考点点拨 考例回顾
1. Last year some of her sons and daughters tried to persuade her to move to a nursing home, since no one in the family lived close enough to visit her every day. (P14)
[考点] 用作副词时,enough要置于它所修饰的形容词或副词之后。
[考例] Although she did not know Boston well, she made her way________ to the Home Circle Building. (2006湖南卷)
A. easy enough B. enough easy C. easily enough D enough easily
[点拨] 根据句意,可知空白处的词修饰动词短语make her way,故要用副词easily,可将A、B两项排除。又因enough要置于它所修饰的副词easily之后,所以D项也是错误的。
2. Alarmed, Allison phoned her grandmother in Scotland. (P15)
[考点] 除了作表语、定语和补足语等成分之外,形容词还可以用作状语,说明主语的状态,通常位于句首或句末。
Ripe, these oranges are very sweet.
熟了之后,这些桔子很甜。
Thank goodness. They eventually arrived home, safe and sound.
谢天谢地,他们总算安然无恙地到家了。
[考例] and happy, Tony stood up and accepted and prize. (2006全国卷I)
A. Surprising B. Surprised C. Being surprised D. To be surprising
[点拨] 表示心理状态的动词 (如surprise, excite, worry, interest, tire等)的现在分词和过去分词形式通常都可用作形容词。其现在分词形式表示“令人……的”,多用来修饰事物名词,其过去分词则表示“感到……的”,多用来指人所处的状况。surprised and happy在句中作状语,说明Tony站起来领奖时的心情。
3. I’m very honored, although it still feels strange. (P22)
Instead of patenting the system or restricting its use, Berners-Lee gave away his invention, making it possible for the Web to grow at a fast rate. (P22)
[考点] it是一个用途很广的词。它可以表示时间、距离及自然现象等,也可代替不定式作形式主语和形式宾语 (为了使句子保持平衡)。除此之外,它还可以用在一些动词之后。虽然无所指,却表示特定的意义。如make it (赶上;取得成功),manage it (成功),hate it (不喜欢)等。
[考例1] As the busiest woman in Norton, she made _____ her duty to look after all the other people’s affairs in that town. (2006湖南卷)
A. this B. that C. one D. it
[点拨] 通读题干,空白处的词显然作made的宾语,而真正的宾语则是不定式to look after all the other people’s affairs in that town。四个选项中,唯有D项可以用作形式宾语。注意:不定式短语作宾语,同时还带宾语补足语时,需将不定式移至宾补之后,在原来宾语的位置上用引导词it作形式宾语。
[考例2] If I can help ,I don’t like working late into the night. (2006全国卷I)
A. so B. that C. it D. them
[点拨] 口语中,if I can help it多用来表示“有办法做某事或控制某局面”,it在此是固定用法,并无实义。由句子提供的语境“I don’t like working late into the night”可知该句的意思是“如果我能应付的话,我可不喜欢工作到深夜”。
