利用固定搭配解題
完形填空題中對詞彙知識的考查，主要體現在習慣用法和同義詞、近義詞的辨析兩方面。習慣用法是英語中某種固定的結構形態，即所謂的「習語」，不能隨意改動。所以，考生平時應掌握好習慣用法。對詞義辨析題的考查有加大力度的趨勢。要做好這類題，需要有較大的詞彙量和詞語搭配能力、詞語辨析能力，特別是在特定的語境中能靈活運用的能力。如：
They couldn』t read or write. They didn』t like to work and they never ___12___ baths.
12. A. took B. washed C. ran D. covered
【解析】本題考查的是固定搭配take a bath，意為「洗澡」。
I did very badly at school. My headmaster thought I was useless and when I was 14 he said, 「You』re never going to be ___2___ but a failure.」
2. A. anything B. something C. everything D. nothing
【解析】本題考查習語anything but，意為「決不」「根本不」，即校長認為我肯定是一個失敗的人。
