动词的用法是最难和最灵活的项目, 也是每年高考的重头戏。许多老师和正在迎接2007年高考的同学都在关注着语言点的考查,为此,我们拟就06年全国各地试卷中语言点考查的一个侧面:动词考查情况,进行数据统计和细化分析。
语言学习中对动词的掌握和运用,决定了以动词为中心的语言点考查范围。2006年在全国各省市的高考英语试题单项选择题和完形填空中,动词依然是考查热点,试归纳汇总在下表:
从上表看出,今年全国各地英语试卷中,在语言和词汇运用一题中,以动词为中心的语言点来说,主要在动词词义或动词短语的区别考查尤为密集。在此,我们把各地试卷单项选择题中在这个方面的考查再细化分析:

在动词词义区别方面,今年普遍出现对一些较为常用的动词之间的区别进行考查,这和前几年有相同之处。试题构成上来说,在全国高考试卷中,往往采用一些常用但区别又很微妙的动词来考查学生对语言的敏感程度和准确理解。比如:全国卷I第22题,就要求对几个常用到的动词:reach, miss, lose及catch在具体语境灵活区别,同样,在该套试题中第27题,要求考生对几个表示“破坏”意思的词区别:damage, hurt, hit及 strike。全国卷II第15题,要求区别forbid, allow, follow及ask几个词。天津卷第6题,要求对load, hold, fill及support进行区别。广东卷第24题,要求考生对come,grow, go及get等常用词在一个特定语言环境中的恰当运用。 山东卷第25题,也有类似的词义区别:make , turn, grow及get等。浙江卷第20题,要求对go, tell, write及say等词在具体语言环境中的恰当运用。 湖北卷第22题,要求对grow, develop, increase及raise等词进行细微区别。安徽卷则要求学生对leave, remain, delay及desert 在具体语境中进行合理运用。
在动词短语方面,今年在全国各地高考试卷中出现的短语累计共有14道题目,这些短语分布在:福建卷第28题,对pick out, make out ,pick up及make up区别。重庆卷第28题,对get along, come on, watch out及set off在具体语境中的合理运用。江西卷第34题,要求就turn up, make up ,fix up, set up 四短语进行细微区别。陕西卷第14题,要求对turn构成的短语:turn to, turn on , turn off, turn over 进行精确运用。天津卷第8题,要求就refer to, speak of, focuse on 及come to 进行恰当运用。广东卷第25题,对break out, get out, put out , come out 细微区别。 山东卷第34题,对take up, save up, keep up, draw up 进行区别。浙江卷第8题,要求对look up, take down, work out及bring out在具体语境中合理运用。可以说,在湖北卷中,今年就短语的考查相当频繁,共在四道试题中考查了, 分别为:第25、26、27和28题中出现。第25题要求区别come构成的固定短语:come up, come out, come about, come over;第26题要求区别see through, work out, look into, watch over;第27题要求区别call on, call up, call for, call in;第27题要求区别turn up, go back, die down, blow out。四川卷第25题,则要求对get down, get through, give in, give away进行合理运用。安徽卷第33题,要求对come down, take down, turn over, go over在具体语境中恰当运用。辽宁卷第22题,则对break构出的短语区别:break down, break up, break in和break out 。
通过对上面短语考查的对比,我们可以看出,短语的考查在今年的高考试卷中难度不算大,但试题占的比重很大,尤其在完形填空中。另外,各地的试题对比,就很容易看出短语的考查还有相同的,比如浙江卷第8题和安徽卷第33题,都考查了take down。再如陕西卷第14题和湖北卷第27题、安徽卷第33题都考查到了turn构成的短语。
二、动词短语考查中一些典型问题的分析
