31.高三英语复习方法浅议
好方法等于好成绩。教无定法，教学有法。重点靠摸索，适当地借鉴。别人的好方法可以借来参考，但全盘套用就不一定实用。校情学情不同，教法学法有别。课堂教学一定要依据自己学校，不同班级，学生学习情况，因地制宜。
比方说，完形填空，通读全篇，了解大意，巧辩词意，瞻前顾后，上下联系；阅读理解，理解主题句，查找细节题，推断，概括，排除干扰项；任务型读写，上看下看，左观右瞧，细致观察，注意拼写；书面表达，审题立意，判断时态，选好人称，句式运用，灵活多变等诸如此类一系列所谓解题技巧光靠口头讲述或文字描写是很难奏效的。说得轻巧，做起来难。只有练习，才能过关。适度练习，亲身感悟，总结摸索，活学活用。
另外，许多拼写规则，解题技巧，讲时都懂，一写就错，多半是不熟的缘故，没有记到心里去。
任务型读写和书面表达常犯的错误，虽然讲过多遍，总是有人记不住，可能的原因是记忆方法不当，或是训练力度不够。如单词拼写（information ， environment， progress，destroyed等），词类运用(如its /it's， creativity/ creative， careful/carefully等)，时态语态选择（主动与被动分不清），动词运用（非谓语动词不能作谓语，情态动词can， may， should， must等后大多时候不能加to do 或doing等动词形式，特殊情况除外），第三人称单数使用等。经常做些填空，句型转换，单句改错或短文改错等类型的题目，不仅能培养细心的品质，提高观察能力，想象能力（尤其是填空题），还能增强记忆，加深印象，达到一定的效果。
高三后期英语复习，以综合训练题为主，兼顾基础知识强化和积累。同学们之间学习层次不同，面向全体，有效兼顾，共同进步也是大有裨益的。
32.提高认识达成共识
应试教育让我们身不由己地，机械地围着高考指挥棒旋转。高考考什么，我们就教什么或学什么。不考的题型一律免做，说是不能浪费时间。这样做的前景会是怎样的呢？
众所周知，同一个演员可以以不同的角色出现在不同的电影里。同理，同一个语言点或句式也可以以不同的形式出现在不同的题型里。万变不离其宗。此种题型不考，并不代表着这个语言点或这个句式不考。比方说，有的地方取消了填空题，单词拼写和短文改错。结果在平时的训练中就取消了这类题型训练。这是很不利于某些能力的提高的。有人说，好文章是改出来。只要有写作，就离不开修改。短文改错怎么能随便放弃呢？再如，单词拼写，填空题比单项选择题更能激发人们的联想和想象。平时教学中不做此种类型的训练是得不偿失的。要知道，想象力比任何知识都重要啊。
由此可见，不能让高考指挥棒棒打鸳鸯散。同一个语言点或句型可以通过各种不同途径加以训练和掌握，印象会更深刻，能力会更好地显现。
另外，名言警句不可少，少了素养难提高。不做考试的机器，要做就做大写人。。
33.英语里的形容词和副词
一个名词或一个代词一般情况下都不是孤立存在的，都会有意无意同一些词搞好关系，这样才显得灵魂饱满，不至于空乏。这些词在英语里有自己的称谓。它们叫形容词。另外，一般人都喜欢在茶余饭后说长论短，总喜欢拿人或物比较一番，比出个子丑寅卯。比方说，好的想更好，更好的想超好，很少有人想变坏，或坏的更坏，直至最坏。这就要用到英语里的级，即原级，比较级和最高级。不比不知道，一比见分晓。想用好的形容词修饰自己，就要多做好事哟。
当然了，人活着总得做事。什么时间做什么事，什么场合做什么事，怎样做，做得怎样以及做的次数，总得有个交代。这就分别要用到不同的副词帮忙，如时间副词(today， tomorrow， this week， next month，etc )，地点副词(here， there， everywhere， anywhere， etc )，方式副词(proudly， rudely， slowly，etc )，程度副词(deeply， completely， absolutely， etc )，以及频率副词(always， often， never，etc )等。它们可以用来修饰动词，形容词，副词，以及全句，这是副词的职责，它们也从不推诿。
李四光说：“观察是得到一切知识的一个首要步骤。”闲话少说，言归正传。请观察例句，仔细揣摩，重在感悟。

34.代词八大类各自有称谓
代词八大类，各自有称谓。指代人和物，避免常重复。
人称代词（I， me; he; him; she; her; it; it）;指示代词(this， that; these， those )，关系代词(who， whom， that， which )，指代清楚，关系明白，消除误会，减少损失。如果指代不清，关系不明就会造成考试丢分，生活伤心。物主代词(my， mine; our， ours; your， yours; his， his; her， hers; their， theirs)事物的所有权要分清，避免一些无谓的纷争。反身代词(myself， ourselves， yourself， yourselves， himself， themselves)强调亲历亲为，时时反省，勇于担当。相互代词(each other; one another)强调人与人之间多一些相互理解，相互帮助，相互信任，生活会更加美好。疑问代词（who， whom， what， which）认为既要相信真理，也要敢于质疑，不懂就问。不定代词(some， someone， somebody， everyone， everybody， many， much， little， etc)希望问题没搞清之前，不要乱下结论。使用不定代词，更加客观公正。
