部分讲解
（1）本篇文章是98NET完形填空考题。从第一遍通读中，我们知道了不少信息，充分利用上下文提供的信息，也就是我们常说的语境---语言环境，把握文章基调，才能找出正确答案。 文章本身是个故事，是以讽刺口吻写的。它向我们展示了一位盲目信赖、崇拜自己儿子的母亲。
3 根据中心，就知道这位母亲认为儿子一切正确、不会做错事，应选rng。
7．根据下文陈述的几项工作，而得出选jbs。
8．上文有anaged这个词，很容易选成lean，但读过下文后，我们会发现Jhn换了工作，可见他干了错事，选lean与下文不符，只能选break，才与下文连得起来。
11．前文已经谈到Jhn两次失误，这第三次与前两次的关系是递进关系，当然选even。
13．本空是对前面情况的总结，Jhn三次失败，说明没有工作适合于他，因此选n。
14．谈到Jhn下一步情况，选项的四个词都可以与下面的不定式连用，但意义不一样，began和anaged都表示已经采取行动，而从下文看，此时Jhn只是在作计划，prised 表示‘答应参加’，与上下文不符，只有deided可以说明Jhn的打算。
15．既然Jhn此时只是打算参军，还未行动，他的母亲谈到的只能是个消息，应选nes。19．与全篇基调一致，崇拜儿子的母亲对儿子的一切都感到自豪，因此是prud ther。20．本空所在的句子中有地点状语in the rd,我们可以看出应该选与地点有关的psitin。
24．后面紧接着They’re all,可见前面提到的是“他们”，应选the。
25．本空相对来说难一些，ut f rder是一个固定搭配，我们平时也常常用到它，但它与上下文不符合，上文提到’the ne h uldn’t keep pae ith the thers’,可见Jhn并不是“坏了”或“不合规定”，而是“不合步子”，要选step。
（2）本篇文章讲述了一个坚持不懈奋斗，最后终于成功的母亲。本文用了倒叙手法，这种手法在英语中是通过时态体现的，这一点，对于学生来说很容易忽略，因为中文不存在动词变形问题。因此学生做题时要通过考虑时态来分清时空关系。在第二段中，第一句和第二句的不同时态就可以看出，从第二句开始，作者开始对更早情况回忆。第三段虽然没有用过去完成时，但从意思上可以看出是对童年事件的回忆。第四段的第一句仍然是回忆，但后两句时态变化说明回忆停止。阅读时，首先应该看到这一点，思路要随着这个线索发展。
4 在文章刚刚开始阶段，讲的是作者写文章时的情况，当时作者虽已是三个孩子的母亲，已经四十多岁了，但还未成功。而出版商问的问题是有目的的，她问了作者的岁数，再问作者的健康情况，因为她怕作者经不住这个突然的消息，过度兴奋而出现问题，因此要选 health。
6 本空虽然在第二段，但与第一段事件一致，作者听到这个消息确实感到震惊，作者的这种感情与她过去的经历有直接的关系，shk恰如其分地表达了作者的这种感情。
9 本空处在作者对自己不断失败的回忆中，她不屈不挠，虽然失败，但立刻开始新的尝试，此空的四个选项虽然都可以与－ing形式搭配，但只有 gt dn t 的意义符合这种情况。
13 作者在回忆童年时期祖母对自己的影响，祖母当然只是讲故事，而不可能写故事，telling 是合适选项。
14、15 这两个空都说明了祖母对作者的影响，一个人有了热爱，才可能有投入，而祖母激起了作者对文学的热爱和她的想象力，这些都是作者坚持不懈写作的原因，其他词不能表达这种含义。
16 作者讲述并总结祖母对自己的影响，这种影响不是一般的影响，不是仔细的影响，只能是持续的影响，因此要选 lasting。
19 我们注意到作者做的这件事是在看孩子与做饭之间做的，这种时候，一般腾不出手来写作，也无法读书，只能思索、发展思路，因此只能选develping。
（3）本文讲述了泰国春天的风筝热。文章大多数设空都在考查学生根据上下文选择正确选项的能力。
1．上下文提到“风筝”，“强烈的兴趣”，在此只有把fire作动词用，才能与它的主语及宾语搭配，fire本意为“点燃”，而此时为“激发(兴趣)”之意。
2．根据此句的句意，大家对放风筝有一种狂热，句子中有nthing，与之搭配用shrt，就成了“决不缺乏热情”的意思。
4．此句的主语是skies, 天空中满是风筝飞舞，充满活力，alive恰到好处地表达了此意。6．根据下文提到的情景，一个大人站着，手中拿着线，眼睛盯着天空，显得傻乎乎的，fl就表达了这种意思。
