高考解读
【高考导航】
高考命题趋向分析：
1.means是新课标的重点词汇意思“方式，方法、手段”，单复数同形，作主语前有不同词修饰，谓语动词的单复数区别为考查的重点；固定短语和同义词辨析是另一个考查的重点；短语的特殊用法：by no means /not by any means位于句首时，主句用部分倒装；此外mean为动词时，其后接doing, to do的含义不同，2010年将考到同义词辨析，以及倒装句式，这些知识点
2.occur是英语中很重要的动词，它用法灵活，常作为命题点来考查经常考查的角度是sth. occurs to sb. 或It occurs to sb. that从句；以及occur与happen, take place等动词或动词短语的词义和用法辨析。2010年可能会考查到这些用法
3．take的相关短语是历年高考的热点，对它的考查主要集中在take的同根短语的辨析上，如：take in. Take up, take on, take over, take out等，以及take构成的短语与其它动词短语的辨析上 2007年辽宁卷、2006年的山东卷，2009年的安徽卷都曾考查过。2010年考查take短语与其它短语的辨析，可能性非常大
4It is +过去分词+that构成的主语从句一直是高考的热点，对着一句型的考查多是变换句式，”sb. +动词+that从句=Sb +is/was/are/were+过去分词+不定式”;2007年重庆卷曾考查过say的变化形式。这一句型2010年仍可以这样考查
5. 名词性从句一直是高考的必考点，考生在复习备考中要注意形式主语、主语从句、同位语从句和定义从句的辨析，连接词whether ,if的区分等 【真题品析】

Module8unit1 第二课时
名词性从句
【基础过关】
1、名词性从句中连接词的运用
名词性从句中的连接词有连词that / whether / as if，连接代词what / who/ which / whose / whatever / whoever / whomever / whichever，连接副词where / when / why / how / wherever / whenever。 （1）that的用法
①主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句中用that但不能省略如： That they are good at English is known to us all. The problem is that we don’t have enough money.
She expressed the hope that they would come to China one day.
②宾语从句中的连接词that有时可省有时又不可省，在以下几种情况中that不能省略：（A）当that从句和主句谓语动词之间有插入词语或者从句主语之间有插入语时，that不可省略；（B）当that 从句与另一名词性从句并列作宾语时，that不能省；（C）当that作介词宾语时，that不可省掉如：
He judged that, because he was a child, he did not understand wine. Everyone knew what happened and that she was worried. The reason lies in that she works harder than the others do.
③that从句作主语和宾语时，可以用it 来替换成以下几种结构表达 (A)It is clear/certain/likely/true/surprising that… （B）It is a pity/shame/good idea/no wonder that ...
（C）It is said/reported/ believed/known/thought/suggested that … （D）It seems/happens that。如： It happened that I went out last night. It is said that China will win in the World Cup. 【点拨】that和what的区别。
that 引导名词性从句时，在主从句中不充当任何句子成分，也没有任何含义；而what引导 一切为了学生的发展 一切为了家长的心愿
名词性从句时，在主从句中都要充当一定的句子成分，what可以分解成定语从句中的先行词 + 关系代词即常说的先行词 + that。如：
It’s shame that he has made such a mistake. Do what he says. 【点拨】同位语从句与定语从句中that的区别
同位语从句中的连词that只起连接作用，在从句中不担当任何句子成分；而定语从句中的关系代词that在句中做宾语或主语，宾语与先行词有修饰关系。如果句子是同位语从句，就应用连词that而不能用which.同位语从句一般放在表具体含义的名词后解释名词的含义或内容，如以下名词：news、fact、suggestion、truth、plan、belief、doubt、possibility、idea等，而定语从句只是对先行词的限定和修饰如：
They expressed the hope that they would come to visit China again.(同位语从句) The hope she expressed is that they would come to visit China again.（定语从句） 【点拨】whether和if的用法
①whether和if在宾语从句中可以互换，但是作介词宾语时连接词一般用whether如： It all depends on whether they will come back. ②后面直接跟or not 时用whether如：
I didn’t know whether or not he had arrived in Wuhan. ③主语从句表语从句中只能用whether。如：
Whether the meeting will be put off has not been decided yet. The question is whether they have so much money.
④whether可以引导同位语从句，用以说明前面的名词的内容，if不能。如： We ought to discuss carefully the question whether we can do it or not.
⑤whether常与or连用表示一种选择，if不能这样用；whether也可与动词不定式连用但if不能如：
The question of whether they are male or female is not important. I have not decided whether to go or not.
⑥间接引语位于句首时或者是间接引语提前时用whether不用if如： Thank you, but whether I’ll be free I’m not sure at the moment.
⑦whether可引导一个让步状语从句表示“不管”、“无论”，而if不能。如： Whether he comes or not, we will begin our party on time. 【点拨】疑问词 + ever和no matter + 疑问词的区别
①疑问词 + ever可引导名词性从句，在主从句中要充当一定的部分如： Whoever breaks the rule must be punished. You can choose whatever you like in the shop. ②疑问词 + ever还可引导让步状语从句如： Whoever breaks the rule, he must be punished, 一切为了学生的发展 一切为了家长的心愿
Whatever you do, you must do it well.
③no matter + 疑问词只能引导让步状语从句如： No matter what you do, you must do it well. No matter who breaks the rule, he must be punished.
【点拨】when和where引导的同位语从句与定语从句的区别。
when 和where前面的名词若是表示时间、地点的名词，则when和where引导的是定语从句，否则则为同位语从句如：
They put forward the question where they could get the money. This is the place where the accident happened.
【拓展延伸】2、名词性从句中主句和从句的时态一致
（1）宾语从句中主句和从句的时态保持一致，但如果从句表示的是客观现象，虽然主句是过去时态，从句仍用一般现在时如：
Hello, I didn’t know you were in London. How long have you been here? The teacher told us that light travels at a very high speed.
（2）主语从句作主语相当于单数第三人称作主语，谓语动词用单数，如果由and 连接两个或两个以上的主语从句作主语时，谓语动词用复数；由两个或多个连接词引导一个主语从句，谓语动词用单数如：
When the meeting will begin has not been decided yet.
When they will start and where they go have not been decided yet. When and where the meeting will begin has not been decided. 3、名词性从句的词序
名词性从句在句中要用陈述句语序如： He asked me what was the matter with me.
We’ve heard the news that we’ll move into the new house. Whatever you say will interest us all. 【典型例题】
1. A computer can only do ________ you have instructed it to do.
A. how B. after C. what D. when 【答案】C 考查的是名词性从句作宾语的用法
【点拨】此句的引导词既作连词又在宾语从句中充当一成分，故what最合适 2. —I drove to Zhuhai for the air show last week..
—Is that _________ you had a few days off ?
A. why B. when C. what D. where 【答案】A。考查的是从句的用法
【点拨】根据题意“我上周开车去珠海看航空展去了。”下面一句接着问：“那就是你为什么 一切为了学生的发展 一切为了家长的心愿
离开的原因吗？”故用why引导表语从句表示原因
3. I hate __________ when people talk with their mouths full.(NMET 98)
A. it B. that C. these D. them 【答案】A。考查的是形式宾语的用法
【点拨】题意为“我讨厌人们谈话时嘴里塞满东西”。该空白处没有任何含义，而且已经用了when连接该宾语从句，所以此处只填一个形式宾语it 【实战演练】
1.Word came I was wanted at the office. A. which B. why C. that D. whether 2.The fact he is an orphan is well known.
A. what B. that C. which D./ 3. I will accept the gift is none of your business.

