W：Sorry,DoctorWhiteisoutoftownandI’mnotinaitiontogiveoutshatkindorrmation.

女士首先说出“sorry”，奠定选项的基调。虽然“I”notinaitiontogiveoutthatkindofrmation,我职位不够去提供这样的信息。”对考生理解上来说有点难。但仔细推敲，可以发现那位老师不方便告诉学生信息，她不能告知学生考试成绩的。

【考点定位】校园学习类；

7.A.MovetoaneatdormitoryB.Findapersontoshareirapartment

C.CleantomwithtommateD.Writeanarticleabouttheirroommate

【】B

【解析】原文：

W:Whatweneedisroommatewhoisneatandclean？

M:Let’swritatintheaertisement,neatness--amust。

Q:Whataretwospeakersaregoingtodo

开头说whatweneedisroommatewhoisneatandclean，是文章的主题句，需要重点把握。因此此处要听到重点need，roommate和neat三个词，整个题目的内容也就大体明白了，明白他们谈话的目的是找一个干净的室友。后面的Let’swritatintheaertisement,neatness--amust，的neatness—amust,比较难听，但是只要前面一句听明白了，整个对话的意思也就明白了

【考点定位】生活类

【解析】M：IheardthatBobisplanningtostudyabroad

Q：whatdoesthA. the start of the paradeewomanimply

题关键是对Not和If从句的把握。

【】A

【解析】原文：

W：Isthesnackbaralwaysthisdeserted

M：It’stheendofthesemester.Everyoneisinthelibrary.

Q：Whatdoesthemanimply

本题难点在于考生容易混淆听力原文中deserted和dessert，原文中听力的意思是“这个点心店平时就是这么空吗？末提及snackbar中的dessert，而回答是因为考试临近，学生们都去图书馆了。从而隐含的意思是平时人很多

【考点定位】校园类；

10.A.Takeherbicycletotherepairshop.B.Leeherbicycleoutside.

C.Cleanthegarageaftertherainstops.D.Checkifthegarageisdry.

【】B

本题难点在于听力原文中whybother，意思是”就算快下大雨了，又有什么问题呢？它经历了很交更坏的但还是可以工作“。所以推测出她并不会管她的自行车。

11.C录音内容为“TheBauHouseisdifferentfromtheSnoopyCafé.Youdon’thetochooseadogattheBauHouse.Allthedogssit,playorrunaroundwhilepeopledrinkcoffeeandeatsandwiches.”句明确交代了theBauHouse与theSnoopyCafé的不同，考生需要听到这里时注意听该句后面的内容，就能选出。

12.B录音内容为“SowhenLaureyneedstohesomefunwithapet,shegoestothedogcafétoseeprincess.”虽然这句的前面有这句话“LorilikestogototheSnoopyCaféformanyreasons.”给考生一点干扰，并且后面还引用了Laurey自己说的两句话。但是还是可以明确听出Laurey喜欢去狗狗咖啡厅的原因。

13.A此题解题关键就是能把握全文的大意，全文介绍两种咖啡厅，虽然名字不同，但形式上的共性就是狗狗和人都可以在咖啡厅里一起玩乐，所以本文主要介绍的是一种新型的咖啡厅。并且录音里提到一句话也帮生得到这个“Youcandomoranthat.Youcanrelaxandplaywithdogsatnewdogcafes.”。

14.Accordingtothepassage,whatisdownshifting

15.Accordingtoarecentstudy,whatisthepercentageofworkerswhohadalreadydownshifted

：D.7%

解析：此题是细节题。我们听到这么一句话Thestudyfoundthat7%ofworkershadalreadydownshifted.判断选D。干扰项是文中出现的其他意思，12%orwhomareplanstodownshift,6%hopingtohedonesointhenext2years.我们看出12%是打算，6%是近两年。

16.InLucyGrant’sopinion,whydoesdownshiftingrequirealotofthoughtsandplanning

：D.Unexpectedproblemayarise

解析：此题是句意推断题。问的是根据这个人的观点，为什么人们在放慢生活节奏的时候要考虑和很多事呢？我们听到这么一句话somepeoplewillhesitatebecauseydon'tactuallybelitheycanmakeithappenwhileotherswillrushintodownshiftingtodiscoverthattheirdreamendsupwithfinancialcrisis。人们不相信这会发生，而那些在没有准备就去downshift的人们，他们的美梦最终被经济危机所击败，这里的经济危机就是意料不到的问题。所以判断出是D选项。

MAN:Yes,that’sfine.Thankyou.

WOMAN:Noproblem.

