"I felt there was a n eed for a book like this, ” she says." I did n ' t want to lecture, but I wan ted other diabetics to know that things get bette whe n we ' re self-c on trolled and do our part in manging the disease. ”But she has n' t always practiced what she teaches .Ih her book,she desert ion that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she receired two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carri ng and sec ond, tests showed that she had diabetes .In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts（甜甜圈）.Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her.Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begir. To follow a bala need diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sideli nes of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “ Everyoody on earth can ask, ‘ why me?' ” about something or other, ” she in sits. " It does n ' t to any good.No one is immune（免疫的）toheartache pain, and disappointrrents.Sometimnes we can make things better by helping others. I ' ve come to realize the imporamce of that as I ' ve grown up this second time I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”61.Why did Mary feel regretful?A.She did n' t achieve her ambiti on.B.She did n' t take care of her mother.C.She did n' t complete her high school.D.She didn' t follow her mother ' s advice.62.We can know that before 1995 Mary ______________ .A.had two books publishedB.received many career awardsC.k new now to use a omputerD.supported the JDRFby writ ing63.Mary' s second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her ______________________ .A.living with diabetesB.successful show bus in essC.service for an orga ni zati onD.remembra nee of her mothrn.64.Whe n Mary received the life-cha nging n ews, she _________________A.lost con trol of herselfB.bega n a bala need dietC.tried to get a treatme ntD.behaved in an adult way65.What can we know from the last paragraph?A.Mary feels pity for herself.B.Mary has recovered from her disease.C.Mary wants to help others as much as possible.D.Mary determ ines to go back to the dance flear.CPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions —and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, Un iversity of Glasgow researcher, said that rather tha n sca nning evenly （均匀地）across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.“ We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect （忽略）the mouth. ”Accord ing to Jack and her colleagues. the discovery shows that huma n com munin ati on of emation is more complex than. Previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that bad been con sidered uni versally recog ni zable cannot be used to reliably con vey emoti on in cross-cultural situati ons.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories:happy, said, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressi ons using their particular eye moveme nt strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made sig ni fica ntly more errors tha n did Westemers. “ The cultural differe nee in eye moveme nts thatthey show is probably a reflect ion ” cultural differe nee in facial expressi ons, Jack said. “ Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to cohvey emoti on, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less. ”In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signts of human emoti on .From here on, exam ining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of hum emotion.Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emoti ons across,Eastermers and Westemers will find themselves lost in tran slati on.66.Whe discovery shows that Westerners _______________ .,A.pay equal atte nti on to the eyes and the mouthB.con sider facial expressi ons uni versally reliableC.observe the eyes and he mouth in differe nt waysD.have more difficulty in recog nizing facial expressi ons67.What were the people asked to do in the study?A.To make a face at each other.B.To get their faces impressive.C.To classify some face pictures.D.To observe the researchers faces.68.What does the un derli ned word they in Paragraph 6 refer to?A.The participa nts in the study.B.The researchers of the study.C.The errors made duri ng the study.D.The data collected form the study.69.ln comparis on with Wester ners. Easterners are likely to _______________ .A.do tran slati on more successfullyB.study the mouth more freque ntlyC.exami ne the eyes more atte ntivelyD.read facial expressi ons more carectyly7O.What can be the best title for the passage?A.The Eye as the Win dow to the SoulB.Cultural Differe nces in Readi ng Emoti onsC.Effective Methods to Develop Social SkillsD.How to In crease Cross-cultural Un dersta ndingPart IV Writ in g(45 marks)Sectio n A(10 marks)Erection s:Read the follow ing passage. Fill in the nu mbered bla nks by using the in formati on from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS FOR each an swer.An appre nticeship is a form of on-the-job trai ning that comb ines workplace experie nee and classroom lea nin g. It can last any where from one to six years, but four years is typical for most. An apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journ eyma n —some one who has done the job for many years. The rest of the apprentice ' time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requires. Being an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.One of the adva ntages of appre nticeship is that it does not cost appre ntices anything. The compa nies that hire them pay for school. What 'more, it offers appre ntices an earn while you learn ” opport uni ty. They usually start out at half the pay of a journ eyma n, and the pay in creases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies. Near the end of the appre nticeship, their wages are usually 90 perce nt of what a journ eyma n would receive. Appre nticeship also pays off for employers. It can offer employers a pool of well-tra ined workers to draw fromDespite the advantages, apprentices are usully required to work during the day and phend classes at night ,which leaves little time for anything else. Sometimes, they might be laid off (下岗)if bus in ess for the employers is slow.Once thery have completed the qpprouiceship and become journeymen, they receive a n atio nally recog ni zed and portable certificatio n and their pay also in creases aga in. Some journ eyme n con ti nue employme nt with the compa nies they appre nticed with; others go on to differe nt compa nies or become self-employed con tractors.z ------------------------------------------ 1on-the'job train in g corn b i n ing workplace experi ence and 72• _73 of the time in a workplace: learning the practical $kilh •诞restMthu ttme in aclasirooni: learning the 74 akilhSection B (10 marks)Directio n: Read the followi ng passage.

