高考英语陷阱题总结归纳-状语从句

高考英语陷阱题总结归纳-状语从句◆典型陷阱题分析◆1. "May I go and play with Dick this afternoon, Mum?" "No, you can't go out _______ your work is being done."A. beforeB. untilC. asD. the moment【陷阱】容易误选B,误认为这是考查not…until…结构。
【分析】最佳答案选 C。
句中的 your work is being done 表明"你正在做作业",选 as 表原因。
2. "I'm going to the post office." "_______ you're there, can you get me some stamps?"A. AsB. WhileC. BecauseD. If【陷阱】容易误选A。
【分析】最佳答案选 B。
尽管 as 和 while 均可用作从属连词引导时间状语从句,表示"当……的时候",但两者有一个重要区别,就是这样用的 as 从句的谓语不能是状态动词。
当然,如果 as 不是表示"当……的时候",其谓语是完全可以用状态动词的。
如:I went to bed early, as I was exhausted. 我很累了,所以很早就上床睡了。
(此句中的 as 表示原因,意为"因为"、"由于")请做以下两题,答案均选 while,不选as:(1) _______ you are at home alone, please don't leave the door open.A. WhileB. AsC. BeforeD. How(2) _______ you are alone with her, tell her that you like her.A. WhileB. AsC. AfterD. How3.

高考英语陷阱题总汇

高考英语陷阱题总汇基础题,人人会做,显不出优势;高难题,人人不会做,拉不开距离;陷阱题,表面看起来很容易,所需知识也不一定很难,但其中隐含机关,预设陷阱,尽管你完全具备做好此类题的知识和能力,但由于你理解角度不对、分析思路不活、做题方法不当、使用技法不巧等,可能自认为捡了个大便宜,而实际上却刚好掉入了命题人为你精心准备的陷阱。
不信你就看看下面几道题:1. She was so angry and spoke so fast that none of us understood _____ he said meant.A. thatB. whatC. that thatD. what what仔细想想看,选A还是选B?请给出你的决定——未作决定之前请不要往后看!你的分析可能是这样的:选项C和D 不太可能是正确答案,因为像这样两个―引导词‖叠用的情况一般不可能。
在A和B两个选项中,选项A肯定不行,因为它引导宾语从句时不能充当句子成分,所以只能选B了。
事实是:如果你选A,肯定错了;如果你选B,那也错了。
此题最佳答案是D,其中第一个what 用作动词meant 的宾语,第二个what 用作动词said 的宾语,即在none of us understood what what he said meant 中,none of us understood 为主句,what what he said meant 为宾语从句,而在此宾语从句中又包括有what he said 这样一个主语从句。
假若去掉句末的meant,则答案就是B了。
分析有道理吗?有点启发吗?你可要客观地评价噢!请再看一题:2. Everyone knows that _______ is dangerous to play with fire, but _______ is difficult is to prevent children from playing with fire.A. it, itB. what, whatC. it, whatD. what, it这次可要想好!请拿定主意,选C还是选D?未作决定之前请不要往后看!你的分析可能是这样的:此题既不选C,也不选D,而是选A。
高考英语典型陷阱题精选精析

高考英语典型陷阱题精选精析1. Just because they make more money than I do, _________ they seem to look down on me.A. soB. andC. butD. 不填【分析】此题正确答案为D,但容易误选A,将汉语的“因为……所以……”直译为because … so …,但是按英语语法,because 为从属连词,用以引导原因状语从句,它表明整个句子为复合句;而 so 在表示“所以”时,它是并列连词,用以连接两个简单句使之成为并列句。
由于在同一句中既用了从属连词 because,又用了并列连词so,使得该句一半像复合句,一半像并列句,从而导致错误。
正确的做法是,任意去掉 because 和 so 中的一个,使之要么成为复合句,要么成为并列句。
2. If I’m mistaken,_________ you are mistaken too.A. soB. andC. orD. 不填空格前 if 引导的是一个条件状语从句,它暗示整个句子为复合句;而so, and, or 为并列连词,无论选哪一个,都表明整个句子为并列句,从而导致前后矛盾,所以A、B、C均不能选择。
此题正确答案选D,you are mistaken too 为主句。
又如:(1) If wishes were horses, _________ beggars would ride.A. andB. soC. orD. 不填(2) When the last prize had been awarded _________everybody cleared off.A. andB. soC. orD. 不填(3) Just before I left London, _________ I sent him a telegram.A. andB. soC. orD. 不填(4) After they had each said a few words, _________ Lloyd George took the floor.A. andB. soC. orD. 不填答案均选D,空格前分别为if, when, before, after 引导的状语从句,空格后为句子主句。

高考英语 复习代词考点典型陷阱题分析
代词考点典型陷阱题分析1. _____ with any common sense can tell the difference between the two.A. WhoB. WhoeverC. AnyoneD. Who ever【陷阱】容易误选B。
【分析】最佳答案为C。
有的同学误选B主要是因为受以下这类句子的影响:Whoever comes will be welcome. 任何人来都欢迎。
Whoever wants the book may have it. 任何人要这书都可拿去。
Whoever gets the job will have a lot of work. 谁要是得到这份工作就有很多事要做。
以上三句中 whoever 引导的均为主语从句,其中的 whoever均可换成 anyone who,但是不能换成 anyone。
以上试题从表面上看,与以上各例很相似,其实它们有本质的不同,即_____ with any common sense 中没有谓语动词,所以我们不能选 whoever。
此题的正确答案为C,anyone 为句子主语,with any common sense 为修饰 anyone 的定语。
现将此题稍作改动如下,答案选B:_______ has any common sense can tell the difference between the two.A. WhoB. WhoeverC. AnyoneD. Who ever2. The dictionary is really useful. Every boy and girl _____ it and they each _____ to buy one.A. like, wantB. likes, wantsC. likes, wantD. like, wants【陷阱】容易误选D。
认为前面一空填复数动词,因为其主语是 boy and girl,为复数;第二空填单数动词,因为其前有 each,表示“每一个”。

【分析】最佳答案是C,around which were high mountains 是一个由“介词+which”引出的非限制性定语从句,而在该从句中,主语是high mountains,around which 是表语,所以句子谓语应用复数were,而不是用单数was.请做以下类例题目(答案均为C):(1)Y esterday we visited a modern hospital, around _______ some fruit shops.A. which isB. it isC. which areD. them are(2)The murder happened in an old building, beside ______ the city police station.A. which areB. it isC. which isD. them are(3)Next month we’ll move to a new building, next to _______ a nice restaurants where we can have Chinese food.A. which areB. it isC. which isD. them are2.
