六.动词:
动词八种时态、语态和几种变化形式
八种时态                        主动语态         被动语态
一般现在时 (经常,反复,爱好,特点,条件,真理)     do; does       am;is;are done
一般过去时 (过去发生的事,不强调现在的结果)   did; -ed        was;were done

过去进行时 (当时正在发生的事)             was;were doing   was;were being done
现在完成时 (过去发生的事,强调现在的结果)   have;has done    have;has been done
过去完成时 (过去完成的事；过去以前发生的事)  had done       had been done
过去将来时 (过去将要发生的事)                would do       would be done
*    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *    *
不定式:    do; not do; to do; not to do           命令式: do; don't do
现在分词:  doing               动名词:  doing              过去分词:  done
例题解析:
(   ) Look. Mary _____ a nice dog. She _____ it just now.
A) has drawn, drew     B) drew, has drawn     C) is drawing, drew    D) is drawing, has drawn
在“Look”、“It’s evening”、“Where is sb. …?”等句子后面，可能要用“现在进行时”，也有可能要用“现在完成时”。反正，要根据具体情况来具体分析，考虑问题一定要从整体情况着眼。本题后半句“just now”意为“刚才”，很明显要用“一般过去时”，因此前句如用“现在进行时”就不妥，造成句意逻辑上的错误。前句用“现在完成时”才对。所以本题答案应该选“A”。
(   ) This kind of fridge _____ very well.
A) sell            B) sells            C) are sold             D) is sold
在英语中，表达某物销路不错，要用表示“特点”的“一般现在时”形式，而不能用“被卖”这种被动语态形式来表示。由于本句主语“this kind of fridge”是单数第三人称，所以本题答案应该选“B”。
(   ) What _____ Mr. Smith? He looks worried so much.
A) happens with         B) happens to             C) happened with       D) happened to
在英语中，“发生”通常可译为“happened”或“took place”，要注意它不能变“被动语态”。本题之意是“史密斯先生发生了什么事？他显得很焦虑。”因此，“发生”不能用表示经常行为的“一般现在时”形式，应该用“一般过去时”的“happened to sb.”固定词组来表达。所以本题答案应该选“D”。
(   ) Mary: Shall I tell Michael about the news?
Jack: No, you __________. He’s already known it.
A) can’t                    B)       mustn’t           C) needn’t            D) don’t
本题是考核情态动词句型的正确回答。在“Must I do …?”、“Shall I do …?”、“Would you like me to do …?”问句后面都可以用“No, you needn’t.”(不必要)来回答。本题根据后句的句意应该选此回答为妥。所以答案应该选“C”。在“May I …?”问句后面，通常有以下几种否定回答：1. No, you mustn’t. 2.No, you may not. 3. Sorry, you can’t. 4.I’m afraid you can’t. 5. No, you can’t.
(   ) _____ clothes are usually _____ near a fire in winter.
A) Washed, hung        B) Washed, hanged     C) Washing, hung       D) Washing, hanged
“washed”意为“被洗过的”，可以修饰“衣服”；“washing”意为“正在洗的”，它该修饰人、不该修饰“衣服”。后句意为“被挂在火炉旁”，该用过去分词“hung”才对。“hanged”也是“hang”的过去分词，但是它的意思是“被绞死”。所以本题答案应该选“A”。
(   ) The book _____ by me. I _____ it to a friend of mine.
A) is written, sent                                       B) is written, have sent
C) was written, sent                                     D) was written, have sent
“书是被某人写的”、“书是在某地方被写的”都是表示发生在以前的动作，该用一般过去时被动语态。如过说“书是被用英语写的”，那就是指书的特点了，就该用一般现在时被动语态了。后半句意为“我把它寄给朋友了”是强调现在书不在我这里。不是强调过去寄的，不该用一般过去时，而该用现在完成时。这种类型的时态，学生最容易错，千万要注意。英语中有许多动作是以前发生的、但没有时间状语的句子都用“现在完成时”表达。所以本题答案应该选“D”。
(   ) Mr. Jackson _____ the city quite well since he _____ in the city for a couple of years.
