2013年高考英语广东卷试题点评

2013年高考英语广东卷试题点评作者:广州新东方学校优能中学英语教研组来源:《新东方英语·中学版》2013年第12期2013年广东卷完形填空难度适中,文章主要讲的是人和动物对数量的感知能力,即与生俱来对数量变化的敏感度。

但是人与动物的这种能力其实并不是很强,当数量增加时,人和动物就无法察觉了。

下面结合题目分析本次完形填空的特点和应对方式。

重点考查考生对上下文的理解能力,把握文章主旨和段落主旨很重要完形填空重点考查考生对上下文的理解能力,而把握文章的主旨和段落主旨能够有效地帮助考生理解全文,进一步解题。

我们知道,文章主旨一般出现在全文首段或尾段,而段落主旨一般出现在段首。

下面浏览文章,重点查看每段段首。

第一段:前两句对number sense进行了定义:Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. 本段后文出现了experiment和for example等字眼,可知后文是对number sense进行举例阐释。

第二段第一句话为:Another interesting experiment showed a bird's 6 number sense. 从后面的crow (乌鸦)可以看出,后面是在对这个实验进行详述。

而another interesting experiment也说明,第二段延续第一段的主旨,仍在阐释number sense。

第三段前两句话为:How good is a human's number sense. It's not very good. 这说明这一段讲的是人类的number sense为何不够好。

最后一段只有一句话,对人类和动物的number sense进行了总结,得出了人类在这一点上并没有比乌鸦好多少。

FredEpstein ,in his book If I Make It to Five,tells a story he heard fromone of friends about Tom,a four-year-old boy with a cancer in hisback bone.He came through several operations and a lot of pain bymastering his imagination.Tom loved to pretend,and he particularly loved to playsuperheroes ,Dr Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant wayfor his wound mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.The day before his tiring trip to the operating room,Tom wasterribly afraid.”Maybe I could go as Superman ,”he whispered to hismom.Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while.She had avoidedbuying the expensive costume(戏装), but finally she agreed.The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman,showingoff through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to thepeople greeting him along the way.And Tom,with the strength of hisfantasy,successfully made it through the operation.The power of imagination need not be reserved for childrenonly. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things wenever thought possible,to go through those things that seemimpossible,and to achieve what we never believed we could, just asDr.Epstein puts it ,”If you can dream it,you can do it”It doesn…t mean that you should dress as a superhero for younext job interview.But,next time you are texted in a way that seemsimpossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it .Become theperson you need to become to win over your challenge and do it inyour mind first.So,let your imagination run wild,and dare to dream.26.What do we know about Tom?A..He was seriously illB.He was a dishonest boy.C.He was crazy about magicD.He was Dr.Epstein‟s patient27.What can be inferred about Tom‟s mother?A..She was a rich ladyB.She refused Tom‟s requestC.She wanted Tom to be a superheroD.She wanted to get Tom through the pain28.When Tom went for the third operation,he .A.pretended to be painfulB.acted like a superheroC.appeared in poor spiritsD.argued with his mother29.In the last paragraph,you are advised .A.to go through some difficult testsB.to wake up from your wild dreamsC.to become a powerful person in your mindD.to wear expensive clothes for job interviews30.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To tell us an interesting story.B.To help us make right decisions.C.To advise us to care about children.D.To encourage us to use our imagination.BSome people think that success is only for those with talent orthose who grow up in the right family,and others believe that successmostly comes down to luck.I‟m not going to say luck,talent,andcircumstances don‟t come into play because they do.Some people1are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence,and that‟s just the reality of how life is .However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to ger really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it‟ll require even more time,time that most people won‟t pu t in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don‟t enjoy what you do ,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quite well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It‟s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there‟s a huge chance that you‟re wrong anyway.Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you‟re not willing to put in the time and work,don‟t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won‟t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.31. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.A.the reasons for successB.the meaning of successC.the standards of successD.the importance of success32. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.A.being good at somethingB.setting a practical goalC.putting in more timeD.succeeding in life33.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.A.work makes one feel painB.one tends to enjoy his workC.one gives up his work easilyD.it takes a lot of time to succeed34.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A.Successful people like to show their great skills.B.People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C.People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D.It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.35.What is the main theme of the passage?A.Having a goal is vital to success.B.Being good is different from being great.C.One cannot succeed without time and practice.D.Luck,talent and family help to achieve success.COne day, when I was working as a psychologist in England,anadolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He keptwalking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shakingslightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. "This boy has losthis family," he wrote. "He is understandably very sad and refuses totalk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I helphim? There are problems psychology doesn‟t have the answer to, andwhich no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do isto listen openly and sympatheticallyThe first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there,only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behindme. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that heplayed chess with me every Wednesday afternoon一in completesilence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, butI admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed. took the chess board andpieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got achance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But whydid he never look at me?"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," Ithought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Somemonths later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at mesuddenly."Its your turn," he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in schooland joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about hisbiking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university.Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one一without any words一can reach out to another person. All it takes is ahug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.36. When he first met the author, David .A. felt a little excitedB. walked energeticallyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher37.

