重难点 09 固定搭配 随着高考命题由知识型向能力型的转化,对英语常用动词搭配(包括短语动词)的考查方 式也日趋灵活多样。因此复习备考时针对动词搭配这一考点要活跃思维,提高解题能力。 熟练掌握固定搭配结构,熟背固定句型是得满分的必备要求。 句式1:It /This / That is /was the first /second /... time that... 考法1 该句型表示 “这/那是第一二次……”, 从句常用完成时。当主句为一般现在时或 一般将来时,从句用现在完成时;当主句为一般过去时,从句用过去完成时。 考法2 ①、It is( about high) time that... 意为“到某人做…的时候了”,从句谓语用过去式(be动 词用were)或“ should+动词原形”。 ②、It is time( for sb...)to do 是(某人)做…的时候了。 ③、the first time可起从属连词的作用,引导时间状语从句。 ④、for the first time 意为“第一次”,在句中单独作状语。 经典例句 ●The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power,it was the first time in a year and a half that I'd seen the night face to face... 漆黑的夜晚,风雨交加,电闪雷鸣,我全然被这种力量镇住了;这是我一年半以来第一次目睹夜 晚… ● And this is the first time I've visited your hometown. 这是我第一次去你的家乡。 句式2、“make+it+adj.+( for sb./sth.) to do sth."结构 考法1 在该结构中, it为形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式结构,it后的形容词为 宾语补足语,for用于引出不定式的逻辑主语。 考法2①、能用于上述结构的动词还有 consider, think, find, believe, feel, judge等。 ②、该结构中的宾语补足语除了可以用形容词外,还可以用名词(词组)。 ③、真正的宾语除了可以用不定式结构之外,还可以用that引导的从句。 经典例句 ●Does this disability make it difficult for them to do some things? 这种残疾会不会使他们在做一些事情时有困难呢? ●He made it clear that he wanted me to stay for another week. 他清楚地表示他希望我能再 待一周。 句式 3 not all...部分否定 考法 not all...表示部分否定。具有全体意义的代词或副词both, every, everyone, everywhere, everybody, everything, always, entirely, completely, wholly, altogether等,可与not连用构成部 分否定。 经典例句 ●Not all cultures greet each other the same way, nor are they comfortable in the same way with touching or distance between people. 各种文化背景下人们互致问候的方式不尽相同,对身体接触和相互间距离感到舒服自在的 程度也并不一样。 句式 4 ever since句型 考法1 ever since意为“从……以后一直”,主句要用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。具 有类似用法的时间状语还有 so far, up till now, by now, recently, lately, since last month, "in/for/during/ over the past/last+一段时间”,since...ago等。 考法2 It is/ has been-+时间段+ since...自从…...已经多久了。It will be//was+时间段+ before...再有多长时间才…... ,在“It is/ has been+时间段+ since...”句型中,若 since从句中 的谓语动词用的是延续性动词的过去式,句子意思要发生变化,表示该动作结束有多长时间 了。 经典例句 ●Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. 从中学起,我姐姐王薇和我就一直梦想进行一次伟大的自行车旅行。 ●Greece's best writers lived in ancient Athens.
