首字母解题技巧
这种题型难度相对较大,考生失分现象比较严重。考生要仔细阅读全文,利用上下文提供的有关信息,仔细阅读相关句子,判断所缺单词在句中所作的成分,这样才能写出正确答案。要做好此类题目,考生不但要有较强的语感,善于体会上下文的内在联系,而且还要有扎实的语言知识储备和较大的词汇量。
解题步骤
1. 跳过空格，通读短文，了解大意。
2. 复读短文，确定语义，判断句子成分。
3.判断空格单词在句子成分里的词性，缩小范围。
4.联系上下文，找关键信息推测出答案。
5.通读短文，检查答案。注意时态，语法，以及词性等问题。
解题技巧
1.理清文章脉络
首字母填空有种“另类完形填空”的感觉。所以在解题技巧上两者有共通之处,先要通读整篇
文章,了解文章主要描述了什么,要表达什么意思,在弄清楚了文章大意和中心思想后,在答题时就能
够大致划定单词的范围。在通读文章的过程中,对于容易确定的答案可先填上。
例1 Here are some t to help improve children's working memory.
2.找出提示词
解题时注意段落的首句和尾句,这两个地方会提供不少解题信息。有的短文只有一段,这时要仔细推敲设空处的上下文,找到关键词句,抓住关键信息,可按照文章段落句子的意思,猜测每个空逻辑上符合的词义,并根据首字母的提示,进一步缩小单词可选范围,最终确定答案。
例2 Eating vegetables does not make us f because they are low in calories.
例3 Yangzhou China Grand Canal Museum is different from all the other m which are themed on the Grand Canal in China. Why not come and visit it yourself
3.确定适当形式
仅仅确定了单词可能还不是最终答案,要根据文章实际情况,变换词形。确定了填写某个单词之后,要考虑语法是否正确,是否符合句式结构,能否使得文章变通顺。
动词的填写,要判断所在段落句子的时态,根据不同的情况,动词有原形、过去式、第三人称单数、过去分词等几种形式;名词的填写,要考虑是否可数、名词单复数的变化;形容词的填写,要考虑是否要用比较级或最高级等。这些都是要在最终确定答案前要考虑到的。
例4 This is not because they are the most nutritious, but because they are the (71)e to grow.
例5 The 25.7-meter-long, 8-meter-high ancient Bian River section is c by many as the “treasure of the museum”.

These ‘cave people’ usually lived in small groups and life was not e 2 for them. They had to move from place to place to s 3 for food. They would hunt, fish or pick wild fruit. When they couldn’t find a 4 to eat, they would leave to find another proper place. Their tools were very simple. They ate raw (生的) food u 5 they learnt how to make a fire. For clothing, they used only the bark (树皮) of trees or the skins (皮) of animals to c 6 their bodies.
However, the lives of the ‘cave people’ changed. They collected the seeds (种子) of wild plants that g 7 in the forests. Soon they learnt to plant fruit, vegetables and other crops.

Even though my grandfather was a farmer, my grandmother would iron his work clothes every day. Grandmother mixed up her own starch (淀粉浆) in a glass b 1 with a metal cap that had several holes. She sprinkled Grandfather’s jeans with the starch, hung them over a chair for a few minutes, and then i 2 them.
Because I watched her do this through my childhood, I thought every old woman did it. But as the years passed, I began to question this p 3 . Why did Grandfather need his work clothes ironed Most days, he never saw anyone b 4 me and maybe a few other farmers. The clothes became dirty in just a short time. Why did Grandmother s 5 devote time and effort to ironing Grandfather’s clothes that were rarely seen
One day when I was about 13, I asked Grandmother about it. She told me Grandfather was the most handsome man in the world. Later that day, I looked c 6 at Grandfather. He sure didn’t look so handsome to me. He was short and fat with false teeth (假牙). Later I told her my thought.
She gave me a girlish smile and said, “You just aren’t looking in the right light, Cathy. I remember when he had r 7 teeth. He has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen. They are e 8 the same color as the sky just before the sun goes down. I want the world to see my h 9 as the most beautiful man. I want him to feel beautiful. I iron his clothes every day because for all these years, he has made me feel beautiful.”
The years went on, and I watched Grandmother and Grandfather grow old together. I was probably 30 when I u 10 what beauty really was. It was Grandmother ironing Grandfather’s jeans with starch from a glass bottle.

