高考学案教学法专题完形填空应试的策略与技巧
英语完形填空题主要考查学生阅读理解能力、逻辑思维能力和对具体语境的把握能力，设20处空白，每处空白要求学生从文下所给的四个选项中选择一个最佳选项作为答案。考生必须尽可能地利用短文中上下文中出现过的信息词、信息句去猜测推断意思，理解线索，弄清句与句之间、段落与段落之间的联系，从而达到全面理解整篇文章、进而找到最佳选项，使补全后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯、结构完整的目的。
第一章： 高考完形填空的特点
1）选材原汁原味，体现“跨文化意识”
一般说来，完形填空的选材多具有一定故事情景和教育意义的短文，其文体主要是记叙文，叙中有议。文章多选自原汁原味的英文报刊。由于英美报刊文章不同于中国人所写的英文文章，在遺词造句、行文布局、逻辑思维方面均与中国人有较大差异，因此考生往往会觉得短文“跳跃多”、“起伏大”。这种用原汁原味英文考查学生的选材方式意在保证该项测试的难度，并且对强化英语教学的“跨文化意识”发挥较好的作用。
2）设空及选项注重情景，考查综合运用语言能力
一般说来，文章长度大约300词，20处空白的平均词距约15词，7－20词左右设一空，首句一般不设空。选项多为单词，短语比较少见，侧重考查动词、名词、代词、形容词、副词等实词在具体语境中的得体使用，不少涉及词语辨析、情感、情理和逻辑思维，很少考点是单纯考短语搭配或语法规则，对考生的综合能力要求甚高。设空常注重以下几个方面：
① 语境用词
这类考点要求考生依据上下文情景、语境，甚至段落或文章，从四个选项中选出最佳答案。其涉及面非常广，如时间、地点、方向、情感、动作等等。解这类题的关键是选项要合情入理。
②词语辨析
完形填空中有些考点涉及词义辨析。这类考点可以一箭双雕，既考查考生对词语的掌握和词汇量的大小，对考查考生结合语境情景用词能力。与单项填空题的词语辨析题相比，完形填空题的词语辨析更具综合性。
③常识应用
从语言为实际生活服务这一基本原则出发，完形填空必然有考查常识的考点，借此也可以测试出学生的知识面和视野的开阔程度以及灵活运用常识理顺语句、语篇的能力。因此考生要注意在某些相关点利用生活常识进行合理思维，以选择正确答案。
④ 归纳概括
这类考点多见于议论文、说明文和科普文中，旨在检测考生的综合归纳、全面概括能力。要求考生高层建瓴，由段落或篇章中心去捕捉若干点的答案。
⑤ 逻辑推理
完形填空的逻辑推理题网涉及行文走势，句段的起承转合，事情发展的先后过程，开始与结果之间的关系，是与非的鉴别判断，时间、地点、人物、背景的相互牵连等。在议论文、科普文、夹叙夹议文体中，经常会出现这类考题。
处理这类问题，要抓住结构、语义及逻辑三条主线，在此基础上进行合理的推断和预测。答题时，首先要注意所选的答案填入空白处后整个句子语法结构是否合理；其次，看语义是否通顺，上下文是否连贯、呼应；第三，如果几个选项填入空白处，结构和语义没有问题，那就要从逻辑角度推理判断哪个选项填入最为合理。全文填空结束以后，应复读全文，核查意思是否合理，前后有无矛盾等。
第二章： 高考完形填空策略指导
I. 解题步骤
第一步：跳读首尾句，判断文体，预测主题。
一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句是不挖空的，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。
第二步：通读全文，把握大意。
做完形填空时要注意文章开头提示句的点题作用和短文中完整句的启示作用。首先要快速浏览全文，弄清各段落之间，各层次之间的内在联系，把握文章的完整性。只有这样才符合这种题型的解题思路。
第三步： 逐句细读，确定选项。
大致把握了全文的大意和作者的意图之后，就可以根据上下文，选取与文意最贴切的选项。此时，应遵循先易后难的原则，对有把握的选项“一锤定音”。对没有把握的选项不妨先放一放，接着往下看，往往会出现“柳暗花明”的情况。
第四步：再次阅读，复查答案。
复查时从意义和语法两个角度考虑，着眼于全篇。特别注意的是，我们所选的是“最佳”选项而不是“正确”答案。
上述三步可概括为：一步粗读寻思路，二步细读选答案，三步复读纠错误，若能沉着照此办，胸有成竹少失误。
II. 解题技巧
①. 根据上下文语境来确定最佳选项 近年来的完形填空试题在选项的设置上越来越淡化语法结构，重在文意的干扰，即把具体的语言知识溶进具体的语言情景中去，考查考生通过上下文的前后提示或暗示，对整体文意进行把握的能力。这种考查方式所占的比例较大，且难度也大，若单纯从句子或个别段落来分析，或许所给的四个答案在语法和结构上都是正确的，若放在全局，则不一定正确。因此，快速浏览全文，领悟文章主旨，通过上下文的语境来选择答案是解决这类题的关键。
