考生的完形填空解题能力很弱，究其原因并非只是完形填空解题能力本身的问题，而是篇章理解能力较低、英语的综合能力较弱。主要表现在词汇量小、语法知识匮乏、阅读理解能力弱。

试想一下：你拿到一篇短文，实际是把完形填空中所有空都填好的阅读材料，结果你看不懂短文，不能“自圆其说”。如果是这种情况，又如何才能解答好完形填空试题呢？！

此题无解！

如何提升词汇总量、完善语法知识等方面的问题，此处不做赘述。但是，必须强调的是：夯实基础与篇章理解能力的培养不冲突，可以同时并行，相辅相成。如何利用高考真题提升词汇量和阅读理解能力这一问题在《高考英语最后30天抢分绝招之四 高考英语阅读理解提分策略》已经有具体介绍，此处不再重复。

好了，我们还是谈谈完形填空题吧！

我们针对考生完形填空试题的答题情况进行调查发现，正确率高的同学答题流程各种各样，但是他们有三个共同特征：语篇理解顺畅，能够“自圆其说”；按照难易度顺序答题，不按照序号顺序答题；无论语篇难度大小，通读语篇次数超过两次。

根据这三个特征和完形填空的试题特点，我们规划出一个完形填空解题的最佳流程。这一个流程，已经通过考生的反复验证，适用于各种水平能力的考生。

完形填空解题三遍流程：

（1）. 第一遍：带空快速阅读全文，获取短文的主旨大意。要求侧重首句、尾句、关键词（重复次数多的实词），可以尝试画出简易的篇章结构图。建议时间2-3分钟。

注意：第一遍阅读过程中，会出现把个别带空语句完整读出来的情况。有时多，有时少，有人多，有人少。与考生的水平和试题难度有关。这样解答出的试题，只需从选项中验证一下即可。

（2）. 第二遍：带空慢速阅读全文，逐句理解、逐空试填。要求侧重篇章的整体逻辑，能够“自圆其说”地解释所选答案。不拘泥于试题顺序，遇到难题时，先排除错项，缩小可选范围。建议时间8-11分钟。

注意：第二遍阅读过程中，一般可以解答出大部分甚至全部试题。如果出现个别试题无法解答，千万不要乱猜、乱选。不要强求不可知，要从已知推未知，当我们进行完第三遍阅读时，也许难题不那么难了。

（3）. 第三遍：把所选词填入短文，快速阅读“完形”后的短文。要求侧重判断语篇是否顺畅，判断逻辑是否可以“自圆其说”。建议时间3-5分钟。

注意：第三遍阅读过程中，要核实、验证前两遍的选择是否合理，还要基于越来越多的已知部分，对剩余难题进行突破。

熟练运用此流程解答完形填空试题，可以逐渐进入一个良性循环：语篇理解能力和长难句分析能力日益强大，正确率一点点提高。

推荐练习（注意此篇完形的两个特点：1、所有选项均为实词；2、不结合上下文context，只按照单句无法解答任何一个试题。因为差不多四个选项都有道理。）

As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine(常规)basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this 41 at work in people of all 42 .