1.理清文章脉络
首字母填空有种“另类完形填空”的感觉。所以在解题技巧上两者有共通之处,先要通读整篇
文章,了解文章主要描述了什么,要表达什么意思,在弄清楚了文章大意和中心思想后,在答题时就能
够大致划定单词的范围。在通读文章的过程中,对于容易确定的答案可先填上。
例1 Here are some t to help improve children's working memory.
解题思路 下文各个段落是在讲“如何帮助提高孩子们的工作记忆”。所以此处可用ways, suggestions, tips等词。根据首字母t可知,此处填tips。
2.找出提示词
解题时注意段落的首句和尾句,这两个地方会提供不少解题信息。有的短文只有一段,这时要仔细推敲设空处的上下文,找到关键词句,抓住关键信息,可按照文章段落句子的意思,猜测每个空逻辑上符合的词义,并根据首字母的提示,进一步缩小单词可选范围,最终确定答案。
例2 Eating vegetables does not make us f because they are low in calories.
解题思路 根据空后“because they are low in calories”可知,蔬菜是低卡路里的食物,所以不会让人发胖,故填fat。
例3 Yangzhou China Grand Canal Museum is different from all the other m which are themed on the Grand Canal in China. Why not come and visit it yourself
解题思路 all the other后接可数名词复数。根据上文“Yangzhou China Grand Canal Museum is different from...”可知是把扬州中国大运河博物馆和中国其他的大运河博物馆作比较。故填museums。
3.确定适当形式
仅仅确定了单词可能还不是最终答案,要根据文章实际情况,变换词形。确定了填写某个单词之后,要考虑语法是否正确,是否符合句式结构,能否使得文章变通顺。
动词的填写,要判断所在段落句子的时态,根据不同的情况,动词有原形、过去式、第三人称单数、过去分词等几种形式;名词的填写,要考虑是否可数、名词单复数的变化;形容词的填写,要考虑是否要用比较级或最高级等。这些都是要在最终确定答案前要考虑到的。
例4 This is not because they are the most nutritious, but because they are the (71)e to grow.
解题思路 根据空前的“This is not because they are the most nutritious”可知,此处也需要填最高级,根据语境、常识和首字母可知,此处表示它们是最容易种植的,故填easiest。
例5 The 25.7-meter-long, 8-meter-high ancient Bian River section is c by many as the “treasure of the museum”.
解题思路 consider...as...认为……是……。根据主语The...Bian River section和空格后的by many可
知,此句用被动语态。故填过去分词considered。
技巧详解
（一） 从词性考查角度分析：
1. 名词：单复数形式, 所有格的用法
September 10th is Teachers’ Day.
In autumn after a strong wind, the ground is often covered with fallen leaves.
2. 动词：时态，语态的变化
We could not run faster than cheetahs,so we invented cars and now we can move the fastest.
When you laugh ,you will open your mouth and your teeth.
3. 形容词、副词：比较等级的用法
Last Sunday，we played happily in the park, though we were very tired.
Summer is the hottest season of the year.
4. 代词：单复数 人称代词 反身代词 指示代词 关系代词 不定代词 等的用法
Help yourself to some fish，Jim.
Mrs Green said to the twins .”Help yourselves to some fish please. ”
This book belongs to Mary. It is hers.
5. 连词：并列与从属连词的用法
For years, we played other people’s songs, but now we play mostly our own songs.
She didn’t go to school yesterday ,because she was ill.
（二） 从句子成分角度分析
句子是按照一定的语法规律组成的，表达一个完整的意义。一个句子一般由两部分构成，即主语部分和谓语部分，这两部分也叫做句子的主要成分。句子的次要成分包括宾语，定语，状语，表语、同位语等。
1.名词表示人和物，实词。句中主要作主语和宾语。
例：Tony’s family was preparing dinner when Amy arrived. The family was cooking vegetables with hot oil. The k was filled with many good smells.
解析：the 后接名词，充当主语。根据上文 cooking 等，这里填写 kitchen。
2.动词表示人或事物的动作、行为、发展、变化。句中作谓语和非谓语动词形式。
例：Tony is Chinese American. Hisfamily members gather together and serve a traditional Chinese meal once a week. Last week Tony i his friend Amy for it.
解析：此空所填词在句中作谓语动词，后跟宾语从句，所以判断此处所填应为及物动词，根据上文中 meal 可知填 invited。
3.形容词主要修饰名词 ， 表示事物的形状 、 性质 、 颜色 、 状态等。
例：Don't drive your car in London! Car parks are very e . You have to pay a special congestion charge (拥堵费) to drive your car into the city centre.
解析：所填成分在剧中修饰主语 car parks，修饰名词用形容词，所以判断此空填写的词为形容词。根据下文 a special charge 意思可知填 expensive。
4.副词说明时间、地点、程度、方式等，修饰动词、形容词、整个句子；
例：Tickets at reducedprices are not available for first-class travels or for travels a ,such as
to France or Germany.（上海中考英语真题）
解析：所填之空作状语修饰动词，判断此处词性应为副词，根据上下文得出此处填 abroad（adv. 更好的；更多的；较大程度地），修饰 travel。
5.连词用来连接词与词，词组与词组，句子与句子的虚词，主要表示逻辑关系。
U we are careful, it’s easy to fail to recognized an opportunity when it is in hand.
解析：此句中有两个分句，而没有连词链接，所以判断空中填入的应为连词，而根据上下文意，这里应填入表示条件的连词 unless（“除非”）
（三） 其他做题思路：
（1） 依据习惯用法与固定搭配进行填词：
如:W his help, the old man was safe. The boy thanked him very much.
从句意我们就知道是“在他的帮助下”， with his help.
（2）依据语法知识进行填词：
如:It was a l earlier.
从句中的earlier可以看出它是比较级,修饰形容词比较级有前面有a,那肯定就是little.
（3） 依据常识的积累进行填词：
如:But it was too late. His friend was very angry. Mr. White said nothing but only one word “S .” Mr. White迟到了，他的朋友很生气，他什么都没说，只说了一个字“S .”
我们根据常识肯定是向他的朋友道歉，所以肯定填sorry.
（4）依据逻辑推理与句意理解进行填词：
如： One Sunday afternoon, Mr. White drove his new car to his friend’s house happily. He wanted to p his friend up at five and then went to see a new movie together.
根据句意，Mr. White高兴地开着车去他的朋友家，然后一起去看电影，我们可以进行逻辑推理，他肯定是去接他的朋友，所以填pick.
