格式塔心理学:
当看见不完整的事物时，人们根据脑子里对事物的完整概念，会在思想上把它补全。

即：补全心理
一.《高中英语课程标准和考试说明》对高考完形填空的规定：
完形填空是高考试题中的一个重要部分。

完形填空共20题，考试时间为20分钟左右，分值为30分，占总分的20％。

在两篇题材熟悉、难度适中的短文(约350词)内留有20个空格，每个空格为一题，每题有四个选择项，要求考生在全面理解内容的基础上选择一个最佳答案，使短文的意思和结构恢复完整。

完形填空部分的目的是测试学生综合运用语言的能力（测试能力要求大体接近大学非英语专业二年级水平。

）
完型填空考查综合运用语言的能力：
1）词语辨析能力
2）语法结构分析能力
3）语篇理解能力
4）逻辑推理能力
5）文化背景透析能力
6）生活常识综合运用能力…
二：完型填空试题主要特点：
1. 通常从一篇300-350词左右，文章中设空20个，首句不挖空；
2. 内容完整, 逻辑性强, 语言结构严谨。

生词少, 难度适中。

3. 干扰项设计严密.一般情况下，四个选项的词性相同或属于同等或对等范畴，
干扰项填入后在语法上一般不存在错误，对考生有很大的迷惑作用；
4.突出语篇(语境)，强调应用，注重交际；
5. 考察重点多为实词: 名词/ 代词/动词/ 形容词/ 副词等；单词为主、短语为辅。

6. 关注语境背景知识, 侧重上下关联, 暗示判断能力。

7.大多富有积极的教育意义，给人以人生的启迪或是充满了生活情趣；
记叙文
对于叙事，描述类文章。

短文的首句，往往点明故事发生的人物(who),时间（when），地点(where)，和事件(what)等背景情况。

例：
It was a busy morning，about 8:30,when an elderly gentleman in his 80s came to the hospital .
议论文
1、议论文的设题往往多以上下文为基础，利用承前信息或滞后信息，使读者有所依托。

2、议论文中表达作者态度或看法的词较多，所以，试题中对形容词和副词的考查往往也较多。

问题跳跃性较大。

我们做题时，既要看事实，又要感悟作者的态度与情感。

对于论述文，首句表明了论述的主题。

起到揭示主题的作用。

例如：
A man who knows how to write a personal letter has a very powerful tool. A letter can be enjoyed, read and 21 .
说明文
说明文直白性较强，脉络清晰。

2、说明文的层次清晰，整体性强，所以，递进性词汇和名词的设题往往出现得
较多。

只要把握这些关键，做完形填空便会得心应手，游刃有余。

完形填空总体要求
完形填空全面考查学生的语言知识、阅读理解能力和总体语言水平。

解题过程是对语篇中的缺失信息进行猜测、推断、验证的过程，需要我们立足语篇环境，树立全局观念，瞻前顾后，连贯思维，从语境角度来选择答案。

高考完形填空考什么？
1.词汇题
2. 语法结构
3. 篇章结构(语境)
为什么我们在这一题型上总是失分较多?
1.没有严格遵循答题步骤:很多考生一拿到完形填空题就急于选择答案，不
认真分析通篇文章，单纯求快，忽略语篇理解，只看局部的词义辨析、搭配和语法结构。

表面上解题速度挺快，但是这种见树不见林的做法只会影响解题的质量和效率。

切记:一定要用2-3分钟时间先进行缺词阅读,弄清文章大意和基本脉络后再着手逐个填空.
2.不注意积累答题技巧:
a.忽略文章首句的提示作用；
b.忽略文章中上下文之间的照应关系;
c.遇到长句不注意分析句子结构,在语义模糊时抱碰运气的心理随意作出选择.
3.时间安排不当:在几个选项上过分纠缠，追求完美，导致许多本可以做出的题来不及做。

切记:正确的做法是由易到难，先做会做的，再考虑较难的。

强烈推荐：如尚有几题题目不确定可将某题的可能的两项填入空格, 然后快速地整句整段地默读, 选择某一项习惯或短语或动宾搭配读起来较流畅的.
四. 解题方法：
总的原则: 先完意，后完形。

十六字方针：上下通气，瞻前顾后，左顾右盼，前后照应。

三步曲：读——填——读
五. 完形填空具体解题步骤
通览------选填-----复核
1 通览----速读全文，把握大意
跳格快速阅读一下全文，通过通览全文、领会大意，概略地了解文章的体裁、背景、内容等等。

