2020年高考英语语法专项突破训练专题01-冠词(含答案)
专题一冠词重难点分析冠词是一种虚词，没有词义，不能单独使用，放在名词的前面，帮助说明名词的含义。
冠词主要分为定冠词、不定冠词和零冠词。
历年高考试题对冠词的考查涉及到冠词的位置、不定冠词、定冠词、零冠词及固定搭配中的冠词等各个方面。
下面我们以表格的形式对前四个方面进行梳理总结。
一、冠词的位置考点示例1 such/what/many/rather/quite + a(n) +形容词+单数可数名词quite a small house, such a little boy2 how/however/so/too/as/that/this+形容词+a(n) +单数可数名词so nice a girl3 both/all/half/twice/double + the+名词twice the size of the room4 half a(n)或a half+单数可数名词half an hour / a half hour二、不定冠词考点示例1 表示泛指，与any同义 A square has four sides. 正方形有四边。
2 表示数量“一”，与one同义，但其数的概念不如one强烈He will be back in a week. 一周后，他就会回来了。
3 表示一类人或东西，与the same同义Bird of a feather flock together. 物以类聚，人以群分。
4 表示“每一个”，与every, each, per同义I visit my father once a month. 我一个月见一次我爸爸。
5 表示“某一”，与a certain同义 A Mr. Smith is waiting to see you. 一位斯密斯先生在等着要见你。
6 表示“像……似的”，与like同义He is a Lei Feng in our class. 他是我们班上的雷锋。
7 用在某些物质名词前表示“一种、一阵、一份或一场”等We had a heavy rain last night. 我们昨晚遇到了一场大雨。

怎样突破高考英语单项选择题
怎样突破高考英语单项选择题每年高考题中有很多学生都在单选上失分过多，单选成了学生的一大难点，因为单选融合各种语法项目，真可谓是“步步有陷阱”。
那么，做单选题究竟有没有方法和路径呢？《学习科学》高效学习法邱老师告诉大家单选是有技巧的，下面，我们就介绍一些做单选题的思路和方法，供大家参考。
（一）完整把握语境法就是把题干语句或语段中所包涵的人物、场合、时间、地点等种种因素全都还原出来，找出答题的根据。
语境是指一定的语言环境。
单选题所给的四个答案选项中往往不止一个答案在语法上是正确的，但只有一个答案符合试题所给的语境。
能不能看破这个迷津，既取决于我们的理解能力，同时也与我们的文学修养有关。
单项填空题的考查目的就是考查学生在特定语境中准确运用语法知识的能力。
好的考题中的语境设置往往十分自然、巧妙，它要求我们选择的不只是正确答案，而是最佳答案，因为语法上正确的答案不一定是实际生活交际中最得体、最合适、最佳的答案。
因此我们做题时，一定要找出字里行间中的隐含信息，瞻前顾后，通盘考虑，准确地把握语境内涵，有针对性地分析语法成分，才能避免出错。
例题1：— Can I speak to Mr. Wang, please?— ________A. Who are you?B. I’m Wang.C. Speaking.D. Are you John?答案：C。
这道题并没有单纯考查语法知识，或者说如果单纯从语法角度看，四个答案都不失为正确答案。
之所以选择答案C，是因为该题考查的是我们能否从语用的角度判断出这是一个电话对话这样一个具体语境，即：Speaking 实际上是This is Wang Speaking 的简略说法。
（二）剖析题干法剖析题干法是指准确把握题干的主旨大意，揣摩出命题人想考查哪个或哪些语法或词语知识，综合利用题干中的已知信息，由已知信息判断出语句空缺处隐藏的正确词语，这就要求我们要有敏锐的观察力和细致的分析问题的能力。
高考英语专题突破阅读理解限时精练1.doc
阅读理解限时训练与解析A（5minutes）I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed（解散）. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized（强调）the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating （欺骗）themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously（认真地）about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I trie d to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued（继续）to believe that I had cheated on the test.1. The story took place（发生）exactly ____ .A. in the teacher’s officeB. in an exam roomC. in the schoolD. in the language lab2. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____ .A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her ownD. her own had been taken away by someone3.

