「答案解析」 完型填空解题思路:
1.借助被选项的特点缩小答案范围,确认答案判断方向;
2.借助空格两端的搭配结构特点判断答案;
3.借助空格所在句子中用词特点猜测答案;
4.借助空格所在句子句意判断答案;
5.围绕文章中心(标题反应内容)猜测答案;
6.借助上下文用词/语意判断答案。
解析:
1. A.分析:被选项是介词,注意搭配结构。in reality,“实际上,事实上”是固定搭配。
2. B.分析:借助被选项的特点:know = be aware,排除A和D,再借助搭配结构(……是天真的)判断B(想象)是答案。
3. C.分析:1et跟原形动词,go符合这一原则。
4. D.分析:根据搭配结构(……小瓶),判断D最合适(而且该句和前句中都没有出现比较的含义)。
5. A.分析:该句结构是“句子 短语结构”,因此空格处的连词必须能引导一个独立的句子,这样判断只有A合适(其他选项都只能引导从句结构)。
6. B.分析:借助被选项的特点B和C相关,用法不同,重点注意,再借助空格后是名词性结构这个特点判断B合适。
