高中英语易错难点
花积分在百词斩上兑换的,当积累用就行,真没总结什么东西。
1、形容词与副词类
1). We don’t care if a hunting dog smells _________, but we really don’t want him to smell _____.
A. well, well
B. bad, bad
C. well, badly
D. badly, bad
【陷阱】容易误选 B,认为两个 smell 均为连系动词,后接形容词作表语。
【分析】最佳答案为 D。句中的第一个 smell 为实义动词,意为“闻气味”、“嗅觉”, smell badly 意为“嗅觉差”;第二个 smell 为连系动词,意为“闻起来(有某种气味)”, smell bad 意为“闻起来气味难闻”。全句意为“我们并不介意一条猎狗的嗅觉不好,但我 们的确不希望它的气味难闻”。
2). “_________ do you think of your English teacher?” “Oh, he is an _________ man.”
A. What, interesting
B. What, interested
C. How, interesting
D. How, interested
【陷阱】容易误选 D,认为第一空应填 how,表示“如何”;第二空应填 interested, 因为有的书上说 –ing 形容词主要说明事物,-ed 形容词主要说明人。
【分析】其实最佳答案应是 A。英语中表示汉语的“你觉得……如何?”时,可用 How do you like ...? 或 What do you think of ...? 注意两者搭配不同,即 like 与 how 搭配, think of 与 what 搭配。另一方面,有的书认为:-ing 形容词说明事,-ed 形容词说明人。 此说法在很多情况下是可行的,但表述欠严谨。严谨的表述应该是:表示使(别)人感到 如何, 用-ing 形容词;表示人自己本身感到如何,用-ed 形容词。比较: All the children are interested. 所有的孩子都很感兴趣。 All the children are interesting. 所有的孩子都很有趣。 I read an interested expression on his face. 我看到他脸上露出一种感兴趣的表情。 I read an interesting expression on his face. 我看到他脸上露出一种有趣的表情。 再比较: He is frightened. 他很害怕。 He is frightening. 他很吓人。 He has a frightened look on his face. 他脸上带有惊恐的神情。 He has a frightening look on his face. 他脸上带有吓人的神情。
2、介词类
1). “You went late _________the stadium yesterday evening, didn’t you?” “Yes, my wife was a little late _________the supper.”
A. to, with
B. for, with
C. for, for
D. at, for
【陷阱】容易误选 B 或 D。
【分析】答案应选 A。第一空填 to 比较好理解,因为此处的 late 为副词,用以修 饰 go to the stadium 中的动词 go;而第二句的 with 则是许多同学不容易想到的,相反,更多地可能是想到 for,现将两者区别如下:be late for 表示做某事迟到,而 be late with 表示做某事做晚了(=be late in doing sth)。比较: We were late for dinner. 我们吃饭迟到了。 We were late with dinner [=in having dinner]. 我们吃饭吃得迟。 句中 my wife was a little late with the supper 的意思是“我妻子准备晚饭稍迟了一点”。
2). Sometimes our opinions differ _________what we choose to observe and how we deal with what we’ve observed.
A. which
B. since
C. because
D. because of
【陷阱】容易误选 C。按英语语法习惯,because 是连词,其后接句子;而 because of 是复合介词,其后接名词、代词或动名词等。
【分析】此题答案选 D。because 作为从属连词,主要用于引导原因状语从句,既 然是引导一个从句,也就是说它的后面不能再连用“引导词”。如: He was angry because we were late. 他很生气,因为我们迟到了。 They can’t have gone out because the light is on. 他们不可能出去了,因为灯还亮着。 Bread is cheap in this supermarket because they bake it themselves. 这家超市的面包是 自制的,所以便宜。 假若,一个从句已经有了自己的“引导词”,那么它前面就不宜再用 because 这个连 词了。如: She got angry because of what you said. 她哭是因为你说的话。 句中的 what 相当于 the thing that,也就是说 what you said 相当于 the thing that you said。其中 the thing 用作 because of 的宾语,而 that you said 为修饰 the thing 的 定语从句。 He lost his job because of how he treated his boss. 他因为对老板的态度(不好)而丢 了工作。 句中的 how 相当于 the way in which,也就是说 how he treated his boss 相当于 the way in which he treated his boss。其中 the way 用作 because of 的宾语,而 in which he treated his boss 为修饰 the way 的定语从句。
3、It 类
1). Everyone knows that _________ is dangerous to play with fire, but _________ is difficult is to prevent children from playing with fire.
