The wallet was filled with so many coins that the beggar's hands began to __29__. “Ah, if only the golden stream would __30__ forever! Just a little more，” said the beggar, “__31__ just a handful or tw o.”
“There! It's full. The wallet will __32__ .” warned the Goddess, but the beggar requested, “It will __33__ a little more, just a little more.”

【要点综述】一个沿街乞讨的乞丐遇到了财富女神，财富女神给了乞丐许多金币，同时告诫乞丐，金币掉到地上则化为灰尘。贪婪的乞丐不听劝告，导致金币撑破钱包化为灰尘，乞丐又变得一无所有。故事告诫人们面对金钱不要贪得无厌。
16．D根据第一段最后一句，为什么那些人如此有钱却从不满足，还想得到更多。可知乞丐对此百思不得其解，“keep wondering”(一直想知道)符合句意。
17．B还想得到更多，所以不满足，B项符合句意。
18．C由常识可知，乞丐最重要的是要解决吃和穿的问题。eat(吃)对应下面提到的“穿”，符合语境。learn学习；watch看，观察；play游戏；均不符合语境。
19．A根据第一段，乞丐在沿街乞讨，所以财富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合语境。bridge桥；yard院子；forest森林；均不符合语境。
20．C根据下文，“打开你的钱包，我要给你一些金子”，可知财富女神在帮助乞丐。所以选help，意为：帮助。praise表扬；forgive原谅；comfort安慰；均不符合语境。
21．D根据第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有进入你钱包的都是纯金)可知乞丐打开的是一个钱包，所以选wallet，意为“钱包”。
22．D只有在这种条件下，“我”才会去做。“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold; but every piece falling upon the________shall become dust”指上文提到的这种条件。condition“条件、状况”，符合句意。
23．C句意：每一枚金币掉到地上都会变成尘土。ground(地面)符合语境。
24．A根据下文财富女神告诫乞丐不要装得太重，提醒乞丐注意、当心。所以选look out。look after照顾；look up仰视，向上看；look down俯视。
25．C上文中“With an old wallet in his hand”表明这是一个旧钱包，所以选worn，意思是：用旧的。
26．B could hardly wait to do sth.意为：迫不及待做某事。句意：激动的乞丐早已迫不及待地想拿到金子。
27．A根据倒数第三段中提到“golden stream”可知答案。
28．C通过乞丐告诉财富女神钱包现在还很结实，可知不要为钱包担心。Never fear.不要害怕。29．D句意：钱包装了如此多的金币，乞丐的手开始发抖。shake(发抖)符合语境。spread伸展；close关闭；loose放松；均不符合语境。
30．A乞丐希望金子源源不断地流出，四个选项中只有pour(流出)能形象地描绘出乞丐的贪婪。
31．B对应前文的“Just a little more，”可知，这里表达的意思是：贪婪的乞丐想再往钱包中多装一两把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿，携带；lend借出；send发送；均不符合语境。最后一段的第一句话也有原词复现：One more piece was added and the wallet split。
32．B钱包已经装满了，而且是一个旧钱包，继续装可能会裂开。所以选burst“破裂”。下文中的“split”为同义词复现。
33．D贪婪的乞丐认为钱包还能多装一点。hold“容纳”，符合语境。
34．C treasure(财宝)这里指代金币。钱包破裂后金币自然会掉到地上。present礼物；food 食物；metal金属；均不符合句意。
35．A句意：贪婪的乞丐除了破裂的钱包一无所有。nothing什么也没有。

高考英语完型填空专题练习及答案
完形填空练习 【考点分析】主要考查语法知识、单词拼写能力和逻辑推理能力等，对基础相对薄弱的学生，尤其是英语语法基础相对薄弱的学生有一定的难度。 【复习策略】掌握句子的基本结构 首先，我们必须熟练掌握简单句的基本句型结构： （1）主语+谓语（+宾语+宾补） （2）主语+系动词+表语 其次，我们要充分了解充当各个句子成分的典型词类： （1）充当主语或宾语的典型词类是名词或代词。此外，还有动名词、不定式短语等。 （2）充当谓语的一定是动词。 （3）充当补语或表语的典型词类是形容词。 （4）在名词前作定语的典型词类是形容词或形容词性物主代词。 （5）作状语的典型词类是副词。 再次，我们还要掌握句子的扩展结构：两个或几个简单句之间若不用句号或分号，就必须要用连词，否则，句子的结构就不完整。连词主要有以下四类： （1）用and,but,or,while(而，却)，when（就在这个时候）等构成并列句。用if,unless,before,after,until,although,though,as,since,because,so,so that 等构成含状语从句的复合句（这里要注意区分一下复杂句和复合句，复合句是包含在复杂句这个概念里面的,在下文的基础写作部分有提到）。 （3）用who,which,that,when,where,why等构成含定语从句的复合句。（这里要提醒考生的是往往不给任何提示的空就是填连词或关系词的，但也须结合句子
结构来分析。） （4）用that,if/whether(是否)，wh-等构成含名词性从句的复合句。 【解题方法】用句子结构分析法巧解语法填空.分析句子的结构对解答语法填空题很有帮助。在解答语法填空题时，分析句子结构可以迅速确定所要填的词语的词类或大致方向，若再结合语境就可以很快得出具体的词语或词形，结合语境方面要特别注意短文的时态和上下文中的一些提示。 【经典例题】阅读下面短文，根据上下文填入适当的词语，或使用括号中的词语的适当形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡上标号的相应位置。 The Internet has become part of young people’s life. ____1____ report shows that 38% of students often use the Internet .

