高考考点在《新概念英语》中的体现
《新概念英语》是世界著名的英语教学权威L.G.亚历山大所编写的一套全方面提高学生英语应用能力的经典教材。但是,长期以来,部分学生和家长却误认为,新概念只是讲解一篇篇单独的课文,考点针对性不强,从而放弃了对此教材的学习,实为遗憾。
事实上,学好了新概念一、二册,中考题便是“小菜一碟”了,而熟练掌握二册的全部内容和三册的部分内容,便足以让你轻易而举地在高考中脱颖而出。05年的高考英语试题中的15道词汇、语法单选题无一例外地出自新概念二册,这足以证实二册的价值,只要在新东方学过新概念一、二册的同学对此是勿用质疑的。
下面,让我们来看看新概念二册在06年高考英语试题中所占的份量。在15道词汇和语法单选题及10道短文改错题中,共有24题出自于新概念二册的单词和课文之中。详解如下:
(一)词汇与语法
21、To make
members of a team perform better, the trainer first of all has to
know their ___and weaknesses.
A.
strengths B. benefits C. techniques D. values
解析:第15课(P68)第四个单词及第36课(P166)第二个单词分别为weak
和strong,通过课堂上老师所讲解的词根和词缀的联想记忆,学生是不可能忽视weakness
和strength两个重点词汇的,strengths and
weaknesses用以表示一个人的优势和弱势,所以答案选A,而在第七课(P36)的单词中及第80课(P373)练习中分别出现了valuable
及benefit,所以不难排除B和D。
22、One of
the best ways for people to keep fit is to_____ healthy eating
habits.
A. grow
B. develop C. increase D raise
解析:第59课(P272)出现一个重要句子:Since then, he has developed another bad
habit.与本题考点正好吻合,显而易见,这里的B就是正确答案。
23、The
____on his face told me that he was angry.
A.
impression B. sight C. appearance D. expression_r_r
解析:在二册每一篇课文的词汇表上都会出现expression_r_r这个单词。此外,在59课(P272)的词汇中出现了press,且在84课(P386)出现了pressure,这便会使老师自然扩展到对pressure、expression_r_r及impression三个词的辨析,同时sight出现在第30课(P142)最后一个单词,appearance
来自于第17课(P76)的第一个生词appear,
通过二册的学习,我们知道只有expression_r_r有“表情”的意思,故不难得出正确答案D。
24、At the
meeting they discussed three different ____ to the study of
mathematics.
A.
approaches B. means C. methods D. ways
解析:第65课(P296)单词中出现approach, means, 老师在讲解中不可避免地会涉及到大纲必考词汇approach,
method, way的用法。此外,第5课(P28)课文的最后一句话以及难点讲解(P30)也出现了“in this
way”,答案A便不难得出,因为只有approach才同介词to相搭配,其余选项均和介词of搭配。
25、It’s
already 10 o’clock. I wonder how it____ that she was two hours late
on such a short trip.
A. came
over B. came out C. came about D. came up
解析:本题考到了与come搭配的短语。2册第81课(P374)第10行出现“the driver of the car came
towards him.”;第94课(P426)第11行出现了come
up这个短语,因此,归纳与come相搭配的短语自然成为课文扩展内容的必要部分。come
about表示“发生,产生”,本题答案选C也就不言而喻了。
26、The
building around the corner caught fire last night. The police are
now ____ the matter.
A. seeing
through B. working out C. looking into D. watching over
解析:本题答案C
.looking into
属于“look”短语归纳小结部分内容,第37课(P172)难点讲解中对look的用法进行了详尽的总结,是我们课堂的重要内容之一了。look
into表示“对……进行调查”,为正确选项。
27、As I grew
up in a small town at the foot of a mountain, the visit to the
village ____ scenes of my childhood.
A. called
up B. called for C. called on D. called in
解析:第6课(P32)倒数第二句中出现call
at,及第34课(P160)难点讲解中对call和相关词组总结都表明了此单词的重要性,所以答案A符合题意,call
up在这里表示“唤起”的意思。
28、Although
the wind has ____, the rain remains steady, so you still need a
raincoat.
A. turned
up B. gone back C. died down D. blown out
解析:第49课(P232)第6行中blow up(刮风)的出现,使对此单词的联想扩展成为课堂必讲内容之一,所以 die
down及blow out便不得不与blow up进行对比记忆了,但是我们通常说blow sth out,所以答案选C。
29、—I was
wondering if we could go skiing on the weekend.
—_____good.
A. Sound
B. Sounded C. Sounding D. Sounds
解析:关于sound, look, smell, task, feel 等感官系动词的用法早在新概念一册第61课第三句“He
looks ill”时,老师便在课堂上进行生动地扩展、讲解。答案D便呼之欲出了,属于系表结构。
30、I’m
certain David’s told you his business troubles.____, it’s no secret
that he owes a lot of money to the bank.