理论从实践中来，最终还要回到实践中去。在实践中感受代词，深刻领悟其用途，力争做到活学活用。

35.英语时态无处不在
时间是大家共有的，时态是英语特有的。什么时间做什么事，中文里只需要使用一些辅助词，如经常，正在，即将，已经等就可以表达清楚了，而英语却要使用动词不同的时态或句式。这些时态和句式常常难住了不少人。所谓时态，就是关注什么时间做什么事。这个问题弄清楚了，许多事情就好办了。
英语时态，无处不在。出口提笔，不离不弃。英语里共有十六种时态。最常见的，也是高考常考的以前只有八种，现在已扩充到十二种。每年高考英语试卷十五个单选题就有两三分考时态，完形填空里也偶尔出现，25分书面表达法几乎是句句离不开时态。由此可见，时态学好了，优势就是你的了。
学习英语时态，首先要记住不同时态的构成，它们相当于数学公式。以write为例，列出英语里常见的十二种时态，供参考。一般现在时(write/writes)；一般过去时(wrote);一般将来时(will/shall write);过去将来是（would/should write）;现在完成时（have/has written）;过去完成时(had written);现在进行时(is/am/are writing);过去进行时(was/were writing)；现在完成进行时(have/has been writing);过去完成进行时(had been writing);将来完成时(will/shall have written);将来进行时(will/shall be writing)。
光记住公式还远远不够。重要是要学会参悟语境，这是学好英语时态最重要也是最难做的。参悟语境，即通过上下文，抓住时间点，然后依据相关的时态规则，选定正确的时态。想做到这一点，平时要多听多看。听多了，看够了，感觉就找到了，就能够运用自如了。下面先列出一些句子，认真地读，仔细地悟，看看能否找到感觉。
1. He is always ready to help others./ She always wears a red dress./ She never stops talking!/ I watch TV for sixteen or seventeen hours a day.
2. She likes playing basketball./ She loves to tell jokes.
3. Everything goes well./ There goes the bell.

36.英语情态动词简介
英语里的情态动词，通俗地说就是说话的态度问题。就是所谓的态度决定一切（Attitude determines everything.）。说话要留有余地，不能把话说绝了，要客观公正，不主观武断（might， may， could ， can， will， should， ought to ）。能（can/ be able to）还是不能(can't)，要实事求是。敢(dare)不敢(daren't)做是一回事，该(should/ought to ，)不该(shouldn't /ough to )做是另一回事。有没有决心(will)做也是一个关键性问题。还有就是，该肯定时肯定(must/shall/have to)，不能一味否定(mus/shan't)。是过去常做的(used to /would)还是现在常做的(will)也要说明白。是肯定做了(must have done)，可能做了(can/could have done)，还是本不该做而做了(shouldn't have done/ought to have done )，本不必做而做了(needn't have done)，这些都是要弄清楚的，不能含糊，含糊可能要犯错误的。
说的多多不如做的多，还是看例句后再说。仔细观摩，认真揣测，深刻领会，用于实践。

37.什么什么的干活
吃什么，穿什么，用什么，说什么，写什么，玩什么，什么什么的没有一天离开过我们的生活，什么已然成了生活的必需。其实也早已成为高考英语试卷的热门句式。细心的人不难发现几乎每年的高考英语试卷都能见到它的踪影。虽说是英语试卷的常客，真正能熟悉它的不是全部。所以我想就此家伙的行踪作一专题介绍，希望有更多的人能够跟它做知根知底的朋友。
什么什么的，在英语中不总是翻译成什么，就像网友取网名一样，它也有不同的称谓，如某某的话，某某的东西，某某的事等。吃什么，穿什么，用什么，做什么等可以分别说成what to eat/what someone eats ，what to wear/what someone wears， what to use/what someone uses， what to do/what someone does， etc。美的，丑的，好的，坏的，善的，恶的等可以说成what is beautiful， what is ugly， what is good， what is bad， what is right， what is evil etc。
下面介绍一些成语和名人名言，通过双语视窗/中英对照进行观察分析，（或者通过中英互译练习）顺便掌握有关“what“的英语热门句式。
1.Record whatever one hears.有闻必录。
2.Make what is good still better.锦上添花。
3.Each does what he thinks is right.各行其是。
4.What we do willingly is easy.世上无难事，只要肯登攀。
5.No one picks up what's left by the wayside.道不拾遗。