[例1] (2004浙江卷) Bob had just made a “motherhood contract(合同)”—declaring that for 70 days this summer he would 37 the care of their four children and all the housework. Although he didn’t even know how to make coffee when he signed, he was very confident…. After 40 of the 70 days, he was ready to give up. “ I was beaten down, “ admits Bob. “Not only is motherhood a 40 task, it is an impossible job for any normal human being.”….
37. A. stick to B. set about C. think about D. take over
40. A. strange B. pleasant C. difficult D. serious
[解析]37题从语法角度考虑四个选项都可以接受，但是从上下文考虑，文章中我们可以读到男主人和女主人之间是自愿签订了一个代替母亲做家务和照看孩子70天的合同。所以，自签订合同之日起，他将接替妻子所有的家务。D（ take over）选项从词义和语法上都符合上下文。40题可以从上文 的beaten down和下文的 impossible job可以判断出选择C（difficult）。
②. 根据生活常识及文化背景知识进行逻辑推理 完形填空往往以自身的内容提供完整的语篇信息，其间交织渗透着各类相关的文化背景知识和生活常识，考查考生灵活运用该方面知识的能力。解决这类题目，考生不仅要有广博的知识、丰富的生活经历，还要能够驾驭全文，不仅理解文章的表层意义，而且要弄清文章的深层意义。当对语言的把握不很准确时，可充分利用社会文化知识和生活常识来帮助判断。
[例2] But we ran so much that, afterwards, we had trouble 45 .
A. speaking B. sleeping C. breathing D. moving
[解析]第45小题 根据常识，一般跑得太多的结果是气喘吁吁，所以选breathing，表示跑后“喘不过气来”；而speaking和 sleeping都不是跑步所带来的特有结果；如果跑后不能moving（动）了，那就对身体损伤太大了，所以这个词太过分。
③. 根据词语的习惯用法和固定搭配来选择答案 词的固定搭配，特别是动词的搭配在完形填空题中出现的比例也是比较大的，多数题目涉及到动词的用法和各种搭配关系，这是由动词在句子中的重要性决定的。动词在搭配关系上与名词、介词、副词的用法紧密相关。解决这类题目要求考生多读、多记，对所学词语或固定搭配牢固掌握，并能灵活运用。
[例3] , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I used to see -- or look at -- on my way to work each morning.
A. Make B. Take C. Give D. Have
[解析]本题掌握take … for example这一固定搭配可知答案为B (Take)。
④. 根据词汇的意义及用法辨析词义从而确定答案 要做好这种题目，必须尽量将词语辨析与情节推理和逻辑推理结合起来，从词汇意义入手，抓住情节线索解决问题。
[例4] When the papers were , she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
A. examined B. completed C. marked D. answered
[解析] 本题考查动词辨义。空白处需要一个动词的过去分词与were 构成谓语。 各个选项都有可能是正确答案，迷惑项有较强的干扰性，因为该词可以构成考生比较熟悉的动宾搭配：examined the papers （审查试卷）、completed the papers（完成试卷）、marked the papers(批阅试卷)、answered the papers (回答试卷)。可下文是 “she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.（他发现 12个学生在考试中犯了完全一样的错误）”， 老师只有在“批阅给分”时才有可能发现这种情况，所以正确答案应为C(marked)。
由于许多词汇在上下文中以不同形式反复出现，请注意以下几点：
(1) 同一词上下文复现：很多正确选项常是上文或下文中出现的词。
(2) 同义词复现：and连接两同义的词或句子。happy and gay； unhappy and disappointed.