A) knows, was            B) has known, was      C) knows, has been     D) has known, has been
本句中的“since”不是“自从”之意，因此，前半句与后半句用“现在完成时”和“一般现在时”的形式做是错误的。本句中的“since”意为“由于”，与“as”近义。根据句意，“熟悉城市”是表示杰克逊先生的“特点”，要用“一般现在时”表达；“他来到这个城市有两、三年了”是表示到现在为止的结果情况，要用“现在完成时”表达。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) Could you tell me _____?
A) how to do it        B) why do it            C) how to do           D) what to do it
由于“do”通常用作及物动词，因此要注意它有否宾语。要避免“C”的没有宾语和“D”的重叠宾语的错误。“B”是不定式遗漏了“to”，所以本题答案应该选“A”。关于“do”的这种特点很重要，为了熟记它，可以背一句口诀：“how to do it, what to do”。
(   ) English is his favourite subject. He can _____ it very fluently.
A) say                       B) talk                       C) speak                    D) tell
由于后句“it”指的是“English”，因此要用动词“speak”才对。所以本题答案应该选“C”。“talk”是不及物动词，后面不跟宾语。“speak”既可作不及物动词用，也可作及物动词，宾语只能是语言。“tell”的宾语有限；有“a story”、“the difference”、“the truth”、“a lie”、“the time”等。“say”可跟的宾语最多，不再一一例举。由此句我们得到启示；即我们在做习题时不要被单词的表面现象所迷惑，一定要看清楚它的内涵，即注意到它的真正含义是什么。再举两个例子来说明注意内涵的重要性：例1. A recorder is used to learn English in our class. 例2. His spoken English is poor. He only speaks a word of it.
(   ) Mr. Black is the manager of this company. He _____ this company.
A) takes charge of       B) is responsible to     C) is in the charge of  D) has the duty from
在英语中，“他负责这家公司”有多种说法，如：1. He is in charge of this company. 2. His job is to be in charge of this company. 3. This company is in the charge of him. 4. He is responsible for this company. 5. He has the duty of this company. 6. He takes charge of this company. 在这里要注意动词与介词的搭配关系，不要记错了。本题答案应该选“A”。
(   )10. Please _____ the city map before you go sightseeing.
A) look at                  B) have a look            C) watch                   D) read
在英语中，“看”在不同场合有不同的译法。“look at”意为“粗略地看”；“have a look”意为“看一下”，其后不能跟宾语；“watch”意为“注视、仔细地看”，虽然可以跟“地图”搭配，但是，它只是表示一种“看”的状态，没有“查看路线”之意。“看书”、“看地图”都要用动词“read”，意为“阅读”、“查看”。所以本题答案应该选“D”。

七.形容词和副词:
英语中，形容词和副词有级的变化。在两个范围内，应该用比较级，它的修饰词有这样几个：much, far, a lot(得多); a little(一点); even(甚至于还要); still(更加)。在三个以上范围内，应该用最高级，它常伴随的词语有这样几个：in﹢sp.(表达地点范围)；of、among﹢数词、代词或复数名词(表达个数范围)；… that I ever seen(表达整体范围)。但是有不少单词仍要求用原级，它们是：very …；so …；quite …；too …；… enough；as … as等；此外在感叹句中也应该用原级。
在连系动词后，通常要用形容词作表语，不能用副词。英语中的连系动词分三大类：1.be动词 2.意为“变”的动词，如：turn green；change fatter；get warmer；become smaller等 3.感官动词，如：look worried；sound true；taste delicious；smell terrible；feel hot。此外，还有个别行为动词也可作连系动词用，如：grow taller(长高)；go hungry(挨饿)……等。不过还应该注意到，有些副词是可以修饰be动词的，如：possibly；probably；still；nearly；indeed …等。
例题解析:
(   ) The knife is _____ enough for you to cut the meat.
