This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers hav e a bad reputation for being unaware of what?s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy._71__They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __72__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.__73_ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you?re daydreaming, try to do it whi le you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It?s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, be ing focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid fallingasleep.__74__Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.____75_Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A. Having interesting things to think about also helps.B. They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C. Without wandering minds, we wouldn?t have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.E. It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.F. Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.G. Therefore, it?s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you?re in thedaydream zone.【解析】【考点定位】⽣活类短⽂阅读【名师点睛】本⽂是七选五常考的建议类说明⽂，第1、2⾃然段为概念的提出及导⼊，第3段明确了下⽂的内容：如何在“⽩⽇做梦”中趋利避害。
2015年高考英语真题分类汇编：专题10 名词性从句
专题十名词性从句1.【2015·湖南】26.You have to know ________ you're going if you are to plan the best way of getting there.A. whatB. thatC. whereD. who【答案】C【考点定位】考查宾语从句。
【名师点睛】判断是什么句子最关键，这个句子是由know引导的宾语从句，宾语从句的连接词有连接代词和连接副词。
因为从句部分缺少状语成分，答案就出来了。
正确解答该题需要理解句意以及注意上下文（you're going if you are to plan the best way of getting there.）的表达。
2.【2015·北京】33.I truly believe ______beauty comes from within.A. thatB. whereC. whatD. why【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：我很相信美丽源自于内心! 本题考查宾语从句。
从句部分不缺少任何成分，因此用that起到连接作用，也可以省略。
从句部分不缺少任何成分，因此用that起到连接作用，也可以省略。
故选A。
【考点定位】考查名词性从句。
【名师点睛】名词性从句分多种，宾语从句在考试中也是很常见的，要注意宾语是句子的一个重要成分，它可以由名词、代词、名词短语或句子充当。
当一个句子充当宾语时，这个句子就称之为宾语从句。
一般情况下，宾语从句可作谓语的宾语，也可做主语的宾语。
根据所选空在句中所作的成分来判断出是何种名词性从句。
3.【2015·安徽】25.A ship in harbor is safe, but that’s not ______ ships are built for.A. whatB. whomC. whyD. when【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：船停放在海港里是很安全的，但这并非建造船的目的。

2015年高考英语真题分类汇编：专题05 动词的时态和语态
专题五动词的时态和语态1.【2015·北京】22.--Did you enjoy the party?--Yes,we___by our hosts.A.were treatedB.would be treated.C.treatedD.had treated【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：——你喜欢这个聚会吗？——是的，我们的主人很好的招待了我们。
根据上一句中的did可知用一般过去时；且we和treated是动宾关系，用被动语态。
空中应用一般过去时的被动语态，故选A。
【考点定位】考查动词的时态及语态。
【名师点睛】本题考查时态和语态，本题需要先看句子中有没有明确的时间状语，然后再看有没有相关的词，比如隐藏的时间点，和一些动词的过去式。
解答时态语态题时，学生需要注意结合上下文语境，找出相关提示词来判断时态；并且分析出主语和动词是主谓关系还是动宾关系。
2.【2015·北京】26.in the last few years,China ___ great achievements in environmental protection.A.has madeB.had madeC.was makingD.is making【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：在过去的这些年里，中国在环境保护中取得了很大的成就。
由时间状语in the last few years可推知动作从过去一段时间持续到现在并对现在造成影响，用现在完成时。
故选A。
【考点定位】考查时态。
【名师点睛】判断时态可以从时间状语入手，题干中的in the last few years为现在完成时的时间标志词。
类似的还有over/ for/ during the last/ past yea rs/months…均为现在完成时的时间标志，所以做此类题时，需要先看句子中是否有明确的时间点，然后我再判断时态。
3.【2015·北京】27.—Did you have difficulty finding Ann' house?—Not really.She___us clear directions and we were able to find it.easily?A.was to giveB.had givenC.was givingD.would give【答案】B【考点定位】考查时态。

