八年级英语完形填空解题技巧

英语完形填空解题技巧

一、完形填空的设计特点

完形填空一般有如下几个特点：（1）完形填空所选的文章比较多的是情节明了、层次分明、内容易懂的故事性或记叙性的文体，文中较少出现生词，这样有助于考生整体理解和思路畅通。完形填空所选文章一般较之同一份试卷中的阅读理解题所选的文章，其难度要略低一些。（2）完形填空的选文篇幅一般在170—220单词之间；空缺处的密度一般是每5—15单词一空。（3）以意义填空为主，要求填入的词主要有：①语法结构所要求的功能词，如连接词、连接代词、连接副词、关系代词、关系副词等。②具有语法变化的普通词，如动词的时态、语态、语气，名词的数，代词的格，形容词和副词的级等。③固定搭配短语或词组中的特定词。④同义词、近义词等易混淆词。⑤根据上、下文意思及结构必须填入的确定词。可见，完形填空是一种综合性较强的题型。它的突出特点是起点高、容量大。同学们只有具备了扎实的语言基本功、较好的阅读能力及归纳判断能力，才能适应这一题型。

（4）完形填空题的考查目的：①考查同学们阅读理解能力。②考查同学们语法知识。③考查同学们综合运用英语知识的水平和实践能力。

二、完形填空的考查点

“完形填空”题是一种旨在考查学生语法和词汇知识综合运用能力的典型题型。重点考查词语搭配、词语辨析、逻辑推断、前后呼应等，有时兼顾一些讲英语国家的语言及生活习惯等。词语搭配包括习惯用语、动词、形容词、副词、介词、名词等的相互搭配；词语辨析包括近义词的辨析和易混词的辨析；逻辑推断包括根据上下文的信息判断和逻辑关系，如转折、递进、因果、条件、让步等关系，也包括根据上下文内容，选出一个意思与内容相符合的词或词语；前后呼应是指有些句子如果孤立地理解，可能有多个选择，并且意思都能成立，但把前后文结合或联系起来理解，就只能有一个选择。

三、完形填空题的解题步骤及技巧

由于完形填空题的解题难度一般比单项填空和阅读理解要大，一般说来，做完形填空题时可按下列步骤：

1、浏览全文，理解大意。在着手答题之前从头到尾把文章浏览一遍，以便能了解文章的大概意思，使接下来的答题过程具有一定的针对性。

2、照顾上下文，作出正确的逻辑及词意的判断。在答题过程中，不要一遇到空白处就停下来做题，有些空白处是需要通读全句甚至全文后才能作出正确的选择的，因此，在答题过程中，要经常考虑上下文，并进行逻辑推断。

3、先易后难，利用已选出的正确答案来推断未知的答案。一些题目一下子不能马上找到答案，不妨先搁置一边，做上标记，待做完其他相对容易发现的答案的题目后再处理，因为这时，文章所提供的信息量比以前多了，也许这时找到答案的难度会小一些。

4、重新阅读全文，全面复查。将选好的答案一一对号入座，再把整篇文章通读一遍，看看在表达整个语篇的意思上有无唐突之处，内容是否连贯通顺，语法上有无不妥等等。

四、提高完形填空题解题能力的训练要点

要想在完形填空上取得高分，平时要做以下方面的训练：

1、进行一定量的阅读训练以提高自己的英语语感和对文章的理解能力。由于完形填空重点考查的是一个考生的阅读能力，因此，提高自己的阅读能力是提高在完形填空中的得分的关键。阅读能力的提高是和你阅读的量成正比的。阅读的量越大，你的阅读能力就越强。因此，有计划、有步骤地进行一定量的阅读训练是相当重要的。在进行阅读训练时，除了检测自己在阅读中的理解情况之外，还要对阅读文章中所出现的重点词和词组进行认真的学习和研究。对于重要的句式句型等也要进行认真的研究、总结并作整理和记忆。同类句型在今

后的做题中肯定会多次出现，如不作整理和记忆则无法产生较好的语感，对于英语句子所表达的意思的理解只能一直停留在模糊阶段，更谈不上阅读能力的快速提高，而阅读能力得不到提高就直接影响到完形填空的正确率。

2、加强词汇知识方面的训练，努力提高词汇的识记和理解能力。

有学生以为，提高自己的词汇知识无非就是要死记硬背词汇表，把每一个单词都熟记在心。其实，背诵词汇表只是词汇知识掌握的第一步，虽然这一步非常重要也是必不可少的。我们知道，一个单词或词组在具体的上下文中会有不同的意思，而许多这样的意思也许在你的词汇表上并没有标出。一个词甚至是一个非常普通的词，在一定的语言环境下说话者可能会赋予它特定的意思，从而达到某种语义效果。如果你缺乏一定的语汇训练，在一个不同的语言环境中，你硬是用你从词汇表上所背到的词义去理解，也许会永远不理解句子所要表达的真正含义。要提高自己在词汇知识方面的能力，首先，在熟记每一单词的基本词义的同时，多记一些该单词的各种常见词义下的重要例句；其次，平时应多作一些记录和积累工作，把自己从阅读中所见到的一些所学单词的有用的表达法记录下来，并经常诵读；另外，不妨多学一些构词知识，如英语单词中的词性转换、前后缀、合成词等，这些知识也可以在一定程度上提高你的词汇知识。

3、多进行完形填空的训练。

平时多做完形填空的训练可以有效地提高实战能力，以充分适应这种题型。每做完一篇完形填空，就需要认真核对答案，找出在做题中出错的原因，以便采取相应的措施，在今后做题时避免出现同样的错。如你发现在做题时经常犯词汇理解方面的错误，则你就应该认真记忆单词、词组；如你犯的是语篇理解方面的错误，则应当有意识地增加你的阅读量，以提高阅读理解的能力。上述工作做完后，你最好不要就把这篇做好的完形填空随手扔了，不妨把整篇文章再默记一遍，并在文章中的空缺处填上核对后的正确的词（应该把这些词默写出来，而不是对着答案照抄），再把文章反复读几遍。这样做，对你做完形填空时产生一种良好的语感是很有好处的。
