Step 1 Introduction
語法填空題是廣東省2007高考的一種新題型。在一篇大約180多詞的、難度適中的短文中，挖出10個空格，每空1.5分，滿分15分。有的空格后有提示，有的沒有提示，要求完成固定短語搭配、語法填空、詞形變化等。因為不給出任何選項，這就加大了學生做題的難度，對學生提出了更高的要求。因此，我們平時必須不斷的加強這一方面的訓練，到高考時才能從容鎮定，應對自如。
Step 2 Main content
一、命題特點
1．所選短文大約180多詞，難度適中，基本符合高中生閱讀。
2．挖空一般較均勻，不過密也不過疏。所缺的地方一般不會影響學生對文章的理解。
3．出題更多的是從詞匯搭配和語言知識的運用上著手，上下文的理解放在相對次要的位置。
4．出題一般涉及到以下幾個方面：1）動詞與介詞或副詞搭配構成的固定動詞短語；2）冠詞的用法；3）連詞的用法，包括從屬連詞和并列連詞；4）派生詞的用法；5）動詞的適當形式；6）情態動詞的用法；7）定語從句、名詞性從句的引導詞等。
二、解題方法及技巧
1．通讀全文，把握大意。
通讀全文的目的是為了把握全文的大意，為下一步填空做好語義上的準備。因為語義決定著空白處應填一個什么樣的詞語并采用什么樣的語法形式。在通讀全文的過程中，為了準確地把握其大意，很有必要弄清文章的題材，體裁，中心思想，寫作線索，篇章結構，段落層次，邏輯關系，詞句理解等。這樣有助于考生真正讀懂文章大意，也有利于填空時進行必要的邏輯推理。
2．仔細閱讀，嘗試填空。
在通讀全文，基本把握文章大意之后，就可以著手嘗試填空了。這一步是解題的關鍵，是一個對每個段落層次以及整個語篇中的詞匯、句子、語義、語言結構和上下文語境進行綜合分析并做出判斷的復雜的思維過程，也是對每個考生的英語語法基本功，英語語篇的感覺能力，和運用英語思維的檢驗過程。
做題時，要求考生對空白處的詞性能作出迅速的判斷，對文章句子的結構能作出準確的分析。然后才能準確無誤地填出答案。
3．復讀全文，檢查答案。
所有的空白處都填好了。這時，我們有必要把整篇文章從頭至尾復讀一遍。從語義和邏輯的角度審視全文，從詞義辨析，詞語搭配，和習慣用語等方方面面仔細推敲，看其語法是否正確，行文是否通順流暢，條理是否清晰，邏輯是否合理，是否符合語感。要仔細揣摩，準確定奪。
另外，還要特別注意單詞的拼寫，千萬不能犯由于單詞寫錯而導致失分的低級錯誤。
三、備考策略
1．不斷記憶，積累詞匯。
2．夯實基礎，學好語法。
3．大聲朗讀，培養語感。
語感是一種對語言、語段或詞句的感受能力，是一種看不見摸不著的東西，但在做填空題時又是必不可少的東西。嫻熟的語感的形成不是一蹴而就的，要在平時的學習過程中多聽，多讀，尤其是大聲朗讀猶為重要。在早讀或晚讀時間，拋開顧忌，放開喉嚨，大聲朗讀，對培養語感是非常重要的。如果通過朗讀能夠多背誦一些課文是再好不過的了。語感在你的朗讀和背誦課文的過程中，不知不覺地逐步形成了。
4．堅持不懈，多做練習。
總之，“冰凍三尺，非一日之寒。”備考語法填空題，平時既要積累扎實的基本功，又要掌握一定的解題技巧。只有這樣，在高考中我們才能旗開得勝。
四．語法填空題的四大命題特點
1. 考查語法。每一個空格的設置都必定涉及到某一條或某幾條語法規則，不會單純考查單詞的拼寫和詞組的用法。
例 1 In Greece, women had little freedom. Wealthy women hardly left their houses, but they____ (allow) to attend weddings and some festivals.
解析：因allow與they在邏輯上是動賓關系，要用被動語態，用be
allowed；由had, left可知be是一般過去式；主語是復數they，be的過去式是were，答案是were allowed。
點評：此題就涉及到動詞的時態、語態和主謂一致三條語法規則。
例 2 The ____ why I was sad was that he didn't understand me.