2015年高考英语真题分类汇编：专题07-非谓语动词(含答案解析)
专题七非谓语动词1.【2015·湖南】30.When the clerk saw a kind face wrinkled in an apologetic smile, she stood rooted to the ground, ________ whether to stay or leave.A. wonderingB. wonderC．to wonder D．wondered【答案】A【解析】考查非谓语动词。
主句的主语she与动词wonder构成逻辑上的主动关系，因此用v.ing形式作伴随状语，故选A。
句意：当那个小职员看到一张善良的面孔泛起皱纹并歉意地一笑时，她像生了根一样站在那儿，不知道是走还是留。
【考点定位】考查非谓语动词【名师点睛】非谓语形式有三种：1、动词不定式：to do 2、动词的ing : doing 3、动词的过去分词：done;不定式：表示目的和将来；动词的ing：表示主动和进行；过去分词：表示被动和完成。
非谓语动词的做题步骤1、判定是否用非谓语形式。
方法：看看句子中是否已有了谓语动词了;2、找非谓语动词的逻辑主语。
方法：非谓语动词的逻辑主语一般是句子的主语。
3、判断主被动关系。
方法：非谓语动词与其逻辑主语的主动还是被动关系。
4、判断时间关系。
方法：分析句子，看看非谓语动词所表示的动作发生在谓语动作之前、之后还是同时。
之前常用 done; 之后常用to do; 同时常用doing.从本题来看主句的主语she与动词wonder构成逻辑上的主动关系，因此用v.ing形式作伴随状语。
2.【2015·北京】21._____the early flight,we ordered a taxi in advance and got up very early.A.Catching.B.Caught.C.To catch.D.Catch【答案】C【解析】试题分析：句意：为了赶上早班的飞机，我们提前叫了出租车并且起得很早。

2015年高考英语真题分类汇编之阅读理解2(含解析)
专题十五阅读理解之社会生活、说理议论类1.【2015·湖北卷】A“I see you’ve got a bit of water on your coat,” said the man at the petrol station. “Is it raining out there?”“No, it’s pretty nice,” I replied, checking my sleeve. “Oh, right. A pony(马驹) bit me earlier.”As it happened, the bite was virtually painless: more the kind of small bite you might get from a naughty child. The pony responsible was queuing up for some ice cream in the car park near Haytor, and perhaps thought I’d jumped in ahead of him.The reason why the ponies here are naughty is that Haytor is a tourist-heavy area and tourists are constantly feeding the ponies foods, despite sighs asking them not to. By feeding the ponies, tourists increase the risk of them getting hit by a car, and make them harder to gather du ring the area’s annual pony drift(迁移).The purpose of a pony drift is to gather them up so their health can be checked, the baby ones can be stooped from feeding on their mother’s milk, and those who’ve gone beyond their limited area can be returned to their correct area. Some of them are also later sold, in order to limit the number of ponies according to the rules set by Natural England.Three weeks ago, I witnessed a small near-disaster a few mils west of here. While walking, I noticed a pony roll over on his back. “Hello!” I said to him, assuming he was just rolling for fun, but he was very still and, as I got closer, I saw him kicking his legs in the air and breathing heavily. I began to properly worry about him. Fortunately, I managed to get in touch with a Dartmoor’s Livestock Protection officer and send her a photo. The officer immediately sent a local farmer out to check on the pony. The pony had actually been trapped between two rocks. The farmer freed him, and he began to run happily around again.Dartmoor has 1,000 or so ponies, who play a critical role in creating the diversity of species in this area. Many people are working hard to preserve these ponies, and trying to come up with plans to find a sustainable(可持续的) future for one of Dartmoor’s m ost financially-troubled elements.51.Why are tourists asked not to feed the ponies?A. To protect the tourists from being bittenB. To keep the ponies off the petrol stationC. To avoid putting the ponies in dangerD. To prevent the ponies from fighting52.One of the purposes of the annual pony drift is ______________.A. to feed baby ponies on milkB. to control the number of poniesC. to expand the habitat for poniesD. to sell the ponies at a good price53.What as the author’s first reaction when he saw a pony roll on its back?A. He freed it from the trapB. He called a protection officerC. He worried about it very muchD. He thought of it as being naughty54.What does the author imply about the preservation of Dartmoor’s ponies?A. It lacks people’s i nvolvement.B. It costs a large amount of moneyC. It will affect tourism in Dartmoor.D. It has caused an imbalance of species【考点定位】夹叙夹议文阅读【名师点睛】夹叙夹议文是近几年高考经常涉及的一类文体，文章一方面叙述事情，另一方面又对事情加以评论，此类文章一般先提出论点，然后以事例说明论点，最后得出结论，或者一边叙述事情经过，一边对事情加以分析评论，文章最后一段用一句概括性的话点明主题，将叙述和议论有机地结合起来，其中“叙”是“议”的基础，“议”是“叙”的渗透和延伸。