Her Internet access was locked —remotely —to prevent Internet searches , and her typing style wasanalyzed to make sure she was who she said she was: Did she enterher student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or wasshe slowing down?In the battle against cheating , this is the cutting edge and akey to encourage honesty in the booming field of online education.The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institutionand to online education in general. Only with solid measuresagainst cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show thattheir exams and diplomas are valid —that students haven‟t justsearched the Internet to get the right answers.Although online classes have existed for more than a decade,the concern over cheating has become sharper in the last year withthe growth of "open online courses." Private colleges, publicuniversities and corporations are jumping into the online educationfield, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students,whilealso taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.Aside from the web caners, a number of other hight-tichmethods are becoming increasingly popular among them areprograms t hat check students‟ identities using personal2information,such as the telephone number they once used.Other programs can produce unique exam by drawing on a rage list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test question are answered at the same speed as easy ones, as in many university classes, term papers are scanned ganister some large Internet data banks for cheating.41.Why was Jennifer watched in online exam ?A.To correct her typing mistakes.B.To find her secrets in the room.C.to prevent her form slowing down.D.To keep her from dishonest behaviors.42.

2013高考英语试卷分析

2013高考英语试卷分析

2013高考英语试卷分析(广东卷)今年广东高考英语卷与去年相比,开卷到阅读理解部分都较容易,试题结构与去年基本一致(见下表),应该能让考生轻松进入状态,但是到了作文部分难度骤然增大,或成为拉开分数差距的关键。

专家认为,试题选材地道,贴近生活,贯彻了“新课标”提出的语法教学语境化的理念;命题突出考查语言综合运用能力,以此对2014年高考的备考有重要的指导意义。

2013年高考英语试题结构试卷开篇的两道大题难度合理。

完形填空考查的依然全部是实词,重点考查了词义复现和逻辑推理,其中词义复现题达到了6题,分别是第3、5、7、9、11、15题,全篇无超纲词,也无难题或有歧义的题。

语法填空延续了前两年的体裁,是一篇记叙文,考点传统,没有像去年高考一样出现虚拟语气等难题,4题有提示词,6题无提示词,6题中居然没有考查代词,而代词往往是语法填空的难点,因此拉低了总体难度。

连词考查了3题,其中一题是众考生很熟悉的neith er…nor的搭配,一题为初中就学过的why not句型,还有一题是定语从句的关系代词who,难度都比较低。

今年阅读理解与去年基本保持一致,仍旧覆盖了记叙文、议论文、夹叙夹议及说明文四类,与去年不同的是,去年阅读较多融合了西方文化元素,比如A篇讲述了“Have a nice day”在不同场合下表达的不同情感态度,颇具当地人文色彩。

但是今年的题材没有特别的文化倾向(如下表所示)。

纵观2013年广东英语高考,虽在考点分布上有一定变化,但万变不离其宗。

最令人称道的是今年语篇的选材独具匠心,为广大考生送来了一道充满正能量的“心灵鸡汤”。

2013年广东卷语法填空题选用颇具“正能量”的故事素材,围绕父亲让孩子明白买盐要价格公道的道理娓娓道来,让人明白“勿以善小而不为,勿以恶小而为之”。

其实,语法填空题以彰显社会正能量的文章作为考查素材在考前已有征兆。

比如:2013年广州一模“美国夫妇关爱武汉孤儿”,2013年珠海一模“幸福的内涵”,2012年东莞高三调研考“邻居关爱”。

2013高考广东卷英语答案和解析版

2013年广东高考英语解析Ⅰ语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)【语篇解读】本文在讲述什么是数字感之后重点介绍有关动物也具有数字感的实验,实验结果表明许多动物和人一样具有数字感,且人的这种感知数字变化的能力并不比乌鸦的这种能力强多少。

