北京中考英語(yǔ)試題
在考生們輕松走出考場(chǎng)的同時(shí)，我們組織了教科研及教育教學(xué)一線專家對(duì)英語(yǔ)試題進(jìn)行了分析，幫助考生、老師了解今年的試卷特點(diǎn)和命題思路。
解讀北京中考英語(yǔ)試題
1 注重基礎(chǔ)，積極為考生搭建平臺(tái)。
2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題在難度結(jié)構(gòu)上整體保持穩(wěn)定，注重對(duì)基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)和基本技能的考查。例如，聽力理解和閱讀理解試題中，獲取具體信息和簡(jiǎn)單推斷這兩項(xiàng)強(qiáng)調(diào)基礎(chǔ)的試題占了大多數(shù)。
單項(xiàng)填空考查的也都是考生所熟悉的基礎(chǔ)語(yǔ)法點(diǎn)。
完形填空著眼高頻詞;書面表達(dá)中的兩道試題所涉及的話題，面向全體考生，盡可能做到讓各個(gè)層次的考生都有話說(shuō)，人人都有施展語(yǔ)言的空間。
總之，整張?jiān)嚲碜⒅鼗A(chǔ)，避免繁、偏、難題，旨在引導(dǎo)教學(xué)多關(guān)注基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)和基本技能，多關(guān)注主干知識(shí)，考查九年積累，盡可能為考生搭建一個(gè)更寬廣的平臺(tái)，做到讓各個(gè)層次的考生都有施展的空間，從而也為下一階段英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)夯實(shí)了基礎(chǔ)。
2 強(qiáng)化閱讀，注重提升學(xué)生的閱讀素養(yǎng)。
閱讀能力是每個(gè)人可持續(xù)發(fā)展的核心素養(yǎng)，學(xué)會(huì)閱讀是信息時(shí)代重要的學(xué)習(xí)方式。鑒于此，2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題高度重視對(duì)考生閱讀理解能力的考查，繼續(xù)強(qiáng)化閱讀考察力度，旨在引導(dǎo)教學(xué)重視閱讀這一重要的學(xué)習(xí)方式和手段，從而提升學(xué)生的閱讀素養(yǎng)。
2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題閱讀理解在選材上，注重高標(biāo)準(zhǔn), 突出“寬”和“泛”。所選素材語(yǔ)言地道，題材豐富，體裁多樣，試題涵蓋了應(yīng)用文、記敘文、說(shuō)明文和議論文幾大重要體裁。選材形式也更加靈活多樣，增長(zhǎng)了知識(shí)，開闊了視野，例如，旅行、購(gòu)物、學(xué)校生活、家庭生活、課外活動(dòng)、父親節(jié)、左撇子和捐贈(zèng)獻(xiàn)愛(ài)心等話題。
同時(shí)，考慮到初中生這一群體的認(rèn)知特點(diǎn)，試題在素材選取上統(tǒng)籌安排，教育性、人文性和趣味性作為一條主線貫穿全卷，試題在注重教育性和人文性的前提下，兼顧趣味性，在文章布局中適當(dāng)穿插了趣味性較強(qiáng)的小故事，這在很大程度上避免了單一枯燥的說(shuō)教，考生喜聞樂(lè)見，增強(qiáng)了整張?jiān)嚲淼撵`動(dòng)性。
例如，完形填空講述了主人公Molly給媽媽送圣誕禮物的暖心小故事;閱讀理解A篇以博客的形式，介紹了不同人的周末旅行活動(dòng);閱讀B篇記述了主人公Brian在別人的冷嘲熱諷中仍然堅(jiān)持夢(mèng)想，不忘初心，最終走向成功的勵(lì)志故事;閱讀C篇是一篇關(guān)于左撇子的科普文章;閱讀D篇探討了boredom對(duì)創(chuàng)造力的影響。
面對(duì)當(dāng)下高強(qiáng)度、快節(jié)奏的學(xué)習(xí)生活，作者大膽提出放慢腳步，遠(yuǎn)離喧囂，給心靈一片寧?kù)o的空間，多一點(diǎn)思考和沉淀。作者認(rèn)為這不但不會(huì)影響我們的學(xué)習(xí)和生活，反而更有利于創(chuàng)造力的發(fā)展;“閱讀還原”一文介紹了寫好文章的幾個(gè)小竅門，借考試這一平臺(tái)傳授知識(shí)，寓教于考;“閱讀表達(dá)”一文是一篇奇聞趣事，講述了一個(gè)漂流了108年的漂流瓶的故事，讀來(lái)輕松、有趣，活躍氣氛，緩解焦慮，利于考生答題。
2016年的閱讀理解考查在試題設(shè)計(jì)上更加嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)科學(xué)，干擾項(xiàng)均來(lái)自文本，設(shè)置有據(jù)可依。這在一定程度上避免了為了送分而送分的現(xiàn)象，引導(dǎo)考生回歸真正的文本閱讀，摒棄某些單純考試技巧的機(jī)械操練。
此外，為了更好地體現(xiàn)閱讀任務(wù)的真實(shí)性，所有文章都保留了標(biāo)題，這符合正常的閱讀習(xí)慣，較好地契合了閱讀教學(xué)。
3 試題貼近考生、貼近生活、貼近時(shí)代。
2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題在命制過(guò)程中堅(jiān)持“三貼近”原則，所選素材“貼近考生、貼近生活、貼近時(shí)代”，為各個(gè)層次的考生都搭建了一個(gè)展示自我、展示九年積累的平臺(tái)，增強(qiáng)了考生的成就感，充分發(fā)揮了考試的激勵(lì)功能。
例如，聽力理解中有關(guān)日�；顒�(dòng)、學(xué)校生活、課外活動(dòng)和父親節(jié)等話題;完形填空中給媽媽送圣誕禮物的話題;閱讀理解中有關(guān)周末旅行的論壇討論、左撇子及boredom創(chuàng)造力的影響等話題;書面表達(dá)中邀請(qǐng)交換生參加長(zhǎng)跑比賽等話題。這些試題無(wú)論是內(nèi)容，還是形式均為考生所熟悉，貼近考生、貼近生活，而且時(shí)代感強(qiáng)。
另外，試題在設(shè)計(jì)過(guò)程中考慮到初中學(xué)生的認(rèn)知水平和語(yǔ)言實(shí)際能力，男女生性別差異以及城鄉(xiāng)差異等因素，在試卷結(jié)構(gòu)布局上，根據(jù)需要在適當(dāng)位置設(shè)計(jì)了必要的圖片，輔助文字傳遞有效信息，圖文并茂，增強(qiáng)了試題的親和力，容易被考生接受，這也是試題人性化的體現(xiàn)。
