2020年北京市新高考适应性测试分析
本套试题全面考查了学科素养，立足全面发展育人目标，落实构建德智体美劳全面培养教育体系，以立德树人为教育根本任务，进一步深化了考试内容改革。
1、试卷的选材，围绕人与自然、人与社会、人与自我三大主题全面考查英语综合运用能力，取材广泛、体裁多样、时代性强。
①在宣传劳动精神方面，2020年北京高考适应性测试体现在小作文的题目上：要求考生写参加“学农”活动的感受，并把参加活动的信息与参加活动之后的感受表达出来。2019年北京高考英语卷体现在大作文上：班级组织了一次“劳动最光荣”为主题的社会实践活动，以四幅画为纲，记述整个过程，写一篇英文周记。
②在德育之思维品质培养方面，2020年北京高考适应性测试体现在完形填空和阅读理解题B篇上：生活在沙漠地区的黑人女孩儿怀有滑雪冠军的梦想，在沙丘上练习滑雪。阅读理解题B篇：出生在美国难民家庭的黑人女孩儿对科学产生了兴趣，通过努力最终取得了成就。这引导考生要具有积极向上的，迎难而进的人生价值观，落实了教育部所要求的立德树人的教育革命任务。完形填空题使德育和体育结合起来，是本套试题的亮点。2019年北京高考英语卷体现在完形填空上：76岁的老人8年来一直免费接送低收入的学生上学的感人事迹。这种考题的目的旨在培养考生要具有优秀的品质，树立正确的人生价值观，成为高素质的社会主义接班人。这些提醒考生在备考期间要关注一些具有科学发展观的或者人生价值取向的材料，有目标的备考。
③2020年北京高考适应性测试出现了专业性比较强的文章，如7选5（采访的分类）；生词量庞大的说明文，如阅读理解题C篇（鸟类具有类似人类的社会等级意识）以及句式复杂的议论文，如阅读理解题D篇（坚信科学）。2020年北京高考适应性测试难度上超过2019年北京高考。
2、从体裁上来看，2020年北京市适应性测试与2019年北京高考英语试题发生了些许变化：阅读理解D由说明文变成了议论文；7选5由夹叙夹议文变成了说明文。其他没有什么变化。
3、从题量上来看，没有发生变化。
预计2020年高考英语有可能会通过深度挖掘语篇材料思想内涵，突出对综合语言运用能力的考查，促进学生学习能力、交际能力、人文底蕴的养成。如阅读理解部分可能选取科技创新、环境保护、一带一路、遗产保护、提倡健康精神等话题文章设计试题，引导学生在理解文章内容和作者观点态度的基础上深入思考人与自然、社会的关系，体悟和谐发展之道。
备考注意事项：
1、语法训练题要少做但要精做。从近年来高考改革趋势及英语语法试题命题的走向来看，“基础、常见、实用”这六字方针是语法试题的命题原则。所以我们首先应该加强基础、常见和实用的语法题目的训练，注重梳理。所以平时要对语法中的疑点、难点做好记录，并配合典型的语法练习题进行针对性的练习。要牢记“题不在多做，而在精做，举一反三，融会贯通”。语法填空题的备考建议是，要加强知识储备能力，尤其是基础知识的储备。在一轮复习的基础上需要继续加强对考纲所列出的3500词的记忆与复习，灵活掌握单词的拼写、词性、搭配及词义的拓展，要特别注意常考动词的特殊过去式和过去分词的变化情况。语法知识方面尤其要掌握动词的时态、语态，非谓语动词的正确使用，名词的单复数，连词的选用以及形容词和副词的转换、比较级的正确使用等，当然介词、代词、冠词的基本用法也是考生必须要掌握的知识点。
2、语篇训练要多做并限时做。根据高考改革，英语高考越来越重视考查考生的阅读理解能力。考生在做阅读理解练习时，一定要根据高考试卷对阅读理解题限时的要求限定时间。在选择正确答案时，要充分利用平常所学过的阅读技巧：如寻找主题句、猜词、推理、跳读、略读等获取所需要的信息。除了教材，平时也要多阅读英语报纸杂志，增加自己的阅读量，提高对不同题材和体裁文章的熟悉度以便获取更多的背景知识和英美等西方国家的文化背景知识。做给提示词类的题时，首先要分析句意和句子的结构，确定空格处该填谓语动词、非谓语动词还是其他词类。如果要填谓语动词，要考虑动词的时态和语态以及主谓一致的问题；如果需要填非谓语动词，则要准确判断应该用哪种形式的非谓语动词；若是词性的变化，那就要考虑空格处应填的是形容词、副词还是名词等。纯空格类题目的特征是以虚词为主，而且只能填一个单词，包括介词、冠词、连词、代词等。考生在做题时一定要根据句意和逻辑关系，做到意义完整、逻辑通顺、形式正确。为此，考生在备考阶段要注意培养和提高语篇理解能力、逻辑思维能力和语言的运用能力。
3、利用阅读语篇复习词汇、句型和语法。在做完限时阅读后，建议将短文重新再看一遍，对文章所出现的词汇、短语进行及时归纳和总结。语篇不仅为我们提供了丰富的语言文化背景知识及交际背景，而且学生可根据上下文的内容进行猜词，推理完成对语篇的理解，并带动单词、短语和句型的复习，形成较为流畅的语言表达习惯，为写作打下基础。同时，阅读也是记忆单词的好方法。事实上，孤立的单词是不容易记忆的，如果把它们放在一定的语言环境中联系上下文，就便于认识和记忆，并且词义记得准确、清楚。
4、重视写作能力的培养。书面表达能力的提高一方面需要大量阅读，另一方面离不开
反复地进行语言基本功的训练。而英语写作能力的培养必须由简到繁，由易到难，由浅入深，循序渐进地进行训练。平时强化词汇、语法知识的运用，背诵一定篇数的经典范文，并在此基础上多读、多写，养成良好的写作习惯。考生应该加强审题的训练，熟悉英语的五种简单基本句型，写好英语简单句。背课文和范文佳作，并且模仿其中的高级表达，学会使用这些高级表达来润色自己的文章。熟悉和了解高考书面表达的评分标准以及得分档次。加强书写的工整和美观。
