【解析】1.B 2.D 由wide modern roads和well maintained可知第1题选B，第2题选D。 (3)因果同现 【例】“Hooray！” shouted the crowd.It was the loudest ________ I had ever heard at a meeting.The firstplace runner was two laps ahead of me when she crossed the finishing line. A．cheer B．shout C．cry D．noise 【解析】A 由Hooray，runner和finishing line 可知选A。 (4)结构同现 【例】Sometimes he would invite a student to a game of chess.________，he would join student groups to discuss a variety of subjects: agriculture，diving，mathematics. A．As a matter of fact
B．Later on C．Other times
D．In general 【解析】C 由前文中sometimes可知选C。 (5)同义同现 【例】If a student has problems with classroom work，the student should either ________ a professor during office hours or make an appointment. A．greet B．attach C．approach D．annoy 【解析】C 由后文中make an appointment可知选C。 12. 根据逻辑推理解题 (即根据上文信息推理和根据下文信息推理) 根据上下文的逻辑关系来推断正确答案，逻辑关系包括因果关系、对比关系、并列关系、转折关系、让步关系、递进关系、条件与结果的关系等。从几年来的东高考完形填空题来看，最多的是利用因果关系来推断正确答案。 请运用逻辑推断，解答以下试题，并指出正确选项是根据什么逻辑关系推断出来的。
(1)根据上文信息推理 【例1】On April 12,1888，Alfred's brother Ludwig died of heart attack.A major French newspaper mistook his brother for him and…“Dr.Alfred Nobel，who became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before，died yesterday.” Nobel was ________ to find out not that he had died，but that，when his time was up，he would be thought of only as one who profited from death and destruction. A．upset B．anxious C．excitedD．pleased 【解析】A 前面讲报道中的两件事：一是报社误以为诺贝尔的兄弟就是他，并且死了，二是说他是靠发现更快的杀人方式发财。根据生活常识，作为诺贝尔本人，看到这篇报道，不可能感到“渴望(anxious)”“兴奋(excited)”或“高兴(pleased)”，而应当是“不高兴(upset)”，故选A。本句大意：诺贝尔感到不快，不是因为报社误解他死了，而是在他死后被认为是一个靠制造死亡和毁灭而赚钱的人。 【例2】It was then feared that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and replaced the human baby with a fairy Changeling.There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby's head while he slept or covering him with some of his father's clothes were just two of the recommended methods.However，hope was not lost even if the baby had been________. A．missed B．stolen C．found D．lost
【解析】B 空格前两句说人们害怕仙女来偷小孩(stolen the baby away)及其阻止此事发生的方法，所以空格句应是“即使小孩被偷走了，也还是有希望的”，故选B。
(2)根据下文信息推理 【例1】Not all of these fairies are the friendly，peopleloving characters that appear in Disney films，and in some folktales they are ________ and cause much human suffering. A．powerful B．cruel C．frightened D．extraordinary
【解析】B 根据空格后面的信息“and cause much human suffering(会造成人类的痛苦)”可以推断出，“在某些民间故事中，仙女是残酷的”，故选B (cruel)。 【例2】To make sure that he was __26__ with love and respect，Nobel arranged in his __27__ to give the largest part of his money to establish the Nobel prizes，which would be awarded to people who made great contributions to the causes of peace，literature，and the sciences.So basically，Nobel had to die before he realized what his life was really about.
