完形填空试题是在给出的一篇短文中有目的地拿掉若干个词,留下一些空格,要求考生借助短文保留的部分,从所给的短文整体出发,在正确理解短文意思的基础上,根据句子和句子间的内在联系、词的用法和习惯搭配等,用适当的词或词语填空,使补全后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯、结构完整。这种题型测试的内容从形式上看是单词或短语的填空,但它必须注意到短文中上、下文意思连贯、词语搭配和语法结构正确,所以在空格上所填的词必须符合语义适用和语法正确两条原则,只考虑某一侧面都可能导致错误。一定意义上讲它是根据一篇文章所提供的情景进行的选择填空,也可以说它是在缺少个别单词情况下的阅读理解。
下面小举一例分析一下中考英语的考点,题型和应对办法。

其中有的考题是考词义或词组意义辨析,有的考固定搭配,有的考语法,有的考逻辑。对于考词义和词组意义辨析,要求必须记忆精准,并结合上下问进行取舍。对于固定搭配,要采用以介词分类,带动词组和固定搭配的记忆,而且最好是整理成卡片的形式,每次考试之前都要复习一下,这样多见几次面,才能记得牢,就像人与人一样,一面记不住,三面四面还记不住吗?对于语法,要对整个语法进行一下系统的复习,不要舍不得花时间看语法知识,也不要觉得语法没有任何用处,尽管现在淡化语法的考试,但它的考试已经渗透到完型,阅读,单选和写作里了。系统复习过后发现自己的知识漏洞,要进行试题的强化练习。对于逻辑考查,其实考的就是语感和阅读能力,因此应该靠大声朗读进行语感的训练,当然大声朗读也是有方法的,要学会句群分析。好多学生都是乱读一气,这样的作用是很小的。另外平时见到连接词要有意的进行自我分析,究竟为什么用but,however,since.for等,经常有意的训练,自然会慢慢的提升自己的逻辑分析能力,写作也会因此而受益。
