几组不可不防的“ 陷阱题 ”
英语中很多试题是有规律可循的,在平常的练习中应注意归纳总结、举一反三,以达到事半功倍的效果。
一、分析句子结构,避免掉入陷阱
1. ______ is reported in the newspaper, some artistic treasures will be on show at the exhibition on the weekend.
A. It B. As C. That D. What
2. ______ has been proved that a computer is an important aid in classroom teaching.
A. It B. As C. That D. What
3._______ is known to us all is that English is the most widely used language in the world.
A. It B. What C. As D. That
[解析]
1. B。此题考查的是as引导的非限制性定语从句。as在从句中作主语,其引导的句子可放句首,也可放句后。但which引导的非限制性定语从句只能放在句后。试比较:
As is reported in the newspaper, some artistic treasures will be on show at the exhibition on the weekend.
Some artistic treasures will be on show at the exhibition on the weekend,which/as is reported in the newspaper.
2. A。it在句中作形式主语,真正的主语是a computer is an important aid in classroom teaching。
3. B。此题考查what引导主语从句的用法。
二、理解句意,找准时间点
1. It is a long time ______ I lived in that small mountain village with these farmers.
A. when B. that C. before D. since
2. How long do you think it will be ______ housing prices start going up again?
A. when B. that C. before D. since
3. — Did Jack come back early last night?
— Yes. It was not yet eight o’clock ______ he arrived home.
A. when B. that C. before D. until
[解析]
1. D。根据句意“我与这些农民住在那个小山村已经很久了”, 即动作从过去某个时间开始一直持续到现在,可知用since。
2. C。题干为疑问句,可将其还原为陈述句:It will be+时间段 ______ housing prices…, 这样很容易看出本题考查的句式是It will be +时间段 +before…(要过多长时间才……)。再如:
It will be years before we meet again. (很多年后我们才能见面。)
3. A。根据句意“他回来的时候还不到八点”可知用when。注意区分它和强调句的区别:强调句所强调部分必须完整,如:
It was at eight o’clock that he arrived home.
三、读懂题意,找准选项在句中充当的成分
1. We are trying to reach a point ______ both sides will sit down together and talk.
A. where B. that C. when D. which
2. — Do you have anything to say for yourselves?
— Yes, there’s one point ______ we must insist on.
A. why B. where C. how D. that
[解析]
1. A。a point在从句中作地点状语,相当于at this point,both sides will…。定语从句先行词为point、situation、condition和case等表示抽象意义的词时,常用where引导,意为“到了某种地步、在某种境况中”。
2. D。that从句修饰one point, that在从句中作insist on的宾语。
四、such句型必牢记
1. It was not such a good dinner ______ she had promised us.
A. that B. which C. like D. as
2. Pop music is such an important part of society _____ it has even influenced our language.
A. as B. that C. which D. where
3. My English teacher’s humor was ______ make every student burst into laughter.
A. so as to B. such as to C. such that D. so that
[解析]
1. D。由于先行词有such修饰, 且在从句中作promise的宾语,所以用as引导。
2. B。此题考查such…that…引导的结果状语从句。
3. B。因空格后接的不是句子,而是动词make,可排除C和D。such as to do sth. 为固定句式,表示“到……的地步、如此……以至于”。
