第2課
非謂語動詞與獨立主格:短語,句子(或者句子,短語)
1.當短語部分有獨立主語,並且該主語不同於句子主語,這時短語結構稱爲獨立主格。(它最明顯的特點是短語部分有獨立的主語)。
獨立主格的結構1:名詞(代詞)+ 分詞 [現在分詞、過去分詞]
現在分詞表示主動的,正在進行的行爲;過去分詞表示被動的,已經完成的行爲。 作題時要通過判斷動作與名詞(代詞)之間的關係來確定是使用現在分詞還是過去分詞。當動作由名詞(代詞)發出時使用現在分詞,而名詞(代詞)是受動者時則用過去分詞。
54. Silver is the best conductor of electricity, copper _B_ it closely.
A followed B following C to follow D being followed
49. All things _A_, the planned trip will have to be called off.
A considered B be considered C considering D having considered

獨立主格的結構2:with + 名詞(代詞)+ 分詞 [句子當中作狀語]
36. After the Arab states won independence, great emphasis was laid on expanding education, with girls as well as boys _C_ to go to school.
A to be encouraged B been encouraged C being encouraged D be encouraged
as well as 和(相當於and); be encouraged不會考。
動詞不定式有預示將來行爲的含義。to be encouraged 將要被鼓勵;
been encouraged 已經被鼓勵完了,與主句的謂語動詞相對;being encouraged 正在被鼓勵
2.短語部分沒有獨立主語,則短語結構稱爲非謂語動詞。
非謂語動詞的結構:分詞(分詞短語)
句子的主語決定非謂語動詞中的分詞是用主動還是被動形式。如果是句子的主語發出動作,則使用現在分詞;如果動作不是由句子的主語發出,則使用過去分詞。
43.No matter how frequently _A_, the works of Beethoven always attract large audiences.
A performed B performing C to be performed D being performed
perform vt. 表演,演出,演奏;
to be performed 將要被演奏; being performed 正在被演奏;
一些特殊的動詞:
第一點:forget 忘記; [反義] remember 記得;
這兩個詞後加動詞不定式表示將要進行的行爲;這兩個詞後加動詞ing形式表示已經做過的事情。
注意:動名詞與現在分詞形式一樣,但含義不同。這兩個詞後加動詞ing形式都是動名詞。
forget to do sth. 忘記要去做某事; forget doing sth. 忘記做過某事;
remember to do sth. 記得要去做某事; remember doing sth. 記得做過某事;
62. I remember _B_ to help us if we ever got into trouble.
A once offering B him once offering C him to offer D to offer him
offer vt. 提出,提供; offer sb. sth. / offer to do sth.
him once offering 如果改成 his once offering 也正確。
動名詞的複合結構:凡是一個動詞的後面可以加動名詞,就可以加動名詞的複合結構。
動作發出者 + 動名詞;當動作發出者名字給出時:名詞所有格 + 動名詞;當動名詞的複合結構在文章中出現,且動作發出者在前文中提過時:形容詞物主代詞(賓格)+ 動名詞。
形容詞物主代詞:his, her, my, your, their, our。代詞賓格:him, her, me, you, us, them。
第二點:want 想要; want to do sth. 想做某事; want doing 客觀需要或缺乏。
48. Your hair wants _B_. You'd better have it done tomorrow.
A cut B cutting C to cut D being cut
注意:want doing 中doing表示的是被動含義。

第3課
倒裝:倒裝有全部倒裝和部分倒裝。
謂語部分所有單詞都放在主語前是全部倒裝。謂語的一部分放在主語的前面是部分倒裝。
謂語中的一部分通常是指:1、系動詞;2、助動詞;3、情態動詞。
全部倒裝的五條原則:
1. There be句型(表示有);
2. 以There或now開頭的句子,且句子謂語動詞爲come或go;
There you go again. 你又去那裏了。
3. 以Here開頭的句子,且句子謂語動詞爲系動詞be; Here you are. 拿去。
4. 以副詞out, in, up, down, away開頭的句子;
在2、3、4前提下,如果句子的主語是代詞則用陳述句語序。
5. 以狀語(常見的是地點狀語)開頭的句子。
部分倒裝的六條原則:
1. so放在句首時表示承前肯定,這個句子用部分倒裝;
nor, neither放在句首時表示承前否定,句子也用部分倒裝;
2. 省略了引導詞if 的虛擬條件從句,可以把從句中的had, should, could, were中的任何一個提到從句最前面的位置,構成部分倒裝;
3. as, though表示“儘管”時引導從句,從句中的表語可以置於引導詞之前構成部分倒裝;
系動詞後面的部分就是表語,形容詞、名詞、名詞性短語可以置於系動詞之後。
例如:She is beautiful. They are students.
四級考試中出現的是由動詞的過去分詞轉變的形容詞作表語的形式。
26. _B_ as it was at such a time, his work attracted much attention.
A Being published B Published C Publishing D To be published
當題幹是as引導一個從句,且as前爲一個空格時他表示的就是儘管,空格處要填的就是表語。
being published 正在被出版; to be published 將要被出版。
此句恢復正常語序應爲: As it was published at such a time …
4. 表示否定含義的單詞或短語放在句首,句子用部分倒裝;
常見的一些表示否定含義的單詞:never, little, few, hardly (… when), scarcely (… when) ;
seldom 難得,不常;nowhere 哪裏都不。
常見的一些表示否定含義的短語:in no way 決不; on no account 決不;
under no circumstances 在任何情況下都不。
5. only + 狀語放在句首,句子用部分倒裝;(如果only去掉就是全部倒裝)
43. Only under special circumstances _C_ to take make-up tests.
A permitted are freshmen B freshmen are permitted
C are freshmen permitted D are permitted freshmen
freshmen 新生; make up for 彌補,補償; make-up tests 補考(緩考)。
6. 注意兩個表達形式:come what may 無論發生什麼情況; say what you will 暢所欲言。
-------------------------1991-06-------------------------
強調句式的補充內容:被強調部分是疑問詞時的情況。
60. When I try to understand _C_ that prevents so many Americans from being as happy as one might expect, it seems to me that there are two causes.
A why it does B what it does C what it is D why it is
prevent sb. from doing sth. 妨礙(阻止)某人做某事。
強調部分本爲: it is what that prevents so many …
又因爲句中有疑問詞,應寫爲: what is it that prevents so ...
但強調句式在句中作賓語成分,故正確寫法爲: what it is that …
50. I like watching TV _C_ to the cinema.
A more than to go B than going C more than going D rather than to go
than 除構成固定短語外就要與比較級搭配,不會單獨出現; rather than + 動詞原形;

