代词
代词可分为人称代词、物主代词、反身代词、不定代词、指示代词和疑问代词等。代词几乎是每年中考的考查部分,近三年中考的考查仍集中在不定代词上,所考题量占所考代词的 60% 以上。试题注重语境和情境,要求能够根据真实的语言环境运用各类代词。
我们可以得知中考对于代词的语法能力考察集中于以下六点:
(1)人称代词
(2)物主代词
(3)指示代词
(4)反身代词
(5)不定代词
(6)疑问代词
考点分析:中考对于代词的考察要求考生们:
(1)掌握了解代词的定义;
(2)辨析代词的种类;
(3)掌握代词的用法,尤其是人称代词(主格、宾格)与物主代词(形容词性、名词性)的用法;
(4)掌握一些特殊代词、不定代词的用法,并能熟练运用。
数词
表示数量多少或顺序先后的词称为数词。英语中的数词分为基数词和序数词两类。基数词表示数目“多少”;序数词表示数目的顺序“第几”。考查重点:日期的表达方法;某些数词的特殊表达形式;数词单位hundred, thousand, million的用法。
考向分析:中考对于数词的考察要求考生们:
(1)要求考生会听说读写基数词1-20(21-60要求会听会选)、四季,一周七天,年月日,这类会频繁出现于听力题的考题中。
(2)掌握序数词的构成及特殊形式的序数词,了解并能够运用数词的其他用法。

考查形容词性的物主代词和宾格代词。第一个空用形容词性的物主代词,修饰后面的名词e-dogs;动词give后面跟人称代词的宾格形式,且前面的名词是复数e-dogs,所以用them来代替e-dogs,故排除A/C;此处的to是介词,后面跟人称代词宾格;me是人称代词宾格,hers是名词性物主代词。故选D。

考查代词和it作形式宾语。you你;yourself你自己;it它,可作形式宾语或形式主语;it’s它是。根据“When you find...in a dangerous situation”可知,此处表示当你发现你自己处于危险的境地时,“你自己”应用反身代词yourself,故排除选项A和B。根据“right decisions will make...possible for you to get out of danger”可知,make it possible for sb to do sth.“使某人有可能做某事”,此时it为形式宾语,动词不定式短语为句子真正的宾语。故选C。
18. Don’t touch the machine, children, or you may hurt ________.
A. yourself B. myself C. themselves D. yourselves
【答案】D
【解析】句意:孩子们,不要碰机器,否则你们会受伤的。
考查反身代词。yourself你自己;myself我自己;themselves他们自己;yourselves你们自己。由前面的提示词children及后面的you判断,这里需用复数的反身代词yourselves。故选D。

C. something personal D. personal something

A. Both B. All C. Neither D. Either
【答案】C

考查代词辨析。both都;all都;neither都不;either任何一个。根据“They are too expensive for me. I’ll take the blue one”可知,这两个都太贵了,所以都不需要,故选C。
21. Different people have different hobbies. Some like reading books, and ________ like drawing pictures.

【答案】B
【解析】句意:不同的人有不同的爱好。有些人喜欢读书,有些人喜欢画画。

考查代词辨析。a little一点,修饰不可数名词;a few一些,修饰可数名词复数;little很少,修饰不可数名词;few很少,修饰可数名词复数。第一空,根据前文“I don’t know.”可知,此处表示没有消息,且空后“information”是不可数名词,所以用此处用little;第二个空,根据“haven’t seen each other for … years”可知,此处是有几年没见面了,且空后“years”是可数名词复数,应用a few。故选B。

C阅读理解
How quickly can you count from one to ten? Do you use ten different words to do it? Can you do it in English, or do you have to use your first languages? Do you count on your fingers? Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world. But scientists have discovered that it is not true.
People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers. In the United States, people think begin counting with their first fingers, which they extend or stick out. They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb(拇指)to count to five. Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten. In China, people count by using different finger positions. In this way, a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.
Besides ways of finger counting, scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers. Some languages have only a few words for numbers, and others have no words for numbers. A group of scientists studied aboriginal(土著的)people in Australia. These people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers. They don’t even have word for numbers. However, they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers.
In a similar study, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe (部落) in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as “one” or “three.”. They are not able to say “five trees” or “ten trees” but can say “some trees,” “more trees,” or “many trees.” Professor Edward Gibson said that mist people believe that everyone knows how to count, “but here is a group that does not count. They could learn, but isn’t not useful in their culture, so they’ve never picked it up.”
Although all humans are able to understand quantities(数量),not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting. Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives. Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math, too.

【答案】BCDDA
【解析】试题分析:这篇短文中作者给我们介绍的是关于数字和数学,不同的文化有不同的观点。不同文化的国家里,人们数数的方式是不同的,有些国家里根本没有表示数字的单词,他们不用数字来数数,但是他们同样理解关于数字的想法,故数字和数学并不是一回事。
1.B推理判断题。作者在这篇短文的开头连续问了四个问题,How quickly can you count from one to ten? Do you use ten different words to do it? Can you do it in English, or do you have to use your first languages? Do you count on your fingers?你从一数到十有多快?你用十个不同的词来数吗?你能用英语数吗,还是用你的母语?你用手指数吗?用这些问题开头的目的是一下子吸引读者的注意力,让读者对接下来作者要说的事情产生兴趣。故选B。
2.C细节理解题。短文的第二段中作者分别举了美国和中国人用手指数数的例子,美国人是先伸出第一个手指,然后再伸出其他的手指,最后是拇指,这样数到五,再用同样的方法伸出另一只手,数到十;而中国人用不同的手指的位置数数。通过这样的对比,作者想告诉我们不同文化的国家,使用不同的手指数数的方式,故选C。
3.D推理判断题。根据短文第三段中However, they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers可知选项是正确的;根据They don’t even have word for numbers.可知A是不对的;根据These people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers可知B是不对的;根据第三段的内容可知,澳大利亚的土著居民没有表示数字的单词,也没有动作来代表数字,但是他们仍然能理解关于数字的不同的想法。故选D。
4.D细节理解题。根据短文第四段的内容可知,这一段中作者给我们举了一个部落的例子,这个部落里没有关于数字的单词,他们也不用数字来数数。They could learn, but it’s not useful in their culture, so they’ve never picked it up他们可以学数数,但是在他们的文化里,那是没用的,所以他们也不学。由此可知选D。
5.A主旨大意题。这篇短文中作者给我们介绍的是关于数字和数学,不同的文化有不同的观点。不同文化的国家里,人们数数的方式是不同的,有些国家里根本没有表示数字的单词,他们不用数字来数数,但是他们同样理解关于数字的想法,故数字和数学并不是一回事。故选A。

How quickly can you count from one to ten? Do you use ten different words to do it? Can you do it in English, or do you have to use your first languages? Do you count on your fingers? Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world. But scientists have discovered that it is not true.
People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers. In the United States, people think begin counting with their first fingers, which they extend or stick out. They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb(拇指)to count to five. Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten. In China, people count by using different finger positions. In this way, a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.
Besides ways of finger counting, scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers. Some languages have only a few words for numbers, and others have no words for numbers. A group of scientists studied aboriginal(土著的)people in Australia. These people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers. They don’t even have word for numbers. However, they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers.
In a similar study, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe (部落) in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as “one” or “three.”. They are not able to say “five trees” or “ten trees” but can say “some trees,” “more trees,” or “many trees.” Professor Edward Gibson said that mist people believe that everyone knows how to count, “but here is a group that does not count. They could learn, but isn’t not useful in their culture, so they’ve never picked it up.”
Although all humans are able to understand quantities(数量),not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting. Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives. Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math, too.
