語法精析精練

狀語從句

考點提示：

1. 對狀語從句的考查主要在單項填空題中；完形填空有時涉及狀語從句，如考查狀語從句從屬連詞的詞義判斷；短文改錯題中少有出現；書面表達中常用狀語從句。

2. 狀語從句考題的解題關鍵是連詞的意義，從試題的語義邏輯進行判定。熟記引導狀語從句的連詞的意義是必須的。

3. 注意區別易混誤用的幾組連詞，熟記含有狀語從句連詞的常用固定結構。

語法精析

一、熟記引導狀語從句的連詞的意義

1. when（1）當……時候；在……時候（2）既然

while（1）在……期間；和……同時（2）雖然，盡管

as（1）當……時候；隨著……；（2）因為；由于；（3）雖然（用倒裝語序）；（4）（not） as/so... as... （不）和……一樣……；（5）像……；按照……

2. before 在……之前

after 在……之后

3. since 自從……以來；既然；因為

4. as soon as； the moment/minute/instant； immediately； instantly； directly； no sooner...than...； hardly...when...

一……就……

5. until/till 直到……

6. every time/each time 每次

whenever 每當，每次

next time 下次

the first time 第一次

the last time 最后一次

any time 任何時候，隨時

by the time 到……時候

7. if 如果

unless 如果不；除非

as/so long as 只要……就……

on condition that 條件是……

in case 萬一；以防萬一

providing； provided （that）； supposing； suppose （that）

假如，如果

8. because 因為

now（that）既然

in that 因為；既然

9. though/although 雖然

even if/even though 即使；盡管

no matter what/how/where/when/which/who... = whatever/however/wherever/whenever/whichever/whoever... 無論什么、怎樣、哪兒、何時、哪個、誰……

whether... or... 無論……還是……

10. where 在/到……地方

wherever 在……任何地方；無論在/到哪兒

11. so... that.../such... that... 如此……以至于……

so that... 結果；為了，以便……

in order that... 為了，以便……

for fear that... 以防；因為害怕……

12. as if/as though 好像

二、注意幾組連詞的用法區別

1. when/while/as 三者都可表“當……時候”。

when：既可表具體某時，也可表一段時間；既可表主從句動作同時發生，也可表主從句動作先后發生，故常可替換while和as（as表“隨著……”的意義時除外）。注意：表示主從句動作先后發生時，只能用when。when還可表“既然；就在那時”（用作并列連詞）。

while：只表持續動作或狀態。注意：while引導的時間狀語從句中，謂語動詞只能是延續性動詞。while還可表“雖然；然而；卻”（用作并列連詞）。

as：表示從句與主句動作同時發生。as還有“隨著……”的意義，注意：“with + sb/sth + 賓補”結構也有此意義。區別在于結構不同：as引導從句，而“with + sb/sth + 賓補”是介詞結構。當然，除此之外as還有其他意義和用法。

2. because/as/since/now that/for

because：原因語氣最強。在強調結構It is/was... that... 中被強調部分是原因狀語從句時，其引導詞只用because。回答Why引導的疑問句時，也必須用because，不用其他連詞。

as/since/now that ：原因語氣弱，原因明顯，談話雙方都知道。

for：原因語氣最弱，甚至表示出來的不成為原因。注意：它是并列連詞，不能用于句首。

3. though/although/as/while

它們都有“雖然”的意義，引導讓步狀語從句。注意though和as的特別用法：

though引導的從句可用正常語序，也可將從句表語或狀語提到句首。另外注意though還可用作副詞，表“然而、可是”，相當于however，但它常位于句末。

as表“雖然”時，引導的從句要用倒裝語序，即將從句的表語或狀語、甚至動詞原形提到句首。

4. so... that.../such... that...

注意so和such的不同用法：

5. whatever/whoever/whomever/whichever...與no matter what/who/whom/which...

whatever/whoever等既可引導狀語從句，也可引導名詞性從句，但no matter what/who 等只引導狀語從句。

6. until/till

當引導的從句在句首，或與not直接連用（not until） 時，只能用until 。

三、熟記含狀語從句的常用固定結構

1. It is/has been... since...， It was/had been... since...

自從……以來，有多長時間了

2. It will be... before... 要過……（時間），才……

It was... before... 過了……（時間），才……

It will be/was long before... 很久才……

It won’t be/wasn’t long before... 不久就……

... before... could... 還沒來得及……就……

3. not... until/till... 直到……才……

It is/was not until...that... 直到……才……

第二部分 閱讀理解（共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分）

A

There are currently 32 million people in the United States who speak a language other than English， an increase of 38 percent since 1980. The inability to understand and use English well can make their many daily activities such as reading a bus list or help—wanted advertisements difficult. Many people who have limited English face far more serious problems when trying to manage their own health.

Imagine being brought into an emergency room and being unable to describe to the doctor what is wrong， or not going to the doctor because you are worried that you won’t be able to answer his or her questions. Imagine being prescribed a medicine and not understanding how to take it， or staring at the shelf in a store and being puzzled about which medicine to buy. These are the problems faced by many ESL（母語非英語的）students.

A recent study in the newspaper of General Internal Medicine showed that people who have difficulty reading or understanding health—related materials are twice as likely to end up in hospital as those who don’t. This can be caused by simply not knowing the number of pills to take or not under—standing the drug effects with their prescriptions.

Language obstacles can also cause problems in hospital. In another survey reported in the newspaper of General Internal Medicine， non—English speakers were less satisfied with their care in the emergency room， less willing to return to the same emergency room， and reported more problems with emergency care. In many cases， these problems happen because of com—munication difficulties between patients and health care professionals.