2 选填----紧扣文意，瞻前顾后
先易后难，逐层深入。

紧扣全文内容，联系上下文和语境，展开逻辑推理，注意从上下文中寻找线索，注意词汇的意义、搭配，惯用法，语法，常识等多个角度进行综合考，选项入格。

3 复核----全面检查，确保语意连贯，用词准确
复读全文验证答案。

带着答案把全文再通读一遍，注意看所选答案填入空白处后能否做到文章意思通顺、前后连贯、逻辑严谨、结构完整、首尾呼应。

完形填空之解题技巧-----Basic skills of cloze
细读文章的第一句话
高考完形填空选文的第一句话通常是完整的。

该句往往就是主题句（Topic Sentence），这就为我们理解文章的内在联系提供了一个“窗口”，它的句意往往为全文提供中心信息，能直接概括全文大意、揭示主题。

充分重视首句的标示作用，利用它为解题找到一个突破口，据此展开思维，争取开局胜利。

小结：完型填空考查内容

逻辑手段：顺序关系，并列关系，因果关系，让步关系，转折关系，解释关系作者观点、态度
解题过程中应做到
注意上下文语境
了解常识背景
掌握习惯搭配
运用词义辨析
运用语法分析
运用逻辑分析
运用排除法
英语完形填空解题步骤
1.通读全文，统揽全局。

首句主题
2.逐句分析，确定选项。

比较选项
3.通盘理解，上下一致。

作者思想
4.复读全文，核对答案。

第一感觉
做题三忌：
急于求成，未通读全文便忙于答题，不了解文意。

只抠字眼，语法，不顾文意，抓不住关键。

断章取义，不管前后照应，前后矛盾。

不善于逻辑推理，容易受思维定势的干扰,忽视特定语境中知识的应用。

如何提高能力技巧
一、提高阅读能力（速度、理解）
二、打好语法基础
三、扩充词汇量（词汇是完型之根，动
词、名词为主）
四、增长生活常识，培养广泛的兴趣爱好
五、坚持每天做两篇，以提高实战能力
总结--解题方法：
总的原则：“先完意，后完形”。

八字方针：上下求索，瞻前顾后。

三步曲：读——填——读
这种逻辑语气主要包含并列、递进、因果、转折和委婉语气等等。

这类题的选项多为连词、副词或具有连词意义的各类短语。

【例题】He had spent those years well, graduating from college, completing two internships(实习) in Washington, D.C, and ______, becoming a technical assistant in Sacramento.
A. hopefully
B. finally
C. particularly
D. certainly
【解析】
有上文及全句的意思可知，在这儿是作者六年求学和工作的最后一个环节，表示毕业之后找到了一份工作，从预期上讲，应该是结论性的，所以，惟有finally 符合题意，选B。

应试技巧二：固定搭配解题法
这类题与语法结构题有点类似，但主要惯用搭配，讲究词与词的搭配，涉及到关联词、动词、副词、形容词、名词和短语等。

Telling him that he no longer needed to enjoy them but I still needed to write them, I ______ until the day he graduated.
A. held up
B. gave up
C. followed
D. continued
由句意可知，“尽管儿子不愿意再收到我的字条，但是我依然坚持写到他毕业为止。

”这道题实际上是一道固定搭配题，其结构为not…until，但句中没有否定副词not，再则，若A、B两项短语用于这一结构中须与not连用，故不合题意;C 项的followed应为及物动词，后面需加宾语方可，再则followed在此有歧义，也不合题意，由于continue是延续性动词，所以，无需否定副词，在这一固定搭配中只有瞬间动词才与not连用，所以选D。

这类题需要考生有较为扎实的语法基础知识，能够从句式的结构上辨别出须填相关的关联词、连词、副词、形容词或相应的动词，当然还要考虑到主谓一致的关系等语法知识要点。

When it was 5:00pm, I was ready to go home. I was about to turn off my computer ______ I received an email from Garth, my Director.
A. while
B. when
C. where
D. after
这里when的意思是just at the moment，与前面的when意思不一样，A项的while无此意，D项的after不符合行为交互逻辑，C项完全是错误。