根据评卷抽样分析,06年英语动词短语考查平均得分不高,其主要问题在于中学生的动词短语辨析能力欠缺,反映出考生的基本技能和基础知识依然有待提高,不少考生连基本动词短语的意思都不清楚,这需要引起我们對教学的重视。在评卷的过程中,我发现和总结了考生的以下几种典型问题:
(一)基本动词词汇问题
考生基本动词词汇的问题反映在:
1. 记不清基本动词词意, 如: damage, struck, forbid, respond, reflect, focuse , desert等。
2. 分不清一些这些动词短语之间的区别, 如: refer to 和speak of, get along和set off , break out和come out,call up 和 call on等。这些现象说明学生记忆动词词汇和动词短语的时候非常不准确,只停留在似是而非的和一知半解的感觉上。
(二)基本知识问题
1) 动词搭配不当。如:
to turn ( make ) a good researcher, grew ( went ) green,to raise ( develop ) habits,put ( make ) up jokes (2005江苏卷 )
2) 短语记忆不牢,似是而非。如:
Come about , look into, died down , take down, turn to, take up,mean to cheat等
3) 词义用错问题。如:
lost ( missed ) the last bus, fill ( hold ) 40 people, left ( remained )in the tea house
(三) 应试能力和技巧问题
1)不注意分析句子结构和句式变化,而误定了选择方向。
2)因未认真分析语境,而未能正确理解和把握信息。
例如:In our childhood, we were oftenby Grandma to pay attention to our table manners. ( 2005江苏卷 )
A. demandedB. reminded C. allowed D. hoped
【分析】考生很可能选择A项,但根据语境, 此处应为经常“提醒” 之意。因此,答案为 B。
The chance passed and I didn’tit. ( 2006江苏卷 )
A. take B. haveC. lose D. find
【分析】考生很可能选择B项,但根据语境, 此处应为“抓住机会”之意。因此,答案为 A 。
3)因产生思维定势而未能正确理解句意。
例如:We’re going towith some friends for a picnic. Would you like to join us? (2004北京春季第27题)
A. get in B. get over C.get along D. get together
【分析】考生很可能选择C项,get along with sb.“与…相处”。但根据句意,此处应为“欢聚”之意。因此,答案为D。
We didn’t plan our art exhibition like that but itvery well ( 2001全国卷 )
A. worked outB. tried out C. went on D. carried on
【分析】该题考查考生对题干中句子的理解和对几个动词短语的掌握情况。句子的意思是“我们本没有那样计划我们的美术展览,但结果是它进行得非常好。”根据句意,选项中惟有A项符合这一要求。选择B项和C项的考生不知道work out、try out、go on和carry on的确切含义。
三、动词和动词短语的复习
(一)夯实基础,增加输入
语言学习,需要大量的语言知识积累,同样能力的提高是以知识为基础的,没有一定量的知识积累和技能,就转化不成一定质的能力。高三复习中我们应该系统地复习好教材,巩固所学知识,熟练技能。首先,复习要立足于《考试大纲》,着眼于复习实效, 要在教材复习中巩固语言知识。有针对性地复习一些常用动词和动词短语,夯实基础。教师们在课堂教学中,应该针对同学们的不同问题,采取相应的解决措施,帮助学生有计划、有系统、有步骤地归纳复习。学生在复习阶段要全面、牢固地掌握中学阶段所学的常用动词和动词短语,并有意识地多记一些英语习惯用法。
其次,增加输入,拓展视野。教师要引导学生尽可能多地从不同渠道、以不同形式接触和学习英语,亲身感受和直接体验语言及语言应用。通过多样化的教学活动,启发思维,引导学生主动学习,及时检测,促进学生知识结构和思维方式的转变,并实现最终的教学目标。因此,我们教师应该充分利用英语教材以及有利于发展学生综合语言运用能力的其它所有学习材料和辅助设施来提高学生学习英语的积极性,鼓励学生利用多种资源,拓宽学习和运用英语的渠道,创造自主学习的条件,改进学习方式,提高学习效果。