6.What's frequently heard can be repeated in detail.耳熟能详。
7.What we learn with pleasure we never forget.乐意学的东西绝不会忘记。
8.What you hear may be false， what you see is true.耳听为虚，眼见为实。
9.Do what one thinks is right regardless of others' opinions.独行其是。
10.Maintain your enthusiasm no matter what happens.无论发生什么事都保持热情。
11.A wise man cares not for what he cannot have.聪明的人不在乎他不能得到的东西。
12.Master what is limited and one will be able to reach what is boundless.掌握有限，通达无限。
13.What is past is beyond help， what's to come is not yet lost.往者不可谏，来者犹可追。-《论语》
14.When one's hungry one eats what there is ;when one's cold one wears what one has.饥不择食，寒不择衣。
15.A man can ，indeed， be said to be eager to learn who is conscious ，in the course of a day， of what he lacks and who never forgets， in the course of a month， what he has mastered.日知其所亡，月无望其所能，可谓好学也已矣。-《论语》
38.蚂蚁爱英语
生物书，英语书都曾有过关于蚂蚁的报道。我也是从那里知道了蚂蚁的一鳞半爪。报道说：蚂蚁社会分工明确，各司其职，互不越位，爱岗敬业，任劳任怨，无蚁偷懒。另据报道，蚂蚁爱清洁也是出了名的。蚂蚁所到之处，是不留脏污的。蚂蚁深知，脏了周边环境，不利于自己生存。除此之外，蚂蚁对英语也是或多或少有贡献的。我们深知，英语在世界上的使用范围是很广的，由此推断，蚂蚁对英语有贡献，也就是对世界的贡献。蚂蚁是动物世界里的清洁卫士，也是人类世界的语言天使。空口无凭，有例为证。
我在英语词汇的海洋里，顺手打捞了一些蚂蚁(ants)，为蚂蚁的精神所感动。蚂蚁从不因为小，就自暴自弃。蚂蚁总是喜欢做些力所能及的事，哪怕是为人类。请看蚂蚁的奉献。
你的账户(account)需要蚂蚁(ant)来帮助，于是有了(accountant)。
能否公平公正地给予(accord)离不开蚂蚁(ant)来帮衬，于是又了和谐(accordant)。
从北极(Arctic)到南极(Antarctica)，数蚂蚁最为勇敢。
Ant和her在一起成就了雄蕊之粉囊(anther)。
蚂蚁(ant)之小，成就了大象(elephant)之大。
喜欢(fond)吃软糖的，给你(fondant)。
学会观察，成为观察力强的人（observant）。
Page 和ant 联合，成为壮观的场面。
巨人，杰出的人(giant)从来不小视蚂蚁（ant）。
好习惯成就好人生，居住者(habitant)多半有好习惯。
要申请，要上诉，请蚂蚁帮助（appellant;applicant）。
Aspire找到了蚂蚁(ant)，成为名副其实的有上进心的人（aspirant）。
学习蚂蚁（ant）任劳任怨的精神，就会拥有一个光辉的前程（a brilliant future）。
凡事皆有另外。说了蚂蚁N多的好，蚂蚁家族中可能也有不受欢迎的少数派。如(arrogant)总是骄傲自大；(malignant)有毒的，有恶意的；(pollutant)污染物质，等等。
君子坦淡淡，小人常戚戚。多看主流，不与少数派蚂蚁斤斤计较。
39.填空题比选择题更适合培养想象力
填空题比选择题更适合培养想象力，而想象力比知识更重要。看下面这道填空题，仔细观察题中所给的信息，想象出可能的答案，尤其要注意影响答案正确与否的关键词。请看例句The ship was_____for some rocks.
有几人想出下面不同的答案：1.made 2. repaired 3.destroyed 4.blocked 5.filled 6.heading 7.hit 8.built
每一个答案从句义上看都具有其合理性，但正确答案只有一个，即6.heading。因为受前后词语搭配影响，别的答案句义通，但语法搭配不合理。而heading 不仅句义通，而且语法也正确。
这道题一方面需要答题者尽情地发挥想象力，另一方面还要具有一定的语言基础知识，要看你的短语掌握的怎样。此题的成功之处在于不仅仅是为了选对ABCDEFG中的某一个，这远远不够。激发了做题者的想象力，这才是最重要的。
答案1.made for前不用 was；答案2.repaired后不能接for some rocks；答案3.destroyed后面应接by；答案4.blocked后面也应接by；答案5.filled后面应该跟with连用；答案7.hit要么后面接by短语，或者去掉它前面的was和后面的by;答案8.built后面for some rocks改换成in短语，或将rocks换成别的某个对象。答案6.heading与for连用表达朝某人或某物的方向移动。这句话的中文意思是：这艘船正驶向礁石。
