8.I write to my mother every week, most on Sundays.

三、语法填空

1.______ 2.______ 3.______ 4.______ 5.______
6.______ 7.______ 8.______ 9.______ 10.______
答案:
文章大意:如今手机上瘾现象非常严重,对人们的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )生活有着很大的危害。文章告诉我们是我们的自控力和自我约束力差而导致此种现象,并非手机本身的问题。
1.had 考查一般过去时。根据时间状语“on Oct. 22”可知,此处是在描述发生在过去的事情,故用一般过去时。
2.absorbed 考查固定短语。be absorbed in“专心致志,全神贯注”,是固定短语。
3.throwing 考查现在 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )分词。根据语境可知,此处表示“火车与他擦身而过,把他摔在了地上”,train和throw之间是主谓关系,故用现在分词作结果状语。
4.as 考查固定结构。serve as意为“起作用,产生效果”,此处表示“这应该给人们起一个警告作用”。
5.when/while 考查连词。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )语境可知,此处表示“尤其是当过马路的时候”,故用when或while,此处是“主语+系动词”的省略。可还原为:especially when/while they are crossing roads。
6.Luckily 考查副词。幸 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )运的是,这个男子与死亡擦肩而过,但是这个事件迫使驾驶员停下了火车。在句首应该用lucky的副词形式,即Luckily。
7.to stop 考查动词不定式。force sb. to do sth.意为“迫使某人做某事”,为固定结构。
8.which 考查非限制 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )性定语从句。因为这件事耽搁了18分钟,导致路线上其他火车的运行中断了。此处用which引导非限制性定语从句,指代前面的“An 18 minute delay”。
( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )四、短文改错
Alibaba founder Ja ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ck Ma, his company has been valued at more than $ 221 billion of which Ma owned 6%, is put in the top position among China's wealthiest. But he stays outside the list of the world's 10 rich people.
Fought against ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a hard life, young Ma still managed to learn English well enough to gain a degree and became a teacher. Afterwards he started a translation agency in which took him to the US, where he introduced to the Internet. His fate was bound to change before he was accidentally appointed to take an American visitor Jerry Yang, a co founder of Yahoo, in a tour of the Great Wall. The meeting obvious proved to be a turning point for all of them, promoting the birth of Alibaba and the later cooperation with Jerry Yang.
答案:
Alibaba founder Jack ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Ma, hiswhose company has been valued at more than $ 221 billion of which Ma ownedowns 6%, is put in the top position among China's wealthiest. But he stays outside the list of the world's 10 richrichest people.
FoughtFighting ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) against a hard life, young Ma still managed to learn English well enough to gain a degree and became a teacher. Afterwards he started a translation agency in which took him to the US, where he ∧was introduced to the Internet. His fate was bound to change beforewhen/after he was accidentally appointed to take an American visitor Jerry Yang, a co founder of Yahoo, into a tour of the Great Wall. The meeting obviousobviously proved to be a turning point for allboth of them, promoting the birth of Alibaba and the later cooperation with Jerry Yang.
解析:
第一处:his→whose 考 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )查定语从句。第一句话主干成分是Jack Ma is put in the top position,所以逗号后应该是定语从句,所以把his改为whose。
第二处:owned→owns 考查时态。由第一段时态可知。
第三处:rich→richest 考查形容词的最高级。世界上最富有的十个人,所以用最高级。
第四处:Fought→Fightin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g 考查非谓语动词。句子主语young Ma与fight之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用其 ing形式。
第五处:去掉which前的in 考 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )查定语从句。定语从句部分took him to the US缺少主语,所以用关系代词which。而in which相当于关系副词where。
第六处:introduced前加was 考查语态。此处是他被介绍到网络上,应该用被动语态。
第七处:before→when或after ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 考查连词。在他带领雅虎的创办人美国旅游家Jerry Yang游览长城时(后),他的命运必定会改变。
第八处:in→to 考查介词。分析句子,此处是与前面的took连在一起的,所以是take sb. to some place领某人去某地。
第九处:obvious→obviously 考查形容词与副词。修饰动词proved用副词。
第十处:all→both 考查代词。此处提到了两个人Jack Ma和Jerry Yang。【2016年高考考纲解读】
往年考查的重点是形容词和副词的比较级和 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )最高级的用法。近三年来考点开始涉及多个形容词作前置定语的排列顺序、形容词及形容词短语作状语,形容词和副词的词义比较和具体运用。要复习好这一块的知识,考生不仅要弄清其词形、词义、功能等基础知识,还要掌握同义词辨析和一词多义等重点知识。
【重点知识梳理】
一、形容词和副词的基本用法
1.形容词在句中的作用。
(1)形容词在句中可作定语、表语和补语。
(2)形容词在句中也可作状语,用来表示主语所处的状态。
He was lying in bed,dead.
(3)alone/afraid/a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sleep/awake/alive/ashamed/ill/well(身体好)等常用作表语而不用作定语。如:
He is an ill man.(错)
The man is ill.(对)
She is an afraid girl.(错)
The girl is afraid.(对)
(4)two year old/ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )200 metre long/one thousand word等复合形容词中的名词要用单数,一般只用作前置定语。如:
Tom is a two year old boy.
2.副词在句中的作用。
副词在句中一般用作状语,修饰动词、形容词或其他副词,也可修饰整个句子。如:
Obviously you are wrong.
二、常用连接性副词的用法
1.though用作副词时,常在句末,意为“然而,可是”,表示转折意义。
2.therefore“因此,所以”,表示结果。
3.meanwhile“与此同时,在此期间”,表示前后分句的动作同时发生。
4.moreover“另外”,表示承接关系。
5.however“然而”,表示让步、转折,常用逗号与句子的其他成分隔开。
6.besides“另外;还有”,表示递进关系。
7.instead“相反”,表示前后分句意义相反。
三、形容词、副词的比较级及最高级
1.平级比较
(1)as+形容词/副词原级+as像……一样
(2)as+adj.+a/an+名词+as像……一样的……
(3)as much+a/an+名词+as和……一样是……
(4)not as/so+形容词/副词原级+as...不如……那样……
①Henry is a worker as good as Peter (is).

