1.It is______ any wonder that his friend doesn’t like watching television much.(广东) A.no B.such C.nearly D.hardly 此题的关键词是any, 因为any常用于疑问句、否定句或条件句中,而此句不是疑问句,也不是条件句,所以应该是否定句.no本身就相当于not any,于是排除A.因此,正确答案 D
第二招:适当转换句式
2.-Mr. Wang ,whom would you rather _______the important meeting? -Tom.
A.have attend B.have attended C.having attend D.have to attend
有时将题干的句式转换成自己更熟悉的句式,就很容易选出正确答案。如:将疑问句、强调句或倒装句改为陈述句,将无序句调整为正常句等。此题可将疑问句改为陈述句I have Tom attend the important meeting。因为would rather 后必须跟动原;have sb do sth。所以选A。
第三招:补全省略成分
3.-What do you think made Mary so upset? - _____ her new bike. A.Lost B.As she lost C.Losing D.Because of losing
口语中会使用一些省略句,作题是若将被省略的成分补充完整,答案就会一目了然。此题将答句补全,就是 her new bike made Mary so upset。显然,只能选C,用动名词作主语。
第四招:删除干扰部分
4.We agree to accept _____ they thought was the best tourist guide. A.whichever B.whoever C.whatever D.whomever 将起干扰作用的定语从句、介词短语或插入语删除,如删除I think/ suppose/believe,you know,of course等,从而更容易地选出正确答案。此题去掉插入语they thought ;宾语从句缺主语,又能与the best tourist guide 搭配的,只有答案B。
第五招:熟记固定搭配
5. Mr. Smith used to smoke _____ but he has given it up.(天津)
