1、第二节第二节 段中设空题段中设空题 (2019 全国) Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question： “Should I jump？”This is what motivation or the lack of it can do.Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin. 36 Like the child on the diving board，you will stay
2、undecided. 37 More than that， how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal?

DSo why should we try to set specific goals? EThey can change according to circumstances. FMotivation is what you need most to do
7、a good job. GWithout motivation，you can neither set a goal nor reach it. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了动机和目标的关系以及如何激发动机并设定切实 可行的目标。 36答案 G 解析 根据空前一句“Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin.”可知，此 处在讲动力和设定目标之间的关系，故 G 项“没有动力，你既无法设定目标，也无法实现目 标”符合语境。 37答案 B 解析 第一段阐述了动力和设定目标之间的关系，结合空后的“More th
8、an that，how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal？”可知，空处与空后内容形成递进关系，故 B 项符合 语境。 38答案 A 解析 空前讲有时候你的心思并不在工作上，由此可知空处应选 A“这会影响你的工作”。 39答案 E 解析 根据空前一句中的“goals are flexible”可知， 目标是灵活的， 可变动的， 因此 E 项“它 们可以根据情况而改变”符合语境。 40答案 C 解析 空前一句说你可能想当飞行员，但因为视力不够好，你的目标不能实现。再结合空后 一句中的“reassess your goals.set a fr
9、esh goal”可知，C 项“然而，这不应该让你气馁”符合 语境。 一、题型解读 段中设空即主题句的展开句。 尤其注意分析空格前后的逻辑关系和行文逻辑及内容的连贯性， 注意各句间的衔接手段。其特点主要是以转折手法引出主题句，或者是用来承上启下的过渡 句，也可能是补充前文具体的事实、事例和说明。 二、解题技巧 1根据并列或递进关系解题 并列或递进关系主要指行文中后句对前句是一种顺承逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间有 first(第一)，second(第二)，third(第三)；firstly(第一，首先)，secondly(第二，其次)，thirdly(第 三)；first(首先)，next(
10、其次)，then(那么，然后)；in the first place(第一，首先)，for another(其 次)；to begin with(首先，第一)，to conclude(最后)等连接词或词组，则表明前后两句是逻辑 上的并列关系，空格处很有可能是个并列的句子。 如果空格前后两句之间有 also(也，而且)，further(进一步地，而且)，furthermore(而且，此外)， likewise(同样地，也)，similarly(相似地，类似地)，moreover(而且，此外)，in addition(另外)， whats more(更重要的是)，not only.but also
11、(不但而且)等连接词或词组，则表明前后两 句是逻辑上的递进关系，空格处很有可能是个递进的句子。 例如：真题感悟中的第 36 题。 该空上一句“Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin.”提到了 motivation 和 goal setting 之间的关系。 所以下文中肯定要进一步讲解两者 之间的关系。G 项“没有动力，你既无法设定目标，也无法实现目标”符合语境。 再如第 39 题。由该空前一句“Remember that goals are flexible.”可知，设空处需要谈到 goals 的情况。下文中
12、的“They also need to be measurable.”说明目标需要有可衡量性。所以设空处 应该以目标作为主语， 讲述目标的特性， 所以选择 E 项， 意为“它们可以根据情况而改变。 ” 2根据转折或让步关系解题 转折或让步关系主要指行文中后句对前句构成逆转逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间有 however(然而)，nevertheless(然而，不过)，still(还，仍然)，though(尽管)，yet(然而)，on the contrary(正相反)，in contrast(与此相反，相比之下)，in comparison(比较起来，与比较)， by comparison(
13、相比之下)等连接词或词组，则表明前后两句话是逻辑上的逆转，空格处很有 可能表示转折或让步关系。 例如：真题感悟中第 40 题。上文提到了“你可能想当飞行员，但因视力不够好，你无法实 现目标”， 设空处后文提到“你应该重新审视你的目标， 并激励自己去设定一个新的目标”。 所以设空处应该与上文形成转折关系。C 项含有转折词 however。由此可知，选 C。 3根据因果关系解题 如果空格前后两句之间出现 as a result(结果)， thus/therefore(因此)， so/such.that(如此 以至于)等标志性词语，则表明前后句有着因果关系。 例如：真题感悟中第 38 题。该空上一句