1 找出連接詞,2 使要填部分與已給出的對應部分形式完全一樣。
51. I appreciate _D_ to your home.
A to be invited B to have invited C having invited D being invited
appreciate + 動名詞(不能加動詞原形,不能加句子)。

第4課
主謂一致:指的就是給出主語,要求判斷謂語動詞是用單數還是複數的問題。
一、就近原則:
指句子的主語由兩部分單詞或短語構成時,由離謂語動詞近的那部分主語來決定謂語動詞的單複數。
只有當以下單詞或短語連接主句的兩部分時就近原則才適用:
1. or 或者; 2. either … or … 不是…就是… ,…或… ; 3. neither … nor … 既不…也不… ;
4. not only … but also … 不但…而且… ; 5. not … but … 不是…而是…
例如:主語1 or 主語2 謂語動詞。 此時由主語2決定謂語動詞。
10. _C_ either he or his accountants going to claim for the loss?
A Are B Where C Is D Does
如果題目改變爲:Either he or his accountants ___ going … 則應選A
二、句子謂語動詞一定用複數的兩種情況:
1. 集合名詞做主語,集合名詞沒有複數形式,因爲他本身就代表一個複數概念。
常見的幾個複合名詞: people 人民,人們; police 警察; cattle 牛; poultry 家禽。
2. 表示數量的複數名詞 + 不可數名詞,整體做主語時
例如:去年出口了八百萬頓煤。 Eight million tons of coal were exported last year.
三、謂語動詞一定用單數的六種情況:
1. 句子的主語是由從句充當的、動詞不定式短語作主語、動名詞短語作主語;
2. 表示時間、重量、長度、價值四方面的詞做主語;
399. -- “How many days?”
0 -- “Did you say that five days _C_ required to complete that work?”
A are B were C was D is
3. 表示單數概念的主語,短語,謂語動詞,此時謂語動詞也用單數;
因爲此結構中短語只是對主語提供附加說明情況,所以謂語動詞也用單數。
當以下這些標誌性的介詞或介詞短語出現在此結構中時可以不管中間的附加說明情況:
with, together with, like, except, besides, in addition to, rather than, as well as
注意:表示複數概念的主語,短語,謂語動詞,此時謂語動詞應用複數。
4. each, every, either, some, any, no,由以上六個詞中任何一個所構成的複合代詞作主語時;
some經常構成的三個複合代詞:something, somebody, someone;
no經常構成的三個複合代詞:nothing, nobody, no one; either of + 短語;
5. 通常由and連接兩部分這種形式做主語謂語動詞要用複數,但在以下兩種情況下則應用單數;
1> and連接的兩部分指的是同一事物;
2> and連接的兩部分被no, each, every中任何一個詞修飾時;
例如:每位男士和女士都要着裝得體。 be supposed to do sth. 理應,應該做某事。
Every man and every woman is supposed to dress properly.
11. Many an airplane _B_ in the exhibition.
A are shown B has been shown C has shown D show them
many a(an) 很多,相當於many; many a(an) + 可數名詞單數,做主語時謂語動詞用單數。
6. many a (an) + 可數名詞單數,作主語時謂語動詞用單數。
9. Not only Joan but her sisters _B_ the combination to the safe which contains the list of the family securities.
A have known B know C knows D is knowing
not only … but also … 的一種變形形式,not only … but …
另一種變形形式not only … but … as well