One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a hug feather, Several times, it 36 several obstacles in its path. And after a momentary pause it would make me necessary detour． 37 one point，the ant had to cross a crack about 10mm wide Aner some 38 thoughts，the ant laid the feather over the crack，walked 39 lt and picked the feather up on the other side，then continued on its way．I was 40 by the cleverness of this ant．It was only a small insect，lacking in 41 yet equipped with a brain to reason，explore，discover and overcome． 42 this ant，like the other two-legged creatures 43_on the earth，also shares human failings。
After some time the ant 44 reached its destination—a flower bed and a small hole that was me entrance to its 45 home．It was there that the ant met its 46 . How could that 1arge feather possibly 47 such a small hole? Of course，it couldn’t.

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.
Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get 一切为了学生的发展 一切为了家长的心愿
away from London every night.

A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city. B. People who work in London prefer to live in the country.
C. Because of certain disadvantages of living outside London, some people who work in London prefer to live inside London.
D. Because of certain advantages of living outside London, many people who work in London prefer to live outside London.
72. One can use the same money for ________ to buy a little house with a garden in the country. A. getting a small flat with a garden
B. having a small flat with a garden
C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden
73. When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those _______ have the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature. A. who live in the country
B. who have spent time working in the garden C. who have a garden of their own
D. who have been digging, planting and watering
74. People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live it outside London.

阅读下面的短文，并根据文章后的要求答题（请注意问题后的词数要求）
Although you’ll probably live longer than you imagine, don’t count on being healthier. The need for and the cost of health care typically increase dramatically as you age. On average, for example, a 40-year-old man consumes about $2,000 a year in health care services, whereas a typical 75-year-old consumes five times that much. That’s why, as the population ages, huge inflationary pressures are put on the health care system.
How big will those pressures be in the next century? Over the past 40 years, health care costs have risen an average of 70 percent faster than the general rise in prices—and that was 一切为了学生的发展 一切为了家长的心愿
before the boomers (新定居的人) started to gray. The federal government predicts that by 2030, as boomers enter their 70s and 80s, health care spending will top $16 trillion, representing nearly 1 out of every 3 dollars in the economy.
Who will pay the bill? No one knows for sure, but it’s a good guess that the next century’s elderly will become responsible for paying a much larger share of their own costs than their counterparts do now. Qualification requirements for Medicaid nursing-home benefits, for example, are likely to be tightened. Since the cost of a nursing-home bed is projected to be $97,000 a year by 2030, those who don’t make financial preparations for aging _________________________.
Medicare, which covers medical costs for the elderly, is also likely to become less generous—limiting the conditions and treatments it covers, for example. 76. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
___ 77. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Even though you’ll probably live longer, it does not necessarily mean you will be healthier. ___ 78. Please fill in the blank in the third paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (Please answer within 10 words)

Though the last winter was rather cold, my neighbor Grandpa Li, who is a childless old man, felt very warm from the bottom of his heart.
During the winter, his neighbors often visited him and did housework in turns. Before the Spring Festival the government sent him enough flour, meat, oil and other daily necessities. My mother helped to wash the clothing for him. Following mother’s example, I swept his floor, together with some of my classmates. We also cleaned his rooms, pasted Spring Festival couplets and hang some red lanterns in his yards, which made his home take on a new look.
In our society everyone should give help to those who need help. If everyone devotes a bit, all of us may feel even warmer.
