◇[考題1] Peter is my close friend，who can be______what he promises．
A．rlelied on to do
B．relied to do
C．relied on doing
D．relying to doing
[解析] 解本題的關鍵在判斷出rely的語態及含(to)do的語法功能。從句意可知，he與rely on之間存在動賓關系，所以rely on應用被動式。后半句是表示目的的狀語，to是不定式的符號。另外，B、D兩項中on不可少。[答案]A
2．go up漲價；上漲；上升；升級；增長；(樓房等)蓋起來。修建起來
Everything went up except salaries．
除了薪水以外，其他一切都上漲了。

◇[考題2] Although the prices of TV set are______，he managed to make the manager_____the price of that TV set．
A．going up；bring down B．gone up；go down
C．going up；brought down D．going down；bring up
[解析] 從語境看，前一空表示“上漲”，后一空表示“使……降價”才合題意，而不是相反。go up是個不及物動詞，bring down是及物動詞。[答案]A
3.inform vt.通知；告訴（后接名詞，代詞，of 引起的復合賓語、不定式及從句等）
He will inform where to go .
他將通知我們去哪兒。
He informed them of his arrival .
他告訴他們他到了.
He informed the police that some money was missing.
他向警方報案說有些錢不見了。
He is a well-informed man .

注意 : inform后不可直接用雙賓語。類似用法有：

remind sb．of sth.提醒某人某事
cure sb．of sth．治療好某人某病
◇[考題3] (1) The manager promised to keep me_____of how our
business was going on．
A．to be informed B．on informing
c．informed D．informing (2004年湖北黃岡市交流題)
【解析】 inform如果用主動形式，則用法為inform sb．of sth但本題中“我”與inform之問存在動賓關系，“我”才是被通知的對象，所以inform要使用被動式。從句法功能可知，此處作賓語補足 語，即keep sb．／sth．done。[答案] c
(2)一Keep me informed--tlle latest news．
---OK．
A．by B．at C．for D．of
[解析] informed表示“被通知的”，此處作賓語補足語，是被動形式，因此本題涉及的主動形式為inform sb．of sth．，這是一個固定 搭配。[答案] D

be related to與……有聯系；與……有關
relation n．(=relative)關系；親戚

[考題4] Can you _____what happened in your childhood to your present state of mind ?
A. connect B.keep in touch with
C.relate D.join to
[解析]四個詞組含義有相同之處,但更多的是含義及用法上的各不相同.connect 表示”聯系”,后多用with;keep in touch with 表示”與……聯系”,指的是交流溝通方面的;join to 表示”連接”,且to 為多余.句意表示”把……相聯系起來”

n．目前；現在；禮物
V.贈與；呈遞；提出(論點)

A．present 、B．thankful
C．interested D．important
[解析] 四個形容詞的含義各不相同：“出席的、感激的、感興趣的、重要的”。從句意看，應該表示：“出席的人都是他的支持者”。由此可以確定答案。這一類題不是考查同義詞辨析，而是測試利用語境選詞的能力，一般來講，此類題不太難。[答案]A
(2)Let’s leave things as they are_______，even though we may have a change later on．
A．present B．presently
C．at present D．for the present
[解析] at present表示“現在；目前”；presently表示“不久；過了一會兒”，另外一種用法是相當于at present。但本題的語境表示“就在來說，暫時”，用for the present表示。[答案]D
6. disappoint／bore比使人失望／厭倦
disappointing /boring vt.只使人失望的／厭倦的
disappointed／bored adj．失望的／厭倦的

_____and endless．He felt so_____that he nearly fell asleep.
A．disappointed；boring
B．disappointed：bored
C．disappointing；bored

A．offer B．avoid C．dea1 with D．face with

A．reason B．aim C．cause D.target
[解析]句意：他沒有理由解釋他的行為。本句中能與for搭配使用的有reason、cause、target，但cause表示客觀原因；target目標；只有reason表示“理由”；aim后應與at搭配，而不是for。另外，reason做動詞用時，表示“推論，推理”。[答案]A ，

A．1ogical B．honest C．reasonable D．sincere
[解析] 句意為“講點理吧，你不能指望她一個人單獨做所有這些事。”1ogical符合邏輯的，有邏輯頭腦的；honest“誠實的”和sincere“真誠的”明顯不合邏輯。【答案】c