11．父亲带女儿放风筝，装作是在满足女儿的要求，以致不会被看作傻乎乎，因此要选“要求”即request。
16．本文在此叙述到起源，因此选rted。
17．泰国是个“王国”，也就是Kingd，而在本句中提到了它，后面又用了反身代词itself，因此应选kingd。
(4) 本篇是1994年NET完形填空试题。全文第一句花提供了时间: early rning in suer, 清晨是什么样:人们赶去上班吧。这样就为我们继续往下考虑提示了一个方向。
第一段中尽管有三个空, 读完后可以意识到,这一天不是休息日: In the street, sleepy-eyed peple ere ving quikly; 但这一天又有什么不寻常的事: as t be different。第二段出现了一个具体人物---Philippe Petit, 身份是the daring Frenhan, daring"大胆的", 给我们提供考虑方向:他要做惊险的事。
1．根据文章提供的时间，自然想到人们清晨走向工作jbs, 此时ffies只能是一部分人的走向,范围太小。
3根据下文this day as t be different,使我们想到,应该选与different相对的rdinary, 而3应选but,使上下句的转折关系表现出来。
4 根据词组"等待" ait fr，很容易选fr, 但词组后面是rded streets,这是无法搭配的,不可能"等待街道"。句中the rded streets与n tp f a building f 110 stries high 是同位语,由此只能选abve---"等在街道上方"。
5 根据后文的the t ters f the rld Trade enter,可知该选building。
6 根据下文的Philippe alked his ay,可知应选alk。
11．这个空处在第四段，这段讲的是观众, 考虑问题要从观众角度出发。本句谓语动词是began t ntie，streets与ity是不会发出这样的动作的,我们可以不考虑; passengers乘客,表达范围太小; rds人群, 包括了各种各样的人,因此可选。
12．本空处在一个感叹句中,这个感叹是由观众发出的,观众从地面往上看到空中的小人影所作的表演,他们感叹的不是高度height,而是人的表演,他们发出的是惊叹的感觉,也就是nder。 pleasure有乐无惊, danger有险无奇, 都不足以说明当时观众的心情。 从文章用的词汇daring, even, astnishing等,所营造的气氛,及下一段Philippe所做的各种动作来看,nder是最合适的。
13．从地面观众角度看1350 feet高度的人,自然是 tiny figure。
14．根据下文的bak and frth，得知这是有来有回的运动，这种运动可以称为trips；irles是“环绕、转圈”的意思，在绷索上是无法做这种动作的；veents表现不出来回的动作，也不对。
17．能躺在绷索上，需要的是“勇气” --urage，光有精神spirit，或力量spirit，都是不够的。
（5）本文涉及了保护野生动物这个话题。文中Jerey不但自己不猎杀动物，而且影响了父亲，具有很好的教育意义。文章设空时，有些选项涉及了一般学生不熟悉的用法。学生平时阅读很有限，所见英语说法、用法都限制在较小的范围内，一旦超出范围，一些学生就只能瞎猜。从这点来看，学生平时扩大阅读量、扩大知识面，十分必要。
4．根据下文，Jerey给父亲照相，看来他是想缓和紧张与惧怕心理，ease在此是动词，意为“使减轻、安心”。
7．父亲在指导他打野鸭，此空前的修饰词是a sall，sund和trp虽然都可以用它修饰，但意义不对，flight在此是“飞翔的鸟群”的意思，这种用法是学生所没有见过的。
9．ildly修饰心跳得剧烈。
11．本空前面省了介词in, in the ay就说明了Jerey用的是父亲教给他的方式来操作。
17．Jerey下不了手的原因并不只是野鸭子可爱-lvely，或者活泼-lively；而是因为它们是活生生的-alive。这与上文的balaned beteen life and death就一致了。
20．ler在此作动词用，是“降低”的意思，也就是说Jerey没有放下手。
21．根据下文，父亲递给他照相机，这确实是他没有想到的，因此他有些不相信，选unbelieving。
24．父亲说有时不做一件事要与做一件事拿出同样的勇气，选urage，而不能选勇敢---bravery。
