“突出语境，强化语意，注重运用”
江苏高考英语试题单项填空考查热点及应试策略
江苏省扬州中学
江苏省高考英语试题自主命题思路继续保持一贯的风格：突出语篇、强调应用、注重交际，着重考查学生在听、说、读、写各个方面的实际运用能力。但又体现了“稳中求变，变中求新，立足语篇，突出语境”这一指导思想。试卷内容贴近生活、贴近时代，知识覆盖面广，因此试卷具有较高的信度、效度，难度也比较适中。这样的命题一定会有利于高校选拔人才，有利于中学实施素质教育，有利于推进基础教育课程改革。为帮助老师、同学对2006年江苏高考英语试卷进一步了解，调整、指导2007年高考英语的复习教学，现对试卷中的单项填空题考查热点及应对策略略作评析，仅供参考。
I. 考查重点 该大题主要考查学生在语境中综合运用词汇、语法、习惯用语和日常交际用语的能力。其测试内容如下：
考查内容 时态 语态 动词 词组辨析 情态动词 非谓语动词 主谓一致 定语从句 从句 状语从句 宾语从句 代词 形容词比较级 副词 介词 数量及题号 1（27） 1（23） 1（25） 1（21） 2（30、32） 1（34） 1（29） 1（31） 1（35） 1（22） 1（33） 1（26） 1（24） 情景对话 1（28）
如试题及上表所示，考查内容基本涵盖中学阶段所学知识，但是：
（1）动词是考查的重点。如试卷中的25题表明，动词短语的识记及辨析能力一直是高考的必考题，也是学生失分较多题。
（2）注重特定语境中的语法和词汇知识的运用考查。强调应用、注重交际，纯语法规则的考查题较少，考查理解能力和逻辑推理能力的试题较多。充分体现了《英语课程标准》中“改变英语课程过分重视语法和词汇知识的讲解与传授，忽视对学生实际语言运用能力的培养的倾向”的新思想。
（3）加大题干句子结构的复杂程度，融结构考查与理解考查于一提，读句能力的要求有明显提高。
（4）交际题型多达5道 (为近年最多的一次)，占33.3%，充分体现了注重交际的教学导向。 II. 原题拷贝
2006年江苏高考英语单选题解析
21. --- I think I’ll give Bob a ring.
--- You _______. You haven’t been in touch with him for ages. A. will B. may C. have to D. should 【解析】D．情态动词should的最基本用法，用以表示劝告或推荐。
22. My most famous relative of all, _______ who really left his mark on America, was Rob Sussel, my great-grandfather.. A. one B. the one C. he D. someone 【解析】B．本题考查同位语，冠词，代词用法。调整一下语序变成：My most famous relative of all was Rob Sussel, my great-grandfather, the one who really left his mark on America.不难看出the one who really left his mark on America做my great-grandfather的同位语，又因为所填的代词被定语从句修饰，所以要加定冠词。
23. --- I don’t suppose the police know who did it.
--- Well, surprisingly they do. A man has been arrested and ________ now. A. has been questioned B. is being questioned C. is questioning D. has questioned
【解析】B．本题考查时态、语态。注意最后一词now，故用被动语态地进行时态。 24. This new model of car is so expensive that it is _______ the reach of those with average income. A. over B. within C. beyond D. below
【解析】C．本题考查介词。表示在能力上超出，应用beyond. beyond the reach of those with average income.意为“超出平均收入人的购买能力”。再如：超出某人的想象力beyond one’s imagination；超出某人的理解力，某人无法理解beyond one’s understandings. over一般用来表示时间，数量上的超过，或者空间上越过一段距离。
25. --- Are you going to have a holiday this year?
--- I’d love to. I can’t wait to leave this place _______. A. off B. out C. behind D. over
【解析】C．本题考查动词短语的识记及辨析。leave…behind有两层意思。一是表示：把…抛在后面。如：Britain is left behind in the race for new market英国在开发新市场方面被抛在后面。二是表示：永久离开。如：She knew that she had left childhood behind.她知道童年已经一去不复返了。本句中表示永久离开这个地方。leave sth. off意为“停止”； leave sth. out意
为“排除，忽略”；leave over意为“推迟”。
26. The committee is discussing the problem right now. it will _______ have been solved by the end of next week. A. eagerly B. hopefully C. immediately D. gradually

【解析】B．本题考查动词时态。依据what worries us is that some of them are returning.可判断是到目前为止，所以用现在完成时。

Even if意为“即使，假使”；If only意为“假如…就好了”从句中常用虚拟语气；While意为“当…时候，与…同时；尽管”。 32. --- There is a story here in the paper about a 110-year-old man. --- My goodness! I can’t imagine _________ that old. A. to be B. to have been C. being D. having been
