14种技巧解尽高考英语完形填空

14种技巧解尽高考英语完形填空完型填空是英语考试中常见的一种题型，这种题被专家称为障碍性阅读，也是高考中考生丢分最多，最为棘手的题型之一。完型填空既考察对语法，短语搭配，句型等基础知识的运用，还有对短文内容的分析概括能力以及不同语境中不同知识的运用。许多同学在做完型填空的都是都有过“满江红”的经历，总是做一片错一片，看着每一个选项都是“似是而非”，面对选项不知道从何入手。那么到底怎么样才能做好完型填空，将失误率降到最小呢？下面我们来介绍几种方法，让你轻松突破“满江红”。1.跳读首尾句进行预测一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句通常是不挖空的。建议同学先跳读这两句，便可判断体裁，猜想它要讲什么。若首句交代了when, where, who, what，即四个W，那么就是记叙文，很可能就是一个故事，为了测试语篇的理解能力，出题者特别注意选材的趣味性，其结尾往往出人意料，耐人寻味；若首句是提出或解释说明某事物，一般来说是说明文；若首句提出一个论点，那么就是议论文。首句往往开宗明义，是文章的主题。细读首句可启示全文。而尾句又往往是对文章主题的总结。所以，它们是了解文章大意的一个窗口，对我们理解全文有着重要的启示作用。因此，要充分利用段首句提供的信息，去挖掘文章的思路，寻找文章的脉络与线索。Evelyn Glennie was the first lady of solo percussion in Scotland. In an interview, she recalled how she became a percussion soloist (打击乐器独奏演员) in spite of her disability.本文主要讲述的是苏格兰第一位女打击乐器独奏演员Evelyn Glennie在耳聋的情况下成功学习打击乐器的经历。根据首句给出的信息，下面我们可以猜想Evelyn Glennie学习打击乐器过程必然充满困难，而能够在耳聋的情况下学习打击乐器，Evelyn Glennie对音乐肯定也是充满热情的。2.利用语法分析解题完形填空虽然以语境填空为主，但也有部分考查语法项目的题目。对于这类题，考生可以利用平时所学的词汇知识，分析单词(组)的使用范围、动词的及物和不及物，并利用句子结构、句式特点等知识全面衡量所有选项排除干扰。_51_do you suppose he asked for them?A. What B. How C. Who D. Which【解析】本题中，do you suppose为插入成分。he asked for them是一个相对独立和完整的句子，因此空格处应该用副词How来修饰谓语动词asked，而不能用代词What, Who或Which。_8_ I had been born in the 16th century, I would have had no job.A. Because B. While C. If D. Since【解析】根据后面的I had been born in the 16th century可知这只是个假设，是一个虚拟语气的条件句。故前面要用if引导。3.利用固定搭配解题完形填空题中对词汇知识的考查，主要体现在习惯用法和同义词、近义词的辨析两方面。习惯用法是英语中某种固定的结构形态，即所谓的“习语”，不能随意改动。所以，考生平时应掌握好习惯用法。对词义辨析题的考查有加大力度的趋势。要做好这类题，需要有较大的词汇量和词语搭配能力、词语辨析能力，特别是在特定的语境中能灵活运用的能力。如:They couldt read or write. They didnt like to work and they never _12_ baths.A. took B. washed C. ran D. covered【解析】本题考查的是固定搭配take a bath，意为“洗澡”。I did very badly at school. My headmaster thought I was useless and when I was 14 he said,“Youre never going to be _2_ but a failure.”A. anything B. something C. everything D. nothing【解析】本题考查习语anything but，意为“决不”“根本不”，即校长认为我肯定是一个失败的人。4.利用固定句型解题完形填空虽然注重考查语境理解，但同时也会考到一些固定句型，考生掌握好这些句型，对确定题目的答案很有帮助。如：I havent had a phone in the house for three weeks now, and its several days _19_ I used a phone box.A. as B. when C. if D. since【解析】本题考查的是itssince句型，意为“自从已(多长时间了)”。这句话的意思是“自从我上次打投币电话已经有好几天了”。It wasnt long _18_the police caught the thief. 18. A. after B. when C. before D. until【解析】It wasnt long before是常用句型，意为“不久就”。这里说的是不久警察就把小偷捉到了。“Why _14_ you take a big man with you? You have to fight the sailor who is drunk.” 14. A. Dont B. couldnt C. cant D. do【解析】Why dont you do sth?是表示建议的固定句型，意为“为何不？”。5.利用复现信息解题语篇复现的信息包括原词复现、同义词和反义词复现、上义词和下义词复现、概括词复现和代词复现等。语篇中有词汇和结构同现的现象，如与语篇话题相关、意义相关的词汇同时出现，结构同现，同义同现，修饰同现，因果同现等。因此，利用上下文寻找解题信息，确定正确答案。