六、强调句
(2005全国卷Ⅰ30)It wasn’t until nearly a month later ________ I received the manager’s reply.
A.since B.when C.as D.that
(2004湖北卷24)It was ___________ back home after the experiment.
A.not until midnight did he go
B.until midnight that he didn’t go
C.not until mid night that he went
D.until midnight when he didn’t go
答案解析:强调句的结构是it is(was)+被强调部分+that从句。 that不能被省略。
备考点拨:若强调的是人,其后的 that也可以换成who。若强调的是物,则只能用 that。对于强调句型的判断,主要运用还原法对句子进行检验即可,把it be 和that省略,把被强调的部分还原,如果句子完整,且句意正确,则为强调句型。否则,则是其他的句型。
七、it的特殊句型2
(2005 安徽卷 29)That was really a splendid evening.It’s years________ I enjoyed myself so much.
A.when B.that C.before D.since
(1993MET22)—What was the party like?
—Wonderful.It’s years_________ I enjoyed myself s omuch.
A.after B.before C.when D.since
(2005北京春招23)It is almost five years____ we saw each other last time.
A.before B.since C.after D.when
答案解析:考查Itis+时间段+since的句型。
备考点拨:(1)从过去的一个时间点延续至说话时的时间,通常主句使用现在完成时或一般现在时,而从句使用一般过去时。例如:
It has been three weeks since he arrived here.他到这儿已经有三周了。
(2)当从句的动词是延续性动词时,表示自从动作的结束以来有多长时间。例如:
It is two years since he lived in London.自从他住在伦敦已经有两年了。
八、it的特殊用法
(2005全国卷Ⅲ3)The doctor advised Vera strongly that she should take a holiday,but___ didn’t help.
A.it B.she C.which D.he
(1993MET27)Tom’s mother kept telling him that he should work harder,but ____ didn’t help.
A.he B.which C.she D.it
答案解析:itdidn’tdoesn’thelp的意思是不起作用。
备考点拨:注意类似结构 itdidn’tdoesn’twork的意思是出了毛病,故障。
九、情态动词maymight
(2005安徽卷 26)Helen _______go on thetrip with us,but she is n’t quite sure yet.
A.shall B.must C.may D.can
(2004湖北卷26)—Excuse me.Is this the right way to the Summer Palace?
—Sorry,I am not sure.But it be.
A.might B.will C.must D.can
答案解析:对某事的看法把握不大时,常用 may或might。
备考点拨:解这类题的关键在于寻找有没有像“I’m notsure”之类的语境暗示标志。
十、情态动词结构:can not...too
(2005江西卷 34)—Must Iturn off the gas after cooking?
—Of course .You can never be_______ careful with that.
A.enough B.too C.so D.very
(2003北京春招 30)—I was riding along the street and all of a sudden,a car cut in and knocked me down.
—You can never be careful inthestreet.
A.much B.very C.so D.too
答案解析:can/could not...too是一个固定搭配,
表示“无论怎样也不过分”;如果enough放在careful后面也是正确的。
备考点拨:can/couldnot...too表示“无论怎样也不过分”。例如:
You can never be too careful in performing an experiment.做实验越仔细越好。类似的结构还有 can/could not...enough意为“无论怎么都不够”,表示强烈的肯定。例如:I can not thank you enough.我对你感激不尽。
十一、考查形容词词序
(2005北京卷23)This_______ girl is Linda’s cousin.
A.pretty little Spanish B.Spanish little pretty
C.Spanish pretty little D.little pretty Spanish
(2004湖南卷32) The house smells as if it hasn’t been lived in for years.
A.little white wooden B.little wooden white
C.white wooden little D.wooden white little
答案解析:和被修饰词关系越密切的词越靠近被修饰词。
备考点拨:可记住解题技巧“限定序基性状,大小长短高低,新旧颜色国籍,材料中心词”口诀。如后题:little“小”,white“颜色”,wooden“材料”,可判定答案选A。
有比较才能有鉴别,希望考生在备战2006年高考中做到有的放矢,收到事半功倍的效果。 |