The boy knew everything ____ .A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the roomB（7minutes）Some kids start to drink alcohol (酒精) at a young age. They think it is part of becoming an adult. They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it. They feel it is not as bad as taking drugs (毒品). It is easy for kids to get liquor （酒精饮料）by using fake identification (伪造证件).Parents may start to notice a change in their child’s behavior if the child starts drinking. Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do. They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things. They act moody (喜怒无常) and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits.Parents need to stay involved (牵涉) in their kids’ lives. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any changes.Parents can be the best protection. Children who get a lot of love can feel good about themselves. It helps them resist（抵抗）doing bad things even when other kids are doing them. Parents can also help set a good example by not drinking and driving. They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows.Give the children good ideas on how to say “no” to drinking, even when they are at a party. Try not to overreact or panic (惊慌) if the child tries alcohol. How you handle it can affect their attitude. It may be helpful to talk to other parents about setting up curfews (宵禁令) and rules about parties or other events.1. Which of the following is NOT the reason why some kids have an early start of drinking?A. They want to show their maturity (成熟) by drinking alcohol.B.

Teen education.C.Teen drinkingD. Parents’ worries.C（6minutes）Everyday we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat（闲谈）with friends—you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout of appearing to force yourself. Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease（轻松）but the situation is somewhat（一点儿）different from that of anordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.1.When you speak to the class, you should speak ________.A．as loudly as possible B．in a low voiceC．loudly D．forcefullyually, when you speak to the class, the class is __________.A.noisy B．quiet C．having a rest D．serious3.The situation in the class is ________ that in your house.A．not very different from B．sometimes the same asC.．sometimes not the same as D．not the same as4.

Instead, we will buy and read books using computers, which will keep many different books in them at the same time．We won’t need to turn lots of pages and paper will be saved．Computerized (计算机化的) books will be used more and more．While many people say it is a pleasure to go into shops and look at things you want to buy．It is also unlikely that many people will want to read large texts on our computers. Because paper books will perhaps be more friendly．Maybe computers won’t change these two habits．1.Which is the main idea of this passage?A. People like going shoppingB. Reading books is importantC.

This year's attempt to influence the skies took place in Sao Pablo by a party's official sponsor, Skoal, a Brazilian beer brand. "The fun stops when it rains," says Pedro Ada my, Skoal's marketing director. So do beer sales.An airplane painted with Skoal's logo sprayed (喷洒) water droplets into clouds to make rain fall before the clouds reached the city. According to its YouTube video that has been viewed 12 million times, it is a "mission worthy of science fiction".Whether it's science or fiction is up for debate. The use of cloud-seeding to increase rainfall dates back to the 1940s. But the United States government stopped funding it in the 1980s due to a lack of" scientific proof of the effectiveness of intentional weather change", according to the National Research Council. A new paper based on experiments in Idaho found that seeding clouds with silver iodide increased snowfall on three occasions, but the authors say that more research is needed to find out if it can reliably promote precipitation (降水), Pablo Tartar, a Brazilian physicist, says flatly that cloud-seeding is "useless".Still, governments and firms in many countries use the technology. Sao Pablo's water company has signed million dollar contracts with ModClima to bring rain, most recently during a drought in 2014-15. Although cloud-seeding normally uses a chemical such as silver iodide to provide a surface around which water or ice droplets form, ModClima says it has invented an "experimental" method that uses water alone.Carnival-goers cheered when the first two days were cloudy but dry. Many shared Skol's video. But at around 5pm on February 24th, the sky darkened and rain poured down. Celebrants at one block party left the Skol stands and rushed to buy umbrellas and plastic rain capes.2．Why did Skol support cloud-seeding?A．To increase rainfall.B．To promote its beer sales.C．To provide evidence for a research.D．To highlight the theme of the Carnival.3．Which is Artaxo's attitude toward cloud-seeding?A．Objective.B．Doubtful.C．Conservative.D．Negative.4．Why was the US government no longer in favor of cloud-seeding?A．Its outcome couldn't be proved.B．It worked in limited situations.C．It needed more field researches.D．It used an un-ecofriendly chemical.5．What is the best title of the text?A．Could rain ruin fun?B．How do we change weather?C．Could we rely on intentional rain?D．How do we avoid cloud-seeding pollution?6．阅读理解。