First of all, I respected his _3_ to teaching. Because his lectures were always well-prepared and clearly delivered, students crowded into his classroom.A. attention B. introduction C. relation D. Devotion解析】空格后面的句子说到教授的讲座准备充分、讲解清楚（well-prepared and clearly delivered），由此可知教授为教育做出了很大的贡献，devotion to sth意为“对贡献”，与下文相通。I put my head in, expecting the worst. But to my surprise, the room wasnt empty at all. It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the wall. And then on the well-made bed sat Amy, my new _44_, dressed neatly.A. roommate B. classmate C. neighbor D. companion【分析】名词同现，空格前出现了room, furniture, curtains, a TV等同现信息可知坐在铺好的床上的是“我”的室友。6.利用跳读法解题一般而言，完形填空要填的20空中总有一些空是相对简单的。对于这类空格考生可以先将其确定下来，之后再逐个去突破其他空。跳过那些不太容易得出答案的题。切忌做题时循规蹈矩地一个顺着一个地去完成。“Visitors!”repeated Josh, wide awake at once. He_1_ up and looked around. A short distance away, a group of_2_ stood quietly watching us. One of them _3_ walking toward us. We both jumped to our _4_ not knowing what to expect.1. A. sat B. stayed C. thought D. put2. A. pilots B. natives C. editors D. assistants3. A. avoided B. delayed C. began D. desired4. A. boat B. car C. horses D. feet【解析】在通读全文的第一遍中，我们可以很容易地将第四空填出来，这是固定搭配jump to ones feet (跳起来)；由此也可推出第三空的答案C，因为有人开始向“我们”走了过来，所以“我们”才跳了起来；再根据第一空前面的wide-awake可知，此处指的应该是“我和Josh完全清醒，坐起来，环顾四周”，所以第一空的答案为A；最后，根据句首Visitors可推知第二空的答案为B。7.巧用排除法解题在有些情况下，考生如果不能很有把握地直接得出某一道题的答案，可以把排除法和词汇、语法分析结合起来运用，缩小选择的范围，提高正确率。如：the woman looked carefully at me _5_ through her glasses, and then questioned me in a low voice.A. as usual B. for a while C. in a minute D. once again【解析】这篇文章讲述的是没有工作经验的作者找到工作的故事。此题的解题关键词是carefully，既然是“认真地看”，就不会是in a minute (立刻、马上)；既然互不相识，作者也未曾去找过工作，不会是as usual(像往常一样)；前面没说已经打量过作者一次了，所以用once again(再一次)是不合理的。He put the books into the return box. And after a brief _6_ in the toilet, he would be on his way to the playground to meet Eric.A. rest B. break C. walk D. stop【解析】此题答案为D。人不可能在厕所里休息（rest, break）或是散步（walk），由此排除另外三个选项。When I started playing _19_ him, he told me I needed to relax because I looked nervous. 19. A. at B. by C. for D. around【解析】此题用排除法，by和around都有“在旁边”的意思，要选都要选，故排除这两个答案，play at后接游戏名，是“做游戏”的意思，也可排除。故答案为C。8.利用逻辑关系解题尝试从逻辑关系的高度整体上把握，就会不无惊喜地发现逻辑关系才是征服完形填空的最佳途径。所谓逻辑关系并不缥缈，它就隐藏在句子中、句与句之间以及段落的衔接中。通过逻辑关系的方法，我们可以通过确切、具体的线索，把答案的逻辑意义推测出来，从而在答案中寻找表现了相同逻辑意义的选项。这样做，使得题目的难度大大降低。(1)句中逻辑关系Vitamins are similar because they are made of the same elements usually carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and_45_nitrogen. They are different in that their elements are arranged differently, and each vitamin performs one or more specific functions in the body.A. mostly B. partly C. sometimes D. rarely【解析】短文中的usually和and是本题逻辑推理的线索。