三、解題技巧
    1、從具體的語言情境考慮。
    例1 Mrs O'Neill asked questions, and she didn't scold us either.
    (A. no B. certain C. many D. more
    (B. 該題可通過下句中的“either”一詞,可以推斷出該句是一個否定句,故選A。
    例2 First of all he was a windowcleaner and in his first week he managed to break at least six windows. Then he became a bus conductor and on his second day a passenger stole his bag with all the fares collected. He 1 lost his job as a postman 2 he sent off all the letters when he should have taken them to people's houses. It seemed that there was 3 suitable work for him.
    1. A. thus B. even C. once D. only
    2. A. even if B. so that C. because D. though
    3. A. some B. such C. less D. no
    以上幾句敘述了John的不幸遭遇:做清潔工,打破玻璃,做售票員,錢又被偷;做郵遞員, 又把本該送到收件人家里的信件寄出。根據(jù)文章的這一情境,1空應選B,表遞進;2空則 說明lost his job的原因,故選C。由接連發(fā)生的不幸遭遇,從而得出結論:似乎無合適工 作可干了。故3空選D。
    2. 從上下文相關內(nèi)容考慮。
    例1 One day Mrs Nanete O'Neill gave an arithmetic to our class. When the papers were marked she discovered that twelve boys had ma de exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
    (A. test B. problem C. paper D. lesson)
    該題撇開具體上下文,A、B、C、D四個選項都能成立,而在把握全文整體意思的情況下,很 容易找到下文的重要信息詞:the test。故選A。
    例2 “In her eyes he couldn't do anything .”(A.wrong B.great C.good D.strange)在他母親眼中,他不可能做出什么事呢?僅從這一單句考慮,四個備選答案都沒錯。但根據(jù)上文的She loved John very much以及下文提到的:當Jo hn與其他士兵一起接受檢閱時,觀眾嘲笑John與其他士兵步調(diào)不一致,而他母親卻大叫:They are all out of step except my John! 到此,我們才能選出A項為正確答案。
    例3 ...in fact he had tried a few . First of all he was a windowcleaner...Then he became a bus conductor...(A. ones B. years C. tasks D. jobs)
    以上四個選項都可以用a few修飾,但根據(jù)下文的 a windowcleaner 和a bus conductor 可知,正確答案為D。