4 試題融入社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀，立德樹人。
2016年北京市中考英語(yǔ)試題在設(shè)計(jì)上融入了社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀，注重對(duì)考生情感態(tài)度和價(jià)值觀的正向引導(dǎo)，堅(jiān)持立德樹人、育人為本，考生的答題過(guò)程就是一次潛移默化的接受人文熏陶的過(guò)程。
例如，完形填空一文講述了主人公Molly年紀(jì)雖小，卻懂得父母的不易，利用平時(shí)攢下的一點(diǎn)積蓄，給媽媽買了一副她心儀已久的手套。一份簡(jiǎn)單的圣誕禮物，一個(gè)大大的驚喜，圓了媽媽一個(gè)小小的夢(mèng)想，故事雖小，卻溫情、暖心，充滿了濃濃愛(ài)意;
閱讀B篇記述了主人公Brian在別人的冷嘲熱諷中堅(jiān)持夢(mèng)想，不忘初心，一路前行，最終走向成功的勵(lì)志故事;
閱讀D篇探討了boredom對(duì)創(chuàng)造力的影響。面對(duì)當(dāng)下快節(jié)奏、高強(qiáng)度的學(xué)習(xí)生活，文章作者大膽提出放慢腳步，遠(yuǎn)離喧囂，給心靈一片寧?kù)o的空間，多一點(diǎn)思考和沉淀。作者認(rèn)為這不但不會(huì)影響我們的學(xué)習(xí)和生活，反而更有利于促進(jìn)創(chuàng)造力的發(fā)展;書面表達(dá)第二道試題討論了為災(zāi)區(qū)小朋友獻(xiàn)愛(ài)心這一話題，緊扣“友愛(ài)、互助”這一主題，引導(dǎo)學(xué)生從我做起，從點(diǎn)滴做起，積極踐行社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀。
5 注重試題的選擇性，滿足學(xué)生多元智能需求。
為滿足學(xué)生的多元智能需求，給各個(gè)層次的考生搭建一個(gè)展示自我的平臺(tái)，2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題書面表達(dá)在考試形式上做了改革嘗試，兩道題目話題不同、形式不同，任選一道作答，給考生更多的選擇空間。作文①要求考生寫一篇電子郵件，突出“做事”;作文②要求考生就捐贈(zèng)獻(xiàn)愛(ài)心這一話題寫一篇短文投稿，注重“說(shuō)事”。
6 注重學(xué)以致用，以用促學(xué)。
測(cè)試的真實(shí)性是指試題中的語(yǔ)言活動(dòng)和現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用之間的一致性程度。2016年北京市中考英語(yǔ)試題中最能體現(xiàn)命題真實(shí)性原則的是聽力理解的“記錄關(guān)鍵信息”一題。試題任務(wù)接近或類似現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中語(yǔ)言使用的實(shí)際情境。
另外一個(gè)體現(xiàn)真實(shí)性的例子是“文段表達(dá)”一題。題目要求考生寫一封電子郵件，邀請(qǐng)交換生Peter參加長(zhǎng)跑比賽，這符合現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的語(yǔ)言使用情況。
相對(duì)真實(shí)的測(cè)試任務(wù)能更好地引導(dǎo)教學(xué)關(guān)注語(yǔ)言的應(yīng)用，學(xué)用結(jié)合，以學(xué)促用，促進(jìn)學(xué)生語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用能力的發(fā)展，讓學(xué)生在現(xiàn)有知識(shí)水平下，依然能體會(huì)到英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的樂(lè)趣，而不是死記硬背，簡(jiǎn)單刷題。
7 注重考查綜合語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用能力。
2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題注重對(duì)語(yǔ)言基本技能和基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)的考查。其中，對(duì)語(yǔ)言知識(shí)的考查簡(jiǎn)潔明了，更加語(yǔ)用化，避免了孤立考查知識(shí)點(diǎn)或?qū)χR(shí)的機(jī)械記憶。另外，試題在設(shè)計(jì)上融入了對(duì)情感態(tài)度和文化意識(shí)的考查。作為綜合語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用能力的另外一個(gè)重要維度，學(xué)習(xí)策略在試卷中也有所體現(xiàn)，例如閱讀理解中的各個(gè)篇章要求考生所具備的閱讀策略是完全不同的。有些篇章如閱讀理解A、B篇更加注重具體信息的快速提取和篩選，而有些文章如閱讀理解C、D篇和閱讀還原則偏向考查考生的邏輯推理能力和對(duì)文章的精準(zhǔn)理解能力。因此，考生只有懂得靈活運(yùn)用不同的閱讀策略才能更好地完成任務(wù)。
8 強(qiáng)調(diào)試題的開放性，培養(yǎng)多樣化思維能力。
通過(guò)設(shè)置開放的情景，讓不同水平、不同層次的考生充分發(fā)揮，多角度思考問(wèn)題，鼓勵(lì)考生展現(xiàn)解決問(wèn)題的思維方法和思維過(guò)程，這樣不僅能夠引導(dǎo)學(xué)生學(xué)得輕松愉快，還有利于學(xué)生在實(shí)際情景中理解抽象的概念、規(guī)律，為學(xué)生的思維發(fā)展奠定良好的基礎(chǔ)，這也是新課改的核心理念。與2015年試題相比，2016年中考英語(yǔ)試題在開放性方面有所發(fā)展。例如，“書面表達(dá)”中的兩個(gè)寫作任務(wù)，考生可以結(jié)合自身實(shí)際，給出多樣化語(yǔ)言表達(dá)，多角度思考問(wèn)題，從而為多樣化思維能力的發(fā)展初步奠定基礎(chǔ)。

