【知识点拨】在做完形填空时一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s more等词汇、固定结构的运用。它们连接了上下文，起着承上起下的作用。像but（但是）、however（然而），表示转折，这说明前后的内容相反或相对。把握住这一点，做起题来就会得心应手。

【名师点睛】

上下文对照，捕捉关键词

解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。比如第50小题，C考查动词。A. takes取走； B. picks摘； C. turns转变； D. points指引。正如结果所示，这个女司机在家时期间突发心脏病。故选C。 比如第51小题，B 考查形容词。A.uneasy不舒服的；B. unconscious无意识的；C.unnecessary 没必要的；D. unfortunate不幸的。司机突发心脏病，在座位上失去知觉。故选B。
