　　考题分析:Caribbean Islands

　　What would you see if you took a cruise to the Caribbean Islands? Palm trees and coconuts (椰子)? white beaches and clear，blue ocean? Colorful corals(珊瑚)and even more colorful fishes and birds?
　　You bet．There are thousands of islands in the Caribbean Sea．They are famous for their warm，tropical climate and great natural beauty．
　　The Caribbean Islands form a chain that separates the Caribbean Sea from the rest of the Atlantic Ocean. __1__ Many of the islands were formed by the eruption(爆发)of ancient volcanoes(火山)．Others are low—lying coral islands that gradually rose from the ocean.
　　The Caribbean Islands are known by several names. __2__. The explorer Christopher Columbus called the islands the Indies in 1492 because he thought he was near the coast of India．Later, Spain and France called the islands the Antilles．
　　There are four large islands in the Caribbean Sea． __3__. These four islands are often called the Greater Antilles．Together,they account for about 90 percent of the land area of the Caribbean Islands．
　　The rest of the Caribbean Islands are much smaller． __4__. You can see why pirates such as the famous Blackbeard sailed these waters. There are countless small islands to bury treasure or hide on.
　　The weather of the Caribbean Sea is almost always warm and sunny．Sandy beaches line the coasts of many islands. __5__. Many tourists arrive on cruise ships．

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　B The earliest name used by Europeans is the Indies，later changed to the West Indies．
　　C They’re like a long necklace that stretches between North and South America．
　　D They are Cuba，Puerto Rico，Jamaica，and Hispaniola
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral．

　　答案与解析:
　　1. 文章标题分析: 借助文章标题, 抓住文章主题内容.
　　Caribbean Islands 加勒比海岛屿说明文可能会具体涉及到加勒比海岛屿的地理特点, 岛上的居民等内容

　　2. 被选项分析: 挑出被选项中的体现“前后句语意联系或逻辑关系的词”（包括：代词，定冠词结构，表示逻辑关系的逻辑连词，逻辑副词等）

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　B The earliest name used by Europeans is the Indies，later changed to the West Indies．比较级结构暗示前后句在内容很可能也涉及到“名字”
　　C They’re like a long necklace that stretches between North and South America．
　　D They are Cuba，Puerto Rico，Jamaica，and Hispaniola
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral

　　3．直接解题。注意利用刚才在被选项中挑出的体现“前后句语意联系或逻辑关系的词”，寻找它们在空格前后句中呼应的内容。关注空格前后句在词语使用上的特点，在句意上的相互关系。
　　解题思路：相临前后句往往句意相关，在词语上呼应。

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　B The earliest name used by Europeans is the Indies，later changed to the West Indies．比较级结构暗示前后句在内容很可能也涉及到“名字”
　　C They’re like a long necklace that stretches between North and South America．
　　D They are Cuba，Puerto Rico，Jamaica，and Hispaniola
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral

　　1． C.分析：空格前后句都主要涉及到“加勒比海岛屿”，接着避重就轻，关注前后句的主干内容：前句说“加勒比海岛屿形成了一条链子…”, 这是在介绍加勒比海岛屿的形状; 空格后句说“许多加勒比海岛屿是由…而形成”, 这是在介绍加勒比海岛屿的形成, 因此判断空格中的内容也一定在内容涉及到关于加勒比海岛屿的地貌的介绍和描述. 因此判断C和F可能是答案(它们都是关于地貌的描述), 但是some不和 many呼应使用, 因此判断C(它们象一条长长的项链, 连绵于美国的北部和南部之间)更可能是答案, 而且C中的代词they恰好也与前后句中的“加勒比海岛屿”形成呼应。

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　B The earliest name used by Europeans is the Indies，later changed to the West Indies．比较级结构暗示前后句在内容很可能也涉及到“名字”
　　D They are Cuba，Puerto Rico，Jamaica，and Hispaniola
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral
　　The Caribbean Islands are known by several names.有好几个名字 __2__. The explorer Christopher Columbus called the islands the Indies in 1492 because he thought he was near the coast of India．Later, Spain and France called the islands the Antilles．

　　2． B。分析：空格前面出现了“names（姓名）”，空格后面提到了“…称加勒比海岛屿…”(也与加勒比海岛屿的姓名有关), 因此判断空格处很可能会在内容上涉及到岛屿的名字, 因此判断B最可能成为答案.

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　D They are Cuba，Puerto Rico，Jamaica，and Hispaniola
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral
　　There are four large islands in the Caribbean Sea． __3__. These four islands are often called the Greater Antilles．Together,they account for about 90 percent of the land area of the Caribbean Islands．

　　3. D. 分析: 空格前后在内容上反复提到了四个岛屿, 从这个内容上看D很可能是答案. 而且D中的代词they恰好也与空格前后句中的“四个岛屿”形成呼应。

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　F Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers(小片)of exposed coral
　　The rest of the Caribbean Islands are much smaller． __4__. You can see why pirates such as the famous Blackbeard sailed these waters. There are countless small islands to bury treasure or hide on.

　　4 F。分析：空格前句中出现了比较结构“（剩下的岛屿）更小”，在空格后面（空格后第2句）也提到了岛屿面积的小，因此推测空格处的句子可能在内容上涉及到对“岛屿面积小”的具体描述，因此判断F（这些岛屿中有一些岛屿只不过是小片的暴露在海面的珊瑚）最可能是答案。

　　A But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise．
　　E This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year从内容上看前句应该是在解释原因。
　　The weather of the Caribbean Sea is almost always warm and sunny．Sandy beaches line the coasts of many islands. __5__. Many tourists arrive on cruise ships．

　　5．E．分析：空格后面的句子中提到了“游客”，因此推测同A相比E更可能是答案，空格前句说 “沙滩沿着许多岛屿的海岸分布（许多岛屿的海岸有沙滩）”，这句在内容上恰恰与E（这就是为什么每年有很多的游客到这些岛屿来观光的原因）呼应。
