历年(最近15年200余套)高考英语语法题详解（2006湖南卷）

21. The wild flowers looked like a soft orange blanket _____ the desert. (2006湖南卷)

A. covering          B. covered          C. cover            D. to cover

【答案】A。

【考点】考查非谓语动词用法。

【解析】现在分词短语covering the desert在此用作定语，修饰blanket; 由于cover与其后的the desert为动宾语关系(表主动)，所以不能用过去分词。

22. In _____ review off 44 studies, American researchers found that men and women who ate six key foods daily cut the risk of _____ heart disease by 76%.(2006湖南卷)

A. a; the            B. the; a            C. a; 不填　　　　　D.不填; a

【答案】C。

【考点】考查冠词用法。

【解析】第一空填不定冠词，表示“一次”; 第二空不填冠词(或填零冠词)，因为此处是表泛指。

23. A man cannot smile like a child, _____ a child smiles with his eyes, while a man smiles with his lips alone. (2006湖南卷)

A. so              B. but               C. and             D. for

【答案】D。

【考点】考查并列连词的用法。

【解析】此处的for表原因，意为“因为”，句意为：成年人不能像小孩那样笑，因为小孩用眼睛笑，而成年人只用嘴唇笑。又如：He shook his head, for he thought differently. (R26) 他摇了摇头，因为他有不同想法。

24. I was giving a talk to a large group of people, the same talk I _____ to half a dozen other groups. (2006湖南卷)

A. was giving       B. am giving         C. had given         D. have given

【答案】C。

【考点】考查动词时态。

【解析】许多同学可能会简单地根据前面的was giving而误选A。但事实上，此题提供的语境是：我当时正在给一群人作报告，这个报告我曾给其他若干批人讲过。由于was giving为过去进行时，而“曾给其他若干批人讲过”显然发生在was giving这一过去时间之前，故用过去完成时，即答案选C。

25. Fred, who had expected how it would go with his daughter, had a great worry _____ his mind. (2006湖南卷)

A. on              B. in               C. with             D. at

【考点】考查介词辨析与用法。

26. As the busiest woman in Norton, she made _____ her duty to look after all the other people’s affairs in that town. (2006湖南卷)

A. this             B. that             C. one              D. it

【答案】D。

28. If you think that treating a woman well means always _____ her permission for things, think again. (2006湖南卷)

A. gets            B. got            C. to get              D. getting

【答案】D(http://ask.hxen.net/)。

【考点】考查非谓语动词用法。

【解析】mean有两个用法，一是表示“打算”，此时后接动词要用不定式，不用动名词，如：What do you mean to do with it? 你打算怎样处理它? 二是表示“意味着”、“需要”等，此时后接动词要用动名词，不用不定式，如：This illness will mean going to hospital. 得了这种病就意味着要住院。比较：If we mean to catch the early bus, that means getting up before five. 要想赶早班车，我们就得在五点钟以前起床。
