初中完形填空解题技巧
1. 通读全文,把握文章的基本脉络
做完形填空题应着眼于语篇理解,因为完形填空题中干扰项的设置极具迷惑性,如果操之过急,见空就填,可能会“只见树木,不见森林”。因为这时我们对文章信息尚未有一个完整的了解,有的选项选用后在本句中可能讲得通,但在语义上可能跟上下文相抵触。因此,正确的做法是先快速浏览全文,理清文章脉络,掌握文章大意,了解作者意图,为下一步逐个解题寻找判断的依据。同时,通读全文也解决了那些需要通过上下文或联系语篇语境的题目。为了快速浏览全文,掌握大意,在阅读过程中要特别注意文章和段落的首尾句,因为这些句子往往就是整个篇章或段落的主题思想。它还能让你很快了解文章的体裁、形式、涉及的内容及作者的意图。获得这些重要信息,对下面的做题至关重要。例如:NMET2003完形填空题的文章的开头是: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. 文章的结尾是:In a way, I think we both won: I the game, but cousin Ed my respect .读到这两句便可知道,本文是讲述作者和表兄进行壁球比赛的故事:他们俩人打球前、中、后的实战情况和心理状态,以及作者最后对其表兄看法的改变。
2. 研读全文,初步确定答案
掌握了文章的大意后,就为进一步做题奠定了基础。这时应细读全文,按照文章内容的前后顺序并结合备选答案,边读,边分析,边推断正确选项。同时,对试题的测试部分(即文中空格)要进行认真分析。一般的设空词有语用固定型和语境逻辑型两大类。语用固定型题目一般是较为常见的语法结构、词汇及习语等,这部分试题可先行解决。如果有难题,也不要
“不解此题誓不休”,这样会浪费时间。在先行解决一部分试题后,部分语句已经通畅,也就有了更为完整的信息,这有助于进一步了解语篇及作者意图。再经过对已知信息的分析、推理,语境逻辑型试题也会迎刃而解。
当然,在做题过程中也会有一部分题目的四个选项填到空格中时,每一个单独的语句都是符合语法规则的,这时考生就应该利用已知信息,挖掘深层含义,联系上下文,根据文章的主旨和语境要求,把握词义的细微差别,排除干扰项。例如:(NMET2003)……When Ed first phoned and suggested we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an_____ victory.
A. unforgettable B. unexpected C. easy D. early
本题要求考生根据特定语境选择恰当的形容词。所给的四个选项都可以用作定语,但从下文所说的“Ed ' s been the least physically fit member in the family”一句,以及前面“I laughed quietly”一句可知,作者认为自己取胜是轻而易举的事,只有C 项easy符合题意。
3. 复读全文,全面验证答案
填完空白后,重读全文,这也是解题过程中至关重要的一环。此时考生对文章已经有了一个相对完整的了解,对文章的理解也就更进了一步,也就摸清了文章的内在发展的逻辑关系。而如果在此时再读一遍文章,就有可能会发现一些其他原来没有注意到的问题,也就能够根据对语篇的理解及内在的联系,反复推敲,比较异同,从而选择一个更符合文章意义的答案。