(3) 反义词复现： but 连接两个含义相对的词：small but neat； expensive but tasty； gave them reason to reflect on their past and plan for their future.
(4) 词汇链即不同词类的联想：如：believe和belief；think和thought；repairman 和fix one's car.
(5) 词义深层内涵的区别：如：“普通的”在英语中有多词可用，但含义不同。common： 强调事情发生的频率，非罕见的，如common sense； ordinary： 强调事物的等级、一般和日常、平凡之含义，如：ordinary people ；usual：强调习惯；general：强调大多数，较少例外；normal：含义为标准的，常态的。
⑤利用语法分析解题 完形填空题中也有考查语法知识的题目。对于他们，考生不仅要理解上下文的逻辑关系，更要有针对性地对语法结构、句式特点，对短文中所设空格中需填的词在句子里作什么成分，哪类词合适，应采取什么形式等等进行必要的分析思考，从而迅速解决问题。比如，选用动词就要考虑各种时态、语态、语气、谓语形式、非谓语形式、及物、不及物、持续性质、非持续性质、主谓搭配以及其如何与其它词类配合使用等一系列问题。熟练地掌握基础语法知识并运用其进行分析解答完形填空题是一种非常有效的解题方法。
[例5](2003全国卷) I played a racquetball game against my cousin Ed last week. It was one of the most surprising and tiring games I've ever had. When Ed first phoned and we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory. ……
A. declared B. mentioned C. persuaded D. suggested
[解析] 分析句子结构可看出we play应为宾语从句，只有suggest后的宾语从句的谓语用should加动词原形，should省略。又如：
（2004天津卷）I was leaving 49 several girls camp up to me.
A. while B. when C. as D. since
[解析] “be doing …when…”为常用句子结构，意思为“正在这个时候….”。所以选B.（ when）。
⑥．利用语篇标志解题 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：表示结构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 ；表示递进关系的有besides, what is more, further等; 表示时间关系的有 before, so far, yet, meantime, meanwhile, now, later等等。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。
[例6] （2004北京卷） What laughing 42 we had about the 43 respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth. 44 , I wanted to write about that, but I wanted to 45 it down simply for my own 46 , not for Mr. Fleagle, my composition teacher. 47 , I would write something else.
44. A. Especially B. Probably C. Suddenly D. Fortunately
[解析]第44小题考查依据语篇标志语做出判断的能力。文章一开始作者谈到由于写作文引发的一段回忆，回忆后提到“I wanted to write about it”。especially表示程度上的递进, 与上下文不符。 fortunately不符合语境， probably与“I wanted to write about it”前后矛盾，所以C（suddenly）为最佳选项。
⑦．利用排除法解题 有时我们会遇上这样的情况：对某个题目的正确选项的含义、用法不甚明了、但发现其它选项却有显而易见的谬误，这时候我们可以试试排除法：将干扰项逐项检查验证，凡发现有错误的选项，立即剔除出选择范围。随着选择范围的缩小，选项的准确率就会不断提高。经过这样分析推敲弃误留正，便会水落石出，找出正确答案。排除法如果运用得好，可以收到事半功倍的效果。
[例7] Waiting above the crowded streets, on top of a building 110 stories high, was Philippe Petit. This daring Frenchman was about to 31 a tightrope (绷索) between the two towers of the World Trade Center.
