　　首先看第47题。第47小题的空格的前一句最后一个名词为”names”, 再下一句中有一个动词关键词“called”，因此我们可以猜出这道题是讲名字或起名字的，我们在看选项。只有选项B中涉及到单词“name”,那么我们 便可以想到这句应该也跟名字有关，因此我们选择答案B。

　　我们在看第48小题。这道题空格的前一句和后一句中均出项了“four”这个单词，因此我们很容易想到这道题是关于举例子或列举的题。我们再看选项，选项D中正好列举出了4个不同的地方名，因此我们很容易选择D选项作为该题的答案。

　　很多补全短文的题目均可以用查找上下句的关键词的方法进行快速解答，在做这种题目时一定要注意关键词的查找范围不应太大，一般的查找范围是空格 的前一句和后一句。在查找关键词时，要看空格前后句有没有重复出现的词，一般重复出现的词就是寻找答案时所要定位的单词。这种题目只要掌握一定的技巧，并 不很难，但是需要多加练习，才能熟能生巧。贵州人事考试网