26. If it_______ tomorrow, we will just stay at home.

30. —Can you tell me_______ yesterday?

判斷語(yǔ)序，賓虛從句需要時(shí)陳述語(yǔ)序，故排除B和D，且標(biāo)志詞為yesterday，所以描述的為一般過(guò)去時(shí)，故選擇C

Sleep is very important. A person who does not sleep dies faster than a person who does not eat. We spend about a third of our lives on sleep. That’s about 121 days a year!
How much sleep do we need?We are all different. A baby needs 16 hours of sleep every day. Children of 6 to 12 years old need an average of 10 to 12 hours of sleep. Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours of sleep. An adult needs an average of 7 to 8 hours a night. There are some people who need only 3 hours of sleep. Others need 10 hours of sleep. After the age of 50, the average sleep time goes down to 6. 5 hours a night. We need less sleep as we get older.
About one in three Americans have a problem with sleep. Many of these people cannot fall asleep. The name of this problem is insomnia. Some people say，“I didn’t sleep all night. ”But that’s not really true. They may sleep lightly and wake up several times. In the morning, they only remember the times they were awake, so they think they were awake all night.
This is not a new problem. Many famous people in history had insomnia. Some of these people had special ideas to make them sleep. Benjamin Franklin had four beds. He moved from one to another to fall asleep. Mark Twain had a different way. He lay on his side across the end of the bed!
45. If you are thirteen years old, you need at least hours of sleep.
A. 16B. 12C. 9D. 7
46. What does the underlined word “insomnia” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. No sleep. B. Good sleep.

47. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A. We will die soon if we don’t sleep well.
B. The older we get, the less sleep we need.
C. We can tell a person’s age from his sleep time.
D. Famous people move from one bed to another to fall asleep.
48. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. Sleep More!B. Go to Sleep!
C. Age and Sleep TimeD. Famous People and Sleep

A traveler today has a wide choice of places to stay. While he used to depend hostly on hotels, he now also has hotels, small or large, from which to choose.
Hotels go far back into history. There may have been small hotels as long ago as 500 B. C. , when adventurous Greek began to go around the world. There were hotels at Pompeii, too. Their destroyed foundations were discovered in the 1800’s, but they tell very little of how people operated these hotels in the old days.
We have information about hotels in the Orient in the thirteenth century. Merchants (商人) and their followers traveled from Egypt and Europe into Asia through trade routes. Places in which these travelers could find houses for the night grew up along the way. At first they were only small pieces of ground near a spring. A little later, the small pieces of ground were enclosed within high walls for the protection of the travelers. Still later, roofs were built over the walls. And then, hotels appeared. In time they began to serve food and drink.
During the early Middle Ages small hotels were extremely important. When civilization was centered in southern Europe and in the East, travelers who lived far from one another met in small hotels. Travel then was a relaxing activity, and people spent days exchanging news and comment. They discussed the customs of their different countries and told one another facts, fables, poems and stories. This word-of-mouth exchange played an important part in the spread of development.
The first inn to be found with a certain name was the Great St. Bernard, built about 962 A. D. It was located in the Alps for the convenience of tied pilgrims (朝圣者) on their way to Rome. It was a big stone structure offering space for at most three hundred people and capable of providing beds for seventy to eighty travelers. The Great St. Bernard was first in another way too. It was the first hotel to offer special service to travelers—in this case, the famous dogs could help travelers who had lost their way.
49. According to the passage, what was discovered in the 1800’s?
A. Hotels in Orient.
B. The adventurous Greek.
C. Foundations of Egypt ancient hotels.
D. Foundations of Pompeii ancient hotels.

The Statue of Liberty stands at the entrance to New York Harbor. It is a gift given by the people of France to the people of the United States over one hundred years ago. It is a symbol of the friendship of the two countries during the American Revolution. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty has become a symbol of freedom and democracy of people everywhere.
To honor the American Declaration of Independence (《獨(dú)立宣言》) for 100 years, Frederic Bartholdi was ordered by the French government to design a sculpture(雕塑) in 1876. The statue was an effort by both America and France. The American people and the French people both agreed upon building the sculpture. And the French people would build the statue and it would be put together here in the United States. However, short of money was a problem on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
In France, public fees, different forms of entertainment, and a lottery (彩票) were among the methods used to raise money. In the United States, money was raised by shows in theaters and art exhibitions. However, the money-raising for the sculpture was going very slowly, so Joseph Pulitzer, the founder of the Pulitzer Prize, began some new pages in his newspaper to help raise more money quickly. Pulitzer used his newspaper to talk about how both the rich class and the middle class had failed to support. This move was finally successful in motivating the people of America to raise money.
The money-raising was complete in August 1885, and the statue was completed in France in July 1884. Because the statue was too big, it was reduced to 350 individual pieces and put into 214 big boxes. The statue arrived in New York Harbor in June of 1885 and was built on Bedloe’s Island. The statue’s framework (框架) was engineered by Gustave Eiffel who later designed the famous tower in Paris, which takes his name. On October 28，1886, in front of thousands of visitors, President Grover told the official name of the statue to the public, which was Liberty Enlightening the World. Since then, millions of visitors have visited her.
Over the years, Americans shortened the name of the statue. They called it the Statue of Liberty, or Miss Liberty. In 1956, the name of Bedloe’s Island was changed to Liberty Island and became part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument.