第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分35分） 第一节（共10小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并再答题纸上将该项涂黑。 A Suddenly another thought went through Kate’s mind like an electric shock. An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else. In wind and rain, she started on her difficult was. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper(枕木) to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down between the sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream. At last -she never knew how long it had taken her – she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost. She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately, the station-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly. The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early. 21. What did Kate decide to do? A. Stop the express train. B. Check the signal light. C. Meet the passengers. D. Visit the station-master. 22. Which of the following words best describes Kate’s journey? A. Fruitless. B. Boring. C. Well-planned. D. Ricky. 23. Why did the station-master turn pale? A. He suddenly fell ill. B. He realized the danger. C. He discovered his mistake. D. He became over-excited. B The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen is offering a free meal to man guest who is able to produce electricity for the hotel on an exercise bile linked to a generator(发电机). The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guest will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity – roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel. The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guest staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard, hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors are business people who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to get a free meal, but generally I don’t think people will take advantage of our programme.” Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition an 36% of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen.dk. US environmental website https://www.doczj.com/doc/a716041921.html, recently voted Copenhagen the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as symbol of the hotel’s green profile(形象).” If successful, the electric bicycle meal programme will be spread to all Crowne Plaza hotels in the UK, the hotel said in a statement. 24. What is the main purpose of the free meal programme? A. To promote the hotel’s green concept. B. To make the city known to the world. C. To attract people to the hotel restaurant. D. To get guests to stay longer at the hotel. 25. How can a participant get a free meal? A. By becoming a professional cyclist. B. By cycling to produce some electricity.

