高考英语：考点语法填空11招，让你一分不丢！

高考语法填空题考查过的考点有：时态和语态、非谓语动词、助动词、形容词、

副词、名词、冠词、代词、介词、连词、连接词、关系词、祈使句。

这些考点共涉及到《英语课程标准》中的19个语法项目，暂时在高考中没有考

到的语法项目有：数词、省略、倒装、强调、虚拟语气。另外，动词中的情态动词以

及除一般现在时、一般过去时和现在完成时外的时态目前均没有在高考中考查过。

本题型分两种情况：一种为有提示词，一种为无提示词。

有提示词题型

这种考查形式主要考查词性转换、名词单复数变化、形容词或副词的比较级与最

高级变化、动词的时态和语态(含主谓一致)以及动词的非谓语形式。这类题同样需

先判断设空处在句中的功能，其次再确定该用什么形式。

提示词是动词

动词的变化是语法填空题考查的重点之一。提示词为动词时可能考查谓语动词、

非谓语动词或名词等。

a.考查谓语动词时需考虑时态、语态、主谓一致等。如：

Steamengines(use)topullthecarriagesanditmusthavebeen...

解析：此处描述后是1863年伦敦地铁的情况，主语Steamengines是复数，且是

谓语动词use所表示动作的承受者，故填wereused。

b.考查非谓语动词时需考虑用动词-ing形式、过去分词还是不定式，同时还要考

虑非谓语动词的时态和语态。如：

[例1]Myambassadorialdutieswillinclude________(introduce)Britishvisitorsto

the120-pluspandasatChengduandothersataresearchcentre...

解析：设空处作宾语，且表示多次重复发生的动作，故填introducing。

[例2]Skilledworkersalsocombinevarioushardwoodsandmetal________(create)

specialdesigns.

解析：workers与create之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，且此处表目的，故填tocreate

c.考查名词时需注意名词的数。如：

Magically,thatshowremainstheGreatJason'sbest________(perform)tothisday.

解析：由theGreatJason'sbest可知设空处应填名词且意为“表演"，再根据thatshow

remains可知应用单数形式,故填performanceo

2提示词是形容词

此时可能考查提示词的反义词、副词、比较等级或名词等。

a.考查提示词的反义词时需根据文章逻辑判断。如：

Aperson'sweightisprivate,andmakingcommentsaboutitisdefinitelyconsidered

(polite).

麻就：由private(私密的)可知，评论别人的体重被认为是不礼貌的，故填

impolite

b.考查副词时，设空处修饰动词、形容词或整个句子。如：

Thetitlewillbe________(official)giventomeataceremonyinLondon.

解析：设空处修怖谓语句词，故填副词。fficially。

c.考查比较等级时，应考虑用比较级还是最高级。如：

第2页共27页

Ifyoufeelstressedbyresponsibilitiesatwork,youshouldtakeastepbackand

identify(识另U)thoseof________(great)andlessimportance.

解析：and连接并列成分，由and后的less可知应填great的比较级greater。此处

意为“识别较重要的和不太重要的”。

d.考查名词时，需注意名词的数。如：

Inadditiontotheirsimplebeauty,whatmakestheadobedwellingsadmirableistheir

__(able)to“aircondition“ahousewithoutusingelectricequipment.

一薜柝：设空处意为“能力”,即不用电器就能调节室温的这一种能力，故填ability。

3提示词是副词

此时可能考查比较等级或其反义形式。如：

[例1]We*vebeendescribingNewZealandasarockstarinthesensethatithasbeen

doing(well)thanalmostalloftheotherdevelopedworldeconomiesoverthe

pastcoupleofyears.

解析♦：由than可知此处需填比较级，且此处意为“做得更好"，故填well的比较级

bettero

[例2]Hewaswellhidden,butatlasthewas________(luckily)found.

解析：由wellhidden和but可知，此处意为“不幸地被发现了“，故填unluckilyo

4提示词是名词

此时可能考查名词的数或形容词。如：

a.名词的数通常需要根据主语、谓语、定语等来判断。如：

[例1]Thistrend...hashadsomeunintendedside________(effect)suchas

overweightandheartdisease-theverythingthemedicalcommunitywastryingtofight.

解析：由some及overweightandheartdisease可知，”这个趋势有一些没有预料到

的负作用“，故填effect的复数形式effects。

[例2]Itranforjustundersevenkilometersandallowedpeopletoavoidterrible

________(crowd)ontheroadsabove...

SS：由形容词terrible和括号中的crowd可知，此处应填名词，意为“人群”；作

此义项讲时crowd是可数名词，再结合句意可知应填其复数形式crowds。

b.形容词通常作定语或表语。如：

As________(nature)architects,thePuebloIndiansfiguredoutexactly...

解析：设空处作定语修饰名词architects,故填natural(天生的)。

无提示词题

这种形式考查的内容主要是冠词、介词、助动词、连词、关系词和固定结构等。

因为没有提示词，所以考生需要根据一些固定结构、短文大意、上下文的逻辑关系及

对一些长难句结构的分析来确定所填内容。

5考查冠词

主要考查冠词的基本用法及短语中的冠词。如：

Thenurseryteamswitcheshimeveryfewdayswithhissistersothatwhileoneis

beingbottle-fed,otheriswithmum一sheneversuspects.

解析：短语one…theother…意为"一个...另一个....”，符合题意，故填the。

6考查介词

主要考查介词的基本用法及短语中的介词。如：

DrinkingmyicedcoffeeIranmyfingersalongthestreetsthehoteltothe

operahall.

解析：此处意为“从...到...."，故填from。

7考查助动词

第3页共27页

需要找出所缺成分并考虑时态。如：

Thenthedriverstoodupandasked,“anyoneloseasuitcaseatthelaststop?”

解析：由asked和问号可知引号中向石至个疑问句，同时分析句子结构可知设空

处需填助动词，再由句中的laststop可知句中的谓语应用一般过去时，故填Dido

8考查连词

包括并列连词和从属连词。如：

Imademywaybackstagejustthegreatmagicianwasputtingonhistophat.

解析：设空处引导状语从句，目显意为“正当……时”，故填as/when。

9考查连接词

包括连接代词和连接副词。如：

It'samazing________oftenpeoplesay“IfIcanhelpjustone

解析：设空通百壬语从句，且修饰often,故填how。

10考查关系词

关键在于分析句子结构并找出先行词。如：

...thering...wasspreadoverthegarden,________itremaineduntilthecarrot's

leafytopaccidentallysprouted（生长）throughit.

解析：设空处引导非限制性定语从句修饰先行词garden,且在从句中作地点状语、

故填whereo

11考查固定结构

包括固定短语和句型。如：

Pahlssonscreamed________loudlythatherdaughtercamerunningfromthehouse.

解析：分析句子正而司而，此处考查so...that...句型，意为“如此……以致

于...so修饰副词loudlyo
