Ⅲ.阅读表达
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
[1] It is now possible to watch live sport on television on any day of the week， and the current amount of reporting will undoubtedly increase further in years to come. This is certainly having an influence on the live sports events themselves， and there are both benefits and shortcomings to this.
[2] Why has there been such growth in televised sport？ For one thing， with digital broadcasting， there are now many more TV channels than there were even ten years ago. However， sport has become an important form of entertainment， appealing to both men and women.
[3] What are the benefits of this state of affairs？ One obvious advantage to the profession is the addition of money provided by television companies. Large football clubs benefit financially from TV income and the top players can command very large salaries. Less popular sports also receive money that can be used in training and awareness－raising. What's more， there is a health benefit to some of the population， because through televised sport， more people have become interested in actually playing sport.
[4] However， ________________ if so much sport is on television. Considering football again， many small clubs have suffered financial losses recently， as they cannot compete with the large ones. There has been a general falling in ticket sales， especially among smaller clubs. Fewer people attend live matches nowadays， preferring to watch from the comfort of their living room. And ticket prices have risen greatly.
[5] To sum up， while televised sport has created many opportunities and benefited certain people and clubs very much， it has also been responsible for changing the nature of live sports events for ever.
36．What is the main idea of the text？ (no more than 8 words)
37．What helped increase TV channels？ (no more than 2 words)
38．Point out the advantage of televised sport which does not concern money in Paragraph 3. (no more than 3 words)
39．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words. (no more than 6 words)
40. What does the word “it” (Line 3， Paragraph 5) probably refer to？ (no more than 3 words)

2013年高考英语语法题15分钟限时练习及答案汇总
参考答案：Ⅰ.1.C 考查冠词用法。句意：你今天看到的上海是一座不同于过去的城市。第一个空特指今天的上海市，用the；第二空指一座不同于过去的城市，用不定冠词。
2．A 考查名词辨析。句意：“如果你喜欢的话，我可以给你买点东西。”“那是个好的提议。”offer n. 提议vt.提供，提出，出价；service 服务；point 尖端，分数，要点；suggestion 建议，暗示。
3．B 考查副词用法。句意：我上了大学，同时，我所有的朋友都得到了收入颇丰的工作。从两个分句的意思连贯起来理解，D项语意不合适；A项和C项中的介词用错了。
4．C 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：我听说老板将安排我和另一家公司进行商务会谈，如果那样的话，我就不能在星期天和你去野营了。分析句子结构可知，因本句前后分别是两个句子，所以空格处要引导定语从句，且意为“假使那样”。that不能引导非限制性定语从句，也不能用在介词后，which则可以。
5．C 考查动词辨析。句意：这个士兵被指控临阵逃脱。accuse指控，控告，可构成短语accuse sb.of doing sth.；charge指控，控告，可构成短语charge sb.with doing sth.；scold责备；punish惩罚。
6．B 考查虚拟语气。句意：很难想象如果我在七岁时没爱上家乡的Melinda Cox图书馆的话，我现在会在做什么。根据句意和I would be doing可以判断本句是虚拟语气。尽管主句是现在的情况，但at the age of seven是表示过去的时间状语，故if从句中的谓语要用过去完成时，表示对过去情况的假设，排除A、C、D三项。
7．A 考查动词词义辨析以及代词的用法。句意：至于新的毕业生，找到一个能够获得经验的工作比一个能获得大量薪水的工作要重要得多。做此题可从第二空着手，第二空泛指一份工作，用one。
8．D 考查动词辨析。句意：她希望父母接受她的男朋友。approve of意为“赞成，同意”。
9．B 考查短语辨析。句意：为了提前完成任务，我们正全力以赴。A项虽然可表示“提前”，但有“预先”的含义，如：You can book some tickets in advance.你可以预先订票。C项形式错误；D项不能作状语。
10．C 考查状语从句。句意：我和他在那个著名的塔边照了相。分析句意和句子结构可知，空白处意为“在……地方”，且引导地点状语从句，只有where符合要求。
