A a； the B the； a C不填； a D不填； the 答案： C 试题分析：句意 :五月的第二个星期日是母亲节 .对于孩子们来说这是一个特殊的节日 .前文母亲为专有名词 ,前面不加冠词 .下文泛指任何一个特殊的节日 ,故用不定冠词 a,选 C. 考点：冠词用法 点
2、评：冠词是一种虚词，在英语中只能和名词一起使用。不定冠词用在名词前，表示泛指任何一个。定冠词用在名词前表示特指某一个。在专有名词及表示泛指的复数名词前一般不要冠词，叫做零冠词。应用中需结合一定的语境来判断是用不定冠词还是用定冠词。 -Ive just heard that the lecture (讲座 )to be given by Ma Yun,the Alibaba CEO,has been cancelled(取消 ). -Oh , no!_ A Its wonderful. B It doesnt matter. C I have no idea. D I was looking f
3、orward to that. 答案： D 试题分析： Its wonderful.棒极了； It doesnt matter.没关系； I have no idea.我不知道； I was looking forward to that.我正盼望着那事。根据上文，我刚听说阿里巴巴的 CEO马云要进行的讲座被取消了。 哦，不。结合语境可知选 D。 考点：情景交际 点评：情景交际的考查是英语考试的重点，做此类题型首先要理解各个选项中句子的含义，然后结合具体语境选择合适答语。回答时一般要遵从以下几个原则：礼貌原则，利他原则和英语文化习惯。平时应注意积累各种习惯用语，了解英美文化的区别，尤其注意不能
4、以中式思维思考英语问题。平时应加强英语阅读，增强语感，多了解一些英语文化方面的知识。 Things are _ on Mars _ on Earth because of the different gravity. A much lighter; than that B much lighter; than those C not so light; as that D not so light; as those 答案： B 试题分析：句意：东西在火星上比在地球上轻得多，因为不同的地心引力。本句下文只是代词指代前文重复内容，表示抽象含义，故用单数形式 that， so light as像
5、一样轻，结合语境可知选 B。 考点： 短语辨析 点评：解答此类题型的要点是了解各个短语的基本含义及用法的不同，同时注意其表示多个含义的现象，然后结合语境选择合适答案：。 -Be careful. You might fall into the river. -Thank you. I _ I _ so close to it A didnt know; am standing B dont know; am standing C didnt know; was standing D didnt know; would standing 答案： C 试题分析：句意：小心。你可能会掉到河里面。 谢
6、谢你。我不知道我站的离它如此近。结合语境可知下文主句描述的是过去发生的动作，从句中描述的是过去正在进行的动作，故主句用一般过去时态，宾语从句用过去进行时态。选 C。 考点：时态 点评：英语中的时态主要是借助于时间状语与上下文语境来进行判断。解答此类题型，首先要注意句子中的时间状语，如果没有则要通过分析上下文，结合语境来判断句子的时态。英语宾语从句的时态和主句没有必然的联系，需结合语境进行具体分析。 Mary, along with her parents _ Hainan for a week and they will come back soon. A have been to B has
7、 been in C have been in D has been to 答案： B 试题分析：句意：玛丽，和他的父母已经一起在海南呆了一个星期了，他们不久就要回来了。结合语境可知前文描述的是从过去某时持续到现在的动作，故用现在完成时态，本句主语是玛丽， along with her parents为伴随主语，故助动词用单数， be to表示瞬间动作，故选 B。 考点：完成时态及动词应用 点评：英语中的时态主要是借助于时间状语与上下文语境来进行判断。解答此类题型，首先要注意句子中的时间状语，如果没有则要通过分析上下文，结合语境来判断句子的时态。完成时态中的动词有瞬间动词和持续性动词之分，瞬间
8、动词的过去分词强调的是动作的完成，持续性动词强调的是动作的持续性。现在完成时态中表示一段时间的时间状语不能和瞬间动词连用，持续性动词不能和表示瞬间时间的时间状语连用，需注意区分。 That little boy preferred _ out to play rather than _ TV at home. A going; to watch B to go; watch C going; watching D to go; watching 答案： B 试题分析：固定句式： prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.“宁愿做 .而不做 .”结合语境可知选 B
9、。 考点：固定句式 点评： prefer的用法比较复杂，需要注意的是 prefer A to B 与 prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.的含义相同，结构不同。解答此类题型需要注意的是后面搭配对象的不同。 _ information! I hear you have finished writing a _ report. A What an excited; seven thousand words B What excited; seven thousand words C What an exciting; seven-thousand-word D
10、 What exciting; seven-thousand-word 答案： D 试题分析：句意：多么令人兴奋的消息啊 !我听说你完成了一份七千字的报告。本句中 information是不可数名词，前面不能加不定冠词。英语中两个或多个单词中间可以用短横线连接起来，起一个相当于形容词的作用，这类单词叫做合成词。结合语境可知选 A。 考点：冠词用法及合成词 点评：冠词是一种虚词，在英语中只能和名词一起使用。不定冠词用在可数单数名词前，表示泛指任何一个。不可数名词前不能加不定冠词。英语中很多单词是通过合成的方式构成的，他们叫做合成词，常见合成词有合成名词、合成动词、合成形容词等几种类型，其语法功能
