三、重点句型
1. But we don’t clap at the end of a television programme or a book, however good they are.尽管一个电视节目或一本书很好,但是在它们结束时我们却不拍手鼓掌。
however adv.“无论,不管”(后接形容词或副词);“然而,不过;仍然”

解析:答案为B现在分词在此表示结果,作状语。该句意义为:陌生人临走时说:“上帝保佑你”,这使得我吃惊地站在那儿。
四、重点语法
状语从句
状语从句有时间、地点、原因、目的、方式、结果、条件、让步等8种。
(一)时间状语从句
引导词有after, before, as, on
例句:Each/Every time he comes here, he will drop in on me.
每次他来这儿他都顺便看我。
He was ill last time I saw him.
上次我见到他时他病了。
No sooner had she heard the news than she cried.
她一听到这个消息就哭了。
辨析:when与while
when引导的从句动词可以是延续性的或短暂性的,while引导的从句中动词必须是延续性的;在“be... when...”句式中when表“at that time就在这时”意,这样用的when不能换为 while; while有时并不表示时间,而表示对比,意为“而”、“却”, when无这样的用法。
例句:When I got home I found the door locked.
While(或When)we were working in the fields,it suddenly began to rain.
He was wandering through the streets when a bike hit him.
His pencil is red,while mine is yellow.
辨析:till与until
一般情况下可以互换,但until可以位于句首,till则不能。
例句:Until it stops raining,the children can’t go out.
=Not until the rain stops can the children go out.
雨停了,孩子们才能出去。
(二)地点状语从句
引导词有where, wherever,,
例句:I’ll go wherever the people want me to go. (wherever= to any place where)
He works where his grandfather fought.
(where=in the place where)
Where there is a will,there is a way.
(Where=In the place where)
(三)原因状语从句
引导词有because, since, as, now (that)(既然)。
回答以why提出的问题时,只能用because, 不能用as等。
since= now (that ),表“既然”意,表示已知的或明显的原因,由此加以推论。
例句:Now that/Since you are free today, you may have a rest at home or go out for a walk.
for是一个并列连词,用来连接两个并列句,引导的句子是对前面一句话的内容的推测或补充说明。
例句:It must have rained last night, for the ground is wet.
The day has broken,for the birds are singing.
(这两句中的for都不可换为because或as, since等。)
(四)目的状语
引导词有so that, in order that, that, in case(免得,以防)。目的状语从句谓语常含有can/could/may/might/will/would等情态动词。
例句:He ran as fast as possible in order that he could catch the bus.
Please remind me of it again tomorrow in case I forget.
请明天再提醒我一下,以免我忘记。
(五)方式(或比较)状语从句
引导词有as, as if, as though, than, as/so... as, the more... the more.
例句: Tom is not so/as tall as John.
It looks as if it is going to rain.
He runs faster than I.
注: as... as既可用于肯定句,又可用于否定句,so... as只能用于否定句。
(六)结果状语从句
引导词有so... that, such. . . that, so that.
例句:He works so hard that he makes great progress in his studies.
It’s such a difficult problem that nobody can work it out.
There’s not any noise here so that I feel very comfortable.
第3个例句中so that从句不是目的状语从句,从结构上看没有can, may等情态动词,从意思上看I feel very comfortable是There’s not any noise的结果。
(七)条件状语从句
引导词有if, unless, as/so long as, on condition that, in case(如果)等,从句的时态用一般现在时(含现在完成时),一般过去时(含过去完成时)分别代替一般将来时和过去将来时。
例句:If it rains tomorrow,I won’t go there.
He said he would not go back home unless he had achieved a lot.
I’ll study so long as I’m alive.
In case he come, let me know.
如果他来的话,告诉我一声。
if引导的条件句可以是真实性条件句,也可以是非真实性条件句(用于虚拟语气)。
(八)让步状语从句
引导词有though, although, even if, even though, as,whoever,whatever,however,no matter+what/ who/when/……等。
例句:Though/Although he is ill,he still goes to school.
She started her experiment,even though she had little money.
Whatever you found,you must turn it in.
However hard he worked,he hardly made any progress.
as作“尽管”意时,一般将其句中的表语放在句首。
例句:Young as he is, he knows a lot.=Although he is young,he knows a lot.
若表语为名词,冠词要省略。
例句:Child as/though he is, he has remembered a lot of English words.(此句中though不可换为although)
although或though不能与but同时出现在一个复合句中,但是“Although/Though,(and) yet...”句式却是正确的。
例句:Although it is raining heavily,yet they are repairing the bridge.
【真题链接】
If you go to Xi’an,you will find the palaces there more magnificent than commonly ________.
A. supposing B. supposed C. to suppose D. suppose
解析:答案为B。than后实际上是一个比较状语从句的省略式,其完整形式是than they are commonly supposed。
We won’t give up ________ we should fail ten times.
A. even if B. since C. whether D. until
解析:答案为A。观察题干,空白处应填一表“即使”之意的词。
一What was the party like?
—Wonderful. It’s years________ I enjoyed myself so much.
A. after B. when C. before D. since
解析:答案为D。答话者既然说“Wonderful”,那么后面的话必然是对此作进一步的补充说明,只有选D项才能表达“我多年未曾这么开心过了”的意思。注意这儿的since从句中谓语动词enjoyed是延续动词,该句相当于I haven’t enjoyed myself so much for years。
John plays football _______,if not better than,David.
A. as well B. as well as C. so well D. so well as
解析:答案为B。if not better than是插入语,可将其撤开,这时空白处要填as well as才能与David相连接,D项在此不可用(so... as只能用于否定句)。A, C两项皆少as.
If we work with a strong will,we can overcome any difficulty,_________ great it is.
A. what B. how C. however D. whatever
解析:答案为C 观察题目,可知空白处要填一词与great合表“无论多大”意。而however = no matter how great it is一起正好表此意,其余项都不能表这意思。
Mother was worried because little Alice was ill,especially _______ father was away in France.
A. as B. that C. during D. if
解析:答案为A。首先可以排除C,因为during是介词,不能引导从句。B 项 that, D项if都不能引导原因状语,故只能选A, as表“因为”。
She thought I was talking about her daughter, ______,in fact I was talking about my daughter.
A. whom B. where C. which D. while
解析:答案为D空白处需填一个表示转折对比的连词,while可表“而”、“却”意,故答案为D
I admit his good points_________ I can see his bad on
A. when B. as C. while D. before
解析:答案为C若选A, B或D, admit应改为admitted, can应改为could,因为when, as表示“当……的时候”before表“在……之前”,通常涉及过去某时发生的动作、情况。此题选C, while在此不表“当……的时候”意,而表“虽然、尽管”意。全句意思是“尽管我承认他的优点,我还是看到他的缺点”。

