三、解题技巧
1、从具体的语言情境考虑。
例1 Mrs O'Neill asked questions, and she didn't scold us either.
(A.no B. certain C. many D. more
(B.该题可通过下句中的“either”一词，可以推断出该句是一个否定句，故选A。
例2 First of all he was a windowcleaner and in his first week he managed to break at least six windows. Then he became a bus conductor and on his second day a passenger stole his bag with all the fares collected. He 1 lost his job as a postman 2 he sent off all the letters when he should have taken them to people's houses. It seemed that there was 3 suitable work for him.
1. A. thus B. even C. once D. only
2. A. even if B. so that C. because D. though
3. A. some B. such C. less D. no
以上几句叙述了John的不幸遭遇：做清洁工，打破玻璃，做售票员，钱又被偷；做邮递员， 又把本该送到收件人家里的信件寄出。根据文章的这一情境，1空应选B，表递进；2空则 说明lost his job的原因，故选C。由接连发生的不幸遭遇，从而得出结论：似乎无合适工 作可干了。故3空选D。
2. 从上下文相关内容考虑。
例1 One day Mrs Nanete O'Neill gave an arithmetic to our class. When the papers were marked she discovered that twelve boys had ma de exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
(A. test B. problem C. paper D. lesson)
该题撇开具体上下文，A、B、C、D四个选项都能成立，而在把握全文整体意思的情况下，很 容易找到下文的重要信息词：the test。故选A。
例2 “In her eyes he couldn't do anything .”(A.wrong B.great C.good D.strange)在他母亲眼中，他不可能做出什么事呢?仅从这一单句考虑，四个备选答案都没错。但根据上文的She loved John very much以及下文提到的：当Jo hn与其他士兵一起接受检阅时，观众嘲笑John与其他士兵步调不一致，而他母亲却大叫：They are all out of step except my John! 到此，我们才能选出A项为正确答案。
例3 ...in fact he had tried a few . First of all he was a windowcleaner...Then he became a bus conductor...(A. ones B. years C. tasks D. jobs)
以上四个选项都可以用a few修饰，但根据下文的 a windowcleaner 和a bus conductor 可知，正确答案为D。
3. 从惯用法和固定搭配的角度考虑。
例1 ...scientists are doing a research her,...(A.for B.by C.to D.on)本题考查固定搭配 do (make) a research on...因此，正确答案为D。
例2 But all of us are called daily to make a great many personal decisions. (A.out B.for C.up D.upon)
该题正确答案为D，考查固定搭配call upon sb. to do sth. (要求某人做某事)。而学生可 能因只记住call upon 为“访问”、“号召”之意而误选。
例3 Here's a fellow who just walks into a bank and helps himself so much money. (A. for B. by C. to D. of)
该题答案为C，固定搭配help oneself to,在文章中为：“未经许可擅自取用”。但学生可 能会由于对这一固定搭配没有全面理解，仅记得help oneself to是“随便吃……”之意， 看到后文的money,而误选for。
4. 从句子结构考虑。
例1 1 of us are asked to make 2 decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called 3 daily to make a great many personal decisions. wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket turned over to the policeman?
1. A. All B. Few C. Some D. None
2. A. quick B. wise C. great D. personal
3. A. out B. for C. up D. upon
4. A. Should B. Must C. Would D. Need
5. A. and B. or C. then D. but
(Key: 1.B 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.B )
在把握全文的情境后，不难分析出以上几句在结构上的相同和表现方式上的相似：第一、二 两句，是以相似的结构进行内容上的对比。第三、四两句，是为了达到强调目的，使用相同句式结构的排比句。
例2 Toddy thought of the 1 with which he managed to get the amount of money he 2 to start his gas station.
1. A. satisfaction B. difficulty C. disappointed D. spirit
2. A. saved B. made C. offered D. needed
从测试的目的看，两个空都要求考生对该句的结构有准确的把握：从with which到句未是一 个定语从句，修饰difficulty，这个定语从句中又包含了一个定语从句he needed和一个不 定式to start his gas station作目的状语。答案分别为B和D。
5. 从词汇的意义及用法考虑。
The news twenty minutes later...(A. continue d B. lasted C. spread D. arrived)(二十分钟同一消息又在继续播放)四个动词都可以与the news 搭配，但含义各不相同，lasted(持续)，spread(扩散)，arrived(到达)，只有A项 continued(继续)能与后面的时间状语twenty minutes later连用。
四、 注意要点
1. 解题能力的增强，不仅靠解题技巧，而主要靠平时注重知识的积累和大量的阅读，尤其 要经常朗读，培养语感，并进行适量的针对性训练。
2. 解题时，要克服不良心理的影响，完形填空的解题过程实际上是语篇内在逻辑关系逐渐 明晰的过程，不可能“一步到位”。因此，要克服急躁心理，应该在整篇把握的情况下，首 先把较为容易的和较有把握的选项选出，在此基础上，文章的内容将更完整的体现，然后对 原来较模糊的选项逐步填入。
3. 分析完形填空题，可以看出，绝大多数题是考查上下文乃至全篇内容的理解能力， 因此，选择答案时，既要仔细考虑句子结构是否完整、正确，又要跳出句子层次，注意句与 句之间、段与段之间、情节与情节之间或更大范围内的连接和照应关系。总之，应尽量争取 对短文有一个“全景式”的总体把握。
总之,在全国英语等级考试逐渐升温的时候,我们写这样一篇文章与大家共同探讨完形填空的解题方法,希望能够对大家有所帮助.也祝愿大家在这个证书盛行的时代能够获得PETS证书,为升学与就业添一把火,进而迎接璀璨人生!
