中考英語(yǔ)單項(xiàng)選擇面面觀
陳傳光供稿
單項(xiàng)選擇題是中考英語(yǔ)的重要題型之一。其知識(shí)覆蓋面廣,靈活性大,綜合性強(qiáng)。考查的內(nèi)容涉及詞匯、語(yǔ)法、習(xí)慣用法、交際用語(yǔ)等各個(gè)方面。單項(xiàng)選擇題對(duì)語(yǔ)言知識(shí)的考查,通常是將語(yǔ)言知識(shí)與語(yǔ)言功能相結(jié)合,在語(yǔ)境中考查知識(shí)的應(yīng)用。
近年來(lái),中考英語(yǔ)減少了對(duì)純語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)的考查,而相應(yīng)增加了對(duì)綜合知識(shí)的考查。例如加長(zhǎng)題干,形成一定的語(yǔ)境,要求同學(xué)們能夠活用知識(shí)、辨析詞語(yǔ)的用法和含義、根據(jù)句中的情景進(jìn)行邏輯推理和判斷,強(qiáng)調(diào)了培養(yǎng)實(shí)際運(yùn)用英語(yǔ)的能力。這種題型所涉及的考點(diǎn)主要有以下幾方面:
? 定冠詞、不定冠詞的基本用法;
? 名詞單復(fù)數(shù)和名詞所有格;
? 人稱代詞、物主代詞、反身代詞及不定代詞的用法;
? 形容詞和副詞的原級(jí)、比較級(jí)、最高級(jí)及兩種詞類的用法區(qū)別;
? 基數(shù)詞、序數(shù)詞與分?jǐn)?shù)的用法及表達(dá)法;
? 介詞的基本用法;
? 連詞的基本用法;
? 一些習(xí)慣用語(yǔ)和固定搭配的記憶和使用;
? 動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)、動(dòng)詞不定式及動(dòng)名詞的用法;
? 情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的基本用法;
? 反意疑問(wèn)句、感嘆句、祈使句、賓語(yǔ)從句和特殊疑問(wèn)句的基本句子結(jié)構(gòu)和用法。
單項(xiàng)選擇題的測(cè)試目的明確,覆蓋面廣,不僅可以測(cè)試學(xué)生對(duì)于基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)的掌握,也可以考查他們運(yùn)用語(yǔ)言的能力。在解答此類題型時(shí),可根據(jù)其特點(diǎn)從以下幾個(gè)方面入手:
1. 固定搭配法
英語(yǔ)句子中詞語(yǔ)和詞語(yǔ)之間有一定的“固定搭配”,主要包括介詞短語(yǔ)、動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)、名詞短語(yǔ)、冠詞在固定搭配中的用法等。因此,如果我們熟悉這些固定搭配,就可以很容易地選出正確答案。例如:
① Jim is _school. His father is _work.
A. on; at B. at; at C. at; on D. on; on
★ at school表“在學(xué)校,在上學(xué)”,而at work表“在上班”,都是固定搭配。故選B。
② If you read a lot, you life will be full_ pleasure.
A. by B. of C. for D. with★ be full of意為“充滿”,是固定搭配。故選B。
③_age 7, Bruce won the second prize in the piano competition.
A. In B. At C. On D. For
★ at age+數(shù)字=at the age of+數(shù)字,指“在……歲時(shí)”,屬于習(xí)慣搭配。故選B。
2. 語(yǔ)境分析法
在處理知識(shí)與能力的關(guān)系時(shí),命題者會(huì)很注意在盡可能真實(shí)與自然的語(yǔ)境中考查學(xué)生對(duì)知識(shí)的掌握與運(yùn)用情況,因而常將詞語(yǔ)辨析、時(shí)態(tài)選擇和其他語(yǔ)法知識(shí)置于一定的語(yǔ)境中。例如:
① —When _you _your old friend?
—The day before yesterday.
A. will; visit B. did; visit C. have; visited D. are; visiting
★ 由答語(yǔ)“前天”可知問(wèn)句應(yīng)用一般過(guò)去時(shí),故選B。
② —_do you go to the library?
—Once a week.
A. How often B. How long C. How far D. How soon
★ 由答語(yǔ)“一周一次”可知詢問(wèn)的是對(duì)方去圖書(shū)館的頻率,故選A。
③ —I can’t find Jack. Where is he?
—He _for tomorrow’s competition at home.
A. prepares B. is preparing C. has prepared D. prepared
★ 由上文的“Where is he?”可知是詢問(wèn)杰克現(xiàn)在所在的位置,再結(jié)合各選項(xiàng)可知用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí),故選B。
3. 逐個(gè)排除法考生總會(huì)對(duì)少數(shù)難題望而生畏,但考生可根據(jù)題干的特定信息及句子的結(jié)構(gòu)和語(yǔ)法進(jìn)行有理有據(jù)的合理推測(cè),排除錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng),從而找出正確的答案。當(dāng)你對(duì)某個(gè)選項(xiàng)的意義用法不明確,而這個(gè)選項(xiàng)又恰恰是正確答案時(shí),可以將錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)逐個(gè)剔除,那么剩余的一個(gè)即為正確答案。例如:
① The teacher wanted to have a word with Jim, but she had_to tell him.