选择题答题秘籍高考英语选择题满分秘诀
选择题答题秘笈1.标准化试题的漏洞除了用了知识点之外，用选择题本身固有漏洞做题。
大家记住一点，所有选择题，题目或者答案必然存在做题暗示点。
因为首先我们必须得承认，这题能做，只要题能做，必须要有暗示。
1）有选项。
利用选项之间的关系，我们可以判断答案是选或不选。
如两个选项意思完全相反，则必有正确答案。
2）答案只有一个。
大家都有这个经验，当时不明白什么道理，但是看到答案就能明白。
由此选项将产生暗示3）题目暗示。
选择题的题目必须得说清楚。
大家在审题过程中，是必须要用到有效的讯息的，题目本身就给出了暗示。
4）利用干扰选项做题。
选择题除了正确答案外，其他的都是干扰选项，除非是乱出的选项，否则都是可以利用选项的干扰性做题。
一般出题者不会随意出个选项，总是和正确答案有点关系，或者是可能出错的结果，我们就可以借助这个命题过程得出正确的结论。
5）选择题只管结果，不管中间过程，因此在解题过程中可以大胆的简化中间过程。
6）选择题必须考察课本知识，做题过程中，可以判断和课本哪个知识相关？那个选项与这个知识点无关的可立即排除。
因此联系课本知识点做题。
7）选项是最佳的（语言类考试），选项是比出来的。
8）选择题必须保证考生在有限时间内可以做出来的，因此当大家花很多时间想不对的时候，说明思路错了。
选择题必须是由一个简单的思路构成的。
2.使用准则平时训练时也讲到一些技巧，但是学生并不知道在什么情况下用什么技巧，因此这里给大家带来的管卫东选择题考试技术将明确的告诉大家，第一，技巧是什么，第二，什么状态下用（要么第一遍做题的时候使用，或者做不下的时候用）。
先说什么时候用，大家平时做的熟的题、有把握能够快速做出来的时候，就按照自己的方法做。
如果没思路、做不下去，或者发现做的时候需要大量计算的时候，可以明确的告诉自己，你的方向错了，可以换一种思路了。
附英语选择题答题逻辑：高考倒计时100 天，单词量不够？语法混乱？英语阅读能力低下？考不了高分？很多英语考的不好的同学已经开始着急了。
高考英语语法词汇专项突破：01表解名词性从句+巩固练习+答案与解析
高考英语语法词汇专项突破：01表解名词性从句+巩固练习+答案与解析【考题呈现】【考例1】（2022年浙江1月）Cobb, for her party, started to ask conference organizers who invited her to speak ______ she could do so remotely.答案与解析：if/whether。
考查名词性从句之宾语从句。
明显ask后面消灭了一个宾语从句，宾语从句句意不完整，whether/if“是否”符合语境，故填whether或if。
句意：对于她的出席，Cobb开头询问邀请她的组织者是否可以远程进行。
【考例2】（2021.6新高考1卷）Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatle's song "The答案与解析：What。
考查名词性从句之主语从句。
分析题目，空格处无提示词。
分子句子结构可知，_____is so breathing about the experience 作is 的主语，为主语从句。
从句中缺少主语，指代事情；且空格位于句首。
故填What。
【考例3】（2021.3 天津卷）A. whetherB. whyC. whatD. when答案与解析：B。
考查引导表语从句连接词词义辨析。
A. whether是否；B.why为什么；C. what什么；D.when什么时间，当……的时候。
分析成分结构句子，该空需要一个表语从句的连接词。
再结合句意可知，应当是伴侣们不明白Lily 为什么有这么多疯狂的想法。
所以本句为why引导的表语从句。
故选：B。
句意：令Lily的伴侣们感到困扰的是她为什么总是有这么多疯狂的想法。
【考例4】（2021年北京卷）The poor woman wasn't able to give him any information about ________ she lived．答案与解析：where。
3月高考英语考前突破 阅读理解能力 社会生活 加拿大将终结贷款换永久居留权的政策(1)
加拿大将终结贷款换永久居留权的政策Wealthy Chinese looking for an escape route from their native land -- and there are hundreds of thousands in this class -- received bad news last week: the Canadian government decide d to terminate a deal that essentially allowed foreign millionaires to loan 800,000 Canadian dollars (or a little less than $730,000) to the Canadian state for five years in exchange for permanent residency.在当下中国的富豪阶层中存在着千千万万寻求移民的富人们——但是他们得注意了，坏消息表明，加拿大政府最近决定终结一项外国百万富翁通过在5年中不间断地为加拿大本国提供80万加元（略微比73万美元少一点点）的贷款而换取永久居留权的政策。
Ottawa's cancellation of the immigrant-investor program means that 65,000 pending （未决定的） applications will be left unprocessed. The majority of these unprocessed visa appeals are from mainland Chinese.So what's a poor rich Chinese to do now? The China Daily, the government's English-language mouthpiece（喉舌，代言人）, described Canada's cancelation as "unfair" in a Feb. 17 headline. But immigration agencies in Beijing, with their plush offices in the central business district, are hawking plenty of alternatives.One option lies just south of the Canadian border. Chinese who invest as little as $500,000 and employ 10 people in a rural or struggling part of the US can secure EB-5 investor visa, which can lead to green cards. Two major emigration consultancies in Beijing, Globe Visa and Cansine Immigration, are recommending the US now that Canada's immigrant-investor option has shuttered.Then there are the financial laggards of the EU that are so desperate for a bailout that they are basically selling residency to cash-endowed Chinese for as little as $100,000. Count nations like Latvia, Greece, Portugal and Cyprus in this distressed category. With less cash than it takes to buy a tiny apartment in the outskirts of Beijing, Chinese investors can acquire residency in one European locale, as well as eventual freedom to roam most of the E.U. without a visa.Even pricier destinations hold allure（诱惑力）. A Cansine representative noted that Britain is proving fashionable this year, especially as nations like Australia tighten immigration restrictions. Applicants for British permanent residency must invest £1 million ($1.7 million), 80% of which in tr easury bonds and the remainder in either real estate or in a local savings account, according to Cansine. The catch? Program participants must spend at least half the year in Britain; Latvia, by contrast, requires just one day a year in the countr y to maintain residency. "Britain is very popular among our clients," says Cansine's Liu Jianping, "because the process is