一．重语境

完形填空着眼于整体理解，必须在对短文大意进行了解的基础上才能准确的推知答案。因此，需要注意上下句的逻辑关系以及整片文章的情节如（17）小题，根据“Today Lee is 32, has won a number of ___16___, and is a widely traveled concert pianist with more than 200___17___.”句意：Lee已经32岁了，赢得了很多的奖励，是一位广受旅行的钢琴家，超过了200次表演。你要通过前后文才能得知答案。

二．重实词

完形填空的命题是在一句话中的关键词语上做文章。考查的词语大多是名词，动词，形容词，副词等实词，当然也不排除能左右文章内容的一些虚词，如介词，连词等。A. accidentally偶然地；B. bravely 勇敢地；C. angrily 生气地； D. carelessly粗心地。A. short短的；B. inflexible 灵活的； C. weak软弱的；D. fat胖的。
