点睛：

巧解完形填空题，考生必须进行通篇考虑，掌握大意，综合所学词法、句法和常识进行分析判断。

1. 语境信息解题法：这类题主要是通过短文中上下语境所透露的信息进行解题，首先要正确理解所给信息，在进行合理分析和推断，这种语境信息一定要遵循逻辑概念，符合运动规律，时态的交替，以及特殊场合下的应急合理判断。本文中大量的题目都和语境有关，如1.3.5.11题。

2. 语法结构法： 这类题需要考生有较为扎实的语法基础知识，能够从句式的结构上辨别出须填相关的关联词、连词、副词、形容词或相应的动词，当然还要考虑到主谓一致的关系等语法知识要点。如第6、7、13题。

3. 固定搭配解题法：这类题与语法结构题有点类似，但主要惯用搭配，讲究词与词的搭配，涉及到关联词、动词、副词、形容词、名词和短语等。如第2、4、7、13题。
