  文章中心:完型填空的命题理论规定,文章的中心思想一般体现在文章首段的首句;有时首段首句其他段落的首句共同表达文章中心思想。因此,在选择具体题目答案前,把握文章中心对于理解文章语句,把握逻辑关系,确定语意衔接提供了足够的信息依据。

  文章首段主题句叙述到The homeless make up a growing percentage of America’s population.无家可归者在美国人口中占越来越大的比例。

  本文的中心思想为 美国无家可归者的问题。

  本文的中心思想为 美国无家可归者的问题。

  本文的中心思想为 美国无家可归者的问题。

  题目解析:

  The homeless make up a growing percentage of America’s population. 1 , homelessness has reached such proportions that local government can’t possibly 2 .

  1.[A]Indeed [B]Likewise [C]Therefore [D]Furthermore

  2.[A]stand [B]cope [C]approve [D]retain

  1. 逻辑关系题 本题目选择逻辑关系词,前后两句的逻辑关系决定答案。句子叙述到The homeless make up a growing percentage of America’s population. ____, homelessness has reached such proportions that…。“无家可归者在美国人口中占越来越大的比例。…无家可归者所占的比例已经达到如此地步,以至于…。”

  选项A. indeed一般表示强调;

  B. likewise 表示与前者相似;选项

  C. therefore因此,强调结果;选项

  D. furthermore进一步说,表示递进。

  不难发现,根据前一句“make up a growing percentage”与后一句“reach such proportion that”确定后者是对前者的例证强调。因此,正确答案为A。

  2. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词在定语从句中充当谓语。句子叙述到homelessness has reached such proportions that local government can’t possibly _____. “无家可归者所占的比例已经达到地方政府都无法…的地步。”

  选项A. stand 忍受;

  B. cope vi. 处理,忍受;

  C. approve 赞成,批准;

  D. retain 保留。

  不难发现,句子中“such proportion that local government can’t …”提供信息确定选择“忍受,承受”之意。选项A. stand 忍受,作为及物动词在句子中要直接连接宾语,但是句子中没有宾语,因此该词不符合句子结构;选项B. cope 处理,忍受,作为不及物动词,在句子中表达完整的含义;选项C. approve赞成,批准,“批准”的应该是文件,句子中提到的是无家可归者的数量问题,不能与“批准”连用;D. retain 保留,显然与“无家可归者的数量”不能构成合理的主谓关系。因此,正确答案为B。

  To help homeless people 3 independence, the federal government must support job training programs, 4 the minimum wage, and fund more low-cost housing.

  3.[A]in [B]for [C]with [D]toward

  4.[A]raise [B]add [C]take [D]keep

  3.词汇辨析题,本题目选择介词,选择介词与句子中的动词有直接关系。句子叙述到To help homeless people ____ independence, the federal government must support job training programs,…. “为帮助无家可归者…独立,联邦政府必须提供就业培训项目…。”

  选项A. in 构成help sb. in doing 帮助某人做某事;

  B. for 构成help sb. for 为…而帮助某人;

  C. with 构成help sb. with sth. 帮助…做事;

  D. toward 构成help sb. toward 帮助…向某个方向发展。

  不难发现,句子中“help homeless people___ independence” 提供信息确定选择“帮助…向某个方向发展”之意。因此,正确答案为D。

  4. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词,所在句子的主语、宾语提供信息决定答案。句子叙述到the federal government must support job training programs, _____ the minimum wage, and fund more low-cost housing. “联邦政府必须提供就业培训项目,…最低工资标准,资助更多低收入家庭。”

  选项A. raise增加,提高;

  B. add加;

  C. take 拿来;

  D. keep保留。

  不难发现,句子中“___the minimum wage”与前面的短语“support job training program提供就业培训项目”和后面的短语“fund more low-cost housing 资助更多低收入家庭”是并列关系,是政府为无家可归者提供的服务。由此提供信息确定选择“提高”之意。选项A. raise增加,提高,“提高最低工资标准”,符合句子含义;选项B. add加,该词指数量的增加,不符合句子含义;选项C. take 拿来,该词不能与“最低工资标准”连用;选项D. keep保留,“保留最低工资标准”,虽然这个短语意义完整,但是不能与前后的政府帮助无家可归者的举动构成并列。因此,正确答案为A。

  5 everyone agrees on the numbers of Americans who are homeless.

