近年来,高考英语命题有个新特点,就是有不少高考题是考查某些“难认”副词的用法。这类题与其说是在考查副词的用法,还不如说是考查考生是否“认识”这些副词――因为这些副词都比较“长”(多于8个字母),同时也比较“难”(对许多基础不好的考生来说可能是生词)。事实上,只要考生能认识这些副词,然后分别将其代入句子,意思最通顺的即为最佳答案。请看几道高考题:
1. ― Do you think it's a good idea to make friends with your students?
―,I do. I think it's a great idea. (2009年安徽卷)
A. ReallyB. Obviously
C. Actually D. Generally
2. The questionnaire takesten to fifteen minutes to complete and can be used along with the assessment interview. (2009年湖北卷)
