1、命题分析广东高考英语的语法填空题突出综合运用语言能力的考查,着重在语篇中考查考生的语法运用能力,强调语法知识在实际语言中的正确运用,其命题特点如下:1、短文长度:约在150—200词之间,其中2007年高考题是197词,2008年高考题是词181词,2009年高考题是词209词。2、命题形式:(1)提供单词原形:主要提供的是动词、形容词、名词三大类,考生需要根据语境写出正确的词形,一般有3--4个小题。(2)纯空格形式:考生需要根据语境在每个空格处填入一个合适的词,这类题大约有6--7小题,主要考查连词、介词、代词、冠词等。3、语法考点:从考试说明的样题和近两年的高考题来看,实词以动词、代词、形容词、副词为主,其中动词又是重中之重;虚词以介词、冠词为主。而句法方面主要考查复合句的引导词,如定语从句、名词性从句、状语从句。现将近两年高考题语法考点分布列表如下:考查项目2007年2008年2009年介词for/as(2)In/behind(1)on/at(2)冠词a(1)a(1)代词some/other/her(2)his/it/this(2)it/him(2)情态动词×××固定搭配×××名词××choice(1)形容词×higher/natural(2)×副词merrily(1)×谓语动词broke(1)results(1)pushed/informed(2)非谓语动词settled(1)tohelp(1)toplease(1)关联词yet/but/that(1)关系代词who××关系副词where×where从近三年高考题的语法考查内容及题目的设计可以看出,考查的都是最基本的语法知识,没有往年单选题中的难题,设计也比较直接,没有过多的陷阱。2、考查范围1)语境(上下文);231
2)语法:动词(时态、语态、主谓一致、非谓语形式)、名词、代词、冠词、介词、固定搭配、情态动词、复合句、形容词和副词的级、倒装及词性转换、等。3、能力要求1)阅读/理解语篇的能力2)分析句子结构的能力3)熟练运用语法的能力4)单词拼写能力句子的类型简单句:并列句复合句转折因果联合选择名词性从句形容词性从句:副词性从句:主语从句宾语从句表语从句同位语从句定语从句状语从句时间,地点原因,目的结果,条件方式,让步五种基本句型4、复习指导针对高考语法填空题命题的特点,考生在复习备考中要注意以下几点:1.系统掌握语法知识、了解语法功能语法填空题主要是考查考生的语法运用能力,所以考生必须全面、系统地掌握语法,了解语法的主要功能,在此基础上才能正确运用语法。考生在第一轮复习时可以依据语法书的专题讲解,逐一巩固所学知识,做到各个击破。同时要了解各项语法功能,要能够准确分析句子结构和句子成分,如主语和宾语通常由名词、代词充当,谓语有时态、语态的变化,定语常用形容词,状语要使用副词,介词、冠词的位置等等。对于句法主要是熟悉不同复合句的结构,准确判断从句的性质,并熟记各种引导词的作用。掌握了这些基本的语法知识,答题时才有充分的依据,否则就无从下手。2.积累基础词汇、掌握常用的短语搭配语法填空题要求考生填入单词,即考查考生的语言输出能力,所以考生对基础词汇的拼写必须重视,否则就吃大亏。对于常用的、易错的词要多下工夫记忆,如不规则动词过去式、过去分词的变化形式,名词、形容词、副词、否定等的构词规则等等,都要一一熟记在心。231
另外,语法填空题也常考查考生对习语、惯用法和典型句式掌握的熟练程度,所以要求考生在平时复习的过程中要注意积累习语、短语,对固定搭配要了然于心,对典型句式做到脱口而出的程度。3.强化语篇意识,提高理解能力语法填空题的最大特点是在语篇中考查语法知识,准确理解短文是做好语法填空题的前提。这就要求考生要重视提高阅读高理解能力,平时可以选择一些难度中等的文章进行精读,研究文章的写作思路、组织结构特点等等,适当利用完型填空题的文章进行精读、细读,强化语篇意识。随着阅读量的增加和阅读能力的不断提高,材料难度可以适当加大。二、解题技巧由于语法填空题涉及的知识点比较基础,题目难度不是很高,所以解题技巧也是至关重要的。如何正确地运用自己知道的语法知识、提高答题的正确率?根据语法填空题命题的形式和特点,答题时我们可以从词义、词类、词性等方面入手。解“语法填空”题的一般步骤是要先浏览全文把握语篇。浏览全文的目的是把握其大意,为下一步"填空"做好“语义”上的准备,因为“语义”决定着空白处应填一个什么意思的词语并采用什么样的语法形式。在通读全文的过程中,为较好地把握其大意,很有必要弄清该文的体裁、题材(语题)、中心思想、写作主线、段落大意、段落层次等。这些有利于考生真正读懂全文大意,也有利于在"填空"时进行必要的逻辑推理。之后,再分析句子结构,确定填写什么词。1、关于纯空格形式(1)根据语境判断词义通过句意或语篇的要求确定单词的含义,此种设计考查点包括实词和虚词。值得注意的是,有时通过句子本身或上下两个句子就可以确定词义,但有时要通过几个句子、一个段落甚至整个篇章结构才能确定。判断词义可以通过定义、对比、因果、联想、上下文等线索确定。(1)定义法:定义法是指通过定义解释、定语从句、同位语等判断词义,这类词主要是名词,如:Weareallinthepositionofthe_______.Ifweplantagoodseed,wewillgetagoodharvest.Ifourseedispoorandfullofweeds,we’llgetauselesscrop.Ifwedon’tplantanything,we’llharvestnothingatall.(2)对比法:对比法指通过句子的对比关系来判断所缺单词的词义,通常可以通过一些连词或副词来判断,如but,or,however,while,onthecontrary,ontheotherhand等。如:Therearemore_____________teachersinmyschoolsthanmenteachers.(3)因果法:指通过句子的内在联系或句子之间存在的因果关系来判断词义。如:The231