easy and it takes only a short time to get approval from the British government."There are also the teeny countries that may be hoping to profit from their very nationhood: St. Kitts and Nevis, Vanuatu, Antigua and Barbuda -- all are targeting Chinese investors. Finally, don't forget Canada either. In its latest budget report, Canada's Ministry of Finance noted: "There is also little evidence that immigrant investors as a class are maintaining ties to Canada or making a positive economic contribution to the country." Instead, a new scheme may well require would-be immigrants to fully invest in Canada, as opposed to simply providing a zero-interest loan for five years, as the previous program mandated. "We can still help Chinese get to Canada," says Qu Bo, from the aptly named Go-to-Canada i mmigration agency in Beijing, which is offering lectures on the new Canadian policy this weekend.Still, any emigration involves risks. Among them are shady brokers who operate with little legal oversight. Last year, the US Securities and Exchange Commission busted an EB-5 scheme for investment in a Chicago convention center that the government agency says tried to defraud more than $156 million in investments and fees from 250 people, many of whom were Chinese. Luckily, the investment money had been preserved in escrow. But $11 million in fees vanished -- along with scores of Chinese hopes for resettling in America.。

2022届全国新高考英语题型专项突破(含答案解析)
2022届全国新高考英语题型专项突破一、阅读理解1.The Internet is redrawing the media landscape and will be for decades to come, but traditional media will not be left out of the picture, two journalism professors of University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa argued. Ed Mullins, chairman of the Journalism Department, and Jim Stovall, the founder of Dateline Alabama? the new website of the College of Communication and Information Sciences, agree that the future of the web is still a mystery, but argue that, in the near future, it will serve more as a helpmate to traditional media.“Nobody knows where the web is taking us, but when it comes to journalism, old media will be dominant players in the new media game, ” Mullins believes. “Some rating services report that most Americans go to sites operated by old-line media when looking for news on the web. ”Just as national old media dominate the web at that level, local old media run mostly by newspapers and, to a lesser degree, by television stations, dominate those markets. Is there a pattern here? Yes, say Mullins and Stovall. “At least in the first decade of the web, newspaper companies dominate web journalism, ” Mullins explains. “Why? They specialize in news, and that gives them an advantage. What most readers go to websites for are news and e-mail, a form of person-to- person news, especially in the form of chatting. ”The reason for newspapers’ dominance in web journalism, Stovall points out, is that they have the biggest investment in news. “The Birmingham News, for example, with about 175 positions, has more journalists on its payroll than all of the state’s broadcast, cable, and web—only entities combined. ”(1) What role does the Internet play in journalism according to Paragraph 1?A. It dominates the media market.1/ 14B. It is likely to threaten the future of traditional media.C. It becomes a helpful partner of print media.D. It revolutionizes journalism.(2) The following statements prove that old media still dominate web journalism EXCEPT________.A. people prefer traditional media when looking for newsB. old media have the most important position in local marketsC. newspaper companies have more control in web journalismD. few people go to websites to get news(3) Traditional media dominate web journalism because________.A. news and advertising are their only businessB. they invest more money in newsC. web companies dare not compete with themD. they enjoy privileges in journalism(4) What is the best title for the passage?A. Internet won’t eliminate print mediaB. Internet challenges traditional mediaC. Looking for news on the webD. Journalism should be dominated by web(5) What is the author’s attitude towards the future of traditional media?A. Negative.B. Critical.C. Concerned.D. Optimistic.2.The first newspapers were written by hand and put up on walls in public places. The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC. In the 700’s the world’s first printed newspaper was published. Europe didn’t have a regularly published2/ 14newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany.The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam in 1620. In 1621, an English newspaper was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Courant (《每日新闻》). It came out in March 1702.In 1690, Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston. But not long after it was first published, the government stopped the paper. In 1704, John Campbell started The Boston Newsletter (《波士顿新闻通讯》), the first newspaper published in the American colonies. By 1760, the colonies had more than thirty daily newspapers. There are now about 1, 800 daily papers in the United States.Today, as a group, English language newspapers have the largest circulation (发行量)in the world. But the largest circulation for a newspaper is that of the Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun (《读卖新闻》). It sells more than 10 million copies every day.