点评 完形填空解题技巧:一、做完形填空时,要始终抓住文章本身,联系"双语境"来判断,既大语境--全文中心和基调,小语境--空格前后句子所构成的语境;再根据前有伏笔后有呼应的思路来做题.二、在完形填空题中,but 一词前后通常会设题.文中一出现but,应该马上想到前后语意有转折,只要知道其中一方的语意,就可以推出另一方的意思,所以在做题时,遇到类似but的词,如:however,nevertheless,whereas,yet等,也可以同样处理,以便于从文中找到解题的依据.三、绝对矛盾法是从选项着手分析,若四个选项中有两个选项是绝对矛盾和对立,那么正确选项大多在这两个对立项之间产生.二者必居其一.至于究竟是两者中的哪一个,则需要进一步根据上下文的语境来判断.四、同义复现是英语中常见的一种现象.为强调某一意思,但又不想重复使用某个词或短语.在完形填空题中,同义词或同义短语的位置多半比较靠近,很容易找到,所以同义复现法是很好的解题技巧.无须过多的推理,只需确定是哪里使用了同义复现,然后从选项中找出与之相符合的一项即可.

18.Lighthouses are remainders from the past that ships and sailors once sought in order to navigate dangerous U.S.coastal waters.But today,those remaining ones have fallen mostly into disuse,except as tourist attractions and old reminders of a romantic period.The U.S.Coast Guard and the U.S.Lighthouse Society say there are about 600lighthouses remaining in the U.S.,and some of those are at risk,having suffered from years of neglect (忽略).
Dave Eshbaugh of the Oregon State Parks Trust,believes in preserving them."They are worth saving.I think it would be disrespectful to our history and people to let them fall down and go away."
Preservation societies in several states are attempting to keep lighthouses from disappearing. And the U.S.Congress is trying to help.In 2000,lawmakers passed the Lighthouse Preservation Act that lets the Coast Guard transfer ownership of lighthouses,at no cost,to public and private organizations.Local,state and federal agencies also can benefit from the act.
Some private citizens also are helping to restore abandoned lighthouses.Steve and Michelle Bursey own the Heceta Head Lighthouse.It is not just their home,but also their livelihood.
Not far from the lighthouse is the lighthouse keeper's house.The Burseys have changed it into a bed and breakfast inn.They say the income from their business pays for the necessary repairs that keep the lighthouse in condition.Michelle says it is a labor of love."We have to constantly put hours and hours of time and labor into making it shine."
Aside from making Heceta Head their home and business,the Burseys have a great appreciation for the history and the importance associated with their lighthouse.
"It's important to keep them up,"says Steve."Once they're gone,you can never bring them back."They are vivid reminders of a previous times and a way of life that people like Steve and Michelle Bursey think are worth preserving.They are part of America's history,its legend,and its
sailing past.

3.With the summer holiday just around the corner,it seems like everybody is busy planning their vacations.Here are some tips that can help you enjoy your holiday without emptying your pocket:
Travel off-season
Go to your desired destination while the demand is low and take advantage of huge discounts.During the peak season,the hotel and flight prices increase quickly,and you'll likely spend more of your vacation time standing in line due to the rush of tourists.(36)D
(37)A
Websites can help you find discount hotel rooms.Look for places that do not charge extra for children if they use the existing bedding.Stay with the locals.If you and your family are going to stay for a longer period,renting a small apartment is a good choice.
Eat like a local
Why eat at big chain restaurants when you can experience something new?(38)EDuring your family trip,try new food where the locals eat.This will not just save money,but also provide you with a new and different experience.For smaller meals and snacks,avoid restaurants and try street food or other takeout.
Don't hesitate to bargain
Tourist-heavy places are known for overcharging for just about everything.Clothes,travel goodies,souvenirs,etc.are very expensive at these places.(39)F Bargain hard to get the best price.
Choose local transportation
(40)G Instead,take buses,railways or subways,which are always cheaper.If you are planning to stay for a while,you can consider renting a car.Hiring a car is much easier than carrying your bags everywhere if you are moving around a lot.
A.Save on hotels.
B.Surf the Internet while traveling.
C.Therefore,avoid buying anything there.
D.So it's best to find out when the off-season starts.
E.Planning your meals is another way to reduce your travel costs.
F.For this reason,you shouldn't feel ashamed to ask for bargains.
G.As a tourist,avoid taking taxis whenever possible,since they are expensive.
12.A Dangerous Journey

