? ? ? ?①重點讀懂第一段第一句。
完形填空在這一點和閱讀理解很像，經(jīng)常會在第一段第一句引出文章議題，只要讀懂這一句就能把握文章主要方向，做題也瞬間容易了。例如:
Some people worry about my collecting of those fascinatingbirds and animals that they pay to see in the z00. One of the questions that is always askedis_ 51 I became an animal collector.
②圈出選項與文章相同的詞。
只要發(fā)現(xiàn)題目選項有與文章相同的詞，一定要圈出來并加以推敲，極有可能就是答案。例如:
But_ 54 , after long waiting, the company posted each person such a letter. If the_ 58 letter surprised and delighted thousands of employees, the second letter almost_ 59 _them to tears.
以下為第54題的選項:
A. to their surprise
B. to their despair
C. with good luck
D. with bad luck
根據(jù)全文情景，本題可選A或C，但是因為后文再次出現(xiàn)了A選項的 surprise,所以選A的理由更加充分。這種技巧，每年完形幾乎都能用得上!
③圈出同義詞&反義詞。
只要發(fā)現(xiàn)題目選項有與文章相關(guān)的同義詞或反義詞，一定要圈出來，答案通常就在這些詞里面。例如:
(1) As he puts himself in his student's place, he is able to understand his_ 52 and they're able to understand him.
A. pupils
B. classmates
C. fellows
D. friends
文中出現(xiàn)的student和A選項的pupil (學(xué)生，常指小學(xué)生)相近,而答案的確就是A。
(2) The second letter almost_ 59 _them to tears.So who would not be touched by such care?
A. moved
B. changed
C. swept
D. hit
文中的touch有“感動”的意思，與A選項的move“感動”對應(yīng)。

完形也會考到從句和固定搭配，所以學(xué)好從句以及記好固搭配不僅對單項有用，對完形也大有裨益。例如:
56 I grew a little older, we lived in Greece.
A. Since
B. Although
C. When
D. So
時間狀語從句，選C。
I have a_ 57 number of pets, ranging from snakes to seahorses.
A. many
B. much
C. great
D. big
固定搭配a great number of (大量) ，故選C。
?、萃嘏懦?。
有時候有的選項屬于同一類型，簡而言之，如果選了其中一個另外一個也符合，這就造成了沖突，所以兩者或三者都應(yīng)排除。例如:
58 , because people today live longer after an ilness than people did years before.
A. Therefore
B. However
C. Moreover
D. Whereas
選項B和D都可表示“ 然而”，屬于同元素，因此可以優(yōu)先排除。
Just as the chairman_ 62 , on the day of receiving the second letter, thousands of employees rushed back to the company.
A. did
B. acted
C. expected
D. understood
選項A和B放到第62題里，都可表示"正如老板所做的一樣"，屬于同元素，因此可以優(yōu)先排除。