  5.[A]generally [B]almost [C]hardly [D]not

  5. 语意辨析题 本题目选择副词,在句子中限定范围。句子叙述到_____everyone agrees on the numbers of Americans who are homeless. “…每个人同意美国无家可归者的数量。”

  选项A. generally 一般来说;

  B. almost 几乎;选项

  C. hardly 几乎不…(常用倒装);

  D. not 置于句首表示部分否定,译为“并不是…”。

  不难发现,由于本题包含反义选项,而上文又没有提示,因此应先把下一句中的第6、7两题做出,本题的答案才会迎刃而解。第6题所在的语境句意为“人们对此的估计数字从六十万到三百万不等”。而第7题又说“尽管这一数字可能不同,分析家们却在另外一件事情上的确达成了一致意见”。因此,本题答案应选D. Not,本句意思为“关于美国无家可归者的数量,众说不一”。

  Estimates 6 anywhere from 600,000 to 3 million. __7__ the figure may vary, analysts do agree on another matter: that the number of the homeless is__8__.

  6.[A]cover [B]change [C]range [D]differ

  7.[A]Now that [B]Although [C]Provided [D]Except that

  8.[A]inflating [B]expanding [C]increasing [D]extending

  6. 词汇辨析题 句子中的主语、宾语以及介词决定所选择的动词。句子叙述到Estimates ____ anywhere from 600,000 to 3 million. “估计数字…60万到3百万之间。”

  选项A. cover覆盖、包括;

  B. change改变、变化;

  C. range在某范围中变化;

  D. differ不同。

  不难发现, 句子中要选择动词与 “from 600,000 to 3 million”构成搭配,句子提供信息确定选择“在…范围”之意。选项A. cover覆盖、包括,不能与 “from…to…”构成搭配;选项B. change改变、变化,该词所指的变化是无规律的变化,当然就不涉及在范围内变化的含义;选项C. range在某范围中变化,符合语句含义;选项D. differ不同,一般组成 “differ from…”短语,译为“与…不同”,不符合句子含义。因此,正确答案为C。

  7. 逻辑关系题 本题目选择逻辑关系词,前后两句的逻辑关系决定答案。____ the figure may vary, analysts do agree on another matter:… “…(人们估计的)数字不同,分析家们对另一个问题的意见还是完全一致的。”

  选项A. Now that既然;

  B. Although虽然…但是;

  C. Provided 假设;

  D. Except 除去。

  不难发现,本题所在的语境句中,前文中的may vary与后文中的do agree互为反义,确定二者为转折让步关系。因此,正确答案为B,句子译为“虽然(人们估计的)数字不同,分析家们对另一个问题的意见还是完全一致的”。

  8. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词的现在分词形式,句子中的主语提供信息决定答案。Although the figure may vary, analysts do agree on another matter: that the number of the homeless is______. “虽然(人们估计的)数字不同,分析家们对另一个问题的意见还是完全一致的:无家可归者的人数正在…。”

  选项A. inflating 膨胀;

  B. expanding发展、扩张;

  C. increasing增加;

  D. extending扩充、扩大。

  不难发现,句子中“the number of homeless is___” 提供信息确定选择“增加,膨胀”之意。选项A. inflating 膨胀,超过既定标准(尤指通货膨胀);选项B. expanding发展、扩张,体积增大;选项C. increasing增加,指数量增加;选项D. extending扩充、扩大,指形状变化、拉伸。因此,正确答案为C。语境句意为“无家可归者的数量一直在增加”。

  One of the federal government’s studies __9__ that the number of the homeless will reach nearly 19 million by the end of this decade.

  9.[A]predicts [B]displays [C]proves [D]discovers

  9. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词,句子中的主语、宾语提供信息决定答案。句子叙述到One of the federal government’s studies ____ that the number of the homeless will reach nearly 19 million by the end of this decade. “联邦政府的一项研究…无家可归者的数量在近十年内将会达到大约1900万。”选择动词,主语和宾语提供信息确定答案。

  选项A. predicts预测、预计;

  B. displays展示;

  C. proves证明;

  D. discovers发现。

  不难发现,句子中“that the number of the homeless will reach nearly 19 million by the end of this decade. 无家可归者的数量在近十年内将会达到大约1900万。” “近十年会达到1900万”表达未来的状况,确定选择“预测”之意。因此,正确答案为A。

  Finding ways to __10__ this growing homeless population has become increasingly difficult. __11__when homeless individuals manage to find a __12__ that will give them three meals a day and a place to sleep at night, a good number still spend the bulk of each day__13__ the street.