26．A.repaid B．described C．supported D．remembered 27．A.book B．article C．will D．contract 【解析】26.D 由空格后面的信息“诺贝尔在遗嘱中安排捐出他的钱来设立诺贝尔奖……”可以推出，其目的是为了让自己被别人爱戴与尊敬地“纪念，铭记(remembered)”他，而不是“报答(repaid)”“描述(described)”“支持(supported)”他，从而改变当时人们对他的看法，故选D。
27．C 由最后一句中的die这一关键词可以得到启示，设立诺贝尔奖应是在他的“遗嘱(will)”中作的安排，故选C。
众所周知，完形填空是考查考生利用上下文语境逻辑推断空格处未知信息的试题，因此利用正向推断法、逆向推断法和正向逆向联合推断法可以巧妙解答完形填空题。 【例1】(2017广东)One man left and the other stayed, but they did not __9__ the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was __10__ with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were __11__. It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were __12__ able to fool the crow. 9．A. foolB. hurt
C. catch
D. kill
【解析】9.A 由but可知，他们并没能“欺骗”那只乌鸦。与下文fool the crow中的fool是原词复现，也就是说从此可以得到启示。故选A。 【例2】All of a sudden I started to feel rather __1__.She wondered why I was looking for this sort of __2__.I felt even more helpless when she told me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience. 1．A.encouraged B．dissatisfied C．helpless
D．pleased 2．A.place B．job C．advice D．help
【解析】1.C 2.B 由后文中helpless和job可知第1题选C，第2题选B。
(2)同义词、近义词复现。同义词、近义词复现是借助意思相同或相近的表达方式，或解释性的语言使上下文的语义得以连接起来。
【例1】There were many ways to prevent this from happening：hanging a knife over the baby's head while he slept or covering him with some of his father's clothes were just two of the recommended ________. A．cases B．tools C．steps D．methods
【解析】D 前句说“避免这类的事发生有许多方法(ways)”，冒号后的解释，“在小孩睡觉时在其头上悬挂一把刀，或者用其父亲的裤子盖着他，就是其中值得推荐的两种________”，承前逻辑，自然是其中的两种“方法”，与ways同义的是methods，故选D。 【例2】That is what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the________of it. The value in dollars is not important; we do it for the pleasure it gives us. A．benefitB．good C．fun D．interest 【解析】C 由后文的pleasure可知此处应该填fun。故选C。
(3)反义词复现。语意的连贯有时是通过对比结构而采用反义复现的手段，或者是以反义的方式对前文加以解释，考生可以从反义的角度判断正确的选项。
【例】Forcing yourself to recall almost never helps because it doesn't ________ your money；it only tightens it. A．loosen B．weaken C．decrease D．reduce 【解析】由文中doesn't 和tightens可知答案选A。
(4)同源词复现。对于上下文语义复现的表达，还可借助复现信息的同源词或同根词。如： 【例1】Many are concerned that gifted children become bored and lose interest in learning.However，this ________ is more often from parents and teachers than from students… A．concern B．conclusion C．reflection D．interest
【解析】A 因concern (n.担心)与上文的concerned (adj.担心的)是同源词复现或同根词复现。故选A。 【例2】Many teachers believe that the responsibilities for learning lie with the students.If a long reading assignment is given，the instructors expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading…When research is ________，the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with minimum guidance. A．collected B．assigned C．distributed D．finished
【解析】B 由前文中reading assignment 可知选B。
(5)上下义词复现。上义词具有概括的作用。在篇章中，有时为了表达的需要，作者会先概述，再分述。概述时用的为上义词，分述则用比较具体的下义词，两者为总分关系。如： 【例1】However，this concern is more often from parents and teachers than from students，and some of these ________ simply conclude that special classes should be set up for those who are talented. A．students B．adults C．scholars D．teachers
【解析】B 因adults是上文parents and teachers的上义词，即这是上下义词复现。故选B。
