1、 要做好语法填空题,理解短文是解题的前提,扎实的词汇、句型和语法知识是基础,英语国家背景知识是必要的补充。现以下题为例,谈谈语法填空的解题思路。阅读下面短文,按句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空,并将答案填写在答题卡标号为1-0的相应位置 A proverb says,“Time is money”.But in my opinion,time is even 1 _ precious than money.Why?2 _ when money is spent,we can earn it back.However,when time
2、is 3 _,it will never return.4 _ is known to all that the time we can use is limited.Therefore we should make 5 _ use of our time to study hard so as to serve our country in 6 _ future.But it is a pity that there are a lot of people 7 _ do not realize the value of time.They 8 _ their precious time sm
3、oking,drinking and playing.In a word,we should form the good habit of 9 _(save)time.Do not put off what can be done today 10 _ tomorrow.根据语法知识进行填空第题 由than可知,precious要用比较级,多音节形容词的比较级前加more,故此题答案为more第题 因there are是个句子,do not 应是一个定语从句,从句缺主语,先行词是人,应填入 who.根据逻辑关系进行填空就是根据上下文的逻辑关系来解题第题,因前句用Why提问,应当用because
4、来回答,故此题答案是because.根据语篇标志进行填空语篇是指比单个句子长的语言单位(句群、段落、篇章等)。语篇间往往有标明内在关联的词,我们称这些词为“语篇标志词”。如表示结构层次的有first,second,third,finally等;表示因果关系的有 thus,therefore,so等;表示转折关系或转换话题的有however,but,while等;表示递进关系的有besides,apart from,in addition,whats more,moreover,furthermore等。“语篇标志词”对迅速理清文章的脉络,弄清上下文关系很有帮助。第题,由表示转折however的
5、可知,是指当时间失去的时候,表示“失去”是gone。第题,有表示结果的Therefore可知,应充分利用时间,故用形容词full或good来修饰名词。根据固定词组进行填空熟练掌握教材出现的重点词组,如as a matter of fact,as usual,be proud of,by the way,by chance/accident,be busy with/doing sth,betweenand,come/be from,congratulateon,devoteto,earn ones living/make a living,fromto,in common,keep ones
6、word/promise,look forward to,make up ones mind,pay attention to 等,对解题很有帮助第题 表示“在将来”是固定词组in the future根据句型搭配进行填空 就是根据一些常用的句型搭配,如so/suchthat,it is/was+adj./n+(for sb)to do sth,there is no doubt that,doubt whether/if,Hardly/Scarcelywhen,No sooner than,it is/has been+some time since,be about to do when,
7、等来解题第题 填it,作形式主语,真正的主语是前面的从句根据词汇知识进行填空 指根据某些词语在用法上的特殊搭配来解答如下列各类动词必须牢记:只能接-ing形式作宾语的动词,只能接to do作宾语的动词,接to do作补语的动词,接do作补语的动词,接或作补语的动词,对句式搭配要求较为特别的词语,等等 第题 由time smoking可想到是spend/waste time(in)doing句型,这是由spend/waste的用法所决定的;这里是一般现在时,主语是复数,填spend或waste 第题 因of是介词,介词后的动词通常用-ing形式,故填saving根据生活常识进行填空第题 结合生活常识,不难理解句意为“不要把今天能做的事情推迟到明天做”,答案自然是表示“直到”的until/till.根据文化背景进行填空如 After the flood Mr.Deng was as poor as a church _.这句话的意思是“水灾后邓先生一贫如洗了”as poor as a church mouse(一贫如洗),所以此处填mouse.
