編者按:從2016年第1期開始,英語科目將注重于題型專項提升,聚焦題型難點和易錯點,幫助考生彌補知識漏洞。
文章的開頭通常會出現一個完整的句子,提示全文,讓考生迅速進入主題,為理解文章奠定基礎。
語篇層次設空的比例有所增加,超過了三分之一,使考生無法憑某個單句的其他部分就能得出答案。文中“掩埋”的線索包括文章的話題、主題、背景、人物、時間、地點、事件等,考生應以這些線索來解題、確定文體,從而把握文章的發展方向,達到順利“完形”的目的。
不少考生看了很多完形填空解題技巧后還是一頭霧水,原因是沒有真正認識到完形填空的考查關鍵。
大家不妨和筆者站在命題者的角度來看看完形填空是怎樣“編”出來的,知道了命題的思路,了解了設題的角度和選詞的方向,難題自然迎刃而解。下面筆者就以一篇完形填空作為案例,總結、分析高考完形填空考查的方向及規律。

(1)從上下文的角度考慮
完形填空必須從上下文的角度考慮,很多問題都要根據上下文來解答。第1題,該題的答案是B,如果只讀短文的第一句和第二句,很難確定答案,因為該題的其他三個選項都可以放進句中,語法正確,句子意義也完整。但根據第三句提示可知,該人闖入的是一家銀行
