單項選擇是一種容量大、考查面廣的題型。它可集中考查詞法、句法、語法知識。因此在各級各類考試中，單項選擇是必不可少的題型。

　　要做好單項選擇題，首先必須熟練掌握句型、固定搭配、習(xí)慣用法、語法等方面的基礎(chǔ)知識。還應(yīng)該了解一些解題技巧，提高解題的綜合能力。

　　解答單項選擇題，一般要經(jīng)過四個階段 :閱讀審題--觀察分析--選擇判斷--復(fù)查驗證。

　　1. 閱讀審題 :首先要默讀試題中的英語句子，了解空格在句中所處的位置，句子缺少什么成份，初步確定一個答案的范圍。根據(jù)備選答案二者結(jié)合起來就會大致明白考查什么。例如 :

　　He goes to work by bus .

　　A. So do I B. I so do C. I do so D. So am I

　　默讀此題后，就不難知道，此題缺少的是一個跟前句有關(guān)的一個句子;再根據(jù)選項就會清楚此題是考查副詞"so"一詞的用法(前邊的情況也適于另一個人或物)，只能選A。

　　2. 觀察分析 :這是一個快速而又嚴(yán)密的思維過程。要求將試題中所提供的條件和備選答案的情況結(jié)合起來去分析、推理、排除那些明顯不符合試題，甚至本身就有錯的各選項目，再在剩余的備選中比較分析。例如 :

　　Wang Fang is young，but she plays ping-pong her mother.

　　A. as good as B. as well as

　　C. as better as D. as best as

　　根據(jù)觀察分析就會清楚，C、D兩項本身就不能成立，應(yīng)先排除，只能在A、B兩項中選。

　　3. 選擇判斷 :在分析句子和備選答案的基礎(chǔ)上，經(jīng)過反復(fù)驗證，選出一個使句子語法正確、語意通順，附合邏輯道理的答案。

　　就上例所示，先排除了C、D，就在A、B兩者中選。因句中"play"為一個行為動詞，需用一個副詞來修飾，故應(yīng)選擇B。

　　4. 復(fù)查驗證 :將所選答案放在句中空格處再默讀全句。首先看是否順口，再在讀法、意思和邏輯關(guān)系上推敲一下，完全符合條件則可放心。

　　這就是做單項選擇題的總過程。其次，事實上大多數(shù)同學(xué)在許多情況下靠語感選擇答案，所謂語感就是平時知識的積累，是技巧的熟練，就是讀來順口、有把握。特別是情景反應(yīng)式選擇題運用此法效果更佳。例如 :

　　1)-"Happy New Year!"

　　-" ".

　　A. Happy New Year, too B. Thank you very much

　　C. You‘re right D. The same to you

　　根據(jù)平時練習(xí)的情景對話，一讀就會感到D是正確的。

　　2)-"Mum，can I watch TV now?"

　　-No，you must finish your homework first.

　　A. doing B. do C. to do D. done

　　根據(jù)我們平時已學(xué)的"finish"一詞的語法知識"finish doing sth. "一讀就會發(fā)現(xiàn)，空白處只有填"doing"才是正確的，讀來順口，就會馬上確定A。

　　【經(jīng)典范例引路】

　　例1 of the twins passed the exam because they worked hard at their lessons.

　　A. Every B. Neither C. None D. Both

　　簡析 :此題選D。B、C兩項是否定含義的詞，在句中邏輯上說不通。另外注意neither強調(diào)"兩者都不"，none強調(diào)三者以上的"都不"。A項的 every只能作定語，不能作主語、表語或賓語。

　　例2 the window. What‘s happening there?

　　A. Look off B. Look over C. Look out of D. Look for

　　簡析 :此題選C。此題考查帶look的短評動詞的用法。根據(jù)第二個句子問外面發(fā)生了什么事，可推知第一句是讓"往窗外看"，故用look out of。look over是指醫(yī)生"檢查"病人，look for是"尋找"，A項短語不正確。

　　例3 bad weather we are having !We‘ve never had rainy days.

　　A. What a;such B. How;so C. What;such D. What;so

　　簡析 :此題選C。第一個句子是感嘆句，中心詞是名詞 weather，故應(yīng)填 what，而非 how，又因 weather是不可數(shù)名詞，所以 what后面不能加a。第二個句子中的 days是名詞，故應(yīng)填such，而非so(so修飾形容詞或副詞)。
