２００５年高考英语单项填空热点透视
作者：籍万杰 王法强
热点一､考查交际英语,重在考查实际应用和英汉思维差异｡
[考题示例]
1.—Can I speak to Mr. Wang, please ?
—_______ (全国卷Ⅰ)
A.Who are you? B.I＇m Wang.
C.Speaking.D.Are you John?
[分析]本题旨在考查考生对打电话的交际用语的掌握情况,用汉语式选项进行干扰｡注意英语与汉语在打电话时表达习惯的不同:汉语打电话时说“我是……”,英语中不用 “I am…”,而用“This is …speaking.”或其他省略形式,如“speaking.”;“This is ….”;“John speaking.”;“John＇s here.”等｡如果要问对方是谁,英语中不用“Who are you?”,而用“Who is calling/speaking, please?”;“Who＇s that speaking/calling?”;“Who is it?”;“Is that…?”等表达形式｡根据本题打电话的情景可知,答案为C｡
2.—Could you do me a favor and take these books to my office?
—Yes, ________.(山东卷)
A.for pleasure B.I could
C.my pleasure D.with pleasure
[分析]本题旨在考查考生对my pleasure和with pleasure的使用场合的掌握情况｡my pleasure是对表示感谢的答语,with pleasure才是求助的答语｡答案为D｡
3.—James, I＇m sorry I used your computer when you were away this morning.
—________.(福建卷)
A.That＇s all right B.It＇s a pleasure
C.You are welcome D.Don＇t mention it
[分析]本题旨在考查对道歉的答语｡B､C､D项是对感谢的答语｡答案为A｡
[应试对策]熟练掌握《高中英语课程标准》和《考试大纲》所要求的交际英语项目,特别注意英汉思维不一致的情况,语言要适合具体的交际行为｡
热点二､考查动词时态､语态,注重在语境中考查时态的正确使用,主从句时态呼应和固定句式也是常考点｡一般现在时､现在进行时､一般过去时､过去进行时､现在完成时､过去完成时以及完成进行时是考查的热点｡
[考题示例]
1.The coffee is wonderful!It doesn＇t taste like anything I_______before.(全国卷Ⅰ)
A.was havingB.have
C.have ever had D.had ever had
[分析]本题考查现在完成时和过去完成时的区别｡受before的影响,此题考生易误选D项｡过去完成时的特点是“过去的过去”,此题没有一般过去时,构不成“过去的过去”,不能使用过去完成时｡本句的意思是“这份咖啡不像我以前喝的一样”,强调到说话时为止,应使用现在完成时｡答案为C｡
2.When the old man_______to walk back to his house,the sun______itself behind the mountain.(湖北卷)
A.started; had already hidden
B.had started; had already hidden
C.had started; was hiding D.was starting;hid
[分析]本题考查两个动作的时间先后关系｡根据语境,老人“开始”朝家走的时候,太阳“早已经躲到”大山的后面去了｡答案为A｡
[应试对策]解答时态语态题时一定要结合语境,弄清时间先后关系,可根据不同情况采取“找标法”(寻找时间标志词)､“呼应法”(主从句时态呼应)､“搭配法”(固定搭配)､“语境法”等解题技巧,语态通常结合时态一起考查｡
热点三､考查情态动词,主要考查情态动词表推测以及“情态动词+完成时”的用法,间或考查常见情态动词的基本用法｡
[考题示例]
1.I _______ have been more than six years old when the accident happened. (北京卷)
A.shouldn＇t B.couldn＇t C.mustn＇t D.needn＇t
[分析]本题考查情态动词表推测的用法｡couldn＇t have done/been…是对过去的否定推测,意思是“(过去)根本不可能”｡答案为B｡
2.—Lucy doesn＇t mind lending you her dictionary.
—She___.I have already borrowed one.(湖南卷)
A.can＇t B.mustn＇t C.needn＇t D.shouldn＇t
[分析]本题考查情态动词的基本意思｡根据I have already borrowed one.可知,Lucy“没必要”借给我她的字典｡答案为C｡
3.This cake is very sweet.You_____a lot of sugar in it.(辽宁卷)
A.should put B.could have put
C.might putD.must have put
[分析]本题考查情态动词表推测的用法｡“蛋糕很甜肯定是你在做的时候放了很多糖”,对过去的肯定推测用must have done｡
[应试对策]熟知常用情态动词的基本意义,重点掌握can､may､must表推测的用法和“情态动词+完成时”的用法｡
热点四､考查非谓语动词的用法,特别是不定式作定语､状语,不定式的省略以及分词作状语和补足语｡
[考题示例]
1.The storm left,_______a lot of damage to this area.(全国卷Ⅰ)
A.causedB.to have caused
C.to cause D.having caused
[分析]本题考查非谓语动词的用法｡这是一个简单句,逗号后不能使用谓语动词,有个别考生会误把caused当成动词的过去式而选择A项｡一般说来,逗号分开后应使用分词作状语,而不使用不定式｡答案为D｡
2._____in a white uniform,he looks more like a cook than a doctor.(湖南卷)
A.Dressed B.To dress
C.Dressing D.Having dressed
[分析]本题考查分词作伴随状语｡注意dress这个动词表示“穿衣”时使用be dressed in,因此作状语的应是过去分词dressed｡答案为A｡
