15. 能力訓練
(一)單句改錯
1.Wang Hong is impossible to attend the meeting.
簡析:本句應(yīng)改為It is impossible for Wang Hong to attend the meeting。因為impossible不能修飾人,也不用它來作某人的表語,它只能用來修飾物。
2.I won’t come without inviting to the meeting.
簡析:本句應(yīng)改為I won’t come without being invited to the meeting.“invite”為及物動詞,有“invite sb. to +n.”與“invite sb. to do sth.”。此處的“invite”的邏輯賓語是句子的主語“I”,因此,此處的“without”之后該用“being invited to do”。
3.He seemed that he had seen the film several times.
簡析:本句應(yīng)改為It seemed that he had seen the film several times.“seem”表示“似乎”“好像”時,常見句型有:
(1)It seems/seemed that…
(2)Sb. seems/seemed (to be)+adj./n.
(3)Sb. seems/seemed to do sth.
(4)It seems/seemed as if…
4.Almost all the buildings were in ruin.
簡析:本句中的“ruin”應(yīng)改為“ruins”。因為“(be) in ruins”為一固定短語,意為“成為廢墟”。
5.It was foolish for him to waste his money on such a computer.
簡析:應(yīng)把for改為of。因為這里是“對人的評價”,而不是“對事的評價”!皩θ说脑u價”應(yīng)用句型“It is+adj.+of sb. to do sth.”“對事的評價”則是“It is+adj.+for sb. to do sth.”詳解見知識歸納1。
6.Having got a driving license,he tried to drive on real road.
簡析:“tried to drive”應(yīng)改為“tired driving”。因為“try doing sth.”意為“嘗試做某事”,而“try to do sth.”則是“盡力去做某事”。
二。 高考真題
1.(2000年上海高考)The ___________ boy was last seen ___________ near the East Lake.
A. missing; playing B. missing; play C. missed; played D. missed; to play
簡析:選A。該題譯為“那個丟失的小男孩最后一次被看見時正在東湖邊玩耍!薄癿issing”表示“丟失的”,see sb .do sth.表示“看見某人做了某事”,see sb. doing sth.表示“看見某人正在做某事”。據(jù)題意,只能選A。選項B、C、D動詞形式均不對。
2.(NMET 1999)You should make it a rule to leave things ___________ you can find them again.
A. when B. where C. then D. there
簡析:選B。本題考查副詞when和where的使用,也涉及表示時間的then和表示地點的there。題干中to leave things和find them again是關(guān)鍵提示。由此可確定需選用與地點有關(guān)的副詞;又從句子結(jié)構(gòu)判斷,后面分句應(yīng)為地點狀語從句,修飾動詞leave,因而選擇B項。
3.(2000年春季高考)All the preparations for the task ___________,and we’re ready to start.
A. completed B. complete C. had been completed D. have been completed
簡析:選D。此處謂語動詞應(yīng)選被動式,表示“準備工作被完成”,排除A和B。又因下文用現(xiàn)在時“are ready”,上文也應(yīng)著眼在現(xiàn)在,用現(xiàn)在完成時,表示過去動作“完成了準備工作”對現(xiàn)在的影響是“現(xiàn)在已準備出發(fā)”。故選D項。
4.(2000年春季高考)These wild flowers are so special I would do ___________ I can to save them.
A. whatever B. that C. which D. whichever
簡析:選A。全句意為“這些野花如此奇特,我要盡我所能來挽救它們!辟e語從句“whatever I can (do)”中的do被省略了,而whatever作這個do的賓語。不選B。因為that引導賓語從句時本身不作成分。而C、D兩項不合題意。句尾不定式“to save them”作目的狀語。故選A。
5.(NMET 2000)-What about having a drink?
-___________.
A. Good idea B. Help yourself C. Go ahead, please D. Me, too
簡析:選A。這是考查交際用語。“喝一杯怎么樣?”A項是“好主意”表示贊同。B項“你自己動手(夾菜)吃吧!笔钦埶擞貌。C項“請繼續(xù)吧!笔窃试S他人行事。D項是“我也要一杯吧!北硎咀约阂踩绱。故選A項。

(一)單句改錯
1. I prefer doing to talk.
簡析:talk改為talking。因“prefer+n. /doing to+n. /doing”為固定用法。