The interview has been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well. Then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, “Which is more imp
Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this. And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.
Employers want people who are skilled, enthusiastic and devoted. So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicant will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are. In response, employers are increasingly using the questions which try and show the applicant’s true personality.
The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Kiersey Temperament Sorter. It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know. This is often called aptitude (天资)test.
According to Mark Baldwin of Alliance, many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult. “When a Chinese fills out an aptitude test, he or she will think there is a right answer but they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.”
This is sometimes called the prisoner’s dilemma (窘境). Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest, but they fail because they don’t understand what the interviewer is looking for. Remember that in an aptitude test, the correct answer is the honest answer.

It has been said before, but experiencing it myself has made me want to say it again: a smile can cross all language barriers.
I recently moved from Canada to a small city on the south coast of South Korea to work as an English teacher. My first few weeks in Chinhae were challenging. I knew on
At the grocery stores, I could not read the food packages and certainly did not know how to ask for help. _____________. Such little frustrations began to add up and I soon felt homesick and tired. I longed for some familiar food, familiar sounds, anything familiar!

“Canada?” She asked slowly, pointing at my chest.
“Yes,” I answered.
“Korea?” I said, pointing at her. We both laughed.
When it was time to leave, I said “thank you” in Korean, using some of the few words I had learned. I went home to my apartment feeling less alone than I had expected to feel that evening. Chinhae felt less like a strange and frightening place, and more like a home. I don’t think the old landlady knew how much her smile and her wonderful food meant to me that evening, but perhaps someday I will be able to tell her.

Most of us want to be greener, and all of us want to be richer. Although the on
Petrol is unlikely to become any cheaper. Oil prices, already at record levels, were put under more pressure this week after President Morales of Bolivia nationalized his country’s oil and gas reserves. Turning to a more environmentally friendly car could make a big decline in motoring costs. About on
Hybrid cars run on petrol and batteries, making them more economical and less harmful to the environment than petrol-run vehicles. A driver who travels an average of 10,000 miles a year could save nearly£300 a year on petrol by driving the Honda Civic Hybrid rather than the petrol-run version, and would release (释放) on
Andrew Davis, director at the Environmental Transport Association (ETA), a motor breakdown company, says that the key to cutting fuel costs is to reduce engine size. “Those who don’t want to go for a ‘green’ car can cut down on environmental effect and fuel costs by reducing the size of their car.” A Citroen C1 is not a hybrid car, but its low carbon dioxide releases rival (竞争) the Honda and Toyota hybrids.
Another way to cut costs is to change a car to run on liquid petroleum gas (LPG). Ingram Legge, director of the Greenfuel Company, which changes cars to LPG, says that there has been a rise in the number of motorists changing their cars.
