(1)—Which of these two ties will you take? —I'll take ______, to give me a change sometimes. A. either B. neither C. all D. both 注意题中所给信息:“two”和”give me a change sometimes” 答案为D. (2)--Tom, you didn’t come to the party last night? --- I ___, but I suddenly remembered I had homework to do. (2007全国卷(II)20题) had to B. didn’t C. was going to D. wouldn’t was/were going to表示“本来打算做某事”。 根据所提供的情景“but I suddenly remembered I had homework to do.”可判断出本来打算去参加聚会, 但想起来有作业要做, 故选C. have to 为‘“不得不”;wouldn’t为“不愿意” 2.把握上下文的时间隐含 有时题干中没明确给出时间,而是隐含在上下文中,考生只有通过对题干所给信息的推断,才能选定正确的时态。如: (1)--- Have you handed in your schoolwork yet? --yes, I have. I guess it ___ now. (2007 辽宁22题) has graded B. is graded C. is being graded D. is grading 根据答句中的时间状语now可判断出要用现在进行时, 表示正在发生的事。 又根据schoolwork与grade的关系可确定用被动语态, 表示作业正在被批改, 所以选C. (2) —How are the team playing ? —They're playing well ,but one of them _______ hurt . A. got B. gets C. are D. were 题干隐含信息有:比赛正在进行,但有一人受伤。故选A。 3.排除思维定势的干扰 (1)My parents have always made me ___ about myself, even when I was twelve. feeling well B. feeling good C. feel well D. feel good (2007江苏35题) 选D.由于我们对I am feeling well today.形成了思维定势, 容易错选C. 这里不表示身体好, 而是表示自我感觉好。 ( 2 ) With everything she needed _______ , Mum left the marketplace . A. to buy B. having bought C. buying D. bought 此题极易误选A或C。陷入思维定势,殊不知she needed为定语从句,后置,修饰everything 考查的是“with+名词/代词+分词”这一结构。故正确答案是D。 4.综合语法知识,注意句子结构 (1) Reality is not the way you wish things to be, nor the way they appear to be,___ the way they actually are. (2007湖南卷21) as B. or C. but D. and 本句为:现实既不是你希望事情会是什么样的, 也不是似乎是什么样的, 而实际上是什么样的。Not…..but…为固定结构。选C故 (2) Who do you think you’d like _____ with you, a boy or a girl? A. to have go B. to have to go C. to have gone D. having to go 在确定答案之前,我们先来看看下面这个句子: I think I’d like to have a boy go with me. 句中的 go 要用原形,这是因为其前有表示使役的动词have。在此句中,假若对名词a boy 提问,便可得出:Who do you think you’d like to have go with you? 对照上面一题,答案很显然是A。 5.注意英汉表达习惯差异,排除母语干扰。 英汉两种语言在表达上存在很大的差异,考生很可能会用汉语的思维方式去认识和解决英语中的问题,掉入命题人设置的陷阱。 【例1】—Were all the toys for the children carried to their new kindergarten? —No, only some of them. (2006北京西城区5月第28题) A. it was B. they were C. there were D. there was 【分析】考生很可能误选C。因为,考生想表达“不,只有一些被运往新幼儿园”,很可能用“There be…”结构表达自己的思想。但是,本句实际采用了强调结构,强调“only some of them”,后面省略了“that were carried to their new kindergarten”。因此,正确答案为A。 【例2】Faced with a bill for $10,000, _______ . (陕西2006第17题) A. John has taken an extra job B. the boss has given John an extra job C. an extra job has been taken D. an extra job has been given to John 【分析】句意要表达的是“面临着10,000元的帐单,John找了一份额外的工作”。每一个选项都有可能成为考生的选择对象。但英语表达中,非谓语动词作状语时,其逻辑主语必须是句子的主语。因此,正确答案为A
