Normally, there will be a hint somewhere in the sentence. Try to practice and understand more; then you will good at it.

Cheers,

The sentence should make complete sense, without any extra assumption on your part, with the answer you've chosen. If it seems a little strange, dump the answer.

Some answer choices are quite contrary to what the sentence is trying to convey. Try to get a FEEL for the sentence, try to break it down...this works really well with the 2 blank questions.

Cover up the answer options. Read the sentence. NOW - think of a word that might fit BEFORE you look at the possible answers!!!" I got this tip from Vocabulary and the GRE