And前后构成了并列关系，即and前的usually carbon, hydrogen, oxygen这些维生素成分和and后面的nitrogen成分形成并列关系，相应修饰carbon, hydrogen, oxygen的usually必然和修饰nitrogen的45空的词构成一一对应的逻辑关系。鉴于此，在45空考虑填入的应是和usually相对应的频度副词，而语义与usually略有不同。mostly和partly都表示了部分、量的含义，与频度无关。rarely(很少地，罕有地)虽表示了频度关系，但其意义与usually相反，不符合一一对应的一致性，因此排除。只有C项sometimes(不时，有时)恰到好处地表示了and前后两部分的逻辑对应。故选C。(2)句间逻辑关系在此，我们发现所谓逻辑关系并不抽象，它往往通过转折、让步、递进、因果等明确的逻辑关系词来体现。当然，句子的逻辑关系也不一定体现在一句话的内部，它还可以渗透到篇章的层面上，在句与句之间表现出来。如：Ms Cleveland does not keep her workers on a short leash. _13_, she encourages them to get _14_ ways to do business.A. Still B. Yet C. Instead D. While【解析】根据前后句子的意思可推出两句间的逻辑关系是转折，意思是“Old Mr Cleveland把工人用带子捆绑起来(没有任何自由)，而她不那样，相反(instead)她鼓励雇员”。(3)段间逻辑关系这种逻辑关系主要体现在段落之间的衔接上。如：Not everyone sees that process in perspective. It is important to do so.It is generally recognized, _29_, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, followed by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process, although its impact in the media was not immediately apparent.A. indeed B. hence C. however D. Therefore【解析】这里有两种情况，第一可能是第二段前后的逻辑体现；第二就是段落的前后衔接。但是，这个题出现在第二段的第一句，那么，从完形填空注重逻辑关系的命题思路来看，我们优先考虑第二种情况。前段末句意为“不是每个人都能够正确看待这个进程”。而第二段首句为“大家普遍认为”，显然这两者之间存在了逻辑意义上的相反，此处可能体现了一种转折关系。故选C。9.巧用背景常识解题解答完形填空题时，有时文章中提供的信息还不够，还需要把读者头脑中储存的一般知识信息结合起来考虑，最后作出符合常识的最佳答案。因此，考生的知识范围越广，则对文章的理解会更容易，整体上知道所选短文在说什么，那么局部上的每一个空填起来也会得心应手。因此解答完形填空题时，考生的英语语言知识和有关世界的知识，都发挥着重要的作用。当对语言的把握不很准确时，可充分利用自己已掌握的文化背景和生活常识，巧妙地加以运用，先找出并理解文章主题和主线，并根据主题猜测细节，注意从重复出现的词语中寻找、体会文章表达的氛围。这样将会大大简化复杂的分析与判断过程，节省宝贵的时间，顺利地沿作者的思路阅读下去。如：After _2_ the British flag at the Pole, they took a photograph of themselves before they started the 950-mile journey back.A. Growing B. putting C. planting D. laying【解析】根据常识，南极地区冰雪覆盖，须费好大的劲将旗插进极地，plant在这里的意思是“安插”“插牢”，故答案为C planting。Salina Joe began to _2_ when she was one-year old.A. say B. Cry C. Sing D. talk【解析】根据常识判断，婴儿在一岁的时候应该是开始学说话，而不是学哭或学唱歌，故答案只能在A、D之间选出。又因为say是及物动词，其后面需接宾语，而talk是不及物动词，其后不需要接宾语，故正确答案为D。10.利用对比结构解题对比结构常把两种对立的事物或同一事物的两个不同方面并列出来加以比较或对比。高考完形填空题常常利用句子之间的对比关系或者同一个句子的不同部分之间的对比关系设计题目。如：A pupil who can do his homework in a quiet and_59_room is in a much better position than a pupil who does his homework in a small, noisy room with the television on.A. furnished B. expensive C. comfortable D. suitable【分析】本题利用相似短语之间的对比关系来命题。设空部分与下文的a small, noisy room with the television on存在对比关系。作者想借此说明“相同的作业”对于“不同家庭背景的学生”所表现出的事实上的不公平。答案为C。11.利用平行结构解题平行结构指的是结构相同或相似，意思密切关联，语法一致的句子或词组成串排列的语言现象。这些结构的形式整齐匀称，内容联系紧密。命题者常从平行结构的句式相同或相似这一角度，利用其表现意义的关联或对比这一特点来设空。高考完形填空短文常常会出现这样一些平行结构，掌握这些结构极为相似的句子可大大提高我们的解题效率。