完型填空解题技巧
解题思路一:依据首句线索,紧扣主题选择。 首句通常是文章的主题句,通常不设空,便于考生对短文主题、内容或背景有个大概了解。它的目的是向考生提供时间、地点、人物、事件、论点等有用的信息。把握了主题句, 对于理解全文和解题很有帮助。

解题思路二:顺应文意, 定位选词。 做题时, 要充分利用上下文, 到有提示作用的词。这些词可以是同义词、近义词或反义词, 也可以是并列连词或转折连词等等。

64. A. amuse            B. inform                C. remind            D. embarrass
解题思路六: 利用原词复现或同现, 选择最佳选项。 
1. 在完形填空中, 某一词语通常重复出现, 使得语篇中的句子相互衔接和连贯, 从而构成一个完整的意义整体。
First of all he was a window-cleaner and in his first week he managed to ______ six windows.
A. rub       B. drop      C. break      D. clean 
2. 同现指意义上相互联系的单词同时出现在同一语篇中。一个语篇,一个话题,要求有与之相连的词汇。
1)名词同现:与一个话题或一个名词出现在同一个语境的另一个名词。如: 
school---primary school—middle school—college—university students—pupils—graduates—postgraduates 
2)动词同现:与一个话题或一个名词出现在同一个语境的另一个动词。如:
  school—teach—learn—attend—found—drop out—graduate—be dismissed 
3) 形容词同现; 就某一语境而言所能出现的形容词也是有规律的。如: 在学校这个语境中:
(key)school—(optional)course—(compulsory)course 
4)结构同现: 结构同现批搭配之类的句型和成对出现的短语。如:
some…,others; on one hand…,on the other hand; former…,latter; so…that; not only…but also; hardly/scarcely…when…; no sooner…than…; be about to do /be doing /had done /be on the point of doing/be to do/be ready to do/be on the way … when…; 
I put my head in, expecting the worst. But to my surprise, the room wasn’t empty at all. It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the wall. And then on the well-made bed sat Amy, my new ______, dressed neatly. 
A. roommate   B. classmate   C. neighbor   D. companion 
The   60  Knows
…….Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction.
60. A. Nose         B. Eye            C. Heart            D. Hand
解题思路七:仔细分析长难句。出句子主干,主从句,定语状语等。
In today’s American society, high school dropout has day by day grown into a big problem threatening social and economic stability, as many cases of family ___51___ or even tragedies, caused by youth dropout are grabbing headlines in media.
51.A. objections    B. conflicts    C. establishments    D. happiness
答案: B。 长难句分析, 第一层是as 引导的原因状语从句,主句是school dropout has grown into a big problem. 后面紧跟 动名词做定语。 As 从句中 caused 过去分词作后置定语。在进行句子分析时,一定注意把定语等出来。
In many countries, the language of education is not the same as the language of the home for 53 the majority of children . Furthermore, in many countries, young language learners comprise the most rapidly growing segment of the elementary (primary) school population. 54 While  in some schools there is no extra support to help young language learners acquire the language of instruction, in most countries where there are large numbers of young learners, there is a ___55___ awareness of their special needs.
55. A. reducing      B. watching      C. growing          D. slipping
解析: 55题根据前文可以推断出选C. growing 表示提高的意识。可以对这个长句子进行长难句分析:首先是while 引导的让步状语从句。 在while 从句中运用了help sb do sth 的结构。 在主句中,where 引导的定语从句,先行词是countries.
解题思路八:仔细推敲, 注重逻辑。
做完完形填空题后,要根据所选答案迅速地把文章完整地读一遍, 看语法、惯用法对不对;看是否符合上下文的逻辑; 看是否符合故事情节的发展,以便更正可能的错误选择。一个完整的语篇应该是符合逻辑的,文章逻辑关系的取得主要靠过渡词的使用。作者利用转承语保证文章的逻辑,学生在做完形填空时应通过自己对上下文的理解,到适当的逻辑关系,然后选择正确的过渡词。学生必掌握常见的过渡词:
1. 递进 
in addition, furthermore, again, also, besides, moreover, what’s more, what’s worse, to make matters worse, to make things worse , worse still 
2.比较 
in the same way, as with, similarly, equally, in comparison, just as

