令主要考察实词，为名词，动词，形容词，副词；

令动词是考察重点，尤其是动词的分词变形为主；所以动词时语态与非谓语是高中语法学习的重点。

令名词与形容词为次重点，每年都有考察；对于名词与形容词在句中所起作用与相互修饰须要学生熟练

掌握。

令副词考察较少，难度不大。它在句中的位置灵活，功能强大。

令每年都会考察考纲词汇的派生词，如标粗处。要注意积累派生词。

03高频考点•以考定法I

题型特点：

♦选词填空中的设空比较均匀，基本覆盖全文。

♦语篇第一句一般是对全文的概括或提示，为确保其完整性，且有助于学生对文章内容的理解，通常不设

空。

♦词汇考查点分配合理，相互干扰。

♦该部分注重考查词汇的词义（meaning）及其使用（use）。近几年高考尤其注重考查词汇的隐含意思、

词语的搭配、意义关联及贴切性。一词多义和一词多性往往是考查难点。

♦近义词或同义词的辨析不列入考查范围。

♦选项中的词汇都为考纲词汇，或加上前缀、后缀而成的衍生词汇。

词性考察考点分析做题技巧

1、主要考察名词作主语和宾语1、先判断方框单词的词性

名词

2、注意名词也可作前置定语词义，注意一词多性和一词

do/does形式:多义。

1、句子缺少一个谓语动词，可根据“谓语动词数=连词数+1”2、精读第一句，掌握文章

动词

规则判断主题。

2、注意三单和动词及物不及物3、根据语法知识确定被填

doing形式:入空格词的词性，缩小范

1、可能是动名词、现在分词和进行时态围。

2、动名词主要考察作主语、宾语4、根据文章理解确定答案。

3、现在分词主要考察作表语、定语、状语、宾补，注意分5、仔细检查，最终敲定答

词短语作后置定语情况案。

done形式:

1、可能是谓语动词过去式、被动语态及过去分词

2、若空格前有be动词，要根据句意判断是被动还是表状

态的过去分词

3、过去分词主要考察作表语、定语、状语、宾补，注意分

词短语作后置定语情况，注意单个过去分词作后置定语的

情况，如：left,saved,remained,gained等

—38—disputes,handlebusiness,feast,andenjoyfestivities.Inthiswaycastlesservedasimportantsocial

centersinmedievalEngland.（2018上海春考）

【答案】38.A

［解析］动词并列表示一系列连贯的动作，前后时态一致。addressv.”处理；解决”。addressdisputes解决纠纷。

A.competitorsB.philosophyC.properlyD.maximizeE.enthusiasticF.candidate

G.JnirrorsH.backgroundI.extremelyJ.conductedK.cultural

【答案】38.G

［解析］句意：你需要以一种反映他们公司标准的方式进行沟通；这将表明你能够融入那个组织。此处mirror

用作动词，“照射”，“反映”。熟词生义。

>考点二：一词多性

establishorpromoteacompany'simageandwillenableemployeesto49attheirbest.

A.accessB.alternativesC.designedD.confirmedE.conflicting

F.elementsG.functionH.innovativeLprospectiveJ.separateK.supporting

【答案】G

【解析】本句意为“这种要求要注意均衡内饰的需要和使得员工起到最好的作用，内饰在一定程度上，可以

加强，建立或促进公司的形象。''结合搭配enablesbtodosth可以知道空格填动词形式，而且是原形。需注

意function可以做名词（“功能”），也可做不及物动词动词用（“起作用”）。

>考点三：构词法知识（派生/转化/合成/缀合）

（2016上海高考）

resultis_43_design.

Forexample,thinkofa(n)_47desklamp.Itneedstobeconstructedfrommaterialsthatwillstandtheheat

ofthelampandregularadjustmentsbytheuser.

【解析】以上两空均所填入单词均涉及到构词法知识。

43.J形容词soulless没有灵魂的；该词在本句中做定语修饰名词designo根据前半句"TheAmerican-born

architectRobertVenturiconcludedthatifsimplicityisdonebadly...”可知美国建筑家RobertVenturi总结过,如果

简约没有做好，那么这样的设计就是没有灵魂的；

47.B形容词adjustable可调节的；本句中该词作为定语修饰名词desklamp,意为“可调节的台灯”，与后句

中“regularadjustmentsbytheuser”形成呼应。

（2017黄埔一模）

A.administeredB.assessC.evaluatingD.externallyE.improperlyElife-threatening

G.measuresH.originalI.preexistingJ.principlesK.vital

trouble.Unlesstheaccidentscenebecomesunsafeorthevictimmaysufferfurtherinjury,donotmovethevictim.

Firstaidrequiresrapidassessmentofvictimstodeterminewhetherlife-threateningconditionsexist.

【解析】以上2空考查了构词法知识，分别是构词法中前缀与合成。preexisting意思为“以前存在的”；

life-threatening意思为“威胁生命的”。

＞考点四：固定搭配

在选词填空中，约定俗成的固定搭配不是很多，但对固定搭配的理解很常见。此外，非常重要的一点是注

意小品词，即我们通常所说的to,in,on,at,from等等,某种程度上能给我们选择的提示。如：

l).Hebelievesdesignmusttakeinto___thesensorysideofournature-sight,smell,touchandtaste,

(account)(2016上海高考)

2).Sinceyoureallyyourselftoahealthierlifestyle,alittlehelpwouldcomeinhandy,wouldn'tit?

(commit)(2014上海高考)

3).TheBritishandSwedishgovernmentshaveintroducedaso-called"trafficlightsystem"tofoodsashealthy

orunhealthy.(2014上海高考)

【解析】以上均考察词汇固定搭配。takeintoaccount意思为“把...考虑在内commitoneselfto”使自己

致力于做”；“使自己承担于......classify...as“将......分类或划分”。

04核心素养•微专题

-Step1.判断选项单词词性-

以下，是常见单词词性判断中遇到的单词类别：

1、一词多性

■名词后缀:-y/ty;-ism;-ness;-al..

•形容词后缀：-able;-al;-ical;-ful;-ive;-ous..

选词填空解题步骤

第一步：通读全文readthrough

选词填空要先了解文章大意，带着文章脉络去找选项。所以，务必先沉着地把文章读一遍，尤其注意gap前

后的位置，为寻找正确选项打下铺垫。选词填空短文的第一句对全文的内容有概括提示作用，所以一定要

认真看懂第一句，而且反复出现的词也是帮助考生掌握文章大致内容的重要线索。

第二步：整理选项classifytheoptions

整理选项。大概花费1分钟，即辨别每个单词词性。分别标出备选项的词性，比如在名词旁标注n.,在动

词旁写上v.,形容词旁标注adj.,副词旁写上adv.等。

第三步：选词填空fillinthegaps

我们在选择时，根据所掌握的英语语法规则来初步确定每个空应填词汇的词性，缩小选择范围。然后，根

据上下文的内在逻辑含义选择合适的选项填空。

第四步：复读全文，谨慎调整

填空完成后，再次复读全文，自我感觉上下文是否通顺、内在逻辑关系是否连贯。如有问题，也需要谨慎

的微作调整。