A) blunt                     B) cheap                    C) sharp                    D) fast
本题意为“刀够快，你可以切肉”。本句中的“快”意为“锋利”，该用“sharp”。“blunt”意为“钝”，是“sharp”的反义词；“cheap”意为“便宜”，用在这里不妥；“fast”也译作“快”，但是，它所表示的是“速度”的程度。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   )16. Grandmother wakes up early. She _____ gets up late, does she?
A) few                       B) little                     C) seldom                  D) usually
应该用副词来修饰行为动词“get up”。“few”与“little”是形容词，都不能用在句子中。副词“usually”虽可用于修饰“get up”，但是，它的反意疑问句该用“doesn’t she”来反问。“seldom”与“not”、“no”、“never”、“nothing”、“nobody”、“none”、“little”、“few”、“hardly”、“scarcely”、“rarely”相仿，在语法上有否定的特点；即它们在位的句子在语法上都属于否定句，因此，它的反意疑问句该用“does she”来反问。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) If you want to learn a language well, you must use it as _____ as possible.
A) hard                      B) long                      C) often                    D)soon
本句的关键词是“use”(使用)，与“hard”(努力)不宜搭配。“as long as possible”意为“尽可能长久”，“as soon as possible”意为“尽快”，都不宜与“使用英语”搭配；与“学好语言”之意不符。只有“as often as possible”(尽可能经常)与“使用英语”搭配才贴切。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) This is really a large amount of money. But it is _____ than we need.
A) much fewer        B) less much              C) far more               D) far less
“but”是表示“意思转折”的连词，因此，这里不能说“多得多”，要说“少得多”。“多”(many, much)的比较级都是“more”；但是“少”(few, little)的比较级有可数(fewer)与不可数(less)之分，平时学生往往会忽略“fewer”的用法。本句的意思是“这确实是一大笔钱，但是要比我们所需要的数量少得多。”这里指的是数量，而在英语中数量的表达是属于不可数的。所以本题答案应该选“D”。
(   ) Glad you’re much better now. But you have to stay in bed for _____ two weeks.
A) other                 B) more                     C) again                    D) another
“再卧床两星期”可译为“stay in bed for another two weeks”或“stay in bed for two more weeks”，所以本题答案应该选“D”。要特别注意第二种说法中“more”的位置；它要放在数词的后面、名词的前面。
(   ) It was said that he was _____ at the meeting yesterday afternoon.
A) attended                B) joined                  C) present                  D) absent
在英语中，“出席会议”可译为“attend the meeting”或“be present at the meeting”；“缺席会议”可译为“be absent from the meeting”。“join”意为“加入”，后面可以跟表示人群或组织的名词作宾语，它不能用“会议”作宾语。所以本题答案应该选“C”。“present”除了有形容词“出席的”意思外，还有名词“礼物”(gift) 和“目前”的意思，如：at the present(当前；即nowadays)。
(   ) Look. The _____ baby hasn’t woken up yet.
A) sleeping                B) sleepy                C) asleep                   D) slept
“sleepy”意为“睡眼惺忪的”，没有“睡着”之意。“slept”(睡着)是“sleep”的过去式或过去分词，它不能用作“baby”的定语。“asleep”(睡着的)在英语中只能用作表语，即后面不能跟名词，如：fall asleep。“sleeping”(睡着的)在英语中可作定语、表语，还可以作为动名词用作主语、宾语或作为现在分词用在分词短语中。本题意为“你看，那个睡着的婴儿还没醒来”，只能用“sleeping”来修饰名词“baby”，所以答案应该选“A”。
(   ) A child may feel _____ if he has no sister or brother in his family.