36. The passage mainly tells us that ___ .

A. people all over the world should speak English

B. language obstacles do harm to health and safety

C. language obstacles can cause failures in hospital equipment

D. more and more people realize the importance of English

37. About how many people spoke languages other than English in the United States in 1980？

A. 32 million.B. 38 million.

C. 6 million.D. 23 million.

38. The results of the two studies are showed in the article to ___ .

A. show that there is difficulty between patients and doctors

B. show that non—English speakers are more likely to fall ill

C. point out that the language obstacle is also a health obstacle

D. show that American medical services are not enough

It is hard to predict how science is going to turn out. And if it is really good science， it is impossible to predict. If the things to be found are actually new， they must be unknown in advance. You cannot make choices on this matter. You either have science or you don’t. And if you have it you have to accept the surprising and disturbing pieces of information， along with the neat and useful bits.

The only solid piece of scientific truth about which I feel totally confident is that we don’t know enough about nature. Indeed， I regard this as the major discovery of the past hundred years of biology. It is， in its way， a clear piece of news. It would have amazed the brightest minds of the 18th century to be told by any of us how little we know and how strange the way ahead seems. In earlier times， they either pretended to understand how things worked or simply made up stones to give answers. Now that we have begun exploring seriously， we are catching sight of how huge the questions are， and how far from being answered. Because of this， we are sorry. It is not so bad being ignorant（無知的）if you are totally ignorant； the hard thing is knowing in some detail the reality of ignorance， the worst spots and the not—so—bad spots， but no true light at the end of the tunnel nor even any tunnels that can be trusted.

But we are making a beginning， and there should be some satisfaction. There are probably no questions which we can think up that can’t be answered， sooner or later. Within our limits， we should be able to work our way through to all our answers， if we keep at it long enough， and pay attention to it.

40. According to the writer， really good science ___ .

A. will bring about disturbing results

B. will produce results which can’t be predicted

A. did more harm than good in man’s understanding nature

B. were afraid of facing up to the realities of scientific research

C. knew they were ignorant and wanted to know more about nature

D. thought they knew a great deal and could deal with most problems of science

42. What is the writer’s attitude towards science？

A. He is sorry because of the ignorance of scientists.

Sometimes I think I’m the shyest person on the planet. Over the years， I’ve done my best to calm down about intro—ductions， and I’ve found that thinking about what I can do can at least distract me from the worries I might have about a situation.

Be Human

Even if a person isn’t shy， a first meeting can be hard. It is important， though， to make the effort to relax in this situation. Whether or not you want to worry about impressing your new friend or client， doing it during a conversation makes it even harder to talk. You’ll either make that good impression， or not. Don’t worry about it during the process.

Think Ahead

Any pre—planned introduction is a chance for you to make the best possible introduction. It’s also a chance for you to associate yourself with certain ideas. Consider job interviews. Make a list of reasons that you are the best person for the job. Take the time to discuss them.

Create Connections

If you know that you’ll be meeting someone new ahead of time—whether attending meetings or going to a date， once you’ve got it， you already have an automatic conversation ready to go just by asking questions about the connection， “How long have you known Sarah？ Let me tell you about how she and I met！”

Dress Perfectly

It would be nice if we all went around fresh out of the shower and perfectly dressed. It’s never going to happen， but it would be nice.

That’s just life. However， we do what we can to minimize those situations. That’s all that I want to tell you.

43. From Paragraph 1 we can infer that ___ .

A. the author is out of work and is still hunting for a job

45. The underlined word “them” refers to ___ .

A. interviews

B. interviewers

C. reasons

第三部分 寫作（共四節，滿分55分）

第一節 任務型讀寫（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）

閱讀下面短文，根據所讀內容在表格中的空白處填入恰當的詞。

Communication Principles

How you see yourself can make a great difference in how you communicate.“Every individual exists in a continually changing world of experience of which he （or she） is the center.” Many communication scholars and social scientists believe that people are products of how others treat them and of the messages others send them. But every day we experience the centrality of ourselves in communication. A student， for instance， may describe a conflict with a teacher as unfair treatment：“I know my teacher doesn’t like the fact that I don’t agree with his opinions， and that’s why he gave me such a poor grade in that class. ”The teacher might say the opposite. Each person may believe that he is correct and that the other person’s view is wrong.

The concept of self originates in communication. Through verbal and nonverbal symbols， a child learns to accept roles in response to the expectations of others. You establish self—image， the sort of person you believe you are， by how others think of you. Positive， negative， and neutral messages that you receive from others all play a role in determining who you are. Communication itself is probably best understood as a dialogue process. Our understanding of communication comes from our interactions with other people. In a more obvious way， com—munication involves others in the sense that a competent communicator considers what the other person needs and expects when selecting messages to share. So， the communication begins with the self， as defined largely by others， and involves others， as defined largely by the self.

Communication occurs almost every minute of your life. If you are not communicating with yourself （thinking， planning， reacting to the world around you）， you are observing others and drawing inferences from their behavior. Even if the other person did not intend a message for you， you gather observations and draw specific conclusions. A person yawns and you believe that person is bored with your message. A second person looks away from you and you conclude that person is not listening to you. A third person smiles （perhaps because of a memory of a joke he heard recently） and you believe that he is attracted to you. We are continually picking up meanings from others’ behaviors and we are constantly providing behaviors that have communicative value for them.

More often than not， you may have hurt someone accidentally and you may have tried to explain that you did not mean that. You may have told the other person that you were sorry for your statement. You may have made a joke out of your rude statement. Nonetheless， your comment remains both in the mind of the other person and in your own mind. You cannot go back in time and erase your messages to others. Communication cannot be reversed（倒退）， nor can it be repeated. When you tried to re—create the atmosphere， the conversation， and the setting， nothing seemed right. Your second experience with a similar setting and person made far different results.