A.
However B. Anyway C. Therefore D. Though
解析:本题考点侧重于让步状语的连词及副词的掌握情况,而二册第38课(P174)第5行讲到even
though引导的让步状语从句,且第43课(P196)难点讲解at any
rate的用法时,老师都会对让步状语的用法进行反复归纳总结。B便是唯一符合题意的答案了,表示“不管怎么样”。同时A、C、D也分别在第25课和88课讲解过了。
31、_____fired, your health care and other benefits will not be
immediately cut off.
A . Would
you be B. Should you be C. Could you be D. Might you be
解析:虚拟语气是二册的语法重点,也是高考及四、六级的必要点,老师分别在第40课(P183),第38课(P174),第64课(P292)对虚拟语气的考点进行了彻底、详细地归纳,在新东方学过并掌握了新概念二册的同学一眼便能肯定B选项是正确答案了。这里是对将来时虚拟语气的倒装的考查。
32、I won’t
tell the student the answer to the math problem until he _____ on
it for more than an hour.
A. has
been working B. will have worked C. will have been working D. had
worked
解析:本题属时态考点,每年必考,而二册第52课(P245)对现在完成时和现在完成进行时通过大量的例句进行了对比,同时老师也在第14课(P65)、第37课(P170)过去完成时及将来完成时进行详细的讲解,A选项是显而易见的答案,选择现在完成进行时强调动作的持续性。
33、AIDS is
said ____ the biggest health challenge to both men and women in
that area over the past few years.
A. that
it is B. to be C. that it has been D. to have been
解析:二册第58课(P268)专门对高考及四、六级不会放过的考点主语从句和不定式作主语补足语的替换进行了大量的练习和讲解,课文第一句“The
ting village of Frinley is said to possess a cursed tree”,
及第82课(P378)第一句“Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen
monsters in the sea”,都体现了不定式一般式及完成式的重要性。答案D便不难得出了。
34、Don’t sit
there ____ nothing. Come and help me with this table.
A. do B.
to do C. doing D. and doing
解析:非谓语动词一向是各种级别考试中的黄金考点,也是学生最头疼的问题,但是二册第49课(P233)及第55课(P256)课直接讲述了分词作伴随及各种状语的用法,掌握这两课是治头疼的良药。所以C便是必然的选择了。
35、—You know
who came yesterday?
—Yao
Ming? We had a basketball match.
—_____ He
came and watched the game.
A. You
guessed it! B. How did you know that? C. well done! D. That was
good news!
解析:本题属于新一内容中的常用口语用法,所以这题难度很低,A是一目了然的答案。
(二)短文改错
正如前文所提,今年的10道改错题完全出自新概念二册,而且判断的难度不是很大,下面我们进行逐题分析:
Growing up
is not easy. Sometimes all that is need
——76、
is
someone to rely on. For many years, she was
Mum.——77、
My mother
was a career woman and had her own.
——78、
problems
to take care of, but when I needed her,
she——79、
was
always there. Her strength came from
anywhere——80、
I don’t
quite know, somewhere very deep. She was so
strong
that she would never break down, even while
I——81、
went to
her with all my little-boy problems and
shout——82、
at her.
Her strength made me stronger and gave to
me——83、
courage
to try things other thought were
impossible——84、
helping
hand is always stronger enough to lift you
up.——85、
解析76:本题重点考被动语态的判断及need作实义动词的用法,根据二册第10课(P48)的被动语态及第41课(P187)对need的讲解,本题应该把need改为needed。
解析77:新概念第一册对人称代词进行学习,而二册第2课(P16)对代词“it”的小结及原文第4行“It was my aunt
Lucy”与本题如出一辙。所以本题应把“she”改为“it”。
解析78:本题从词汇和时态上都无错误,不必作改。
解析79:二册第16课(P74)难点讲解中出现了take care of,而problems与take care
of构成动宾关系,所以错误在于添加了介词of。
解析80:二册第39课(P143)关键句型中专门讲解了some
与any的用法及含义区别,老师在课堂上自然会扩展到由some和any所构成的一系列不定式代词及副词的用法,并且由下文的“I don’t
quite know”可以得出是不确指的某个地方,所以答案应将“anywhere”改为“somewhere”。
解析81:二册第7课(P37)明确区分了时间状语连接词when, while和as
的联系与区别,老师也反复强调了“while”表动作的延续。此外,第38课(P173)第5行“even though it was
still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly
cold”也使学生掌握了even though/
if引导的让步状语从句的使用。综合上两课的知识点,不难找出错误,将while改成when或though/ if均可。
解析82:二册第25课(P123)的关键句型详细讲解了and及其他并列连词的用法。例句:He finished lunch and
went into the garden.