如：Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework. They say that it is_51_for children to work at home in their free time. _52_, they argue that most teachers do not_53_ plan the homework tasks they give to pupils.51.A. unnecessary B. uninteresting C. unfortunate D. unimportant52.A. Nevertheless B. however C. Therefore D. Moreover53. A. considerably B. favorably C. properly D. pleasantly【解析】排比结构由Many people think that.They say that.they argue that.所组成。在意义上表现了人们（学生家长）对学生课业负担过重的抱怨。该结构中所设置的三个空格的正确填入，要求考生首先把握结构所体现的“主题”抱怨作业太多。其次，要求考生理解三句之间在表达意义上的递进关系。即：作业过多“too much homework”；所以，课余学生在家做作业是没必要的“unnecessary”；不仅如此，教师对作业的设计也不合适“not properly”。故答案分别为A、D、C。12.利用暗示和对应解题完形填空题中虽然也穿插了对语法、短语和词的辨析、句子结构的考查等，但对文章故事情节发展线索的逻辑考查仍是重点。暗示与上下对应的思维方法，是突破此类完形填空最关键的思维方式。考生在做题时要有全局观念，进行连贯性思维，做题时要把每个空白处的含义与前后句的意思联系起来理解，进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。难选之处前后通常多有暗示，这种暗示多为后面暗示前面。如：.he would join student groups to discuss a variety of _47_: agriculture, diving and mathematics.A. questions B. subjects C. matters D. contents【解析】此题后面的冒号部分有提示：agriculture，diving and mathematics是他们谈话讨论的话题，由此可得出本题的答案为B。13.根据文章的感情色彩解题考生在第一遍通读时，应在掌握文章大意，弄清作者思路的基础上，着重寻找反映语境褒贬性的标志性词汇或句子，这些标志性词汇或句子往往对文章的语境褒贬性起着决定性的作用。如：When Ed first phoned and _37_(suggested) we play, I 1aughed quietly, figuring on an _38_(easy) victory. After all, Eds idea of _ 39_ (exercise) has always been nothing more _40_(effort-making) than lifting a fork to his mouth. _41_(As long as) I can remember, Eds been the least physically fit member in the family, and _42_(strangely) proud of himself. His big stomach has always ballooned out between his T-shirt and trousers.【解析】读这一部分，我们明显看到作者是看不清Ed的，用词有laughed, victory, nothing more than, least fit, strangely, big stomach等。在这样的描述下，人们就会很容易地想到，“我”与Ed比赛，那简直易如反掌(an easy victory)，在“我”眼中他那么差，然而他却以自己为自豪，我们怎么会觉得不奇怪(strangely)呢？因此从对人物反面的描述，我们得出这些答案就不难了。I was so surprised that I was _47_(speechless). My cousin must have made an effort to get himself into shape. _48_(As a result), at the point in our game when Id have predicted the score to be about 9 to 1 in my favor, it was _49_(instead) 7 to 9 and Ed was50 (leading).【解析】surprised一词道出了情况的转折，我们可以看到这时作者用词的转变。made an effort，get into shape等这些褒义词的使用对这些空的选择起到了很好的引导作用。speechless, instead都是由惊讶得出的。The homeless make up a growing percentage of Americas population. _1_ homelessness has reached such proportions that local government cant possibly _2_. To help homeless people_3_independence, the federal government must support job training programs, _4_the minimum wage, and fund more low-cost housing.1. A. Indeed B. Likewise C Therefore D Furthermore2.A stand B cope C approve D retain3.A in B for C with D toward4.A raise B add C take D keep1【正确答案】A【考查重点】语义衔接/逻辑衔接【解题过程】The homeless make up a growing percentage of Americas population. , homelessness has reached such proportions that.。