高考冲刺：英语选择题实战技巧
英语选择题答题技巧因为英语学科要说的明白，需要的篇幅较长，我尽量简化，同学们耐心看吧。当然，水平高的同学就不必看了。
1.做好英语选择题的前提
英语满篇都是选择题，貌似很好做，但是很多人确实丢分丢的厉害。究竟是什么原因呢?今天不讨论这些，但是要强调一点：英语做题的出发点是以其母语为出发点的。
英语的特性是直来直往，是非常讲究客观的，但是我们容易接受的思维却极其主观的，因此许多同学在读懂题目的情况下仍然对着选项模棱两可，导致丢分，就是因为很多选项从主观意思上去想都是成立的，但是从客观描述上题目并没有讲到。
单选、完形也存在这么些情况，很多时候大家题目看的很顺，甚至每个单词都认识，但是一看选项傻眼了，这是因为没有抓住语义做题，具体原因也不多做分析了，其实大家心里都有个数。
做好英语的前提第一是保持客观性，这也是做好任何学科选择题的前提。英语做题的另一个重点是讲究用语义做题。
2.淡化语法结构分析，转为语法客观理解
当前最首要的是要淡化语法结构分析，转为客观理解语法：现在大家都落入到语法结构分析的套路中去，始终弄不明白各种繁杂的语法。语法书都是翻开任何一本语法书，有薄于100页的吗，即使你通读下来，有帮助吗?因为我们总是单独的去看一个独立的语法点，从来没有去理清这些语法之间的关系。
先看这句话，Although she is beautiful, but I cannot marry her.大家都知道这句话是错的，因为although和but不能连用，但是，你想过为什么不能一起用吗?再看这句话：I see a girl is beautiful. 大家应该知道这句话是错的，甚至有些同学可以告诉我，这句话应该改成I see a girl who is beautiful.的定语从句，水平再高一点的同学会告诉我，这句话还可以改成I see a girl being beautiful.的非谓语动词形式，谁能告诉我这句话为什么不对?就是因为你说不出为什么不对，你才会在紧张的高考做题中不断出错，其实，客观的理解高中英语语法乃至整个英语语法最本质也是最核心的一句话就是“一句话有且只有一个谓语”，也就是说，没有谓语不行，但多了也不行，see已经充当谓语，后面的is就要降低身份，而降低身份只有两种方法，一种是变成从句，另一种是非谓语动词，于是才有了后面的一系列语法。现在再回头想想为什么although和but不能同时用，也就容易明白了，当你按照这个思路把整个高中语法做成一张图，怎么考也不会再害怕了。
英语时态是最常考的问题，高中要求大家熟练掌握六种时态，过去完成时、一般过去时、现在完成时、一般现在时、现在进行时和一般将来时，还有两种时态可能考到，但要求不高，即将来完成时和将来进行时，我们学习的时候一定是这样学的，“现在完成时主要有两种用法，一种是过去发生的动作持续到现在，一种是过去发生的动作没有持续到现在但是对现在产生影响，”会做题了吗?会写句子了吗?还是不会!结果老师又要你每个时态背一堆时间状语!假设你全都背下来了，能做题吗?大家看看下面这句话对不对：I knew you’ve already done it.注意，有already喔!
如果你觉得上一句没错，再看这句对不对：I knew you’d already done it.好像不对。因为大家只记得看到already要选现在完成时。但是，第二句才是正确的写法，这里只能用过去完成时!为什么你会选错?因为你依然没有将所有时态之间联系起来，只是孤立地背诵每一种时态，结果必然惨败。我们要从语义上判断时态。大家请客观的认识时态的本质：时态并不是反映了时间状语，而是反映了动作发生的先后顺序，换句话说，当我们叙述一连串的动作时，要按照这样的顺序：had done – did – have done – do – will do，上句说“我知道你已经做
过了”，“知道”用了一般过去时，“做”是在知道以前发生的动作，所以往回推一格，就剩had done。依此类推，所有的时态考题可轻易拿下，本质上还是根据语义做题。知道了这个原理，试着做一下这道题
— Have you known Dr. Jackson for a long time?
