完形填空题与单项选择题不同，它给出的是一篇意思较为完整的短文。做该题型试题时，首先应跳过空格通读全文，以全文为背景，联系句子的上下文进行推理和判断，从4个选项中选出一项进行试填。考生可以从词义用法、固定搭配、逻辑推理和上下文的联系等方面去考虑。最后应再把全文通览一遍，细心检查所选答案能否使短文上下连贯，前后呼应，词句通顺，使短文意思完整。检查时还应从语法、惯用法、逻辑推理和事情发生的情节等方面进行考虑，以达到准确无误之目的。第3小题是考查连词辨析，通过上下语境判断，前后句是因果关系，故答案选D；第7小题是考查名词词义辨析，要结合上下文做出准确判断，结合下文“Several weeks later, I received a letter from the woman.”作者收到了那位中年妇女的来信，判断她所要了我的地址，故答案为D。