无家可归者在美国人口中占越来越大的比例。无家可归者所占的比例已经达到如此地步，以至于。 选项A. indeed表示强调；B. likewise与相似；C. therefore因此（强调结果）；D. furthermore进一步说（表示递进）。根据前一句make up a growing percentage与后一句reach such proportion that确定后者是对前者的例证强调。因此，正确答案为A。2. 【正确答案】B【考查重点】语义衔接【解题过程】本题目选择动词在定语从句中充当谓语。.homelessness has reached such proportions that local government cant possibly . 无家可归者所占的比例已经达到地方政府都无法的地步。选项A. stand 忍受；B. cope （成功地）对付，应对；C. approve 赞成，批准；D. retain 保留。stand作为及物动词在句子中要直接连接宾语，但是句子中没有宾语，因此该词不符合句子结构； cope作为不及物动词，可以在句子中表达完整的含义；C、D项与句意不符。因此，正确答案为B。3. 【正确答案】D【考查重点】语义衔接【解题过程】本题目选择介词，选择介词与句子中的动词有直接关系。原文意为：帮助无家可归者达到独立。D项toward意为达成，意在达到，以为目标。C项with可与help构成搭配to help sb. with sth.帮助某人做某事，与题意不符。因此，正确答案为D。4. 【正确答案】A【考查重点】语义衔接【解题过程】the federal government must support job training programs, the minimum wage, and fund more low-cost housing. 联邦政府必须提供就业培训项目,最低工资标准，资助建设更多低价住房。 句子中the minimum wage与前面的短语support job training program提供就业培训项目和后面的短语fund more lowcost housing资助建设更多低价住房是并列关系。由提供信息确定选择提高之意。raise增加，提高，提高最低工资标准，符合句子含义； add也意为增加，但它的宾语一般是具体数字。因此，正确答案为A。考生要看懂第一话，为了帮助the homeless，所以选项必须全部支持这个主题，要选择与主题态度相关的词。14.综合利用各种线索解题完形填空题主要考查短文阅读理解的能力。因此考生必须阅读全文，弄清句子与句子之间的关系，准确理解全文。为了答好题，考生必须从字里行间寻找能够利用的线索。如书写和形态变化线索(graphic and morphological clues)、词汇线索(lexical clues)、句法线索(syntactical clues)、社会文化线索(socio-cultural clues)，并根据有关的线索进行猜测，作出合理的判断。如：And the clerk confirmed that his plane was leaving at nine oclock three days from that daySince he was _44_ in three days, Andy didnt lose anytime.A. moving B. returning C. staying D. leaving【解析】单从这句来看，考生实难判断出正确答案，但如果结合前文，就可以找到设空部分的解题线索上文中出现的词汇leaving。故本题答案为D。有时题目的答案在短文中就有出现，如能找出线索，解题就易如反掌。如：Many experts believe parents should gently look over the work of younger children and ask them to rethink theirA. exercises B. defects C. mistakes D. tests【解析】许多专家认为家长应简单地看看孩子的作业，并让他们自己重新思考自己做的练习。能与句中work照应的只有选项A。巧用“线索法”做英语完形填空题A formal letter is very different from an informal letter. Formal letters _1_ to businesses ,schools or government offices. _2_letters are for relatives, or former(以前的) teachers. You may write an informal letter by hand, but you should _3_ a formal letter.1. A. sendB. are writtenC. writeD. are dropped2. A. InformalB. FormalC. BusinessD. Relative3. A. copyB. typeC. writeD. share【解析】1.选B。该句缺少谓语动词，而写信应用被动语态。该句意为“正式书信是写给商业部门、学校”。D虽用了被动，但搭配不当。Drop sb a line为“给人写信(短信)”。2.选A。前面说的是正式书信，这里说的是写给亲戚、好友或以前的老师的，较随便，即非正式书信。3.选B。通过but可知，此处说的是非正式书信与正式书信的写作方式的不同，非正式书信可以手写，但正式书信要正规得多，得打字。1.巧用因果关系线索解题即根据上下文的因果关系进行推断，从而得出所需答案。