技巧一

完型在"填空"的時候，切忌用中文的"搭配"去感覺，也就是所謂三大出題伎倆之一的"中文代入"。要思考英語的搭配，不要死記，要理解和搜集。

技巧二

首段首句不出題，是主旨句（2001年除外），除首句外基本每句話都要出題，首段首句沒有讀懂就不要做下去；

技巧三

考研完型填空里面名詞、動詞、形容詞，這些實詞的考點往往被給出明確的線索，存在于改填空的前后，對該填空進行前后聯(lián)系(名詞前面adj。后面從句;形容詞前面adv。后面n.;動詞前面主語后面賓語等等)指示，考生如果能夠判斷出前后的關鍵而又是少量的信息，可以保證題目做對

技巧四

如出現(xiàn)陌生的選項詞匯，而我們又不認識的時候，這里注意，蒙也有技巧，一般來說選擇相對簡單的詞匯，不要選擇偏的怪的詞匯。

技巧五

答案分布規(guī)律： 每篇完形填空中A、B、C、D作為正確選項的個數(shù)各在4—6個之間；A作為正確選項的個數(shù)最多；沒有連續(xù)三個答案都一樣的情況，連續(xù)兩個答案都一樣的情況為0—3個； 在五個一組的答案中，最少要出現(xiàn)三個字母作為正確的選項；

技巧六

在四個選項中，有兩個實詞互為同義詞時，答案往往在其中； 在四個選項中，有兩個虛詞互為同義詞時，答案往往都不選；當四個選項有一個共同意義時，該意義往往不能入選，要看選項的特殊含義
