‎2019届二轮复习完形填空专题解题6大技法指导 技法1| 利用上下文暗示解题 ‎[解题技法分述]‎ 在多数空白前后的上下文中，会出现或多或少的设空依据，就是所谓的“伏笔”或“暗示”。学生在阅读过程中会根据这些伏笔或暗示，或顺势对下文进行推测，或逆向对上文进行推导，心中往往能预判出答案，并且在阅读过程中对预想答案不断进行修正。‎ ‎[经典案例分析]‎ ‎[例1]　(2017·全国卷Ⅱ)In 1973，I was teaching elementary school.Each day，27 kids 41 “The Thinking Laboratory.” That was the 42 students voted for after deciding that “Room 104”was too 43 ．‎ Freddy was an average 44 ，but not an average person.

One more look and he noticed 45 shooting out from under the 46 vehicle. Larry pulled over, set the brake and 47 the fire extinguisher(灭火器)．Two good bursts from the extinguisher and the fire was put out.‎ ‎41．A. walking B．touring C．traveling D．rushing ‎42．A. passengers B．colleagues C．employers D．customers ‎43．A.

So Alia took matters into her own hands.‎ ‎40．A. then　　B．still　　C．even　　D．rather ‎41．A. permission　　B．confirmation　　C．explanation　　D．information ‎42．A. large　　B．public　　C．distant　　D．safe 解析：40空所在的句子在语义上表示递进，“有新书、古书，甚至还有700年前有关伊拉克历史的书籍”，故40空选C；42空后有but，应是转折关系，根据“但是他们拒绝了”，可知，她请求过政府的允许，故41空选A。‎ ‎[例2]　(2016·全国卷Ⅰ)...They told her to stay 52 until the emergency personnel arrived， 53 she thought the car was going to 54 ．Larry told her that he had already put out the fire and she should not move 55 she injured her neck.‎ ‎52.A.quiet　　　B．still　　　C．away　　　D．calm ‎53．A. for　　B．so 　　C．and　　D．but ‎54．A. explode　　B．slip away 　C．fall apart　　D．crash ‎55．A.as if　　B．unless 　C．in case　　D．after 解析：53题前说他们让那位女士不要动，而53题后说那位女士担心汽车出状况，前后两部分之间是转折关系，应用but，故选D。55题说她不应该动，以免(in case)伤了脖子，为目的关系，故选C。‎ 技法3| 利用词语习惯搭配解题 ‎[解题技法分述]‎ 完形填空经常在文章中考查词语的习惯搭配，主要考查动词与名词、代词之间，动词、名词、形容词与介词之间的搭配。熟悉并掌握固定搭配是解题的重要手段。‎ ‎[经典案例分析]‎ ‎[例1]　(2017·北京高考)There is an emergency shelter in Winnipeg called “Hannah's Place”，something that Hannah is very of. Hannah's Place is divided into several areas，providing shelter for people when it is so cold that 50 outdoors can mean death.

But 41 apply. You must be named Elizabeth Gallagher and have a Canadian 42 ．‎ Jordan Axani，28，said he and his then girlfriend，Elizabeth Gallagher，booked heavily discounted roundtheworld air tickets in May，but their 43 ended and he did not want her ticket to 44 ．The ticket had a strict notransfer(不可转让) 45 ，but since passport information was not required when 46 ，any Canadian Elizabeth Gallagher can 47 it.‎ ‎41.A.benefits　　B．deposits　　C．restrictions　　D．examinations ‎42．A. origin　　B．passport　　C．accent　　D．friend ‎43．A. holiday　　B．marriage　　C．dream　　D．relationship ‎44．A. go to waste　　B．come to mind　　C．go on sale　　D．come into effect ‎45．A. policy　　B．order　　C．payment　　D．schedule ‎46．A. applying　　B．booking　　C．checking　　D．bargaining ‎47．A. use　　B．borrow　　C．choose　　D．buy 解析：根据45空后面的passport information was not required可知，当时不需要提供护照信息，只要有护照就能够申请，故42空选B；根据43空前面的booked heavily discounted roundtheworld air tickets in May可知，在五月订购了一张打折很多的机票，故46空选B。‎ ‎[例2]　(2017·天津高考)...Worried about my health，I tried many different kinds of but nothing worked. I came to believe that I could do nothing about my 18 ．‎ When I was 50，my weight problem began to affect me 19 ．I didn't want to live the rest of my life with this 20 weight any more.‎ ‎...‎ ‎ 27 I began my own personal weight program，I was filled with the fear that I would 28 the same difficulties that beat me before.

I only learned how to 53 the alphabet that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my 54 progress，I was excited. I then made it a point to 55 those meetings and learn all I could.‎ The following term，I 56 an ASL class .The professor was deaf and any talking was 57 ．I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. 58 ，if there had been any talking，it would have 59 us to learn less.