—Yes, since she ______ the Chinese Society.
A. has joined
B. joins
C. had joined
D. joined
3.介词的理解
介词的重要性毋庸置疑，无论是单选还是完形，甚至写作用好了介词，能够盘活一篇枯燥的作文，其作用比语法实用，考试可以不做语法分析，但是不能对介词不理解。我们学习介词的过程中始终只记得意思或者作为一个固定搭配词组的附属词记忆，这都是本末倒置的，一个固定搭配或词组的灵魂在介词，而不是这个动词，希望大家从意思上去从新理解介词，掌握他的特性。
4.选择题实战技巧
英语题的暗示性很强的，几乎所有文章都这模样：
转折、关联词必有暗示如but，also，although;指代词必有暗示如which，who，that，it，where等;关系词、连接词必有暗示如and，as，as a resout等;疑问词如why，why not等。剩下的是介词，如up、down，off等。这些暗示不是在原文中就是在选项中，因此，做英语题，完全可以根据暗示快速做题。当然必须结合语义做题，才能100%正确。假设我读不是很懂这篇，但是完全可以这么读，我都读成这德性了，但是依旧可以把题做出来。我工作在什么附近，在捡垃圾，我怎么着()擦汗我的额头，并抬头看天，( )不下雨?我想，那将( )东西down，我开始想念我的( )谁可能坐在( )现在。我存在一些问题在学校，( )我父母决定让我( )和我爸爸一起，我们都为叔叔工作，谁( )公司，……保持路面( )of垃圾，工作怎么( )和脏，尤其是热天( )这里。
我们继续( )这条什么街，( )过桥。我看到一个地方一些( )坏在路上，不像平时那样。
……我想( )什么东西out，…………一些东西告诉我( )，没太多时间了。( )我看到一个什么( )怎么着在树里面，可能是一部偷来的车( )那，我想，那时，就在那( )，我看见什么动了。……后面是描述一个人的不翻译了。
有些题可能比较难找暗示，可以先放着，看到后文就能明白了。希望谁照着试做一遍，把答案回复上来。
这么读下来费事不费事?几乎看一遍就下来了，再把选项略微翻译下，什么答案都出来了。并且上下文联系的紧密读和暗示性足够，做题根本不是问题。
大家可以翻任何一道题，考固定搭配的极少，介词稍微一理解，就完了，几乎都是靠语义做题结合上下文的暗示点就能完成。如单选我举几道题：
1.— Have you heard the latest news?
—No, what ______
A. is it
B. is there
C. are they
D. are those
直接把复数的排除，news不用管它的形式。
2.Some pre-school children go to a day care center, ____ they learn simple games and songs.
A. then
B. there
C. while
D. where
不用看完了go to一定是地点，选D
3.—It’s a long time since I saw my sister. —_________ her this weekend’?
A. Why not visit
B. Why not to visit
C. Why not visiting
D. Why don’t visit
选项都是why not，直接排除D，why not+原形这个不会就没话说了。
4. —How’s your tour around the North Lake? Is it beautiful? —It_______ be, but it is now
heavily polluted. A. will B. would C. should D. must 意思不确定，发在now之前，选B结束。
5. “Goodbye, then,” she said, without even ________ from her book.
