一些中学英语易混结构分析(二)
7. To get an education , _______________ .
A. one must work hard B. what you need is to work hard
C. working hard is needed
不定式作状语放在句首,动作的执行者应当是句子的主语。换言之,当不定式放在句首时,句子的主语应能做不定式动作的执行者。此题选项中只有A项中的one 能做get 的执行者。One get an education,… ;What you need和working hard 都不能做get 的执行者。
8. Thirty-three people were already dead in a traffic accident ; __________ .
A. twelve being old men
B. twelve of them were old men
C. twelve of whom were old men
D. twelve were old men
此题中的分号(;)很重要,后一部分起进一步说明作用。正确选项为B。如果换成逗号 的话,则选择C,理解为定语从句。
9. Was it during the Second World War ________ he died ?
A. that B. during which time C. in which D. when
It 作代词 表示时间或地点与关系副词when 、where引导的定语从句或强调结构相混。此题应当填A,为强调结构,但有好多学生选择C或D,把句子看成定语从句,其实判断强调结构并不难,把强调结构it is (was)…that ( who )…去掉,如果剩下的部分句子结构完整,说明就是强调结构,如果不完整说明是从句。此句去掉强调结构句子成为during the Second World War he died (变为正常词序 He died during the Second World War ) 句子结构完整,说明此句为强调结构。此句如果把during 一词去掉 ,句意就变了,it was the Second World War .it 作代词,表示时间,意思为:时间是第二次世界大战,横线处应当填 when 或in which 。又如:
It was evening ______ he went to the office .
A. when B. that 此句选择A,如果evening 换成in the evening ,则选择B。
10. Hardly had she seen her father _________ she ran to him .
A. than B. when C. as D. that
此句是倒装句,往往与 that 从句相混,应注意hardly 与 when 连用。
11.---- What made her so angry ?
----- ________ her wallet.
A. He lost B. Losing C. Lost
此题为省略句,应判断省掉的部分是什么,这句话的意思是:丢钱夹使她生气。整句话应当是Losing her wallet made her angry .所以,选择B。但有的学生选择A,句子正确,但属于所问非所答,如果问话人问what happened to her ? 选择 A 正确。
12 She cannot help _____ when she heard the bad news .
A. burst into tears B. bursting into tears C. to burst into tears
help (to) do 与help doing 相混,help doing 常与 cannot 连用,应当从意思上加以区别,help (to)do sth. 帮助做某事;cannot help doing sth 情不自禁做某事,此题选择 B。
13 _____ a long story short , he wanted to marry her and get a lot of money .
A. Make B. To make C. Making
14. She must be looking forward as much to his return as he he himself is to _______ her .
A. see B. have seen C. seeing D. having seen
此题选择C。as…as 结构连接的两部分应该对等,to his return 与to seeing 对等,to 是介词,后跟名词,有好多学生不顾as…as 结构,把后一个to 看成不定式符号, 而选择A。
15. Having a written examination , ___________ .
A. I am forced to study hard B. it’s necessary that I have to study hard
分词短语放在句首作状语,应考虑逗号后主语与分词的关系,是否可以做分词的执行者或承受者,此题A项中I 可以做having 的执行者,所以选择A;而B项中的it 不可能做having 的执行者或承受者。
