五、注意經驗常識
考查考生在日常的學習和生活中所積累的經驗和基本常識，以及一些基本的科學常識。請看下面北京卷中的一個小題：
But we run so much that, afterwards, we had trouble ___45___.
A. speaking B. moving C. sleeping D. breathing
【分析】跑得太多，其結果當然是上氣不接下氣，即呼吸(breathing)困難了，我們一般都會有這樣的生活經歷。

六、注意文章結構
考查考生對文章脈絡層次的把握能力。請看下面全國卷中的一個小題：
First of all, I respected his devotion to teaching...___43___, I admired the fact that he would talk to students outside the classroom or talk...Finally, I was attracted by his lively sense of humor.
43. A Later B. Secondly C. However D. Therefore
【分析】本文的寫作結構很清楚：開篇點題——難忘的哲學教授；諸條陳述——何以難忘：前有First of all提起, 后有Finally落腳，那么中間只有用Secondly來過渡了。

七、注意邏輯推理
考查考生根據文意和所掌握的知識經驗進行簡單的邏輯推理來確定選項的能力。請看下面全國卷中的一個小題：
He was reading my words out loud to the class...the whole class was laughing with open-hearted enjoyment. I did my best not to show ___53___, but what I was feeling was pure happiness...
53. A. shock B. wonder C. worry D. pleasure
【分析】一個學生的作品被老師選中且在班上宣讀時該會是怎樣的心情? 那當然是“愉快”啦！

八、注意語法規則
考查考生語法知識的運用能力。近年來完形填空題中單純考查語法知識的題一般不考，只是偶爾有個別考題。請看下面全國卷中的一個小題：
"Can I? I don't think I can,"Tracy said with a laugh. "But l do have ___46___ when things come to me for no reason."
46. A. events B. chances C. feelings D. moments
【分析】由后面的when引導的定語從句可知，前面的先行詞應是表時間的詞，所以選moments。
