高中英语 语法陷阱题800例-时态

(2) “Hey, look where you are going!” “Oh, I’m terribly sorry. _____.”

A. I’m not noticing                                   B. I wasn’t noticing

C. I haven’t noticed                                   D. I don’t notice

答案选B，“我没注意”是对方提醒之前的事，现经对方一提醒，当然注意到了。

(3) “Oh it’s you ! I ________ you.” “I’ve had my hair cut.”

A. didn’t realize                                        B. haven’t realized

C. didn’t recognize                                    D. don’t recognized 

答案选C。“没认出是你”是说此话之前的事，说此话时显然已经认出了对方。

(4) “What’s her new telephone number?” “Oh, I _____.”

A. forget                                                  B. forgot

C. had forgotten                                        D. am forgetting

此题应选A，从语境上看，“忘记”的时间应是现在，即指现在不记得了。

(5) “Since you’ve agreed to go, why aren’t you getting ready?” “But I ______ that you would have me start at once.”

A. don’t realize                                         B. didn’t realize

C. hadn’t realized                                      D. haven’t realized

答案选B。“没意识到”是对方提醒之前的事。

(6) “It’s twelve o’clock, I think I must be off now.” “Oh, really? I ______ it at all.”

A. don’t realize                                         B. haven’t realized

C. didn’t realize                                        D. hadn’t realized

答案选C。“没意识到”是在听到的话之前的事。

5. Mr Smith ______ a book about China last year but I don’t know whether he has finished it.

A. has written                                           B. wrote

C. had written                                           D. was writing

【陷阱】容易误选B或C。

【分析】此题应选D，这是由 but I don’t know whether he has finished it 这一句话的语境决定的，全句意为“史密斯先生去年在写一本书，但我不知道他现在是否写完了”。有的同学可能由于受 last year的影响而误选B。但若选B，则句子前半部分的意思则变为“史密斯先生去年写了一本书”，既然是“写了”，那么这与下文的“但我不知道他现在是否写完了”相矛盾。

6. He has changed a lot. He _______ not what he _______.

A. is, is                                                    B. was, was

C. is, was                                                 D. was, is

【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。

【分析】最佳答案选C，上文说“他”变化很大，即“他”现在不是过去的那个样子了，故第一空填is，第二空填 was（其实第二空也可用 used to be）。请看类例：

“What place is it?” “Haven’t you found out we _____ back where we ______?”

A. were, had been                                     B. have been, are

C. are, were                                              D. are, had been

答案选C，We are back where we were 的意思是“我们（现在）又回到刚才来过的地方”。

7. He is very busy. I don’t know if he _____ or not tomorrow.

A. come                                                   B. comes

C. will come                                             D. is coming

【陷阱】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。

【分析】其实，此题答案应选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“他很忙，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。
