全国通用2011届高考英语语法专题名师导读精析精练集:形容词、副词
高考考点导向
对形容词和副词的考查力度会保持相对稳定,词义辨析、形容词、副词比较级和最高级的用法仍会是考查热点,尤需注意比较级在特定结构中的含义与结构省略。此外也要掌握多个形容词修饰同一名词时的排列次序。形容词及副词的考题在单项选择中原则上会出现,不 超过15道题的题量,不可能每年都考查到,但在完形填空和短文改错中肯定会考查。
高考考题解析
[考题1](NMET典型例题 It's always difficult being in a foreign country,_________if you don't speak the language.
A.extremely B.naturally C.basically D.especially
[解析]句意是“在国外生活总是困难重重,特别是你如果不会说这种语言的话。”表示特别在某种状况下,需用especially。选项A中的extremely表示“非常地”,选项B中的naturally表示“自然地”,选项C中的basically表示“基本地;基础地”。
[答案]D
[考题2](NMET 典型例题 _________to take this adventure course will certainly learn a lot of useful skills.
A. Brave enough students B. Enough brave students
C. Students brave enough D. Students enough brave
[解析]enough修饰形容词时其位置应在形容词的后面,因此可排除B、D两项。从题干结构来看,students应是句子主语,修饰主语的brave enough相当于一个定语从句,其位置应在主语后面。
[答案]C
[考题3](NMET 典型例题t is generally believed that teaching is _________it is a science.
A. an art much as B. much an art as
C. as an art much as D. as much an art as
[解析]本题主要涉及副词的同级比较以及同级比较中插入名词、冠词后的语序问题。 as...as结构形式如下:as + adj. +a/an+ n. +as...或as + adv.+as。例如:
He is as clever a boy as you.
选项D正好与此结构相符。
类似用法的还有:how,so,too等。例如:How clever a girl she is!
[答案]D

A. more B. much
C. many D. most
[解析]句意是:许多人拿罐头食品提供了帮助,但穷人需要更多的库存食物。food bank指“库存食物”,bank此处是“库,库存”。在本句中,many people与the poor进行比较,所以要用比较级more。
[答案]A
[考题5](典型例题)
I am surprised that you should have been fooled by such a (an)_________trick.
A. ordinary B. easy C. smart D. simple
[解析]句意是:你被如此简单的一种诡计所愚弄,我真感到惊奇。simple表示“简单的,不复杂的”,易被“破解”的。选项C中的smart表示“聪明的”,ordinary意思为“平常的”,而具迷惑性的easy指“容易的”,易被“理解”的。例如:The text is easy (difficult) to understand.

[答案]B
[考题12](典型例题)

A. close B. closely C. closed D. closing
[解析]close和closely皆可作副词,但意义有别:close指“近地”“接/靠近地”;closely常用比喻性意义,意为“密切地”。Close to意为“接近”,本句中做状语。本题题意是“天下着大雨。小玛丽感到很冷,所以她紧紧地站在母亲身旁。”
[答案]A

但要注意下列句型:

A. much too heavy B. too much heavy
C. heavy too much D. to heavy much
[解析]此题考查词汇知识。语法环境是在系表结构be + adj.中adj.的修饰词问题。语言环境是“日常生活中的乘出租车”问题。利用词语辨析即可获解。而且该题所考查的词组,最容易排除的便是C、D两项,在这两个选项中,词的修饰关系非常混乱,故为错误选
项;B项too为“太……”,much为修饰不可数名词的“多……”,因此too much应该用来修饰不可数名词,意为“太多的……”,如:too much money;too much time,其近义词为too many“太多……”,如:too many people;too many books等。答案应为A。much too与后面的to构成“too...to...”结构意为“太……而不能……”,从而判断出修饰heavy的核心应是too,much是进一步限制too。
[答案]A

10. There are things people accept less _________you defend them.
A. as B. while C. the moment D. the more
参考答案
1.B.从句提示的信息是:即使John足球踢得不比David好的话,至少也踢得与他一样好。这是表示双方在程度或特征等某方面不相上下。
2.A.“Of the two shirts”这一前置句首的介词短语所提示的语境是:选择的范围就在这两件衬衫之间。因此可排除B、D两个选项,而被选中的那一件属特指,因此需在名词前用定冠词,故选A:the less expensive。
3.B.前一空待选项所修饰的是单数可数名词country,因此需用形容词such。后一空待选项所修饰的是复数意味的集合名词people前的many。当复数名词前有many、few,不可数名词前有much,little等表示“量”的形容词时,该用so而不用such。
4.B.本题中三个形容词,last属序数词类,few属基数词类,sunny属描述性类形容词。当有多个形容词修饰同一名词时,种类不同,其次序如何排列,其原则是按照越表示人(或物)内在特征的,其位置则越靠近被修饰的那个词语。
5.B.此句中表示的意义是“天太晚,赶不上公交车了。”选项C的toomuch的意思是“许多”“大量的”,有超过某种需要与程度的含义(more than enough),这一结构中的中心词是形容词的原级much,too是修饰much的,表示强调。
6.D.“a better voice”是“比她唱得更好”的另一种说法。此题并没有直接表明比较的范围和对象,而是通过上下文所提示的语境做出暗示,进行比较,所以需用形容词的比较级来修饰名词voice(嗓音)。
7.D.此题的主语是book,其后的of this writer是对前面主语做出限定,用最高级修饰book,说明该作家最著名的一本书是“East and West”。B选项用his..。句型,句中结构不对。
8.C题干中“Betty had made there'’是定语从句,其先行词是friends。全句句意为:Betty在那儿结交的为数不多的朋友都被邀请来参加她的生日聚会。
9.D.almost不可与not连用,not nearly相同于hardly,not nearly...意思为:远远不(够)。此题考查对副词的理解和运用。
10.D.本句句意为“有些事你越为它们辩解,人们越不愿接受”。people would...是定语从句,修饰the things。
