品。分析句子结构可知,collected by Sir Hans Sloane是过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰名词objects,故空处是

4. (2020·浙江高考7月卷), ________ (discover) the best crops to grow and animals to raise.
答案与解析 had discovered by + 过去时间,表“到……为止”,该句谓语所表示的动作先于过去的时

5. (2020·浙江高考7月卷)—You are a great swimmer.

应用现在完成进行时,表动作的持续,强调一直在练习,填have been practicing。

的) artist, they ________ (point) down the river.
答案与解析 pointed and是并列连词,在该句中连接两个并列谓语,两个并列谓语时态应一致,根据 and
前的 smiled 可知,此处应用一般过去时,故填pointed。
7. (2019·全国卷Ⅲ)Our hosts many of their experiences and ________ (recommend) wonderful places to eat,
shop, and visit.

8. (2018·全国卷Ⅲ) When the gorillas and I each other, I just glad to find them alive. True to a gorilla's
unaggressive nature, the huge animal ________ (mean) me no real harm.
答案与解析 meant 设空处所填谓语动词与句中已有的谓语动词 frightened和was时态一致,应用一般过

meant—meant—meaning。
9. (2020·浙江高考7月卷改编)This style of farming for quite a long time. Then, with the rise of science, changes

微技能2 参考语境和并列谓语
(1)语境理解少不了:题干中没给出具体的时间状语时,应仔细分析设空处所在句前后句子中的谓语动词的
时态,弄清动作发生的时间及顺序,确定所填谓语动词的时态。
(2)瞻前顾后找并列:①可根据并列连词 and, but, or, as well as, rather than, both ... and ..., neither ... nor ...,
either ... or ..., not only ... but also ...等前后的谓语动词形式确定所填谓语动词的时态;②同一个主语连接两个或两

________ (mean) we the chance to obtain information about how the moon ________ (construct)”.
答案与解析 means; is constructed 主句是一般现在时,故because引导的从句也用一般现在时,主语是
it,该处谓语动词用第三人称单数形式means,故填means。第二空是how引导的宾语从句的谓语动词,主语the
moon与动词construct之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,means后的宾语从句是一般现在时,该处用一般现在时,
又主语the moon是单数,故填is constructed。
11. (2019·全国卷Ⅱ)Picking up her “Lifetime Achievement” award, proud Irene ________ (declare) she no plans
to retire from her 36yearold business.
答案与解析 declared 本句为主从复合句,设空后的“she had no plans to retire from her 36yearold business”
为宾语从句,设空处在句子中作主句的谓语,应与宾语从句谓语时态一致,用一般过去时,故填declared。12. (2020·天津高考7月卷)I never ________ (worry) about my son while I was away because my mother kept an
eye on him.
答案与解析 worried 句意:我不在的时候从不担心我的儿子,因为我母亲会照看他。while引导的从句是

(时尚).
答案与解析 will have/has 句意:当学校里每个学生都穿校服时,没有人需要/会担心时尚问题。本句是由
when引导的时间状语从句,遵循主将从现原则,因此,主句可以使用将来时will do;根据语境可知,本处叙述
的是客观事实,因此,也可用一般现在时,主语是nobody,谓语用has。故填will have/has。
14. (2019·浙江高考)One study in America that students' grades ________ (improve) a little after the school
uniforms.
答案与解析 improved 句意:美国的一项研究发现,在学校推行校服制度后,学生的成绩有所提高。分
析句子成分可知,设空处在句子中作宾语从句的谓语,宾语从句中的时间状语是 after引导的时间状语从句,主
从句时态应保持一致,宾语从句应用一般过去时,故填improved。
微技能3 时态呼应判断法
①在时间、条件状语从句中,主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时;主句用一般过去时,从句用一般过
去时。
②在宾语从句中,如主句用一般过去时,从句应用过去的某种时态;从句表客观事实或真理,用一般现在
时。
微技能4 固定句型判断法
①祈使句+and/or/otherwise+陈述句,陈述句用一般将来时。
②This/It/That is+the+序数词+time+(that)从句,从句用现在完成时。
③This/It/That was+the+序数词+time+(that)从句,从句用过去完成时。

⑥no sooner/hardly had sb.done sth.than/when sb./sth. did ...