M: Flowers? No! We just bought her flowers for the Mother’s day. How about a nice box of chocolate?
W: She’s trying to lose weight these days, doesn’t she?
第八题选择B。这题设计从口语语境角度看稍有新意，并且考到了blocks街区这个是用场景词汇。现在的听力录音不再是读台词般一成不变，而是模仿自然口语交流状况，出现大量语气词和口误，然后自我修复，从而揭示观点态度和重要细节信息，对话中的“It’s 2, oh no, 3 blocks from here…”就属这个范畴。考生记住，录音者口误然后马上自我更正，属于明显的语音提示，必有细节考点出现。
介于此，笔者斗胆有感而发，高考听力部分的命题应当借鉴大学四六级的听力部分的思路，向国际标准英语评测体系雅思和托福考试看齐，大胆尝试，突出检验考生英语听力信息处理能力、口语表达水平和与书面表达的整合的综合运用能力，二广大基础中小学要加大对学生英语听说能力培训的软硬件投入，重视学生和英语口语水平和测试能力齐头并进发展，而不是明改革暗守旧，新瓶装旧酒，换汤不换药，以免让兄弟省份教育界资深人士和专家学者耻笑。
6. What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?
A. Teacher and student. B. Classmates. C. Doctor and patient.
第六题选B。两人谈论邀请和考试，这样的场景明显定位到同学关系。
《牛津高中英语》教材的大胆使用，应当在几年内使湖南中学生的听说、词汇运用能力有质的飞跃。但2010年高考听力命题思路与原版教材的升级背道而驰。“中国基础中学教育向以高考为纲、莘莘学子一考定乾坤”的教育现状为不争的事实，与其否认不如正视和面对，通过符合国际英语教育和阶段性评价测试的先进理念指导高考命题，进而带动和促进基础中学英语教育水平向着科学、务实、高效、实用的正确方向发展，应该是当务之急。听力题目的设计命题应当走在时代的前沿，随着整体英语水平的提升而适当提高难度系数，才能使英语作为交流工具的功能进一步凸显，但是为了一味求稳，为了所谓的公平，照顾“后进”，使高考听力命题不是与时俱进而是因循守旧，这种“不患贫患不均”的心态可以说是历史的倒退，不但明显对英语水平较高的考生不利，而且从根本上违背了高考选拔人才的宗旨，是新的层面上的一种不公和偏颇。

Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course, " she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom, "I don't know how to use a computer, " she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes （糖尿病）. All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation （JDRF）, an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this, " she says. "I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts （甜甜圈）. Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up—again—and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me? ' about something or other, " she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune （免疫的） to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."(1) Why did Mary feel regretful?A. She didn't achieve her ambition.B. She didn't take care of her mother.C. She didn't complete her high school.D. She didn't follow her mother's advice.(2) We can know that before 1995 Mary.A. had two books publishedB. received many career awardsC. knew how to use a computerD. supported the JDRF by writing(3) Mary's second book [i]Growing Up Again[/i] is mainly about her.A. living with diabetesB. successful show businessC. service for an organizationD. remembrance of her mother(4) When Mary received the life-changing news, she.A. lost control of herselfB. began a balanced dietC. tried to get a treatmentD. behaved in an adult way(5) What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Mary feels pity for herself.B. Mary has recovered from her disease.C. Mary wants to help others as much as possible.D. Mary determines to go back to the dance floor.20、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖南卷（C篇）第66~70题2017~2018学年陕西西安碑林区西安交通大学附属中学高一下学期期末第31~35题7.5分2020年天津和平区天津市耀华中学高三二模（C篇）第45~49题12.5分(每题2.5分)2016~2017学年5月天津南开区天津市南开中学高三下学期月考模拟考试第51~55题12.5分People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions — and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scan evenly（均匀的） across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes."We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions, " Jack said. "Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect （忽略） the mouth."According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. "The cultural difference in eye movements that TAL#NBSP they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions, " Jack said. "Our data suggests that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less."In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.(1) The discovery shows that Westerners.A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB. consider facial expressions universally reliableC. observe the eyes and the mouth in different waysD. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions(2) What were the people asked to do in the study?A. To make a face at each other.B. To get their faces impressive.C. To classify some face pictures.D. To observe the researchers' faces.(3) What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. The participants in the study.B. The researchers of the study.C. The errors made during the study.D. The data collected from the study.(4) In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to.A. do translation more successfullyB. study the mouth more frequentlyC. examine the eyes more attentivelyD. read facial expressions more correctly(5) What can be the best title for the passage?A. The Eye as the Window to the SoulB. Cultural Differences in Reading EmotionsC. Effective Methods to Develop Social SkillsD. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding21、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖南卷（D篇）第71~80题Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.An apprenticeship is a form of on-the-job training that combines workplace experience and classroom learning. It can last anywhere from one to six years, but four years is typical for most. An apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeyman — someone who has done the job for many years. The rest of the apprentice's time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requires. Being an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.One of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anything. The companies that hire them pay for school. What's more, it offers apprentices an "earn while you learn" opportunity. They usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman, and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies. Near the end of the apprenticeship, their wages are usually 90 percent of what a journeyman would receive. Apprenticeship also pays off for employers. It can offer employers a pool of well-trained workers to draw from.Despite the advantages, apprentices are usually required to work during the day and attend classes at night, which leaves little time for anything else. Sometimes, they might be laid off （下岗） if business for the employers is slow.Once they have completed the apprenticeship and become journeymen, they receive a nationally recognized and portable certification and their pay also increases again. Some journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with; others go onto different companies or become self-employed contractors.五、阅读表达（每小题2分，共10分）22、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖南卷第81~84题Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Secret SantasOn Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but that's all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says."It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous （匿名的） basis, " says Linda. "It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays."Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a member of the American Women's Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service.To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home."The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys, " she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list — one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest. "I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this, " says Linda. "Pay attention to what's going on in your own backyard — no matter where you live."The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous.(1) What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have? （No more than 5 words）(2) Why did Linda join the American Women's Club of Toronto? （No more than 10 words）(3) Why did Linda ask for a second wish list? （No more than 15 words）(4) What kind of people does "secret Santas" in the passage refer to? （No more than 12 words）六、书面表达（共25分）23、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖南卷第85题假设你和几位同学成立了一个英语俱乐部，开展了为期两个月的活动。

Universities when they were examining the genetic relationship between the ancient woolly mammoth and mastodon to modern elephant ---the Asian elephant ,African forest elephant, and African savanna elephant.Once they obtained DNA sequences(序列)from two fossils（化石）,mammoths and mastodons, the team compared them with DNA form modern elephants. They found to their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths.The scientists used detailed analysis to prove that the Africa savanna elephant and Africa forest elephant have been dishnet species for several million years. The divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths. This result amazed all the scientists.There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species, but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species.Previously, many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were two populations of the same species, despite the elephants significant size differences. The savanna elephant has an average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder height of 2.5 metres. The savanna elephant weighs between six and seven tons, roughly double the weight of the forest elephant. But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species. However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA.Alfr ed Roca, assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Winois, said, “We now have to treat the forest and savan elephants as two ,diffcrent units for conversation purposes.Since 1950,all African elephants have been conserved as one species . Now that we know the forest and savana elephants are to very distinetive animals,the forest elephant should become a bigger priority(优先) for convervation purposes.”66.One of the fossils studied by the researchers is that of .