25．父亲转变态度，要学习用照相机了，因此选aera。
（6）本文涉及了教育问题，在美国，有些孩子辍学，并不是因为没钱，而是因为厌学（这种情况各国都有）。主人公ary Feldan看到这种情况，想出了很好的解决办法。标题Lving the blues就是全文中心，也就是ary Feldan想出的办法。
3reah ut在此 = ake effrts t d sth“作出努力做某事”的意思。
4本文涉及的只是学生逃学去玩儿的情况，这种情况的原因是他们对学习失去“兴趣”，而不是“幸福”或“信任”。
6Feldan在调查孩子们的兴趣时，当然要问什么使他们激动，而不会是“有印象”或“使满意”。
8realized是“意识到”的意思，也就是说有一个从不知道到知道的过程；而kne和thught不能体现出这个过程。
11根据后面的表示目的的动词，只能由人发出这些动作，此空只能选表示人物的名词。
13Feldan要实行计划需要钱，当地企事业帮助了她，在此用了 “resue”这个词，表达这个意义，其他词都不能表达这种意义。
18音乐家所做的事是把传统的东西传给孩子们，而不是仅仅给孩子们表演一下，四个选项中只有pass n能表达这种意义。
19se在此是“大约”的意思，相当于abut。
(7)本文讲述了纽约一位学法律的女大学生得到一笔遗产，她用这笔遗产，通过给低收入及失业妇女提供服装来帮助她们改变形象，最终取得工作。在这篇文章中体现了一种文化背景，这种背景对于有些学生来说是很难体会的，即：当人们去面试或工作时，他们一定要穿着得体，以便给别人留下好印象。而穿着不好，就可能意味着找不到工作。因此得体的服装对于妇女来说是非常重要的。
4 本空就体现了本文的文化背景，要选prly符合这种背景。
9．考查学生根据上下文做答的能力，学生在做完形填空时，一定要重视每一个细节，紧扣文章提供的线索，分析选项与文章线索的关系，找出正确答案。上文提到Nany找到diet enter的成员来捐赠衣服，人们一旦节食，他们的衣服可能就不合适了。因此应该选fit。12．Nany找到一个新的地方---baseent 储存衣服，本句是以地方作主语，如果用regard, 只能用在被动语态中；用serve as，表示“用作”，可以用地点作主语。
17．Nany开创的事业红火起来，捐赠越来越多，strea in 是个形象说法，形容捐赠滚滚而来。
18．put sth n hld 是个习惯表达法，意思是“暂时终止”；Nany 为了事业，只好先终止学业，因此选la studies。
（8）这篇文章介绍了一个传奇人物的事迹。主人公被称为Sn-she Jhn，可见他在这方面有建树，他利用Sn-she，为山区人民送邮件，被人们传为佳话。
5pass在此是“山间隘路”的意思。
6．本句中 as a by 是个时间状语，如果把这个状语放在句尾，就很容易看出本句应该选h了。
7Then and there是“就在当时当地”的意思。
11ith结构用来表示伴随情况，表示当时既没有道路也没有车马痕迹可以遵循的情况。
12urse在此是“进行方向”的意思。
13根据Jhn在上文所显示的决心及他本身所具有的体质看，风和寒冷是不会使他倒下的，但很可能使他减速，sl dn正是这个意思。
19山村的人们看到一个装束奇怪的生人，就都会跑出家门来观看，pur ut是个形象的用法，表达人们“涌出”家门的情形。
（9）本文是一篇描绘性文章，全文的故事情节并不曲折，但考查了学生是否能跟随文章思路发展，找到正确答案。
5．年轻妇女到底坐在男青年的旁边还是对面，从下文中我们看到，当她往窗外看时才转头，而此时却不转头，可见她坐在男青年对面，我们选ppsite。
7．从文章中我们看到first这个词，即男青年刚刚把编织的针拿出来，因此只能选ut，而不是up。
8．hardly是否定意义，不能选；even表示进一步关系，没有道理，也不选；如果选alst与后面动词搭配，说明她几乎想要，而不是真的要，与上下文不符，也不能选；只有really 能说明当时她的想法。
9．say sething是干扰项，下文提到她确实与男青年说了话，可见不能选；sile是微笑，这种动作谈不到不礼貌，也不选；只有laugh说明当时她的想法。
11．选项中的ding是干扰项，而此时她已经看到男青年在干什么了，因此只能问他在织什么，要选aking。
13．think是干扰项，它表示一个人的想法，如果男青年不认为织手套有用，他是不会织的，而他要想证明这种手套确实有用，只能选find。
