【解析】本文給出了一些更好地與聽力受損的人交流的小技巧。

【1】根據(jù)空格后面的句子Follow these simple tips so people with hearing loss will more easily understand what you’re saying and be able to participate.可以得知本文給出了一些與聽力受損的人交流的方法。結(jié)合前面對(duì)《大喊不管用》的作者所說的話，可以得知臨床上耳聾的她教給朋友、家人、同事如何幫助聽力受損的人。故選G。

【2】根據(jù)空格上面的小標(biāo)題建議不要大喊，以及后面的句子yelling doesn’t help a person with hearing loss hear you any better.可以得知沖著聽力受損的人大喊不會(huì)幫到他們�？梢缘弥�建議我們用平常的說話聲音清晰的講話。故選E。

【3】根據(jù)空格的位置可以判斷是小標(biāo)題，建議不要做某事，下面的內(nèi)容說到聽力受損的人會(huì)讀唇語，所以不要靠到這些人的耳朵旁講話。故選A。

【4】根據(jù)空格前面的句子Most people with hearing loss have a hard time distinguishing speech over a noisy air conditioner,可以得知聽力受損的人辨別不清你說的和空調(diào)、或電視上發(fā)出的聲音，因此建議不要在播放的電視機(jī)旁講話。故選B。

【5】根據(jù)空格前面的句子If someone doesn’t hear what you’ve said after you’ve restated it two or three times, don’t give up. Rephrase and retry.可以得知當(dāng)說一遍對(duì)方聽不清時(shí)，你不要放棄，重新說。最后總結(jié)不要放棄的原因，對(duì)于聽力受損的人來說，任何話語都是重要的。故選C。

“七選五”題要求學(xué)生根據(jù)文章的結(jié)構(gòu)、邏輯、上下文的內(nèi)容選出相應(yīng)的五句話填入空白處將文章補(bǔ)充完整。主要目的在于“考查考生對(duì)文章的整體內(nèi)容和結(jié)構(gòu)以及上下文邏輯意義的理解和掌握。”

試題的位置不同，解題策略也不同：

1．若問題在段首：通常是段落主題句。認(rèn)真閱讀該段落，根據(jù)段落一致性原則，查找相關(guān)詞或者同義詞，從而推測(cè)出主題句，找到答案。 例如____2____; yelling doesn’t help a person with hearing loss hear you any better. The exception: if your voice is particularly quiet, you should speak louder.根據(jù)相關(guān)詞yelling doesn’t help，Don’t’ shout.可以判斷出沖著聽力受損的人大喊不會(huì)幫到他們，故選E。

2．若問題在段尾通常是結(jié)論、概括性語句。要注意表示總結(jié)的信號(hào)詞，如therefore, as a result, hence,thus, to sum up, to conclude, in short, in a word等詞語，選項(xiàng)中也可發(fā)現(xiàn)前文的同義詞句。例如：Most people with hearing loss have a hard time distinguishing speech over a noisy air conditioner, a humming fish tank or anything that whirs, murmurs or rumbles. ______4______.空格前的have a hard time distinguishing與B項(xiàng)中的“Don’t try to chat”對(duì)應(yīng)，可以判斷選B。

3若問題是位于自然段中 承上啟下是空格的主要任務(wù)，分析句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系及內(nèi)容的連貫性，注意句子間的銜接手段。將選項(xiàng)代入原文，如果前后內(nèi)容連貫，符合邏輯，就能得出正確答案。 例如：says Katherine Bouton, author of Shouting Won’t Help. ___1___Follow these simple tips so people with hearing loss will more easily understand what you’re saying and be able to participate.本段前一句“《大喊不管用》的作者所說的話”，以及空格后的“these simple tips”與D項(xiàng)中的“how to help”對(duì)應(yīng)，可以得知G項(xiàng)所表達(dá)的意思也與空格后的內(nèi)容相關(guān)聯(lián)，承上啟下。
