Do you know what is special about November and June in the UK? They are, possibly, the only two months with no school holidays. A newspaper 46 did a survey among a group of students. In the survey, 68 percent of the students said。
a /an/the +n. , adj.+ n. , vt. +n. 即空格处前面为冠词、形容词或者及物动词的，空格处应填入名词；n. v. 即空格处后面是动词的，空格处应填入该动词的主语(名词)；prep. +n. 即空格处前面是介词的，空格处充当介词宾语，用填入一个名词或动名词。

考点22 易错题型（三）五选四五选四的考题特点：1. 词汇方面注重对于词汇和搭配的考察。
2. 语法方面考察词性之间关系和句子结构分析能力。
3. 逻辑方面考察上下文联系考向一：五选四解题步骤STEP 1 详读选项，词分类两篇文章选项中的10个词是考查的关键，考生应该详细的理解这10个单词。
熟悉的单词标明词性和词义，不熟悉的单词或者不认识的单词只需标明词性，然后根据名词、动词、形容词、副词四大类按规律排列在试卷上。
这样就缩小了选择的范围，降低了试题的难度。
注意：1. 动词分为谓语动词和非谓语动词。
非谓语动词包括：动词不定式、动名词、现在分词和过去分词。
过去分词有两种可能性(形容词和动词的过去分词), 因此要根据动词的形式结合文章进行相应的时态或者语态的判断。
2. 不认识的词要看后缀。
构词法中, 前缀区分意思, 后缀区分词性。
所以看词尾往往能大致分出词性。
词性无法确定的, 暂时搁置。
3. 做出相应的标记。
在英文中有的单词不只有一个词性，比如大家常见的play/visit/study基友名词词性也有动词词性。
STEP 2 略读全文，定中心考生拿到题目以后，由于考查考生对篇章的理解，应该略读整篇文章，确定文章的中心或主要说明的问题。
要抓住文章首句，迅速找到文章的主题词或主题。
和完型填空一样，一般文章第一句不设空格，以便让考生知道本文的相关主题词或主题。
在此，建议大家使用略读的方法，以快速掌握文章大意。
STEP 3 瞻前顾后，灵活选词性分类之后，回到原文中，根据原文中空格的前后单词或者前后语句确定所要填的词性，然后从分类好的单词中选择出词性、意思、语法都符合要求的最佳选项。
首先，根据语法知识确认可以被填入此空的词性，然后按第一步中标注出的词性进行筛选，最后将备选词逐个代入空中细读句意，考虑上下问逻辑关系做出选择。
STEP 4 复核检查，定结果篇章词汇理解题目类似于完型填空，这需要考生不仅要迅速的确定答案，还要在确定答案之后迅速的复查。