相对本题只是换汤不换药而已。所以在要求时态一致的情况下,将shout改为shouted是显而易见的。
解析83:本题考点在于二册第3课(P22)的动词后接双宾语的用法,而且动词give的用法在新概念第一册当中学生已熟练掌握,而练习第9题“He
gave his son some advice”都能够使学过新概念的同学可一目了然识别错误所在。省略“to”是理所当然的了。
解析84:二册第5课(P28)第二行及倒数第二行出现了another与other的用法,同时第7课(P36)倒数第二行又出现了“two
others opened the parcel”的句子,老师在课堂上也对other, another, else,
others及more进行了详细的对比及讲解,所以本题应将other改为others。
解析85:二册第36课(P166)学习了形容词strong的用法,而第86课难点(P396)又对enough作为详细讲解,所以将stronger改成strong是毫无疑问的。
(三)完形填空及阅读理解
由于完形填空和阅读理解篇幅较长,而且是测试学生对语法、词汇及篇章分析等综合能力的检测,笔者在此便不作一一解析,而是以综合总结为主。
06年高考的完形填空20题中,除47题明确考察学生对虚拟语气的掌握情况以外,其他19题则侧重于名词、动词、介词、及副词的用法,而在这次词汇题中,如36题考dream
of doing、37题的答案life、38题的答案have a picture in
mind等都属于新概念一、二册中的常用词汇,所以对于在新东方学过新概念的学员来说,本次完形填空难度系数是不高的。
此外,阅读理解部分的5篇文章中,尽管只有C篇属于故事叙述性类,另外4篇倾向于说明文及议论文类,表面看来有点难度,但是事实上如果掌握了新概念二册中第二第三单元的语法现象,做起考题来便如鱼得水了。实例分析如下:
57、The
audio-magazines are mainly for____.
A.
European journalists
B.
professional travelers
C.
language learners
D.
magazine collectors
解析:A篇文章第一段中有这样一个复杂句“Designed to help you…---or your money
back”本句以过去分词短语开头作为原因状语,点明此杂志的原因便是要提高读者的听力、词汇及文化知识点,同时,不定式 “to study
the
language”作后置定语也突出了语言学习这一点。二册第49课(P233)及第55课(P256)分别归纳总结了分词作各种状语成分,而第58课和第59课老师也系统讲解了不定式作各种成分的功能。所以答案C便一目了然了。
62、In the
third paragraph, the author tells us that____.
A.attention should be paid to the receivers’ responses
B.one
learns from what he did in the past
C.the
choice of gifts reflects one’s emotional qualities
D.one
should spend more time choosing gifts
解析:B篇文章第二段最后一句话“This can show in the gifts we select, and so can
many other emotional qualities”选择本题的关键在于理解原文后半句“so can many
other…”这是一个so引导的倒装句,作为高考及四、六级的必考内容的倒装,老师在二册第92课(P420)作了系统讲解及归纳,而例句“He
can swim and so can I”与原文极为雷同,所以答案C便轻而易举地被挑选了出来。
64、What was
the author’s fist impression of the boy?
A.He
seemed to be poor and greedy.
B.He
seemed to have suffered a lot.
C.He
seemed younger than his age.
D.He
seemed good at bargaining.
解析:C篇文章第一段第四行“Though he appeared
to…”此句中的让步状语从句及词汇bitterness都在二册第38课(P174)重点讲解,而选项中的suffer一词也在二册第78课(P362)中学到,所以学生一眼便能识别出bitterness和suffer属近义词考点,答案B便毫无疑问了。
70、By
comparing tomatoes raised in Britain and in Ghana, the author tries
to explain that___.
A.British
tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian ones
B.Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than British ones
C.Cutting
down food miles may nit necessarily save fuel
D.Protecting the environment may cost a lot of money
解析:D篇文章第二段原文“It should be
noted…”此句看起来很复杂难懂,事实上正好出现在二册第58课(P268)的重点结构——主语从句之中,同时此句还难在“transported
25 miles in
truck…”这个分词结构中,学过二册第29课(P138)的同学对比结构便不陌生了。此外,在二册第32课(P152)之中,老师对“not
so…as”与“less…then”的对比讲解也正好与此句的结构相吻合。答案C便可马上选出了。
75、What is
the authors purpose in writing the passage?
A.To
discuss why people like talking about weather.
B.To
encourage people to join in conversations.
C.To
persuade people to stop making noises;
D.To
explain why people keep talking.
解析:E篇文章最后一段第一句“Those who hat
to…”此句表面复杂,实际上只是纸老虎,学过并且掌握了二册第28课(P136)所归纳的关系代词的定语从句,以及第55课(P256)第四行出现关系副词所引导的定语从句之后,此题便迎刃而解了,所以当然选D。