【例2】Other times，he would join student groups to discuss a variety of ________：agriculture，diving and mathematics. A．questions B．subjects C．matters D．contents 【解析】B 由后文的agriculture，diving和mathematics可知答案选B。 9. 注意习惯用语，熟记常见句型 答题时可以通过分析习惯用语、固定搭配等搭配关系和句子结构，进行有效的推理判断，从而选出正确选项。因此，同学们平时要有意识地识记一些常用的习惯用语、固定搭配，学会分析句子结构。不仅要记忆这些搭配，还要学会灵活运用，准确判断。对常见句型的掌握也很重要。有些句型在经过反复使用后，会形成一定的积极的思维定势，这对确定题目答案很有帮助。 【例】(2017天津卷) It was then ______ I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on balancing family and work. A. when B. where C. which D. that 【解析】D 句意为：正是那时起“我”才开始理解她要在家庭和工作之间平衡，做出决定有多艰难。此句强调句，对句子的时间状语then进行强调，句式为：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that…。故选D项。 高考完形填空所选文章都堪称精品，其逻辑必是上下贯通，无懈可击，其结构也必是自然有序，脉络清晰。因此，做完一篇完形填空以后，考生心里对文章的线索、脉络以及主旨、寓意等也应该有一种很“明朗”的感觉；如果做完以后，还是似懂非懂，犹如“雾里看花”，那就证明对文章的理解还有问题，还要复读全文，验证答案。
考生可以从文章的内在逻辑入手，看所选答案是否经得起推敲，是否能自然融入整个语篇，如果有游离于文章主旨之外或与整篇的逻辑相矛盾的答案，就需要重新理解、修正。
10. 根据并列关系解题 并列，就是指由and或or连接的并列成分(因果关系、类属关系、同类关系、相对关系等)
(1)因果关系 【例】These tell the story of a mother whose baby grows ___ and pale and has changed so much that it is almost unrecognizable to the parents. A．sickB．slim C．shortD．small 【解析】A 选项中只有sick才与pale有相关性(因果关系)，即因为“生病”，所以脸色才会“苍白”，故选A。 (2)同类关系 【例】Edgar Allan Poe，whose life was short and seemingly unhappy，wrote stories and poems of mystery and ________，insanity(疯狂) and death. A．happiness B．science C．society D．terror
【解析】D 因为只有terror(恐怖)才与mystery(神秘)、insanity(疯狂)和death(死亡)是表示同类意义的名词，而不可能是与“happiness(幸福)”“science(科学)”或“society(社会)”并列，故选D。
(3)类属关系 【例】Edgar Allan Poe is also remembered as the father of modern detective fiction，stories of an investigator who has to solve murders and other______. A．accidents B．crimes C．events D．incidents
【解析】B 因为“murder(凶杀)”是各种“crimes(犯罪)”行为中的一种，所以与“murder(凶杀)”并列应是“其他各种犯罪行为”，故选B。
(4)相对关系 【例】When Christ was born nearly two thousand years ago，many people，rich and ________，gave him presents. A．ill B．healthy C．poor D．tall 【解析】C 因为由句意可知，应当是指“耶稣出生时，许多人，无论贫富，都给他礼物”，故选择与rich相对意义的poor，即选C。
11. 根据找同现情形解题 同现指意义上相互联系的单词同时出现在同一句话或同一语篇中，以确保语篇的和谐性、得体性。由于单词意义的差别、所使用的语境不同，因此所使用的上下文也各有差异。 (1)场所同现 【例】On ________ days，she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. A．sunnyB．rainy C．cloudyD．snowy 【解析】D 由heavy clothes和woolen gloves可知选D。 (2)修饰同现 【例】Although these wide modern roads are generally __1__ and well maintained，with little sharp curves and many straight __2__，a direct route is not always the most enjoyable one. 1．A.stable B．smooth C．splendid D．complicated 2．A.selections B．separations C．series D．sections
【解析】41.A 根据文章首句“通常来说，当各种活动变成常规的时候都会让你觉得厌倦。”可知，这是一个原则、规律，我们可以在各个年龄段的人们身上发现这样一个规律，故选A。 3. 根据上下文语境，合理推断来解题 【例1】(2017新课标Ⅰ卷)When parents bring home a pet, their child__48__bathes it and brushes its fur. Within a short time, however, the__49__of caring for the animal is handed over to the parents. Adolescents enter high school with great__50__but are soon looking forward to__51__. The same is true of the young adults going to college. And then, how many__52__， who now complain (抱怨) about the long drives to work，__53__drove for hours at a time when they first__54__their driver's licenses (执照)?
