掌握高效的解题方法将达到事半功倍的效果。方法的学习是学习中最重要的学习。破解英语单项填空题有以下妙法可以一试： 1. 还原法还原题干中颠倒的语序，使句子结构明朗，从而作出正确选择。As a student, every minute should be made full use _____ hard at our lessons.A. of workingB. of to work C. of work D. of being worked 解析：把题干还原为主动结构：As a student, we should make full use of every minute to work hard at our lessons. 由此可见，动词不定式 to work hard at our lessons 为目的状语。故最佳答案为 B。Ｉhave always been honest and direct, and it doesn’t matter ______ I’m talking to. and sometimes they misunderstand me, so I may need to change.A. who is it B. who it is C. it is who D. it is whom解析：题干 matter 之后为宾语从句，而且含有强调结构。把宾语从句还原：I’m talking to whom, 然后再对 whom 进行强调，Whom is it that I’m talking to，再变为陈述语序，即为答案 D。2. 补全法根据题意，把题干中省略的部分补充上，使句子结构完整、语境清楚，从而正确把握命题人的意图。Last Sunday we failed to go to see the movie Hero _______ because the tickets had been sold out.A. as planned B. as planning C. as to be planned D. as being planed解析：状语从句通常可省略，保留“连词 + 分词”。as planned = as it had been planned = as we had planned，故最佳答案为 A。—You look upset. What are you worried about?—_________ he can return the book tome in time.A. That B. Whether C. When D. Where解析：答语为 about 所带的宾语从句，完整的句子为：I‘m worried about whether he can return the book to me in time. 显然答案为 B。3. 简化法把题干中的插入语部分去掉，使句子结构简练，解题也就更容易了。It is the ability to do the job _______matters not where you come from or what you are. (全国卷)A. one B. thatC. what D. it解析：去掉题干中的 not where you come from or what you are，题干即为是一个简单句：The ability to do the job matters. 把主语 The ability 放在强调结构中，即变为题干。显然最佳答案为 B。When he grew up, mother gave him a gold ring. And he was supposed to give it to ______ he thought he loved most.A. whoever B. whomever C. any girl D. anyone who解析：去掉题干中插入语 he thought, 可知从空白处起为名词性从句，作 to 的宾语。因 loved 缺少宾语，选 whomever，相当于 anyone whom，故最佳答案为 B。[1][2][3]下一页 说明:引用此文请注明出处,并请保留该文章链接地址,谢谢~~4. 逆向思维法解题时要注意克服思维定势的影响。换另一个角度思考问题，才能突破固定的思维模式，找到答案。The cave _____ dark, they hade to made some candles ______ light.A. was; given B. was; being givenC. being; to give D. being; given解析：由于两个分句之间为逗号，第 1 空不能填 was，而应填 being，构成了“名词 + 现在分词”的独立结构；第 2 空不是 make sb do sth 结构，而填 to give，为动词不定式作目的状语。故最佳答案为 C。—Which do you enjoy _____ your weekend, fishing or hiking?—I prefer fishing.A. spending B. to spend C. being spent D spent解析：enjoy doing 为考生所熟悉的句型，而题干中 enjoy 的宾语是疑问词 Which，因此需用动词不定式 to spend 作目的状语。故最佳答案为 B。5. 关键词提示法关键词在解题时的作用不容忽视，它们往往是解题的重要线索。I failed in the final examination last term and only then _____the importance of studies.A. I realizedB. I had realized C. had I realizedD. did I realize解析：关键词 only then 位于第 2 个分句之首，因此需用倒装句。故最佳答案为 D。Stand on the top of the hill, ___________ you’ll have a clear picture of the park.A. orB. while C. but D. and解析：句首的祈使句和第 2 个分句中的you’ll是关键词，暗示本题的题干为“祈使句 + and / or + 一般将来时的并列句”。因前后句之间为因果关系，故最佳答案为 D。6. 语境突破法通过阅读题干的对话部分，即可准确把握交际语境，快速解题。—I think you should phone Jenny and say sorry to her. —_______. It was her fault. (全国卷)A. No way B. Not possible C. No chance D. Not at all 解析：根据语境，说话人坚决不同意向 Jen
