  Exercise Twenty-seven

  1. If only _______________(你没把我的话告诉杰吉),everything would have been all right.
  2. They had no sooner gone to the plant _______________(就开始干活了).
  3. Don't trust such men ________________(当面过分称赞你).
  4. I've got many novels,_______________(其中一些很有趣).
  5. ________________(那两个国家中断了外交关系)on the eve of World War.
  答案解析:    
  1. You hadn't told Jackie what I said
  解析:本题考查虚拟语气,if only是if的强调式,用来表达强烈的愿望或遗憾,意思为:"但愿......,要是......就好了",谓语动词多用虚拟语气。本句意为:"要是你没把我的话告诉杰吉就好了,那样就不会出什么问题了"。If only也可以用来引导感叹句,如:If only she would stop singing!(但愿她不要再唱了!)
  2. than they began to work
  解析:在前面的练习中已经考查过no sooner...than,hardly/scarcely...when的用法。这里想再强调的是,no sooner...than只能用于过去时,一般不能和主句是现在时或将来时的句子连用,但hardly/scarcely...when有时可以用于现在时,表示一种经常性的行为,如:The day has scarcely broken when he gets up to study.(天刚破晓,他就起床学习。)
  3. as overpraise you to your face
  解析:本题考查as用作关系代词或关系副词引导出限制性定语从句的结构。这种结构在从句中通常左主语、宾语、表语和状语。as在这里作主语,指人。这句话相当于Don't trust those men who overpraise you to your face。as用作关系代词或关系副词除了可以用在such...as的结构中,还可以用在the same...as的结构中。如:We drove out of the town by the same road as we had entered by.(我们沿着我们进城的同一条路开车出城。)as在这个句子中作关系副词。
  4. some of which are very interesting
  解析:本题考查of which在句中引导非限制性定语从句,当of which,of whom结构和some,all,both等代词或数词连用时,可以有不同的语序。所以答案也可以这样:of which some are very interesting。
  5. The two countries broke off diplomatic relationship
  解析:on the eve of表示"在......前夕",on用来指代某一特定的时间。Break off是指to cease to be friendly,"断绝(关系),不再友好,绝交"。
