【重點難點解析】

1. It's time I went and picked up my little girl from school.

我該去學校接小女兒了。

(1)本句中運用了句型It's time(that)+sb. +動詞+ed/should+動詞原形，意思是“是某人該做某事的時候了”。句型中的動詞過去式并不是表示過去時間的動作，而是表示虛擬語氣。該句型可用It's time for sb. to do sth. 代替。所以上句也可為：It's time for me to go and pick up my little girl from school. e. g.

It's high time we went to work. 我們現在該去上班了。

(2) pick up“接(某人)上車，取(某物)”解。課文中的pick up就有這種意思。

2. Often at night she would hear a long low whistle and the sound of a metallic noise.

她經常在晚上聽到長長的低沉的口哨聲，還有金屬的響聲。

本句中的would do sth. 這一句型，用來表示過去的習慣性動作。e. g.

They would help each other when they were in trouble.

遇到困難時，他們總要互相幫助。

在很多時候，would do sth表示過去的習慣動作，常可跟used to互換。但would常用于書面語，used to多用于口語；would沒有“現在已無此習慣”的含義。used to則表示“過去有此習慣，現在已無此習慣”。would要與表示動作的動詞連用，used to則既接動作動詞，也可接表狀態的動詞。e. g.

①He would go swimming in summer.

＝He used to go swimming in summer.

過去他夏天常游泳。

②She would live in Beijing. (×)

She used to live in Beijing. (√)

她過去常住在北京。

3. I can see it fastened to a nail next to the hole in the wall, but it is not fastened to that wire.

我看到繩子是系在墻上洞口旁邊的釘子上，而不是系在那根鐵絲上。

句中的fastened是過去分詞作賓語補足語。過去分詞的這種用法常用于以下的復合結構中。 see/hear/watch/find. . . +sb. /sth. +過去分詞表示“看見/聽見/發現……某人/某物被……”的意思。e. g.

①I saw the child badly treated by his father.

我看到這孩子受到父親的虐待。

②I never heard the song sung in German.

我從來沒有聽到這首歌用德語唱過。

see/hear/watch/find. . . +sb. /sth. +現在分詞和see/hear/watch/find. . . +sb. /sth. +過去分詞

上面的結構中現在分詞表示動作的進行，而且與其前的賓語的關系是主動關系。而下面的結構中的過去分詞著重動作的完成，表明動作的結果，而且與賓語的關系是被動關系。e. g.

①We saw the boy taken away by an old man.

我們見一位老人把那男孩帶走了。

②We saw an old man taking the boy away.

我們看著那老人把那男孩帶走了。

4. There is no doubt about it.

這是肯定無疑的。

(1) There is no doubt about it. 是表示“肯定”的日常用語，相當于I have no doubt about it, 或I'm sure of it, 表示對某事很有把握，毫不懷疑。e. g.

There is no doubt about his success. 毫無疑問，他一定會成功。

(2)該句型中的介詞短語也可以用that從句代替。e. g.

There is no doubt that you will be warmly welcomed.

你肯定會受到熱烈歡迎。

(3)該句型也可以用肯定句，接從句時用whether來引導。e. g.

There is some doubt whether he will come on time.

他能否按時到達不能肯定。

doubt作動詞表示“懷疑”解。e. g.

①I doubt the truth of the news. 我懷疑那則新聞的真實性。

②I doubt whether/if he will keep his word. 我懷疑他是否會遵守諾言。

③I don't doubt that our team will win. 我隊會獲勝是沒有疑問的。

5. Around his head was a brown snake.

一條棕色的蛇纏住了他的頭。

這是一個倒裝句，把狀語放到句首，同時將主語和謂語顛倒。采用這種句型，是為了敘事的緊湊，還可以達到句子的平衡協調，把較長的主語放在句子的后部，避免頭重腳輕。e. g.

On the floor lay a man killed in the fire.

地板上躺著一個被火燒死的人。

have a seat是“就座，入座，請坐”的意思。短語sit down和take a seat也有這種意思。e. g.

take a seat及sit down既可用于直接引語，也可用于間接引語，但have a seat只用于直接引語。e. g.

典型例題

【基礎題】

★例1 Ifby any chance someone comes to see me，ask them to leave a_______.

A．message B．letter C．sentence D．notice

導析：該題考查了基本名詞“message”所形成的搭配即“have/leave/take/give a message(捎口信或給某人留口信)”。答案：A

★★例2 It_______long before we________the result ofthe experiment.

A．willnot be...willknow B．is...willknow

C．willnotbe...know D．is...know

導析：該題考查的是long before的用法。注意句型It will not be longbefore+動詞的一般現在式，意思為“不久才會……。答案：C

【易錯題】

★★例1 When he was there，he________go to that coffee shop at the corner after work every day.

A．would B．should C．used to D．might

導析：“used to”和“would”一樣都表示過去經常發生的習慣性動作。但二者有區別：would主要表示與過去的另一時間相比，常與表示過去的時間狀語連用。而“used to”主要表示與現在相比，含有“過去如此，現在不再這樣”的意思。答案：A

★★★例2 Who will see to________everything returns to normal before dark?

A．it B．that C．whether D．itthat

導析：該題考查see to后接賓語從句應使用it作形式賓語，意思是“注意使；務必使”，類似的有：enjoy(享受)，hate(恨)，like(喜歡)，love(愛)等詞后。I hate it when you speakto me with your mouth full.答案：D

★★例3 The founding of the People's Republic of China is a great________inhistory.

A．affair B．business C．matter D．event

導析：該題考查詞語辨析。affair指已經發生的或是必須去做的事情，多為泛指。business常指一種任務、責任或是職責要求去做的事情。matter常指應給予注意、考慮或需處理的事情。event多指重大、重要的事情。答案：D

A．carry out B．carrying out

C．carried out D．to carry out

導析：該題重在理順句子結構，句子的主干部分為The managers dis-cussed the plan，其后為that引導的定語從句，that在從句中充當see的賓語，carry out與the plan為被動關系，即see sth.done結構。答案：C

★★例2

--Alice，why didn't you come yesterday?

--I________，but I had an unexpected visitor.

A．had B．would C．was goingto D．did

導析：根據題意“我本來打算來”，但因這位”visitor”出乎意料的來訪而未成，表示過去的愿望未能實現，依據所給答案，只有C項正確。同meant/hadmeanttoto do sth.答案：C

【高考題】

★★★例1(2000年，全國)________the general state ofhis health，it may takehim a while to recover from the operation.

A．Given B．To give C．Giving D．Having given

導析：此題考查分詞用作狀語的用法，句中的主語同give之間為被動關系，所以應該用given，其作用相當于Ifhe is giyen the general state ofhishealth。答案：A

★★★例2(2002年，上海春季)Prices of daily goods________through a computer can be lower than store prices．

A．are bought B．bought

C．been bought D．buying

【閱讀分析點撥】

LONDON-Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year- old computer technician will spend the extra money at the super marker to buy organic food.

“Organic produce is always better, ” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(農藥), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally(本地) grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty. ” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(進口) to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market, ” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.