A．got badly hurt
Bwas lnjured badly
C．got badly wounded
D．was wounded badly
[解析] C、D兩項應該被排除，因為wound多指在戰斗、打斗中受的槍、刀傷，而此題指的是在意外事故(如交通事故)，而且從badly可知受傷很嚴重(hurt不嚴重所以A項被排除)。副詞的位置在解答本題中不起決定性作用。[答案] B
25elect，select與chooSe表“選擇’’的區別
三者均可表示“選擇”，但choose是常用詞，指憑個人的判斷或意愿在所提供的人或物中挑選：

請給媽媽挑幾個好蘋果。
[考題25](1)He is brave，hald-working and kind，so he was selected _______monitor of our class.
A. as a B. to be the C .a D. 不填
[解析] 本題沒有直接考查select的同義詞的區別，只考查了Select 的用法及后面的冠詞問題。select后面可接as或to be , 但因為被當選的是這個群體(班)的惟一職務，所以名詞前不用任何毫詞.[答案]D
(2)一Have you________what you want to eat?
[解析】．本題實際上考查用法。前三個詞中，只有choose后面可以接what從句。 [答案]A
26affair。event，accidentmcident-matter及business表示“事件”的區別affair作“事件”講，復數作“事務”講，是正式用詞。指要做的事或已經發生的事，強調行為與動作及其過程；accident指意外或偶然多指不幸的事故，多有不良后果．business指事務，也指事情，常與affair替用，強調責任；event多指重大歷史事件，也可指日常生活中較重要的事情和運動比賽的項目incident指與某人或某重要事件有關的。獨立的事件，尤指軍事、政治上或有爭議的情況；matter指需要考慮或處理的情況。
◇[考題26] 0n New Year’s Eve，New York city holds an outdoor
______which attracts a crowd of a million or more people．
A. incident B. event C. selected D. choose
[解析] 從左欄看,簡言之,incident 是小事;事件”;event 指大事affair指“日常瑣事”，case指“案例”。舉行戶外活動慶祝新年應該是個重大事件，因此用event表示。又如：
Mind your own business .官自己的事.
He was injured in a road accident .他在一次交通事故中受傷了
The Lugouqiao incident 盧溝橋事件
27．含difficult的詞組小結
have difficuly(in)doing sth．有困難做某事

A. to carry out B.carrying out C.carryied out D.with carrying out
[解析] 分析句子結構在解本題乃至本類題目時作用極大。What作為difficulty的定語，一起作had的賓語，從而構成…he had what difficulty _____the plan 句式．，由此可知它符合句型have some(great,no，little，etc)difficulty(in)doing sth．。[答案]B
28．含once的詞組小結

C．effort D．possibility．
[解析] force表示“力量；權力”，energy表示“能量”；possibility表示“可能性”，均與語境體現出來的“竭盡全力去找失蹤的登山者含義不符。這三個詞均不可與make搭配。make every effort to do sth．為習語，表示“盡一切努力做某事”。[答案] C，極力
30．含attention的詞組小結

catch／calL／attract one's attentm。
吸引某人的注意
turn one's attention to把某人的注意力轉向

A．sight B．1ook
C．view D．scene (北京市宣武區模擬題)
[解析] 本題測試同義詞的辨析：sight指以人文景觀或歷史遺跡為主的可供游覽的地方，另外指眼之所見的場景，強調有人、物的活動在內(符合本題“場景”)；view多指在遠處或高處展現在眼前的自然界 的山水風景；scene指具體的、某種周圍一時的景色，以天然的景色為主；look指外表、人的神色，顯然不合本題意。[答案]A
32．even if的用法及讓步狀語從句引導詞
even if表示“即使”的意思。
Even if it rains cats and dogs，we will go to schoo1．
即使下著傾盆大雨，我也要上學。 引導讓步狀語從句的從屬連詞主要有although，though，even if，even though，as，despite，in spite of，no matter+特殊疑問詞，及wherever，whatever等。
You wiIl succeed in the end even if you failed last time．
即使你上次失敗了，最終你還是會成功的。