52．A.children B．students C．adults D．retirees 【解析】52.C 在前几句里叙述了小孩子、上高中的青年和上大学的年轻人的情况之后，本句开始讲述成年人的情况。根据下文提到的开车上班也可知此处说的是已经工作的成年人。故选C。
【例2】(2017新课标Ⅰ卷)We were asked to “__37__a disability” for several hours one Sunday. Some members，__38__， chose to use wheelchairs. Others wore soundblocking earplugs (耳塞) or blindfolds (眼罩)．
Just sitting in the wheelchair was a__39__experience. I had never considered before how__40__it would be to use one. As soon as I sat down，my__41__made the chair begin to roll. Its wheels were not__42__.
38. A．instead B．strangely C．as usual D．like me 【解析】38.D 前面提到每个人都需要选择一个项目，有些人选择了轮椅，有些人选择了耳塞或眼罩。从下文可知，我也是选择了轮椅。故选D。 4. 利用语篇标志解题 常见语篇标志词语：①结构层次：firstly，secondly，thirdly；②逻辑关系：thus，therefore，so；③递进关系： besides，what's more，further; ④转折关系：but，while，however，on the other hand等。抓住语篇标志有利于理清文章的网络及上下文的联系。因此在学习过程中要善于总结积累，注意分类学习。
【例】She told the frontdesk clerk she had had a(n) ______ vacation，but was heartbroken about losing several rolls of Kodak color film she had not yet developed. A．disappointing B．wonderful C．uncomfortable D．important
【解析】B 由but和heartbroken可知选B。
因此，我们要善于找出(“三找”):
一找：逻辑关系(转折、让步、解释、对立、因果、并列、总分、递进) 二找：NOT(在原文中找not) 三找：AND(在原文中找and)
5．利用文化背景知识和生活常识答题 考生在做题时，若能积极地调动自己的文化背景知识和生活常识，巧妙地加以运用，特别是注意中西文化的差异，将会大大简化复杂的分析与判断过程，节省宝贵的时间，顺利地按照作者的思路阅读下去。 【例1】(2015陕西卷)Dad didn't come home as early as much as he used to, Mum and I became __33__ with him for placing our family in trouble. 33．A.satisfied B．delighted C．mad D．Strict 【解析】33.C 考查常识。 父亲让家人陷入到困境中，作者和母亲的正常反应应该是生气。be mad with意为“对……很生气”，符合语境。 【例2】(2017新课标Ⅰ卷)For example, on Christmas morning, children are excited about__43__with their new toys.
43．A.working B．living C．playing D．going 【解析】43.C 由常识可知，孩子们在圣诞节早上会收到礼物，因此他们是在圣诞节早上玩玩具。故选C。 【例3】…the girl was able to lead her birds to run across the grass, but she could not teach them to ________. A．fly B．race C．swim D．sing 【解析】A 根据常识，人类可以race，swim 或sing，但是不会直接像鸟一样振翅飞翔，因此小女孩不能教给鸟儿“飞翔”，故答案为A。 6. 利用惯用法和固定搭配解题 所谓前后搭配(动词与介词的搭配、动词与其宾语的搭配、句式结构上的搭配和习语搭配等)。在解答完形填空时，充分考虑这些搭配关系，有助于我们作出正确选择。 (1)动介搭配 根据动词与其后介词的搭配关系来选择一个恰当的动词。 【例】(2017广东)On April 12,1888，Alfred's brother Ludwig died of heart attack.A major French newspaper ______ his brother for him and... A．foundB．misunderstood C．mistook D．judged 【解析】C 能与“X for Y”搭配的在四个选项中只有选项C，mistake X for Y意为“误以为X是Y”，故选C。 (2)动宾搭配 根据动词与其宾语是否可以搭配、在意义上是否符合逻辑或常识来确定选用哪个动词。 【例1】 Nobel arranged in his will to give the largest part of his money to ________ the Nobel prizes，which would be awarded to people who… A．establish B．form C．develop D．promote
