34题为动词短语的辨析，35题考查从属连词，36题为情态动词的考查。其中35小题除了考查语法知识外，还教会学生掌握恰当的学习方法与策略，勤学善学，实现自我不断成长。36小题更注重真实的语境下情态动词的实际运用，能够准确用英语表达自己的态度或意图。

37-39小题都是考查时态。37题为一般将来时，38题为过去进行时，39题为现在完成时，说明时态题仍是中考的重点考查内容，而且都没有明显的时间状语，需要在具体的语境中去判断使用哪种时态，虽然词汇难度不大，但更注重考查学生的语言运用能力，让学生能够在语言学习中发展思维能力，有条理地表达自己的观点，提高语言表达能力，逐步发展逻辑思维。从内容看，38题符合学生应考的真实情境，39题引导学生积极改正错误，反思和评价学习进展，提高学习效率和能力。
