知识点解析

例1 I don’t think the watch will ______ much. It is ______ 30 dollars at most.

A．cost; worth B．worth; cost C．take; cost D．need; worth

解析：cost一词意为“价值（多少钱）”或“花费（金钱、时间、劳力等）”。它的主语是物，可接双宾

语。worth是形容词，意为“价值”、“值得……”，后接名词或动名词。

答案 A

例2 —How can the problem be solved?

—Well, we must ______ it to the president’s own judgment.

A．depend B．suggest C．expect D．leave

解析leave…to one’s judgment意为“把……交给……去决定”。

答案 D

tice.

例3 “Can’t you read?” she said ______ to the no

A．angrily pointed B．angrily pointing

C．and point angrily D．angrily pointed

解析现在分词短语在句中用作状语，表示方式或伴随行为，其逻辑主语必须与句子的主语保持一致。

例如：

（1）It’s very easy to solve such problems, using computers. 用计算机来解决这类问题很容易。

（2）He stood at the gate, waiting for his friend from abroad. 他站在大门口，等着从国外回来的朋友。

答案 B

例4 —______ did you like his speech?

—Not bad, but didn’t agree with ______ he did.

A．What; that B．How; everything C．Why; what D．How; anything

可知下句表示部解析like在该题中为动词，其后有宾语speech，故应用How；由语境“not bad, but…”

分否定。

答案 B

例5 Detailed instructions are ______ in the booklet, ______ the way you get there.

A．including; included B．included; including

C．including; including D．included; included

解析句意为“细节的说明被包含在小册子，包括你到那里的方式”，第一空instruction与include是动

宾关系，应用included，第二空including为介词，意为“包括、包含”。

答案 B

例6 I called ______ his house, but he wasn’t in. So I left a message telling him I would call ______ him the next day.

A．on; on B．at; at C．at; on D．on; at

解析call作为及物动词常用call sb.，意思是“给某人打电话”。作为不及物动词时意为“拜访”，“拜访

某人”用call on；“拜访某地”用call at。

答案 C

例7 He gains his ______ by printing ______ of famous writers.

A．wealth, work B．wealths, works

C．wealth, works D．wealths, work

解析wealth意为“财富”，是不可数名词，works表示“著作、作品”。故选C。

答案 C

例8 —Here is your letter, Jane, I fetched it.

—You’re so kind!

—______. By the way, don’t forget tonight’s meeting.

A．Don’t mention it B．Nothing important

C．No problem D．It doesn’t

matter at all

意为“谢谢”。

解析Don’t mention it用以表示不必道谢，道歉等。“You’ re so kind!”

答案 A

例9 With ______ I realized that I had won.

A．a thrill B．thrills C．a excitement D．excitements

解析thrill作“兴奋，激动”讲时是可数名词，据题意“我意识到自己获得胜利，心里一阵激动”，该处

应用单数形式 a thrill，而excitement作“兴奋，激动”讲是不可数名词。

答案 A

例10 They sit in a car that “falls” from a tall tower and they scream their ______ down to a safe landing.

A．road B．way C．track D．path

解析句意为“他们坐在一个小汽车里，这个小汽车从一个高塔下落下，他们一路尖叫着安全地着落了”。

（摸索着走），fight scream one’s way

意为“尖叫，狂叫着前进；一路尖叫”。相类似的用法还有feel one’s way

（曲折前进）。

one’s way（奋勇前进），force one’s way

（挤着向前走）；wind one’s way

答案 B

例11 If you don’t want to ______ me your new bike, I’ll ______ one from Mary.

A．borrow; borrow B．lend; lend

C．lend; borrow D．borrow; lend

解析本题主要区别lend与borrow，题意是：如果你不愿把自行车借给我，我会向玛丽借。答案 C 例12 A burning cigarette he threw into the wastepaper basket ______ fire to the hotel.

