考點(diǎn)：選詞填空
點(diǎn)評(píng)：選詞填空一直是英語(yǔ)考試中的難點(diǎn)，得分率比較低。解答此類題型的方法一般就是根據(jù)文章前后句子之間意思推斷出詞義，結(jié)合所給單詞判斷出所缺單詞，然后根據(jù)該單詞在句子中的句子成分，所起作用，進(jìn)行適當(dāng)詞形變化。注意在敘事性短文中，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多為一般過去時(shí)態(tài)及現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)，說(shuō)明性短文中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)。在解題方法上，此類題型也適用于排除法。即先完成較為簡(jiǎn)單的選項(xiàng)，將一時(shí)沒有把握的選項(xiàng)留待最后再來(lái)完成。
