江苏省2015高考英语单项选择训练(9)及答案
江苏省溧阳市2015高考英语单项选择训练（9）及答案 江苏省2015高考英语课时作业及解析09 Ⅰ.单项填空 1．He felt very sad that though he worked very _______indeed，he was not able to jump _____. A．hardly；high B．hard；high C．hardly；highly D．hard；highly 答案B[有些考生可能会认为动词后面应用副词修饰，而形容词后面加-ly就成副词了，于是错选A、C或D。其实，hard和high都既可作形容词，也可作副词。hard作形容词时意为“坚硬的；难懂的”，作副词时，意为“努力地；猛烈地”；而hardly是副词，意为“几乎不”；high作形容词时，意为“高的，有……高度的”，作副词时意为“在高处，向高处”； 而highly是副词，意为“高度地”，表示抽象意义。根据句子语境可知，正确答案为B。] 2．The case is being looked into；a team consisting of top Chinese police officers will leave for Japan soon to ________the truth. A．uncover B．recover C．indicate D．represent 答案A[句意：这个案子正在调查中，由中国高级警官组成的调查团很快将赴日本揭开事实真相。uncover“揭露”；recover“恢复”；indicate“指示”；represent“代表，象征”。故选A项。] 3．By the time my friend gets to Australia next Sunday，I________for America. A．will have left B．might have left C．will leave D．am leaving 答案A [考查动词的时态。句意：当我的朋友下周日到达澳大利亚时，我也已经离开去了美国。by the time用作连词，引导时间状语从句，意为“到……时候”，当它引导的从句的时态用一般现在时时，主句的时态通常用将来完成时。此处指到下周日“我”将已经去了美国，故用将来完成时。] 4．________money is concerned，I always try to be very careful. A．Where B．When C．Why D．How 答案A[句意：凡是涉及钱的地方，我总是尽量小心谨慎。where...is concerned＝as far as...is concerned“就……而言”。] 5．—Why did you refuse to move into the office? —Because it was really in a poor ________and dirty. A．form B．situation C．shape D．state 答案D[in any form/shape“某事物的任何形式”；in the shape/form of“以……的形式”；in a situation“处于……的境地；陷入……的状况”；in a poor state“处于糟糕、混乱或不整洁 的状态”。句意：——你为什么拒绝搬进办公室？——因为它真的很破很脏。]
2015江苏高考英语阅读理解C句子成分分析
Suppose you become a leader in an organization. It’s very likely 主语that you’ll want to have volunteers to help with the organization’s activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work主语. Let’s begin with the question of why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate people to get involved定语. For example, people volunteer to express personal values 定语related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships宾语. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need to understand the motivations of the people you wish to attract定语. People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people’s wish of participation 状语from an internal factor (e.g., “I volunteer because it’s important to me”) to an external factor (e.g., “I volunteer because I’m required to do so”).When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this

(完整)做好高考英语完形填空的14种技巧
做好高考英语完形填空的14种技巧 1?跳读首尾句进行预测一般来讲，高考完形填空的首、尾句通常是不挖空的。先跳读这两句J便可判断体裁，猜想它要讲什么。若首句交代了When J where, who, What，即四个W，那么就是记叙文，很可能就是一个故事，为了测试语篇的理解能力，出题者特别注意选材的趣味性，其结尾往往出人意料，耐人寻味；若首句是提出或解释说明某事物，一般来说是说明文；若首句提出一个论点，那么就是议论文。 首句往往开宗明义，是文章的主题。细读首句可启示全文。而尾句又往往是对 文章主题的总结。所以，它们是了解文章大意的一个窗口，对我们理解全文有着重 要的启示作用。因此，要充分利用段首句提供的信息，去挖掘文章的思路，寻找文 章的脉络与线索。 EVel yn Glennie WaS the first IaCly Of SOIO PerCUSSi On in SCOtIancl .In an in terview, She recalled how She became a PerCUSSi On SOIOiS 打（击乐器独奏演员）in SPite Of her CliSabiIity.本文主要讲述的是苏格兰第一位女打击乐器独奏演员EVel yn GIe nnie在耳聋的情况下成功学习打击乐器的经历。根据首句给出的信息，下面我们可以猜想EVeIyn GIe nnie学习打击乐器过程必然充满困难，而能够在耳聋的情况下学习打击乐器，EVeIyn GIennie对音乐肯定也是充满热情的。 2.利用语法分析解题完形填空虽然以语境填空为主，但也有部分考查语法项目的 题目。对于这 类题，考生可以利用平时所学的词汇知识，分析单词（组）的使用范围、动词的及物和不及物，并利用句子结构、句式特点等知识全面衡量所有选项排除干扰。如：__ 51 ____ do you SUPPOSe he asked for them? 51 ? A. What B. HOW C. WhO D. WhiCh 【解析】本题中，do you SUPPOSe为插入成分。he asked for them是一个相对独立和完整的句子，因此空格处应该用副词HOW来修饰谓语动词asked,而不能用代词What5 WhO或WhiChO __ 8 ____ I had been born in the 16th CentUry J I WOUICl have had no job. 8.A. BeCaUSe B. While C. If D. SinCe 【解析】根据后面的I had been born in the 16th CentUry可知这只是个假设 5 是一个虚拟语气的条件句。故前面要用if引导。 3.利用固定搭配解题完形填空题中对词汇知识的考查，主要体现在习惯用法和 同义词、近义词 的辨析两方面。习惯用法是英语中某种固定的结构形态，即所谓的“习语"，不能随意改动。所以，考生平时应掌握好习惯用法。对词义辨析题的考查有加大力度的趋势。要做好这类题，需要有较大的词汇量和词语搭配能力、词语辨

2015江苏高考英语D篇翻译
Freedom and Responsibility Freedom’s challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic. We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it. Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no freedom. There were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies, one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses. In Greece, in Athens (雅典), a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses. And Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert.The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens, not because it was forced on him from the outside, but because the city was his pride and his safety. The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state. But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers. It cannot be discovered once for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will go. Constant watch is its price. Athens changed. It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance, a spiritual change which affected