museumwasso______thatitwillbeimpossibletoseealltheexhibitsinoneday.(4)语境线索:即通过上下语境确定空格内要填的词义。如:OnedaymotherlookedatNick’sshoesandsaid,“Nick,lookatyourshoes.How_____theyare!Youmustcleanthem”.Key:(1)farmer(2)women(3)large/big(4)dirty(2)根据句子成分确定词性对于纯空格形式的填空,在确定词义后,还要判断所填词的词性。词性的判断主要是通过分析句子的成分来确定。一般情况下可以作如下分析:(1)主语和宾语一般由名词、代词充当,有时也有动名词、不定式短语。如:FromMondayuntilFriday,mostpeoplearebusyworkingorstudying,butintheeveningoronweekendstheyarefreetorelaxandenjoy_____.(2)谓语主要是由动词充当。在确定词义后,要判断其时态和语态。由于题目要求每空只填一词,所以时态一般只考查一般现在时和一般过去时。如:Sheistheonewhoalwaystakeshissorrowasherownsorrow,theonewhoalways_________byhissidewhetherheispoororrich.★但有时也可能涉及非谓语动词,如:Atmidnight,Iwokeuptofindthewife________soundlyinherman’sembrace.Icouldseethesmileofsecurityonherface.(3)表语、定语和补语一般由形容词充当,有时也有动名词、现在分词和过去分词等。如:Everyyear,onSpringFestivalEve,CCTVbroadcastsitsSpringFestivalGala___________tomillionsofviewers.(4)状语主要由副词充当。如:Hedugfor12hours…24hours._______,inthe38thhour,hepulledbackalargestoneandheardhisson’svoice.Key:(1)themselves(2)stands;sleeping(3)live(4)Eventually/Finally(3)根据句子类型确定词类若两个或几个简单句之间是逗号,可以判断,一定是填连词。连词有两类,一种是并列连词,一种是从属连词。我们可以根据句子的类型判断所要填的词类。主要有以下几种句型:(1)并列句:并列句一般由简单句+并列连词+简单句构成,有时并列连词前有逗号,可以根据上下句的内在联系判断连词,如同等关系(and)、转折关系(but)、选择关系(or)、因果关系(so)等。如:“TherearemanymainlandstudentsatmyuniversityandalltheotheruniversitiesinHongKong.ThesestudentscouldnotspeakCantoneseatfirst,______231
IhadtospeakPutonghuatomakefriendswiththem”saidChueng.(2)状语从句:当确定为状语从句后,就要通过语境理解,判断上下文的逻辑关系是时间、地点、条件、原因、让步、目的或其他,最后确定从属连词。如:_______thesuncameout,helookeddownandlaughed.Therewasnoabyss.Justsixinchesdowntherewasarock.(3)名词性从句:当确定为名词性从句后,可以分析从句是否缺主语、宾语或表语,如果缺以上成分,一般情况下要使用what,有时可能使用who/whom或which;如果不缺以上成分,则考虑句子意思是否完整,完整的句子可以使用that,意思不完整的则考虑where,why,how,because等。如:Iwasinthetrainsittingoppositeamiddle-agedcouple.Theywereordinaryineveryrespect,but______theydidtouchedmedeeply.(4)定语从句:当确定为定语从句后,首先要看看先行词指人、物、时间、地点,还是其他,然后判断引导词在从句中的成分,再根据定语从句的有关规则确定使用哪个引导词。如:However,Cheung,_______graduatedfromHongKongBaptistUniversitythissummer,hasfoundthatnowsheneedsPutonghuamorethanever.Key:(1)so(2)As/when(3)what(4)who(4)根据固定搭配、典型句型确定动词、名词、介词等固定搭配的短语及习惯用法是属于比较简单的考点,只要平时注意积累基本上就能答对。如:Volunteerworkplaysanimportant_______inAmerica’shighschooleducation.★但要有时命题者会在设计时增加一些难度,在短语之间插入其他一些成分,或将固定连用的短语分隔开来,这一点也需注意。