A．made B．set C．caused D．caught

纵火于……，放火”。

解析make a fire“

生火”，cause a fire“引起火灾”，set fire to…= set…on fire“

答案 B

例13 No matter how frequently ______, the works of Beethoven always attract large audiences.

A．performing B．performed C．to be performed D．being performed

解析由when，while等引导的状语从句，如果从句的主语与主句的主语是同一人或事物，可省略从

句的主语及be。本句中贝多芬的被反复表演，可见分词与句子的主语之间是被动关系，应该用过去分词，

故答案为B。

答案 B

例14 The reason ______ he was late was ______ he had taken a wrong bus.

A．why…because B．for…because of C．why…that D．for…that

解析先行词reason后接定语从句应用why引导也可以使用for which，这时其后的表语从句不能用because引导，虽然because可以引导表语从句，但其主语不能为reason。如：

That’s because ten years of hard work. 那是由于十年的艰辛劳动的缘故。

用that引导表语从句，解释reason的内容。

答案 C

选题角度：

本素材是挑选出考查本单元语言点的选择题进行例题解析，通过对具体例题的A,B.C.D四个选项所涉

及的所有知识点作详细的解说点拨，使学生进一步掌握和巩固好本单元的语言点，提高他们的学习能力。

误点批答

例1我迟到了，老师生气了。

误：The teacher got angry with my being late.

正：The teacher got（became）angry about my being late.

正：The teacher got（became）angry with me for my being late.

解析表示“生某人的气”，可用be（get, become, grow）angry with（at）sb.；表示“因某事而生某人的气”，可在sb.后加上for介词短语；表示“因什么事或对什么事而生气”，应用be（get, become, grow）angry about（at）sth.，但不能用with。当然，有时一句话可采用不同的表达方式。如：

他对我说的话很生气。

He grew angry at（about）my words.

He got angry with（at）me for my words（for what I had said）.

He was angry to hear my words（what I had said）.

例2她设法说服我戒了烟。

误：She tried to persuade me from stopping smoking.

正：She managed to persuade me into stopping smoking.

正：She managed to persuade me to stop smoking.

解析误句中有两处错误：①try to do意为“设法做某事”，但不一定会成功，而manage to do则意为“设法做成了某事”，强调结果。②“说服了某人做某事”可用persuade sb. to do sth.或persuade sb. into doing sth.，其中into不可换用别的介词。

例3我在这儿吸烟你不介意吧？

误：Would you mind me to smoke here?

正：Would you mind my smoking here?

正：Would you mind if I smoke here?

解析Would（Do）you mind后须接动名词作宾语，意为“做某事你介意吗？”；若说“我做某事你介意吗？”可在动名词前加物主代词my，但不能用me to do结构，也可用if引导的条件状语从句。

例4我们认为外语是有用的工具。

误：We consider a foreign language being a useful tool.

正：We consider a foreign language to be a useful tool /as a useful tool.

解析表示“认为某人或某事物是……”时，宾语后可以接名词、不定式或“as…”短语作宾语，但不能接

分词作宾语。如：

She considered him（to be）a fool /as a fool. 她认为他是个傻瓜。

上面（正）句也可以用被动语态。即：A foreign language is considered（to be）a useful tool /as a useful tool.

例5你还有什么话要说吗？

误：Do you have anything more to be said?

正：Do you have anything more to say?

解析动词不定式作定语时，如果主语是动词不定式动作的执行者，不定式常用主动结构。如不是，

该不定式要用被动结构。如：Tomorrow I am going to Beijing. Do you have anything to be taken there?

例6你给她回信了吗？

误：Have you replied her letter?

正：Have you replied to（answered）her letter?

解析作“回信；回答问题”等解时，reply是不及物动词，后须加to再接名词，而answer是及物动词，直接接名词。reply作及物动词用时，后须接从句，若reply后接某人，须在某人前加to。如：

I replied to her that I would accept her invitation. 我回答她说我将接受她的邀请。

高考题解析

例1 ______ from heart trouble for years, Professor White has to take some medicine with him wherever he goes.