  例题及练习
Everyone in business has been told that success is all about attracting and retaining (留住) customers. It sounds simple and achievable. But,   50  , words of wisdom are soon forgotten. Once companies have attracted customers they often   51  the second half of the story. In the excitement of beating off the competition, negotiating prices, securing orders, and delivering the product, managers tend to become carried away. They forget what they regard as the boring side of business—  52  that the customer remains a customer.
  53  to concentrate on retaining as well as attracting customers costs business huge amounts of money annually. It has been estimated that the average company loses between 10 and 30 per cent of its customers every years. In constantly changing   54  , this is not surprising. What is surprising is the fact that few companies have any idea how many customers they have lost.
Only now are organizations beginning to wake up to those lost opportunities and calculate the   55  implications. Cutting down the number of customers a company loses can make a big   56  in its performance. Research in the US found that a five per cent decrease in the number of defecting (流失的) customers led to   57  increases of between 25 and 85 per cent.
In the US, Domino’s Pizza estimates that a regular customer is worth more than $5,000 over ten years. A customer who receives a poor quality product or service on their first visit and   58  never returns, is losing the company thousands of dollars in 59  profits (more if you consider how many people they are likely to tell about their bad experience).
The logic behind cultivating customer   60  is impossible to deny. “In practice most companies’ marketing effort is focused on getting customers, with little attention paid to   61  them”, says Adrian Payne of Cornfield University’ School of Management. “Research suggests that there is a close relationship between retaining customers and making profits.   62  customers tend to buy more, are predictable and usually cost less to service than new customers. Furthermore, they tend to be less price   63  , and may provide free word-of-mouth advertising. Retaining customers also makes it   64  for competitors to enter a market or increase their share of a market.
50.A. in particular          B. in reality            C. at least                  D. first of all
51.A. emphasize            B. doubt              C. overlook              D. believe

Education plays an extremely important role in our life and deeply impacts the society. However, how does society influence education?
Before understanding the influence of society on education, we must _51__ society. Society is an extended social group having a distinctive cultural and economic organization. It is characterized by patterns of relationship between individuals. It is a group of individuals who __52_ a common system of customs,values and laws. From the definition of society,it is clear that we human beings are its building __53_. As we interact with people, try to understand their thinking styles and __54_ patterns,we soon realize that there is so much to learn from them. Society is the greatest __55_ of education. Don’t you think so?
We cannot __56 the impact of society on the educational system alone. We need to understand the role of society in the __57_ development of an individual. Even before we become a part of the education system,we start learning from our surroundings. And during the process of formal education, we __58_ take ‘non-formal ’ education from society. Yes,our interactions with our fellow-beings,our observations about their social behavior and our understanding of social norms __59_ us to face life. True, educational __60_, like schools,colleges, and universities play a very important role in our education. But, we cannot ignore the fact that we learn some of the important lessons of life from society. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the __61_ process of learning begins at a point,which marks the end of institutional education. Learning, as an individual,from your interaction with society,is a vital part of education.
Society plays an important role in education and influences it, both positively and negatively. Social inequalities and unhealthy educational practices are some of the __62_ influences of society on our lives. Customs and traditions __63 certain sections of society from exercising their fundamental rights and block the well-being of society,shatter the basic ideas of education and social awareness. Some social groups deny women ‘s right to education, while others force children to work,depriving(剥夺) them from a healthy environment,conducive to their growth and development. Education is one of the basic human rights. If social norms deprive certain strata(阶层)of society from progressing in life and come in the way of social welfare, it __64_ the purpose of education.
Society is an entity that cannot be separated from us. It is we who __65_ the society. It is entirely in our hands whether to add value to our education or devalue it.

Like many students, Ryan believes that the time and money spent on his education will pay off: he will eventually be able to get a good job and do well in the field he has chosen.

Another problem that graduates entering the workforce encounter is that they are ___57___ to think analytically. In school, many students including those in college, spend a lot of time memorizing facts and repeating what they “learned” on tests. But in the workplace employees “are often expected to think critically and make ___58___ about their work, not just follow a supervisor’s instructions.” Less time needs to be spent in school on testing, says one recent report, and more on helping students to analyze and interpret information, solve problems, and communicate their ideas effectively—skills that will prepare them to succeed in today’s workplace.
Finally, many recent graduates say that one of the biggest difficulties they face is adapting to ___59___ on the job. In the workplace, employees must regularly ___60___ with others and are often dependent on their co-workers for their success. In other words, if an employee has to work with others to complete a given project, that employee’s ___61___ not only depends on his hard work and expertise, but also on how well his colleagues perform. Knowing how to participate effectively in teamwork—and deal with problems when they arise—is extremely important, and yet, it is also something many students don’t get quite ___62___ to in a school setting.
How can we better prepare young adults for the workplace? Recent graduates, looking back on their educational experience, have some ___63___. Many think that all students should be required to do an internship (实习) while they are in school. Volunteering part time at a company, hospital, or government organization, for example, can help one gain experience and learn skills needed to succeed in the real world. ___64___ this kind of practical work experience with classroom instruction, say the graduates, will help prepare students for the ___65___ of the workplace and make the transition from school to career world less stressful.