1.解析由下文的两个实验来看,都是数字的“变化”。

其他三个选项“上升”“样式”“趋势”与文中内容几乎毫无关系。

答案 C2.解析因“实验表明许多动物也跟人类一样具有这种能力”,这是“令人惊讶的”。

其他选项“重要地”“失望地”“幸运地”与上下文内容无联系。

答案 B3.解析结合下句,特别是however可知,上下句的大意应是“如果鸟巢内有四个蛋,你移走一个蛋,这只鸟会没有注意到;然而,如果你移走两个蛋,这只鸟就会离开这里了”。

其他选项“幸存”“关心”“孵化”不合语境。

答案 D4.解析这只鸟“通常”会离开,因为这个具体的例子是用来说明“many birds have good number sense”这个主题的。

“真诚地”“无意地”“故意地”不合语境。

答案 A5.解析这个例子谈到,四个中移走一个余下三个,这只鸟不会注意到;若移走两个,余下两个了,这只鸟就会离开这里了。

这说明这只鸟知道余下两个与余下三个的“差别”。

其余选项“距离”“范围”“间隔”与语境不符。

第一节完型填空Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human beings are born with this ability. 2 , Experiments show that many animas are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 3 . However, if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three.Another interesting experiment showed a bird’s 6 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 . He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 . It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow.How good is a human’s number sense? It’s not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are14 fooled.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15is not much better than a crow’s.1.

So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much 17 too little.”His son looked surprised. “I can understand why shouldn’t pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, 18 not save a bit of money?”“That would be a very 19 (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours,” Nick said.Nick’s guest, 20 had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason a man would sell salt 21 a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect 22 the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”“But such a small thing couldn’t 23 (possible) destroy a village.”“In the beginning, there was only 24 very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always 25 (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today.”第三节阅读理解A.Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,”he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for while. She has avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装), but finally she agreed.The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way. And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the operation.The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to go through those things that seem impossible, and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr. Epstein puts it, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”It doesn’t mean that y ou should dress as a superhero for your next job interview. But, next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first. So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream.26. What do we know about Tom?A. He was seriously ill.B. He was a dishonest boy.C. He was crazy about magic.D. He was Dr. Epstein’s patient.27. What can be inferred about Tom’s mother?A. She was a rich lady.B. She refused Tom’s request.C. She wanted Tom to be a superhero.D. She wanted to get Tom through the pain.28. When Tom went for the third operation, he_________.A. pretended to be painfulB. acted like a superheroC. appeared in poor spiritsD. argued with his mother29. In the last paragraph, you are advised________.A. to go through some difficult testsB. to wake up from your wild dreamsC. to become a powerful person in your mindD. to wear expensive clothes for job interviews30. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To tell us an interesting story.B. To help us make right decisions.C. To advise us to care about children.D. To encourage us to use our imagination.B.Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become rally good at whatever it is you put all that work into.31. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about__________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success32. Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to__________.A. being good at somethingB. setting a practical goalC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life33. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because_____________.A. work makes one feel painB. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed34. What can be infer from Paragraph 4?A. Successful people like to show their great skills.B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.35. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Having a goal is vital to success.B. Being good is different from being great.C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.C.One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England, an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept waling up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can I help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no wards can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon---in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.“It’s your turn,” he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one---without any words---can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.36. When he first met the author, David_________.A. felt a little excitedB. walked energeticallyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher37. As a psychologist, the author __________.A. was ready to listen to DavidB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was able to describe David’s problemD. was sure of handling David’s problem38. David enjoyed being with the author because he____________.A. wanted to ask the author for adviceB. needed to share sorrow with the authorC. liked the children’s drawing in the officeD. beat the author many times in the chess game39. What can be inferred about David?A. He recovered after months of treatment.B. He liked biking before he lost his family.C. He went into university soon after starting to talk.D. He got friends in school before he met the author.40. What made David change?A. His teacher’s help.B. The author’s friendship.C. His exchange of letters with the author.D. The author’s silent communication with him.D.While Jennifer was at home taking an online exam for her business law class, a monitor(监控器) a few hundred miles away was watching her every move.Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer’s Los Angeles apartment, the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved from the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room. Her Internet access was locked---remotely---to prevent Internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was; Did she enter her student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or was she slowing down?In the battle against cheating, this is the cutting edge and a key to encourage honestly in the booming field of on line education. The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institution and to online education in general. Only with solid measures against cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show that their exams and diplomas are valid---that students haven’t searched the Internet to get the right answers.Although online classes have existed for more than a decade, the concern over cheating become sharper in the last year with the growth of “open online courses.” Private colleges, public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students, while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.Aside from the web cameras, a number of other high-tech methods are becoming increasingly popular. Among them areprograms that check student’s identities using personas information, such as the telephone numbers they once used.Other programs can produce unique exams by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at he same speed as easy ones. As in many university classes, term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating.41. Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam?A. To correct her typing mistakes.B. To find her secrets in the roomC. To prevent her from slowing down.D. To keep her from dishonest behaviors42. The underlined expression cutting edge in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______.A. advanced techniqueB. sharpening toolC. effective ruleD. dividing line43. For Internet universities, exams and diplomas will be valid if__________.A. they can attract potential studentsB. they can defeat academic cheatingC. they offer students online helpD. they offer many online courses44. Some programs can find out possible cheaters by_________.A. checking the question answering speedB. producing a large number of questionsC. scanning the Internet test questionsD. giving difficult test questions45. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. The Advantages of Online ExamsB. The High-tech Methods in Online CoursesC. The Fight against Cheating in Online EducationD.