A. looking down
B. looking up
C. looking away
D. looking on
语义，甚至头也不抬。
其实英语内容并不多，要理解的也不多，只是大多数学生忽略了学习英语过程中，最基本的元素就是语义。能大致弄懂意思，就可以变成纯中文题了，至于语法之类的，看完考卷，你给我说说所占比例究竟有多少?丢了也比其他不会做的强，何况语法稍微了解下，就可建立在语义上做题。
大家做题要善于找暗示，还要学会读自己能够读懂的单词，别害怕这个词陌生，老是猜测这个词什么意思，很多情况下不读生词完全能够通过其他字面的翻译做题的，当然，选项看不懂的，拿两个硬币丢吧。
高考英语单项选择题命题技巧及答题策略
一、命题原则
突出语境，强化语意，强调运用
二、单项选择题命题特点
覆盖面广，重点突出
突出在语境中运用知识的考查
淡化语法结构，重视能力
三、英语单项选择解题技巧
(一)分析句子结构
1.This is the main use that the scientists make______ natural resources.
A. in
B. up of
C. from
D. of
有些试题的考本来十分简单, 但命题者却通过使用定语从句,或者将我们十分熟悉的固定词组有意拆开,重新组合,使我们在结构上产生错觉。that the scientists make…是定语从句,关系代词that是代表先行词use的,将其置入定语从句中,就得到that the scientists make use..显然是考查make use of 这一词组。正确答案是D。
(二)找准关键词语
2.It is______ any wonder that his friend doesn't like watching television much.
A. no
B. such
C. nearly
D. hardly
此题的关键词是any, 因为any常用于疑问句、否定句或条件句中,而此句不是疑问句，也不是条件句,所以应该是否定句。no本身就相当于not any，于是排除A。.因此，正确答案D(hardly=almost not)。
(三)补全省略成分
3.---What do you think made Mary so upset?
--- ______her new bike.
A. Lost
B. As she lost
C. Losing
D. Because of losing
口语中会使用一些省略句，作题是若将被省略的成分补充完整，答案就会一目了然。此题将答句补全，就是Losing her new bike made Mary so upset。显然，只能选C，用动名词作主语。
(四)适当转换句式
4.---Mr. Wang ,whom would you rather ______ the important meeting?
---Tom.
A. have attend
B. have attended
C. having attend
D. have to attend
有时将题干的句式转换成自己更熟悉的句式，就很容易选出正确答案。如：将疑问句、强调句、感叹句或倒装句改为陈述句，将被动句改为主动句，将无序句调整为正常句。此题若将疑问句改为陈述句，就是I have Tom attend the important meeting。其中would rather 后必须跟动词原形，have sb do sth.所以选A。
(五)注意标点符号
5.There are eight tips in Dr. Roger’s lecture on sleep, and one of them is:______ to bed early unless you think it is necessary.
A. doesn’t go
B. not to go
C. not going
D. don’t go
标点有时对我们作题有提示的作用。此题很容易选B,认为是不定式做表语。其实冒号已经表明后面是Dr.Roger讲的原话，这原话应当是个句子，只有选D才构成一个否定的祈使句。
(六)删除干扰部分
6.We agree to accept______ they thought was the best tourist guide.
A. whichever
B. whoever
C. whatever
D. whomever
就是将起干扰作用的定语从句、介词短语或插入语，如I think/ suppose/believe，do you think/ suppose/believe，you know，of course等删除，从而更容易地选出正确答案。此题去掉插入语they thought ，可知宾语从句缺主语，又能与the best tourist guide 搭配的，只有答案B。
(七)利用对称结构
7.---English has a large vocabulary, hasn't it?
---Yes. ______ more words and expressions and you will find it easier to read and communicate.
A. Know
B. Knowing
C. To know
D. Known
就是在作题的过程中要善于利用and, but等并列连词。若前面是个句子，后面也是个句子，反之亦然;若连接的是几个动词，这几个动词也必定是同一时态或同一形式。此题第二个and后面是个句子，所以前面也必定是一个句子，但是前面这个句子没有主语，只能选用动词原形，构成一个祈使句，因此答案是A。
又如：On Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Green went to the market, ______some bananas and visited her cousin.
A. bought
B. buying
C. to buy
D. buy
(八)检查有无谓语
8.He wrote five novels, two of ______translated into English.
