　　完型填空解题技巧(一)

　　通读全文，了解短文的主要内容。完形填空题虽然篇幅不长，但毕竟是一篇完整的文章。答题时，切忌急于按照顺序逐个做答。应该先将文章快速读个一两遍，从整体上弄清楚文章的主要内容。

　　重视首句，注意尾句。首句往往是文章的体裁、内容、背景的窗口，尾句在文章中往往起画龙点睛的作用。我们可以从首句中看出文章的基本事态，这对后面有关时态方面的选择具有重要的参考价值。而尾句通常是文章的结论，作者的观点、看法、态度、动机等可能体现其中。因此，可以把首尾两句作为解题的重要依据。

　　Passage 1

　　阅读理解

　　Every year seven thousand people died in the car accidents in Great Britain. And between one and two hundred thousand people are hurt.

　　There are rules to make the roads safe, but people do not always obey(遵守) the rules.① They are careless. If everybody obeys the rules, the road will be much safer. How can we make the roads safer?

　　Remember this rule. In Great Britain traffic keeps to the left. Cars, buses and bikes must all keep to the left side of the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right.

　　Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look right and left. Then, if you are sure that the road is clear, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children or very old people, help them to cross the road. We must teach our children to cross the road safely. We must always give them a good example. Small children must not play in the street.
