5) … Still others faced the storm bravely, walking miles to get to work.

　　I __40__ to be one of people on the way to work that morning. I went from subway line to subway line only to find that most __41__ had stopped. After making my way through crowds of people, I finally found a subway line that was __43__....

　　40. A. used B. promised C. deserved D. happened

　　41. A. practice B. routine C. process D. service

　　…

　　43. A. operating B. cycling C. turning D. rushing

　　【40. D項(xiàng)。從前面一句話和本句中one of people可知，作者當(dāng)天上午碰巧也是去上班的人之一;41. D項(xiàng)。從上下文可知，由于風(fēng)暴大部分地鐵線路停運(yùn)，所以唯有service符合題意;43. A項(xiàng)。從上下文的語境中我們可知道作者最后找到有一條地鐵線還在營業(yè)，operating本身含有“營業(yè)的”意思，相當(dāng)于be on service?！?/p>

　　6) After the birth of my second child, I got a job at a restaurant. Having worked with an experienced __36__ for a few days, I was __37__ to wait tables on my own. All went __38__ that first week

　　36. A. manager B. assistant C. cook D. waitress

　　37. A. promised B. invited C. allowed D. advised

　　38. A. well B. quickly C. safely D. wrong

　　【36. D項(xiàng)。根據(jù)下文“I was allowed to wait tables on my own”可以判斷，作者是和有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的女侍者一起工作了幾天;37. C項(xiàng)。從上下文可知，幾天后作者被允許單獨(dú)做餐飲招待服務(wù)了;38. A項(xiàng)。有下文可以判斷出，她的第一周工作非常順手，沒出意外?！?/p>

　　應(yīng)試技巧二：語法結(jié)構(gòu)法: 高考完形填空題基本都是在語境中考查考生對(duì)語法知識(shí)的掌握程度，單純考查這類題很少。而在完形填空題中考察語法項(xiàng)目的主要是動(dòng)詞的各種時(shí)態(tài)、語態(tài)和語氣、謂語和非謂語形式等。所以這類題需要考生有較為扎實(shí)的語法基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)，能夠從句式的結(jié)構(gòu)上辨別出須填相關(guān)的關(guān)聯(lián)詞、連詞、副詞、形容詞或相應(yīng)的動(dòng)詞，當(dāng)然還要考慮到主謂一致的關(guān)系等語法知識(shí)要點(diǎn)。不過，切記解答這類題，必須是任何空格的語法正確的前提下，再考慮其他方面因素。

　　7) When it was 5:00pm, I was ready to go home. I was about to turn off my computer __49__ I received an email from Garth, my Director.

　　A. while B. when C. where D. after

　　【49. B項(xiàng)，這兒when的意思是just at the moment， 與前面的when意思不一樣，A項(xiàng)的while無此意，D項(xiàng)的after不符合行為交互邏輯，C項(xiàng)完全是錯(cuò)誤的?！?/p>

　　8) “I have been a soloist for over ten years. __53__ the doctor thought I was totally deaf, it didn’t __54__ that my passion couldn’t be realized.

　　53. A. However B. Although C. When D. Since

　　54. A. mean B. seem C. conclude D. say

　　【53. B項(xiàng)，由第二段的內(nèi)容以及本句的句意“盡管醫(yī)生認(rèn)為我已經(jīng)全聾了，但是這并不意味著我的熱情會(huì)消失。”，故此處應(yīng)為讓步狀語從句;54. A項(xiàng)，由句意可知?！?
