Abstract: Since the reform of CET4 in 2023, the cloze test, as a question type designed to test students' comprehensive language application abilities, requires examinees not only to have reading comprehension skills but also to master grammatical structures and word meaning discrimination, while possessing logical thinking and analytical judgment abilities. This paper aims to explore the problem-solving strategies for the cloze test in the reading comprehension section of the College English Test Band 4 (CET4). The article conducts a detailed analysis from three aspects: ability assessment design, problem-solving steps, and problem-solving skills, aiming to provide effective problem-solving methods for examinees to improve their scores in this question type. Through the analysis of past exam questions, this paper proposes specific problem-solving steps and skills, including vocabulary grouping, grammatical structure analysis, and maintenance of semantic coherence, in the hope of helping examinees achieve better results in the CET4 examination.