  10.[A]assist [B]track [C]sustain [D]dismiss

  11.[A]Hence [B]But [C]Even [D]Only

  12.[A]lodging [B]shelter [C]dwelling [D]house

  13.[A]searching [B]strolling [C]crowding [D]wandering

  10. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词,句子中的宾语提供信息决定答案。句子叙述到Finding ways to ____ this growing homeless population has become increasingly difficult. “想办法…这些日益增加的无家可归者这一任务变得非常困难.”

  选项A. assist帮助;

  B. track追踪;

  C. sustain承受、支持、供养;

  D. dismiss解散。

  不难发现, 本文前两段提出无家可归者的问题并略加分析,本段开始解决方法的探讨。句子提供信息确定选择“帮助”之意。选项A. assist帮助,“想办法帮助这些日益增加的无家可归者这一任务变得非常困难”,符合句子含义,符合文章中心;选项B. track追踪,,“想办法追踪这些日益增加的无家可归者这一任务变得非常困难”,不符合句子含义;选项C. sustain承受、支持、供养,“想办法支持这些日益增加的无家可归者这一任务变得非常困难”,符合句子含义,但是与上文的内容“政府提供相关计划帮助无家可归者”却没有联系;选项D. dismiss解散,,“想办法帮助这些日益增加的无家可归者这一任务变得非常困难”,符合句子含义,但是与上文的内容“政府提供相关计划帮助无家可归者”却没有联系。因此,正确答案为A。

  11. 逻辑关系题 本题目选择逻辑关系词,体现前后两句的逻辑关系。句子叙述到___when homeless people individuals manage to find a ___that will give them three meals a day and a place to sleep at night, a good number still spend the bulk of each day ___ the street. “…当无家可归者找到…能提供一日三餐,晚上能睡觉,还是有很多人每天大部分时间…街头。”

  选项A. Hence 因此;

  B. But 但是;

  C. Even即使;

  D. Only 仅仅。

  不难发现,前、后句子之间体现出让步关系。选项A. Hence 因此,表示因果关系,与本句逻辑关系不符;选项B. But 但是,表示转折关系,与本句逻辑关系不符;选项C. Even即使,表示让步关系,与本句逻辑关系相符,句子译为“当无家可归者找到地方能提供一日三餐,晚上能睡觉,还是有很多人每天大部分时间流浪街头”;选项D. Only 仅仅,表示递进关系,与本句逻辑关系不符。因此,正确答案为C。

  12. 词汇/语法结构辨析题 本题目选择名词,同时这个名词由定语从句来修饰。句子叙述到even when homeless people individuals manage to find a ___that will give them three meals a day and a place to sleep at night, “即使无家可归者最终能够找到一个…,可以给他们提供一日三餐和夜里睡觉的地方”。

  选项A. lodging寄宿处;

  B. shelter庇护所、避难所;

  C. dwelling住处;

  D. house房屋。

  不难发现,定语从句“that will give them three meals a day and a place to sleep at night 能够提供一日三餐和晚上睡觉的场所”确定选择“庇护所或避难所”之意。选项A. lodging寄宿处,因为无家可归者人数众多,找到寄宿的地方不合常理;选项B. shelter庇护所、避难所,符合句子含义;C. dwelling住处,指正常的居住场所,显然与无家可归者的景况不符;D. house房屋,显然无家可归者找到正规的居家之房屋不符合常理。因此,正确答案为B。

  13. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词的现在分词,在句子中充当宾语补足语。句子叙述到a good number still spend the bulk of each day__ _ the street. “很多人仍然每天大部分时间…街头。”

  选项A. searching搜寻;

  B. strolling漫步、闲逛;

  C. crowing拥挤;

  D. wandering游荡、徘徊、流浪。

  不难发现,无家可归者是流浪街头的。选项A. searching 搜寻,不符合句子含义;选项B. strolling 漫步、闲逛,指悠闲自在的走,显然不符合句子含义;选项C. crowing 拥挤,该词是不及物动词,不能直接连用名词;选项D. wandering 流浪,符合句子含义。因此,正确答案为D。

  Part of the problem is that many homeless adults are addicted to alcohol or drugs. And a significant number of the homeless have serious mental disorders. Many others, __14__not addicted or mentally ill, simply lack the everyday __15__ skills needed to turn their lives __16__.

