2、重点难点
① 考查以实词为主，比如动宾搭配、动词与介副词的搭配。
② 与情节推理和逻辑推理相结合的考查特定情景下的语义辨析题有一定难度。
③ 根据常规、情节发展进行判断选择的试题是出现较多的考查形式之一。
④ 既没有上下文提示，也没有故事情节常规发展依托的逻辑推理题，需要对文章有深层的理解，再透过表象看实质，是难度最大的试题形式。
3、热点冷点
① 以记叙文为主，内容涉及史实背景、风土人情、生活常识、经历体验等。
② 连环题之间的连贯性、逻辑性强，应倍加注意[经典与原创]
[例1]( NMET2003完形)
I played a racquetball game against my cousin Ed last week. It was one of the most 36 and tiring games I’ve ever had.
36. A. encouraging B. hopeless
C surprising D. regular
[互动] 本文为记叙文。全文以壁球比赛为主线，描写了作者对Ed的态度由不屑一顾——吃惊——尊敬的转变过程。内容贴近学生生活，语言通俗易懂。本题四个选项的形容词填入空白处都可以作定语修饰games， 但从下文叙述的在与表弟打壁球的比赛中，作者没有估计到情况的变化，险些输给对手的球赛经历可以判断出，这次球赛是出人意料的，故C项是最佳答案。
[答案] C
[小结]遵循完形填空的解题步骤的第一步：通读全文，力争了解整篇含义，抓住主题思想，切忌边读边做，肢解全文的整体结构，冲散了信息之间的逻辑联系，欲速则不达。
[例2] Each 38 at twelve o’clock, he opened the bag and 39 a Tomorrow, just one, with its wings of 40 , and its shining feathers rose with hope.
38. A. dawn B. morning C. night D. afternoon
39. A. got B. fetched C. took D. flew
40. A. blue B. pink C. black D. white
[互动] 本文是小品文，用拟人的手法描述时间老人袋子里的“Tomorrows”。根据常识，午夜十二点以后是新的一天，即一个“Tomorrow”，故38题选night；本文把明天比作是有羽毛的小鸟，因此午夜十二点时间老人放飞一只“Tomorrow”，39题只有flew与题意相符，其他都表示相反的意思；40题根据下文的its blue wings可见“Tomorrow”的翅膀是蓝色的。
[答案] 38. C 39. D 40. A
[小结] 同一句子中挖空两个甚至更多，难度增大，根据常识，结合上下文线索，注意合理性和连贯性。