14、提到“有时你的心思不在工作上”，及该空后一句 “所以，放慢脚步，想想你那时真正想做的是什么”，由此可知设空处应填“心思不在工作 上的”后果。A 项“这会影响你的工作”符合语境。 4根据解释例证关系解题 前后句的某一句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式具有多样性，用到的思维过程就 是基本的归纳(从例子到观点)和演绎(从观点到例子)。 A (2019 湖南衡阳联考) Finding 7spare change or an extra dollar in your pocket always feels like a victory. 1 Without thinking，you might h
15、ear the familiar rhyme in your head when you spot one on the sidewalk：“Find a penny，pick it up.All day long youll have good luck.” According to one theory，people originally thought pennies would bring good luck because of religious beliefs. 2 This theory also 8fueled other superstitions(迷信行为) like c
16、harm bracelets and metal horseshoes，which are also “lucky”Plus，metal currency like pennies were linked to more wealth and thus more luck.That might be a straightforward explanation. 9Another reason why people might have 1claimed pennies would bring good luck comes down to the battle between good and
17、 evil，which is like two sides of the coin.Finding a penny heads up meant youd have luck on your side，but tails up would mean the opposite. 3 Some people say that if you find a penny tails up，you should turn it over to make it heads up so that it can bring luck to whoever finds it next. 4 The Irish h
18、alf- penny，which stopped 2circulating in 1987，is especially lucky to anyone who finds one.Then there is also the old saying “Something old， something new，something borrowed，something blue，and a penny in the shoe.” 5 APennies From Heaven is a way of thinking. BBut the exact reasoning for this is unkn
19、own. CAnd even finding something worth as little as a penny is satisfying. DNo matter what the reason is，pennies are part of many lucky traditions.

GFolktales from ancient civilizations said metals were gifts from gods intended to protect people from evil. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了硬币会带来好运背后的习俗与文化。 1答案 C 解析 根据本空前的“Finding spare change or an extra dollar in your pocket always feels like a victory.”可知，在口袋里发现多余的零钱或额外的一美元感觉好像一场胜利
21、，本空后又提到 了“a penny”，故 C 项(甚至发现像一便士那么少的钱也能让人满意)符合语境。 2答案 G 解析 根据本空前的“people originally thought pennies would bring good luck because of religious beliefs”可知，由于宗教信仰，人们起初认为硬币能带来好运，故 G 项(古代文明中 的民间故事说，金属是神的礼物，旨在保护人们免受邪恶的伤害)符合语境。 3答案 B 解析 前面提到“如果你发现的硬币正面朝上则意味着好运，反面朝上则相反”，本空应该 解释原因。再根据本空后一句“有人说如果你发现硬币背面朝上，就
22、把它翻过来，让它正面 朝上， 这样它就会给下一个发现它的人带来好运”， 故 B 项(但是具体原因还不清楚)符合语境。 4答案 D 解析 根据本空后的“The Irish half- penny，which stopped circulating in 1987，is especially lucky to anyone who finds one.”可知，爱尔兰的半便士硬币于 1987 年停止流通，对于任何发 现它的人来说都是特别幸运的，故 D 项(不管原因是什么，硬币是许多幸运传统的一部分)， 承上启下，符合语境。 5答案 F 解析 根据本空前的“Something old，somethin
23、g new，something borrowed，something blue， and a penny in the shoe.”可知，一些旧的东西、一些新的东西、一些借来的东西，一些蓝色 的东西，还有鞋里的一枚硬币，根据常识，这些东西是美国婚俗中的一部分，故 F 项(这些都 是新娘在婚礼当天要穿戴的东西，以祈求婚姻美满)符合语境。 B Do you like writing a few paragraphs every day about your experiences，hopes，memories or feelings? If you dont，its time to make a
