八年级英语上册：【短文填空】解题3大技巧

1. 寻“宝”推理法

寻“宝”推理法就是从上下文中找到相关的“宝”（信息点），通过逻辑推理，从而填出与原句意思相符单词的方法。如：

【典例】 It was a fine day last Sunday. John went to Tianlong supermarket to do some  （1）   alone. Because it was a little far away from his home, he   （2）   his car there. Soon he got there and found room for his car. He parked his car and went into the  （3）   to buy the things he needed. Twenty minutes later, he finished shopping. He was very happy he could   （4）   shopping in less than half an hour. At last he took the things slowly back to the car park. What a good day he had!

【分析】：

（1）A. 上下寻宝：从下文（倒数第二行）可寻到“宝”：“he could finish shopping in less...”。B． 判定答案：把“宝”代入句子中，意思完整，故确定答案填shopping。C． 检查复核：shopping此处是不可数名词，不用+s。

（2）A. 上下寻宝：从下文（本空的后一句）可寻到“宝”：“Soon he got …for his car”。B. 判定答案：经过逻辑推理，只有开车去超市，才要找停车位，故确定答案填drive。C. 检查复核：drive是动词。上半句动词用was为过去时，所以本空也要用过去时“drove”。