【解析】A 在不定式短语中，宾语是“诺贝尔奖”，动词该用哪一个？设立？形成？发展？促进？根据常识，能与“奖项”搭配的，在这四个选项中只有“设立”，故选A。
【例2】They couldn't read or write.They didn't like to work and they never ________ baths. A．took B．washed C．ran D．Covered 【解析】A 本题考查的是固定搭配，take a bath意为“洗澡”。
(3)句式搭配 根据句式或句型的搭配来确定填哪一个词。 【例3】 The book tells us of useful skills such as how to put what you have learned into pictures of your mind to ________ your memory better. A．make B．turn C．let D．change
【解析】A 在四个选项中，能接“宾语＋形容词作宾补”的只有选A，make your memory better意为“使你的记忆力变得更好”，故选A。
(4)习语搭配 根据习惯用语的固定搭配来确定正确选项。
【例1】 Intellectual property (IP) (知识产权) is a product of the mind that has commercial value.The concept ________ back to 1623 when the first patent law to protect IP rights was passed. A．holds B．dates C．sets D．Turns 【解析】 B date back to是惯用短语，意为“追溯到”，故选B。
值得注意的是，解题时，不能一看到搭配就选答案，这样往往容易出错。因为有时单独看空格前后或单独看空格所在句，除正确答选项外，其他选项也可能与其前后构成搭配，这时，还需要根据上下文的意思和逻辑，同时也需要结合生活常识才能定夺。 【例2】 Nobel arranged in his will to give the largest part of his money to establish the Nobel prizes，which would be awarded to people who made great ________ to the causes of peace，literature，and the sciences. A．additions B．sacrifices C．changes D．contributions 【解析】D 四个选项都可构成习语搭配： make additions to“给……增加”；make sacrifices to“对……做出牺牲”；make changes to“对……作修改”；make contributions to“对……作贡献”。但根据句意和常识，奖项应当奖给那些为和平、文学和科学“作出贡献”的人，故选D。
7. 从词语辨析的角度来解题 【例】Soon we heard a ________ like that of a door burst in, and then footsteps. A．sound B．cry C．voice D．shout
【解析】A 由语境可排除cry和shout，sound泛指任何声音，不论其高低、是否悦耳等；voice用于人时，指说话、歌唱或发笑的声音，也可指发言权。用于其他方面时，常含悦耳之声，如鸟鸣声，乐器声音等。所以此处选sound最合适。故选A。 8. 利用原词复现，寻找近义短语，注意语境选词题 在做完形填空题时，考生必须借助对上下文的理解才能得出答案，有时首段的信息会决定末段设空题目的答案。有些词语常常重复出现在语篇之中，而词汇复现的语用意义使得语篇中的句子相互衔接和连贯，从而构成一个完整、有机的意义整体。
在阅读文章的过程中，有时也会发现一些与选项意义紧密相连的同义词或近义词。因此，考生必须注意上下文的连贯性及逻辑性，结合全文的语境并运用逻辑思维进行答题。 【例】(2015湖南卷)Hoping that no one would notice that I was __38__inside, I threw my voice as far as it would reach: “Put your heads on the desks and close your __39__！ We are going on a journey.” … Obediently(顺从地), my class lay their heads on their desks, closed their eyes and __42__. 39．A. eyes B. mouths C. books D. doors