A. throw B. walk C. climb D. fix
[解析]考生如果对walk作及物动词的用法不是很熟悉，很难直接选出答案。在这种情况下运用排除法就会非常方便实用。我们可以先将明显不合题意的三项A、C、D排除掉。因为下文中提到 Philippe Petit 在绷索上走了七个来回（Philippe Petit made seven trips, back and forth）。所以很明显这个大胆的法国人不是在两楼之间扔（throw）绳子，也不是顺着绳子朝上攀登(climb)，更不是在两座楼间固定(fix)绳子。剩下的B(walk)当然是正确答案了。
⑧．摆脱定势逆向思维 考生如果学习方法不当，对某些知识点进行了过度强调，就会产生思维定势。例如过度强调make sb. do sth. 这一结构，当看到 make sb. 时就会不假思索地用不带to的不定式do sth.作宾语补足语。其实make sb. 后面也有可能接不定式短语的。如：The father made a paper tiger to please his son. 不过to please his son 不是宾语补足语，而是目的状语。思维定势使一些考生形成猜题的心理。完形填空题中常利用反猜手段设计一些似是而非的题目，利用学生的思维定势，诱导学生“误入歧途”。
[例8] I was very thin when I started football, but as a member of this team I wouldn’t eat much, because I was afraid of being too 48 to run. I feared making mistakes, and the added pressure caused me to make more than my usual 49 .
48. A. full B. tired C. lazy D. big
49. A. size B. share C. space D. state
[解析]第49小题前面提到making mistakes（犯错）及make more（犯更多错），根据意义应该找一个能代替错误的名词，本句句意并不是在讨论错误大小，size显然不对，它与more也不搭配；space（空间）、state（状态）都与错误没关系；B. share（份儿） 可以表示在错误中所占比例，与前面的more联系起来，可以说明犯更多的错。可是不少考生由于受定势思维影响，不敢选share，似乎永远在分东西时，才用share，而从没想过“错误”也用它，这充分证明学生的语言体验不足、掌握词义比较死板；其次也说明他们缺少把上下文与空白之间进行逻辑联系的能力。
总之，完形填空解题时要注意运用适当的技巧，克服急躁心理，试着从上下文角度、文化背景角度、生活常识角度、惯用法和固定搭配及语法和词义角度等多角度来进行分析，也就是把多种方法结合起来。
第三章： 高考完形填空命题展望
1) 难度上升或下降幅度不会很大
由于高考作为选拔性考试，必须具备应用的难度，以保证较高的信度和区分度，因此完形填空的难度不会随意陡增或陡降，每年它将参照其余五项(听力、单项填空、阅读理解、对话填空和书面表达)的难度作全盘调控。但预计今年完形填空的难度可能会“小幅度调升”。
2) 命题选材新颖，以记叙文为主旋律，叙中有议
文章选材的内容积极、时尚，把知识、教育、趣味融为一体。一般来说，记叙文贴近日常生活、学习和工作，反映社会现实情况，体现人文精神，是学生熟悉的内容；用记叙文考查学生完形能力能够比较客观地检测学生的英语水平，较好地体现考分的可信度和区分度，从而保证该项检测的公正准确性和科学鉴别效应。
3) 侧重语境用词考查
完形填空在挖空和编制选项两方面将越来越多地注重对考生在不同的语境情景中灵活用词能力的考查，纯词法、句法、固定搭配的考查点将越来越少。这种命题旨在考查学生的综合能力、思维能力、灵活运用能力和知识面。多数考点要求考生以语篇为线索，在掌握全盘的前提下，根据上下文内容及语境，运用科学的逻辑思维确定正确的选项。

（三）湖南卷
I returned to Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, after college graduation. I had been there before my mother became a minister.
Two weeks later, I told my mother I was bored. She said. “Here’re the car keys. Go and buy some fruit.” 36 , I jumped into the car and speeded off.
Seeing me or rather my 37 ,a boy sprang up(跳起来). 38 to sell his bananas and peanuts. “Banana 300 naira. Peanut 200 naira!”
Looking at his black-striped bananas, I 39 to 200 total for the fruit and nuts.
He 40 .I handed him a 500 naira note. He didn’t have 41 .So I told him not to worry. He was 42 and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I 43 this same boy. I was more aware of my position in Nigerian society. I should 44 this country as the son of a 45 .But it was hard to find pleasure in a place where it was so 46 to see a little boy who should have been in school selling fruit.
“What’s up ” I asked. He answered in 47 English, “I…I no get money to buy book. ” I took out two 500 naira notes. He looked around 48 before sticking his hand into the car 49 the bills. One thousand naira means a lot to a family that 50 only 50,000 each year.
