为了培养同学们的发现问题,分析问题,和解决问题的能力,命题人也常常出一些通过排除从而推知未知的东西的试题,而这我们要用排除法。 所谓排除法就是根据题目的要求,结合所学知识,排除题干中的冗余信息或者四个选项中的错误选项,从而降低理解难度,缩小选择范围,快速明确答案,提高命中率。具体来说有以下几点: 一、排除题干中的冗余信息 这些冗余信息包括插入语、定语从句、伴随状语等: 1. John plays football ___, if not better than, David. A. as well B. as well as C. so well D. so well as 解析:若能排除题干中的插入语If not better than 此题难度则大大降低,该题考查副词的比较等级的用法,as well as 这里意为“和......一样好”。答案是B。 2. Is this the girl ___you think is kind and honest? A. which B. who C. whom D. of whom 解析:若能排除题干中的插入语you think,便会发现定语从句缺少主语。而且指人,应用关系代词who,因此答案为B。 3. Hardly had all the points that the teacher taught ____down when the bell rang. A. to taken B. taking C. taken D. been taken 解析:此题句子结构复杂,难度颇大,里边包含hardly...when...句型,表示“一……就……”。若能识别出定语从句that the teacher taught ,则会发现其余部分是被动语态,答案为D。该句意为:我刚抄写完老师教的知识点就下课了。 4. Mr. Green together with his wife and children ___to Egypt by air for the ten –day holiday. A. go B. have gone C. is going D. are going 解析:题干中together with his wife and children 是伴随状语而不是并列主语。这样主语只有Mr. Green,据此判断谓语动词应用单数形式,只有C项符合乎要求。因此答案是C。 5. We didn’t plan our art exhibition like that but it ____very well. A. worked out B. tired out C. went on D. carried on 解析:本题中的tired out 是“精疲力竭”;went on 是“继续进行”;carried on是“进行下去”。通过上文“并没计划着像那样”,说明这一活动已结束,而从上面已知的B/C/D都无法表达这一语义,我们熟知work out 有“算出、解决”的意思,进一步延伸就是“结果”,所以选A。 6. It’s generally believed that teaching is ___it is a science. A. an art much as B. much an art as C. as an art much as D. as much an art as 解析:本题考查的是as...as 结构中的语序,所以A、B都不合适。因为第一个as 是副词,所以它不能直接修饰名词结构,它要求把这一结构中的形容词提到冠词之前,故本题选D。 评注:为了培养学生们的探索精神,以及在阅读中面对未知单词有良好的心理素质,命题人有意设计一个我们十分陌生的表达方式。我们可以依据我们所知道的、熟知的条件把它放在新的语境中,如果都不合适,那麽不熟悉的就可能是我们要选择的。 二、排除选项中的错误选项 1.Little Jim should love ____to the theatre this evening. A. to be taken B. to take C. being taken D. taking 解析:首先根据句意,“小吉姆是被带到剧院”,应用被动结构,故排除B、D,其次should love to do相当于would like to do,表示“想做某事”,后接不定式短语,可排除C,故答案是A. 2. My dictionary ___. I have looked for it every where but still ____it. A. has lost; don’t find B. is missing; don’t find C. has lost; haven’t found D. is missing; haven’t found 解析:首先根据句意“我的字典丢了”,我到处找但是还没有找到,物品丢失可以说be lost , be missing ; be gone , 据此排除A/C,其次,这是一个并列句,前后时态应一致,用现在完成时表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响;没有找到字典,因此排除B,答案是D。 3. ____, Mother will wait for him to have dinner together. A. However late is he B. However he is late C. However is he late D. However late he is 解析:首先however 引导的状语从句应用陈述语序,排除A/C;其次,在该状语从句中,however后边要紧接一个形容词或副词,排除B,故答案是D。 |
