大学英语四级完型填空答题步骤及技巧 答题步骤 首先,我们来看完型填空的解题步骤 （一）通读全文，了解文章大意 阅读理解是做Cloze的基础, 因此应该在对全文有了较全面的了解的基础上, 再开始做选择题, 切忌为了节约时间, 在未掌握大意的基础上“拿起来就做, 见空就填, 边填边理解”.那样做的结果, 不仅不能够节约时间, 而且会因为只考虑到所填的词在短语或句子内是否可行而忽略了整篇文章的连贯和结构, 造成选择错误. 因此,速读全文要一气呵成，尽管有空格、 生词或不明白的地方，仍要快速读下去。读时要注意找出关键词、中心词，划出某些代表 人物和情节的词，以便于形成思路。 当然, 由于考试时间有限，只能用略读法(skimming)将全文快速浏览一遍，明确文章的主题、 体裁。尤其要认真阅读全文的第一句，因为第一句都是一个没有空格的完整的句子，对后 文的重要提示。 （二）抓住首尾句 在阅读时要特别注意文章的第一句和最后一句，因为它们通常是文章的主题句，是全文的 中心所在。从第一句中可以窥见作者的写作目的，把握作者的写作思路以及文章将要叙述 的内容。而最后一句是作者对文章内容的归纳总结，表明作者的观点和态度，有利于加强 考生对文章的理解。 （三）联系上下文，进行逻辑推理 完形填空中有些空格的四个选项从词汇搭配、语法和单句的角度考虑均行得通。但由于文 章是一个完整的统一体，词、句、段三者存在着内在逻辑关系，此时，需要在上下文中寻 找有关的提示或暗示，对文章的情节进行逻辑分析，抓住主要语言信息的词语，理顺句与 句之间的关系，确定合理的答案。 （四）逐题选择答案 浏览全文之后，开始进入逐题做答阶段，运用查读法(Scanning)，对所有选择项从语法、 搭配和语篇等方面进行反复推敲，从而选出最佳答案。做题原则是瞻前顾后，灵活答题。“瞻前顾后”，即先读所填词的句子，回顾上一句，兼顾下一句。如果一句中有两个空白待 填，在初定答案时要“双管齐下”，在两处同时试填，然后通读全句，确定答案。答题方法：1）择优法：根据文章及结构边读边填，如果能够立刻判定最佳答案的，不必再去逐个考证

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions . Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .
