名师详解语法易错题(03)
(1) What the children enjoy _________ to play outside.
A. being B. to be C. is D. are
答案选C,而不选A。what the children enjoy 是主语从句,空格处填的 is 为谓语动词。
(3) What else would you mind _________ money?
A. make B. making C. to make D. made
答案选C,而不选B。动词mind 的宾语是句首的疑问词 what,而不是其后的动词 make;不定式 to make money 用作目的状语。
(3) Nothing that he suggested _________ useful.
A. prove B. proved C. proving D. to prove
答案选B,而不选C。句子主语是 nothing;that he suggested 是修饰主语的定语从句,suggested 的宾语是引导该定语从句的关系代词 that,而不是其后的动词;句子谓语是 proved。全句意为“他建议的情况没有一条是有用的。”
20. I don’t know if he _________ or not tomorrow.
A. come B. comes C. will come D. is coming
【分析】此题容易误选B。认为 if 引导的是条件状语从句,从句谓语要用一般现在时表示将来意义。其实,此题应选C,句中if引导的不是条件状语从句(即if≠如果),而是宾语从句(即if=是否),句意为“我不知道明天他是否会来。”请看以下类似试题:
(1) I don't know if she _________, but if she _________ I will let you know.
A. comes, comes B. will come, will come
C. comes, will come D. will come, comes
答案选 D,第一个 if 引导的是宾语从句,第二个 if 引导的是条件状语从句。
(2) “When _________ he come?” “I don’t know, but when he _________, I’ll tell you.”
A. does, comes B. will, will come
C. does, will come D. will, comes
答案选 D,第一个 when 疑问副词,用于引出一个特殊疑问句;第二个 when是从属连词,用于引导时间状语从句。
(3) “When he _________ is not known yet.” “But when he _________, he will be warmly welcomed.”
A. comes, comes B. will come, will come
C. comes, will come D. will come, comes
答案选 D,第一个 when 引导的是主语从句,第二个 when引导的是时间状语从句。
21. “Oh, how fat he is!” “But I think he is _________ than fat.”
A. short B. shorter C. more short D. shortest
【分析】此题容易误选B,认为 short为单音节形容词,故用-er构成比较级。其实正确答案应是C。要弄清此问题,得先从比较句型的两种不同类型说起:
(1) 异类同质比较:即指两个不同的人或事物(异类)在同一方面(同质)进行比较。如:
He is stronger than me. 他比我强壮。
Our country is more powerful than theirs. 我们的国家比他们的国家更强大。
(2) 同类异质比较:即指同一个人或事物(同类)在两个不同的方面(异质)进行比较(注意译文):
He is more brave than wise. 他有勇无谋。
He’s more short than fat. 与其说他胖,不如说他矮。
She is more lucky than clever. 与其说她聪明,不如说她幸运。
按英语习惯,在进行同类异质比较时,只能用more构成比较级,不能用-er形式,即使是单音节词也是如此。
