在完形填空题中，理解主旨大意十分重要，正确把握主旨大意有助于考生对文章细节的正确理解，特别是长难句的分析和突破可以帮助考生提高解题的正确率。完形填空题的第一句往往不设空，这句话一般是文章的主题句，考生在解题时一定不要忽略首句的内容。
【典例】As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine(常规) basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this __41__ at work in people of all 42(ages)．
41．A. principle B. Habit C. way D. power
【分析】A根据首句信息可知，这里是指”当各种活动变成常规的时候都会让人厌倦”这个准则。principle”原则，准则”；habit”习惯”；way”方式”；power”权力”。由首句的信息再结合选项可知，A选项正确。
02
通过文化背景解题
完形填空的语篇信息常渗透着各类相关的文化背景知识。有些选项的设置与文化背景相关，这就要求考生有较宽的知识面，同时要具备一定的文化意识，特别是要有对英语国家文化的敏感性和鉴别力，只有这样才能既快速又准确地解题。
03
通过复现词解题
这类题多为同义词、近义词和反义词的复现或同义词、近义词和反义词的异形的复现。这类试题主要是考查考生的整体篇章意识和对上下文的推断能力。
【典例】In particular, there was (and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies. Not all of these __1__ are the friendly, people－loving characters that appear in Disney films, and in some folk tales they are __2__ and cause much human suffering.
1．A. babies B. Beliefs C. fairies D. supermen
2．A. powerful B. Cruel C. frightened D. extraordinary
【分析】1.C根据空前的”a belief in fairies”可知，此处选C。属于原词的复现。
2．B根据空格后的”suffering”可知，此处选B。属于异形近义词的复现。
04
通过瞻前信息解题
该解法要求重点联系空前的信息。这种情况多出现在文章展开之后，这时前文已经含有丰富的语境信息，它们可能和后面的设空处有逻辑的或语境的联系，这样空前的信息就成为解题的根据。解题时一定要善于捕捉这些重要的信息。
【典例】That's especially impressive, ____1(since) she is legally blind, born with a rare condition that causes her eyes to shift constantly. She often sees double and can't __2(tell) how far away things are.
When she was little, her mom__3(noticed) that even though she couldn't see __4__， she was fearless.
4．A. deeply B. Well C. ahead D. closely
【分析】B根据上文中的”she is legally blind”和”She often sees double and can't __2(tell) how far away things are”可知，她的视力不好。
05
通过顾后信息解题
完形填空在命题的过程中，上下文情节的发展都会有这样或那样的关系，这些关系是选择正确选项的重要根据，考生需要依据空格后的相关信息，做出正确的选择。
【典例】For example, on Christmas morning, children are excited about __43(playing) with their new toys. But their __44__ soon wears off and by January those __45(same) toys can be found put away in the basement.
44．A. confidence B. interest C. anxiety D. sorrow
【分析】Bconfidence”信心”；interest”兴趣”；anxiety”焦虑”；sorrow”悲伤”。根据空格后的”those __45(same)__ toys...in the basement”可知，那些他们曾经很喜欢的玩具都被放在地下室里了。故此处表示他们对新玩具的兴趣逐渐消失了。
06
通过逻辑关系解题
逻辑连接词在文中起着衔接与连贯的重要作用，可以表达文中的因果、转折等逻辑关系。这种题型是高考中的难点，因为它需要考生有较强的逻辑判断能力以及对文章的整体把握能力。
【典例】All went well that first week. When Saturday night came, I was luckily given the tables not far from the kitchen. __1__， I still felt it a little hard to carry the heavy trays.
1．A. Therefore B. However C. Otherwise D. Finally
【分析】B根据空格前的”luckily”和空格后的”I still felt it a little hard”可知，前后为转折关系。therefore”因此”；however”然而”；otherwise”否则”；finally”最后”。根据语境可知选B项。
07
通过固定搭配解题
在英语学习中，掌握词组和短语的用法十分重要。高考完形填空的命题中，通常会涉及固定短语的搭配，如动词短语、介词短语等，考生需要运用所学词汇知识，结合综合语用能力对相关试题进行突破。
【典例】But Charlotte had been practising without a licence. She had __34__ a doctor's licence in both Montreal and Winnipeg...
34．A. put away B. taken over
C. turned in D. applied for
【分析】D根据第一句Charlotte的诊所一直是无证营业可知，此处表示她一直在申请(applied for)行医执照。put away”将……收起，把……放回原处”，take over”接管”，turn in”上交”，均不符合语境。
08
通过生活常识解题
完形填空题所选的文章多是具有一定故事情节和教育意义的记叙文，这些文章都贴近考生的生活，这样就会涉及对生活常识的考查，所以在解题时，考生需要根据生活常识选出答案。
【典例】They were strong and cold, rocking our little camping truck violently, and we lay__43__ in the dark until the winds died away.
43．A. shaking B. Quarrelling C. mourning D. aching
【分析】A根据语境可知，此处表示作者一家人在车上躺着，人随着卡车在晃动，因此选A表示”摇动，(使)颤动”。
09
通过语法分析解题
对语法基础知识的考查也是完形填空题的重要命题角度。对于这种题，要有针对性地对语法结构、句式特点、句子成分等进行分析，从而迅速解决问题。
【典例】__1__ do you suppose he asked for them?
1．A. What B. How C. Who D. Which
【分析】B本题中，do you suppose为插入成分。he asked for them是一个相对独立和完整的句子，因此空格处应该用副词How来修饰谓语动词asked，而不能用代词What, Who或Which。
总之，通过对以上各种解题技巧的解读，我们可以发现，完形填空的解题是有规律可循的。总的来看，这些规律可概括为：上下求索找信息、深思熟虑辨逻辑、左顾右盼选搭配、前思后想靠常识。