15．火车要进站前，应该减速，因此选sled dn。
16．这句话用了倒装句型，选项中只有nly在句子开头才可能出现倒装句，因此只有选它。
20．我们首先要看主语it指的是什么，如果指毛线球，根据常识，我们知道毛线球掉到水里后不可能继续滚，因此不能选rlling；此时it指的是天气，选raining造成与文章开头的et呼应，使全文流畅。
（10）本篇文章讲述了一个大学生打工的经历及体验。文中大多数设空都是根据上下文语境要求所设。只有把文章来龙去脉看清楚，认真体会所缺词在文中所起作用，才能选出正确答案。
1．本句的主语是it，也就是主人公工作的小店，在此是要说这个小店的地点，situated这个过去分词作定语，意思是“座落在”，表达了这种意义。
3．主人公的身份是店员，她不需要烧咖啡，只要倒咖啡、端咖啡，因此选pured“倾倒”。
5．burst int形象地表达出孩子们蜂拥冲进店铺的情况。
6．成人看到孩子们挤满店铺，他们就不再进来，而是走过去，因此选pass。
11．当有人把车票丢了，作者还会借钱给他们，issing表达了这种意义。
16．urred t是“想到”的意思，主语是想法，t后面接人。
18．当来人问起这件事，作者只得承认，aditted 在此是“承认”的意思。
25．根据上文别人把作者称为Dughnuts Lady，这是一个称号，因此选title。
（11）本文是一篇报导，此篇报导涉及了一个热门话题：环境保护问题。这种体裁及题材在日常生活中，尤其是在报刊杂志中最为常见。因此文章的实用性体现得极为突出。有些学生只会阅读书本上特定题目的文章，一旦离开书本就无所适从。因此我们应该适应这种文章的结构。文章中，有年轻人的困难、他的努力、他的成功、他的看法以及别人对他的看法。同时文章没有根据时间顺序平铺直叙。以上这些都需我们读文章时仔细体会并熟悉这种语体。
1．根据第一段所叙述的情况看，事情发生在白天，同时，能够跳跃在树影之间的，只有“阳光”。
3．在描述了一个春天的阳光明媚的景象后，连词but一转折，仔细观察，就发现了麻烦，lser在此是“更仔细”的意思。
4．根据上文叙述得知，麻烦来自污染，垃圾飘浮在河上，并挂在树枝上。在河上运完木材后，往往有一些剩木头会聚在一个角落，垃圾也会被圈在其中，trapped形象地表现出这种情况。
8．根据前面的修饰词ne-an，如果选rk，意思就是这个工作只要一个人就行；而与effrt搭配，就意味着只有一个人在努力，这种意思与全文是符合的。其他两个选项都与这个空相差很远。
13．根据下文中的baking“支持”，可见应该选supprter“支持者”。
16．had和他的伙伴们从河中拉起的垃圾可以覆盖一个足球场，ver正是这个意义；而spread“铺开”，意味着他们特意把垃圾铺开在球场上，因此不选。
18．in prgress这个词组的意思是“在进展中”；其他的词组都与此时的上下文无关。
19．这个同位语是the ississippi River Basin Alliane的同位语，说明这个组织的性质因此选unin。
23．此空设在islands后面，是修饰islands的，而islands与ateray的关系应该是dtting，即“岛屿散落在河道上”。
24．had孩童时在密西西比河上掘蚌、在岛屿上玩儿，这一切带给他的是快乐－－－jy，而在这种情况下，pride“骄傲”则过分了。
（12）本文讲述了一个男孩在比赛中受伤，因为受到一位他所崇拜的球星的鼓舞，恢复了自信心，最后战胜伤疼，迅速痊愈的故事。文章设空大部分都考查学生根据上下文做答的能力，因此看懂文章，仔细分析，才能做好这个完形填空。
6．Jhnny在比赛中受了重伤，虽然住院治疗，但不见好转，医生觉得应该使他在精神上战胜困难，因此提到这种新的方法是“医药”---ediine 所无能为力的。其他三个答案都不是医生治疗所用的方法，因此不选。
7．对于Jhnny来说，他不能起床，因此只能 eet“会见”他所想见的人，而不能visit“走访”他所想见的人。
10．父亲要尽微薄之力，least正体现父亲至少可以作的事，The least I an d is try 的意思是“至少我可以试试”。
19．在本句中，his eyes 是动作的发出者，因此不能选用lking, 只能选shining, 意思是“眼睛发亮”。
22．Sure enugh 是习惯用语，意思是“当然了”。