策略二 辨别逻辑,析主动或被动
【考情再现】
15. (2020·新高考Ⅰ卷) of a museum open to the public ________ (call) galleries or rooms. Often, only a small
part of a museum's collection on display.
答案与解析 are called 根据下一句的时态结合此处描述的是客观情况可知,该句应用一般现在时;主语
The parts 与call是被动关系,应用被动语态,且主语The parts 是复数概念。故填are called。
16. (2020·全国卷Ⅲ)The artist was sure ________ (choose), but when he presented his masterpiece to the
emperor's chief minister, the old man laughed.
答案与解析 be chosen 本句主语he与choose是被动关系,应用被动语态,且情态动词would后跟动词原
形。故填be chosen。 choose( 选择 )—chose—chosen—choosing 。
17. (2019·全国卷Ⅲ)On the last day of our weeklong stay, ________ (invite) to attend a private concert on abeautiful farm on the North Shore under the stars, listening to musicians and meeting interesting locals.
答案与解析 were invited 设空处在句中作谓语,根据时间状语 “On the last day of our weeklong stay”可知,
此处表发生在过去的动作,且主语we与invite之间是被动关系, 应用一般过去时的被动语态,且主语为we,
故填were invited。
18. (2020·浙江高考7月卷)Farming produced more food for person than hunting and gathering,so people were
able to raise more children. And, as more children were born, more food ________ (need).
答案与解析 was needed 主语more food 和need之间是被动关系,应用被动语态。as引导的时间状语从
句是一般过去时,故主句用一般过去时的被动语态。food为不可数名词。故填was needed。
19. (2020·浙江高考1月卷)People tend to focus on the first factor. However, greater attention should ________
(place) on longevity (长寿).
答案与解析 be placed 该句主语attention与place是被动关系,且设空前是情态动词 should,故填be
placed。place attention on“注重;关注”。
【技巧微点】
解题时要首先找出句子的主语,然后确定主语与动词之间的关系:①主语是动作的发出者,动词则用主动
语态;②主语是动作的承受者,则用被动语态。 只有及物动词 ( 短语 ) 才有被动语态。系动词和不及物动词 ( 短语 )
不能用于被动语态。
牢记常考的几种时态的被动语态
(1)①一般现在时:am/is/are done;②一般过去时:was/were done;③一般将来时:will be done;④过去将
来时:would be done;⑤现在进行时:am/is/are being done;⑥过去进行时:was/were being done;⑦现在完成
时:has/have been done;⑧过去完成时:had been done。
(2)含有情态动词的被动语态形式:情态动词+be done。
(3)牢记常考的不及物动词,如:remain, happen, occur, belong to等。
策略三 主谓一致定词形
【考情再现】
20. (2020·全国卷Ⅱ) This is why ________ (carry) special significance.
答案与解析 carries 这是一个表语从句,从句主语为动名词短语“decorating with plants, fruits and
flowers”,所以谓语动词用单数形式。故填carries。
21. (2019·全国卷Ⅰ)Of the nineteen recognized polar bear subpopulations, three declining, six ________ (be)
stable, one increasing, and nine enough data.
答案与解析 are 本句由多个分句并列组成,其中设空处所在的分句的主语是six, 为复数概念,谓语应用
复数,且下文的lack也是提示;本句叙述的是一般事实, 应用一般现在时,故填are。
22. (2020·天津高考7月卷) reached 18 in the early 1990s and ________ (remain) around that level .
答案与解析 has remained 根据句中时间状语ever since“从那以后”可知,该句用现在完成时。主语为
The number of medical schools,the number of 表“……的数目”,修饰复数名词作主语时,谓语动词应用第三
人称单数形式。remain “保持”是不及物动词,无被动语态,故填has remained。
23. (2020·天津高考 5 月卷)A survey carried out last year that in this city ________ (be) in favour of the
proposal on health care reform.
答案与解析 were 该句时间状语是last year,主句是一般过去时,故从句中应用一般过去时,“百分数+of+名词”作主语时,谓语动词的数与介词of后的名词的数保持一致。the middleaged指一类人,表复数意义,
谓语用复数,故填were。
【技巧微点】
(1)一致原则:①主语从句、不可数名词、单数名词、表示距离、时间、金钱等的名词、不定式(短语)或动