17.XW94702人员的问题：Youraccountnumber,please很明显地让考生集中注意力于以下男顾客的回答，标志明确，认真听即可捕捉到准确信息。

18.Electricity整个对话几次提到了checktheelectricity这件事。上一次是工程师临时有事，没有完成检修任务。此次打电话的目的出正是如此—说明情况并重新预约下次上门维修的时间。只要捕捉到这个组，填对这个空不是给事。

19.engineer类似上题，文中几次提到了engineer（检修服务的实施和提供者），前一次因故没有完成任务，再次约定时间。此空较容易。

20.Wednesday听力填空中这种时间词很容易在对话中捕捉到，一般前文都会有一些指示词提示同学们注意这里。原文中IcanarrangeforanotherengineertovisityouonWednesday.一句话中包含了两个空的正确。如果次没有听清，第二次播放录音时注意认真听，很容易就能写出正确。

2022年高考英语8个易错知识点

错点1名词的单复数形式的误判

【典例】—What do you think the should do first?

—They should learn to take as well as share rights in life.

A. grown-up; responsibility

B. growns-up; responsibility

C. grown-ups; responsibilities

D. growns-ups; responsibilities

错因分析：有些考生以为grown是复合名词的中心词，其复数形式应该在grown后面加-s;另一方面认为responsibility是不可数名词，没有复数形式，从而错选B.其实，grown-up没有中心名词，其复数形式应该在up后面加-s;同时根据语境可知，responsibility指义务，该单词作“义务，职责”讲时，可作可数名词或不可数名词，故正确选C.

复合名词的复数形式一般在中心名词后面加-s，如：looker-on → lookers-on， son-in-law → sons-in-law;但是当复合名词没有中心名词时，其复数形式是在的词后面加-s，如：grown-up → grown-ups; go-between → go-betweens.

易错点2名词的格的误用

【典例】—Look! This is .

—Very beautiful. When did she take it?

A. my mother‘s picture

B. my mother in the picture

C. a picture of my mother

错因分析：考生可能受汉语思维的影响，错选A或B;也可能受英语双重所有格的影响，错选D.根据语境可知，正确选C.

my mother‘s picture，意为“我妈妈所拥有的照片”，暗含“照片上不一定是我妈妈”; a picture of my mother‘s意为“我妈妈所拥有的照片中的一张”，同样，暗含“照片上不一定是我妈妈”; a picture of my mother意为“我妈照片(照片中是妈妈)”;my mother in the picture意为“照片中我的妈妈”，暗含“不是真实的妈妈”。

易错点3名词作定语的误用

【典例】—Where does your sister work， Jack?

—She works in a .

A. shop of cloth

B. cloth‘s shop

C. shop with clothes

D. clothes shop

错因分析：有些考生会因为对名词作定语的用法运用不当而错选B.其实，clothes“服装”只有复数形式，而单数形式“布店”应用shop for cloth或cloth shop，因此，根据语境可知，正确选D.

名词作定语时一般用其单数形式，然而，名词parents， clothes， sports等，作定语时必须要使用其复数形式。另外，man， woman作定语时，如果中心词是单数，则用其单数形式;如果中心词是复数，则用其复数形式。

易错点4对不可数名词的应用判断失误

【典例】—I find it very difficult to read novel you lent me last week.

A. the;不填B. a;不填C. the; aD. a; a

错因分析：考生可能以为空是特指对方上周所借给“我”的，故应填定冠词;第二空后面是抽象名词，为不可数名词，不填冠词，于是错选A.然而，此处knowledge之前须用不定冠词，he a good knowledge of意为“对……很了解”，是固定搭配，故正确选C.

英语中，有些抽象名词，如knowledge， history， failure， success， ， pleasure， surprise， honour等表示抽象概念时，其前面不用不定冠词，如：with pleasure， in surprise等。但是，当表示具体的概念时，其前面须用不定冠词，也可以用其复数形式。

易错点5对专有名词的应用判断失误

【典例】—Do you know Li Ming?

—Li Ming? Which one? I know Li Ming in our class very well. He is Lei Feng of our times.

A. 不填;不填B. a; aC. a; the D. the; the

人名前面加定冠词，指特定的某个人或某个人的主要特征。地名前面一般不用定冠词，但是当指特定某时期的地方或某地的主要特征时，须用定冠词。如：China → the China (of) today; America → the America of last century; the New York of China等。表姓氏的复数名词前面用定冠词表示夫妇两人或全家人，如：the Greens.

易错点6定冠词与不定冠词判断失误

【典例】—When did you meet her last?

—I don‘t remember exactly， but I‘m sure it was Friday when I went to the shop to buy football.

A. a; aB. 不填;aC. the;不填D. 不填;不填

错因分析：有些考生可能认为这两个空后面的名词前都不用冠词，从而错选D.其实，指一个特定的星期几时前面须用不定冠词;表示一个 足球 时，前面也须用不定冠词，故正确选A.

