語法填空十大典型錯(cuò)誤剖析
河南 馬國(guó)民
作為全國(guó)卷的必考題型,語法填空的命題具有一定的規(guī)律性,答題具有一定的技巧性。如果考生在答題時(shí)對(duì)知識(shí)掌握不佳或判斷失誤,則非常容易誤填答案,從而導(dǎo)致失分。
動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)是中學(xué)英語重要的語法項(xiàng)目之一,也是高考語法填空試題的必考點(diǎn)之一。對(duì)于這方面的考查,空后給出了動(dòng)詞原形作為提示詞。如果對(duì)此掌握不佳或答題時(shí)沒有分析好題干語境,就容易對(duì)時(shí)態(tài)判斷失誤,從而誤填答案。答題時(shí),需要結(jié)合各種時(shí)態(tài)的含義、短文的具體語境、題干中的標(biāo)志狀語等,仔細(xì)分析題干,這樣才能確定空格處應(yīng)使用的時(shí)態(tài)種類。
【考例1】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅰ)Yangshuo 67 (be)really beautiful. A study of travellers conducted by the website TripAdvisor names Yangshuo as one of the top 10 destinations in the world.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】is。審題時(shí)粗心大意,受到“conducted”的影響,忽略了具體語境,容易誤填was。分析題干可知,空格處描述的是現(xiàn)在的一個(gè)客觀事實(shí),故應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。
【考例2】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅰ)It was raining lightly when I 61 (arrive)in Yangshuo just before dawn.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】arrived。受到空后“before”的干擾,容易誤填過去完成時(shí)態(tài)。在題干中,空格處作為從句的謂語動(dòng)詞,是過去發(fā)生的動(dòng)作,故應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)。
動(dòng)詞語態(tài)也是語法填空試題的高頻考點(diǎn)之一,如果答題時(shí)忽略了主語是動(dòng)作的承受者,就會(huì)誤填答案。因此,在分析題干時(shí),一方面要判斷好空格處應(yīng)用哪一種動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài),另一方面還需要判斷主語是動(dòng)作的執(zhí)行者還是承受者。一旦確定主語是動(dòng)作的承受者,那么空格處就應(yīng)用被動(dòng)語態(tài)形式。
【考例1】(2015·廣東卷)He sold or exchanged some of the milk in the towns nearby for other food and made cheese and butter for the family with what 19 (leave).
【易錯(cuò)剖析】was left。只注意了語境,忽略了主語是動(dòng)作的承受者,容易誤填left。what與空格之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,結(jié)合語境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)。
【考例2】(甘肅省重點(diǎn)中學(xué)協(xié)作體2016屆高三聯(lián)考)Industry observers are predicting total sales of over 20 million vehicles this year;by comparison,a little more than 15 million vehicles 44 (expect)to be sold in the United States.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】are expected。忽略了主語和謂語之間的被動(dòng)關(guān)系,容易誤填expect。主語“a little more than 15 million vehicles”是動(dòng)作的承受者,結(jié)合語境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)。
當(dāng)空格后的提示詞是動(dòng)詞,且空格處在句中作謂語時(shí),涉及的考點(diǎn)是動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài),而空格處不在句中作謂語時(shí),涉及的考點(diǎn)才可能是非謂語動(dòng)詞。如果沒有分析好空格處在句中的具體作用,那么就容易對(duì)考點(diǎn)判斷失誤,從而造成失分。因此在答題時(shí)需要擦亮眼睛,仔細(xì)推敲空格處在句中所作的成分,然后再結(jié)合動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)或非謂語動(dòng)詞方面的知識(shí)進(jìn)一步敲定答案。
【考例1】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅱ)The adobe dwellings(土坯房) 61 (build)by the Pueblo Indians of the American Southwest are admired by even the most modern of architects and engineers.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】built。容易誤認(rèn)為空格處是謂語動(dòng)詞,從而按照動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)去分析答案,導(dǎo)致失分。分析題干可知,空格處作“The adobe dwellings”的后置定語,且表示被動(dòng)完成。故應(yīng)填過去分詞。
【考例2】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅱ)This cycle 68 (go)day after day:The walls warm up during the day and cool off during the night and are thus always a timely offset(抵消)for the outside temperatures.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】goes。受到空格后內(nèi)容的影響,容易誤認(rèn)為空格處是非謂語動(dòng)詞,從而誤填答案。在題干中,空格處作謂語,由此結(jié)合空后的時(shí)態(tài)和語境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。