The next morning, security officers told me, “In this place, when you give a little, people think you’re a fountain of opportunity(机会).”
51 it’s right, but this happens everywhere in the world. I wondered if my little friend had actually used the money for 52 .
After six months’ work in northern Nigeria, I returned and saw him again standing on the road.
“Are you in school now ”
He nodded.

I was also 49 by his words. After that, when I began to feel irritated (愤怒的) at someone, I 50 remember his words and become 51 .

高考学案教学法专题完形填空应试的策略与技巧
英语完形填空题主要考查学生阅读理解能力、逻辑思维能力和对具体语境的把握能力，设20处空白，每处空白要求学生从文下所给的四个选项中选择一个最佳选项作为答案。考生必须尽可能地利用短文中上下文中出现过的信息词、信息句去猜测推断意思，理解线索，弄清句与句之间、段落与段落之间的联系，从而达到全面理解整篇文章、进而找到最佳选项，使补全后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯、结构完整的目的。
第一章： 高考完形填空的特点
1）选材原汁原味，体现“跨文化意识”
一般说来，完形填空的选材多具有一定故事情景和教育意义的短文，其文体主要是记叙文，叙中有议。文章多选自原汁原味的英文报刊。由于英美报刊文章不同于中国人所写的英文文章，在遺词造句、行文布局、逻辑思维方面均与中国人有较大差异，因此考生往往会觉得短文“跳跃多”、“起伏大”。这种用原汁原味英文考查学生的选材方式意在保证该项测试的难度，并且对强化英语教学的“跨文化意识”发挥较好的作用。
2）设空及选项注重情景，考查综合运用语言能力
一般说来，文章长度大约300词，20处空白的平均词距约15词，7－20词左右设一空，首句一般不设空。选项多为单词，短语比较少见，侧重考查动词、名词、代词、形容词、副词等实词在具体语境中的得体使用，不少涉及词语辨析、情感、情理和逻辑思维，很少考点是单纯考短语搭配或语法规则，对考生的综合能力要求甚高。设空常注重以下几个方面：
① 语境用词
这类考点要求考生依据上下文情景、语境，甚至段落或文章，从四个选项中选出最佳答案。其涉及面非常广，如时间、地点、方向、情感、动作等等。解这类题的关键是选项要合情入理。
②词语辨析
完形填空中有些考点涉及词义辨析。这类考点可以一箭双雕，既考查考生对词语的掌握和词汇量的大小，对考查考生结合语境情景用词能力。与单项填空题的词语辨析题相比，完形填空题的词语辨析更具综合性。
③常识应用
从语言为实际生活服务这一基本原则出发，完形填空必然有考查常识的考点，借此也可以测试出学生的知识面和视野的开阔程度以及灵活运用常识理顺语句、语篇的能力。因此考生要注意在某些相关点利用生活常识进行合理思维，以选择正确答案。
④ 归纳概括
这类考点多见于议论文、说明文和科普文中，旨在检测考生的综合归纳、全面概括能力。要求考生高层建瓴，由段落或篇章中心去捕捉若干点的答案。
⑤ 逻辑推理
完形填空的逻辑推理题网涉及行文走势，句段的起承转合，事情发展的先后过程，开始与结果之间的关系，是与非的鉴别判断，时间、地点、人物、背景的相互牵连等。在议论文、科普文、夹叙夹议文体中，经常会出现这类考题。
处理这类问题，要抓住结构、语义及逻辑三条主线，在此基础上进行合理的推断和预测。答题时，首先要注意所选的答案填入空白处后整个句子语法结构是否合理；其次，看语义是否通顺，上下文是否连贯、呼应；第三，如果几个选项填入空白处，结构和语义没有问题，那就要从逻辑角度推理判断哪个选项填入最为合理。全文填空结束以后，应复读全文，核查意思是否合理，前后有无矛盾等。
第二章： 高考完形填空策略指导
I. 解题步骤
第一步：跳读首尾句，判断文体，预测主题。
一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句是不挖空的，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。