The same man, who dislikes his job in the factory or even in the office, may work hard at the weekend, painting the house or digging the garden.What is the reason, then? In most cases, it is because these people simply do not enjoy thejob they are doing. It does not give them any real satisfaction. It may be quite easy, like making up wooden boxes, but it is very boring. Very often they are doing a job which is just a small part of a much larger one, such as attaching a door handle to a car. But the part they play in actually making the car is so small that they can never say: I have made something!Yet in modern society somebody has to do ordinary jobs such as cleaning streets because this is the way society is organized. No matter how ordinary a job is, it plays a part in society and therefore deserves our due respect. Society cannot function a single day without the “dull and boring” jobs.[写作内容]1. 以约30词概括上文的主要内容。

分析2013年广东高考英语试卷

分析2013年广东高考英语试卷

分析2013年广东高考英语试卷整体2013年广东卷在试题命制的思路和趋势上延续了近几年广东省英语试题卷的命题主旨和原则,不仅注重考查考生对英语语言基础知识的掌握和理解程度,而且继续强化考生在特点语言环境中综合运用英语语言知识的能力。

各题型的难易程度度1、语法填空题难度适当降低,注重基础语法知识点的考查。

2、阅读理解题难度略有提高,加大对主旨大意题的考查。

3、读写任务题难度适中,更注重考生的语言丰富性和篇章连贯性。

总体来说,今年广东高考英语试卷的难度比去年会有所提高,但是仍然会以基础为主。

试题特点:1、尽管今年广东英语高考卷延续了一贯的稳定,试卷结构基本不变,题型基本不变,赋分基本不变,容量基本不变,但仍会有些新的变化,例如:考点和选材上。

①语法填空:较近三年试题,13年广东卷语法填空题稍有变脸。

三年来首次考核两个词性转换题,两个与固定搭配相关的连词考点和两个介词考点。

然而,此种分布变化在一定程度上降低了本次语法填空题的难度。

②完形填空题:完形填空题形填空题加大了对副词的考查中两道突显了理解语境“情感”的重要性,但通常这类题目考生会比较容易出错。

③基础写作的取材是以今年年初热点话题“荷兰火星一号公司招募火星移民志愿者”为背景,但考查信息点难度适中,给予了考生一定的发挥空间。

可见命题者在选材上独具匠心但未从语言表述上难为考生,重点在于通过新材料引导考生关注生活,关注热点.2、今年广东卷在选材上,突显“正能量”,同时又富有浓郁的生活气息,从A 篇的“想象的正能量”,再到B篇的“成功的新定义”,又到C篇的“无声的关爱”,强烈的人文关怀早已跃然纸上。

而信息匹配从强调英语语言的“工具性”出发,通过邮件咨询商品信息或求购的方式来解决实际的生活问题,措辞朴实,富有生活气息。

板块分析完形填空:本题重点考查学生的阅读理解能力以及对语言的综合运用能力,要求考生快速把握文章大意,建立语句内部及语句之间的逻辑语意联系。

从考查点的分布来看,均衡地考查四类实词。

2013年高考英语广东卷-答案

2013年高考英语广东卷-答案

2013年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(广东卷)英语答案解析Ⅰ语言知识及应用第一节完形填空1.【答案】C【解析】由下文的两个实验来看,都是数理的“变化”。

