点评 从近几年高考完形填空题看，纯语法知识几乎不考，主要考查考生灵活运用所学词汇的能力，尤其是以考查实词或信息词为主，着重考查考生对文章的内在逻辑和整体把握能力．因此，把握句间和段落之间的内在逻辑关系，通过上下文暗示，对篇章、段落或句意的整体把握；再则，干扰项的设置与语法结构无甚关系，重在文意干扰．因此，把握文意和具体语境，通过对词义的辨析，是解完形填空的最好手段．

1．I remember the last time I was in Gothenburg，I walked past a man who was holding a sign that said"All You Can Eat Pizza"．I was looking at the man，and I was looking at the sign．But I didn't end up going to the All You Can Eat Pizza．
Looking at this man with the sign in his hand，I started thinking about undercover marketing．Well，this man and this sign was more or less the opposite of undercover marketing．He was telling the world who he was working for．
Once in a while，you don't realize that you've been marketed to．People have named it stealth（秘密的） marketing or undercover marketing．One of the most obvious examples is when stars get free clothes or free products that they are using to get other"ordinary"people to start buying them．The same goes for product placement（植入式广告） in movies．The reason it's undercover marketing，is that it doesn't say anywhere that we're actually looking at any type of promotion．I remember Sylvester Stallone took a $500，000payment from one tobacco company to mark its brand in three of his films．
The reason why undercover marketing works is that people tend to trust it more than if they know that it's an advertisement that a company has paid for．And，it's a lot easier to  create a buzzwith a marketing campaign that people don't know is a marketing campaign．One great example is when Ray-Ban started their marketing campaign on Youtube （视频网站）called Sunglass Catch．Right now，it has more than 5.2million views，and I think that the number would have been much lower if people had known that it was a paid marketing campaign by Ray-Ban．
The most obvious risk for an undercover marketing campaign is failing to keep the campaign hidden．If people feel，or understand that they are being manipulated （操作）into liking the product，they might become angry at the product and/or at the company．This way，especially with the speed of communication in social media，a failed undercover marketing campaign might hurt a company really bad．

A．he wasn't attracted by the sign
B．he was interested in the man
C．he was very busy that day．
D．he didn't understand the sign at all
37．Why did the tobacco company give Sylvester Stallone money？D
A．Because the company workers liked his films．
B．Because he was a famous person．
C．Because he advertised its brand in public．
D．Because he marked its products in films．

In the field of engineering,men hold most of the jobs.But DiscoverE wanted to change that.On February 25, DiscoverE,known as the National Engineers Week Foundation,celebrated its annual Girl Day.

Although women fill close to half of all jobs in the US economy,they hold less than 25% in the fields of science, technology,engineering,and math (STEM),according to the US Department of Commerce.The agency also reported women hold a low share of college degrees in these fields,particularly in engineering.

With such a large gender gap in STEM jobs,DiscoverE wanted to demonstrate to girls the different fields available to them.It also intended to disclose the various myths that may be causing girls to shy away from this line of work.Valecia Maclin,a director of Raytheon,a technology company and one of DiscoverE's corporate partners, addressed the three most common myths about engineers.

Myth # 1: Engineers aren't creative.

According to Maclin,the opposite is true."Engineers need to be very creative in order to solve problems," she says.And girls,Maclin adds,are great at problem solving.

Myth # 2: You'll be the only girl in your engineering class.

Maclin admits there're usually very few girls in engineering classes.Such was the case in her own experience, but rarely will there be only one girl in the class.She believes this can work in favor of girls.

Myth # 3 :You'll get paid less than the male engineers.

According to the US Department of Labor,women working full time only make about 79% of what men earn. However,STEM careers are in such high demand that even starting salaries are high. "In engineering,your performance is the driving force behind what you get paid,regardless of your gender," Maclin says.

1.Why did DiscoverE celebrate its annual Girl Day?

A. It wanted to change that.

B. It encouraged girls to take up engineering occupations.

C. It inspired girls to quit more STEM jobs.

D. It suggested that women working full time only made about 79 % of what men earned.

2.What possible myths did Maclin put forward that might cause girls to shy away from engineering?

a.Engineers aren't creative.

b.Women hold less than 25 % of jobs in the fields of STEM.

c.You'll be the only girl in your engineering class.

d.Your performance leads to your salary.

e.You'll get paid less than the male engineers.

A. abc B. acd

C. bcd D. ace

3.What can be learned about gender gap in STEM jobs?

A. Both men and women hold jobs in the fields of STEM.

B. More than three quarters of men hold STEM jobs.

C. Less than 25 % of women hold college degrees in engineering.

D. The agency also reported women hold a low share of college degrees.

4.What does Valecia Maclin mean with regard to engineering?

A. Men should hold most of the jobs.

B. Women working full time should make about 79 % of what men earn.

C. Engineering is more suitable for girls than boys.

D. Engineering is suitable for not only boys but also girls.