Someparentstriedtopullhimofftheschool’sruins,saying,“It’stoolate!Theyarealldead!Thereisnothingyoucando!”________eachparentherespondedwiththesameline:“Areyougoingtohelpmenow?”Andthenhecontinuedtodigforhisson,stonebystone.Key:role/part;To2、提供单词原形的空格(1)括号内提供的是动词当括号内提供的是动词时,主要要判断是谓语还是非谓语。(1)当考查的是谓语时,首先要判断其时态和语态。如:SinceHongKong________(rejoin)Chinain1997,morestudentfromtheChinesemainlandhavechosentostudythere.231
(2)如果考查非谓语,要判断非谓语在句中的成分,根据不同成分使用适当的形式,其中使用ing形式和ed形式居多,有时也考查todo,tobedone,havingdone等形式或名词,如:Tenyearsago,JessicaCheungwasonly13._________(live)withherparentsinHongKong,sheknewlittlePutonghua.Key:(1)rejoined(2)living(2)括号内提供的是形容词或副词如果括号内提供的是形容词,一般是判断考查副词,即要变成副词形式;如果括号内提供的是副词,一般是判断考察形容词,即要变成形容词形式。如:⑴“Thirty-fivecents,”shesaid___________(rude).★很多时候还会考查其比较级和最高级⑵Ifwehadfollowedhisplan,wecouldhavedonethejobbetterwith________(little)moneyand________(few)people.⑶However,therearestillsomeotherpeoplewhohavemadelotsofmoneyateven________(young)ages.★但有时也要根据语境判断是否要变成名词或否定含义。如:⑷Atlast,hercourageand_________(wise)impressedboththeCEOandPrincetonUniversity.Key:(1)rudely(2)less;fewer(3)younger(4)wisdom(3)括号内提供的是名词当括号内提供的是名词时,一般判断考查形容词,如:⑴There,myvoicesoundsreally__________(wonder)becausethere’saslightechotoit.★但有时也可能考查副词、动词等。如:⑵Acertainmanplantedaroseandwateredit________(faith)andbeforeitblossomed,heexaminedit.Key:(1)wonderful(2)faithfully3、语法填空应该特别注意的热点:1、考纲新增语法项目:现在完成进行时。将来进行时。强调。虚拟语气。2、强调句型与状语从句的区别:①Itwasat9o’clock__________hecameback.②Itwas9o’clock_________hecameback.Key:①that②when231
3、定语从句与同位语从句中关联词的区别:Thetruth________hetoldmeisveryimportant.Thetruth______hepassedtheexamisveryimportant.Key:①that/which②that4、在时间或条件状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时的用法。Pleasetellhimtocallbackwhenhe_____________(come)back.Idon’tknowwhenhe________(come)back.Key:①comes②willcome5、标点符号的指示作用Hesentmealetter,______(invite)metodinner.Theweatherturnedouttobeverygood,_______wasmorethanwecouldexpected.Theweatherturnedouttobeverygood;_______wasmorethanwecouldexpected.Key:①inviting②which③It/That6、独立主格结构的作用Alltheguests________(arrive),themeetingwasdeclaredopen.(=Whenalltheguestshadarrived)Hertea________(finish),shewentonwithherwork.(=Afterherteawasfinished)Key:①havingarriving②finished7、垂悬分词:有些已成为习惯用法的分词或短语并不受逻辑主语的制约,具有介词或连词的性质,表明说话者的态度或角度。eg:including,supposing(假设),owingto,considering(考虑到),concerning(关于),judgingfrom/by,generally/strictlyspeaking,.…Everybodyinmyfamilylikesthecross-talk,________(include),me.________(judge)fromwhatyousay,heoughttosucceed.Theyhavedonewell________(consider)thattheyhavenoexperience.Key:①including②Judging③considering8、固定句型:Itisthefirsttimethatsb.+现在完成时Itwasthefirsttimethat+过去完成时9、注意感官动词、使役动词后面的宾语补足语:doing(主动、进行)do(主动,全过程)done(被动、完成)see/watch/notice/lookat宾补+宾语+let/make/havelistento/hear231