第二步：通读全文，把握大意。
做完形填空时要注意文章开头提示句的点题作用和短文中完整句的启示作用。首先要快速浏览全文，弄清各段落之间，各层次之间的内在联系，把握文章的完整性。只有这样才符合这种题型的解题思路。
第三步： 逐句细读，确定选项。
大致把握了全文的大意和作者的意图之后，就可以根据上下文，选取与文意最贴切的选项。此时，应遵循先易后难的原则，对有把握的选项“一锤定音”。对没有把握的选项不妨先放一放，接着往下看，往往会出现“柳暗花明”的情况。
第四步：再次阅读，复查答案。
复查时从意义和语法两个角度考虑，着眼于全篇。特别注意的是，我们所选的是“最佳”选项而不是“正确”答案。
上述三步可概括为：一步粗读寻思路，二步细读选答案，三步复读纠错误，若能沉着照此办，胸有成竹少失误。
II. 解题技巧
①. 根据上下文语境来确定最佳选项 近年来的完形填空试题在选项的设置上越来越淡化语法结构，重在文意的干扰，即把具体的语言知识溶进具体的语言情景中去，考查考生通过上下文的前后提示或暗示，对整体文意进行把握的能力。这种考查方式所占的比例较大，且难度也大，若单纯从句子或个别段落来分析，或许所给的四个答案在语法和结构上都是正确的，若放在全局，则不一定正确。因此，快速浏览全文，领悟文章主旨，通过上下文的语境来选择答案是解决这类题的关键。
[例1] (2004浙江卷) Bob had just made a “motherhood contract(合同)”—declaring that for 70 days this summer he would 37 the care of their four children and all the housework. Although he didn’t even know how to make coffee when he signed, he was very confident…. After 40 of the 70 days, he was ready to give up. “ I was beaten down, “ admits Bob. “Not only is motherhood a 40 task, it is an impossible job for any normal human being.”….
37. A. stick to B. set about C. think about D. take over
40. A. strange B. pleasant C. difficult D. serious
[解析]37题从语法角度考虑四个选项都可以接受，但是从上下文考虑，文章中我们可以读到男主人和女主人之间是自愿签订了一个代替母亲做家务和照看孩子70天的合同。所以，自签订合同之日起，他将接替妻子所有的家务。D（ take over）选项从词义和语法上都符合上下文。40题可以从上文 的beaten down和下文的 impossible job可以判断出选择C（difficult）。
②. 根据生活常识及文化背景知识进行逻辑推理 完形填空往往以自身的内容提供完整的语篇信息，其间交织渗透着各类相关的文化背景知识和生活常识，考查考生灵活运用该方面知识的能力。解决这类题目，考生不仅要有广博的知识、丰富的生活经历，还要能够驾驭全文，不仅理解文章的表层意义，而且要弄清文章的深层意义。当对语言的把握不很准确时，可充分利用社会文化知识和生活常识来帮助判断。
[例2] But we ran so much that, afterwards, we had trouble 45 .
A. speaking B. sleeping C. breathing D. moving
[解析]第45小题 根据常识，一般跑得太多的结果是气喘吁吁，所以选breathing，表示跑后“喘不过气来”；而speaking和 sleeping都不是跑步所带来的特有结果；如果跑后不能moving（动）了，那就对身体损伤太大了，所以这个词太过分。
③. 根据词语的习惯用法和固定搭配来选择答案 词的固定搭配，特别是动词的搭配在完形填空题中出现的比例也是比较大的，多数题目涉及到动词的用法和各种搭配关系，这是由动词在句子中的重要性决定的。动词在搭配关系上与名词、介词、副词的用法紧密相关。解决这类题目要求考生多读、多记，对所学词语或固定搭配牢固掌握，并能灵活运用。
[例3] , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I used to see -- or look at -- on my way to work each morning.
