動詞及動詞詞組是英語語法的核心,也是構(gòu)成一個句子最基本的成分。動詞及動詞詞組的靈活運用是英語的一大特點,是學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)中的難點,更是每年高考中測試的重點。本文通過近三年高考對動詞及動詞詞組的真題進(jìn)行分析和總結(jié),希望能夠幫助學(xué)生提高動詞及動詞詞組試題的解題能力。
一、考查具體語境中動詞詞義的辨析
近三年,高考對動詞詞義的考查,多出現(xiàn)在完形填空中。在做題時,要根據(jù)上下文的語境和選項中動詞的含義來確定最終答案。
【典例1】________the vehicle, they saw that a woman was trying to get out of the broken window. (2016年全國卷I,完形填空)
A. Starting
B. Parking
C. Passing
D. Approaching
解析:根據(jù)語境可知,應(yīng)該是靠近車。start“開始,發(fā)動”;park“泊車”;pass“經(jīng)過,傳遞”;approach“靠近”。故答案選D。
【典例2】My kids and I were heading into the supermarket over the weekend. On the way, we spotted a man holding a piece of paper that said, “________my job. Family to feed.”(2015年全國卷I,完形填空)
A. Lost
B. Changed
C. Quit
D. Finished
解析:根據(jù)上下文可知,紙上寫的是“丟了工作,還有家人要養(yǎng)活?!惫蚀鸢高xA。
二、考查動詞近義詞的辨析
【典例1】Legend has it that the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is to________the soul of Qu Yuan.(2014年江蘇卷)
A. remember
B. remind
C. recover
D. recall
解析:remember, remind, recall 三個詞意思相近。remember“記住,記起”;remind“提醒,使想起”;recover“恢復(fù)”;recall“使想起,回想,召回”;根據(jù)句子意思可知,答案選D。
【典例2】 Larry works with Transport Drivers, Inc. One morning in 2009, Larry was________along 165 north after delivering to one of his customers. (2016年全國卷I,完形填空)
A. walking
B. touring
C. traveling
D. rushing
解析:根據(jù)文意可知,Larry在運輸公司工作,在2009年的一個早上,Larry 正沿著165公路向北行駛著。tour“旅行,巡回演出”;travel“旅行,行駛”,根據(jù)題意可知,答案應(yīng)該選C。
三、考查動詞的熟詞生義和一詞多義
從近三年的高考真題來看,高考命題非常重視對動詞的熟詞生義和一詞多義的考查,這種現(xiàn)象多出現(xiàn)在完形和閱讀中。有些考生不懂這些熟詞的“新含義”,而無法正確理解文章或題干的含義,因此丟分。
【典例1】They had begun to integrate (融合)the kinds of play and teamwork they had ________the day before into their game.(2015年全國卷II,完形填空)
A. seen
B. know
C. heard
D. read
解析:A。see常見的含義是“看見”,根據(jù)本空前后的意思可知,這里的含義應(yīng)是“領(lǐng)會,理解”。如:It shows that your child hasnt seen the point of the story.這表明你的孩子還沒有領(lǐng)會故事的意思。此外,see 還有“認(rèn)為,見證,參觀”等含義。
【典例2】Then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. (2016年全國卷II,任務(wù)型閱讀)
解析:translate 常見含義是“翻譯”,但在這個句子里是“轉(zhuǎn)變,轉(zhuǎn)化”的意思。再如:Your decision must be translated into specific, concrete actions. 你的決定必須轉(zhuǎn)化為具體明確的行動。此外,translate 還有“理解, 解釋”的含義。
【典例3】 During the war, my husband was stationed at an army camp in a desert in California. (2016年浙江卷,完形填空)
解析:station常見的意思是“車站”,在本句中的新義是“駐扎”。
四、考查不同動詞構(gòu)成的動詞短語的辨析
動詞短語在歷年高考題中所占比例也很大,主要出現(xiàn)在完形填空題中,四個選項是四個不同的動詞短語,以此來考查考生在語境中對動詞短語意義的理解和運用能力。
【典例1】Once fire and emergency people arrived, Larry and the other man 56 and let them go to work.(2016年全國卷I,完形填空)

解析:根據(jù)上下文可知,作者不得不面對這一挑戰(zhàn),故答案選B。come up with“提出”;face up to“勇敢面對”;look forward to“盼望,期望”;step away from“遠(yuǎn)離”。
五、考查同根動詞短語的辨析
對同根動詞短語辨析的考查,也多在完形填空題中進(jìn)行考查。根據(jù)上下文和語境來確定答案。這要求學(xué)生對同根動詞所構(gòu)成的動詞短語要有精準(zhǔn)的掌握。
【典例】The man who had his bright lights on ________and told Larry he had made an emergency call.(2016年全國卷I,完形填空)
A. came down

七、考查動詞短語中的介詞或副詞的搭配
動詞與介詞或副詞構(gòu)成的短語也是高考中的主要考點,這類題多在完形填空題、語法填空題和短文改錯題中進(jìn)行考查。學(xué)生在日常的學(xué)習(xí)中,要多對包含有介詞或副詞的動詞短語進(jìn)行歸納記憶。
【典例1】My uncle says that he never dreams becoming rich in a short period of time.(2016 年全國卷,短文改錯)
解析:dream of/about doing sth“夢想做某事”,故在dreams后加of/about。
【典例2】We tend to have a better memory for things that excite our senses or appeal ________our emotions than for straight facts. (2015年浙江卷)
解析:appeal to“對……有吸引力,對……有感染力”,固定搭配。故答案填to。