  On July 2,1937,Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan left New Guinea for Howland Island in the Pacific.This was the longest and most dangerous part of their trip around the world.Earhart had trouble shortly after takeoff.The weather was stormy,so she had to fly at 3,000 meters (10,000 feet).Going this high,the plane used gas quickly.
  After about twenty hours,Earhart and Noonan approached Howland Island.The island was only about 105 kilometers (65 miles) away,but the bright sun was shining in their faces so they couldn't see it.Near Howland,a ship,the Itasca,was waiting.Earhart contacted the ship:"Gas is low,"she said.The Itasca tried to maintain contact with her but got no response.Finally,the Itasca called for help.People searched for Earhart and Noonan for days.Despite the searchers'efforts,they found nothing.
Missing!
  What happened to Amelia Earhart?No one knows for sure.During the flight,she probably headed in the wrong direction because the sun was bright and it was hard to see.So she got lost; soon after,her plane ran out of gas,and she died at sea.Another idea is that she survived the plane crash,swam to an uninhabited (无人居住的) island,and later died there.Still others think she survived the crash and secretly returned to the U.S.with a new identity.
  Although the first theory seems most likely,none of these ideas has been proven.Today,people are still looking into Earhart's and Noonan's disappearance.(Noonan's body has also never been found.) Whatever happened,Amelia probably died as she wished."When I go,"she said,"I'd like best to go in my plane."

46.Why was flying to Howland Island difficult?D
A.Earhart was sick after takeoff.
B.The sun was too bright and shining.
C.Their plane was damaged.
D.It was very far from New Guinea.
47.Which statement would the writer most probably agree with?A
A.Amelia's plane probably ran out of gas and she died at sea.
B.It is possible that Fred Noonan killed Amelia Earhart.
C.Amelia Earhart probably died on an island in the Pacific.
D.Fred Noonan might still be alive today.
48.What does the underlined word"go"in the last paragraph mean?C
A.fly                             
B.leave                      
C.die                          
D.travel.
13.Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever,even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started.Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country.(51)B,according to an official report on youth violence,"in our country today,the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment,but the terrible reality of violence".Given that this is the case,why aren't students taught to manage (52)A the way they are taught to solve math problems or stay physically fit?
First of all,students need to realize that conflict is (53)D.A report indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor (54)C.For example,a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. (55)D
Dthe sandwich can lead to insults,which in turn can lead to violence.The problem isn't in the sandwich,but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable,they can (56)B the golden rule of conflict resolution:stay calm.Once the student feels calmer,he should choose words that will calm the other person down as well.Rude words and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fire.On the other hand,(57)A words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down,they can use another key(58)B for conflict resolution:listening.Listening allows the two sides to understand each other.One person should describe his or her side,and the other person should listen without interrupting.Afterward,the listener can ask non-threatening questions to make the speaker's position clear.Then the two people should change (59)C.
(60)D,students need to consider what they are hearing.This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person.It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to (61)A.For example,a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things.Students need to ask themselves questions such as these:How did this start?What do I really want?What am I afraid of?As the issue becomes (62)B,the conflict often simply becomes smaller.Even if it doesn't,(63)D thought helps both sides figure out a better solution.
After students started a conflict resolution,there has been an increase in student (64)A.Learning to resolve conflicts can help students(65)C friends,teachers,parents,bosses and coworkers.In that way,conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