其他三个选项“上升”“样式”“趋势”与文中内容几乎毫无关系。

2.【答案】B【解析】因“实验表明许多动物也跟人类一样具有这种能力”,这是“令人惊讶的”。

其他选项“重要地”“失望地”“幸运地”与上下文内容无联系。

3.【答案】D【解析】结合下句,特别是however可知,上下句的大意应是“如果鸟巢内有四个蛋,你移走一个蛋,这只鸟会没有注意到;然而,如果你移走两个蛋,这只鸟就会离开这里了”。

其他选项“幸存”“关心”“孵化”不合语境。

4.【答案】A【解析】把这只鸟“通常”会离开,因为这个具体的例子是用来说明“many birds have good number sense”这个主题的。

“真诚地”“无意地”“故意地”不合语境。

5.【答案】C【解析】这个例子谈到,四个中移走一个余下三个,这只鸟会注意不到;若移走两个,余下两个了,这只鸟就会离开这里了。

这说明这只鸟知道余下两个与余下三个的“差别”其余选项“距离”“范围”“间隔”与语境不符。

6.【答案】A【解析】与上文中“good number sense(良好的数字感)”中的good相对应,也与第2题的答案surprising相对,故选“amazing(令人惊异的)”,近义复现。

其他选项“讨厌的”“令人满意的”“烦扰的”不合语境。

7.【答案】D【解析】与left相对,“离开”“返回”这两者也叫同现;与下文中“return to the nest”的return是原词复现。

8.【答案】C【解析】从下文看,这个人有了一个“主意”或想了一个“办法”,其他选项“约会”“借口”“解释”均不合语境。

9.【答案】A【解析】由but可知,他们并没能“欺骗”那只乌鸦。

与下文“fool the crow”中的fool是原词复现,也就是说从此可以得到启示。

So Nick called to his son, “Go to the village and buy some salt, but pay a fair price for it: neither too much 17 too little.”His son looked surprised. “I can understand why shouldn’t pay too much, Father, but if I can pay less, 18 not save a bit of money?”“That would be a very 19 (reason) thing to do in a big city, but it could destroy a small village like ours,” Nick said.Nick’s guest, 20 had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, “The only reason a man would sell salt 21 a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect 22 the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”“But such a small thing couldn’t 23 (possible) destroy a village.”“In the beginning, there was only 24 very small amount of unfairness in the world, but everyone added a little, always 25 (think) that it was only small and not very important, and look where we have ended up today.”第三节阅读理解A.Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,”he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for while. She has avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装), but finally she agreed.The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way. And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the operation.The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to go through those things that seem impossible, and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr. Epstein puts it, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”It doesn’t mean that y ou should dress as a superhero for your next job interview. But, next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first. So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream.26. What do we know about Tom?A. He was seriously ill.B. He was a dishonest boy.C. He was crazy about magic.D. He was Dr. Epstein’s patient.27. What can be inferred about Tom’s mother?A. She was a rich lady.B. She refused Tom’s request.C. She wanted Tom to be a superhero.D. She wanted to get Tom through the pain.28. When Tom went for the third operation, he_________.A. pretended to be painfulB. acted like a superheroC. appeared in poor spiritsD. argued with his mother29. In the last paragraph, you are advised________.A. to go through some difficult testsB. to wake up from your wild dreamsC. to become a powerful person in your mindD. to wear expensive clothes for job interviews30. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To tell us an interesting story.B. To help us make right decisions.C. To advise us to care about children.D. To encourage us to use our imagination.B.Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become rally good at whatever it is you put all that work into.31. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about__________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success32. Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to__________.A. being good at somethingB. setting a practical goalC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life33. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because_____________.A. work makes one feel painB. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed34. What can be infer from Paragraph 4?A. Successful people like to show their great skills.B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.35. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Having a goal is vital to success.B. Being good is different from being great.C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.C.One day, when I was working as a psychologist in England, an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept waling up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can I help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no wards can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon---in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.”Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.“It’s your turn,” he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one---without any words---can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.36. When he first met the author, David_________.A. felt a little excitedB. walked energeticallyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher37. As a psychologist, the author __________.A. was ready to listen to DavidB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was able to describe David’s problemD. was sure of handling David’s problem38. David enjoyed being with the author because he____________.A. wanted to ask the author for adviceB. needed to share sorrow with the authorC. liked the children’s drawing in the officeD. beat the author many times in the chess game39. What can be inferred about David?A. He recovered after months of treatment.B. He liked biking before he lost his family.C. He went into university soon after starting to talk.D. He got friends in school before he met the author.40. What made David change?A. His teacher’s help.B. The author’s friendship.C. His exchange of letters with the author.D. The author’s silent communication with him.D.While Jennifer was at home taking an online exam for her business law class, a monitor(监控器) a few hundred miles away was watching her every move.Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer’s Los Angeles apartment, the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved from the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room. Her Internet access was locked---remotely---to prevent Internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was; Did she enter her student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or was she slowing down?In the battle against cheating, this is the cutting edge and a key to encourage honestly in the booming field of on line education. The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institution and to online education in general. Only with solid measures against cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show that their exams and diplomas are valid---that students haven’t searched the Internet to get the right answers.Although online classes have existed for more than a decade, the concern over cheating become sharper in the last year with the growth of “open online courses.” Private colleges, public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students, while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance.Aside from the web cameras, a number of other high-tech methods are becoming increasingly popular. Among them are programs that check student’s identities using personas information, such as the telephone numbers they once used.Other programs can produce unique exams by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters byanalyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at he same speed as easy ones. As in many university classes, term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating.41. Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam?A. To correct her typing mistakes.B. To find her secrets in the roomC. To prevent her from slowing down.D. To keep her from dishonest behaviors42. The underlined expression cutting edge in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______.A. advanced techniqueB. sharpening toolC. effective ruleD. dividing line43. For Internet universities, exams and diplomas will be valid if__________.A. they can attract potential studentsB. they can defeat academic cheatingC. they offer students online helpD. they offer many online courses44. Some programs can find out possible cheaters by_________.A. checking the question answering speedB. producing a large number of questionsC. scanning the Internet test questionsD. giving difficult test questions45. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. The Advantages of Online ExamsB. The High-tech Methods in Online CoursesC. The Fight against Cheating in Online EducationD.

The same man, who dislikes his job in the factory or even in the office, may work hard at the weekend, painting the house or digging the garden.What is the reason, then? In most cases, it is because these people simply do not enjoy the job they are doing. It does not give them any real satisfaction. It may be quite easy, like making up wooden boxes, but it is very boring. Very often they are doing a job which is just a small part of a much larger one, such as attaching a door handle to a car. But the part they play in actually making the car is so small that they can never say: I have made something!Yet in modern society somebody has to do ordinary jobs such as cleaning streets because this is the way society is organized. No matter how ordinary a job is, it plays a part in society and therefore deserves our due respect. Society cannot function a single day without the “dull and boring” jobs.[写作内容]1. 以约30词概括上文的主要内容。

2013广东英语试题和答案

2013年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(广东卷)英语(A卷)I 语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从1~15各题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a 1 in number. Human beings are born with this ability. 2 , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not 3 . However, if you remove two, the bird 4 leaves. This means that the bird knows the 5 between two and three.Another interesting experiment showed a bird’s 6 number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow (乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not 7 until the man left the tower. The man had an 8 . He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not 9 the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was 10 with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were 11 . It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were 12 able to fool the crow.How good is a human’s number sense? It’s not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a 13 group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are 14 fooled.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human 15 is not much better than a crow’s.1.

2013年高考广东英语试卷评析
第一部分:试卷综述
一、试卷设计
2013年广东省高考英语试卷是由选择题和非选择题两类题型构成。

其中,选择题包括:完形填空、阅读理解和信息匹配;非选择题包括:语法填空、基础写作和读写任务。

题目类型、题目数量和分值均与2012年保持了一致。

表1:2013年广东卷题型及赋分值对比
选择题非选择题全卷完形填空阅读理解信息匹配语法填空基础写作读写任务
题数15 20 5 10 1 1 52
赋分30 40 10 15 15 25 135
二、整体难度
整体来看,2013年广东卷在试题命制的思路和趋势上延续了近几年广东省英语试题卷的命题主旨和原则,不仅注重考查考生对英语语言基础知识的掌握和理解程度,而且继续强化考生在特定语言环境中综合运用英语语言知识的能力。