(二)开发智力,提高能力
动词和动词短语的考查在语境中进行,这种趋势在单选题和完形填空中尤为突出,几乎每个小题都设计了一个独立的语境,没有特别难的语言点,考查点都是常见常用的内容。学生对这类试题无法说难,但又往往难于确定正确答案,反映他们语言实际灵活应用能力不足。因此,教师要引导学生通过亲自发现、归纳、分析、运用所学动词和动词短语提高运用语言知识的能力。教师应根据高考要求给予扩展性的补充,并指导学生对所学知识进行综合运用的训练,以提高综合运用知识的能力。要培养学生的综合运用能力,在教学中应让学生多观察、多思考、多分析、多实践,并在不同的语境中去体验其真正的用法。语言知识的运用和语言技能的训练,要具有更大的灵活性和实用性。就是要结合特定的具体环境去创造性地灵活而又正确地使用英语。
(三)增加训练,把握技巧和策略
教与学要注重基本技能和基础知识的培养,最后阶段复习应该以练巩固双基,以练提高语言综合能力为主。从练入手,发现问题,及时应付学生的运用知识能力的变化,切中要点。所以高三复习课要实行“先练后讲”的原则。教学思路应由过去的“讲解—训练—记忆”转变为“训练—讲解—归纳”。教师的正面传授知识要变为拔乱反正,即帮助学生不断发现问题,纠正错误,寻求正确答案。学生“先练”中的问题就是教师“后讲”中的重点。这种英语复习教学的特点是从结果入手,寻找过程,反问一个“为什么”。以前的教学是把学生从未知领域引导到已知领域,高三复习教学要解决知其然还要知其所以然的问题。教师应该从练习入手抓语言知识的应用,从结果入手找原因,一正一反,不断强化训练,学生的语言运用能力就能逐步提高。复习课应尽量采用归纳法授课,培养学生观察、发现、分析、比较、归纳及解决问题的能力。要求同学不但掌握所学动词和动词短语的意义而且要注意其在不同语境中的用法。从练入手,应该练什么样的题目?题海茫茫,教师要严格控制。所训练的动词和动词短语选择的依据应该是:
1. 考綱的词汇和短语
2. 常用词且兼类及多义词
3. 难度不大但用法灵活的动词和词组
4. 相关的近义词或词组
练习的题目应该经过精心设计或严格筛选,自成体系,具有以下几个特点:
1.能集中体现某些语言基础知识和现实语境。
2.有益于提高语言技能实际运用能力题。
3.有利于培养学生分析、判断、推理以及创新等综合能力题。
4.能体现近几年英语高考试题设计意图和风格题。
5.难度适中,内容更贴近现代生活,语言更符合语言国家的文化习惯。

在动词词义区别方面,今年普遍出现对一些较为常用的动词之间的区别进行考查,这和前几年有相同之处。试题构成上来说,在全国高考试卷中,往往采用一些常用但区别又很微妙的动词来考查学生对语言的敏感程度和准确理解。比如:全国卷I第22题,就要求对几个常用到的动词:reach, miss, lose及catch在具体语境灵活区别,同样,在该套试题中第27题,要求考生对几个表示“破坏”意思的词区别:damage, hurt, hit及 strike。全国卷II第15题,要求区别forbid, allow, follow及ask几个词。天津卷第6题,要求对load, hold, fill及support进行区别。广东卷第24题,要求考生对come,grow, go及get等常用词在一个特定语言环境中的恰当运用。 山东卷第25题,也有类似的词义区别:make , turn, grow及get等。浙江卷第20题,要求对go, tell, write及say等词在具体语言环境中的恰当运用。 湖北卷第22题,要求对grow, develop, increase及raise等词进行细微区别。安徽卷则要求学生对leave, remain, delay及desert 在具体语境中进行合理运用。
在动词短语方面,今年在全国各地高考试卷中出现的短语累计共有14道题目,这些短语分布在:福建卷第28题,对pick out, make out ,pick up及make up区别。重庆卷第28题,对get along, come on, watch out及set off在具体语境中的合理运用。江西卷第34题,要求就turn up, make up ,fix up, set up 四短语进行细微区别。陕西卷第14题,要求对turn构成的短语:turn to, turn on , turn off, turn over 进行精确运用。天津卷第8题,要求就refer to, speak of, focuse on 及come to 进行恰当运用。