  14.[A]when [B]once [C]while [D]whereas

  15.[A]life [B]existence [C]survival [D]maintenance

  16.[A]around [B]over [C]on [D]up

  14. C 逻辑关系题 本题目选择连词,体现句子之间的逻辑关系。句子叙述到Many others,___ not addicted or mentally ill, simply lack the everyday ___skills needed to turn their lives ___. “其他许多人,…既不吸毒,也没有精神障碍,他们却缺乏使自己生活变…的日常…技巧”选项A. when 当…时候;

  B. once一旦;

  C. while表示转折关系,意为“尽管”;

  D. whereas表示对比关系。

  不难发现,句子中“即不吸毒也不饮酒”与“缺乏日常技巧”构成转折关系。因此,正确答案为C。

  15. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择名词,句子中的宾语名词决定所选择的定语(名词)。句子叙述到simply lack the everyday ___skills needed to turn their lives ___. “就是缺乏让自己生活变…的…技巧”。

  选项A. life生活、生命;

  B. existence存在;

  C. survival生存、存活;

  D. maintenance维护、坚持、生活费用。

  不难发现,“everyday日常的”提供信息确定是一种生活、生存技巧。尤其是过去分词短语“needed to turn their lives ___.”确定选择“生存”之意。选项A. life skills 生活技巧,指生活中的一些常识或者窍门等,与句子含义不符;选项B. existence skill存在技巧,没有该短语搭配;选项C. survival skill 生存技巧,符合句子含义;选项D. maintenance skills 维护技巧,与句子含义不符。因此,正确答案为C。

  16. 固定搭配题 本题目选择与turn构成的短语。句子叙述到to turn their lives ___. “使生活变….” 不难发现,这里表达“出现转机”之意。选项A. around ,turn around(使)逆转、(使)出现转机;选项B. over ,turn over仔细考虑、移交;选项C. on ,turn on打开开关;选项D. up ,turn up调大、开大、出现。因此,正确答案为A。

  Boston Globe reporter Chris Reidy notes that the situation will improve only when there are _17__ programs that address the many needs of the homeless.

  17.[A]complex [B]comprehensive [C]complementary [D]compensating

  17. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择形容词,在句子中充当定语,被修饰的名词决定所选择的定语。Boston Globe reporter Chris Reidy notes that the situation will improve only there are ___programs that address the many needs of the homeless. “波斯顿环球日报记者克里斯雷迪认为只有通过…规划才能解决这些无家可归者的各种需求,这种局面才有可能得到改善。”

  选项A. complex复杂的;

  B. comprehensive综合的、的;

  C. complementary补充的、互补的;

  D. compensating补偿的。

  不难发现,句子中空格后面定语从句中的many一词;由于要满足无家可归者的许多要求(many needs of the homeless),所以这份计划应该是考虑周全、无所不包的。选项A. complex复杂的,“复杂的计划”与“解决这些无家可归者的各种需求”没有直接联系;选项B. comprehensive综合的、的,“的计划”与“解决这些无家可归者的各种需求”直接关联,符合句子含义;选项C. complementary补充的、互补的,,“互补的的计划”,句子中只提到一种计划,何谈“互补”;选项D. compensating补偿的,,“补偿的计划”与“解决这些无家可归者的各种需求”没有直接联系。因此,正确答案为B。

  __18__ Edward Zlotkowski, director of community service at Bentley College in Massachusetts, _19__it, “There has to be _20 _of programs. What we need is a package deal.”

  18.[A]So [B]Since [C]As [D]Thus

  19.[A]puts [B]interprets [C]assumes [D]makes

  20.[A]supervision [B]manipulation [C]regulation [D]coordination

  18. 逻辑关系题 本题目选择逻辑关系词,前后两句的逻辑关系决定答案。句子叙述到_____Edward Zlotkowski, director of community service at Bentley College in Massachusetts, ____it, “There has to be _____of programs. What we need is a package deal. 像马塞诸塞州本特里学院社区服务部主任Edward Zlotkowski所…的:“各种项目必须…运行,我们需要的是一揽子计划”。

  选项A. So 因此(因果关系,强调结果);

  B. Since既然(因果关系);

  C. As 正如(引导非限制性定语从句,与前文表示层进关系);

  D. Thus 因而(因果关系)。

  不难发现,前面句子叙述到Boston Globe reporter Chris Reidy notes that the situation will improve only there are comprehensive programs that address the many needs of the homeless. “波斯顿环球日报记者克里斯雷迪认为只有通过的规划才能解决这些无家可归者的各种需求,这种局面才有可能得到改善。”本句叙述到“像马塞诸塞州本特里学院社区服务部主任Edward Zlotkowski所说的…我们需要的是一揽子计划”。显然二者为层进关系,强调递进。因此,正确答案为C。

  19. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择动词,在句子中充当谓语动词。句子中的主语和宾语决定所选择的动词。句子叙述到Edward Blotkowsk___ it,“There has to be ___of programs. What we need is a package deal.” 提供信息确定选择“表达,说明”之意。选项A. puts口语中和正式场合宣讲是表示“说”;选项B. interprets口译,解释;选项C. assumes认为;选项D. makes 制造。因此,正确答案为A。

