2014年江苏省扬州市初中毕业、升学统一考试中考英语试题专题复习之首字母填空首字母填空类属于短文的阅读题的考查，可以是考查英语语言知识方面的，也可能涉及到其它学科的内容。学会一点常用的答题技巧，再在做习题中体验一下，就可以解决这方面的问题。在此提供了初中英语第一学期首字母填空练习，从牛津英语教材的角度，按年级划分，并附上参考答案，希望对初中生有所裨益。就答题技巧问题也说两句。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。其次要特别注意一篇文章的开头和结尾，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。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，有时出现少量的生词是很正常的，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。在阅读过程中，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。做完填空，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，关注单词的形式变化，深思熟虑很重要。（一）Most American families are smaller than the families in o81countries.
