點評 七選五題型看似簡單,實際上有時完全作對并不容易,需要方法和分析能力及足夠的耐力,有必要進行專門練習.首先,快速瀏覽一遍七個備選答案,先確定哪個選項適合放在文章的什么位置.其次,快速瀏覽文章,確定文章體裁,抓住文章結構,分析篇章結構,找出各段的主題句或主旨大意.其三,注意各選項中出現(xiàn)的句子銜接手段,尋找句中銜接標志詞,七選五備選答案中有兩個多余的選項,會對文章中兩個空的選擇構成干擾,這時要特別細致地比對相似選項.最后,用代入法,檢查答案是否合理,將所有選擇答案放回空白處,通讀全文,檢查文章內(nèi)容是否語義連貫合理、緊扣主題,語篇結構是否通順連貫、具有一致性、合乎邏輯,寫作思路是否清晰明了,格式以及用語是否恰當貼切,從而判斷選擇的答案是否正確.