新高考英语题型功能与题型创新 2014年，浙江省根据国务院关于深化高考改革的意见，结合本省的实际情况，对高考英语进行了实际的变革，语文、数学、外语每门课程均是150分，得分多少计入最后考试的总体成绩。其中，外语课程的考试每年安排两次，其中一次在6月份与语文、数学的考试同时进行。英语高考的分值是150分，每年考试两次，取其中最好的一次成绩作为高考纳入成绩。这次英语高考是1977年高考改革以来，最大程度的改革，在社会各界引起了剧烈的反向。本文将从浙江高考英语改革的原因以及可能造成的影响等方面，对浙江英语新高考进行全面的、细致的分析与思考。 一、浙江进行英语改革的原因 1977年，高考恢复，英语考试随之恢复，1983年，英语被纳入到中考的考试科目，1994年，英语被正式列入到高考的科目中，1987年，大学英语四级考试的相关政策出台，1989年，英语六级出台，1992年，英语正式成为三大主科之一，一直到2012年，各地的英语高考改革正在逐步的实施与进行。随着新中国的成立，我们国家考试制度逐渐的完善，一直到最后，英语成为与数学、语文同等地位的主科，由此可见，我国教育中对英语教育教学的重视，既然英语教学具有重要的作用与悠久的历史，那么我们为什么要实施新的高考呢？笔者认为，有以下几点原因：首先，为了提升学生对学习汉语的热情。随着社会的发展与时代的进步，人们对自己国家的语言的学习与书写逐渐的弱化，各种高科技产品的出现，人们对于自己母语的学习以及对自己国家的文化失去了兴趣。笔者就所在的学校进行调查研究，发现学生每天要花费个把小时的时间进行英语学习，每天至少有一节课的时间是要学习英语的。由此可见，学生花费在英语上的时间往往是多于汉语的。为了提升学生学习汉语的热情，需要相对的降低英语教学的地位，加强学生对汉语学习的热爱。其次，英语学习的重要性，
浙江高考英语新题型分析 1、听力回归，和笔试一起考，题型和分值均不变。 2、阅读题量减少到10道，但是阅读和完形填空的分值上升，巩固了这两个传统难题的地位。阅读从2分一道增加为2.5分一道；完形填空从1分一道增加为1.5分一道；同时阅读部分增加7选5题型，对浙江的高中生来说是一个新题型。 3、单选题取消，改错题取消，增加“语法填空”，以前不会的语法题还可以在四个选项中去猜，以后只能凭借硬功夫去填，“语感”也帮不了你了！ 4、写作分为两部分：小作文15分，为议论文，80个单词；大作文有两个类型，短文续写或者文章摘要，占25分；这两类作文形式对于浙江考生来说，都是十分新颖的，平时学校中也缺乏相应的训练，对于同学们来说会有较大的难度。 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节短对话（共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

高考英语新题型语法填空的考查分析及应考策略陕西省英语试题从2016年开始使用全国II卷，新增了听力，语法填空和七选五阅读。其中语法填空是同学们认为比较难的一个题，但同时也是这三个新题型里最容易提分的一个题，所以本人就此题的考查特点及应考策略谈谈自己的看法。 语法填空的考查目的和要求： 语法填空考查考生的语言基本功和在具体的语境下准确运用语言的能力。要求考生挖掘语境信息，运用逻辑语义、语篇衔接等手段，辨析各题、各个选项在语义、语用价值上的差异。其创新的意义在于体现“突出语篇、强调应用、注重实际”的精神。体现了语言测试的交际性原则，体现了高中课程改革的教学理念，与课程标准所提出的英语课程性质相吻合。 语法填空的核心是语言基本功，所以要求关注基础。教师在教学中重视语法的使用情境，体现语法的语用要求和交际功能，把握好语法复习的度。考纲中规定的语法项目都要复习到位，既要保证语法知识复习的系统性、完整性，又要结合高考试题，做到重点突出、详略得当。学生在语法复习时一定要注意语法的基本使用规则，通过语境了解语法，学习语法，亦运用语法。语法复习最好以练固讲，精讲精练，让考生在练中归纳，在练中感悟和提高。切忌面面俱到，耗时耗力地讲解语法规则和条文而削弱实践和练习，忽视其交际功能和语用功能。 语法填空题型特点和要求: 要求: 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下列材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 一般十个题里有七个是给提示词的，主要考查实词，例如考查名词的单复数，代词的变化，动词的时态语态，形容词副词比较级最高级，以及各个词性之间的转化。三个是无提示词的，主要考查连词，包括并列连词和从属连词，介词的搭配和运用，冠词等，这就要求学生们对文章句意，整体内容和结构的把握。 语法填空新题型对英语教学的启示： 1. 转变传统的语法教学理念 改变“重识记，轻运用”的语法教学理念，适当减少较繁琐复杂的语法知识的讲解，指导学生在具体语境中学得和习得语法。
2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（48） 阅读理解。 An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome. In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy And passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process. or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word. ( ) 1. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy? A. To invite authors to guide readers.
