高考重大信息解读】
语篇型语法填空题的形式为:在一篇200词左右的语篇(短文或对话)中留出10处空白,部分空白的后面给出单词的基本形式,要求考生根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容或所提供单词的正确形式,所填写词语不得多于3个单词。考生须灵活运用语法知识,如单词词性、动词时态、名词单复数、连接词、代词、冠词等判断各空白处应填写的内容。
【语篇型语法填空题对高中英语教学的启示】
语篇型语法填空题旨在考查考生在阅读理解的基础上对语法和语用知识的掌握情况,着重考查考生的综合语言运用能力。其“突出语篇,强调运用”的命题思路,不仅充分体现了语言测试的交际性原则,也很好地体现了高中英语课程改革的教学理念,与《课程标准》所提出的英语课程的性质完全吻合。因此,在高中英语教学中加强学生相应能力的培养,不仅符合《课程标准》的要求,也能够增强考生应对此新题型的能力,从而实现教考相互促进的良性循环。
首先,要转变态度,改变中学英语学习中存在的过分强调语法规则而忽视其语用功能,过分重视接受性技能的学习而忽视产出性语言技能培养的现象。学生们要加强听、说、读、写综合能力的发展,多进行语言产出和交际的机会,将学习英语的关注点转移到语言的社会功能和实际运用上来。
其次,要加强对学生语篇逻辑分析能力和精细阅读能力的培养。可以通过精读教学、课外阅读、写作练习等方式,促进学生的语篇分析能力和对语言的理解力和控制力的发展。
再次,应该继续重视语言的准确性。语法和词汇知识是综合语言运用能力的基础,因此巩固对语言基本知识的掌握依然重要。但语法和词汇不是孤立的语言项目,语法和词汇知识的学习要和真实的交际场景和语篇运用紧密结合起来。
最后,进行恰当的适应性训练有助于增强学生应对此题型的能力。语篇型语法填空题取代单句型语言知识运用题之后,基于语篇的针对性练习势必比句子层次的语言知识练习更能满足学生的需求和测试的要求。