A. Make B. Take C. Give D. Have
[解析]本题掌握take … for example这一固定搭配可知答案为B (Take)。
④. 根据词汇的意义及用法辨析词义从而确定答案 要做好这种题目，必须尽量将词语辨析与情节推理和逻辑推理结合起来，从词汇意义入手，抓住情节线索解决问题。
[例4] When the papers were , she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
A. examined B. completed C. marked D. answered
[解析] 本题考查动词辨义。空白处需要一个动词的过去分词与were 构成谓语。 各个选项都有可能是正确答案，迷惑项有较强的干扰性，因为该词可以构成考生比较熟悉的动宾搭配：examined the papers （审查试卷）、completed the papers（完成试卷）、marked the papers(批阅试卷)、answered the papers (回答试卷)。可下文是 “she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.（他发现 12个学生在考试中犯了完全一样的错误）”， 老师只有在“批阅给分”时才有可能发现这种情况，所以正确答案应为C(marked)。
由于许多词汇在上下文中以不同形式反复出现，请注意以下几点：
(1) 同一词上下文复现：很多正确选项常是上文或下文中出现的词。
(2) 同义词复现：and连接两同义的词或句子。happy and gay； unhappy and disappointed.
(3) 反义词复现： but 连接两个含义相对的词：small but neat； expensive but tasty； gave them reason to reflect on their past and plan for their future.
(4) 词汇链即不同词类的联想：如：believe和belief；think和thought；repairman 和fix one's car.
(5) 词义深层内涵的区别：如：“普通的”在英语中有多词可用，但含义不同。common： 强调事情发生的频率，非罕见的，如common sense； ordinary： 强调事物的等级、一般和日常、平凡之含义，如：ordinary people ；usual：强调习惯；general：强调大多数，较少例外；normal：含义为标准的，常态的。
⑤利用语法分析解题 完形填空题中也有考查语法知识的题目。对于他们，考生不仅要理解上下文的逻辑关系，更要有针对性地对语法结构、句式特点，对短文中所设空格中需填的词在句子里作什么成分，哪类词合适，应采取什么形式等等进行必要的分析思考，从而迅速解决问题。比如，选用动词就要考虑各种时态、语态、语气、谓语形式、非谓语形式、及物、不及物、持续性质、非持续性质、主谓搭配以及其如何与其它词类配合使用等一系列问题。熟练地掌握基础语法知识并运用其进行分析解答完形填空题是一种非常有效的解题方法。
[例5](2003全国卷) I played a racquetball game against my cousin Ed last week. It was one of the most surprising and tiring games I've ever had. When Ed first phoned and we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory. ……
A. declared B. mentioned C. persuaded D. suggested
[解析] 分析句子结构可看出we play应为宾语从句，只有suggest后的宾语从句的谓语用should加动词原形，should省略。又如：
（2004天津卷）I was leaving 49 several girls camp up to me.
A. while B. when C. as D. since
[解析] “be doing …when…”为常用句子结构，意思为“正在这个时候….”。所以选B.（ when）。
⑥．利用语篇标志解题 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：表示结构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 ；表示递进关系的有besides, what is more, further等; 表示时间关系的有 before, so far, yet, meantime, meanwhile, now, later等等。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。
[例6] （2004北京卷） What laughing 42 we had about the 43 respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth. 44 , I wanted to write about that, but I wanted to 45 it down simply for my own 46 , not for Mr. Fleagle, my composition teacher. 47 , I would write something else.
44. A. Especially B. Probably C. Suddenly D. Fortunately
[解析]第44小题考查依据语篇标志语做出判断的能力。文章一开始作者谈到由于写作文引发的一段回忆，回忆后提到“I wanted to write about it”。especially表示程度上的递进, 与上下文不符。 fortunately不符合语境， probably与“I wanted to write about it”前后矛盾，所以C（suddenly）为最佳选项。
⑦．利用排除法解题 有时我们会遇上这样的情况：对某个题目的正确选项的含义、用法不甚明了、但发现其它选项却有显而易见的谬误，这时候我们可以试试排除法：将干扰项逐项检查验证，凡发现有错误的选项，立即剔除出选择范围。随着选择范围的缩小，选项的准确率就会不断提高。经过这样分析推敲弃误留正，便会水落石出，找出正确答案。排除法如果运用得好，可以收到事半功倍的效果。
[例7] Waiting above the crowded streets, on top of a building 110 stories high, was Philippe Petit. This daring Frenchman was about to 31 a tightrope (绷索) between the two towers of the World Trade Center.