(1) The first daily newspaper came out in________.A. 59 BCB. 700’sC. 1609D. 1620(2) The first regularly published newspaper in Europe was printed in ________.A. EnglandB. GermanyC. FranceD. Sweden(3) The first printed newspaper in America came out in________.A. WashingtonB. New YorkC. Boston3/ 14D. New Orleans(4) Today there are about ________daily newspapers printed in the United States.A.1, 621B.1, 704C.1, 760D.1, 800(5) Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam.B. English language newspapers sell more than 10 million copies every day.C. Europe didn't have a regularly published newspaper in 1608.D. The first daily English newspaper came out in March.3.As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the formation again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave facts to remember, and told them where to find the formation on the computer. The information was in a specify computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location (位置)better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the4/ 14information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆).According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories；that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.(1) The passage begins with two questions to________.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author’s attitudeC. describe how to use the InternetD. remember how to find the information(2) In transactive memory, people ________.A. keep the memory in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD. remember how to find the information(3) What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s search?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.4.Newspapers are one method of bringing the news to the public. Reporters, photographers, correspondents, and editors are some of the people who create newspapers. They are known as journalists.Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news. They attend meetings.5/ 14They cover events such as court cases, plays, and sporting events. They interview people to get their views about what is going on. Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline. People do not want to read old news. They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens. Reporters sometimes phone or email their notes and quotations (引用语) to the paper from the scene. A reporter in the office then writes the story.A “stringer” is a parttime reporter who works when called upon. A fire might break out in one part of town. An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.Reporters often work with photographers, or photojournalists. Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate (图解) the stories in a newspaper. They have to edit their pictures in time for them to appear with the story.A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge in. Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there. A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news.An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office. Editors prepare the reporters’ stories to be printed in the paper. They decide which story is most important and gets the frontpage headline. They decide which pictures to use. Editors do not often write the news, but they do write editorials (社论) in which they state their views on a topic or an issue.People who work as journalists have some things in common. They are curious, they like to write, and they have a “nose for news”．They can spot news as it happens. They know what people want to read about.(1)The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to________.A. readersB. journalistsC. reporters6/ 14D. stringers(2) A journalist working abroad to report news may be called________.A. a stringerB. a photojournalistC. an editorD. a correspondent(3) According to the passage, both the reporter and the editor________.A. usually work in the officeB. decide which pictures to useC. have the ability to discover newsD. often write editorials for their paper(4) The passage is mainly written to________.A. introduce different posts and duties of journalistsB. describe the characters of journalistsC. explain how the news is collectedD. show how reporters work(5)Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A.B.7/ 14C.D.CP：Central Point P：PointSp：Subpoint (次要点) C：Conclusion参考答案：1.