解析：因為why 引導的定語從句，前面的先行詞一定是reason。
點評：此題看起來好像是考查填入恰當的名詞，但實際上是考查定語從句。
像下題這樣重點考查單詞拼寫的試題，在高考語法填空題中出現的機會是不大的。
例3 It was ___(笨拙的) to use as one of the points of reference was the moving ship itself.
解析：此題答案為awkward。
點評：解答此題與句子意思理解無關，與語境更無關系，也與語法規則無多大關系，只考查單詞的識記。
2. 考慮語境。既然采用短文的形式來考查語法，其目的就是要利用短文有較強語境的特點來命題，否則，就不如用單句來考查語法了。也就是說，考生要填出正確答案，至少需理解整個句子的意思或各分句之間的邏輯關系，或者需要理解前后幾個句子，甚至整個段落或篇章。
例4 Several changes have brought wild animals to the . Foremost, air and water quality in many cities have improved as a result of the 1970's pollution control efforts…
解析：在冠詞the后必定是名詞，再根據下句可確定要填cities。
點評：本題若只根據設空句本身，而不閱讀并理解下文，是不可能填出正確答案的。
誠然，像下列之類無需考慮語境的試題也有可能出現，但筆者認為，即使有，也不會多。
例5 I should have known when to hold fast and when to let go, which can help me avoid __ (feel) great pressure and upset.
解析：因為在avoid后作賓語的動詞只能用-ing形式，所以答案為feeling。
點評：只要知道avoid 后接動詞的-ing形式，就可填出答案，考生無需理解上下文，也無需理解本句句意即可填出答案，即解答此題無需考慮語境。
3. 考點分散。基本上一個空格代表一個語法點，10個空有可能涉及到10個語法點，至少也得有7個語法點。筆者認為，即使對一些非常重要的語法項目，如動詞時態、非謂語動詞、不定代詞等，單獨一項也可能是一空，至多兩空，設三空的可能性是極小的。
4. 適當提示。
例6 Oil prices have risen by 32 percent since the start of the year, (reach) a record US$ 57.65 a barrel on April 4.
解析：reach及后面的內容是伴隨著謂語動詞的發生而產生的自然結果，用現在分詞作狀語，故填reaching。
例7 It would be _____ (believe) that such an honest fellow
should have betrayed his friends!
解析：因為在系動詞be后作表語，要用believe的形容詞形式believable；由句意“這樣一個老實人竟會出賣朋友，真難以置信!”可知，還要在前面加上表示相反意義的前綴un，答案為 unbelievable。
Step 3 Explanation and deduction
五、典型例題示范
閱讀下面短文，根據上下文填入適當的詞語，或使用括號中的詞語的適當形式填空，并將答案填寫在答題卡上標號為36-45的相應位置。
Eric Clapton is one of the most __36_(success) rock stars of alltime. He has sold millions of copies of his records_37______ has
appeared in concerts all over the world.
Clapton was born in 1945 in a small town, __38__ is near London. When he was only two years old, his mother left him. Eric was brought __39__ by his grandparents. Until he was nine he believed that they were his parents and it was __40__ terrible shock when he found out that they weren't. But his grandparents treated him well. They paid for him _41_(go) to art college. __42___ Eric had already become interested in music and he started
playing the guitar in bars and clubs.
Clapton first became famous when he started a group __43__ (call) Cream. Not only __44 he play the guitar and sing but also he could write excellent songs. But while on stage he was the brilliant guitar-playing superstar, his private life was falling apart. __45_ his marriage broke off, he started taking drugs.
答案：
36. successful 37. and 38. which 39. up 40. a
41. to go 42. but 43. called 44. could45. After
本篇文章粗略地介紹了超級搖滾巨星Eric Clapton的生活。
36. 此處應該填形容詞successful.
37. 他已經出售了成百萬張唱片，而且也出現在全世界的音樂會上。前后兩部分在語義上是并列關系。因此填and.
38. 此處是非限制性定語從句，先行詞是地點在從句中缺少主語，故用which.
39. 當他兩歲的時候，他媽媽就離開了他。Eric當然是由爺爺奶奶撫養長大。因此我們填brought up. 此處是被動語態。
40. 當他了解到他們不是（他的父母親時），那是一個非常糟糕的打擊。shock 在這里是抽象名詞具體化，因此用不定冠詞a.