A．Suffered B．Suffering C．Having suffered D．Being suffered

解析状语是for years，要用现在分词的完成时。经受了多年心脏病折磨的痛苦，怀特教授无论走到哪

里都不得不随身带着药。

答案 C

例2（2003高考春招题）

The manager, ______ his factor y’s products were poor in quality, decided to give his workers further training.

A．knowing B．known C．to know D．being known

解析“know”是the manager发出的动作，因此二者之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系，故应选择现在分词作

状语。

答案 A

例3（1999NMET）

—Do you think the Stars will beat the Bulls?

—Yes. They have better players. So I ______ them to win.

A．hope B．prefer C．expect D．want

解析hope不接不定式作的补，prefer, expect, want三个词虽都接不定式作宾补，但意思上有差别：prefer sb. to do sth.意为“宁愿……”；want sb. to do sth.意为“想要……”；而expect则含有“预料、预期”（to think that something will happen），与上文They have better players意思吻合。

答案 C

例4 He sent me an E-mail, ______ to get further information.

A．hoped B．hoping C．to hope D．hope

解析现在分词hoping表示与send me an E-mail同时发生的动作。不定式作目的状语时，其正确形式

是：He sent me an E-mail, to get further information.

答案 B

例5（2001 NMET）

______ such heavy pollution already, it may now be too late to clean up the water.

A．Having suffered B．Suffering C．To suffer D．Suffered

解析题干already暗示suffer的动作已在谓语动作之前发生。由于前半句是阐明后半句too late的原因，故用现在分词完成时作状语。本题中分词的逻辑主语，并非句子主语it，而隐含在句子的宾语river中，这

（falling的逻辑主语种特殊情况，在英语中也是常见的。如：Falling off the bike, the teacher’s leg was hurt.

暗含在主语的定语the teacher之中。）

答案 A

例6（2001NMET）

As we joined the big crowd, I got ______ from my friends.

A．separated B．spared C．lost D．missed

解析四个动词只有separated与from连用，get（be）separated from表示“……同……分开”，其句型结构与词义均与题干相吻合。

答案 A

例7______ such heavy pollution already, it may now be too late to clean up the river.

A．Having suffered B．Suffering C．To suffer D．Suffered

解析从already一词可知，要用现在分词的完成式。由于已经受到如此严重的污染，现在清理河道可

能太晚了。

答案 A

例8（2002上海高考题）

Though ______ money, his parents managed to send him to university.

A．lacked B．lacking of C．lacking D．lacked in

解析本题考查lack（缺少）的用法以及“连词+现在分词”作状语。lack用作及物动词，直接接宾语；

用作不及物动词，常接介词for；be lacking in表示缺乏某种品质、性格等，后接抽象名词；名词lack后则接of。本题应选现在分词lacking作状语，money直接作lacking的宾语。

答案 C

例9 The visiting Minister expressed his satisfaction with his talks ______ that he had enjoyed his stay here.

A．having added B．to add C．adding D．added

解析现在分词表示伴随情况。来访的总理对他的会谈表示满意。他又说，他在这儿过得很愉快。

答案 C

例10 —Why are you walking so anxiously?

—I’m ______ the result of my exam.

A．waiting for B．hoping C．wishing D．expecting

解析hope与wish通常不直接接名词（多与for搭配后再接名词），wait for虽作“等”解，但只客观表述“等”的行为，而expect则含有“期待”的心理。

答案 D

例11（1998 NMET）

European football is playing in 80 countries, ______ it the most popular sport in the world.

A．making B．makes C．made D．to make

解析make与play是两个同时发生的动作。该句countries后无连词and；表明make与play不是并列谓语，排除B、C。因make是伴随play发生的另一个动作，故该用现在分词making作伴随状语。

答案 A