A) lone                      B) lonely                   C) alone                    D) along
“lone”(孤单的)表示状态，通常用作定语；“alone”(孤单的)也表示状态，通常用作表语，它还可以用作副词，意为“单独”（by oneself; without anyone’s help）；“lonely”(孤单的) 表示心情，通常与“feel”连用；“along”作介词有“沿着”之意，作副词时可替换“on”。本句之意是“如果在家里没有弟妹，孩子会感到孤单”，所以答案应该选“B”。

八.宾语从句:
整个句子是一个动词或一个介词的宾语，这样的句子就叫做宾语从句。宾语从句是整个复合句的一部分，因此它的变化必然会受到前面主句的影响。在一般情况下，主句的时态如果是一般过去时，宾语从句的时态也必须作相应的调整，即由“一般现在时”变为“一般过去时”、 由“现在进行时”变为“过去进行时”、 由“现在完成时”变为“过去完成时”、 由“一般将来时”变为“过去将来时”。此外，还要根据句意，对其他各种词语作相应的调整，如：you → he；ago → before；next week → the next week，… 等。
但是，也有例外；即带有真理性质的“一般现在时”不变。“真理”通常有以下几种表达形式：1.宇宙、自然界的规律活动 2.类似于光速比音速快的固定法则 3.没有时间概念的词义或句意，如：He asked me what this word means.
“疑问句”作宾语从句时，要注意把词序作必要的调整，即要象肯定句和否定句那样，先写主语、后写谓语动词。因此，在宾语从句中不该有表示倒叙形式的助动词“do”、“does”、“did”。
例题解析:
(   ) Please tell me _____ this afternoon.
A) that it rains           B) that it will rain       C) if it rains               D) if it will rain
前句“Please tell me”带有疑问色彩，因此关联词要用疑问代词或疑问副词，或用也带有疑问色彩的从属连词“if”(是否)，不能选不带疑问色彩的从属连词“that”。再根据“this afternoon”(今天下午)之意，选表示经常下雨的“it rains”词语是不妥的。所以本题答案应该选“D”。
(   ) I don’t think you will pass the history examination, _____?
A) do I                      B) don’t I                  C) will you                D) won’t you
这是一句特殊的反意疑问句。因为按照语法说成“do I”是毫无意义和违背常情的，因此该句要根据从句中的动词来进行反问才合乎逻辑。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) We haven’t discussed _____ we should do like that.
A) about if                 B) about how             C) whether                D) if
“discuss”是及物动词，与动词“serve”相仿，后面要直接跟宾语。“讨论关于……”是汉语中的习惯说法，学生往往会错误地选用“about”回答。因此，我们在学英语时，要特别注意汉语思路的干扰。“whether”、“if”都有“是否”之意，一般情况下可以通用。但是，在以下几种情况下都应该用“whether”：1.在句首作主语从句时。2. 与“… or not”连用成词组时。3.作介词后的宾语从句时。 4. 在“discuss”后作宾语从句时。 5. 跟不定式“to do…”时。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) Could you tell me _____?
A) what was the matter with him                  B) what the matter was with him
C) what’s the matter with him                      D) what the matter is with him
这是句主谓语不需要调整的特殊的“宾语从句”，因此，只要注意时态的变化就可以了。由于“Could you …?”句型与“Would you …?”句型相仿，它是口语中表示客套的一种虚拟语气，不表达“过去时”，因此，后面从句中的动词不需要作调整，整个从句跟原来的疑问句的说法完全相同。所以本题答案应该选“C”。在英语中，这种特殊的“宾语从句”为数不多，再记一句“Which is the way to …?”与它相仿即可。

(   ) 7. As a matter of fact, I really didn’t know ____.
A) that he meant.     B) what he meant    C) that did he mean   D) what did he mean
九.并列连词:
并列连词用于两个并列的简单句中。表示“承上启下”概念的有“and”(并且)、“so”(所以)……等。表示“两者取一”概念的有“or”(或者)、“otherwise”(否则)……等。表示“彼此矛盾”概念的有“but”(但是)、“while”(而)……等。
例题解析:
(   ) It’s said Yang Liwei will come here tonight, _____ I’m not sure.