A. it
B. them
C. which
D. that
有时看似有两个句子，于是就选连词，正好掉进命题人设计的陷阱。事实上，有时貌似句子的“句子”却没有谓语，其中的动词只是一个非谓语动词(多为分词)。此题很容易误选C，以为后面是非限制性定语从句。事实上，translated是过去分词，而不是谓语动词，后面不是句子，无须连词，所以答案是B。若在translated前加上were，were translated就是谓语，这时就选连词which。
(九)熟记固定搭配
9.Mr. Smith used to smoke ______ but he has given it up.
A. seriously
B. heavily
C. badly
D. hardly
在平时的学习中注意积累一些常见的固定句式、动词与副词的搭配、名词和形容词的搭配等。因为指烟瘾或酒瘾很重，要用heavy或heavily ，因此答案是B。此外，雨雪下得“大”、
烟雾“浓”、交通“拥挤”、波涛“汹涌”等，也用heavy。
(十)消除思维定势
10.Everyone here will thank the firefighter for the things they have done to prevent fires______ the environment safer.
A. make
B. to making
C. to make
D. from making
有些试题的题干，看上去好象就是固定搭配，我们高兴地完成以后，结果却做错了。要从句子结构上或者句子意思上分析，以免步入命题者设计的陷阱。此题容易误选D，以为是考查prevent sb. /sth. from doing 这一固定搭配的。其实，“使环境更安全”是“他们为防火所做的工作”的目的，所以用动词不定式，选C。
(十一)查看有无连词
11.If an excellent Chinese novel is translated into English, ______means many more people in the world can enjoy it.
A. as
B. which
C. what
D. that
若经查实，前后的确是两个句子，就要看其中一个分句是否已经用了连词。若已经用了连词，一般不选连词，若没有用连词，就一定要选连词。此题已有连词If，选D，若没有If，就选B，which引导一个非限制性定语从句。
(十二)正确把握语境
12. I agree with most of what you said, but I don’t agree with ______.
A. everything
B. anything
C. something
D. nothing
有时孤立地看留空格的那个句子，好象多个答案都可以，但与上下句的意思联系起来，就会发现问题。因此，做题时一定要把握语境。此题答案选A。B答案的意思是I don’t agree with anything 等于I agree with nothing.这就与前一分句的意思发生矛盾了。
(十三)识别相似句型
13. ______is known to everybody, light travels much faster than sound.
A. It
B. As
C. That
D. What
14.______is known to everybody that light travels much faster than sound.
A. It
B. As
C. That
D. What
15. _____ is known to everybody is that light travels much faster than sound.
A. It
B. As
C. That
D. What
有的句型十分相似，若不仔细分辨，很容易出错。13题选B，as引导一个非限定性定语从句，先行词是后面整个句子。14题选A，it是形式主语，that引导主语从句;15题在that 前加个is，则应选D，what引导的是主语从句，that引导的是表语从句。
四、方法归纳
分析法：分析句子结构或语言习惯，使句子“合法”。
排除法：排除句子中某些附加成分，使其简单直接。
补全法：补全省略部分，连接思维序列中的断点。
推断法：根据上下文依据，判断空格所依据的信息。
还原法：通过转换句型还原句子本来面目，以便理解句意。
高考英语阅读理解题策略与技巧
一、考点分类：人物故事类，社会文化类，科普知识类，新闻广告类，介绍说明类，节能环保类
二、解题方法：
（1）理解主旨和要义；
任何一篇文章都会有一个主旨要义。有时从文章的第一个段落，甚至第一个句子即可得出文章的主旨要义，从这一段或这个句子读者会知道文章描述的是谁或什么（即文章的主题），亦会了解作者希望读者了解主题方面的哪些内容。有时，文章的主旨要义则需从文章的字里行间进行推断。这类试题主要考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力，它对考生的归纳、概括能力有一定的要求。
（2）理解文中具体信息；
文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持，这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要，同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人员往往会要求考生根据不同的要求，阅读文章以获得某些特定的信息或准确地寻求所需的细节。这类试题有时比较直接，理解字面意思即可答题；有时则较为间接，需要归纳、概括和推理才能答题。
（3）根据上下文推断生词的词义；
正确理解文章中单词或短语的含义是理解文章的第一步，也是理解文章的基础，不懂单词含义根本就谈不上理解文章。但英语单词的含义并非完全等同于词典中所标注的汉语意思，其含义随不同的语境会有所不同。能根据上下文正确理解灵活变化的词义，才算是真正初步具备了一定的阅读理解能力。此外，阅读文章时，常常会遇到一些过去未见过的词，但许多这类生词的词义可以通过上下文推断出来。这种不使用词典而通过阅读上下文来推断生词含义的能力，是一个合格的读者所必须具备的能力，因此也是阅读测试中经常检测的一种能力。
