名师详解语法易错题(01)

5. Is there a shop around _________ we can buy some toilet articles?

A. that                     B. which                   C. where                  D. what

【分析】此题很容易误选 B,认为 around 是介词,选 which 用以代替前面的名词 shop,在此用作介词 around 的宾语。此分析语法上并不算错,但问题是,照此分析,此句的意思即为:有没有这样一个商店,在它的附近我们可以买到梳妆用品(你喜欢在商店的附近而不在商店里面买东西吗)?其实此题的最佳选项应是 C,其中的 around 是副词(意为“在附近”),而不是介词,其后 where 引导的定语从句修饰其前的地点名词 shop,句意为:附近有没有我们可以买到梳妆用品的商店?

 

6. The purpose of new technologies is to make life easier, _________ it more difficult.

A. not make            B. not to make         C. not making         D. do not make

许多学生一看到题干中的逗号,便断定此题应选C,属现在分词表结果的用法。其实此题应选B,句中的逗号相当于连词 and 或 but,not to make it more difficult 是对逗号前的不定式 to make life easier 的补充说明。全句句意为“新技术的目的是为了使生活变得更容易,不是使生活变得更困难”。两个不定式虽在句中用作表语,但它们是用以说明句子主语 purpose 的内容的。请看类例(www.hxen.net):

(1) The purpose of the scheme is not to help the employers but ____B____ work for young people.

A. provide                 B. to provide             C. providing              D. provided

(2) The purpose of the scheme ____A____ the employers but to provide work for young people.

A. is not to help  B. does not help              C. is not help             D. is not helping

 

7. After _________ seemed like hours he came out with a bitter smile.

A. which                  B. it                         C. what                    D. that

【分析】此题应选 C,其余三项都很容易误选。误选 A,认为介词后应接关系代词 which (注意没有先行词);B 或 D 也不能选择,因为介词后可接 what 引导的宾语从句,但通常不能跟 that 引导的宾语从句或没有引导词的从句。另一方面,引导名词性从句的 that 也不能充当句子成分(句中的 seemed 缺主语)。

 

8. The judge paid no attention to _________ he had just lost his wife.

A. that                     B. which                   C. what                    D. the fact that

【分析】此题容易误选 A 或 B:选A,认为 to 后应接一个 that 引导的宾语从句;选B,认为其后是一个定语从句,介词后应用关系代词 which。其实此题应选 D。注意不能选A的原因是,在通常情况下,介词后不能直接跟 that 从句(极个别介词如except, but 等除外),遇此情况,应在 that 从句前加上 the fact(此时 the fact 用作介词宾语,其后 that 从句用作 the fact 的同位语)。又如:

We all knew nothing about _________ he was a thief.

A. that                      B. which                   C. what                    D. the fact that   (选D)

 

9. “When _________ get married?”  “When _________ get married hasn’t been made public.”

A. they will, will they                               B. will they, they will

C. they will, they will                               D. will they, will they

【分析】此题容易误选 D,认为 when 后应用疑问句词序。其实此题应选 B,第二个 when 是用以引导主语从句的连接副词,其后要用陈述句词序。