2月高考英语考前突破 阅读理解能力 文化教育 中国元宵节(1)
中国元宵节The Lantern Festival has been part of Chinese New Year celebrations since the Han Dynasty (206 BC- 221 AD). Usually held on the 15th day of the first month of the lunar calendar, it marks the end of New Year festivities.自汉朝（公元前206年—公元221年）起，元宵节就已成为了中国新年庆祝活动中的一部分了。
一般农历的正月十五为元宵节，这一天也标志着新年庆祝活动的结束。
It is said that the holiday evolved from an ancient Chinese belief that celestial （天上的） spirits cou ld be seen flying about in the light of the first full moon of the lunar calendar. To aid them in their search for the spirits they used torches. These torches gave way to lanterns of every shape, size and colour.The Lantern Festival is also popularly referred to as the Chinese Valentine's Day because in days of old it gave girls and boys a rare chance to go out in the evening and mingle（混合，交往）. Today, lantern festivals are held each year in China, Ho ng Kong, Singapore and Taiwan to mark the end of Chinese New Year celebrations. Competitions are held to select the best lanterns.The lanternsThe lantern s come in all shapes and sizes. Some are created in the form of animals, insects, flowers, pe ople or even machines or buildings. Others depict scenes from popular stories teaching filial piety and traditional values. A favourite subject is the zodiac animal of the year - which in 2014 will be the horse.Lantern riddles (cai deng mi)Part of the lantern festival tradition involves a game to guess riddles attached to the lanterns. In the old days the riddles were obscure literary allusions to the Chinese classics and so were mainly the preserve of the educated classes.Special foodsLike most Chinese festivals, the Lantern Festival has it s own special food, called "tang yuan". These are round, glutinous rice dumplings with sweet or spicy fillings. The dumplings are said to symbolise both the first full moon and family unity and completeness.EntertainmentStilt-walking, drumming and dragon and lion dancing are all traditional forms of festival entertainment. In Asia, it is not uncommon to see processions ofhundred-foot long dragons, lit with flashing eyes and luminous（发光的） bodies, accompanied by pounding drums, cymbals and brass instruments.。

一1.—He must be busy doing his homework right now.—I imagine____.A. thatB. toC. soD. it选C。
I imagine so=I think so,2. Mary had promised to give me a ticket for tomorrow. She failed, ____.A. eitherB. thoughC. butD. too选B。
结合上下文意思我们可以知道本题表示转折关系，先排除A、D；而but为并列连词通常放在句首或句子中间起连接作用。
故选B。
3. When I got to the cinema, the film _____ for five minutes.A. had begunB. has been onC. has begunD. had been on选D。
电影开始了五分钟，for five minutes为一段时间要求谓语动词要用延续性动词，故A和C先排除，而从句的动作发生在主句动作之后。
4.---I wonder why Mr Green hasn’t showed up at the meeting yet.---I’m not sure, but he _______ in a traffic jam driving here.A. could be stuckB. might stuckC. might have been stuckD. must have stuck选C。
表示对过去已经发生事情的推测应该用情态动词的完成时形式，但might的可能性不大；结合上下文的意思可以知道应该用被动形式。
5.We have moved into a four-room flat so far. Our room is between _____.A. Mary’s and Helen’sB. Mary and Helen’sC. Mary and HelenD. Mary’s and Helen选A。
由句子的意思可以知道这里表示两人各自的房间。
6.With the development of science and technology, people’s life _______ inthe past few years.A. improvedB. has improvedC. is improvingD. had improved选B。
根据句子后面的时间状语in the past few years可以知道句子应该使用现在完成时。