A) and                       B) however                C) but                       D) so
后半句“I’m not sure”(我不信)与前句的句意有转折的意思，应该用表示具有转折意思的并列连词“but”才对。“and”是具有“承上启下”意思的并列连词；“so”是具有因果关系的并列连词。“however”(然而)也有转折意思，但是它是副词，用时要用逗号“，”撇开。
(   ) The boy is too short to reach _____ the book _____ the magazine on the shelf.
A) both, and              B) either, or               C) neither, nor           D) not, but
“both … and”通常用于表示肯定意思的句型，“not … but”意为“不是……而是”，用在这里都不妥。该句中句型“too … to”(太……而不能)本身带有否定含义，因而不能再选带有否定意思的“neither … nor”(既不……也不)了。所以本题答案应该选“B”，意为“男孩太矮，他既拿不到书架上的书，也拿不到书架上的杂志”。
(   ) _____ Tom _____ Mary is busy. You’d better play with others.
A) Both, and              B) Neither, nor           C) Either, or              D) Not only, but also
根据后句“You’d better play with others”(你最好跟别人玩)的意思，前句应该说两人都忙着。因此，该句不能选“Neither … nor”(表示两人都不忙)或“Either … or”(表示有一人忙)。由于该句中动词用的是单三形式“is”，因此不能选要求动词用复数形式的句型“both … and”。 所以本题答案应该选“D”。 句型“Not only … but also”与句型“Either … or”和“Neither … nor”相仿；要求动词跟后面一个人称变化。
(   ) Nobody else _____ I likes to watch it.
A) and                       B) or                         C) but                       D) nor
该句用的是“not … but”句型，所以本题答案应该选“C”。要注意句中的动词是根据前面人称“Nobody”变化的。此外，“together with”和“as well as”句型中的动词也是根据前面人称变化的。

(   ) 7.         she is over sixty, she is still learning computer skills.
A) Since            B) If               C) Although        D) Unless
十.关联词:
关联词用于主从复合句中。关联词有：从属连词“that”、“if”、“whether”、“although”；疑问代词“who”、“what”、“which”；疑问副词“when”、“why”……等。
例题解析:
(   ) I will like everything _____ you are willing to buy for me.
A) that                       B) what                     C) if                         D) whether
“if”(假如、是否)和“whether”(是否)都不宜用在该句。该句的主句已有一个宾语“everything”，而从句却少了个宾语，要用关联词“that”才对。只有当主、从句都缺少宾语时，才该用关联词“what”。因此“what”意为“something that”、“all that”、“the word that”……等。所以本题答案应该选“A”。
(   ) Although they are young, _____ they know how to serve _____ the customers.
A) but, /                    B) but, for                 C) / , /                       D) / , for
在英语中,“although”、“but”分别有“虽然……但是”的意思，在一句中不能重叠使用。与此相仿，“because”、“so”也分别有“因为……所以”之意，在一句中也不能重叠使用。后半句的“为那些顾客服务”不能加介词“for”；因为“serve”(服务于) 是及物动词，它应该直接跟宾语“the customers”(那些顾客)。所以本题答案应该选“C”。
(   ) I wonder _____ he will come before 9:00 p.m..
A) what                     B) that                       C) when                    D) if
主句“I wonder”(我想知道)带有疑问色彩，因此，答案不能选不带疑问意思的关联词“that”。又由于后半句宾语从句对时间已有所交代，而且用的“come”是不及物动词，不宜跟宾语，因此，该句选“if”(是否)才对。所以本题答案应该选“D”。
(   ) It’s _____ that I’d like to buy it.
A) so nice doll            B) such nice doll        C) such nice a doll      D) so nice a doll
“so … that”和“such .. that”句型是由“that”作关联词的结果状语从句。“so”(那样地)是副词，用于修饰后面的副词或形容词；“such”(那样的)是形容词，用于修饰后面的名词。因此，“那样漂亮的一个洋娃娃”可译为“such a nice doll”或“so nice a doll”。 所以本题答案应该选“D”。同理，感叹句“他是多聪明的孩子啊！”可译为“What a clever child he is!”、“How clever the child is!”、“How clever a child he is!”。
