考查谓语动词时态及语态语法填空例析
“一般过式时”是近几年语法填空谓语动词考查的重点。此外,还考查了“过去进行时”以及表虚拟语气的“had done结构”。
[例1] The sun was setting when my car 31 (break) down near a remote and poor village. (2007年广东省高考)

解析:broke。sb. was doing sth. when sth. did表示“某人正在做某事时,这时发生了……”。
[例2] Besides, shopping at this time of the year was not a pleasant experience: people stepped on your feet or 34 (push) you with their elbows (肘部), hurrying ahead to get to a bargain. (2009年广东省高考)
解析:pushed。根据前面的连词or可知,此处应用一般过去时与stepped在时态上保持一致。stepped和pushed作并列谓语。
[例3] After a four-day journey, the young man 33 (present) the water to the old man.
(2010年广东省高考)
解析:presented。年轻人把水赠送给老年人是过去发生的动作,故用一般过去时。
[例4] He 19 (pretend) that a tiger toy was real and giving it a voice.
(2011年广东省高考)
解析:was pretending。根据下文giving it a voice可知,此处应用过去进行时。was pretending和(was) giving作并列谓语。
[例5] He walked in as if he 17 (buy) the school. (2012年广东省高考)
解析:had bought。as if从句所表达的内容与事实相反,表示对过去的虚拟,故用had done结构。
[例6] Her mother was excited. “Your father has at last decided to stop smoking,” Jane 40 (inform).
(2009年广东省高考)
解析:was informed。她的母亲高兴地说:“你的父亲最终决定戒烟了。” Jane被告知。由于动作发生在过去并且Jane是动作的承受者,故此处填was informed。
[例7] Suddenly, he 16 (find) that he had run out of salt. (2013年广东省高考)
解析:found。宾语从句中的had run out of salt为过去完成时,所以主句应为一般过去时。故此处填found。
4.考查形容词或副词的比较级
近几年来,出现了对单音节形容词或副词比较级的考查。
[例1] The teacher replied, “You tasted the water. I tasted the gift. The water was simply the container for an act of kindness and love. Nothing could be 39 (sweet).” (2010年广东省高考)
解析:sweeter。根据句子逻辑含义及语法可知,此处应填sweet的比较级sweeter。“nothing(具有否定含义的不定代词)+谓语+形容词比较级”表达最高级含义。句意为:没有什么比它更甜的了(言外之意它是最甜的)。
[例2] He was very tired after doing this for a whole day, but he felt very happy since the crop did “grow” 38 (high). (2008年广东省高考)
解析:higher。根据句子逻辑含义及语法可知,此处应填high的比较级higher。句意为:这样做了一整天之后,他非常劳累,但是他觉得很高兴,因为庄稼确实“长得”更高了。
[例3] It might have made it a little 21 (hard) for everybody because it meant they had to turn around, but that didn’t stop the kids in the class. (2012年广东省高考)
解析:harder。
根据句子逻辑含义及语法可知,此处应填hard的比较级harder。句意为:对于所有的人(学生)来说,这更加困难,因为他们不得不转身,但这并不能阻止班上的孩子们(这样做)。

参考答案及解析:
1. is waiting。由Hurry up可知,说话者表述正在发生的事,故此处使用现在进行时。
2. retires。主句中的will take over为将来时态,那么when引导的时间状语从句须用一般现在时表将来,故填retires。
3. was rescued。根据前面的was可知,rescue这一动作发生在过去,另climber为rescue这一动作的承受者,故此处填was rescued。
4. had had。根据句子意思可知,have这一动作发生在sold之前,故使用过去完成时。
5. will be improved。根据are和further可知,improve这一动作发生在将来,又因为improve和environment为逻辑上的动宾关系,故使用被动语态。
6. are repairing。根据has been cut off temporarily可知,水源已被切断且还未恢复,故repair这一动作还正在进行中,所以此处应为现在进行时,填are repairing。
7. went。由并列连词and和前面的felt可知,go这一动作发生在过去,故使用一般过去时。
8. opens。虽然next week表将来的时间,但根据and then tours可知,此处为一般现在时表将来,填opens。一般现在时可以表示按规定、计划或时间表要发生的事。
9. will be。根据前面的问句可知,小男孩是在谈论还未实现的将来的理想,故此处填will be。
10. was doing。因为答语是针对过去一个具体的时间点进行解释的,故使用过去进行时。
11. is covered。根据句子意思可知,此处是在陈述客观事实,故使用一般现在时,又因为about seventy-one percent of its surface是cover这一动作的承受者,所以填is covered。
12. advertised。the other day意为“前几天”,故此处为一般过去时。
13. easier。much可修饰形容词的比较级,再根据句意可知,此处应填easy的比较级形式easier。
14. nicer。根据后面的than可知,此处应填形容词的比较级形式。
15. better。根据句子意思可知,此处是指“一个更好的建议”,故填better。