【解析】根据42空前面的“closed their eyes”可以得知此处答案为eyes, 故选A项。 复现是一种词汇衔接手段，它通过原词、同义词、反义词、上义词、下义词、同源词或同根词等形式，重复出现来表达某一概念，使整篇文章上下连贯，有机地衔接在一起。因此，考生可根据文章的具体情况，理解文章的结构和语境，利用文章中的复现现象来选择正确答案。 (1)原词复现。为了表达的需要，在具体的上下文中同一个单词重复出现。如： 第三节 完形填空 1．2017～2015年新课标全国Ⅰ卷英语高考完形填空分析 年份 体裁 题材 考查点 总词数 名词 动词 形容词 副词 连词 短语 2015 记叙文 人际关系 7 6 3 2 1 1 261 年份 体裁 题材 考查点 总词数 名词 动词 形容词 副词 连词 短语 2017 议论文 生活感悟 7 5 5 3 0 0 251 2017 夹叙夹 议文 个人经历 7 7 3 1 0 2 241 一、命题趋势 1．体裁、题材多样，考察学生涉猎各种信息的能力。 体裁有记叙文、说明文等；题材涉及到趣味故事、幽默小品、科普知识、日常生活、人物小记、社会热点话题等等。短文一般文章短小，情节连贯，层次分明，线索清楚。目的是考查学生是否有阅读各种体裁、题材文章的能力以及获取各种新息的能力。
2．侧重整体理解、考查学生快速阅读理解能力。 完型填空题解答需要学生具备视读、跳读、查读、猜词等各种快速阅读技巧。因为解题时间有限，在短短的时间内，要完成全文和选项的阅读，还要进行正确判断、推理、核查等工作。可见阅读速度非常重要。
3．侧重基础知识，考查学生语言知识的能力。 完形填空以文入手，结合文章的内容考查学生的基础知识，主要是词语搭配、近义词辨 异、辨析句子结构、掌握语法规则的能力。
4．上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力。 解完形填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。
5．设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力。 旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。
6．结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力。 目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。
二、命题规律 1. 考查语境语义。 语境语义的考查是完形填空中考查的重要内容之一，基本贯穿篇章的始末。此时，不仅要求考生能掌握高考考纲要求的基本词汇，还要求考生能根据上下文、整个段落或整篇文章，来推敲、寻找线索，以得出正确答案。这类考点常常涉及时间、地点、方向、情感、动作等。 【例1】(2015新课标全国Ⅰ卷)My kids and I were heading into the supermarket over the weekend. On the way, we spotted a man holding a piece of paper that said, “Lost my job. Family to Feed.” At this store, a ______ like this is not nomal. A．condition B．place C．sight D．show 【解析】C 句意为：在路上，我们注意到一名男子握着一张纸，纸上写道：“失业，需要养家。”在这家商店(门前)，像这样的场景并不常见。condition意为“状况”；place意为“地方”； sight意为“镜像，场景；视力”； show意为“表演；展览；展示”。根据上文语境，结合下文中的like this可知，该空是指上文所描述的场景。故选C项。
2．考查习语搭配 英语中的一些固定句型和固定短语是完形填空的常考考点，做题时要注意所填之词与设空处前后词语的习惯搭配。 【例2】(2015江苏卷)The stories of his unconventional ideas and the exceptional patients he wrote about were so amazing to me and had such a big ______ on how I saw life from then on. A．strike
B．push
C．challengeD．impact 【解析】D have an impact on…意为“对……产生影响”，为固定搭配。故选D项。
3. 考查词义辨析 词义辨析主要体现在同义词、近义词的辨析。要做好这类题目，考生要有丰富的词汇量及较强的词语搭配能力。
【例3】 When the curtain dropped，So did my hopes for the evening.I sobbed bitterly，tasting the salt from the tears that streamed down my face. I ran backstage，but no one could _______ me down. A．turn