广东卷第25题,对break out, get out, put out , come out 细微区别。 山东卷第34题,对take up, save up, keep up, draw up 进行区别。浙江卷第8题,要求对look up, take down, work out及bring out在具体语境中合理运用。可以说,在湖北卷中,今年就短语的考查相当频繁,共在四道试题中考查了, 分别为:第25、26、27和28题中出现。第25题要求区别come构成的固定短语:come up, come out, come about, come over;第26题要求区别see through, work out, look into, watch over;第27题要求区别call on, call up, call for, call in;第27题要求区别turn up, go back, die down, blow out。四川卷第25题,则要求对get down, get through, give in, give away进行合理运用。安徽卷第33题,要求对come down, take down, turn over, go over在具体语境中恰当运用。辽宁卷第22题,则对break构出的短语区别:break down, break up, break in和break out 。
通过对上面短语考查的对比,我们可以看出,短语的考查在今年的高考试卷中难度不算大,但试题占的比重很大,尤其在完形填空中。另外,各地的试题对比,就很容易看出短语的考查还有相同的,比如浙江卷第8题和安徽卷第33题,都考查了take down。再如陕西卷第14题和湖北卷第27题、安徽卷第33题都考查到了turn构成的短语。
二、动词短语考查中一些典型问题的分析
根据评卷抽样分析,06年英语动词短语考查平均得分不高,其主要问题在于中学生的动词短语辨析能力欠缺,反映出考生的基本技能和基础知识依然有待提高,不少考生连基本动词短语的意思都不清楚,这需要引起我们對教学的重视。在评卷的过程中,我发现和总结了考生的以下几种典型问题:
(一)基本动词词汇问题
考生基本动词词汇的问题反映在:
1. 记不清基本动词词意, 如: damage, struck, forbid, respond, reflect, focuse , desert等。
2. 分不清一些这些动词短语之间的区别, 如: refer to 和speak of, get along和set off , break out和come out,call up 和 call on等。这些现象说明学生记忆动词词汇和动词短语的时候非常不准确,只停留在似是而非的和一知半解的感觉上。
(二)基本知识问题
1) 动词搭配不当。如:
to turn ( make ) a good researcher, grew ( went ) green,to raise ( develop ) habits,put ( make ) up jokes (2005江苏卷 )
2) 短语记忆不牢,似是而非。如:
Come about , look into, died down , take down, turn to, take up,mean to cheat等
3) 词义用错问题。如:
lost ( missed ) the last bus, fill ( hold ) 40 people, left ( remained )in the tea house
(三) 应试能力和技巧问题
1)不注意分析句子结构和句式变化,而误定了选择方向。
2)因未认真分析语境,而未能正确理解和把握信息。
例如:In our childhood, we were oftenby Grandma to pay attention to our table manners. ( 2005江苏卷 )
A. demandedB. reminded C. allowed D. hoped
【分析】考生很可能选择A项,但根据语境, 此处应为经常“提醒” 之意。因此,答案为 B。
The chance passed and I didn’tit. ( 2006江苏卷 )
A. take B. haveC. lose D. find
【分析】考生很可能选择B项,但根据语境, 此处应为“抓住机会”之意。因此,答案为 A 。
3)因产生思维定势而未能正确理解句意。
