“語法填空”從樣題的命題形式來看，“語法填空”題仍屬于國外一直使用的一種完形填空題，在國內(nèi)的傳統(tǒng)練習(xí)和測試中也很常見。一般認為，這種不提供選擇項的“語法填空”題比這些年來高考采用的提供選擇項的完形填空題的難度略大。但也有人認為，這種無選擇項“語法填空”題由于沒有干擾項反倒有利于考生更好地發(fā)揮其英語水平。
解“語法填空”題的一般步驟是：
一、瀏覽全文 把握語篇
瀏覽全文的目的是把握其大意，為下一步“填空”做好“語義”上的準備，因為“語義”決定著空白處應(yīng)填一個什么意思的詞語并采用什么樣的語法形式。在通讀全文的過程中，為較好地把握其大意，很有必要弄清該文的體裁、題材（語題）、中心思想、寫作主線、段落大意、段落層次等。這些有利于考生真正讀懂全文大意，也有利于在“填空”時進行必要的邏輯推理。
二、邊讀邊填 先易后難
在通讀全文，基本了解文章大意之后，就可以動手填空了。填空的過程是一個判斷空白處應(yīng)填詞語的“語義”（已給出詞語的除外）和正確的語法“形式”的思維過程。遇到一時想不起來的空，先跳過去，等檢查時再仔細對付，不要用太多的時間停留在一個單詞上。
三、驗證復(fù)查 清除難點
有時間的話，進行復(fù)查是必要的。復(fù)查的方法是：將所有答案“填進”短文并進行通讀，以最后確定答案。
另外，一題多解也是此種題型常遇到的問題之一。