The necklace was around my neck, a warm reminder of human kindness.(B)Ask helpful HannahDear helpful Hannah,I’ve got a problem with my husband, Sam. He bought a smart phone a couple ofmonths ago and he took it on our recent ski vacation to Colorado, it was a greattrip except for one problem. He has a constant urge (33) for next messages;he checks his phone every five minutes! He’s so addicted to it that he just can’t stand the idea (34) there may be an important text. He can’t help checkingeven at inappropriate times like when we are eating in a restaurant and I am talkingto him!

I am worried thatSam maybe suffering from this illness because he feels anxious if he doesn’t havehis phone with him, even for a short time.Who would have thought that little devices like these could have brought so muchtrouble!Sick and Tired SadieSection BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each wordcan only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Considering how much time people spend in effects, it is important that withA be well designed. Well-designed office spaces help create a corporation’s image. They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visit and might be potential, or 41 , customers. They make business work better, and they area part of the corporate culture to live in.As we move away from an industrial-based economy to a knowledge-based one, office designers come up with 42 to the traditional work environments of the past. The design industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created more flexible “strategic management environments.” These 43 solutions are meant to support better organizational performance.As employee hierarchies （等级制度）have flattened or decreased, office designers’ response to this change has been to move open-plan areas to more desirable locations within the office and create fewer formal private offices. The need for increased flexibility has also been 44 by changes in workstation design. Office and work spaces often are not 45 to a given person on a permanent basis. Because of changes to methods of working, new design allow for expansion or movementof desks, storage, and equipment within the workplace. Another important design goalis communication, which designers have improved by breaking the walls that 46 workstations. Designers have also created informal gathering places and upgraded employees’ 47 to heavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms.Corporate and institutional office designers often struggle to resolve a numberof competing and often 48 demands, including budgetary limits, employees hierarchies and technological innovation (especially in relation to computerization). These demands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors (内饰) that in some way enhance, establish or possess a company’s image and will enable employees to 49 and their best.All these 50 of office design are related. The most successful officedesigns are like good marriage—the well-designed office and the employees that occupy it are seemingly made for each other.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more 52 in people’s lives. The 53 is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be 54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that 55 attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone. First ImpressionTo help determine the 56 of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their 58 judgments often held true. Students seemed to 59 at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The 60 KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones — natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling 61 to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as 62 as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we find attractive. Researchers had people judge faces for 63 . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces. The way we 64 attractiveness seem to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to 65 words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.51. A. Instead B. Therefore C. Moreover D. Otherwise52. A. romantic B. stressful C. central D. artificial53.

AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache.

I leta salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model, I realized this a day late,when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid,The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night, Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise ,I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether .My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now,but I keep expecting more trouble.21.Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.22.Which of the following can best replace the phrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A.ended all their programsB.provided fewer channelsC.changed to commercialsD.showed all-night movies23.How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting it.

You can make your environment work for you instead of against you . Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights .

If your home doesn’t have enough window light , get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors . Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites . In one study , people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room . Warm colors like yellow make tood appear more appetizing , while cold colors make us feel less hungry . So when it’s time to repaint , go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里）per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down , turn on relaxing music.

LizPayneBThe freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place tospend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekendto Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we toucheddown to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pinksunsets(at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part-particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables-was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 am to 1 , rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries, the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的) promise, I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes f or years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the s ize of my fist. These were the real deal- and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm is one of thesuppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where-luckily for me-I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.24. What did the author think of her winter life in New York?A. Exciting.B. Boring.C. Relaxing.D. Annoying.25. What made the author’s getting up early worthwhile?A. Having a swim.B. Breathing in fresh air.C. Walking in the morning sun.D. Visiting a local farmer’s market.26.

The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works andmasterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory.There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities (无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration (合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. 28.

This evening, as on every Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France’s favorite pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking cure”. Here they a re learning to get in touch with their true feelings. It isn’t always easy. The customers-some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session-are quick to intellectualize (高谈阔论)，slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say ‘onefeels,’ or ‘people think’,”Lehan n e told them. “Say ‘I think,’ ‘Think me’.”A cafe society where no intellectualizing is allowed? It couldn’t seem more un-French. But Lehanne’s psychology caf e is about more than knowing oneself: It’s trying to help the city’s troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours, a fast-food boom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home. Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.The city’s “psychology cafes”, which offer great comfort, are among the most popular places. Middle-aged homemakers, retirees, and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to Lehanne’s group just to learn to say what they feel. “There’s a strong need in Paris for communication,”says Maurice Frisch, a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. “People have few real they need to open up.”Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all over France. “If people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn’t exist,”she says. “If life weren’t a battle, people wouldn’t need a special place just to speak.” But then, it wouldn’t be France.are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?A.

AWhen Mary and I arrived in a small town one cold winter night, we decided to spend the night at the local Holiday Inn. We wanted to spend a quiet weekend together before I left for a year in Argentina. I was to join the International Livestock.Mary waited in the lobby (大堂) while I checked us in. To my surprise the desk clerk gave me a room that was already occupied—and by a couple who had left the door open and was probably sleeping. I praised the hotel personnel and started back to the lobby to get Mary when a man came by insisting he was the manager, although his unsuitable clothes suggested otherwise. He told me that the clerk was new and not familiar with the room arrangement. Then without further explanation, he escorted us to a room in the back of the motel.After in rapid-fire style doorway introductions, the man left us to ourselves. Mary asked if I had noticed anything interesting about him. It¦s not likely that the rude desk clerk would be the manager, she said. Do you think we should change motels?Before I could say anything, there was a knock at the door. It was the man again, this time with a cheap looking bottle of champagne (香槟). Suspecting foul play, I asked him why he suddenly appeared as though he owned the place. He replied: I guess I was acting a bit foolish out there. I wanted to apologize before I leave.We left him with his cheap champagne, marveling at how clever people sometimes are. When we left for Argentina, all we remembered about that night was a mistaken room whose occupant wanted to be more accommodating to us.1. Who checked in at the hotel?A. The woman.B. The couple in the room.C. The man and the woman.D. Mary and the man.2. Why did the man appear again with a cheap looking bottle of champagne?A. To apologize.B. To welcome the couple.C.

该种题型要求学生积累一定的词汇量，四个词的意思分别是“思考”；“支持”；“保护”和“权威”；其次，做题时需要结合句意进行综合考虑。
根据第一句和“and then let me know”可知，现在不急着告诉“我”答案，由此可知是让对方再想想。

