7、关联逻辑法。通读全文可知，本文是“总分”结构。由第二段中的“.one of the most important things you can do as a good neighbor is to keep.”以及第三段的Second可知，本题选G，也就是本文的主题句。32答案F解析解本题可用词汇锁定法。该空格前面的neat，clean，in good repair以及空格后面的in great shape都与F项的fresh and inviting相吻合。33答案E解析解本题可用关联逻辑法。空格前提到，散步时随身带个小垃圾袋；空格后提到，这个小小的举动会让你的邻居知道你关心这个区域。因此

8、此处要填E项“如果你碰到从路过的车里扔出的废纸，把它捡起来”。34答案B解析解本题可用词汇锁定法。由本段中的“you are there to help in any way”可知，选B项“一个好邻居也是一个在小的方面乐于助人的人”。35答案C解析解本题可用关联逻辑法。空后的“respecting others，taking care of what belongs to you，taking pride in the appearance of neighborhood in general”都是一些体贴的行为，故C项符合语境。一、题型解读段中设空即主题句的展开句。尤其注意分析空前后的逻辑关

9、系和行文逻辑及内容的连贯性，注意各句间的衔接手段。其特点主要以转折手法引出主题句，或者是用来承上启下的过渡句，也可能是补充前文具体的事实、事例和说明。二、解题技巧1根据并列或递进关系解题并列或递进关系主要指行文中后句对前句是一种顺承逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间有first(第一)，second(第二)，third(第三)；firstly(第一，首先)，secondly(第二，其次)，thirdly(第三)；first(首先) ，next(其次)，then(那么，然后)；in the first place(第一，首先)，for another(其次)；to begin with(首先，第一

10、)，to conclude(最后)等连接词或词组，则表明前后两句是逻辑上的并列关系，空格处很有可能是个并列的句子。如果空格前后两句之间有also(也，而且)，further(进一步地，而且)，furthermore(而且，此外)，likewise(同样地，也)，similarly(相同地，类似地)，moreover(而且，此外)，in addition(另外)，whats more(更重要的是)，not only.but also(不但而且)等连接词或词组，则表明前后两句是逻辑上的递进关系，空格处很有可能是个递进的句子。2根据转折或让步关系解题转折或让步关系主要指行文中后句对前句构成逆转逻辑关

11、系。如果空格前后两句话之间有however(然而)，nevertheless(然而，不过)，still(还，仍然)，though(可是，不过，然而)，yet(然而)，on the contrary(正相反)，in contrast(与此相反，相比之下)，in comparison(比较起来，与比较)，by comparison(相比之下)等连接词，则表明前后两句话是逻辑上的逆转，空格处很有可能表示转折或让步关系。3根据因果关系解题如果前后的句子之间出现as a result(结果)，thus/therefore(因此)，so/such.that(如此以至于)等标志性词语，表明前后句有着因果关系

12、。4根据解释例证关系解题前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式具有多样性，思维过程基本是归纳(从例子到观点)和演绎(从观点到例子)。A(2018河北衡水中学八模)Do you have the experience of digging out your suitcase，deciding what to bring and being afraid that youve forgotten something？ 1 Hope they can transform the way you pack.Keep a Basket HandyDo you wait until the l