11．B 考查非谓语动词。句意：当这个男人受到警察的盘问时，他不承认在商店里偷了东西。动词admit后要用动名词作宾语，因此A、C不正确；同时根据句意可知本题强调偷盗动作已经完成，故选B。
12．A 考查非谓语动词。句意：这些野花看起来像覆盖在沙漠上的一床柔软的橘色的毯子。a soft orange blanket与cover存在主谓关系，因此要用现在分词作定语，它相当于定语从句which/that covered…而不定式作定语一般表示将要发生的动作，故不能选D项。
13．A 考查非谓语动词。句意：为了跟上这些野牛，印第安人经常不得不移动他们的营地。此句不是跟从句，故排除C、D两项。so as to 与in order to 都意为“为了，以便”，后接动词原形，但是so as to 不能放在句首，因为so的意思是“因此，所以”，是指前面已经有语句之后，才使用的。相应的，so that 也不能放在句首引导结果和目的状语从句，放在句首时，只能用in order that。
14．D 考查倒装句。句意：只有当我离开父母来到了意大利我才意识到我是多么爱他们。only置于句首修饰状语(从句)时，句子要倒装。由于realize所表示的动作发生在left之后，所以要用一般过去时。
15．D 考查交际用语。句意：“很抱歉让你等我。”“没关系，比尔。”A 、C两项均为回答感谢的用语，表示“别客气”；B项表示“请吧，去吧”。
Ⅱ.本文讲述了Russ的故事。Russ努力克服自己交际方面的困难，自我挑战，并参加演讲。动人的演讲深深地感动了作者，使作者懂得了什么是爱。
16．D 语境化选词。与前面的communication challenges—a speech impediment(语言障碍)，dyslexia(诵读困难)，and auditory problems是一种对比，故选表示转折关系的But。
17．B 语境化选词。从下文的“As I listened”和“As Russ continued to speak”可知。
18．C 语境化选词。前面“…for having been chosen one of the‘Outstanding Young Citizens’ in Ocean County，New Jersey”是结果，后面的是原因，故选C。
19．A 考查动词辨析。record “记录”；seize “抓住”；expect “期盼”。recall“回忆”，与下文的“those memorable moments”搭配，符合题意。
20．A 语境化选词。face up to “勇敢地面对”；concern about “关心”；escape from “从……逃跑”；put up with “忍受”。句意表示“勇敢地面对挑战”。
21．D 考查情态动词。句意：我知道他一定是热血沸腾。must “想必，一定”，表示作者当时的肯定推测。
22．C 语境化选词。从下面的“if they could see him today”看出，导师应该是为他感到自豪。
23．D 语境化选词。从下面的“Russ was…for organizing clothing for the homeless，teaching preschool children about fire safety，and for playing Santa Claus for very sick children by driving up in a fire truck.”看出，应该是a volunteer fireman。
24．B 考查形容词短语搭配。be grateful for“对……心存感激”；be responsible for“负责……”；be fit for“适合”；be anxious for“担忧”。从下文的“for organizing clothing for the homeless，teaching preschool children about fire safety，and for playing Santa Claus for very sick children by driving up in a fire truck”看，应该是“负责……”。
25．A take sb. by surprise “使某人大吃一惊”。
26．C 语境化选词。从下文“Austin was just three years old when he died from an incurable disease.”看出是失去了他的侄子Austin。
27．D 考查连词。句意：在这个时刻，我还没有等眼泪顺着脸颊流下来，就又闭上了眼睛。before此处意为“还没来得及”，符合题意。
28．D 考查固定搭配。A silence fell over the room意思是“屋子里顿时一片寂静”。
29．A 语境化选词。从下文“by lifting up the audience with these words，‘Austin taught me how to love.’”看出，应该是演讲结束，故用conclude。
30．C 语境化选词。把“I have never thought of this day.”和“…no one had ever thought that Russ would made…as the star of the football team”结合看，应该是“事实上”。
31．A 考查固定搭配。make it意思是“成功，做得到”。
32．B 语境化选词。通过Russ的自我挑战和努力，他最后终于成为所在社区真正的“明星”。
33．C 考查介词的用法。by指“通过……方式”。
34．D 语境化选词。Russ的所作所为都是清清楚楚的。
35．B 语境化选词。从文章上一段的演讲的最后一句话“Austin taught me how to love”可看出答案。
Ⅲ.这是一篇议论文。主要讨论了电视实况转播体育节目的优点和缺点。
36．Advantages and disadvantages of televised sport
由本文的内容以及本文的主题句“This is certainly having an influence on the live sports events themselves, and there are both benefits and shortcomings to this.”可知本文主要讲述了电视实况播放体育节目的优缺点。
37．Digital broadcasting.
从第二段第二句“For one thing, with digital broadcasting, there are now many more TV channels than there were even ten years ago.”可知电视频道的增加是由于数字化广播的发展。
38．A health benefit.
由第三段最后一句“What's more, there is a health benefit to some of the population …”可知这是“对健康有益”与经济无关的优点。
39．There are/ will be (some) disadvantages
前一段提到了优点，可知此段应该是讲述缺点了。
40．televised sport
由画线词所在句“while televised sport has created many opportunities and benefited certain people and clubs very much, it …”以及it的用法，可知it应该指代前面提到的电视播放的体育节目。