31.Behind/In指"在中国的这些成语故事的背后",表示"在……之后",用介词behind,也可理解为"在这些成语故事里",所以也可以用介词In.。32.tohelp不定式做目的状语。33.his由上文中的crop和下文中的thecrop等可知,此处填限定词;这个急性子人当然是急于使他自己的禾苗长得快,故填his。34.it/this代替前文中的(how)tohelphiscropgrowupquickly。35.that同位语从句。36.after/from他感到很累应是在他做了一整天事之后,表示"在……之后",动名词前面用介词after;另外,betiredfromdoingsth.是固定搭配,意为"因做某事而累"。37.but根据逻辑关系应该用转折语气。38.higher和拔苗之前比较更高.39.natural词性变化,应该用形容词。40.resultsBeingtooanxioustohelpaneventdevelop做主语,谓语用单数;客观真理用一般现在时2009年广东高考英语语法填空题31.it。在宾语从句中作形式主语,真正的主语是tochoose…。32.toplease。在形容词后作状语,只能用动词不定式。33.a。表示“一次”愉快的经历。34.pushed。与stepped并列,也用一般过去时。35.where。因两句之间没有连词,必定是填连词;后句是定语从句,要填的词在从句中作地点状语,故填关系副词where。36.choice。在形容词性物主代词后一定是用名词形式。37.on。因表示“出售”的onsale是固定搭配。38.him。给父亲买礼物,根据常识应是使父亲高兴,作宾语用代词。pleasehim/father使他高兴。39.at。名词(table)在句中不作主语,也不作动词的宾语,很可能就是作介词的宾语;由havingsupper可知,填at;因为attable表示“在餐桌边,在进餐”,也是习惯搭配。40.wasinformed。因Jane与inform是被动关系,又是一般过去时。2010年广东高考英语语法填空题31.答案:the。高考考点:考查冠词。试题分析:由上文aspringofclearwater第一次提到water下文---water紧接着第二次特指。易错提醒:易用Its32.答案:who。高考考点:考查定语从句。试题分析:who231
引导定语从句限制elder且做从句的主语。易错提醒:易填that。33、答案:presented.高考考点:考查谓语动词时态。试题分析:本句缺少谓语,由整篇文章知道为过去时。易错提醒:易填presenting.34、答案:warmly。高考考点:考查副词的使用。试题分析:修饰动词smile应用副词。易错提醒:易填warmer.35、答案:with。高考考点:考查介词。试题分析:本处缺介词,构成介词短语,并且表伴随状态。易错提醒:易填in。36、答案:another。高考考点:考查代词。试题分析:由student单数可知前面代数应指一个人,由下文“Heaskedhisteacher”可知是另一个学生。易错提醒:易填other。37.saving38.it39.sweeter40.that第二部分基础翻译部分一、短语与句子翻译训练1Remembermetoyourparents.2IwanttointroducemyfriendJanetoyou.3I’mafraidthatImustbeleavingnow.4It’stimeformetoleavenow.5Thankyouforeverythingyou’vedoneforme.Itisverykindofyoutosayso.6I’dliketocongratulateyouonyourgoodworkinthesethreeyears.7I’sorry,butsmokingisforbiddenhere.8I’msorrytohavekeptyouwaitingsolong.---Itdoesn’tmatter.9Iamsorryaboutthat/Iamsorrytohearthat/IamsorrythatIhaveinterruptedyourstudy.10–It’sapityIdidn’tthinkofitearlier./-That’sallright./Itdoesn’tmatter.11Iapologizetoyouforbeingsoangrywithyou.12Ididn’tmeantobesorude.13Shallwemeetatfiveo’clockatthetheatre?14IwishyousuccessinyourwrittenEnglish.15Iwouldliketotakeacloselookatthefamouspainting.16May/Can/CouldIaskyouforsomeadvice?17WillyoupleasegivethisnotetoTom?231
