Unit1考点透视考例回顾
1. Sitting in his now-famous wheelchair... Hawking told the students about his theories and thoughts... (Reading)
【考点】 -ing形式作状语时,其逻辑主语应该与句子的主语保持一致。本句中的
sitting动作由Hawking发出。
【考例1】 Finding her car stolen, _____.(上海 2001) A. a policeman was asked to help B. the area was searched thoroughly C. it was looked for everywhere D. she hurried to a policeman for help
【解析】 find动作应该由人来发出,所以句子的主语应该指人。A、D两项主语
都是人,据句意可知,应选D。
此句可以转换成:When she found her car stolen, she hurried to a policeman for help.
【考例2】 Suddenly, a tall man driving a golden carriage____ the girl and took her
away, _____ in the woods. (上海2004春)
A. seizing; disappeared B. seized; disappeared C. seizing;disappearing D. seized; disappearing
【解析】由题中的and可知,第一空所填词应与took并列,所以用seized;disappear
是不及物动词所以用其-ing形式作状语;disappearing的逻辑主语就是句子的主语a tall man,故选D。
2. Do you have anything that you want to add? (Grammar)
【考点】当谓语动词为be, have, give, bring等时,作定语的不定式常用主动式表示
被动含义。
【考例】 I’m going to the supermarket this afternoon. Do you have anything _____?
(上海 2004 春)
A. to be buying C. for buying
B. to buy
D. bought
【解析】后句相当于Do you have anything that you want to buy?
应用不定式的主动式表示未发生的动作,故选B。
3. Perhaps the most important thing if we want to make a difference is to find something that we like to do and that we are good at. (Integrating Skills)
【考点】不定式作表语可以表示目的、预期的结果、安排、决定、禁止、命令等。 【考例】 Do let your mother know all the truth. She appears ___ everything.
(上海2001)
A. to tell B. to be told C. to be telling D. to have been told
【解析】 appear相当于系动词,其后的不定式作表语;tell是及物动词,后面要接宾语。在这个句子中,tell后无宾语,要用动词不定式的被动式。知道了一切事情发生在告诉真相之前,要用动词不定式的完成式。故选D。