记忆单词应和阅读结合起来，把单词融入句子中和语境中，利用上下文来帮助记忆。
7.【2015·湖南】27. It is important to remember that success ________ a sum of small efforts made each day and often ________ years of achieve.A. is; takesB. are; takesC. are; takeD. is; take【答案】A【解析】试题分析：主谓一致指“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系。
根据分析，第一空的谓语要填一个单数，因为此宾语从句：…that successa sum of…day.的主语是success，一个单数名词，故谓语要用is；后面的句子：oftenyears to achieve.的主语也是success，故第二空的谓语也是一个单数形式。
句意：成功是将每天一小点努力积累起来，是需要多年的努力去达到，记住这些很重要。
【考点定位】考查主谓一致原则【名师点睛】本题旨在考查主谓一致原则，要求学生掌握这一原则和用法，确定句子主语的单复数，不要受其他干扰项干扰而答错。
主谓一致是指： 1）语法形式上要一致，即单复数形式与谓语要一致。
2）意义上要一致，即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。
3）就近原则，即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语，一般来说，不可数名词用动词单数，可数名词复数用动词复数。
4）就远原则，即谓语动词的单复形式取决于离它最远的词语，一般来说，不可数名词用动词单数，可数名词复数用动词复数。
8.【2015·陕西】14. more learned a man is,more modest be usually become.A. The ; theB. A; aC. The ; aD. A; the【答案】A【考点定位】考查冠词【名师点睛】冠词的考查集中在the表示特指；a/an表示泛指。
另外要注意冠词的一些固定搭配中冠词的使用。
这里用的是：the +比较级+主谓，the +比较级+主谓的句型，学生在平时应该多积累这些包含冠词的短语和句型。
9.【2015·四川】5.Brian is gifted in writing music; he is very likely to beBeethoven.A. aB. anC. theD.不填【答案】A【解析】试题分析：考查冠词。
本题考查不定冠词在人名前，表示：一个像…那样的人。
故选择A，句意为：Brian 在创作音乐上极有才华，他很有可能成为一个像贝多芬那样的人才。
【考点定位】考查冠词【名师点睛】考查冠词。
冠词是高考英语中的难点和重点，考生在冠词试题上失分较多，主要是缺乏语感，对一些知识点掌握不够透彻。
本题中首先根据Beethoven排除选项B，因为不定冠词an用于以元音音素开头的单词前。
通常情况下人名前是不加冠词的，但是如果指一个像某个名人的人时，在这个人名前加不定冠词。
10.【2015·浙江】2. Jane’s grandmother had wanted to writechildren’s book for many years, but one thing or another always got in way.A. a;不填B. the;theC. 不填;theD. a;the【答案】D【解析】试题分析：句意：多年来，简的奶奶想写一本有关于儿童的书，但总是被这样或那样的原因阻碍了。
第一个空使用不定冠词表泛指，第二个in the way 是固定搭配，意为挡道或阻碍。
定冠词用于特指或者是固定搭配，不定冠词用于泛指。
选D。
【考点定位】考查冠词的使用【名师点睛】冠词的考查一直以来是一个易错点，虽然冠词只有3个(a , an, the) 但是麻雀虽小五脏俱全，考查起来往往会弄错。
名词第一次出现或泛指时，冠词用a/an，，但名词的首字母是（A、E、I、O、U）发音时，用an, 如：apple, English, important, operation, unusual, 特殊的有umbrella, hour, honest 用an, university, unique, usual 用a。
名词第二次出现用the；①强调特指时用the；②the + 最高级，③the + 形容词（rich 【富人】, poor 【穷人】, wounded【伤者】, dead【死者】, elderly【长者】）表某一类人④the+比较级（the more .. the better）⑤the +序数词（表顺序）; a+ 序数词（表“又，再”），⑥固定搭配(in the way 挡道)另外也需要注意零冠词的情况。
零冠词用法归纳：独一职位在某地，用作表/补/同位语；独立主格作状语，用by短语表方式；man字一词指人类，对比含义两名词；系词turn+名单数，街/路/期刊与杂志；具体意义变抽象，as/though之倒装句；人名/地名/国一词，抽象/物质不特指；桥名/单岛/单山峰，一专加一普专用词；月份/星期/节假日，学科/语言/称呼语；颜色/病名/五感觉，棋类/球类/三餐词；复数名词系泛指，固定词组惯用语；以上情况请记住，其前均用零冠词。