第5課
虛擬語氣
一、虛擬語氣的規則用法:
1主、從句都表示與過去事實相反:
從句的謂語動詞用:had + 動詞過去分詞;
主句的謂語動詞用:情態動詞 + have + 動詞過去分詞。
注意:能用於虛擬語氣的情態動詞只有四個:should, could, would, might.
使用哪一個情態動詞要由句子含義決定,考試中出現最多的是could, would.
2 主、從句都表示與現在事實相反:
從句的謂語動詞用:動詞過去式(如果是be則只能用were)
主句的謂語動詞用:情態動詞 + 動詞原形。
3 主、從句都表示與將來事實相反:
從句的謂語動詞用:were to + 動詞原形(重點)、should + 動詞原形、動詞過去式;
主句的謂語動詞用:情態動詞 + 動詞原形。
二、虛擬語氣的特殊應用:
1 would rather + 句子,這時句子謂語動詞用一般過去時來體現虛擬語氣。
2 if only 如果,要是...就好了,if only + 句子,這時句子一定要用虛擬語氣。
有兩種形式可以體現虛擬語氣:
a. 如果該句子如果表示與現在或將來事實相反,謂語動詞用一般過去時。
b. 如果該句子如果表示與過去事實相反,謂語動詞用過去完成時。
70. Look at the terrible situation I am in! If only I _B_ your advice.
A follow B had followed C would follow D have followed
47. If only the committee _D_ the regulations and put them into effect as soon as possible
A approve B will approve C can approve D would approve
注意:當if only後的句子表示與現在或將來事實相反,該用動詞過去式來表示虛擬語氣,而選項中又沒有時,可以採用這種形式:would + 動詞原形。
3 當以下動詞後加句子時,句子應用虛擬語氣,句子謂語動詞的形式是:(should)+ 動詞原形。
a. 表示建議、提議的:suggest, advise, propose, recommend, move.
[move只有在表達在會議上提出提議時後面加虛擬語氣]
b. 表示要求的:ask, demand, require, request, desire.
c. 表示指揮、命令的:order, command, direct.
d. 表示堅持,堅持認爲的:insist.
4 it is + 第三點中動詞的過去分詞 + that引導的從句。
這樣的結構中從句謂語動詞形式爲:(should)+ 動詞原形。
以下幾個形容詞置於該結構中時也要用相同的形式來體現虛擬語氣:
important, necessary, essential, obligatory(有義務的,強制性的,必須的)。
5 第三點中動詞相應的名詞形式 + that引導從句,該從句同樣要用虛擬語氣,
謂語動詞形式爲:(should)+ 動詞原形。
經常用於這種結構的詞有:suggestion, advice, proposal, recommendation, motion.
6 以下一些表達方式所在的句子一定要用虛擬語氣。
or(表示否則), otherwise, unless, but for(若不是,若非)
當遇到含有以上四個表達方式的句子時,先要判斷該句是表示與現在、過去、還是將來事實相反,然後依照相應的虛擬語氣規則用法的形式來確定句子結構。
含有下面三個表達方式的句子體現虛擬語氣的形式是固定的:
lest(以免,防備), for fear that(惟恐), on condition that(在..條件下)
它們後面句子的謂語動詞的形式都是:(should)+ 動詞原形。
7 it is time 是...的時候了。
這個結構有以下兩種變形形式,所用虛擬語氣形式都一樣:it is high time / it is about time.
這三個結構後面加的句子謂語動詞都用一般過去時來體現虛擬語氣。
8 注意以下兩種情況下should + 動詞原形中should不能省略。
這裏should表示一種語氣,經常被翻譯成“竟然”。
a. 四個動詞:think, believe, expect, suspect.
它們的否定或者疑問形式後面加句子,句子謂語動詞用:should + 動詞原形,should不能省略。
I don't believe that he should be cheated. 我不相信他也會被騙。
b. it is a pity, it is a shame 真遺憾,it is strange 真怪
以上三個結構後面加的句子謂語動詞用:should + 動詞原形,should不能省略。
錯綜時態的虛擬語氣
錯綜時態的虛擬語氣即指主句和從句在表達是與什麼時態的事實相反上並不一致(比如主句要表達與現在事實相反而從句要表達與過去事實相反),這種情況要採用“對號入座”的方法來處理,即主從句結構分別採用與其表達時態對應的結構。

which在做非限定性定語從句引導詞時有兩個特點:
1 which前要有逗號與前面句子分開; 2 which引導非限定性定語從句指的是前面整句話的內容。
只要引導非限定性定語從句as和which都指一句話內容,區別在於which只能放在它所指那句話的後面,而as可以在前面也可以在後面。

第6課
關於逗號的一些知識
原則:逗號沒有能力連接兩個單獨的句子。
如何區分短語與句子?一個結構如果有完整的謂語部分就是句子。
何爲完整的謂語部分?如果能判斷出一個結構的時態就可以稱這個結構爲完整的謂語部分。
在什麼樣的情況下一個逗號可以將句子分成兩部分,而這兩部分都有完整的謂語呢?
1 兩個句子中間有連接詞連接;
2 這兩個句子是主從句關係(主從句之間一定要有句子引導詞來引導)。