7.Wang Wei is one of many Chinese students _______ “on the go’.A. who lives lifeB. who live lifeC. that lives livingD. that live living选B。
“one of +名词/代词“接定语从句时，先行词是前面的名词或代词，而不是one,因此可以排除A和C;再根据live用作及物动词时一般要接同源宾语live (a happy/ sad/poor, etc.) life，因此选B。
其中on the go可以看着是相当于形容词的短语作定语。
8.There are a lot _______ people today than yesterday.A. ofB. moreC. mostD. /选B。
本题容易选A。
因为许多学生很快会联想到a lot of短语。
其实，只需要仔细看完句子就会发现句子的后面有than,暗示要选比较等级，而比较级前面用a lot 来加强语气。
9.The TV set he _________ works well now.A. has repairingB. having repairedC. has been repairedD. has had repaired选D。
本题考查学生综合能力。
首先要知道he________是定语从句，对先行词The TV set进行修饰。
由于the TV set在定语从句中作宾语，所以可以省略关系代词that 或which。
而定语从句中有have sth done结构，即文章的句子为：The TV set that/ which he has had repaired works well now.主句为The TV set works well now.10.Lei Feng is always ready to help others when they are in trouble and he never _______ their request.A. turns upB. turns overC. turns inD. turns down选D。
本题考查短语动词的区别。
turn up的意思是“将音量调高”、“出现，露面“；turn over意思是“打翻，移交；翻身”；而turn in表示“上交”；turn down表示“将音量等调低或拒绝”的意思。
结合上下文的意思应该选D。
11.Nowadays ________ Internet is becoming increasingly popular and new high speed broadband network was recently started.A. a; theB. the; aC. a; aD. the; the选B。
本题主要考查冠词的用法。
Internet为特指对象；而一条高速的新宽带网为泛指，用不定代词a。
12.---Good evening. I _______ to see Miss Mary.---Oh, good evening. I’m sorry, but she is not in.A. cameB. comeC. have comeD. had come选C。
本题主要考查动词时态的用法。
选项A表示过去所发生的事情；B表示经常性或习惯性的动作；C表示目前的情况和影响；D时态不符合对话的时间和语境。
13.The factory produced many famous cars, none of ____ shipped to foreigncountries.A. themB. whichC. itD. what选A。
本题容易误选B。
容易被认为是一个非限制性定语从句。
理由是none后面没有并列连词and, but。
但是，ship在这里是一个及物动词，意思为“运送……到”，也就是说这里的shipped是一个过去分词，后面的部分是一个独立主格结构。
如果在shipped前面加一个was，则应该选B，构成非限制性定语从句。
14. The manager decided to give the job to ____ he believed had a strong sense of duty.A. whoeverB. whomeverC. whoD. those选A。
作宾语从句的主语；he believed可视为插入语。
15. —Tod hadn’t passed the exam and was afraid of being scolded.— _____.A. So it was with JimB. So was Jim, his classmateC. It’s the same with JimD. Neither had Jim, his classmate选A。
So it was with Jim是指上一句的内容也适合另一个人。
如选项C中It’s 改为It was才对。
16.The Indian Ocean tsunami at the end of 2020 is believed _____ more than 160,000 people and made millions homeless, _______ it perhaps the most destroying tsunami in history.A. to kill; makingB. to have killed; makingC. having killed; to makeD. killing; made选B。
本题考查句型结构及非谓语动词的意义。
根据believe句型，believe sb. /sth to be/ to have done可以知道，第一空填to have killed;第二空的非谓语动词表示结果，动词的-ing形式表示事情发展的自然结构，而不定式表示出乎意料的结果。
17. Is it true _____ the rain stops, it will be as hot as in the summer here?A. whenB. that whenC. wheneverD. that选B。
本题考查学生分析句子结构的能力。
It is true that构成一个主语从句，而主语从句内部又有一个以when引导的时间状语从句。
18.Mike, as far as I know, _______ like to play music.A. seemsB. appearsC. feelsD. does选D。
as far as I know为插入语，去掉插入语后，在结合like后面的不定式可以知道like为动词而不是介词，故排除A、B、C。
D项does+动词原形表示强调，意思为“的确，确实”。
19.The time he has devoted in the past years _______ the disable is now considered ________ of great value.A. to help; beingB. to helping; to beC. to help; to beD. helping; being选B。
前一部分考查devote one’s time to doing sth句式。
其中devote的宾语the time在定语从句中提到了前面并省略了；后一部分中的consider的后面接了主语补足语，所以用不定式作补语。
整个句子的意思为：他在过去的十年中用在帮助残疾人身上的时间现在被认为是很有价值。
20._______ different life today is ________ what it was 30 years ago.A. How; fromB. What a; fromC. What; fromD. How; with选A。