作為語法填空題的必考點(diǎn),非謂語動(dòng)詞方面的考查涉及動(dòng)名詞、不定式、現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞四個(gè)方面。如果對(duì)這方面的知識(shí)掌握比較薄弱,分析空格處的作用時(shí)就會(huì)模棱兩可,容易做出錯(cuò)誤的判斷。一方面要扎實(shí)掌握好非謂語動(dòng)詞的相關(guān)用法,例如動(dòng)名詞作主語、賓語、表語和定語,不定式作主語、賓語、表語、定語、狀語和賓語補(bǔ)足語,現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞作定語、狀語、賓語補(bǔ)足語和表語,另一方面還要把非謂語動(dòng)詞的知識(shí)與題干緊密結(jié)合起來。
【考例1】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅰ)A study of travellers 68 (conduct)by the website TripAdvisor names Yangshuo as one of the top 10 destinations in the world.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】conducted。對(duì)非謂語動(dòng)詞的用法掌握不佳,容易誤填答案??崭裉幾鳌癆 study of travellers”的后置定語,且表示被動(dòng),由此結(jié)合語境可知,空格處應(yīng)填過去分詞。
【考例2】(2014·上海卷)In 2010,it was estimated that about 400 village shops closed, 39 (urge)the local government to give financial support to struggling shops or setup new communities stores.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】urging。對(duì)空格處在句中的作用辨別不清,從而誤填答案。逗號(hào)后為非謂語動(dòng)詞短語作結(jié)果狀語,且表示正常的結(jié)果,空格處與其邏輯主語之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系,故填urging。
語法填空針對(duì)復(fù)合句的考查,屬于純空格題,涉及名詞性從句、定語從句和狀語從句三方面。名詞性從句包括主語從句、賓語從句、表語從句和同位語從句;定語從句包括限制性定語從句和非限制性定語從句;狀語從句包括讓步狀語從句、時(shí)間狀語從句、條件狀語從句、原因狀語從句等共九種。如果答題時(shí)沒有判斷好題干考查的是哪一種從句,那么就容易誤填從句的引導(dǎo)詞。在答題時(shí),需要結(jié)合句子成分和句子結(jié)構(gòu)等方面的知識(shí),仔細(xì)推敲題干,先確定題干考查的是哪一種從句,然后再結(jié)合該從句的用法、空格處的作用和題干語境等來敲定引導(dǎo)詞的使用。
【考例1】(2015·湖南卷)Research has become both simpler and more complex. It’s simpler because, 48 you have a computer,you can find information you need by searching the Internet.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】if。考查狀語從句。容易誤認(rèn)為“ 48 you have a computer”是定語從句,從而誤填答案。分析題干可知,在because引導(dǎo)的狀語從句中含有一個(gè)條件狀語從句,再結(jié)合語境可知,if符合題意。
【考例2】(2015·上海卷)He’s so addicted to it that he just can’t stand the idea 34 there may be an important text.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】that。考查同位語從句。容易誤認(rèn)為“idea”后面是狀語從句,從而造成失分。idea之后為同位語從句,從句中不缺少成分,且句意完整,故用that作為引導(dǎo)詞。
【考例3】(2014·廣東卷)The next day,my brother and I went to the beach 24 we watched some people play volleyball.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】where。考查定語從句。對(duì)句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析不當(dāng),容易誤認(rèn)為考查的是狀語從句。在題干中,名詞“beach”為定語從句的先行詞,關(guān)系詞在從句中作地點(diǎn)狀語,故應(yīng)填關(guān)系副詞where。
從句包括名詞性從句、定語從句和狀語從句,在句中作主語、賓語、表語、同位語、定語和狀語,需要依附主句而存在,不可獨(dú)立使用,而并列句是由兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的簡(jiǎn)單句構(gòu)成,并使用and,but,or等并列連詞來連接。從句涉及的是引導(dǎo)詞的考查,而并列句涉及的是并列連詞的考查。如果對(duì)于題干所在的句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析不當(dāng),則容易把從句與并列句混為一談,從而誤填答案。答題時(shí),需要依據(jù)從句和并列句的用法,并結(jié)合句子成分的相關(guān)知識(shí),從整體上分析、推敲題干,判斷題干考查的是從句還是并列句,然后再對(duì)答案進(jìn)行分析。
【考例1】(云南省玉溪一中2015屆高三月考)But our government allows college graduates to borrow money from banks 66 maybe some can get money from their parents.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】and??疾椴⒘羞B詞。容易誤認(rèn)為“banks”是先行詞,考查的是定語從句,以致誤填答案。在題干中,空格前后是兩個(gè)并列句,由此結(jié)合語境可知,并列連詞and符合題意。
【考例2】(2015·廣東卷)One day,the cow was eating grass 20 it began to rain heavily.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】when??疾闋钫Z從句。對(duì)題干的句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析不到位,容易誤認(rèn)為這是一個(gè)并列句,從而誤填并列連詞。此處為狀語從句的常用句式“主語+ be doing sth. + when+其他”,意為“正在做某事,正在那時(shí)……”。
涉及冠詞的考查屬于純空格題,考查內(nèi)容包括定冠詞的用法和不定冠詞的用法。對(duì)于兩種冠詞的用法掌握不佳或?qū)︻}干分析不當(dāng)均可導(dǎo)致誤填答案。對(duì)此,一方面,考生在備考時(shí)需要熟練掌握定冠詞和不定冠詞的用法,另一方面,答題時(shí)需要學(xué)以致用,結(jié)合兩種冠詞的用法對(duì)題干仔細(xì)分析,確定空格處在句中的具體作用,找準(zhǔn)答題的突破口,這樣才能提高答題的準(zhǔn)確率。
