完形填空 （二） 

秘诀
1．浏览全文，预测主题
大约花20－30妙时间浏览全文，以便把握文章主旨，这样就可以利用对该主旨的背景知识帮助理解全文。
为此，可利用词汇的复现率来预测主旨，如该文复现率较高的词汇是sleep和wake，所以可大致猜测该文讲的是睡眠的问题。
 
2．择优排除，交替使用
遇到空缺较多的句子，优先考虑较为简单、能够直接选择正确答案的空缺，此为“择优法”。在碰到无从选择时，分析四个选项的特点，若其中有两个或两个以上的选项是相似或相反时，其中一个往往是正确选项，此为排除法；若原文空缺处需要已及物动词，而选项中有非及物动词，则可先排除，此亦为排除法；等等。
如第4段最后一句有三空，可能第一空对有的考生来说不能马上选择，那么可优先解决第二空，因为该空前面表时间点的the latest time，那么at后面这空必然用来表示该时间，所以应该选择能够既能表该时间又能连接后面的句子的成分，答案就在which和that里选，然后由介词at又可排除that。
 
3． 若有时间，复核选项
做完后，先不要着急复核选项，等剩余题目都已完成，再回到该题检查。注意选项中的近形、近义或反义词以及固定搭配。