◇[考題32](1)--She is young，she knows quite a 1ot things．
A．When B．However C．Although D．Unless
[解析]when引導時間狀語從句、時態和邏輯有誤；however可引導讓步狀語從句，但須與形容詞或副詞連用，意為“多么……”；unless引導條件狀語從句，意思不通，這句話意思應為“盡管她很年輕，知道的事卻不少。”【答案】 C
(2)______，he doesn't study well．
A．As he is clever B．Clever as he is
C．He is as clever D．As clever he is
[解析]as引導讓步狀語從句，表語置as之前，構成倒裝語序，這是as引導讓步狀語從句的主要特點。這句話意為“盡管他很聰明，卻不好好學習。”[答案] B
(3)Nobody believed him--what he said．
A．even if B．in spite
C．n0 matter D．contrary to
【解析] even if表示即使的意思；in spite后只有加0f才能構成短語“不管，盡管”的意思；contrary是“相反”的意思，均和句意不符。句意為“無論他說什么，沒人能相信他。”[答案] C
33．過去分詞作定語、表語的用法
(1)作定語：單個的過去分詞作定語，絕大部分情況下放在所修飾的名詞前面，過去分詞短語作定語則一定要放在所修飾的名詞后面。
fallen leaves落葉
people trapped in the lift 困在電梯里的人
(2)如果被修飾的詞是由not any／no+thing／body／one所形成的不定代詞或指示代詞those等時，雖然一個單一的分詞作形容詞用，也要放在被修飾詞之后。
1s there anything unsolved?
還有什么問題沒有解決嗎?
(3)過去分詞作定語時與定語從句的關系：及物動詞的過去分詞可改為動詞為被動形式的定語從句。
lost time=time which is lost
(4)過去分詞作表語與被動語態的區別這兩種結構的主要區別是：被動語態表示一個動作，過去分詞作表語表示主語的特點或所處的狀態。請比較下列句子：
Tne dass iS broken．玻璃杯壞了。(狀態)
It was broken by my sister．它是我妹妹打破的。(動作)
◇[考題33](1)tHe Olympic Games，_______ in 776BC, did not include women players until 1912．(全國高考題)
A．first playing B．tO be first played
C．first played D ．t0 be first playing
[解析】 空白處相當于which was first played in 776Bc，即相當于一個非限制性定語從句。不定式作后置定語，在時態上相當于將來時， 不能表示已發生的動作；又因game與play之間存在動賓關系，所以 play要用被動形式。 [答案] c
(2)Cleaning women in big cities usually get_____by the hour． (全國高考題)
A．pay B．paying C．paid D．to pay
[解析] cleaning women與pay之間存在著動賓關系，因此本題應排除表示主動關系的A、B、D三項，從而一下子可以確定答案。get done是一種特殊的系表結構。[答案] C
(3)From his look on his face，the price of meat must have risen．v
A．disappointed B．disappointing
C．satis6ed D．satisfying
[解析] 因為“失望的”表情是由他自己發出來的，所以此處要用過去分詞作定語。[答案]

答案：
1．C 當“視力”講時，sight是個不可數名詞，無復數形式；當 “景象” 講時，強調有人物的活動在里面，有時還可譯成“奇觀”，是個可數名詞，但多用于a+adj．+sight句式。
2．A on earth表示“在世上；究竟”，at a distance表示“在遠 處”，in place表示“在原來的位子上；適當的，合適的”，均不符合語境體現出來的“看得見；在視野之中”。
3．C do harm to為習慣用語，表示“對……有損害”。另一空暗含“傷害(自尊心，感情等)”。
4．D used to be good表示“曾經是個好孩子”，下文的changed that(=so)much表示他改變了許多，這件事使我們十分“不解；迷惑”。
5．C attention與pay之間存在動賓關系，所以pay應用被動式。pay attention to為固定詞組，其中to為介詞。
6．C 句中包含詞組have dimculty in doing st’11．句型。
7．B battle表示“戰斗；打斗”，因此在此中受傷要用wound，表示“受到刀槍傷”。
8．C所缺部分作定語，因為完成式不作定語，所以A項被排除；D項中時態不對；B項表示即將發生的動作，而文中的動作已發生(yeste-ay)
9．B空白處及后面的介詞短語作先行詞ballet(芭蕾舞)的定語，又因ballet與base之間存在動賓關系，所以base要用被動語態。
10．A tomorrow暗示“簽合同”的動作發生在將來，所以要用不定式表示。又因sign與agreement之間存在動賓關系，所以用被動式。
11．D分號在此題中起著最重要的作用，因為有了相當于連詞作用的分號，所以A、B、C均被排除。even so表示“即使是這樣”，so代替前面的情況。
12．c句意表示“反映(他的觀點)”。
13．B表示“某人面臨某事”時，face的主語往往為人；bore(厭煩)與locate(定位)均不合題意。
14．c 句意表示“他從樹上掉下來，并且傷得如此嚴重，以致于被立刻送到醫院里。”injure(口￡．)“傷害”，由and連接的從句主語和謂語之間是被動的關系，應當用被動語態；從句 動作和主句動作是同時發生的，時態上應保持一致。
15．c句意表示“瓊很少在早上做家庭作業，瑪麗也是。”seldon為表示否定意義的副詞。類似的還有scarcely，rarely，hardly，never等。
16．B 句意表示“對外辦公室處理國際事務。”affairs復數形式多指重要或復雜的事務，business用來指與經濟、商業有關的事務，thjngs指一般事情。
17．D all the preparations與complete之間應為被動關系，故排除A、B兩項。依據we're ready to start，故排除C。
18．A在政治活動中當選用elect。
19．C 句意表示“我過去習慣用電煮飯，但現在改用煤氣。”change改換，變化，指事物的變化過程，常用于change A into B／sth．changes from A to B／change to B；exehange“交換，調換”，指兩事物間相互轉換，如exchange A for B／exchange sth．with sth．；switcll‘‘改變、轉變”，指轉變位置、方向、思想、話題、方法、內容等；transforrn“改變；變化”，指事物的形狀、外觀、性質等變化。
20．A句意表示“對付無禮之人的最佳辦法就是置之不理。”ignore多指有意忽略，或故意不理睬；neglect指對自己職責、義務、家庭等沒有給予應有的重視，如neglect one's duty玩忽職守；omit指由于疏忽沒注意而遺漏；everlook(監督檢查時)遺漏，忽略。
二．完形填空：