各题型的难易程度
1、语法填空题难度适当降低,注重基础语法知识点的考查。

2、阅读理解题难度略有提高,加大对主旨大意题的考查。

3、读写任务题难度适中,更注重考生的语言丰富性和篇章连贯性。

三、试题特点
1、尽管今年广东英语高考卷延续了一贯的稳定,试卷结构基本不变,题型基本不变,赋分基本不变,容量基本不变,但仍会有些新的变化,例如:考点和选材上。

①语法填空:较近三年试题,13年广东卷语法填空题稍有变脸。

三年来首次考核两个词性转换题,两个与固定搭配相关的连词考点和两个介词考点。

然而,此种分布变化在一定程度上降低了本次语法填空题的难度。

②完形填空题:完形填空题形填空题加大了对副词的考查中两道突显了理解语境“情感”的重要性,但通常这类题目考生会比较容易出错。

③基础写作的取材是以今年年初热点话题“荷兰火星一号公司招募火星移民志愿者”为背景,但考查信息点难度适中,给予了考生一定的发挥空间。

可见命题者在选材上独具匠心但未从语言表述上难为考生,重点在于通过新材料引导考生关注生活,关注热点.
2、今年广东卷在选材上,突显“正能量”,同时又富有浓郁的生活气息,从A 篇的“想象的正能量”,再到B篇的“成功的新定义”,又到C篇的“无声的关爱”,强烈的人文关怀早已跃
然纸上。

而信息匹配从强调英语语言的“工具性”出发,通过邮件咨询商品信息或求购的方式来解决实际的生活问题,措辞朴实,富有生活气息。

第二部分:板块分析
一、完形填空:难度适中,重在语境
本题重点考查学生的阅读理解能力以及对语言的综合运用能力,要求考生快速把握文章大意,建立语句内部及语句之间的逻辑语意联系。

如表1所示,近年高考的完形填空题选材广泛且富有深度,对扩大考生的知识面和培养辩证的思维能力提出更高的要求。

表2:2011~2013广东卷完形填空题主要内容和体裁
年份 主要内容 体裁 2011年 是否应该对天才儿童实施特殊的分班教育 议论文 2012年 规则对错分明,有利于和睦相处;规则非一成不变,并非泾渭分明 说明文 2013年 动物具有与人类相似的数字感 说明文
2013年广东卷完形填空题考查的目标词类与2012年一致;从考查点的分布来看,更均衡地考查四类实词。

从整体上看,文章篇幅合理且难度适中,主要体现在整体词汇难度不大,篇章意思叙述完整。

表3:2011~2013广东卷完形填空题考查词类和全文总词数比较
年份 全文总词数
合计 动词 名词 副词 形容词
2011年 238 15 1 4 2 8 2012年 322 15 3 3 4 5 2013年 307 15 4 4 4 3
然而,2013年广东卷完形填空题在测试点的选择和测试技巧运用上强化了同义复现的做题策略。

这种命题特征在过去两年也相对明显,如表3 所示:2011年5次,2012年3次;今年同义复现的语意对应沿用2012年的考查思路,需要考生联系上下文语境和语义逻辑关联才能真正把握空格的准确词义,也就是这种同义是指特定语境下的同义。

表4:2011~2013广东卷完形填空题同义复现现象的分布情况

份 测试点
2011年 2012年 2013年
同义 复现 题量
5题 3题 7题 题号 3(average),4(special), 6(intelligent),7(regular), 13(talented) 2(clearly),5(easy), 8(exactly) 1(change),5(difference), 6.(amazing),7(return), 9(fool) , 11(gone),15(ability)
二、语法填空:语法点分布广,考查基础全面
2013年语法填空继续选用富有教育意义的故事素材,有利于考生获取必要信息,进而根据句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求填上适当的词汇。

在考查项目分布上与前3年相比稳中有变。

表5:2011~2013年广东卷语法填空题的考查项目分布
考查项目年份
实词的使用功能词的使用
动词形容

副词合计限定词介词代词连词合计
2011年 2 1 1 4 1 1 3 1 6
2012年 2 2 0 4 1 1 3 1 6
2013年 2 1 1 4 1 2 1 2 6
由表4可知:近年来,广东卷语法填空题命题思路清晰、稳定,并且一直将测试重点定位在句式结构和语义关联上。