如：It was a strange noise that made the man_1_ his car soon after he left a village _2_ London. He got out of his car and _3_ the wheels(车轮) carefully, but as he found nothing _4_he continued his way.1. A. startB. stopC. slowD. speed2. A. toB. forC. fromD. of3. A. repaired B. examined C. cleaned D. looked4. A. wrongB. dangerC. interestingD. matter【解析】1.选B。他在去伦敦的路上，一阵奇怪的声音驱使他把车停了下来。这可从He got out of his car推测出来。2.选B。leavefor是个固定短语，意为“离开到”。3.选B。在听到奇怪的声音后，他停下车来仔细检查轮胎(看看出现了什么问题)。4.选A。从下句“他又继续赶路了”可知，“因为他没有发现毛病”。nothing wrong意为“没有毛病”。2.巧用具体示例线索解题即根据文章中所提供的具体实例进行分析，将与具体示例有关的信息进行优选，将与具体示例无关的信息进行排除，从而便可得出所需答案。如：Every student must wear their _1_ when they are at school. There are _2_ items of uniforms: suits, dresses ,shorts, skirts and T-shirts. There are also Wasley schoolbags, caps and socks.1. A. long hairB. thick glassesC. sports shoesD. school uniforms2. A. muchB. threeC. manyD. a lot【解析】1.选D。本段谈论的是在校生穿校服的事情，而不是穿运动鞋，蓄长发、戴墨镜并不是学校所提倡的。2.选C。suits, dresses, shorts, skirts and T-shirts等是服装的个例，前面只有填“校服”才与之相配。Though he is serious in appearance, he never fails to be interesting. Often he is clever, sometimes even _ and gayA. worriedB. brightC. discouragingD. friendly【解析】从Often he is clever来看，此处话题谈论的是“他的智慧/聪明”，而even一词也暗示此处应填bright，因bright与clever为同义词，均为“聪明”。As it turned out, my little publication wenton to become Student, a national magazine for young people in the U.K. My wife and I have two children, and Id like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad _ me.A. controlledB. comfortedC. remindedD. raised【解析】句中的in the same way告诉我们，空格处所填动词应与前面的动词bring up(培养，养育)同义，比较四个选项，答案显然是D项。3.巧用逻辑顺序线索解题即根据文章所提供的内容，同时结合一定的生活常识，对所推断的内容进行逻辑推理和逻辑顺序。如：I went to Wasley College with Winnic today. Wasley is a large, old _1_. It has three branch campuses(分校): Clunes, Glen Waverly and Elasterwick. It has a primary school, a _2_ school and a senior school. So there are twelve grades of _3_ studying there.1. A. schoolB. factoryC. movieD. hospital2. A. nightB. juniorC. highD. spare-time3. A. workersB. boysC. studentsD. teachers【解析】1.选A。从下句话It has three branch campuses来看，Wasley是一所学校。2.选B。从空缺处所在的位置来看，界于primary和senior之间的学校当然属于junior。这就是说是顺序推测出来的。3.选C。既然是在此学习，他们当然是students了。4.巧用语篇标志线索解题语篇一般指比单个句子长的语言单位，如句群、段落、篇章等。语篇与语篇之间往往有表明其内在联系的词语，这些词语可称为语篇标志。如：表示结果层次的语篇标志语有firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally等;表示逻辑关系的有thus, therefore, so等;表示改变话题的有by the way等;表示时间关系的有before, so far, yet, now, later等。在做完形填空题时，如果能充分利用这些语篇标志语，就可以迅速理清文章的脉络，弄清上下文的关系。如：First of all, I respected his devotion to teaching_, I admired the fact that he would talk to students outside the classroom or talkFinally, I was attracted by his lively sense of humor.A. LaterB. SecondlyC. HoweverD. Therefore【解析】选B。考生如果注意到了文章上下文中的语篇标志词语first of all和finally，再比较四个选项，显然只有选secondly最恰当。