首字母填空
根据首字母填空是考查词汇综合运用能力的一种较难的题型。它的特点是将一篇文章中若干个词“掏空”,留下该词的首字母,它既作为提示又作为限制,让我们根据短文的意思把单词拼写完整。
考生需通读全文,在字里行间捕捉信息,先易后难,既要理清逻辑,又要综合考虑。根据首字母填空考查范围极广,可以是英语知识的方方面面,还可能涉及其他学科,它要求考生在充分理解短文的基础上将单词拼写出来,并且单词形式合理,符合语法规范,符合短文需要。
根据首字母填空的解题技巧如下:
(1) 看第一句动词的时态,确定本文的基本时态;
(2) 通读全文;
(3) 做题:看前后文确定词性,注意名词单复数、动词时态以及单词拼写;
(4)检查所填单词是否符合文意。
第一步:通读全文,把握文章大意,标注空格前后的关键词。(见文中加底纹处)
第二步:结合语境,试填空格。根据结构、意义以及首字母提示确定要填的词。
根据短文内容及所给首字母提示写出所缺单词,使短文意思完整,每空一词。

again. If your first name sounds strange and you can't c 52 it,you can do as the following s 53 .Try using a middle name if it's not hard to pronounce. If you don't have a middle name,you can use a nickname(绰号).And when you get to the interview,you can e 54 that you often use a nickname because people find your r 55 name difficult to pronounce.
nickname 提示用real 修饰 name
Your name may mean more than you think.
第三步:查缺补漏,对于还未填出的题,综合全文推断出答案。
第二步中未填出的题
52.下文语境 替换名字→原因:不能改名字→change
53.下文语境 替换名字→方法:提出建议→suggestions
54.结合语境,面试时向别人解释常用绰号→explain
第四步:复读全文,检查答案。
从时态、语态、逻辑关系以及单词拼写等方面进行复查,最后确定答案。
第五步:核对答案,反思错题。

由空格前的短语 look up 可知,此处是想说明要查阅什么东西,又由上文可知,是要在其中查阅英文名字,所以应为“字典,词典”,故填 dictionary.
47.错因分析:易错填when.忽略了下文中的关键词or.
