六、阅读补全句子
Spring Festival has just passed. were you excited about getting lucky money and watching the Spring Festival Gala (春节联欢晚会) on TV Spring Festival is a happy time. But do you know how we celebrate it
Whether Chinese or American, everyone enjoys a good holiday. In China, Spring Festival is the most joyous time of year, while many Americans look forward to celebrating the Christmas holiday.
I love a good party so much that I have experienced both Spring Festival and Christmas. I have found they have many differences, as well as a few things in common. Both holidays involve lots of family and great food. When I was in China, I made fresh dumplings during the Spring Festival and waited for my red bags. Unfortunately, my family was back in America so I never got any. Christmas is a lot of fun. In the afternoon, families get together and have a huge meal and talk about all of the gifts they got that day. Usually they eat ham or turkey on Christmas day. On Christmas, many Americans leave gifts under the Christmas tree. Little kids wake up early and open presents.
One of the major differences between the holidays is that Spring Festival also starts the Chinese New Year. So there are many fireworks and parties. When I was in Beijing, I couldn't sleep because there were so many booms (回响) from fireworks. In America, we celebrate the New Year on January 1st and so we save all of our excitement for that day. Another difference is that Christmas is a religious (宗教的) holiday. It celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.

【点睛】1. 通读短文知大意,看整体全面了解
与阅读理解题和其它类型的完形填空一样,首先要通读短文,了解文章的大意.每篇短文段落之间必然承上启下、前呼后应.因此通读全文时要一气呵成,只要能了解短文的大意即可,细节不理解可以跳过.因此,在解题之前通读一遍短文,目的是对文章有个全面的了解,弄清其中心思想和大意.
2. 复读短文抓信息,前后照应巧猜词
在了解文章大意的前提之下再次通读短文,目的是对短文有更进一步的了解.在阅读时要特别注意一篇文章的开头（一般不设空）和结尾,它们能提供主要的信息,帮助了解全文所描述的事件或文章的中心思想.在阅读过程中,要注意上、下文的关系,这对于把握文章的整体意义大有用处.另外,要学会跳读,即对不理解的地方采用暂时回避的方式,待真正理解全文之后再找解决的方法.有些短文填空题,有时出现约 3%~5% 的生词是很正常的,这就要求学生根据构词知识或上、下文的意思加以猜测,来确定它的词义.
3. 反复推敲多分析,慎重答题讲合理
再次通读短文,对留空的句子进行全面的分析,看它在全文中所处的位置、作用和意义.这一遍阅读要求是精心阅读,要留心找出关键词、短语或句子,还要结合所给首字母的提示,进行填写,并注意单词的正确形式.
4. 认真复查全文,把握整体和词形
做完以后,再认真读一遍,检查所填写的单词是否与文章要求相符,文章是否通顺,前后是否呼应,有无句型结构及语法错误.从实际中看,很多学生能够充分利用词首字母和短文内容填写单词,但是,问题往往出现在单词的形式变化上.比如填 q ,要求填写 quickly ,而多数考生只知道填写 quick ,忽略了词性问题.因此,深思熟虑很重要.