名词(短语)或不定代词作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式; ②定语从句谓语动词的数与其所修饰的名词或代词的
数保持一致。
(2)就近原则:①or, either ... or ..., neither ... nor ..., not only ... but (also) ..., not ... but ... 等连接并列主语时;
②在there/here be 句式中,谓语动词与最邻近的主语在数上保持一致。
(3)就远原则:“名词+介词(with/along with/together with/as well as/rather than/in addition to/including等)+名
词”作主语,谓语动词与第一个名词或代词在数上保持一致。
策略四 情态动词/虚拟语气凸显谓语
【考情再现】
24. (2020·天津高考7月卷)Jim says we ________ stay in his house as long as we leave it clean and tidy.
答案与解析 can 根据后面的“as long as we leave it clean and tidy”可知,Jim许可我们待在他的房子里,
此处表“许可”,故填情态动词can。
25. (2020·江苏高考)If I hadn't been faced with so many barriers, I wouldn't ________ (be) where I am.
答案与解析 be 此处是错综时间虚拟语气,根据空后where I am可知,主句是与现在事实相反的假设,
主句谓语动词应用would do形式。空前已有wouldn't, 故填be。
26. (2020·天津高考5月卷)You shouldn't ________ (scold) him for his poor performance. After all, he had done
his best.
答案与解析 have scolded 根据前后句关系可知,此处表示“本不该”,是shouldn't have done指做了本不
该做的事,空前已有shouldn't, 故填have scolded。
27. (2019·天津高考)The workers , otherwise they would ________ (accomplish) the task in half the time.
答案与解析 have accomplished 根据空前的“The workers were not better organized”可知,这是对过去情况
的含蓄的虚拟。表示与过去事实相反的假设,其句子结构相当于:从句:If+主语+过去完成时+其他,主句:
主语+should (would, could, might)+现在完成时+其他,设空前已有would, 故填have accomplished。
28. (2018·北京高考)In today's information age, the loss of data ________ cause serious problems for a company.
答案与解析 can 句意:在当今信息时代,丢失数据有可能给公司带来严重的问题。can表客观可能性
“有时可能”。
29. (2018·北京高考)They a better hotel if they ________ (drive) a few more kilometers.
答案与解析 had driven 由主句谓语“might have found”可知,if从句是对过去事实的假设,从句谓语用过
去完成时,故填had driven。
30. (2018·江苏高考)There is a good social life in the village, and I wish I ________ (have) to become more
involved.
答案与解析 had wish后为宾语从句,表示与现在事实相反的愿望,从句谓语用一般过去时,故填had。
【技巧微点】
情态动词和虚拟语气是高考设题的冷点
(1)情态动词不能单独作谓语,需和后面的实义动词或be动词构成谓语:情态动词+do/be;表对过去的猜测时用“情态动词+have done”。
(2)虚拟语气的考查重点在于判断句子是对现在、过去还是将来的情况进行的虚拟,判断出时间后再根据相
应的句型确定谓语动词的形式。
(3)牢记几个句式:①would rather that ... did (与现在或将来相反)/had done (与过去相反); ②It's (high) time that
... did/should do; ③wish that+ ... would/could do (与将来事实相反); wish that+ ... did/were(与现在事实相反); wish
that+ ... had done (与过去事实相反)。

Are all changes good?
It is a commonly held belief that as people get older, they become resistant to change. Their complaints that things
used to be better in the past or 21 . some new development is no good can be dismissed as the unavoidable thoughts of
people who 22 . (simple) don't like change and are therefore 23 . (able) to see the benefits of progress.
But is this automatically true? Are the views of an older person on a new development always to be disregarded?
This would suggest that every new development must be a good 24 . and surely that cannot logically be 25 . case.
Take 26 . (architect) for example. In the 1950s and 1960s, many older British people were highly critical of the new

society.
