考向60语法填空解答名词/数词/形容词和副词类填空的3策略宏观分析1.根据句子结构和设空所作成分，确定所填词①名词(短语)和代词在句中常作主语、宾语，也作表语(如第2句中的amust)、定语。②空前有形容词、冠词、形容词性物主代词或介词时，空处考虑填名词。③注意一些介词加名词组成的短语，根据句意和搭配填名词。如：byaccident(偶然),withpatience(耐心地)等。④设空依然填名词，根据修饰词和谓语的数，结合名词的数的规则，确定填复数形式。2.形容词与副词的确定①形容词与副词的修饰对象不同，形容词修饰名词或代词；副词修饰动词、形容词、副词、介词短语或者整个句子。根据修饰对象的不同来确定所用的词性。②形容词常和系动词构成系表结构。③选用形容词还是副词由修饰关系决定，与位置的远近无关。策略一 词形转换---句法功能法与位置判断法【考情再现】1.(2020·新高考Ⅰ卷)Manypeoplehavethehobbyofcollectingthings,e.g.stamps,postcardsorantiques.Inthe18thand19thcenturies,________(wealth)travelledandcollectedplants,historicalobjectsandworksofart.答案与解析 wealthy 设空在句中作定语，修饰名词people，应用形容词，故填wealthy。2.(2020·全国卷Ⅱ)Bamboo:Chineselovetheir“LuckyBamboo”plantsandyouwillseethemoftenintheirhomesandoffice.________(certain)，thisplantisamust.答案与解析 Certainly 分析句子结构可知，设空在句中作状语修饰全句，应用副词，故填Certainly。3.(2020·全国卷Ⅱ)ChineseNewYearis________(celebrate)markingtheendofthewinterseasonandthebeginningofspring.答案与解析 celebration 设空处所填词在句中作表语，且设空前是不定冠词a，应填名词。故填celebration。4.(2020·全国卷Ⅱ)BranchesofPlumBlossoms(梅花):________(beauty)longcoveredwithpinkcoloredbuds(蓓蕾)makefantasticdecorations.答案与解析 beautiful 设空在句中修饰名词branches，应用形容词作定语。故填beautiful。5.(2020·全国卷Ⅲ)Asthesmallboat________(gentle)alongtheriverhewasleftspeechlessbythemountainsbeingsilentlyreflectedinthewater.答案与解析 gently 设空处在句中修饰动词moved，应用副词gently作状语，表“缓缓地”。故填gently。