41. 但是爺爺奶奶對他很好，他們出錢讓他去美術學院。Pay for sb. to do sth.
42. 但是Eric已經對音樂產生了興趣，他開始在酒吧和夜總會彈吉他。此處表示轉折關系，用But.
43. 他創辦了一個名叫Cream 的樂隊，由此就成名了。a group 和call 之間是動賓關系，因此我們填called，過去分詞短語做后置定語。.
44. 根據后半句也可知。他不僅能邊彈吉他邊唱歌，而且還能寫優秀的歌曲。
45. 在舞臺上，他是一個才華橫溢的超級巨星。（但是）他的私生活卻在逐步的土崩瓦解。在他的婚姻生活結束之后，他開始了吸毒。根據文章的意思，此處應該用介詞after.
六．解答語法填空題的八條思路
要做好語法填空題，理解短文是解題的前提，扎實的詞匯、句型和語法知識是基礎，英語國家背景知識是必要的補充。現以下題為例，談談語法填空題的解題思路。
閱讀下面短文，根據上下文填入適當的詞語，或使用括號中的詞語的適當形式填空：
A proverb says, “Time is money”. But in my opinion, time is even 1 precious than money. Why? 2 when money is spent, we can earn it back. However, when time is 3 , it will never return.
4 is known to all that the time we can use is limited.
Therefore we should make 5 use of our time to study hard so as to serve our country in 6 future.
But it is a pity that there are a lot of people 7 do not realize the value of time. They 8 ___ their precious time smoking, drinking and playing.
In a word, we should form the good habit of 9 (save) time. Do not put off what can be done today 10 tomorrow.
1. 根據語法知識進行填充
第1題，由than可知，precious要用比較級，多音節形容詞的比較級在前面加more，故此題答案為more。
第7題，因there are…是個句子，do not…應是一個定語從句，缺主語，先行詞是人，應填who。
2. 根據邏輯關系進行填充
就是根據上下文的邏輯關系來解題。
第2題，因前句用Why提問，應當用Because來回答，故此題答案是Because。
3. 根據語篇標志進行填充
語篇是指比單個句子長的語言單位（句群、段落、篇章等）。語篇間往往有標明內在聯系的詞，我們稱這些詞為“語篇標志詞”。如表示結構層次的有first, second, third, finally等；表示邏輯關系的有thus，therefore，so等；表示轉折關系或變換話題的有however, but, by the way等。“語篇標志詞”對迅速理清文章的脈絡，弄清上下文關系很有幫助。
第3題，由However可知，是指當時間失去的時候，表示“失去”是gone。
第5題，由Therefore可知，應充分利用時間，故用形容詞full來修飾名詞use。
4. 根據固定詞組進行填充
熟練掌握一些常見的詞組，如as a matter of, be proud of, by the way, come from, congratulate…on…, devote…to…, earn one’s living, keep one’s word, make up one’s mind等，對解題很有幫助。
第6題，表示“在將來”是固定詞組in the future。
5. 根據句型搭配進行填充
就是根據一些常用的句型搭配，如so/such…that…, it is…(for sb.) to do sth., There is no doubt that…, there is no sense in doing sth.等來解題。
第4題，作形式主語，用It，真正的主語是后面的that從句。
6. 根據詞匯知識進行填充
指根據某些詞語在用法上的特殊搭配來解題。如下列各類動詞必須牢記：只能接動詞的-ing形式作賓語的動詞，只能接to do作賓語的動詞，接to do作補語的動詞，接do作補語的動詞，接doing或done作補語的動詞，對句式搭配要求較為特別的詞語，等等。
第8題，由time smoking可想到是spend time (in) doing句型，這是由spend的用法特別所決定的；這里是一般現在時，主語是復數，填spend。
第9題，因of是介詞，介詞后的動詞通常要用-ing形式，故填saving。
7. 根據生活常識進行填充
第10題，結合生活常識，不難理解句意為“不要把今天能做的事推遲到明天去做”，答案自然是表示“直到”的until/till。
8. 根據文化背景進行填充
就是根據英語國家的文化背景知識來解題。
如After the flood Mr. Deng was as poor as a church_______.
這句話的意思是“水災后鄧先生一貧如洗了”。as poor as a church mouse（一貧如洗），所以此處填mouse。
又如Nobody wants to go out, for it is raining cats and ______ now.
