【名师点拨】

1.在做完形填空时一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s more等词汇、固定结构的运用。它们连接了上下文，起着承上起下的作用。像but（但是）、however（然而），表示转折，这说明前后的内容相反或相对。把握住这一点，做起题来就会得心应手。比如45小题D考查连词。A. so所以；B. or或者；C. and和； D. but但是。句意：她的写作不是完美的但是她很努力。故选D。

2.关于几个重点词

（1）a lack of 缺乏（名词）；be lacking in 缺少---（不及物动词）；lack patience缺乏耐心（及物动词）。

（2）weaknesses and strengths优势和劣势