（4）作出简单判断和推理；
阅读文章的主要目的是获取信息，即作者所要传达的信息。在实际的阅读活动中，有时需要根据文章提供的事实和线索，进行逻辑推理，推测作者未提到的事实或某事发生的可能性等。
（5）理解文章的基本结构；
英语文章讲究使用主题段和主题句。主题段通常在文章开头，简要概括文章的中心思想，主题句可能在一段的开头，也可能在中间或末尾，作用是交代该段的中心思想，再由全段展开或讨论这个意思。各个段落通常由某些起连接作用的词语连接，以使文章行文连贯。如果希望准确、深刻地理解一篇文章，必须对文章的结构有所了解，把握住全篇的文脉，即句与句、段与段之间的逻辑关系。
（6）理解作者的意图、观点和态度。
每篇文章都有一个特定的写作目的，或是向读者传递某个信息，或是愉悦读者，或是讲授某个道理。而这些信息通常并不是明确表达出来，而是隐含在文章之中。因此，这类问题要求考生在理解文章总体内容的基础上，去领会作者的言外之意。”
三、英语阅读中存在的问题主要有：
1. 读完文章后缺乏对文章的整体把握，头脑中只有零散的信息或模糊的概念。
2. 信息捕捉不准，做题凭感觉，缺乏依据。
3. 对于能捕捉到的信息，缺乏必要的处理能力，经常断章取义。
4. 遇到难题心理紧张，思维混乱；遇到容易题时，又往往掉以轻心，跌入命题者设下的陷阱。
四、解题步骤：
第一步：通读全文，把握文章大意
拿到阅读篇章，第一步就是要求通读全文，力争把握文章体裁和脉络，做到能够回答when(故事发生的时间)、where(故事发生的地点)、who(文章的主人公)和what(文章讲述了什么事情)等问题。
第二步：细读题干，查寻转换内容
把握文章大意后，必须把注意力集中到文章题目上来，对于题干内容，必须要提炼出最能够说明问题的词、词组或者句型，然后再在这个基础上从文章中找出同义词、词组或者句型，这一遍带着目的读文章必须是字斟句酌、非常仔细。
第三步：扫读语块，搜索有效信息
刚才我们已经在文章中找到了与题干吻合的单词、词组或者句型，在这个吻合单词、词组或者句型周围扫描，力争找到能够说明问题，帮助选择正确答案的信息。
第四步：查读题项，定位正确答案
在第三步搜索到有效信息的基础上，进入了最后的攻坚阶段，即临门一脚、找出正确答案的阶段，在这一阶段，有时会发现问题解决起来就不难了。

2011年高考英语阅读七选五专项训练（10题）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 专项练习一 For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans．1 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today．Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world．Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829． 2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847．Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business．This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention．After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes．Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals．Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners．At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth． 3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners．These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more． In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）．This made the pants last a long time．Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent． 4 ． By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion． 5 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world． A．As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States． ！ B．Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable． C．He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since． D．However, he did not get much business for those products． E．He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry． F．Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture． G．As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it．