B．calm C．1etD．put
【解析】B 从前文“I sobbed bitterly(我哭得很伤心)”得知没有人能够让“我”平静下来。tnrn sb. down意为“拒绝某人”；let sb.down意为“使某人失望”；put down意为“放下”。只有calm down(使平静)符合语境。故选B项。
4. 考查经验常识 完形填空的某些考题会涉及生活常识、文化背景知识、科普知识等。
【例4】(2017新课标全国Ⅰ卷)When parents bring home a pet, their child ______ bathes it and brushes its fur. A．silently B．impatiently C．gladly D．worriedly 【解析】C 根据常识确定答案：父母把宠物带回家时，孩子的反应肯定是很高兴。故本题选C项。
5. 考查语法结构 尽管近几年的高考英语完形填空主要考查考生对语境的理解，单纯考查语法知识的题极少，甚至没有，但借助语法分析来理解句子、推测语境、判断搭配却是必不可少的。
【例5】Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told someone you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then ______ later you had kept your mouth shut? A．wished B．wondered C．blamed D．shared
【解析】A 本句要填谓语动词，主句的时态为现在完成时，后面宾语从句的谓语动词为had kept，是过去完成时，因而推断出是虚拟用法，选项中只有wish后面的宾语从句需用虚拟语气，故选A项。 一、解题步骤 1. 通读全文， 理解大意 重视首句信息， 越过空格，通读全文，理顺题意，找出信息词，建立语言的整体感。这是做好完形填空题的关键。因为完形填空题的特点是着眼于整体理解。
完形填空虽然篇幅短小，但却是一个完整的语篇。考生一定要在把握全文大意的基础上进行推断，否则很容易背离全文的主题，连续出现错误。故考生在解题过程中切忌就句论句，首先要弄清文章的中心思想。
2. 细读首尾，推测意图 文章的首句是全文的“窗口”，尾句是文章的总结、结论或点睛之笔。这样，通过阅读首句和尾句，就可以了解背景知识，对于空格位置的词语进行大胆分析和判断，以便揣测作者的意图，理顺思路，为后面的答题做好铺垫。
3. 瞻前顾后， 避难就易 在通读全文的基础上，根据全文大意，展开逻辑思维，瞻前顾后，分析这一空格处在 句中的地位，前后的关系和它所起的作用，认真观察选项，仔细推敲，确定最佳答案。要做题时，先解决那些自己有把握的问题。对少数难题， 暂时跳过， 或许在上文中难以判断的题在下文中就有暗示或者明显的提示， 或许一个在前面不能解答的题在填出了另一空后会令你豁然开朗。
4. 复读全文， 解决残敌 借助已经补全的空格， 我们已对全文有了更清楚的理解， 可以解决所遗留的个别难题。全部做好后， 考生务必要结合自己选择的答案重新阅读短文内容， 确保全文文意连贯。 二、解题技巧点拔 1. 通览全文，抓准主旨 完形填空的命题原则一般是文章第一句不设空，以使得考生快速进入语境，把握整篇文章。试题所选短文是一个完整的统一体，词、句、段三者之间存在一定的逻辑关系，因此解题时考生要充分利用文章的首句、首段抓住文章主旨大意，对文章进行合乎逻辑的推理判断，从而顺藤摸瓜选出正确答案。
【例】(2015全国新课标Ⅰ卷)My 10yearold noticed him and made a comment on how bad it must be to have to stand __44__ in the cold wind. 44．A.outsideB．proudly C．byD．angrily
【解析】44.A 由文章首段可知，作者带孩子去超市购物，遇见一个需要养家的失业者在门口乞讨，此处表达这个人应该是不得不在外面的寒风中乞讨，故选A项。 另外，要给文章进行准确定位，考生不仅要重视文章的首句，有时也应注意文章的结尾，首尾联系起来，对文章的定位会更准确。有些文章的作者按照事情发生、发展的顺序叙述，最后才点明故事的结局，揭示事件的哲理；只有读懂了故事的结局，吃透文章的寓意，考生才能对文章进行准确定位。因而可以跳空猜读全文之后再对题目做出选择。 2. 利用首句来解题，根据全文来选择
首句一般不设空。因此我们应重视首句，并利用首句预测短文的问题和全文内容。
【例】(2017新课标Ⅰ卷)As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine (常规) basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this__41__at work in people of all ages.
41. A．principleB．habit C．way D．power