A. throw B. walk C. climb D. fix
[解析]考生如果对walk作及物动词的用法不是很熟悉，很难直接选出答案。在这种情况下运用排除法就会非常方便实用。我们可以先将明显不合题意的三项A、C、D排除掉。因为下文中提到 Philippe Petit 在绷索上走了七个来回（Philippe Petit made seven trips, back and forth）。所以很明显这个大胆的法国人不是在两楼之间扔（throw）绳子，也不是顺着绳子朝上攀登(climb)，更不是在两座楼间固定(fix)绳子。剩下的B(walk)当然是正确答案了。
⑧．摆脱定势逆向思维 考生如果学习方法不当，对某些知识点进行了过度强调，就会产生思维定势。例如过度强调make sb. do sth. 这一结构，当看到 make sb. 时就会不假思索地用不带to的不定式do sth.作宾语补足语。其实make sb. 后面也有可能接不定式短语的。如：The father made a paper tiger to please his son. 不过to please his son 不是宾语补足语，而是目的状语。思维定势使一些考生形成猜题的心理。完形填空题中常利用反猜手段设计一些似是而非的题目，利用学生的思维定势，诱导学生“误入歧途”。
[例8] I was very thin when I started football, but as a member of this team I wouldn’t eat much, because I was afraid of being too 48 to run. I feared making mistakes, and the added pressure caused me to make more than my usual 49 .
48. A. full B. tired C. lazy D. big
49. A. size B. share C. space D. state
[解析]第49小题前面提到making mistakes（犯错）及make more（犯更多错），根据意义应该找一个能代替错误的名词，本句句意并不是在讨论错误大小，size显然不对，它与more也不搭配；space（空间）、state（状态）都与错误没关系；B. share（份儿） 可以表示在错误中所占比例，与前面的more联系起来，可以说明犯更多的错。可是不少考生由于受定势思维影响，不敢选share，似乎永远在分东西时，才用share，而从没想过“错误”也用它，这充分证明学生的语言体验不足、掌握词义比较死板；其次也说明他们缺少把上下文与空白之间进行逻辑联系的能力。
总之，完形填空解题时要注意运用适当的技巧，克服急躁心理，试着从上下文角度、文化背景角度、生活常识角度、惯用法和固定搭配及语法和词义角度等多角度来进行分析，也就是把多种方法结合起来。
第三章： 高考完形填空命题展望
1) 难度上升或下降幅度不会很大
由于高考作为选拔性考试，必须具备应用的难度，以保证较高的信度和区分度，因此完形填空的难度不会随意陡增或陡降，每年它将参照其余五项(听力、单项填空、阅读理解、对话填空和书面表达)的难度作全盘调控。但预计今年完形填空的难度可能会“小幅度调升”。
2) 命题选材新颖，以记叙文为主旋律，叙中有议
文章选材的内容积极、时尚，把知识、教育、趣味融为一体。一般来说，记叙文贴近日常生活、学习和工作，反映社会现实情况，体现人文精神，是学生熟悉的内容；用记叙文考查学生完形能力能够比较客观地检测学生的英语水平，较好地体现考分的可信度和区分度，从而保证该项检测的公正准确性和科学鉴别效应。
3) 侧重语境用词考查
完形填空在挖空和编制选项两方面将越来越多地注重对考生在不同的语境情景中灵活用词能力的考查，纯词法、句法、固定搭配的考查点将越来越少。这种命题旨在考查学生的综合能力、思维能力、灵活运用能力和知识面。多数考点要求考生以语篇为线索，在掌握全盘的前提下，根据上下文内容及语境，运用科学的逻辑思维确定正确的选项。

I know I should have told the headmaster at the time. That was my real 36 . He had gone out of the study for some 37 , leaving me alone. In his absence I looked to see 38 was on his desk. In the 39 was a small piece of paper on which were written the 40 “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Serious of Biographies (人物传记)”.
A(n) 41 boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the 42 . I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a 43 until the start of the exam so I could not 44 reading it.