Henry和Peter一样都是好工人。
②It is generally be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lieved that teaching is as much an art as it is a science.
人们普遍认为,教学是一门科学,同时也是一门艺术。
2.比较级
(1)the+比较级...,the+比较级...越……,越……
The more careful you are, the fewer mistakes you'll make.
你越仔细,你犯的错误越少。
(2)the+比较级+of the two+名词,表示“两个中较……的”。

他比姚明高多了。
但是very/quite/fairly一般不用来修饰比较级;最高级常用by far/much或序数词作状语。如:
The population of China is by far the largest in the world.
Africa is the second largest continent.
4.几种带有否定词的比较句型
(1)no better than表示“和……一样;实际等于……”。例如:
The patient is no better than he was yesterday.
病人的情况和昨天一样(不好)。
(2)no more...than表示“同……一样不”。例如:

鲸和马都不是鱼。
(3)no less... than表示“和……一样;不逊于”。例如:
The technique of w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )riting is no less difficult than that of the other arts.
写作技巧和其他艺术技巧一样困难。
5.比较级表达最高级含义
(1)“否定词+比较级”有最高级的含义。
Your story is perfect;I've never heard a better one before。
你的故事太完美了,我从来没有听到比这更好听的故事。
(2)比较级在以下几种句式中均表示最高级含义。

比较级+than+any of the other+复数名词
比较级+than+the rest of+复数名词或不可数名词

③The Yangtze River is three times the length of the Pearl River.
④The length of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Yangtze River is three times that of the Pearl River.
五、形容词作定语时的位置
1.通常置于所修饰的词之前,但不定代词的定语通常在后面。如:
Someone strange is asking to see you.
Something un ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )expected happened and we had to make some changes to our plan.
2.else常放在不定代词和疑问代词后面作定语。如:
No one else can answer the question.
3.多个形容词作定语时的词序为:大小、长短、高低形状/年龄、新旧颜色/来源、国籍、地区、出处/材料/用途。如:
an expensive Japa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nese sports car, those three beautiful large square old brown wood table.
【题型示例】
题型1、比较级、最高级的考查

A. a better B. the better C. a best D. the best
【答案】D
【变式探究】I think watching TV every evening is a waste of time—there are________(many) meaningful things to do.
【答案】more
【解析】本题考查形容词比较级。句意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ):我觉得每天晚上看电视是浪费时间——有更有意义的事可做。根据题干可看出和看电视相比有更有意义的事情,所以此处应用比较级。
【变式探究】Of the two ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) coats,I'd choose the ________ one to spare some money for a book.
A.cheapest B.cheaper
C.more expensive D.most expensive

A.better-known B.well-known
C.best-known D.most-known
【答案】C
【特别提醒】近几年有关比较 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )级的高考试题的特点是:试题考查间接化,即很少出现标志性单词as,than,而是通过设置语境,让考生来判断该用原级、比较级还是最高级,这种命题思路无疑增加了试题难度。
题型2、比较级、最高级前的修饰语
【例2】(2015·四川,7改 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )编)Andy is content with the toy.It is ________(good) he has ever got.
答案:the best 句意为:安迪对这个玩 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )具很满意。这是他所得到过的最好的玩具。该句中It是指上文提到的玩具,根据下文可知玩具应该有多个,而安迪最爱这一个,故用形容词的最高级,答案为the best,其后省略了名词toy。
【变式探究】 After two y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ears' research,we now have a ________ better understanding of the disease.(2013·全国Ⅱ)
A.very B.far C.fairly D.quite
【答案】B
【解析】从句中的信息词b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )etter可看出是考查比较级前的修饰语。为了突出强调或表示程度,比较级前可用much,far,a little,any,some,a bit,even,still,rather,a lot等词修饰;最高级前可被序数词及much,by far,nearly,almost等词修饰。注意A.very,C.fairly,D.quite不修饰比较级。
【变式探究】 —Are you feeling ________?
—Yes.I'm fine now.
A.any well B.any better C.quite good D.quite better
【答案】B
【解析】本题暗含比较级的用法,即与过去相比,感受如何。其中any修饰比较级。

题型3、比较结构中的名词的位置
【例3】 He never wrote ________ his first one again.
A.as good book as B.such good a book as
C.so good a book as D.such good book as
【答案】C
【解析】考查比较等级结构“as/so ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )+adj.+a(n)+单数可数名词+as”的用法。在此比较等级结构中,形容词应放在so/as的后面,故答案为C。
【变式探究】 I have worke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d with him for some time and have found that he is ________ than John.
A.more efficiently a worker B.a more efficient worker
C.more an efficient worker D.a worker more efficiently
【答案】B
【特别提醒】
比较结构中放入一个名词时的语序问题常常让人感到棘手,但只要记住了以下句型,问题便能迎刃而解:
(1)as/so+adj.+a/an+单数名词+as
He is as honest a man as you.
(2)a/an+比较级+adj.+单数名词+than
This is a more interesting story than that one.
(3)as many+复数名词+as;as much+不可数名词+as

答案:gradually 句意为: ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )这个女孩过去很害羞,但是她渐渐地积极参加集体活动并更愿意自我表现。根据句意可知该空修饰动词getting,故填副词gradually,意为“逐步地;渐渐地”。高考押题
