卖身契
1.As to the lost world of Egypt, we know nearly everything ______ toknow.A. what is B. which is C. it is D. there is一定不3262363731会选B,在定语从句中,如果先行词是不定代词,关系代词只能用that,不能用which。选A和C的话,从句已经有主语everything,what和it重复了。选D,不要误以为是there be 句型,在这里there修饰不定代词everything做后置定语,实际上是Know后面接了一个宾语从句everything is to know.关于there的后置定语的类似用法还有:People there are very friendly.那里的人都很友好。2. He himself says he is always punctual in paying his rent, but to my mind_______.A. he is seldom B. seldom is he C. he seldom is D. seldom he is选D虽然seldom是否定意义的词,但是倒装句的条件之一是“含有否定意义的词放在句首,句子要倒装”,这里都不是放在句首的,正常语序就好。3. Scarcely______now without some sort of incident involving the old lady.A. a day passes B. does a day pass C. passes a day D. day passed选B,Scarcely表示“几乎不,简直不”,这次是含有否定意义的词放在句首,真的要倒装了。把相应的助动词提前,谓语动词还原。4. If I see the twin brothers apart I don’t know________.A. who is who B. who is whom C. which is which D. what is what选C,分不清哪个是哪个。有具体选择范围的时候,用which。5. Modern transportation facilities make _____traveling through the world in a few weeks. A.it possible B. possible C.it is possible D.possible of选A ,这里考察的是“make + it + 宾补+真正宾语 ”的句子结构。有时候动词的宾语太长,为了保持句子的平衡,就使用it做形式宾语,把真正的宾语放在后面。类似动词的用法还有find,think 等。例如:He found it impossbile to finish all the work in such short time.6.________, it was believed, this play was a regular theatrical proction established in New York.A. Until up to B. Not before 1732 C. Up until 1732 D. Not until 1732选A,until:从某个时点或者状态一直延续 up to:达到某个时点或者状态如果选择B和D,含有否定意义的词在句首,句子要倒装。这个不是倒装句。C 没有up until这种表达7. There comes a time in every man’s life____.A. then he has to think B. when he has to think C. therefore he has to think D. about which he has to think选BThere comes\is a time when .......这差不多是固定用法,意思是有一段。。。样的时光。when引导的句子修饰time做后置定语。8. Although Margaret Mead had several assistants ring her long investigation of Samoa, the bulk of the research was done by ____ alone.A. herself B. she C. her D. hers 选A by oneself 表示“亲自,独自”,固定搭配,也是考察反身代词的用法吧。希望你能明白1.D 但不是there be 结构!这题很容易错选B,因为这里先行词是不定代词版everything,关系代词只能用权that,不能用which. 2.D 这里不需要用倒装3.B 句中有Scarcely:仅仅,几乎不,表否定要用倒装4.C which is which的意思“哪个是哪个”,通常用于区分两个十分相似的人或事物,一般与动词tell, know等连用。如: These kittens look exactly alike—how can you tell which is which? 这些小猫看上去一模一样,你怎么能分出哪个是哪个? 5.A 考察it 的用法,其用法在语法中很重要,也常考,建议一定要好好掌握6.A until:从某个时点或者状态一直延续 up to:达到某个时点或者状态 7.B 考察定语从句 time是先行词8.A 考察反身代词的用法