1. More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because .

A. they are getting richer

B. they can get the food anywhere

C. they consider the food free of pollution

D. they like home-grown fruit

答案：C

提示：第二段第一、二行提到了這種有機食物的好處，主要是沒有施農藥。

2. Which of the following statements is true to the facts about most organic produce sold in Britain?

A. It grows indoors all year round.

B. It is produced outside Britain.

C. It is grown on family farms.

D. It is produced on large farms.

答案：B

提示：對于英國出售的有機食品來說，文中倒數第四行提到，四分之三由國外進口。

3. What is the meaning of “the organic trend” as the words are used in the text ?

A. Growing interest in organic food.

B. Better quality of organic food.

C. Rising market for organic food.

D. Higher prices of organic food.

答案：A

提示：trend“傾向”，表示大家日益增長的興趣。

4. What is the best title for this news story?

A. Organic food-healthy, or just for the wealthy?

B. The making of organic food in Britain.

C. Organic food to import or not?

D. Good qualities of organic food.

答案：A

提示：本文重點談了有機食物的好處--有利于健康，同時也提及它比較貴，A合適。其他選項不妥，文中并非主要談有機食物的制作，也不是進口與否。

Old Hill由于偷盜貴重的珠寶被關進了監獄。圣誕節快到了，牢房里只剩他一個人，他感到很寂寞。突然兩個警察把一個年輕人關進了牢房。他打量那個衣著講究的年輕人，可以判斷他出身一個富有家庭。他問年輕人是為何被關進監獄。年輕人說他的汽車輪胎被酒瓶扎破了。Old Hill認為那也不犯法。最后年輕人拐彎抹角地說，那個酒瓶是在一個躺在街道上的醉漢的大衣里的（意思是他從醉漢身上碾了過去）。

1. 從后面所講的別的囚犯都釋放來看，Old Hill一個人在牢房里，要填alone。2. 從上下文可以得知，Old Hill由于偷盜貴重的珠寶才被關進監獄的。因此，應填valuable。3. Old Hill偷盜了貴重的珠寶，就得在監獄里呆五年多。應當填prison。4. 從監獄的看守買禮物來看，是圣誕節到了。故應填Christmas。5. 另外幾個囚犯被釋放了，牢房里只剩Old Hill一個人，他也就無法和任何人說話了。應填nobody。6. 那些警察在圣誕節以前，忙于給親友買禮物。應當填busy。7. Old Hill感到寂寞，躺在床上也睡不著，要填asleep。8. Old Hill在掙錢養家的時候，自然很勞累。所以，應當填tired。9. 牢房有別的人，因此只要有動靜，Old Hill就會聽到的。應填heard。10. 門開了人才會進來。故應填opened。11. 警察在關進囚犯之后，先鎖了門才能離開。要填locked。12. 那個年輕人自然是穿著好衣服。應填wore。13. 年輕人穿著講究，當然是出身有錢人家庭。要直rich。14. Old Hill不知道那個年輕人為何也被帶到監獄來。故應填brought。15. 年輕人認為他不走運，才出了那件事。應當填luck。16. 汽車輪胎扎破并不是大事故，而是一件很普通的事情。因此，應當填寫ordinary。 17. 一般情況下，汽車輪胎扎上釘子，才會被扎破的。要填nail。18. 年輕人說他從一個酒瓶上駛過去，才把輪胎扎破了。Old Hill 就說他太粗心了。要填careless。19. Old Hill認為，年輕人從灑瓶上駛過去也不犯法，故應填law。20. 從年輕人的回答可以看出，那個醉漢是躺在街道上的。實際上，他的汽車從醉漢身上駛過去了。這也是他被帶到牢房的原因。要填lying。

A. you take, you, advise B. you take, one, advice

C. taking, one, advice D. taking, you, advise

常見問題7: 高二英語 Uint 15 A famous detective

問題：

It’s the third time that Kate has been ill, ____ ?

A. isn‘t it B. hasn’t she

C. isn‘t she D. hasn’t it

解答:

陳述部分是主從復合句，變成附加疑問句時，一般應與主句的主語和謂語一致。that Kate has been ill是定語從句。it‘s是it is的縮寫。故正確答案為A。不過，要提醒同學們注意的是：當陳述部分的主句是I think, I believe, I guess等結構時時，附加疑問句要與后面的從句主謂一致。此時，還要特別注意否定轉移現象。如：I don’t think he is right, is he ?

常見問題8: 高二英語 Uint 15 A famous detective

-What ____ it be ?

- It ____ be a mail box, for it is moving . It ____ be a car .

A. can, can‘t, must B. can, can, must

C. can, mustn’t must D. must, mustn‘t can

解答:

考查情態動詞can, must的用法。must在表示“推測”時，只能用于肯定句中，不能用于否定句中。can表推測時，可用于否定句和疑問句中，故先排除C、D，從for it is moving，可知第二空應填can’t（不可能），否則與第三空會自相矛盾。正確答案為A。

A. had fallen, rode B. had fallen, was riding

C. fell, was riding D. fell, were riding
