新概念英语》自1967年问世以来,一直被认为是英语学习的经典教材。1997年,改版后的《新概念英语》凭借其完善的知识体系和经典的选材被越来越多的人们所熟知和喜爱。


  众所周知,《新概念英语》共分四册。各册各司其职,构筑了一栋牢固,坚实的英语知识大厦。每一册内部又自成体系,各有侧重。其中,《新概念英语》(二册)是这座英语大厦的框架部分,它的特点是语法讲解系统全面,条理清晰,循序渐进。同时,每一个语法点都以生动活泼的小故事,小短文为载体,学生可以身临其境地感知语法,运用语法,大大提高了语法学习的效率,使英语学习回归到了最本质的目的:运用。


  而高考中的单项填空这一题型恰恰考查的就是考生对语法知识熟练程度及灵活运用能力。因此,我们可以说《新概念英语》(二册)是同学们应对高考单项填空题最合适的参考资料。


  以下我们将通过对2005年-2009年普通高校招生统一考试英语试题(北京卷)单项填空部分的分析,向同学们展示如何充分利用《新概念英语》(二册),提高单项填空题型的得分。


  首先,准确把握,有的放矢。请同学们注意以下两个表格:


  表一:2005-2009高考英语试题(北京卷)单项填空语法知识点分布

\


注:数字代表题目数量


  以上表格可以划分为三大板块(重点考点,高频考点及一般考点),各版块在《新概念英语》(二册)中被涉及到的比例(粗略统计)如:


表二:

\


注: 新二涉及比例= 该语法点在《新概念英语》(二册)讲解次数/新概念二册语法点总数


  仔细分析,不难发现《新概念英语》(二册)不仅覆盖了高考考纲中的全部语法点,并且对语法点的重点,主次的划分也与高考实际情况保持一致。同学们如果能够对《新概念英语》(二册)的重点准确把握,熟练运用,就能在高考备考过程中做到有的放矢,进而提高在单项填空部分的分数。


  其次,举一反三,得心应手。《新概念英语》(二册)的语法要点全面,详细。同学们在学习过程中如果能够知其然且知其所以然,做到举一反三,高考中就可以自如发挥,准确应答。以下通过三道高考真题加以印证:


  1. He ________ more than 5,000 English words when he entered the university at the age of 15. (05. 24)


  A. has learned B. would have learned


  C. learned D. had learned


  【答案】D


  【分析】这道题考查过去完成时的用法。《新概念英语》(二册)Lesson14 对过去完成时进行了重点讲解。同学们如果能理解"过去完成时表达的是过去某一时间点之前已经完成的动作"并结合14课的句子'I had nearly reached the town, when the young man suddenly said, very slowly, "Do you speak English?' '很快就可以准确判断了。


  2. ―When do we need to pay the balance ?


  ― September 30. (06. 22)


  A. In B. By


  C. During D. Within


  【答案】B


  【分析】这道题考查介词by的用法。同学们如果对《新概念英语》(二册)Lesson 37'By the end of next year, they will have finished work on the new stadium.'这句话有印象,就会知道by后面可以跟一个具体时间点,表示动作持续到那某个时间点终止,翻译为"不迟于......(时间),到......(时间)为止"。 而in+时间,表示"在......时候"不能体现动作的持续性;during和within后面通常是一个时间段,如:during the 1990s, within five minutes.于是可知答案为B。


  3. ______ that she was going off to sleep, I asked if she'd like that little doll on her bed.(08, 24)


  A. Seeing B. To see


  C. See D. Seen


  【答案】A


  【分析】这道题考查现在分词做状语的用法。同学们如果能够理解"分词做状语其逻辑主语就是句子的主语,同时如果动作是主语发出的,应该用现在分词" 另外,现在分词做状语可以表示原因,伴随等。与此同时,联想到《新概念英语》(二册)Lesson 49:


  'Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house.'及Lesson 57 'Glancing at her scornfully, he told her that the dress was sold. '举一反三,就不难判断了。


  最后,反复吟诵,胸有成竹。《新概念英语》(二册)文章短小精悍,适宜高中生朗读背诵。反复吟诵,可以培养良好的语感,提高解答高考单项填空题的效率。以下再通过三道高考真题加以印证:


  1. I'd like to arrive 20 minutes early _______ I can have time for a cup of tea. (05. 33)


  A. as soon as B. as a result


  C. in case D. so that


  【答案】D


  【分析】这道题考查so that 引导目的状语从句的用法。同学们如果能联想到《新概念英语》(二册)Lesson 59 'This time he was barking so that someone would let him out! ' Lesson 67 'This time, he managed to climb into the mouth of Kituro so that he could take photographs and measure temperatures.' 以及Lesson 74 'Dressed in dark glasses and old clothes, they had taken special precautions so that no one should recognize them. '凭借语感就能准确做出选择。


  2. In crowded places like airports and railway stations, you___ take care of your luggage. (07. 26)


  A. can B. may C. must D. will


  【答案】C


  【分析】这道题考查情态动词must表主观要求的用法,翻译为“必须,应该,一定”。同学们如果能熟练默诵出《新概念英语》(二册)以下句子Lesson 20 'You must give up fishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.' Lesson 60 'Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her.'以及Lesson69 'As soon as I tap on the window, you must stop within five feet. '很快就能选对答案。


  3. It was hard for him to learn English in a family, in which _____ of the parents spoke the language. (08. 25)


  A. none B. neither C. both D. each


  【答案】B


  【分析】这道题考查不定代词neither 的用法。同学们如果能熟练默诵出Lesson 14课的句子'Apart from a few words, I do not know any French at all. Neither of us spoke during the journey.'凭借语感就可以初步做出选择,再结合语境加以确认就可以胸有成竹地选对答案。


  综上所述,《新概念英语》(二册)具备完善的语法体系,条理的语法层次及生动的语法载体,对于侧重检测学生语法运用能力的单项填空题可谓是应试宝典。同学们只要脚踏实地,循序渐进地学习,多背诵,勤总结,单项填空题的正确率就一定会有明显提高。
