【解题策略】
根据完形填空“考查语境,突出语篇,注重实词”的命题原则, 其考查的热点主要是动词、名词、形容词和副词等词类,考查的角 度和考查方式通常以语境、搭配、常识、情景及篇章结构等为主。 解答不同类型的题目,可采用不同的解题技巧和解题方法。
技巧 1 语法分析
【典例 1】When I handed him the gift card,saying he could use it for 54 his family might need,he burst into tears.
A.whoever B.whatever C.whichever D.whenever 答案及剖析:
B 考查代词以及对语境的理解。whoever 无论谁;whatever 无论什么;whichever 无论哪一个;whenever 无论什么时候。动词 need 缺少宾语,此处表示“用于买他的家人可能需要的任何东西”,故用 whatever。
【典例 2】As a parent,I 29.hated seeing my daughter playing her best, 30 still defeated.
A.if B.or C.but D.as 答案及剖析:
C 考查语境中连词的辨析。由 playing her best和 still defeated 的语意逻辑,不难看出前后为转折关系。因此 C 项为正确答案。 利用语法知识,确定考查项目 通过分析句子结构来确定考查的语法项目,进而确定答案。
技巧2 背景常识
【典例 1】Imagine the first days in a new time zone.Slow to respond to the 28 ,your body clock is confused.