所以选B。

应试技巧四：语境信息解题法
选项重在语意干扰，考生应具有通过上下文提示、暗示或铺垫，对篇章进行整体上的把握的能力。

所以，快速浏览全文，迅速领悟篇章主旨，通过上下文语境选择答案选项乃解决完形填空的关键。

Our __1__ challenge was to keep the rock mixture __2__ enough.
1. A. next B. first C. past D. previous
2. A. cold B. wet C. loose D. clean
短文前面提到第一个挑战是发电的问题，那么接下来的挑战就是如何保持温度的问题。

所以1题答案为A。

从下文提到的洒水车等事情，我们可以判断出2这儿应该是“保持湿度”的语意，所以答案为B项。

应试技巧五：利用常识解题法
这类题主要是考查考生应该把握的英美国家的文化背景知识和生活常识，但唯有在无法准确把握语言知识时，可充分利用所学的社会知识和科普知识进行语境判断。

Yesterday the sales office rang us to say the car was ______.
A. right
B. ready
C. fixed
D. sold
依据生活常识，买车前一般要提前预订，因此这里的意思是销售部打来电话通知作者，他们的车已经到了，让他们前去提车。

答案为B项。

各种完形填空是不是让你很头痛很苦恼？那你不妨试一试能动英语的“句式魔方”课程。

“句式魔方”帮助孩子突破英语学习中的第二难关——单词词义、短语积累与生成、句子生成转换能力。

通过学习“句式魔方”，孩子最终能形成语感，内化成语言本能，熟练生成各种句子。

没有学习“句式魔方”的孩子，要么只能机械的用各种单词按照汉语习惯，生成各种中式英语句子，要么就是不得不花费大量的精力背诵各种语法规则，亦步亦趋的按照这些规则生成句子，很可能被各种语法细碎知识点搞得头昏脑涨而丧失学习兴趣。

而学习了“句式魔方”的孩子，通过“句式魔方”的短语矩阵训练，不但能熟练的生成各种短语，并在训练的过程中，增加了语感，还能再具体的语境中自然习得单词含义，同时“句式魔方”通过其核心句的生成以及其它五种基本句式推导转换的练习，让孩子熟练掌握各种句式和常用时态的变化，最终获得句子生成能力。

回想每个人从小学习中文的时候，我们从未刻意背诵过语法规则甚至大部头的语法书，也能准确顺畅的交流，这是因为我们是通过长期不断地接受与模仿家人、朋友、大众传媒等持续传递给我们的信息中来习得语感，是一种“自下而上”（Bottom-up）的自然习得法，“下”指具体的实例、“上”指抽象的规则。

与之相反的是学校的英语教育采用“自上而下”（Top-down）的方法，讲授给学
生们抽象的语法知识，然后让大家通过朗读、背诵、做题来强化，但是虽然提高了语法的灌输效率，但是因为缺乏对语言的应用，中小学生们尚不具备成人的归纳总结能力，所以孩子们内化吸收的效果大打折扣，总体上并没有提高英语语法习得的效率。

所以解决的关键在于化抽象为具体，让孩子们通过大量输出练习来形成语感，实现脱口而出，而不是背规则与做题。

能动英语的句式魔方课程分LEVEL 1与LEVEL 2两大阶段内容，其中LEVEL 1是在一般现在时的时态背景下，让孩子通过大量练习掌握三大能力——短语生成能力、核心句生成能力、从核心句衍生其它基本句式的能力，让孩子打通基本句式的这条纵线，然后在LEVEL 2阶段学习，让孩子有关句式的三大能力横向复制到更丰富的时态中，如一般过去时、一般将来时、现在进行时、过去进行时、现在完成时等，这样横纵打通来习得语法。

能动英语特别为孩子们设计了短语矩阵（phrase matrix）这一学习模块，它把句子中看似杂乱无章的单词，一下子变成了“有家可归的孩子”，有助于孩子们逐渐形成看清楚句子中单词与单词之间相互对应关系的能力；并教给孩子把单词生成短语的机制，结合课堂实操与课后在手机APP端练习，让孩子可以轻松组出几乎“无限多”的短语，快速形成短语生成能力。

可以说句式魔方不刻意的讲解语法，但语法知识却贯穿在整个的课程体系中，既符合少儿语言接受习惯也遵循着语言学原理。

学完“句式魔方”，一方面有了具体语境后，孩子就知道了单词意义，再结合已习得的“表音密码”基础，孩子就可将单词的“音”、“形”、“意”对应起来，彻底解决单词问题；另一方面，孩子可掌握短语与句子的生成机制，以及应对各种时态与句式的转换问题，来轻松自主的生成各种句子！。