高考英语写作指导 一、应用文写作 评分标准总分15分，按5个档次给分。 1.评分时，先根据文章的内容和语言初步确定其所属档次，然后以该档次的要求来衡量、确定或调整档次，最后给分。（先锁定档次，再具体给分） 2.词数少于60词和多余100的，从总分减去2分。 3.评分时，应注意的主要内容：内容要点、应用词汇和语法结构的丰富性和准确性及上下文的连贯性。 4.拼写和标点符号（切忌逗号不能连接两个完整的句子，要么用分号，要么用连词）是语言准确性的一个方面，评分时，应视其对交际的影响程度予以考虑。 5.如书写较差，以致影响评阅，将分数降低一个档次。（注意保证书面整洁，不要有太多乱涂乱画的痕迹。） 档次描述 第五档（13-15分）完全覆盖了试题规定的任务；覆盖所有要点；应用了较多的语法结构和词汇；语法结构或词汇方面有些许错误，但为尽力使用复杂语法结构或较高级词汇所致；具备较强的语言能力；有效地使用了语句间的连接成分，使全文结构紧凑；完全达到了预期的写作目的。 第四档（10-12分）完全完成了试题规定的任务；虽漏掉了1-2个次重点，但覆盖所有主要内容；应用的语法结构和词汇能满足任务的要求；语法结构或词汇方面应用基本准确，有些许错误主要因尝试使用较复杂语法结构或词汇所致；应用简单的语句间的连接成分，使全文结构紧凑；完全达到了预期的写作目的。 第三档（7-9分）基本完成了试题规定的任务；虽漏掉一些内容，但覆盖所有内容；应用的语法结构和词汇能满足任务的要求；有一些语法结构或词汇方面的错误，但不影响理解；全文内容连贯，整体而言，基本达到了预期的写作目的。 写作步骤 （1）仔细审题，明确写作要求。那审题需要审什么？一审文体要求。了解题目要求写作的文体是应用文之书信、通知，演讲稿等。熟悉文体后即可确定全篇的写作格式与写作风格及段落结构之间的逻辑关系等。二审人称与时态。浏览题干要求后明确全文写作时态和人称，行文中做到两条主线贯穿始终：上下文人称统一，时态前后照应。三审要点。审题时弄清文章要点，各要点之间有什么联系。 （2）简单列出提纲，构建写作框架。根据文章要求，简单地想一想文章怎么构建，一些要点应该怎么表达，如句型、句式、词汇等。 （3）胸中有话，动手开篇成文。成文过程中设想一下平时学过的比较高级词汇和句型，如定语从句、状语从句、主语从句等。对于句型和词汇，有把握就用起来，没把握为了保险期间可以选择不用。 （4）细心通读，反复核查。要点是否遗漏、句子之间的衔接和过渡是否自然（多用连词，但是要明确句子间的关系，不要出现误用）语言是否得体，有无语法、拼写、表达错误。不要写几个词，点一下，切忌，在英文中一点就代表一个句号，这样会影响书面整洁。 二、读后续写
Ⅰ.阅读理解 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 When the natural climate changes due to global warming, it can surely affect seals. The majority of them live in the Antarctic region, so as the ice is melting, their natural habitat can be seriously affected. These changes don't take place overnight. They can be the result of many years of additional temperatures in the area. Seals then have to find ways to adapt. Seals depend on the cool air currents to bring plenty of food for them. When the temperatures get higher, there is less and less food and the seal population starts to shrink. Mothers aren't healthy enough to feed their babies. Many of them end up abandoned as their mothers have to leave to find their own source of food. The fact that their desire to produce young can be changed by the warmer temperatures is frightening too. It is also believed that the warmer temperatures can allow different diseases and viruses to attack seals. This is a huge concern as they can rapidly wipe out huge numbers of seals out there. However, these changes in climate and temperature aren't all bad for other species of seals. Scientists have found that those living in warmer climates are producing more young due to the changes. Research also shows that the females are moving further to find food and water. When they are out of the reach of the governing males, they are more willing to accept the moves of other males in the group. This is good news too because it means that there will be more selection in the gene pool(基因库)for future generations. It can help seals as a species adapt to change in their natural environment more easily.