A. important something B. nothing important C. anything important D. something important
★ 形容詞作定語(yǔ)修飾不定代詞時(shí),形容詞須后置,故排除A項(xiàng);nothing表“沒(méi)有什么”,something表“某事,某物”,由句意可知選B。
②_weather it is! We can’t go boating on the Xuanwu Lake.
A. What good B. How good C. How bad D. What bad
★ 句中已有主語(yǔ)it,weather(天氣)是名詞,故感嘆句用what引導(dǎo),排除B、C兩項(xiàng);再由下句句意“我們不能去玄武湖劃船了”可推知,現(xiàn)在天氣不好,故用形容詞bad。故選D。
③ He invited some classmates to come to his party, but_came.
A. a little B. little C. a few D. few
★ classmates是可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式,首先排除A、B兩項(xiàng);a few表示肯定,few表示否定,根據(jù)but判斷句意前后有轉(zhuǎn)折之意,故選D
4. 前后照應(yīng)法
答題前首先應(yīng)弄清楚題干的真正意思,然后聯(lián)系上下文,捕捉暗示的信息,最后判斷出正確答案。例如:
① My brother is a_boy. He always does little work the whole day.
A. busy B. good C. nice D. lazy
★ 單看第一句,從語(yǔ)法上講,A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都沒(méi)有問(wèn)題。但由后句“他總是整天無(wú)所事事”,可知他是一個(gè)懶惰的男孩。故只有D項(xiàng)符合句意。
② —Excuse me, haven’t you learned the new_law? Everyone in the car must wearthe seat belt.
—Sorry, we won’t do that again.
A. food B. traffic C. medicine D. education
★ 上句句意為“打擾一下,難道你沒(méi)學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)新的_法規(guī)嗎?車(chē)?yán)锏拿總€(gè)人都必須系上安全帶”。而food為“食物”,traffic為“交通”,medicine為“藥”,education為“教育”,故選B。
③ Being honest is the first _if you want to make friends with others.
A. step B. time C. job D. hand
★ step為“步,階梯”,time為“時(shí)間”,job為“工作”,hand為“手”。該句句意為“如果你想與他人交朋友,誠(chéng)實(shí)是第一步”。故選A。
5. 比較辨析法
命題者常把語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)相似的句型和易混詞匯放在同一語(yǔ)境中,用來(lái)考查考生對(duì)基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)掌握的牢固程度和辨析能力。這就要求考生找出所要考查的知識(shí)要點(diǎn),并加以比較和辨析,認(rèn)清它們之間的區(qū)別,從而找出正確答案。例如:
① It _me two hours to do my homework last night. A. spent B. took C. paid D. used
★ 本題考查表“花費(fèi)”的句型。D項(xiàng)為干擾項(xiàng),故排除;spend、take和pay都可作“花費(fèi)”義,因此單憑詞義很難確定,但只要掌握了it作形式主語(yǔ)時(shí)的句式“It takes sb. some time to do sth.”,便很容易選出正確答案了。故選B。
② —W_hat’s wrong with you, Jack? You look tired.—I to prepare for the final exam last night.
A. picked up B. woke up C. stayed up D. put up
★ pick up為“撿起,拾起”,wake up為“醒來(lái)”,stay up為“不睡覺(jué),熬夜”,put up為“舉起,搭建,進(jìn)行,張貼”。由上句中l(wèi)ook tired(看起來(lái)困倦)可知,stay up符合題意。故選C。
③ —Can I _your bike?_—With pleasure. But you mustn’t it to others.
A. lend; borrow B. borrow; lend C. lend; lend D. borrow; borrow
★ lend表示句子的主語(yǔ)“借出”,而borrow表示句子的主語(yǔ)“借入”。題中問(wèn)句的意思是“我可以借用你的自行車(chē)嗎?”,表示的是句子主語(yǔ)“借入”,故用borrow;題中答語(yǔ)中第二句的意思是“但你一定不要把它借給別人”,表示的是句子主語(yǔ)“借出”,故用lend。故選B。
6. 常識(shí)運(yùn)用法
根據(jù)我們平時(shí)掌握的政治、歷史、地理、天文、數(shù)理化、生活、風(fēng)俗等方面的知識(shí)去進(jìn)行推理判斷從而得出答案,這種方法就叫常識(shí)運(yùn)用法。例如:
① People usually eat moon cakes on_.
A. Teachers’ Day B. Mother’s Day C. May Day D. Mid-Autumn Festival
★ 人們通常在中秋節(jié)才吃月餅,故選項(xiàng)D正確。
② France is a good place for holiday. You can visit _in France.
A. Big Ben B. the Eiffel Tower C. Mount Fuji D. the Great Wall
★ Big Ben是英國(guó)的大本鐘;the Eiffel Tower是法國(guó)的埃菲爾鐵塔;Mount Fuji是日本的富士山;the Great Wall是中國(guó)的長(zhǎng)城。由題中的France(法國(guó))可知選B。
③ In _, people are supposed to kiss when they meet for the first time.
A. China B. Japan C. Korea D. Brazil
★ 結(jié)合西方國(guó)家的習(xí)俗可知,見(jiàn)面親吻以示問(wèn)候是法國(guó)、意大利、西班牙及巴西等國(guó)的禮節(jié)。故選D。