(完整)历届高考英语完形填空全国卷
高考完形填空专项训练步步高 抓好三方面●跨好三大步●做好三结合 ------谈完形填空解题技巧中学生在做完形填空题时存在的问题，概括起来有以下三方面： 1.不善于抓文章的主旨大意，并以此为中心展开对整篇文章的推理、判断，导致理解上出现偏差，甚至和文章的中心相悻。 2.容易受定势思维的影响，对文意分析不透，忽视特定语境中知识的运用。 3.对完形填空题怀有厌倦、畏惧心理，以至做题时处于应付状态，做题能力得不到提高。 那么，怎样才能提高做完形填空题的能力呢？我们应从以下三方面入手训练思维能力和解题技巧：抓准主旨、透析文意、理清逻辑。并在做题过程中把这三方面与做完形填空的三大步骤“通读、精读、复读”有机结合，明确每步的思维主攻方向。即抓好三方面，跨好三大步，做好三结合。 一、通读短文抓主旨 一般情况下，完形填空短文都不给标题，不容易把握文章的主题和大意。但短文首句通常不设空格，这就为我们窥视文章全貌提供了一个窗口，而尾句往往是文章的总结、结论或点睛之笔，所以抓住开篇启示作用的首句和总结概括性的尾句是必要的。借助于首尾句给予的启示，克服不良心理的影响，满怀信心，全神贯注，目光越过空格，注意能体现文章大意的关键词句，尽力从整体上理解短文大意，这是逐空填词的重要依据和基础。如果一开始就忙于见空填空，势必无法从整体上把握全文概要，无法形成连贯的思路，只见树木不见森林，理解偏离文章的中心，造成顾，此失彼的错误，甚至影响做题速度。 抓住了文章的主旨大意后，我们围绕主旨大意去阅读、预测、推理、判断，往往会收到事半功倍的效果。尤其是一些干扰性强，容易使人犯想当然错误的选项就会迎刃而解。 二、精读短文析文意 在基本抓住文章的主旨后，应逐句精读短文，逐题分析选项，对特定的语境做深人的理解，克服“定势思维”，根据全文大意和词不离句，句不离文的原则，逐项填空。切不可以单纯的词汇辨析或语法角度去做题，而应以能否恰如其分地表达文意作为选择最佳答案的唯一标准。要吃透文意，理解到位，我们应做到以下几点： 1.从上下文的角度考虑，注意其内在联系。就题论题，断章取义，忽视上下文的信息提示是我们常犯的错误。因此我们在做题时要注重暗含的信息提示，找准突破口，确保文意畅通。 2.从词汇意义及用法、惯用法和搭配的角度去考虑，准确判断。NMET完形填空题中考查词汇意义及用法、惯用法和搭配的题目逐年增多，必须结合上下文把握文意，研读

高考英语完形填空专项训练
高考英语完形填空专项训练 一、考点分析 根据德国学者J·Trier的理论，“词可以在一个共同概念的支配下结合在一起形成一个语义场”。语义场中词与词之间的语义关系是相互依存的。意义上相关的词汇出现在同一语篇中，构成以某一话题为中心的词汇链。简言之，任何一篇文章必然是围绕一个话题来论述的，因此，行文中词语的同现或复现现象就不可避免。词汇的复现现象具体指的是某一个词以原词、词形变化后的词、同义词、近义词、反义词、上义词、下义词等形式重复出现在语篇中。根据这个原则，某个空格所对应的答案很可能就是在上下文中复现的相关词，同学们可以依据这些词之间的有机联系来确定答案。现在就以高考真题为例来为同学们呈现如何利用词汇复现规律这一技巧帮助我们在完形填空中做出正确选择。 If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect a deep interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them.

Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.
