高考語法填空題型分為有提示詞和無提示詞兩種。筆者經(jīng)過多年的教學(xué)實踐總結(jié)發(fā)現(xiàn),無提示詞的設(shè)空處,通常需要補(bǔ)充連詞、介詞、冠詞、代詞、助動詞等,近4年來的全國卷和浙江卷基本上是每年考查3道題。下面筆者結(jié)合高考試題對語法填空中無提示詞題的解題進(jìn)行點撥。
2015—2018年全國卷、浙江卷語法填空題中有提示詞題和無提示詞題統(tǒng)計表
若兩個分句之間沒有分號、破折號或句號,則應(yīng)考慮填并列連詞或者從屬連詞。由上表可知,連詞是近4年全國卷和浙江卷考查的熱點。
若兩個或幾個單詞、短語或分句之間沒有連詞,可能是填and, but, or, when等連詞或者是考查both...and...,either...or..., neither...nor..., not...but..., not only...but also..., as well as等詞組。

可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)前面,若沒有限定詞(冠詞、形容詞性物主代詞、指示代詞等),且表示泛指,意為“一個,又一個” 時,用不定冠詞a/an ;如果該名詞表示特指,意為“這個,那個”或者表示最高級或順序時,就用定冠詞the。同時,也要注意含有冠詞的固定搭配或習(xí)慣用法。由前面表格可知,冠詞是近4年全國卷和浙江卷的??键c。

主要考查it以及人稱代詞、不定代詞等的選用。代詞是該題型的易錯點,近4年全國卷和浙江卷共考查了3題。考生在備考時要特別留意人稱代詞和不定代詞。

若空格后的謂語動詞是原形,特別是與上下文時態(tài)不一致或主謂不一致時,則很可能是填情態(tài)動詞或表示疑問的助動詞(do, does, did等)??疾橹鷦釉~的幾率也不大,近4年全國卷和浙江卷都未考查,但考生在備考中仍要留意。
