英語狀語從句是高考的重點語法項目之一,該語法項目的考點是連詞。下面就結合連詞考點進行一些分析和歸納。
一、判斷引導時間狀語從句的連詞
考點介紹:可以引導時間狀語從句的連詞有:before, after, as, when, while, till, until等從屬連詞;by the time, as soon as等短語型連詞;no sooner…than…, not…until…, hardly…when…等搭配型連詞;each time, every time, next time, the moment/instant/minute等名詞型連詞;immediately等副詞型連詞。
典型考例:
1.---Where’s that report?
---I brought it to you ________ you were in Mr. Black’s office yesterday.(07北京)
A.if B.whenC.becauseD.before
析:B。該空表示“當……的時候”,因此應填when引導時間狀語從句。
2.It is difficult for us to learn a lesson in life ____we’ve actually had that lesson. (07天津)
A.untilB.afterC.sinceD.when
析:A。由語境邏輯可知,人的一生難以吸取教訓的狀態一直延續到真正有了教訓,因此該空應填until引導時間狀語從句。
3.He was told that it would be at least three more monthshe could recover and return to work. (07江西)
A.whenB.beforeC.sinceD.that
析:B。由語境邏輯可以推出在他恢復健康重新工作之前要過至少三個月,因此該空應填before引導時間狀語從句。
4.The field research will take Joan and Paul about five months; it will be a long time _______ we meet them again. (07安徽)
A.afterB.beforeC.since D.when
析:B。該空表示在我們再見面之前要過很長時間,因此應填before引導時間狀語從句。
友情提醒:使用when引導時間狀語從句時謂語動詞可以是持續性的也可以是短暫性的,而使用while引導時間狀語從句時謂語動詞必須是持續性的;until, till引導時間狀語從句時謂語動詞必須為持續性動詞,而使用not…until…搭配引導時間狀語從句時謂語動詞必須是短暫性的,該結構也可改為not until結構,并置于句首引導不完全倒裝句型;使用by the time, every time, each time, next time, immediately等連詞引導時間狀語從句時不能受漢語習慣影響在其后再加when等連詞,使用the moment/instant/minute引導時間狀語從句時不能受漢語習慣影響在前面加in, on, at等介詞,在后面加when等連詞;時間狀語應用一般現在時代替一般將來時。
二、判斷引導地點狀語從句的連詞
考點介紹:可以引導地點狀語從句的連詞有連接副詞where或wherever。
典型考例:The village has developed a lot we________learned farming two years ago. (07福建)
A.when B.whichC.thatD.where
析:D。由語境邏輯可以推出這個村子在我們兩年前學習農業技術的地方發展得很快,因此該空應填where引導地點狀語從句。
三、判斷引導讓步狀語從句的連詞
考點介紹:讓步狀語從句常由though, although,as, even if, even though, while, whatever, however、whoever等從屬連詞引導。whatever應接名詞,但也可以單獨使用;however應接原級形容詞、副詞,
典型考例:
1._________ I really don’t like art, I find his work impressive. (07山東)
A.AsB.SinceC.IfD.While
析:D。該空表示“盡管”,因此應填While引導讓步狀語從句。
2.Many of them turned a deaf ear to his advice, _______ they knew it to be valuable. (07浙江)
A.as if B.now that C.even though D.so that
析:C。該空表示“即使”,因此應填even though引導讓步狀語從句。
友情提醒:though,although,as等連詞引導讓步狀語從句時不可以再和but連用;as引導讓步狀語從句時常將表語、動詞、副詞提前,構成特殊倒裝句型,當表語為名詞時應去除不定冠詞再行前移。
典型考例:_______,his idea was accepted by all the people at the meeting. (07重慶)
A.Strange as might it sound

析:D。will be reduced表明該空為一般將來時,因用于條件狀語從句,因此應由一般現在時代替。
五、判斷引導原因狀語從句的連詞
考點介紹:原因狀語從句常由從屬連詞because, as, since, now that等引導。
典型考例:Parents should take seriously their children’s requests for sunglasses_________eye protection is necessary in sunny weather.(NMET2004上海)

七、判斷引導結果狀語從句的連詞
考點介紹:結果狀語從句常由so that, so…that…, such…that…等短語性連詞引導。使用so that引導結果狀語從句時從句中通常不出現can,could等情態動詞;使用so…that…結構引導結果狀語從句時so后面應接原級形容詞、副詞;使用such…that…結構引導結果狀語從句時,such后面常接名詞;so…that…結構置于句首引導結果狀語從句時常使用不完全倒裝句型。
典型考例:that Marie was able to set up new branches elsewhere.(07陜西)
A.So successful her business was
B.So successful was her business