I realized strength and courage arent always measured in medals and victories, but in the struggles we overcome(战胜).The strongest people are not always the people who win, _ the people who dont give up when they lose.A. orB. norC. andD. but【解析】句中的the people who win与the people who dont give up when they lose是两个表达十分相似的结构，比较其中的win和lose可知，前后两个结构属对比关系，估计应填but，再结合句中的not，并联想notbut句式，可以推知，此题最佳答案应选D。The correct water supply forecast is based more on the water from the _ than from the below.A. cloudsB. skyC. airD. above【解析】more fromthan from是一个明显用于对比的结构，根据后面的the below可知，前面应是the above，即答案选D。5.巧用语境暗示线索解题有的空格根据所在句的句意或附近上下文的语境我们无法作出正确的选择，要想作出正确判断，同学们应特别注意空格前后所出现的相关词语，尤其注意找出其中重复出现的暗示性词语。如：Four students from Burlington College of Higher Education are in the bell tower of the _ have made up their minds to ring thebells nonstop for two weeks as a protest (抗议)against heavy trucks which run day and night through the narrow High Street.A. collegeB. villageC. townD. church【解析】选D。若仅就本句内容来看，此题答案不好选择，但当我们读到文章末尾处的I mean we are assistant bell ringersfor the church时，我们才便可根据其中的church一词作出判断。But then again, would there be a chair in Room316? Or would it be a(n) _ room?A. smallB. emptyC. newD. neat【解析】选B。若仅从本句来看，似乎四个选项都不错，但要想确定其中的最佳答案，考生应注意到文章后半部分的But to my surprise, the room wasnt empty at all! It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and seven paintings on the walls.这一句。 高考英语完形填空的备考策略与技巧 1. 依据上下文确定答案的法则：从近几年的完形填空题看，近义词或近义短语的测试力度逐渐加强，并成为测试热点。四个选项不是词义相近，要不就是近义动词的同一种时态的现象，或名词的单复数搭配。若选项词义差异很大，必然文章中藏有提示语，正因如此，往往第一个选项有时需要读完全篇短文才能准确回答。2. 词语语义与强于语法原则：完型填空题的首句不留空，目的就是告知短文的故事的四要素：地点、时间、人物和事由。再则，单纯语法题已基本退出该题型的测试范畴，所以，指导学生时，首先要告知他们这类现象。尽管四个选项的词语都符合语法规则，然而该题的解答必须遵循先全面理解篇章语义，再结合正确语言结构对每个空格作出准确无误的抉择。3. 解题四步法原则：第一步：跳读。带着空格通读全文，了解短文大意，判别短文文体，同时能将会做的题及时解决掉。第二步：选答。这一步最为关键，要求考生对每一道题进行认真推敲，但是要告诫他们万万不可按照题的顺序答题，对那些不能拿不准的题先跳过去，遵循先易后难的解题原则。第三步：推敲。这实际上就是要求考生对完形填空短文的篇章作通盘考虑，把其中一些需要依据上下文语境来考虑的比较难解答的题，以及句子之间和段落之间的逻辑关联较强的认真推敲，甄别，筛选和抉择。第四步：复查。这是解答这类题的最后一步，要求考生解完题之后务必再把文章通读一遍，从整体上准确把握文章的真正意思，及时修改与全文有出入的一些选项。应试技巧一：语境信息解题法： 近几年的完形填空题淡化了语法结构性的题，选项重在语意干扰，也就是说，对具体的语言知识应该融入具体的语境中去考虑，考生应具有通过上下文提示、暗示或铺垫，对篇章进行整体上的把握的能力。所以，快速浏览全文，迅速领悟篇章主旨，通过上下文语境选择答案选项乃解决完形填空的关键。4)Our_47_challengewastokeeptherockmixture_48_enough.47.A.nextB.firstC.pastD.previous48.A.coldB.wetC.looseD.clean【题解：47. 答案为A项。短文前面提到第一个挑战是发电的问题，那么接下来的挑战就是如何保持温度的问题。48. 答案为B项。从下文提到的洒水车等事情，我们可以判断出这儿应该是“保持湿度”的语意。】5)Stillothersfacedthestormbravely,walkingmilestogettowork.I_40_tobeoneofpeopleonthewaytoworkthatmorning.Iwentfromsubwaylinetosubwaylineonlytofindthatmost_41_hadstopped.Aftermakingmywaythroughcrowdsofpeople,Ifinallyfoundasubwaylinethatwas_43_.40.A.usedB.promisedC.deservedD.happened41.A.practiceB.routineC.processD.service
