____.

A.very prevalent

B.apparent

C.unclear

D.noticeable

23.On what occasion people will notice the importance of nonverbal communication,according to the passage?_____

A.When you have an interview with the manager.

B.When you are in a foreign country which language you cant understand.

C.When you are having a face-to-face communication.

D.When you stand with somebody.

24.According to the passage the following statements can convey a certain kind of information except _____.

A.the time of eye contact

B.the distance between the two persons

C.the way of sitting or standing

D.the way of talking

25.What is the title of the passage?_____

A.How to Use Nonverbal Communication.

B.The Ways of Communication.

C.Nonverbal Communication.

D.The Effect of Nonverbal Communication.