例如:We’re going towith some friends for a picnic. Would you like to join us? (2004北京春季第27题)
A. get in B. get over C.get along D. get together
【分析】考生很可能选择C项,get along with sb.“与…相处”。但根据句意,此处应为“欢聚”之意。因此,答案为D。
We didn’t plan our art exhibition like that but itvery well ( 2001全国卷 )
A. worked outB. tried out C. went on D. carried on
【分析】该题考查考生对题干中句子的理解和对几个动词短语的掌握情况。句子的意思是“我们本没有那样计划我们的美术展览,但结果是它进行得非常好。”根据句意,选项中惟有A项符合这一要求。选择B项和C项的考生不知道work out、try out、go on和carry on的确切含义。
三、动词和动词短语的复习
(一)夯实基础,增加输入
语言学习,需要大量的语言知识积累,同样能力的提高是以知识为基础的,没有一定量的知识积累和技能,就转化不成一定质的能力。高三复习中我们应该系统地复习好教材,巩固所学知识,熟练技能。首先,复习要立足于《考试大纲》,着眼于复习实效, 要在教材复习中巩固语言知识。有针对性地复习一些常用动词和动词短语,夯实基础。教师们在课堂教学中,应该针对同学们的不同问题,采取相应的解决措施,帮助学生有计划、有系统、有步骤地归纳复习。学生在复习阶段要全面、牢固地掌握中学阶段所学的常用动词和动词短语,并有意识地多记一些英语习惯用法。
其次,增加输入,拓展视野。教师要引导学生尽可能多地从不同渠道、以不同形式接触和学习英语,亲身感受和直接体验语言及语言应用。通过多样化的教学活动,启发思维,引导学生主动学习,及时检测,促进学生知识结构和思维方式的转变,并实现最终的教学目标。因此,我们教师应该充分利用英语教材以及有利于发展学生综合语言运用能力的其它所有学习材料和辅助设施来提高学生学习英语的积极性,鼓励学生利用多种资源,拓宽学习和运用英语的渠道,创造自主学习的条件,改进学习方式,提高学习效果。
(二)开发智力,提高能力
动词和动词短语的考查在语境中进行,这种趋势在单选题和完形填空中尤为突出,几乎每个小题都设计了一个独立的语境,没有特别难的语言点,考查点都是常见常用的内容。学生对这类试题无法说难,但又往往难于确定正确答案,反映他们语言实际灵活应用能力不足。因此,教师要引导学生通过亲自发现、归纳、分析、运用所学动词和动词短语提高运用语言知识的能力。教师应根据高考要求给予扩展性的补充,并指导学生对所学知识进行综合运用的训练,以提高综合运用知识的能力。要培养学生的综合运用能力,在教学中应让学生多观察、多思考、多分析、多实践,并在不同的语境中去体验其真正的用法。语言知识的运用和语言技能的训练,要具有更大的灵活性和实用性。就是要结合特定的具体环境去创造性地灵活而又正确地使用英语。
(三)增加训练,把握技巧和策略
教与学要注重基本技能和基础知识的培养,最后阶段复习应该以练巩固双基,以练提高语言综合能力为主。从练入手,发现问题,及时应付学生的运用知识能力的变化,切中要点。所以高三复习课要实行“先练后讲”的原则。教学思路应由过去的“讲解—训练—记忆”转变为“训练—讲解—归纳”。教师的正面传授知识要变为拔乱反正,即帮助学生不断发现问题,纠正错误,寻求正确答案。学生“先练”中的问题就是教师“后讲”中的重点。这种英语复习教学的特点是从结果入手,寻找过程,反问一个“为什么”。以前的教学是把学生从未知领域引导到已知领域,高三复习教学要解决知其然还要知其所以然的问题。教师应该从练习入手抓语言知识的应用,从结果入手找原因,一正一反,不断强化训练,学生的语言运用能力就能逐步提高。复习课应尽量采用归纳法授课,培养学生观察、发现、分析、比较、归纳及解决问题的能力。要求同学不但掌握所学动词和动词短语的意义而且要注意其在不同语境中的用法。从练入手,应该练什么样的题目?题海茫茫,教师要严格控制。所训练的动词和动词短语选择的依据应该是:
1. 考綱的词汇和短语
2. 常用词且兼类及多义词
3. 难度不大但用法灵活的动词和词组
4. 相关的近义词或词组
练习的题目应该经过精心设计或严格筛选,自成体系,具有以下几个特点:
1.能集中体现某些语言基础知识和现实语境。
2.有益于提高语言技能实际运用能力题。
3.有利于培养学生分析、判断、推理以及创新等综合能力题。
4.能体现近几年英语高考试题设计意图和风格题。
5.难度适中,内容更贴近现代生活,语言更符合语言国家的文化习惯。
