2、本题难度适中。冠词是虚词,本身不能单独使用,也没有词义,它用在名词的前面,帮助指明名词的含义。定冠词表特指,不定冠词表泛指。命题人还经常考固定短语中冠词的运用。 即学即练: We work together to achieve our common purpose: _world that is safer, cleaner and healthier than _one we found. A the; the B a; / C a; the D the; / : C。第一空表示泛指,用不定冠词;第二空后面由 we found 限定,表特指,用定冠词。 While giving the s

5、A。 考点:考查形容词辨析。 点评:本题难度适中。考查辨析词性 及词形相近的词,是近几年的高考的热点,需要考生平时注意积累,牢记它们的用法及区别。 即学即练: The police always take advantage of dogs_sense of smell to search for something. A.sharp B.sensitive C.sensible D.smart : A。句意:警察利用狗的敏锐的嗅觉来寻找某物,故选 A。 The ordinary house _ we visited three days ago used to be the house of
6、 Victor Hugo, a well-known litterateur(文学家 ). A what B where C to which D不填 答案: D 试题分析:句意:我们三年前参观的普通的房子过去是雨果住的,他是一位著名的文学家。这里 we visited three days ago是定语从句,先行词是 ordinary house,关系词在定语从句中作宾语,可以省略, what不能引导定语从句,where 不能在从句中作宾语, which 可以在从句中宾语,但是不能加 to,故选 D。 考点:考查定语从句的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。定语从句是英语语法中非常重要的内容,在阅读
7、和理解过程中起着极其重要的作用。定语从句的考查关键在于定语从句的成分分析,需要考生有分析理解复杂的句子结构的能力。 即学即练: The famous basketballer, _ tried to make a comeback, attracted a lot of attention. A. where B. when C. which D. who : D。句意:先行词是 The famous basketballer(著名的篮球明星 ),故要用 who 来引导定语从句,因为其余三项均不用于指人。 Bob, youre absent -minded! Oh, Im sorry I _
8、attention to you, Miss Shute. A havent paid B wasnt paying C am not paying D wont pay 答案: B 试题分析:句意: -鲍勃,你心不在焉。 -哦,对不起,我没有注意到你, 舒特小姐。这里说的是鲍勃心不在焉,也是就是发生对话之前鲍勃心不在焉没有注意舒特小姐,故用过去进行时。 考点:考查动词时态的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。动词时态是高中阶段的重难点之一,高中要求掌握的时态需要考生牢记它们的用法,但是时态必须要结合一定的语境才能做出正确的判断。 即学即练: Bob has gone to California. O
9、h, can you tell me when he A. has left B. left C. is leaving D. would leave : B。句意 : “Bob 已经去了加利福尼亚。 噢,你能告诉我他什么时候离开的? ”Bob has gone to California,去的动作已经发生过,说明他离开的动作发生在过去,因此使用一般过去时。选 B。 With everything important _, my father is now lying on the beach, enjoying the bright sunshine and fresh air. A to
10、complete B completing C completed D being completed 答案: C 试题分析:句意:由于一切重要的工作已经做完,我的父亲现在躺在沙滩上享受着明媚的阳光和呼吸着新鲜的空气。这里是 with的复合结构, everything与complete之间是被动关系,根据句意可知工作已经做完,所以用过去分词。故选 C。 考点:考查 with的复合结构的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。 with的复合结构是高中阶段的重难点之一,考生容易把done写成 be done ,并且不理解什么时候会用这种结构。如果把这种结构用在写作中这也是提高分数的亮点句。 即学即练 : W

A have B are C has D is 答案: D 试题分析:句意:那个人与他的父母都对他的妻子做的菜很满意。 as well as常用来连接两个并列的成分,作 “也,还 ”解。它强调的是前一项,后一项只是顺便提及。因此连接并列主语时,谓语动
12、词与前一项一致; the man是单数,故排除 AB;这里是 be content with对 满意,故选 D。 考点:考查主谓一致的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。主谓一致是高中阶段的重要的语法项目,它的各种情况比较多,需要考生牢记它的用法,这里同时又考查了一个短语。 即学即练: The number of people invited _ fifty, but a number of them _ absent for different reasons. A.were; was B.was; were C.was; was D.were; were : B。 the number of+可数
13、名词复数作主语,谓语动词用单数;而 a number of+可数名词复数作主语,谓语动词用复数。 Charlie Chaplin found _ difficult to entertain the audience at first. A it B that C one D this 答案: A 试题分析:句意:卓别林发现起初使观众逗乐很难。这里 it 是形式主语,代替真正的主语 to entertain the audience at first.其他的代词没有这种用法。故选 A。 考点:考查代词的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。代词是高中阶段要求掌握的语法项目,尤其是 it 的用法多,并且还
14、是高考常考的知识点,需要考生在平时反复的练习中巩固掌握它的用法。 即学即练: Dont leave your keys in the car. Someone might steal _ . A. one B. that C.this D. it : D。句意:因为指与前面提到的是同一物时,用 it,此处 it 替代 the car。 We have booked a room for today and tomorrow. _, sir.

15、房间。 -我查一下,先生。Im sure我确定; Thank you谢谢; My pleasure不客气; Ill check我查一下。根据句意故选 D。 考点:考查交际用语的用法。 点评:本题难度适中。交际用语的考查要放在上下文语境中理解运用,提醒考生平时加强背诵短语的意义及用法。特别留心英语表达习惯与中文表达习惯有较大差异的日常用语。不要中了试题的圈套。 即学即练: May I turn down the radio a bit _, if you insist. A. No B. My pleasure C. All right D. Thats right : C。上 文在征询意见,请
16、求许可。下文尽管有点不乐意,还是同意了。 All right, OK 都可以。如果没有 if you insist,可以爽快地说 Go ahead/Yes, of course. Jack is doing nothing at all but study Chinese. As far as I know, he is _ to study abroad, perhaps China.

Parents using face-to-

37、nal Literacy Trust as part of its “Talk To Your Baby” campaign, found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in away-facing buggies.