  20. 词汇辨析题 本题目选择名词,句子中的所有格关系决定所选名词。句子叙述到There has to be ___of programs. What we need is a package deal. “各种项目必须…运行,我们需要的是一揽子计划。”

  选项A. supervision 监督、管理;

  B. manipulation 操作、处理;

  C. regulation 管理、调整;

  D. coordination协调。

  不难发现,句子中“一揽子计划”提供的信息确定选择“协调”之意。选项A. supervision监督、管理,与句子含义不符;选项B. manipulation操作、处理,与句子含义不符;选项C. regulation管理、调整,与句子含义不符;选项D. coordination协调。综合前文中的comprehensive programs that address the many needs of the homeless(应对无家可归者多方面需求的综合性计划)和后文中的a package deal(一揽子交易),不难选出与此意接近的coordination。因此,正确答案为D。

  全文翻译无家可归者在美国所占的比例越来越大。而且,无家可归者所占的比例已经大到地方政府都无法应对的地步。为了帮助无家可归者走向独立,联邦政府必须支持就业培训项目,提高最低工资标准和资助修建更多的廉价住房。

  对于美国到底有多少无家可归者,大家的意见并不一致,估计是在60万到3000万之间。尽管人们估计的数字可能各不相同,分析家们对另外一个问题的意见却是一致的:无家可归者的人数正在增长。联邦政府的一项研究预测,在目前这个十年结束之前,无家可归者的数量将接近1900万。

  想办法帮助这些越来越多的无家可归者的任务变得越来越艰巨。即使无家可归者找到了避难所,能提供一日三餐,晚上能睡觉,还是会有很多人每天大部分时间流落街头。部分问题在于许多无家可归的成年人都是酒鬼或者是瘾君子,而且相当多的无家可归者都有严重的精神病。还有许多人虽然不酗酒吸毒,精神也正常,但就是缺乏让自己生活好转的基本能力。《波士顿环球日报》记者克里斯雷迪认为只有通过规划来解决这些无家可归者的各种需求,此局面才有可能得到改善。用马萨诸塞州本特里学院社区服务部主任艾德华泽洛特科瓦斯基的话来说就是:“各种规划必须协调运作,我们需要的是一揽子计划”。

  Text 1

  In spite of “endless talk of difference,” American society is an amazing machine for homogenizing people. This is “the democratizing uniformity of dress and discourse, and the casualness and absence of deference” characteristic of popular culture. People are absorbed into “a culture of consumption” launched by the 19th-century department stores that offered ‘vast arrays of goods in an elegant atmosphere. Instead of intimate shops catering to a knowledgeable elite.” these were stores “anyone could enter, regardless of class or background. This turned shopping into a public and democratic act.” The mass media, advertising and sports are other forces for homogenization.

  Immigrants are quickly fitting into this common culture, which may not be altogether elevating but is hardly poisonous. Writing for the National Immigration Forum, Gregory Rodriguez reports that today’s immigration is neither at unprecedented level nor resistant to assimilation. In 1998 immigrants were 9.8 percent of population; in 1900, 13.6 percent. In the 10 years prior to 1990, 3.1 immigrants arrived for every 1,000 residents; in the 10 years prior to 1890, 9.2 for every 1,000. Now, consider three indices of assimilation------language, home ownership and intermarriage.

  The 1990 Census revealed that “a majority of immigrants from each of the fifteen most common countries of origin spoke English “well” or “very well” after ten years of residence.” The children of immigrants tend to be bilingual and proficient in English. “By the third generation, the original language is lost in the majority of immigrant families.” Hence the description of America as a graveyard” for language. By 1996 foreign-born immigrants who had arrive before 1970 had a home ownership rate of 75.6 percent, higher than the 69.8 percent rate among native-born Americans.

  Foreign-born Asians and Hispanics “have higher rates of intermarriage than do U.S-born whites and blacks.” By the third generation, one third of Hispanic women are married to non-Hispanics, and 41 percent of Asian-American women are married to non-Asians.

  Rodriguez notes that children in remote villages around world are fans of superstars like Amold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks, yet “some Americans fear that immigrants living within the United States remain somehow immune to the nation’s assimilative power.”

  Are there divisive issues and pockets of seething anger in America? Indeed. It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularly when viewed against America’s turbulent past, today’s social indices hardly suggest a dark and deteriorating social environment.
