历年(最近15年200余套)高考英语语法题详解（2008湖南卷）

29. When asked ______ they needed most, the kids said they wanted to feel important and loved. (2008湖南卷)

A. what                   B. why                   C. whom                D. which

【答案】A。

【考点】考查宾语从句用法。

【解析】what在此引导宾语从句（用作动词ask的宾语），同时what在宾语从句用作宾语（用作动词need的宾语）。句意为：当问到孩子们最需要什么的时候，他们说他们想要得到看重或被爱。

30. ______ the project as planned, we’ll have to work two more hours a day. (2008湖南卷)

A. Completing       B. Complete          C. Completed       D. To complete

【答案】D。

【考点】考查非谓语动词用法。

【解析】to complete the project as planned在此用作目的状语，句意为：为了按计划完成工程，我们一天必须多干两个小时。

31. The growing speed of a plant is influenced by a number of factors, ______ are beyond our control. (2008湖南卷)

A. most of them    B. most of which  C. most of what    D. most of that

【答案】B。

【考点】考查定语从句。

【解析】由于两个句子之间没有并列连词and，故可排除A和D；又因为what不能用于引导定语从句，所以most of what也可排除。此处的most of which相当于and most of them，所以若在选项A的前加上and，则也是对的。

32. I called Hnnah many times yesterday evening, but I couldn’t get through. Her brother ______ on the phone all the time! (2008湖南卷)

A. was talking     B. has been talking   C. has talked    D. talked

【答案】A。

【考点】考查动词时态。

【解析】I called…和I couldn’t get through…用的都是一般过去时，而talk on the phone这一动作正是发生在I couldn’t get through…期间，故要用过去进行时。

33. ______ the Internet is of great help, I don’t think it’s a good idea to spend too much time on it. (2008湖南卷)

A. If                       B. While              C. Because          D. As

【答案】B。

【考点】考查让步状语从句。

【解析】while在此表示让步，意为“尽管，虽然”，又如：While a few became richer, many did not. 虽然一些人变得更富有了，但多数人并非如此。 While I admit that there are problems, I don’t agree that they cannot be solved. 尽管我承认有问题存在，但我不同意说这些问题不能解决。

34. Susan wanted to be independent of her parents. She tried ______ alone, but she didn’t like it and moved back home. (2008湖南卷)

A. living                  B. to live               C. to be living      D. having lived

【答案】A。

【考点】考查非谓语动词用法。

【解析】try doing sth与try to do sth的区别是：前者表示做某事试试看（有何效果），后者表示设法做某事。如：Let’s try knocking at the back door. 咱们敲敲后门试试。Try phoning his home number. 给他家里打个电话试试。Try to come early. 请设法早点来。He tried to persuade her to come. 他设法要说服他来。

35. —Do you have any problems if you ______ this job?

—Well, I’m thinking about the salary…. (2008湖南卷)

A. offer                   B. will offer            C. are offered       D. will be offered

【答案】C(http://www.hxen.net/)。

【考点】考查动词时态。

【解析】由于if引导的是条件状语从句，所以要用一般现在时表示将来意义，而不能直接使用将来时态，故可排除B和D；再根据offer sb sth（为某人提供某物）这一句式可知，sb与offer之间为被动关系，故要用被动语态。
