一、高考测试分析

名词在高考测试中占有重要地位,从历年高考试题可以看出,各省市试卷几乎都涉及到名词的考查,如抽象名词具体化、名词的可数与不可数问题、名词作定语、名词的所有格、名词词义辨析以及常见名词的固定搭配等。冠词也是高考英语的常考点,主要考查考生对冠词的基本用法的理解和掌握情况。此外,还涉及到冠词与名词共同考查的问题。冠词与名词一起合用有三种情况:即定冠词与单数可数名词可以表示类指;不定冠词与单数可数名词也可以表示类指;零冠词与可数名词的复数表示类指。

二、高考考查内容探析

(一)抽象名词的具体化与冠词考查

1.抽象名词表示具体或特定时,前面应用“不定冠词”。

(1)表示某种特性、状态、行为的具体表现,常用“a/an+抽象名词”;“a/an+adj.+抽象名词”的形式表示具体行为、一个方面。如:

China has got a good _______ for fighting against the flu with its careful and smooth organization. [2009年高考安徽卷]

A. reputationB. influence

C. impressionD. knowledge

【简析】A 考查抽象名词具体化。“get a good reputation”表示赢得好名声。influence“影响力,权力,势力”;impression“印象;感想”;knowledge “知识;认识;知道,了解;消息”。

(2)状态、思维行为的一次、一种、一类、一顿,常与have/take/get等词搭配。如:

For many Beijingers, dreams of living in_____green area are becoming____reality.

A. a;a B. the;the C.不填;不填 D.不填;a

【简析】A 考查了学生对抽象名词具体化的掌握。抽象名词或物质名词前或后加上表示性质类别的修饰词,指概念的“一种”“一类”“一次”等时,可用不定冠词,例如:Physics is a science.

(3)表示具有某种特性、状态、特点、情感、情绪的人和事等。如:

Washing machines made by China have won worldwide attention and Haier has becomepopular name. [2009年高考重庆卷]

A. a;theB. /;a C. /;the D. the;a

【简析】B考查冠词与抽象名词。worldwide attention“世界的关注”为抽象名词,看做不可数。第二空表示海尔成为一种很受欢迎的品牌。

2.抽象名词有前置或后置修饰语时,前面用不定冠词,使之具体化。如:

Some people fear that _______air pollution may bring about changes in_______weather around the world. [2009年高考江西卷]

A. /; theB. the; / C. an; theD. the; a

【简析】A 考查冠词用法。air pollution 是抽象名词,这里是泛指,weather是特指全球的气候,根据the weather around the world可知。

In order to find_______better job, he decided to study______second foreign language. [2009年高考四川卷]

A. the;a B. a;aC. the;theD. a;the

【简析】B该题的意思是:为了找到一个更好的工作,他决定再学习另外一门外语。第一空表示泛指;第二空用“a +序数词+名词”表示 “又一,再一”。

(二)冠词有无意义不同

有无冠词含义有别,这种现象常常是一些固定搭配,学习时可通过对比记忆。如:out of question 毫无疑问的,out of the question 不可能的;take place发生,take the place (of) 代替;two of them 他们中的两个,the two of them 他们两个;by day 在白天,by the day 按天计算;on earth 究竟,on the earth 在地球上等。

(三)名词的数和所有格

名词的数主要包括名词的可数与不可数、可数名词的单复数问题、名词的类指以及名词复数的使用。如:

The ______ shoes were covered with mud, so I asked them to take them off before they got into _______ car. [2009年高考江西卷]

A. girl’s; Tom’sB. girls’; Toms’

C. girls’; Tom’sD. girl’s; Toms’

【简析】C 名词所有格形式。根据题干后半部分的them可知对应复数girls。

(四)名词作定语

The ______is just around the corner and you won’t miss it.

A. bicycle’s shopB. bicycle shop

C. bicycles shopD. bicycle’ shop

【简析】B 考查名词作定语。在此bicycle是起修饰作用的名词,不表示所有关系而表示类别,且名词作定语须用单数形式,故bicycle shop正确。

(五)集合名词与谓语

1.某些集体名词,如:family,team,class,club,audience,committee,crowd,government,party,public,enemy,group,population,couple等作主语时,如果作为一个整体看,谓语动词用单数;如果作为成员讲,谓语动词用复数。某些集体名词,如:people,police,cattle等,只有复数形式,谓语动词须用复数。如:The police are searching for him.警察们正在搜寻他。但people作民族讲时,用作单数。

(六)名词近义词在语境中的辨析

The World Health Organization gave a warning to the public without anywhen the virus of H1N1 hit Mexico in April, 2009.[2009年高考福建卷]

A. delayB. effortC. schedule D. consideration

【简析】A 名词词义辨析。delay:耽搁,延误;effort:努力;schedule:时间表;consideration:考虑,体谅;关心。题干意思是:当甲型H1N1流感2009年4月袭击墨西哥时,世界卫生组织毫不犹豫地向人们提出了警告。
