【試題點評】完型填空為了測試考生實際應用英語的能力和語感。具體説來，是從語篇的角度綜合測試考生的閲讀理解能力、詞彙的掌握和對英語習慣用語的熟悉程度、以及語法規則的靈活運用。這部分大家一定要注重思路和尋找線索能力的訓練，一般做題的基本思路是，根據已知信息去填空，根據空前後的線索來選擇填什麼。比方説，題目讓考生填主句的內容，那麼從句中就會有相應的説明。題目讓考生填動詞，原文常常在別的地方出現這個動詞的同義詞。那麼如何判斷呢？首先根據需要填寫動詞後面出現的賓語，找到有同一賓語的'句子，該句中的動詞就是所需填寫詞的同義詞。具體相關知識點和解題思路在考研教育網衝刺階段英語衝刺班的完型填空部分有重點講解，在強化班完形填空及考研詞彙中也有所涉及。
