点评 非等距离挖空的命题方式是完形填空的最大特色.短文首句不挖空,以便为考生理解全文留下足够信息,命题者根据考查目的进行挖空,造成信息链中断,这就要求考生依据上下文的文意捕捉到空白处的缺词.从近几年高考完形填空题看,纯语法知识几乎不考,主要考查考生灵活运用所学词汇的能力,尤其是以考查实词或信息词为主,着重考查考生对文章的内在逻辑和整体把握能力.因此,把握句间和段落之间的内在逻辑关系,通过上下文暗示,对篇章、段落或句意的整体把握;再则,干扰项的设置与语法结构无甚关系,重在文意干扰.因此,把握文意和具体语境,通过对词义的辨析,是解完形填空的最好手段.

Acquisition of new words from authentic L2reading texts by means of strategies such as contextual deduction(演绎) is also not a (55)Afor a number of reasons.There appears to be no (56)Dto intentional learning of a great many new words in a relatively short period of time.The words to be learned may be (57)Bin isolation or in context.Presentation in bilingual(双语的) word lists seems an (58)Cshortcut because it takes less time than contextual presentation and yields excellent short term results.Long term memory,(59)D,is often disappointing so contextual presentation seems advisable.
Any suggestions on how to use this in educational contexts should be based on a systematic (60)B of the two most important aspects of the L2word learning problem,this is to say,selecting the relevant vocabulary (which and how many words) and creating the best conditions for the acquisition process.This article sets out to (61)Aa computer assisted word acquisition programme(CAVOCA) which tries to do exactly this:the programme operationalises current theoretical thinking about word acquisition,and its (62)D are based on a systematic list of the vocabulary relevant for the target group.To (63)Bits frequency,the programme was (64)C in a number of experimental settings with a paired associated method of learning new words.The experimental results suggest that an approach combining the two methods is most advisable.
