夹叙夹议完形解题指导：

技巧一：关注文章首句，领会大意。通过理解文章的首句，我们可以明确短文话题，了解篇章结构，预测全文内容。通过理解段落的首句，也可明确每段的大意。

技巧二：根据前后语境，上下联系。有时只需从空格所在句子的上文或下文考虑；有时需要从空格所在句子的前后2-3句考虑；还有的可能要从整个段落或整篇文章给予考虑，才可选出正确选项。比如第37题：考查句意理解。从后面的句子to see all the different kinds of people who passed by 看到运动员通过应该是兴奋的。故选A。比如第45题：考查句意理解。从前面的描写：He was running his race and I was running mine.说明两人在能力、经验上是不同的。故选D。上下文提供的信息对应关系以及词语的重复使用，对解答完形填空也非常有用。对于文中生词的处理，有的可以通过句法分析判断词性，根据上下文猜测其大意；对不影响文章理解和解题的生词可以跳过不管。

技巧三：根据词语辨析，挑选答案。理解句子含义，判断句义关系，从词汇的意义、用法和搭配考虑，把握整体意思，寻找答题线索。比如第50题：slightly轻微地，hardly几乎不， clearly清楚地，properly合理地，文章最后一段也提到With the proper preparation and training, 只有D 符合。故选D。比如第36题：考查动词短语。bring out产生，pass out分配；分发take out拿出， pick out 挑选出，根据上下文，作者是给运动员分配水的。故选B。
