从短文的词汇数量上来看，一篇短文填空的词汇量一般在180~230个左右。
从考查的词汇而言，主要是大纲要求的四会词语（即重点词汇），不要求掌握的词汇、一般词汇，通
常不作为考查的对象。 三、考点的设置
短文填空的考点设置，主要以名词、动词、形容词副词、介词、连词为主要考查对象
在短文的布局上遵循首句、末句不设空，不逐句设空的原则，每段设置2~3个空； 在设空的同时，注意前后暗示和上下文相互暗示的原则。
答题指导
做短文填空试题，考生需要具备正确拼写所学单词的能力，具有一定的语法基础知识，掌握一定的阅读方法，这样做起题才得心应手。下面介绍一些方法供大家在答题时运用。 一、观察
观察方框中所给的词汇，和所给考题的材料取向。 二、归类
对方框中所给的词汇进行词性分类。
熟悉英语常见实词变化形式和常见语法要点，尤其弄清楚它们在句中分别充当何种句子成分。 三、发散
对各词进行发散性思维，构建“知识树”，初步了解词义。 1.掌握词类转换的基本知识和词形变化规则，尤其是不规则变化 例如：care—careful—carefully； child—children—children’s； far—farther—farthest。
2.词汇的掌握要做到音、形、义相结合，即：词义清晰、拼写准确、灵活运用 例如：看到所给的词是名词，则马上要想到其单复数、名词所有格等问题。 四、通读
跳过空格，通读全文，了解大意。 从整体入手了解内容大意，尤其关注文章首尾句，以便迅速抓住文章主旨，猜测作者的意图、观点；
在明确了主要信息之后，结合细节进行分析、推理、归纳，把握住文章的中心； 从而确定用什么样的词汇来补充缺失的信息最佳。
五、关键
做好句法分析，找出空前空后的关键词。
通过句法分析弄清要填的词在句中充当的成分，是主语、谓语还是宾语等。 如果是充当主语、宾语或表语，则大多需填名词或代词。
如果是作谓语的则应填动词。定语的多为形容词，状语的多为副词等等。 （即：根据句意，确定词性；根据结构，确定词形。） 六、检查
带入原文，复读检查。

选词填空词性判断法 all any behave difference drink eat enjoy fine other real surprise these Once there was a teacher who took all his students for tea. What made the students 1_ was that all the cups on the table were 2 . Each of them took a cup and started 3 their own tea, looking at the 4 cups.
The teacher said; \"Do you notice your 5 ? You are all looking at each other's tea cups and 6 of you even envy (羡慕) the 7 cups of others.\" Then he went on: \"I put the different cups here on purpose! Life is like 8 tea. You all have the same thing in your cups— tea. And yet you can't 9 enjoy it in your envy of another's cup. You forget 10 your own life when you envy someone else's life. So now, taste your own tea! Does it matter from which cup it comes from?\" 分析：
第一空可能是动词或adj.。（make sb do sth.和make+O+OC）但是选项中仅有的五个动词behave，drink，eat，enjoy，surprise填进去意义都不通顺，考虑形容词的话，很容易就能一次性确定为surprised.
第二空应为adj.或者过去分词。（be +adj或be done）;而动词意义上均说不通，只能是形容词。不能确定。
第三空应为doing形式。（start doing sth.）可以一次性确定为drinking。 第四空应为adj.。不能确定。
第五空应为n.所有选项中只有difference是n，能变为只有behave（behavior）。因此可以一次性确定为behavior。
第六空应为pron.（该句谓语是动词envy,谓语之前的____ of you为主语），因此此处可以填all或some，但是考虑到前一句用all，后一句用even(甚至)，则一次性确定为some。 第七空应为adj.。不能确定。
第八空应为adj.或doing，构成like doing sth结构。（like：像，是介词prep），adj可以选fine和these，动词可以选drinking，但是考虑到前面只能用drinking，则此处确定为this。其实如果考虑到后面一句You all have the same thing in your cups— tea，此处只能用名词而不能用drinking tea这种意义。
第九空为adv.。（enjoy是动词，动词前为副词。）可以一次性确定为really。
第十空应为动词。（forget to do sth.）behave，drink，eat，enjoy，surprise五个动词中只有enjoy可以接宾语your own life。因此可以一次性确定为enjoy。 为什么三处填形容词的地方难以确定呢？
all，any，difference，fine，other，real，surprise，these都可以作为形容词。但是合适的形容词只有difference，fine，other三个，无疑这三个都要被分别填进去，我们要做的就是如何安排这三个形容词。
从What made the students surprised 来看，令人惊讶的应该是：所有杯子都是不同的。从常理来看，如果所有被子都fine，不应该令人感到惊讶。所以确定第二空为different。
从第二段You are all looking at each other's tea cups，第四空可以确定为others’。 那么剩下的第七空应为fine了。12选10的特点是所选单词一般是要变化的，如果不变话，你就要非常小心了。此处，形容词只能变为比较级了，而意义上也很顺畅，所以确定为finer。