這句話的意思是“因為外面大雨滂沱，沒有人想出去”。It rains cats and dogs.是“大雨滂沱”之意，故此處填dogs。
當然，上述的解題思路不可能萬試萬靈。扎實的語言知識和綜合語言運用能力才是解題根本。除掌握解題技巧外，建議同學們做到以下幾點：(1)系統復習語法知識。(2)熟練掌握課標詞匯。(3)堅持每天練習一篇。
語法填空 仔細閱讀下面短文，短文中有10個空格。請按照每小題的語法要求，完成語法填空或詞形變換。
Experiments have proved that children can [1] (instruct)in swimming at a very early age. At a special swimming pool in Los Angeles, children become expert at [2] their breath under water even before they can walk. [3] of two months old do not appear to be reluctant to enter the water. It is not long [4] they are so accustomed to swimming [5] they can pick up weights from the floor of the pool. A game that is very popular with these young [6] (swim) is the underwater tricycle race. Tricycles are lined up on the floor of the pool seven feet under water. The children compete against each other to reach the other end of the pool.
Many pedal their tricycles, [7] most of them prefer to push or drag them. Some children [8] (情態動詞)cover the whole length of the pool [9] (介詞)coming up for breath even once. Whether they will ever become future Olympic champions, only time will
tell. Meanwhile, they should encourage [10] (代詞) among us who cannot swim five yards before they are gasping for air.
答案與解析：
1. be instructed 因instructed與children是動賓關系，要用被動語態，即“be+動詞的過去分詞”，情態動詞后用動詞原形。
2. holding 由under water可知是“屏住氣”，固定搭配hold one’s breath；又因在介詞(at)后要用動詞的-ing形式。
3. Babies 由上下文可知是指“二個月大的嬰兒”，baby的復數是變y為i再加es。
4. before 因it is not long before…(不久以后就)是固定句型。
5. that 因為so…that…(如此……以致……)是固定句型。
6. swimmers 由with可知，后接的是名詞，又由young和句意可知是指人，即“游泳者”，且為復數。
7. but 前后是轉折關系。
8. can 由語境可知空格單詞意思為“能夠”。
9. without由語境可知是“不用冒出水面呼吸”。
10. those 由語境，特別是among us和后面的who引導的定語從句可知，指“那些人”。

[2007廣東語法填空試題]
I was on my way to the Taiyetos Mountains. The sun was setting when my car 31(break) down near a remote and poor village. Cursing my misfortune, I was wondering where I was going to spend the night when I realized that the villagers who had gathered around me were arguing as to 32 should have the honor of receiving me 33 a guest in their house. Finally, I accepted the offer of an old woman who lived alone in a little house. While she was getting me 34 (settle) into a tiny but clean room, the head of the village was tying up his horse to my car to pull it to 35 small town some 20 kilometres away 36 there was a garage.
I had noticed three hens running free in my hostess's courtyard and that night one of them ended up in a dish on my table. 37 villagers brought me goat's cheese and honey. We drank together and talked 38 (merry) till far into the night. When the time came for me to say goodbye to my friends in the village, I wanted to reward the old woman 39 the trouble I had caused 40 .
下面是來自閱卷人的信息：
分析一：
從以上評分標準中可以看出，語法填空每空只填一個單詞，
分析二：
從答案形式來分析，原文提供三個詞供考生變化（31題的break, 34題的settle, 38題的merry），兩個須填理解句子成分的從句引導詞（32題的who, 36題的where），兩個需要理解上下文才能填的代詞（37題的Other, 40題的her），兩個接近于是固定搭配的介詞（33題的as, 39題的for），關鍵在于理解句意。
分析三：
37題填where得1.5，填Other得1.0分。平時我們沒有1.0分的說法，更不用說做法了。
分析四：
語法填空要求嚴格區分大小寫，原因是有前后文，而聽取信息是填表格，對大小寫的區分相對不是很嚴格。
反思一：
如果說2007屆高考老師們心里沒底，主要是由于對考綱研究不夠透徹，不夠準確，從07高考英語樣題中可以看出，每空只能添一個單詞。因此，認真研究考綱樣題，剖析考綱樣題，把握考綱樣題，是我們所有高中英語教師的是十分必要的。
反思二：
更重要的是，平時訓練命題，選材，選資料可以更慎重，仔細看看是否符合新高考的
命題細節標準。
注：單詞拼寫錯誤，大小寫未區分不給分。