簡析:去掉the。因every other day(week, month, year…)中,other前不能帶the,習慣表達。

1.Why not to come to our home for the party?
簡析:去掉come前的to。Why not do sth.?是表示建議的常用句型,not后跟動詞原形,也可用Why don’t you do sth.?
2.Swimming is a great fun.
簡析:去掉a。fun是不可數(shù)名詞,通常不與冠詞a或the連用。
3.Computers can be used to doing a lot of things.
簡析:將doing改為do。be used to表示被用來做某事,to是不定式符號,其后接動詞原形。如果它表示“習慣于做某事”時,to則是介詞,后接名詞、代詞、動名詞。
4.She gave me a lot of valuable advices.
簡析:advices改為advice。advice當建議、忠告講時,是不可數(shù)名詞。
5.The title boy didn’t dare crossing the street by himself.
簡析:將crossing改為to cross。dare作行為動詞,后接不定式作賓語。
6.Mr Green’s family are going to London on the holiday.
簡析:on改為for。因“go to somewhere for the (one’s ) holiday”,表示“去某地度假”,固定搭配。
(二)易錯題
1.The motorbike is so nice.I think it costs ___________ ten thousand yuan.
A. in the least B. at most C. no more than D. at least
簡析:答案選D。根據(jù)題意,應(yīng)用at least表示“至少值一萬元”。
2.___________ we do must be in the interests of the people.
A. However B. No matter how C. Whatever D. No matter what
簡析:選C。“No matter…”只能引導讓步狀語從句而whatever引導名詞性從句也可引導讓步狀語從句。
3.His words remind me ___________ we did during the summer vacation?
A. that B. of that C. of what D. what
簡析:選C。remind sb. of sth.意思為“使某人想起某事”。題中缺of的賓語,由what引導的賓語從句作of的賓語。并且what既作賓語從句的引導詞,又作動詞did的賓語。
4.He practised speaking English with the teacher and his classmates ___________ possible.
A. where B. whatever C. whenever D. whichever
簡析:選C。本題意思是“每當可能的時候,他總會與老師及同學們一起練習講英語”。whenever“無論何時”=no matter when,引導讓步狀語從句。本句中的“whenever possible”是whenever it is possible的省略形式。
5.Sometimes grass ___________ paper.
A. is used to making B. used to make C. is used to make D. used for making
簡析:選C。因be used to do sth. 意為“被用于做某事”,本句還可寫為:Sometimes grass is used for making paper。
6. There are _____ five people in my family. They are my grandparents, my parents and I.
A. as many B. more than C. not more than D. no more than
簡析:選D。not more than意為“不足、少于”;not more than意為“僅僅,正好”;more than意為“超過,不僅僅”。
五、高考真題
1.(NMET 2000,6)-What about having a drink?
-___________.
A. Good idea B. Help yourself C. Go ahead, please D. Me, too
簡析:選A。對別人的提議表示贊成,為Good idea或That’s a good idea。
2.(2000春招)John may phone tonight. I don’t want to go out ___________ he phones.
A. as long as B. in order that C. in case D. so that
簡析:選C。題中A為“只要”,B為“為了”,C為“以防”,D為“結(jié)果”。根據(jù)句意應(yīng)選C。
3.(NMET 2000)I don’t think I’ll need any money but I’ll bring some ___________.
A. at last B. in case C. once again D. in time
簡析:選B。A為“最終”,B為“萬一”,C“又一次”,D為“及時”。本題意為“我認為我不會需要錢的,但我還是帶些以防萬一”。
4. (NMET 2001,春招)A new cinema ___________ here. They hope to finish it next month.
A. will be built B. is built C. has been built D. is being built
簡析:選D。從后面的提示看,這項工程還沒有完工,故應(yīng)是正在建設(shè)之中,而且是被動語態(tài)。

6.
(一)單句改錯
1. At the present, we don’t have any trouble in solving the problems.

at present是固定短語,意為“現(xiàn)在、目前”。也可用at the present time 來表示。
2. Too much of the deer in the country have been killed.
簡析:將much改為many。too much后接的是不可數(shù)名詞。too many后接可數(shù)名詞。句中的deer是可數(shù)名詞,其單復數(shù)同形。
3. The sun was disappeared behind the cloud.
簡析:把was去掉。disappear表示“消失,失蹤”,是不及物動詞,不能用于被動語態(tài)。
4. Some day, I saw some foreign visitors in the park.
簡析:把Some改為One。some day和one day都作“有一天”講。但前者是指“將來有一天”,只能用于將來時態(tài)的句子中;后者既可用于“過去的某一天”,也可用于“將來的某一天”。
5. There used to have an old temple in the village.
簡析:把have改為be。used to用于there be結(jié)構(gòu)中,即There used to be…意為“過去有……”。
五、高考真題

2. (NMET 1998)-Can you come on Monday or Tuesday?
-I’m afraid ___________day is possible.
A. either B. neither C. some D. any
簡析:答案為B。
前句提到Monday or Tuesday, 意為在兩者之中選擇,故可排除C、D兩項。后文用I’m afraid…來回答,顯然是否定含義,故選neither,意為兩天都不可能。
3. (2002 北京)All the people ___________ at the party were his supporters.
A. present B. thankful C. interested D. important
簡析:答案為A。
由句意可知是“所有出席宴會的人都是他的支持者”,故只能選present。當“出席,在場”講時,present作定語放在所修飾詞后。
4. (NMET 2000)-Is John coming by train?
-He should, but he___________ not. He likes driving his car.
A. must B. can C. need D. may
簡析:答案為D。must not意為“禁止,不許”;need not意為“不必”;can表推測多用于否定、疑問句中,但can not表“不可能”,與句意不符。只有may not表示“有可能”。
