典题精析
1．2005北京高考 Scientists think that the continents
always where they
oday.
A.aren’t;are
B.aren’t;were
C.weren’t;are
D.weren’t;were
解析：本题考查谓语动词的时态。题意是“科学家认为，这些大陆原来并不总在它们现在所处的位置上”。表示“原来不是”应用一般过去时，而表示“现在所处的位置”则要用一般现在时。故答案为C项。又如本单元课文中的一句话：Many of the sports were the same as they are now.
答案：C
2．2005山东高考 Oil prices have risen by 32 percent since the start of the year,
a record US $57.65 a barrel on April 4.
A.have reached
B.reaching
C.to reach
D.to be reaching
解析：本题考查非谓语动词的用法。题意是“油价从年初至今已上升了32%，4月4日已达创记录的每桶57.65美元”。由句中的逗号可判断出，空白处不是并列的谓语动词，故A项不正确。句子的后半部分应是结果状语，所以要用非谓语动词。现在分词作结果状语时表示自然而然的或必然的结果，而不定式则表示出乎意料的结果。根据题意可知此处应用现在分词。故答案为B项。又如本单元课文中的一句话：In Sydney the Chinese team got 28 gold medals, ranking third of all the competing countries.
答案：B
3．2005福建高考 —Can the project be finished as planned?
—Sure,
it completed in time,we’ll work two more hours a day.
A.having got
B.to get
C.getting
D.get
解析：本题考查非谓语动词的用法。题意是“这项工程能按计划完成吗？”“当然能，为了按时完成，我们每天要加班两个小时。”很明显，空白处要填入动词不定式作目的状语，其他几个选项无此用法。故答案为B项。又如本单元课文中的一句话：To make it the best ever Games,the capital city will make several big changes.
答案：B
4．2004广东高考 —Do you mind if I open the window?
—
I feel a bit cold.
A.Of course not.
B.I’d rather you didn’t.
C.Go ahead.
D.Why not?
解析：本题考查交际用语。Of course not.“当然不”；Go ahead.“行；请吧；去做吧”；Why not?“为什么不呢？有何不可？”I’d rather you didn’t.“我宁愿你不要去做”，用来表示比较客气的阻止或拒绝。题干中的第一个人说“我打开窗子你介意吗？”第二个人回答说“不要打开吧，我感觉有点儿冷。”据此可知答案为B项。would rather后常接动词原形，也可接一个从句，从句中要用过去时表示虚拟语气，如：I’d rather you came tomorrow./I’d rather you didn’t mention the price.
答案：B
5．In this forest there are more or less 15 kinds of snakes,
5 are extremely dangerous.
A.which
B.where
C.of which
D.in which
解析：本题考查定语从句的引导词。该题句意是：在这个森林里大约有15种蛇，其中5种非常危险。当表示“其中有几个；其中较……”时，要用one of;two of;five of;many of;the taller of等。