五、語法：過去分詞作定語、語
1．過去分詞作定語的特征
(1)展示出的時態特征 。
及物動詞的過去分詞含有被動或完成的含義。
What's tlle language spoken in Germany?德國講什么語言?
②不及物動詞的過去分詞表示主動的完成意義。
fallen leaves=leaves that have fallen落葉
a faded rose=a rose that has faded一朵凋謝了的玫瑰
the risen sun=the sun that has risen升起的太陽
(2)位置及擴展成句的特征
①單個的過去分詞作定語放在所修飾詞的前面。
All the broken、windows have been repaired．
所有壞的窗戶都已經修好了。
②過去分詞短語作定語放在所修飾詞的后面。
The bridge built 100 years ago is still in good condition．
這座修建于100年前的橋仍然很堅固。
③過去分詞作定語常可擴展為一個定語從句。 。
That report about the village is the best of its kind ever written(=that has ever been written)．
那篇關于農村的報道是同類中迄今最好的一篇。
(3)構成復合詞的特征：有時通過一個名詞或數詞加名詞的過去分詞可構成生成形象的復合形容詞。
a three-legged desk一張三條腿的桌子
2．過去分詞作表語具有下列特征：
(1)表達動作的完成性，這與被動語態沒有關系，下列動詞常用作表語：come，go，arrive，fall，rise，set，finish，return
Autumn is come．=Autumn has come．
(2)表示主語受外界的情況處于被動的狀態。有時只表示主語所處的狀態。
The playground lay／appoared／1OOked quite deserted(荒蕪的)。
She stood there surprised at tlle bad news．
He sounded frightened．聽他說話的聲音，可知他被嚇壞了。
[例1] (2002年春招)一How are the team playing?
-They're playing well，but one of them--hurt．
A．got B．gets c．are D．were
[解析] 本題考查主謂一致及時態的用法。因主語oneofthem為單數，故 排除c、D兩項；理解句意，結合語境便知：“受傷”是發生在過去，故用一般過去時。選項A，got是連系動詞，作“變得”解，表示狀態的改變，后跟形容詞或過去分詞作表語。題干中，空后hurt是過去分詞作got的表語。又如：You might get burnt and you might drop tlle pan of burning oil．[答案] A
[例2] (2001年全國高考)_____such heavy pollution already，it may now be too late to clean up the river．
A．Having suffered B．suffering C．To suffer D．Suffered
[解析] 本題檢測學生在特定語境中對動詞不定式和幾種分詞結構的判別與使用。通過分析題干句意可知，后面句子的動作發生在前面斌詞suffer行為之后，因此，所設空中應該選用表示“已經完成’：狀態的ing分詞的完成式Having suffered(選項A)。B項為現在分詞的一般形式，用來表示與句中動詞同時進行或存在的情況；C項為不定式形式，表示一種趨勢；以上兩種情況均不合題意，故B、c兩項均應舍去。題干中already也可起重要的提示與限制作用。D項表示被動含義，與句意不符，應排除，但統計數據表明，錯誤選項中恰好該項干擾最大。[答案]A
[例3] The job is____．None of us likes to do it．
A．tired B．tiring C．tire D．to be tired
