夹叙夹议文
【命题探究】
此类文章往往是高考中较难的题目,也是最易造成失分的一种文章体裁。从近两年的高考完形填空来看,很多的完形填空往往在平
1.先叙述作者自己的某一个生活经历或见闻,然后针对这一事件发表自己对生活的看法,或揭示生活的真理。
2.作者先提出一种观点或看法,然后围绕这一观点或看法用具体的事例加以说明,有时也可能是用几个事例从不同的侧面来说明。
3.提出一种观点或见解,然后用某一事例来阐述这一观点,最后再进一步地总结和升华。
1.对于夹叙夹议类的完形填空,抓住作者要说明的观点或要阐述的生活哲理是做好这一类型题目的关键,而作者叙述所发生的事件或生活经历只是为表达其思想服务的。
2.理清文章的结构,弄清文章是先叙述后揭示哲理或议论,还是先揭示哲理或观点或议论,而后再叙述。

Several thoughts__44__my mind as I watched him work.He wasn’t well-dressed.He had on a pair of shorts and a(n)__45__T-shirt.The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern__46__ would want to be seen riding on.But he seemed__47__with life.There he was,working hard at his small business,__48__at passers-by and stopping to chat now and then__49__elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.
There was a noticeable touch of__50__in the way he seemed to be doing things-__51__the windscreen(挡风玻璃),then standing back to admire it; scrubbing(擦净) the wheels and__52__,standing back to see what they looked like after the scrub.
It was a__53__to learn,I felt.At no age need one have to beg for a__54__if one has good health and is willing to work hard.For a while I felt__55__of myself.Young as I am—just sixteen,and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon.

【方法指导】
本文是先叙述后发表议论的夹叙夹议的体裁。
作者看到一位穿着朴素的老人在停车场起劲地擦车,于是心有感触,发表议论,年轻的自己应
1.体会作者的情感态度,先推敲后选择
如第39题作者获得人生有意义的教育,故选择D项useful“有用的”,第42题作者描述老人擦车的认真态度,从一辆车到另一辆车,故选择C项moved。另外还有第44、45、46、47、48、50、55都充分体现了作者的情感态度。
2.利用上下文的逻辑关系解题
高考完形填空最常考的四种逻辑关系是并列、转折、让步、因果,被称为逻辑“四大天王”,几乎每年必考。完形填空需从特定的“情景”意义来选择一个最佳答案
如本篇完形填空第37题,“这个早晨和往常不一样了,作者没睡懒觉,”所以用however表示转折。
3.利用语境共现关系解题
完形填空的文章是一个意义相关联的语篇,围绕一个话题展开,所以在行文中出现语境共现是不可避免的。
如本篇完形填空第38、41、42、46、51题描述老人在停车场的行为。
