第Ⅱ卷增分专练(一)

Ⅰ.语法填空

语篇解读：本文是说明文，介绍了古都洛阳。洛阳拥有悠久的、激动人心的历史和诸多名胜古迹。对游客来说，洛阳是一个值得一游的城市。

1．when when it comes to ... 为固定结构，意为“当提到……时”。

2．attractive 空处在句中作定语修饰cities，故用形容词attractive“吸引人的”。

3．as as在句中意为“作为”。stand out as“作为……而出类拔萃”。

4．the 此处用定冠词，特指中国文化和历史的发源地。

5．is 文中客观介绍了洛阳的相关事实，用一般现在时。空格处所在句为There be 句型，句中主语为no other city in China，所以be动词用第三人称单数。

6．dynasties 根据空前的“so many”可知此处用dynasty的复数形式。

7．to offer have意为“有”时，后面一般用带to的不定式作定语。

8．were included 句中的时间状语“in 2000”表明空格处用一般过去时，且which(指代The Longmen Grottoes)与include之间是被动关系，故用被动语态。

9．constantly 空处修饰谓语动词，故用副词。

10．established establish与所修饰的名词之间有逻辑上的被动关系，且表示一个完成的动作，所以用过去分词作定语。注意：句中the earliest Buddhist temple为同位语，其后为过去分词作定语，不能误认为空处是谓语动词而用was established。

Ⅱ.短文改错

第一句：go→goes

第二句：去掉and

第三句：before→ago

第四句：proudly→proud

第五句：for→to

第六句：me后加to

第七句：what→how

第八句：he ar→hearing

第九句：shocking→shocked

第十句：classmate→classmates

Ⅲ.书面表达

参考范文：

Dear Smith,

谈谈如何进行高三英语二轮复习-最新教育资料

谈谈如何进行高三英语二轮复习 二轮复习是在第一轮对应考知识点进行滴水不漏的复习后，按照高考命题内容、形式及要求进行的专题复习。二轮复习强调针对性，对各个题型进行专门集中训练，以达到熟悉题型、提高理解能力、掌握解题技巧的目的。同时二轮复习又要为第三轮的综合训练进行必要的知识和能力储备。因此，二轮复习要求老师指导学生巩固基础知识，正确理解和运用知识，侧重培养学生实现由语言知识到语言应用能力的转化。 在二轮复习的课堂教学中，既要发挥教师的主导作用，又要充分体现学生的主体地位，才能使得此轮复习真正具有实效性，起到承上启下的作用。 一、保持学生的学习兴趣与成就动机 “兴趣是最好的老师”，老师的第一任务就是把学生调动起来，而非逼他们学。对学生逼得越急，学生就越把学习看成是老师的事。让学生明确通过努力而达到的目标，并且明白目标的达成对于个人成长的意义。 1、清晰授课： 教师授课语言应清晰明了、重点突出、逻辑性强，学生才能较轻松地逐步理解，才会使兴趣持续； 2、多样化教学： 杜绝教师“一言堂”的教学行为，引导学生积极主动参与到

课堂教学中来也是吸引学生的一个妙法。比如我们在进行“习题课”时，让学生分析讲解会使他们更集中注意力，因为学生也希望自己的见解得到别人的承认，他们便会认真思考。同时，学生通过在大脑进行知识整理的过程也会使他们记得更牢。 多样化的教学手段在二轮复习中对教学很有帮助，利用多媒体的图像、声音、符号等在写作课上就能展示它大容量、直观、省时等优点。 3、任务导向： 每堂课都应有明确的任务目标，让学生明白这节课后他们要得到什么，带着任务去学习。“缺乏学习者的动机、兴趣和追求的教学活动，一定是低效的甚至是无效的。” 4、及时注意反馈，确保学生有收获： 在每次教学任务后，通过与学生交流、练习或问题讨论等收集学生反馈信息，了解学生掌握知识和技能的程度，以便及时进行教学调控，帮助学生查缺补漏，使学生有获得成功体验的动机。 二、根据学情，确定合理的专题复习规划 “最适合的教育就是最好的教育。”教师的价值在于加工教学的好坏，水平高低在于是否是能影响学生的知识加工。照搬书本的教学是枯燥、无吸引力的。教学活动是围绕学生的需求为中心的，因此按照自己学生的实际情况进行的教学才能使学生最大程度地朝着你预期的目标发展，才是最有效的教学。 1、确定合适的教学内容。研究《考试考纲》及《考试说明》