11、与普通单词用法一样。其一般构成规则就是其构成单词一般都要用原形，这也是一些考试中常考的题型，牢记即可。 If you want to buy an expensive camera, we have several models for you _. A to be chosen B to choose C to choose from D for choosing 答案： C 试题分析：句意：如果你想买一个贵的照相机，我们有几种型号供你选择。不定式作目的状语表示具体的将要发生的动作，本句中 several models是选择的范围，故需加介词 from，不用被动语态，结合语境可知选 C。 考
12、点：非谓语动词 点评：不定式作句子成分表示具体的将要进行的动作，一般不用于介词后面。动名词作句子成分往往表示抽象的，反复发生的动作。介词后面一般接动名词作宾语，也有部分动词 后接动名词做宾语，注意和不定式作宾语表达含义的不同。 He had _ that he had difficulty finding a job. A so little education B such little education C such a little education D so a little education 答案： A 试题分析： so是副词，如此，这样； such是形容词，如此的。句意：他受
13、过如此少的教育，因此找工作很困难。本句中 education是不可数名词，前面不能加冠词 a，本题中 so作为副词修饰 little，表示少的程度，故选 A。 考点： so和 such辨析 点评：这两个单词的主要区别是词性的不同，也就是所修饰对象的不同。答题中我们首先要详细了解这些单词作为不同词性的含义及用法，尤其注意其比较特殊的用法，然后结合语境选择正确答案：。 I received a number of _, but _ of them is valuable to me. A advice; both B advice; all C suggestions; both D sugges
14、tions; none 答案： D 试题分析： advice建议，忠告； suggestion建议，示意； both两者都； all所有都；none一个也没有。我收到许多建议，但是他们当中没有一条对我有价值。结合语境可知选 D。 考点：词义辨析 点评：该题型是属于英语考试的基础题型，是必考内容。英语单词同汉语一样具有一词多义，一词多性的特点。解答此类问题首先要理解每个选项的基本含义，并注意交叉含义间的区别，了解其特殊用法，然后结合语境选择正确答案：。 -What about the popcorn -Wonderful! Nothing tastes _. A nice B better C
15、worse D terrible 答案： B 试题分析： nice好的； better更好的； worse更坏的； terrible可怕的，很糟的。句意：这爆米花怎么样？ 棒极了。再没有比这更好的了。结合语境可知选B。 考点：形容词辨析 点评：词义辨析考的是学生的基础词汇知识，了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题型的关键，需要注意的就是其一词多义现象及所修饰对象的不同，然 后结合上下文语境选择合适答案：。 -There is somebody knocking at the door. Who_ it be -Im not sure. It _ be a postman. A may; must B
16、 will; can C can; may D may; will 答案： C 试题分析： may可以，可能； must必须，一定； will将要； can能，可能。句意：有人在敲门。可能是谁？ 我不确定。可能是邮递员。结合语境可知选 C。 考点：情态 动词辨析 点评：情态动词的考查是初中英语考查的重点，平时学习中一定要熟记这些词的基本词义及用法上的不同，注意其用法及在句子中表达语气的不同。考试中结合语境选择合适答案：。 _ the teachers in the school is one hundred, and _ of them are women teachers. A The nu
17、mber of; four-fifths B A number of; four-fifth C A number of; four-fifths D The number of; four-fifth 答案： A 试题分析： The number of 的数目； A number of许多；英语中一般用基数词表示分数的分子，用序数词表示分数的分母。当分子是一时，分数的分母用单数形式，在表示分数时，当分数的分子大于一时，分数的分母要用复数形式。句意：这个学校中老师的数目是一百，他们当中许多人是女老师。当分数修饰复数名词时，谓语动词与被修饰的名词保持一致，结合语境可知选 A。 考点：分数表达 点
18、评：英语分数的表达规则比较固定，学习中 应牢记这些基本规则。需注意的是，由分数修饰的主语后面谓语动词的数，和被修饰主语的单复数保持一致。 -Why did Suzy look so stressed when we saw her -Because she wondered_. A what her sister has done during the trip B when would her father come back C if she had passed the driving test D where did the other friends do 答案： C 试题分析：英语
19、宾语从句中一般为陈述语序。句意：当我们看见她时 ,为什么苏西看起来如此压抑 因为想知道她是否通过了驾考。结合语境可知选 C。 考点：宾语从句 点评：宾语从句中一般为陈述语序，需注意当疑问词做从句主语时，则貌似倒装句，需注意区分。关于引导词的区分需结合引导词的基本含义及其在句子中所承担的句子成分进行具体分析。宾语从句的时态和主句没有必然的联系，需结合语境具体分析。 完型填空 完形填空 先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题所给的四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Mexican people have a tradition of greeting each other with h