【考例1】(2015·廣東卷)Mr. Johnson lived in the woods with his wife and children. He owned 16 farm,which looked almost abandoned.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】a。容易誤認(rèn)為空格處表示特指,從而誤填定冠詞。名詞“farm”在句中表示泛指,故填不定冠詞。
【考例2】(2014·廣東卷)She apologized for the mistake and gave us a spare VIP room on 23 top floor.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】the。容易誤認(rèn)為空格處在句中表示泛指,誤填不定冠詞。在題干中,介詞on之后特指的是頂層,故應(yīng)填定冠詞the。
對(duì)介詞的考查是純空格題常見的一種考查形式,包括at,for,on等某一介詞的具體用法及介詞在短語中的應(yīng)用。如果對(duì)介詞的用法及相關(guān)的常用短語掌握不佳或沒有分析好空格處在句中的作用,那么誤填答案在所難免。因此對(duì)于at,in,on,for,by,with等常用介詞的用法及有關(guān)介詞的常用短語,考生需要做到熟練掌握,靈活運(yùn)用。在分析題干時(shí),需要確定空格處考查的是介詞的用法還是與介詞相關(guān)的短語,在此基礎(chǔ)上再對(duì)答案進(jìn)行推敲。
【考例1】(2015·廣東卷)He sold or exchanged some of the milk in the towns nearby 18 other food and made cheese and butter for the family with what was left.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】for。沒有看出來空格處與空格前的動(dòng)詞“exchanged”構(gòu)成的是短語,從而誤填答案。此處為動(dòng)詞短語“exchange...for”,意為“把……換成,用……交換”,故填介詞for。
【考例2】(2014·上海卷)Hundreds of communities have since stepped in and opened up their won volunteer-run shops,but Mr. Fox hopes his new invention will offer a solution 40 these villages without a local shop.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】to。容易誤填介詞in或其他介詞,原因是沒有與空格前的動(dòng)詞聯(lián)系起來。根據(jù)動(dòng)詞短語“offer sth. to sb.”可知,空格處應(yīng)填介詞to。
針對(duì)代詞的考查,有的在空后給出了提示詞,而有的則屬于純空格題,考點(diǎn)主要包括人稱代詞、物主代詞、指示代詞、反身代詞、不定代詞等。答題時(shí),未確定空格處是否屬于替代作用、未判斷好空格處指代的是什么或疏于分析空格處所作的成分,都容易導(dǎo)致誤填答案。為了避免這方面的失誤,答題時(shí)需要判斷空格處是否屬于替代作用,分析空格處所作的句子成分,并結(jié)合代詞的具體用法填出正確的答案。
【考例1】(2014·廣東卷)Last year,my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation. Some of my friends who had been there before said 16 was a wonderful holiday destination.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】it。對(duì)空格處的作用判斷不清,容易誤填that或其他代詞。分析題干可知,空格處作主語,用于指代名詞“Miami”,故應(yīng)填人稱代詞it。
【考例2】(2011·廣東卷)He got off the bus before me and I felt very happy the rest of the way home. I’m glad I made a choice. It made 25 of us feel good.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】both。容易誤填all或其他代詞,原因是未確定空格處的作用。根據(jù)語境“這使我們兩個(gè)都感覺良好”可知,both與題意相符(both用于指代空前的兩個(gè)人)。
考生在答題時(shí),雖然能準(zhǔn)確判斷空格處所考查的考點(diǎn),也知道應(yīng)該填寫哪方面的單詞,但是對(duì)于單詞的拼寫如果難以寫出正確的形式,那么也會(huì)造成失分。備考時(shí),在熟練掌握考綱單詞拼寫的基礎(chǔ)上,還需要掌握好構(gòu)詞法、過去式的構(gòu)成方式、現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞的構(gòu)成方式、比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)的構(gòu)成方式等,尤其是要重點(diǎn)掌握特殊單詞的過去式、過去分詞、比較級(jí)、最高級(jí)的正確拼寫形式。答題時(shí),書寫的單詞要做到工整、清晰,避免書寫潦草、亂涂亂改,并且還要注意空格處如在句首時(shí),單詞的首字母需要大寫。
【考例1】(2014·上海卷)The machine 34 (equip)with securing cameras and alarms and looks like a minishop with a brick front,a grey roof and a display window.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】is equipped。對(duì)于equip的過去分詞的拼寫形式掌握不佳,容易誤填is equiped。主語是動(dòng)作的承受者,結(jié)合空格后的語境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài),故填is equipped。
【考例2】(2015·全國(guó)新課標(biāo)卷Ⅱ)As 69 (nature)architects,the Pueblo Indians figured out exactly how thick the adobe walls needed to be to make the cycle work on most days.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】natural。對(duì)nature的形容詞拼寫形式掌握不佳,容易誤填答案。空格處在句中作定語,用于修飾名詞“architects”,由此結(jié)合語境可知,形容詞natural符合題意。
【考例3】(2014·廣東卷)When we were wondering what to do,the manager came out. She was 22 (surprise)helpful.
【易錯(cuò)剖析】surprisingly。對(duì)surprise的副詞形式掌握不佳,容易誤填答案??崭裉幾鳡钫Z,用于修飾形容詞“helpful”,故應(yīng)填surprisingly。
