高考英语单项填空的十大技巧
高考英语单项填空的十大技巧
1.正面抉择：适应于答案比较明朗题；
2.反面排除：适应于正确答案不明朗,先逐一排除干扰项最后确定答案题；
3.正反并举：适应于多数题；
4.消元简化：适应于题干较长,附加成分较多,题干主线不明朗；
例如:There is a new problem involved in the popularity of private cars ________ road conditions need ________ (2003上海)
A.that;to be improved
B.which;to be improved
C.where;improving
D.when;improving
消去修饰problems的private cars,题干主线就很清楚,显然第一空应填that引导的同位语从句,从而可定答案为A.
5.还原再现：适应于题干或选项中有省略成分题.
例如Generally speaking ______ according to the directions,the drug has no side effect.(2003上海)
A.when taking
B.when taken
C.when to take
D.when to be taken
题干主语是drug,故应选含被动义选项;四个选项的when后都省略了it is,将其还原于选项之后,只有B项的when it is taken 合题所用,故正确答案为B.
6.语境定义：适应于情景题和交际题.
例如:----Sorry,Joe,I didn't mean to ……-----Don't call me "Joe',I'M Mr Parker to you,and ______ you forget!(2003全国)
A.do
B.didn't
C.did
D.don't
乙方的话末尾是感叹号,而不是问号,因而是表达一种情感,而不是提出一个问题,故A,B,C都不可选. "Don't you do……!"是一种出现主语的强示否定祈使句.因此正确答案为D.
7.分步到位：适应于题干比较复杂或语序比较散乱的单项填空题；
例如:The home improvement have taken what little there is ______ my spare time.(2001全国)
A.from
B.in
C.of
D.at
第一步明确what little = that little(那点儿);第二步there is= I have;第三步what little there is _____ my spare time = that little ______ my spare time (that) I have.经过以上三步思考之后,不难看出该题应选C.
8.选点突破：适应于有两空的单项填空题；
9.克服思维定势：适应于设题反常规题；
10.依据习惯用法：适应于涉及习语,口语,俚语等惯用法题；
例如―――Susan go and join your sister cleaning the yard----why______ John is sitting there doing nothing.
A.him
B.he
C.I
D.me (2003全国)
在对话中,答语省去谓语时,或跟动词原形连用时,常用宾格代词代替主格代词.例如:----Who's driving 谁开车 ----Me.我来开. ----Me fly I want him to do it.要我飞我让他先飞给我看.故此题应选D.。