First, she had lost the baby she was carring and second, tests showed that she had diabetes.In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts(甜甜圈).Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up-again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her.Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begir. To follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity.“Everyoody on earth can ask,‘why me?’”about something or other,”she insits.“It doesn’t to any good.No one is immune(免疫的)toheartache pain, and disappointrrents.Sometimnes we can make things better by helping others. I’ve come to realize the imporamce of that as I’ve grown up this second time I want to speak out and be as helpful asI can be.”61.Why did Mary feel regretful?A.She didn’t achieve her ambition.B.She didn’t take care of her mother.C.She didn’t complete her high school.D.She didn’t follow her mother’s advice.62.We can know that before 1995 Mary .A.had two books publishedB.received many career awardsC.knew now to use a omputerD.supported the JDRFby writing63.Mary’s second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her .A.living with diabetesB.successful show businessC.service for an organizationD.remembrance of her mothrn.64.When Mary received the life-changing news, she .A.lost control of herselfB.began a balanced dietC.tried to get a treatmentD.behaved in an adult way65.What can we know from the last paragraph?A.Mary feels pity for herself.B.Mary has recovered from her disease.C.Mary wants to help others as much as possible.D.Mary determines to go back to the dance flear.CPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions－and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly（均匀地）across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.“We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,”Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect（忽略）the mouth.”According to Jack and her colleagues. the discovery shows that human communination of emation is more complex than. Previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that bad been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories:happy, said, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westemers. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection ”cultural difference in facial expressions, Jack said.“Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to cohvey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signts of human emotion.From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of hum emotion.Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across,Eastermers and Westemers will find themselves lost in translation.66.Whe discovery shows that Westerners .,A.pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB.consider facial expressions universally reliableC.observe the eyes and he mouth in different waysD.have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions67.What were the people asked to do in the study?A.To make a face at each other.B.To get their faces impressive.C.To classify some face pictures.D.To observe the researchers faces.68.What does the underlined word they in Paragraph 6 refer to?A.The participants in the study.B.The researchers of the study.C.The errors made during the study.D.The data collected form the study.69.In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to .A.do translation more successfullyB.study the mouth more frequentlyC.examine the eyes more attentivelyD.read facial expressions more carectyly70.What can be the best title for the passage?A.The Eye as the Window to the SoulB.Cultural Differences in Reading EmotionsC.Effective Methods to Develop Social SkillsD.How to Increase Cross-cultural UnderstandingPart ⅣWriting(45 marks)Section A(10 marks)Erections:Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS FOR each answer.An apprenticeship is a form of on-the-job training that combines workplace experience and classroom leaning. It can last anywhere from one to six years, but four years is typical for most. An apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeyman—someone who has done the job for many years. The rest of the apprentice’s time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requires. Being an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.One of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anything. The companies that hire them pay for school. What’s more, it offers apprentices an “earn while you learn” opportunity. They usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman, and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies. Near the end of the apprenticeship, their wages are usually 90 percent of what a journeyman would receive. Apprenticeship also pays off for employers. It can offer employers a pool of well-trained workers to draw from Despite the advantages, apprentices are usully required to work during the day and phend classes at night ,which leaves little time for anything else. Sometimes, they might be laid off （下岗）if business for the employers is slow.Once thery have completed the qpprouiceship and become journeymen, they receive a nationally recognized and portable certification and their pay also increases again. Some journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with; others go on to different companies or become self-employed contractors.Section B (10 marks)Direction: Read the following passage.

其中语言知识部分，15道单项选择题侧重动词和句法；动词方面，考查了动词时态、语态、语气、主谓一致、非谓语动词、情态动词，可谓是涉及了动词方方面面的语法知识。

句法方面，考查了强调句型、定语从句、状语从句和名词性从句，考查面也很广。

完形填空第一节全部考查实词，第二节几乎全部考查虚词。

阅读理解题应用文一篇，说明文两篇，阅读量比往年小，且试题以细节理解题为主。

写作部分的阅读填空题难度与去年持平，但阅读简答题尽管选材比去年容易，但答题难度大于去年。

书面表达为开放性作文，为城乡学生均熟悉的联系学生实际的话题，让学生有话可写。

总的来说，整套试卷的难度小于去年，属偏易范畴。

（湖南卷听力解析）2010年高考新鲜出炉，新课改祭出的全新湖南英语高考备受关注。

由于新课改题型大幅改革，加上高校扩招等缘故，今年湖南卷英语考试难度系数有所下降，尤其新题型设计难度不大，语法题严格按照湖南考纲模版命题，有些单项填空相当简单，题命题设计缺乏亮点，乏善可陈，诚然让作为新东方高考珠江老师的我们感到有点失望。

但为了保证试题改革试成功，避免区分度波动太大，这样的“保守”或有求稳之嫌，无可厚非。

根据高考改革的设计初衷，第一个题型听力部分可谓是大刀阔斧的第一刀，短对话被取消，考察六个长对话，共15个选择题，填空题增加到五个。

长对话的增多、主观试题听写填空的分值比例增加，理论上势必导致听力部分更加注重对考生口语和书面表达输出水平、和在听说环境中对多种细节的处理加工能力的考察，难度会有所上升，对英语实际运用能力较差的考生不利，但笔者实际深入感受了今年的听力命题后，发现听力难度不升反降，语音为纯正美语，语速为140词每分钟，对话部分的语言设计略显沉闷，对话句型老套，对话情节了无新意，没有完全达到再现西方社会英语地道文化语境的真实效果，也没有出现较难的听力特词汇以及偏难怪的习语俚语；前面的四个长对话与以前的短对话无异，信息量并未增加，让人有“虚晃一枪”的感觉；听力填空题的题材与05年湖南卷填空题的电话自动应答雷同，老调重弹，缺乏新意。