2013年广东卷语法填空题考查的语法知识点分布较广,其中有些题目涉及非常基础的语法知识(如:定冠词的使用,介词的固定搭配,非限制性定语从句的引导词,形容词转化成副词等),考查的是初中阶段学生就应该掌握的语法知识。

同时,今年对连词的考查着眼在固定搭配上,在一定程度上降低了题目的难度。

三、阅读理解:注重细节,强化主旨推理
2013年广东卷阅读理解题体裁延续往年风格,涉及记叙文,说明文和议论文;且选材新颖,语言地道,充满时代的人文气息。

从网上测试的作弊监控,无声沟通,对成功的重新定义再到想象的正能量,无不紧扣当前热点话题,涉及社会、生活和人的发展话题。

材料的语言表述地道不乏俚语,措辞相对简单,却能给考生留下无限的空间,这就需要考生平时扩大阅读量,才能完全适应这种看似简单,实际却稍有难度的语言材料。

从测试点上(见表5),2013年对事实细节题的考查仍是主流,但对推理判断题也继承前两年的特点,稍有突出;与前两年略有不同的是,今年考题更注重对主旨题的考查。

不难看出,命题者有意引导考生深层次体会文章的“中心主题”并品味文章的“弦外之音”。

表6:2011~2013年广东卷阅读理解短文题目类型
题型
年份
主旨大意事实细节句子/词汇理解推理判断
2011年 1 11 1 7
2012年 2 10 2 6
2013年 3 11 2 4
四、信息匹配:图文并茂,突显“工具性”
2013年广东卷的信息匹配题采用图文并茂的形式,围绕“阅读杂志广告内容,通过邮件咨询信息或求购”的话题,内容不生僻,有利于考生提取关键性信息。

与2012年试题相比,难度相当,相信经过充分的备考,绝大部分考生能准确完成题目。

五、基础写作:热点题材,信息量适中
2013年广东卷基础写作题与新闻热点密切联系,具有很强的时代感。

同时,由于基础写作题所提供的写作材料比较新颖,为不加大试题的难度,今年的信息量相比近两年比较适中。

考生只要具备正确使用复合句、同位语和分词短语的语言能力,并能重视句子之间的衔接和语意上的连贯,一定程度上就能较好地完成题目。

表7:2011~2013年广东卷基础写作题的主要内容、体裁与信息点
年份主要内容体裁信息点
2011年“虎妈”教育方式讨论说明文——图书
介绍
时间、地点、方法、争论、影响
2012年传奇人物终身学习应用文——人物时间、地点、经历、人生观、评价
简介
2013年移民火星的快讯应用文——时事
主题、条件、观点
快讯
六、读写任务:生活写照,朴实见新
2013年广东卷的读写任务题基本上继承了前两年的命题思路。

在话题选取上,关注人的成长,尤其是学生在成长过程中所经历的一些话题,这就给予广大考生足够的发挥空间;从阅读文章的长度上看,也与前两年的文章字数相当。

在写作要点上,今年的读写任务题突显了“虚拟语气”这一语法难点的高调回归,同时在要点的设计上,也有要求学生告别“建议”、“影响”、“经历”和“原因”等常规模板的倾向。

但总体而言,今年读写任务题的整体得分和难度基本稳定。

值得一提的是,近年来读写任务题中的话题在英语教材中多有涉及,这对于引导高中英语教学回归课本具有良好的导向作用和反拨效应。

在写作能力的培养上,也要注重培养学生议论文和记叙文(写作手法多为夹叙夹议)的写作技巧,做到有备应考。

表8:2011~2013年广东卷读写任务的话题、材料文体与写作文体
年份语言材料材料文体写作文体
2011年住宿生想家故事记叙文(夹叙夹议)
2012年教师对学生的影响书信读后感(夹叙夹议)
议论文读后感(夹叙夹议)
2013年平凡工作中的“不平
凡”
综上所述,2013年广东卷高考英语试题能较全面考查考生的英语水平,对高校选拔人才,促进高中英语教学发挥应有的作用。

同时,2013年高考试题总体难度适中,没有偏、怪、难题,这对来年高三复习备考具有重要的指导意义。

广大考生需注重夯实英语基础知识,培养娴熟的解题技巧,进行广泛的英语阅读,强化篇章理解能力及遣词造句的能力。