表星期几的名词前面一般不用冠词，但是当指某一个特定的星期几时，前面要加不定冠词。球类活动中，表球类的名词前不用冠词;音乐活动中，表乐器名称的名词前须用定冠词。但是，当它们不指活动，而是指具体的某件东西时，须用适当的冠词。

易错点7冠词与零冠词应用判断失误

【典例】—What do you think is the difference between man and woman?

—I don‘t think there‘s any difference.

A. the; theB. a; aC. 不填;不填D. a; the

错因分析：有些考生可能认为，表示类别时，名词前面须用不定冠词或定冠词，于是错选A或B.其实，man， woman， mankind的单数表示类别时，用零冠词。因此，正确选 C.

除了上述情况用零冠词外，下列几种情况也须用零冠词：表示家人(包括保姆、厨师、家庭教师在内)的名词前，但该类名词的首字母往往大写;表示种类的 短语 kind of， sort of， type of等后面的名词之前;在as/though的倒装让步状语从句中，放在句首的名词前;用by表示交通方式的短语中等。

易错点8受思维定式的制约

【典例】—Remember that where and when two different English question words.

—I see， but can you l us how to use them， sir?

A. beB. isC. areD. being

错因分析：有些考生没有弄清题意，就想当然地认为用where and when提问时，谓语动词用单数形式，于是错选B.其实，这里是指where和when这两个特殊疑问词，故正确选 C.

考生应该从思维定式中走出来，不要被一些象所迷惑，而应该从实际语境出发，对题目进行仔细的考虑。

上海高考可以带什么考试前两天考生应注意天气预报，了解高考当天的天气情况，如果有雨，提前准备好雨具。如果天气炎热，建议带上阳伞或者遮阳帽，避免身体出汗过多造成考前不适。注意，雨具放在考场外面就好了。

除了必备文具，携带的物品并非越多越好，比如清凉油、眼水等物品。不习惯使用就不必携带，删繁就简，轻装上阵也是好的。原因，记得带上一些酒精、口罩等防疫物品。

2015上海英语高考真题阅读理解 (A)

Look to many of history’s cultural symbols, and there you’ll find an ancestor of Frosty, the snowman in the movie Frozen. It appeared on some of the first tcards, starred in some of the earliest silent movies, and was the subject of a couple of the earliest photos, dating all the way back to the 1800s. I discovered n more about one of humanity’s earliest forms of life art during sral years of research around the world.

For example, snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages, built with great skill and thought. At a time of limited means of expression, snow was like free art supplies dropped from the sky. It was a popular activity for couples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art. Some were created by famous artists, including a 19-year-old Michelangelo, who in 1494 was appointed by the ruler of Florence, Italy, to build a snowman in his mansion’s courtyard.

The Miracle of 1511 took place during six freezing weeks called the Winter of Death. The city of Brussels was covered in snowmen—an impressive scene that told stories on ry street corner. Some were political in nature, criticizing the church and government. Some were a reflection of people’s imagination. For the people of Brussels, this was a defining moment of artistic . At least until spring arrived, by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.

If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed, don’t worry: I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today. Every year since 1818, the people of Zurich, Switzerland, celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman. On the third Monday of April, the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradeen who throw bread to the crowds. The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a 40-foot pile of firewood. After the bells of the Church of St. Peter he rung six times, representing the passing of winter, the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes, winter is considered officially over—the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.

66. According to the passage, why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?

A. People thought of snow as holy art supplies.

B. People longed to see pieces of snow.

C. Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.

D. Building snowmen ed people dlop their skill and thought.

67. “The heyday of the snowman” (paragraph 4) means the time when___________.

A. snowmen were made mainly by artists

B. snowmen enjoyed great popularity

C. snowmen were politically criticized

D. snowmen caused damaging floods

68. In Zurich, the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes__________________.

B. the coming of a longer summer

C. the passing of the winter

D. the success of tradeen

69. What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?

A. They were appreciated in history

B. They he lost their value

C. They were related to movies

D. ThQ：whatdoesthewomanmeaney vary in shape and size

Scary Bunny

The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) is the first full-length feature film made by directors Nick Park and St Box with their amazing plasticine (粘土) characters Wallace and Gromit. It won an Oscar in 2006, and if you watch it, you’ll understand why. It’s an absoluy brilliant cartoon comedy.

Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit he started a company to protect the town’s vegetables from gry rabbits. Howr, just before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorising the town. It is attacking all the vegetables and destroying rything in its path. The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace and Gromit to catch the monster alive. But they will he to find the were-rabbit before gun-crazy ter Victor Quartermaine who is desperate to kill it.

The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes.
