   三、妙招三全面考虑定选项

   整体理解短文、把握中心并根据文中线索（含体裁、时态变化线索、词汇线索、句法线索、社会文化线索、上下文线索等）由易到难地做出选择。

   [注] 不要试图从头至尾地去解答完形填空题。有的选项内容在短文的其他地方有较为明确的提示，甚至原封不动地重现。

   四、妙招四复读全文验答案

   把填充后的短文反复阅读一两遍（甚至多遍），逐一检查、校对所选答案是否符合短文中心及上下文要求，并确保没有不符合语言规范、不符合语法规则的选项。

   [注] 很多同学做完形填空题存在一个误区，把很多的时间放到四个选项的比较上，这会降低解题效率。正确做法应是：

   顺藤摸瓜，首先是藤，你拿到文章之后要重点读第一句。

   瞻前顾后，在文章空格的上下文处，你觉得这个地方需要什么词，带着这个目的到四个选项里找。

   顾全大局，做一道题时应该在段落里面理解一句话。

   认清细节，比如考固定搭配的题。

   猜想试题

   阅读下面短文，掌握大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