2017高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（144） （2016高考训练）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。 体裁：记叙文话题：日常生活词数：610时间：8′ I no longer run for the mail the way I used to.I remember, before the e-mail age, the sense of heightened expectation as the hour of mail delivery approached, wondering what slim, handwritten treasures would appear in my box.I once received a letter from a long-lost friend and was filled with such joy that I ran the mail carrier down and shook his hand, as if he had done a heroic deed in conveying the letter to me. Once a day.Six days a week.That was the rhythm.Through snow, rain, heat, and darkness of night.I first learned to love the mail as a young boy.The first thing I ever received that was personally addressed to me was from my friend Duane.We had been the fastest of 9-year-old friends.Then he moved away, to Massachusetts.The parting was difficult, but boys didn't cry. Within the week, however, there was a letter in my mailbox.It was from Duane, and it read, “I'm OK, but I miss you.” That first conveyance to me of a wr itten word from a great distance had all the import of the first Morse code message：“What hath God wrought.” It was at that moment that I became a letter writer, quickly discovering that the more letters I wrote, the more I received. I wrote letters through elementary school, high school, college, and beyond.It got to the point where I could comfortably expect to receive a letter a day.The daily mail delivery was, for me, like a beacon (灯塔) at sea—something toward which my thoughts began to move upon waking.What quickened my blood，of course, was the element of surprise: From whom would the letter be today? And what would the news be？And then，seemingly in the blink of an eye, the earth shifted.E-mail had arrived.Despite being attracted by the new technology, I promised myself that I would never stop writing letters by hand.However, I had no control over the tendency of others, and slowly, coldly, and then with quickened pace, the letters disappeared from my mailbox, having been replaced with electronic “messages” (a totally differe nt beast—in contrast to letters, all e-mails look alike)． And so, like a shipwrecked man filling notes into bottles, tossing them into the waves, and hoping for the best, I continue to write longhand, licking envelopes, sticking stamps, and handing my outgoing mail to the carrier who regards me with a curious eye, as if he is looking at the last member of a species which is dying

分值 5×2=105×2=10 考点位置句首段首、段中、段尾 考查能力概括 概括、上下文推理 第三部分：语言运用 第一节完形填空 题量不变，分值从1分每题增加为1.5分每题。 完形填空考试题型不变。考查考生在阅读理解的基础上运用词汇知识的能力。在一篇约250词（2015浙江高考真题完形词数为350左右）的短文中留出20个空白，要求考生从每题所给的4个选项中选出最佳选项，使补足后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯、结构完整。 第二节语法填空 对浙江省的高中生来说，语法填空是一个新题型，代替原来的单项选择题。考查考生在阅读理解的基础上运用语法和语用知识的能力。在一篇200词左右的语言材料中留出10个空白，部分空白的后面给出单词的基本形式，要求考生根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容（1个单词）或所提供单词的正确形式。 第四部分：写作 第一节短文改错改为应用文写作，分值为15分，词数要求为80左右； 第二节读后续写或概要写作，两种形式在不同考次不定期交替使用，分值25分。这两类作文形式对于浙江考生来说是全新的，所以会有较大的难度二、考试样题 2016年浙江新高考英语题型解读—读后续写 《普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语科考试说明（高考综合改革试验省份试用）（第一版）》已经公布。作为试点开始单位，2016年10月份开始的浙江省新高考英语科目考试题型有重大变化，其中英语写作分为两部分：第一节为应用文写作；第二节为读后续写或概要写作。应用文写作与往年的写作变化不是很大，已为广大师生所熟悉，但是第二节的读后续写或概要写作是一种新题型，之前考试中考生并未接触过。为方便广大师生尽早熟悉这种题型，高效备考，特作以下解读。 一、2016年浙江新高考《考试说明》英语写作样题读后续写 第二节：读后续写（满分25分） 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
