14种技巧解尽高考英语完形填空(11)

　　利用平行结构解题

　　平行结构指的是结构相同或相似，意思密切关联，语法一致的句子或词组成串排列的语言现象。这些结构的形式整齐匀称，内容联系紧密。命题者常从平行结构的句式相同或相似这一角度，利用其表现意义的关联或对比这一特点来设空。高考完形填空短文常常会出现这样一些平行结构，掌握这些结构极为相似的句子可大大提高我们的解题效率。如：

　　Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework. They say that it is___51___for children to work at home in their free time. ___52___, they argue that most teachers do not___53___ plan the homework tasks they give to pupils.

　　51. A. unnecessary B. uninteresting C. unfortunate D. unimportant

　　52. A. Nevertheless B. However C. Therefore D. Moreover

　　53. A. considerably B. favorably C. properly D. pleasantly

　　【解析】排比结构由Many people think that...They say that...they argue that...所组成。在意义上表现了人们(学生家长)对学生课业负担过重的抱怨。该结构中所设置的三个空格的正确填入，要求考生首先把握结构所体现的“主题” —— 抱怨作业太多。其次，要求考生理解三句之间在表达意义上的递进关系。即：作业过多“too much homework”;所以，课余学生在家做作业是没必要的“unnecessary”;不仅如此，教师对作业的设计也不合适“not properly”。故答案分别为A、D、C。

　　Companies with low accident rates plan their safety programs, work hard to organize them, and continue working to keep them ___42___ and active.

　　42. A. alive B. vivid C. mobile D. diverse

　　【解析】因空格处与and后面的active是平行的，所以答案为与active意思相近的alive。
