这篇短文介绍了一位著名的数学老师——陶哲轩。他从很小的时候就表现出了对于数学的良好天分。他14岁进入大学，去年夏天赢得了菲尔兹奖。他是一个把爱好当做工作的人。

【1】句意：数学课使400个学生感兴趣。Math数学；music音乐；Japanese日本人;English英语。联系本段第一句话描述，可知此处指的是一堂数学课，故选A。

【2】Passing通过，经过；watching观看；shouting喊叫；reading读书；。结合语境可知此处指的是，有35个人从后窗户里面观看。这里是there be+主语+doing的形式+介词短语，表示在某处有某人正在做着某事。故选B。

【3】What什么；Which哪一个；Who谁；whose谁的；句意：谁能让一个枯燥的科目变得如此有趣？根据下文Terence Tao, the 31-year-old university teacher, is known as “the Mozart of Math”可知这里用who来提问。.故选C。

【10】even甚至，即使；also也；still仍旧，还；already已经。联系前一句描述，可知句意为：但是他仍旧喜爱数学。根据下文“In many ways, my work is my hobby.” he said.可知上文是仍然是。根据题意，故选C。

技巧一

完型在"填空"的时候，切忌用中文的"搭配"去感觉，也就是所谓三大出题伎俩之一的"中文代入"。要思考英语的搭配，不要死记，要理解和搜集。

技巧二

首段首句不出题，是主旨句（2001年除外），除首句外基本每句话都要出题，首段首句没有读懂就不要做下去；

技巧三

考研完型填空里面名词、动词、形容词，这些实词的考点往往被给出明确的线索，存在于改填空的前后，对该填空进行前后联系(名词前面adj。后面从句;形容词前面adv。后面n.;动词前面主语后面宾语等等)指示，考生如果能够判断出前后的关键而又是少量的信息，可以保证题目做对

技巧四

如出现陌生的选项词汇，而我们又不认识的时候，这里注意，蒙也有技巧，一般来说选择相对简单的词汇，不要选择偏的怪的词汇。

技巧五

答案分布规律： 每篇完形填空中A、B、C、D作为正确选项的个数各在4—6个之间；A作为正确选项的个数最多；没有连续三个答案都一样的情况，连续两个答案都一样的情况为0—3个； 在五个一组的答案中，最少要出现三个字母作为正确的选项；

技巧六

在四个选项中，有两个实词互为同义词时，答案往往在其中； 在四个选项中，有两个虚词互为同义词时，答案往往都不选；当四个选项有一个共同意义时，该意义往往不能入选，要看选项的特殊含义
