考点：考查夹叙夹议类阅读

【名师点睛】

夹叙夹议文体就是一方面叙述某一事情，一方面又对此事加以分析与评论。这种表达方式中的叙与议是一个有机的整体，“叙”是“议”的基础，即议论不能脱离记叙，必须在记叙的基础上展开；“议”是“叙”的渗透，即议论在记叙的基础上发展，且有一定的深度与广度。二者水乳交融，互为一体。这种文体的语言既有记叙文的特点：借助叙述、描写、抒情等手段记叙社会生活中的人、事、景、物的情态及其发展过程，用以表现作者思想，抒发作者情感；时态以一般过去时为主，其他时态为辅；广泛使用动态动词；适当运用直接引语。同时又具有议论文的语言个性：语言自然、客观、准确，逻辑性强，且具有概括性。在遣词造句方面多使用虚拟语气、让步状语从句和can, may, might, could, would, should等情态动词。

二、 方法突破

同学们在解答夹叙夹议文体的完形填空时，首先要读懂第一节，尤其是文章的第一句话，这样就可以迅速找到全文的主旨大意。其次要跟着作者的思路读全文，思维要有灵活性，要随着记叙与议论的转换，及时调整思维方式。答题时必须要遵循“整体—部分—整体”的步骤，具体可分为以下三步：

1． 通览全文，了解大意。2． 综合考虑，逐项填空。3． 复读检验，以防疏漏。
