语法: prep做了35道(到140),做到后来有点晕,错了11道,我果然那么弱么。。。猛然发现有两个test。。。30+160的180题,计划得调整了囧。。。 1)完全没看出考点的一题,不记得介词短语作表语提到句首,整个句子要使用倒装结构。考的是主谓一致。 On Earth, among the surest indications of sunspot cycles are believed to be the rate that trees grow, as seen in the rings visible in the cross sections of their trunks.
(A) On Earth, among the surest indications of sunspot cycles are believed to be the rate that trees grow (B) On Earth, among the surest indications of sunspot cycles are, it is believed, the rate of tree growth (C) On Earth, the rate at which trees grow is believed to be among the surest indications of sunspot cycles (D) Among the surest indications on Earth of sunspot cycles, believed to be the tree growth rate (E) Among the surest indications on Earth of sunspot cycles is believed to be the rate at which trees grow 2)同位结构中名词的数可以和其修饰对象的数不一致 3)likelihood后接that从句与likelihood of doing sth 4)even as是“正当,恰好在…时候”,有at the same time的意思 5)A study on couples' retirement transitions found that women who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers reported high marital satisfaction, more than when retiring completely.
(A) more than when retiring (B) more than if they were to retire (C) more so than those who retired (so指代satisfaction)看起来感觉怪怪的 (D) which was more so than those retiring (E) which was more than if they had retired 6)they/their 在句子中必须有明确的指代对象,即句中出现过的复数名词,而不能暗指“大众群体” 7)GMAC 很喜欢独立主格结构作为正确答案 8)It was only after Katharine Graham became publisher of The Washington Post in 1963 that it moved into the first rank of American newspapers, and it was under her command that the paper won highpraise for its unrelenting reporting of the Watergate scandal. 强调结构中的 it 不作句子结构中的任何成分,无所指代,故认为不与后面有所指的 it 冲突。但形式主语(也叫先行主语)不一样,形式主语 it 指代了句子的真正主语(真正的主语在句子后部),因为有所指,所以句子中如果再出现其它有所指的 it,就冲突了 9)one of every eight workers与原句要表达的one out of every eight workers不同,前者是“八人中的一人”,而后者是“每八人中就 有一人” 10)with… having been…的表达方式不清楚 11)比较的常用结构 as be the case (with)…,是 as the case be 的倒装形式,其常见的错误 用法包括:as it be;than be the case;as in/with the case of; 12)有些动词(表示状态或感觉的词,或者表示极短暂的动作)一般不用现在进行时,比如:declare, recognize 等,continue 是表示状态的动词,不用现在进行时态 declare, recognize 等,finish 是表示极短暂动作的动词,不用现在进行时态;表达并列意思的谓语最好用一致的时态,除非有特别的时间标志 13)习惯用语-介词 under,表示“协议、法律或制度”的名词常与介词 under 连用,under 在这种情况下的意思是 according to“根据,按照” 14)SVO,some/%/数字[百分比结构] + of which VO(which 后接不完整句子,百分比结构+which 作名词性成分,which 指代前句宾语)。 注意:看到 prep. + which 的选项,指 prep. + which 指代的名词性成分放在从句末理解,看句意是否流畅。 15)现在分词结构在句尾可作定语修饰紧临的名词,也可作状语修饰整个句子,所以在这种情况下需要特别注意,通常优先作定语修饰名词,如果不符合逻辑,则是作状语修饰句子,如果二者都能理解符合逻辑,则说明该分词结构有修饰歧义 16)当出现两个选项一个有代词,一个没有代词,需要比较代词是否有指代错误或重复 17)allow sb to do sth 18)so..that..,常见的错误选项是将 enough 与 that 搭配 19)may 与 likely 所表达的都有“可能的”含义,不能同时使用 20)over + 数字 + years,用过去完成时态 21)help to do sth/be helpful in doing sth
3-8 语法 :og又重新整理了40题,不知道是背下答案了还是真的有所提高了,感觉出题点确实是在一眼扫过五个选项之后一比较就出来了,不过我是隐隐感觉自己还记着答案。希望不要只是记住答案啊,我的时间不多了。。。现在感觉NN说的对,比较选项头、尾、中间,答案就出来了,有时候感觉两个选项都可以,那是因为没有好好看未划线部分,不过如果考点在未划线部分,也基本是单复数的提示,还有and或其他什么的平行,要么就是时态的提示。 结果试了一下,prep做了十题错了四题,还是完全没长进: 1)The computer company has announced that it will purchase the color-printing division of a rival company for $950 million, which is part of a deal that will make it the largest manufacturer in the office color-printing market.
(A) million, which is part of a deal that will make (B) million, a part of a deal that makes (C) million, part of a deal making (D) million as a part of a deal to make ( to make 的修饰对象有歧义,原句是修饰 deal 的,但不定式的逻辑主语又可以是句子主语) (E) million as part of a deal that will make 2)be likely to do 或 it +be likely that 3)One/ones 用以避免重复可数名词,在正式谈话或书面语中,不应使用。不能用以取代不可数名词,与抽象可数名词连用也很少见 4)not only to transform… but to create… (also可以省略,表示并列的时候也是对的?) 5)in which case,固定搭配,“在这种情况下” in which case: you say in that case or in which case to indicate that what you are going to say is true if the possible situation that has just been mentioned actually exists. Members are concerned that a merger might mean higher costs, in which case they would opposite it.