A. it, it
B. what, what
C. it, what
D. what, it
【陷阱】很容易误选 B,认为两空均考查形式主语。
【分析】最佳答案是 C,第一空填形式主语,真正的主语是其后的不定式 to play with fire。第二空填 what,what is difficult 是主语从句,注意 what is difficult 后的谓语 动词 is。
4、名词类
1). Her father works as a _________ in a hotel and her mother a _________ in a private company.
A. cooker, typewriter
B. cook, typist
C. cooker, typist
D. cook, typewriter
【陷阱】误选 A,许多同学想当然地认为:cook 用作动词,表示“煮饭”,所以 cooker 应是其相应的名词,表示“煮饭的人”,即“厨师”;type 用作动词,表示“打字”,所以 typewriter 应表示“打字员”。
【分析】而事实是:cook=厨师,cooker=炊具;typist=打字员,typewriter=打字机。 即此题正确答案为 B。
2). “Why couldn’t they meet us at five o’clock?” “Because they were delayed by _______.”
A. heavy traffic
B. heavy traffics
C. crowded traffic
D. crowded traffics
【陷阱】B、C、D 三项均容易误选。
【分析】对于此题,首先要明确 traffic 为不可数名词,没有复数形式,故排除 B 和 D。另外,汉语习惯说“交通拥挤”,而英语习惯上却不能用 crowded 来修饰 traffic,要 表示汉语的“交通拥挤”,英语通常说 heavy traffic,即选 A。
5、虚拟语气类
1). I forget where I read the article, or I _________ it to you now.
A. will show
B. would show
C. am going to show
D. am showing
【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】正确答案选 B。根据上文的语境可知句中的 or 隐含有一个虚拟的条件,即 or=if I didn’t forget where I read the article(要是我没忘记我在哪儿读过这篇文章的话— —但事实上忘了)。
6、时态类
1). “I _______ his telephone number.” “I have his number, but I ________to bring my phone book.”
A. forget, forget
B. forgot, forgot
C. forget, forgot
D. forgot, forget
【陷阱】容易误选 A,认为“忘记”是现在的事。
【分析】仔细体会一下对话的语境:第一个人说“我忘记他的电话号码了”,这个“忘 记”应该是现在的情况,即现在忘记了,要不然就没有必要同对方说此话了,故第一空应 填 forget;第二个人说“我有他的号码,但我忘记带电话本了”,这个“忘记”应该是过去 的情况,即过去忘记带电话本,所以现在电话本不在身上(注意句中的转折连词 but),故 第二空应填 forgot,即答案选应 C。
2). Dear me! Just _________ at the time! I _________ no idea it was so late.
A. look, have
B. looking, had
C. look, had
D. looking, have
【陷阱】此题容易误选 D,认为第一空用现在分词表伴随,第二空填 have 的一般 现在时,以保持与前面时态的一致性。
【分析】其实,此题应选 C,第一空应填 look, 因为这是祈使句的谓语;第二空应 填 had,因为前一句说“看看时间吧”,这一看当然知道了现在很迟的情形,“不知道这么 迟了”显然应是“过去”的事,故应用一般过去时态,许多同学由于忽略这一隐含的语境而 误选。
7、情态动词
1). “Mike is often absent from class.” “Tell him he ____ answer for it if he goes on behaving like that.”
A. shall
B. will
C. would
D. can
【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】最佳答案选 A。shall 用作情态动词主要有以下两个用法: (1) 用于疑问句中征求意见。如: Shall I help you? 要不要我帮帮你? Shall I open the window? 要我把窗子打开吗? (2) 用于陈述句中表示允诺、告诫、警告、威胁、命令、规定、必然性等(可用于各 类人称)。如: You shall suffer for this. 你会为此事吃苦头的。(表威胁) Each competitor shall wear a number. 每个参赛者要戴一个号码。(表规定) You shall hear everything as soon as you come. 你一来就可听到所有情况了。(表允诺)
8、比较结构类
1). How beautifully she sings! I have never heard _________ voice.
A. a better
B. a best
C. the better
D. the best
【陷阱】容易误选 D,认为最高级前要用定冠词。
【分析】其实此题最佳答案为 A,该句可视为...I have never heard a better voice than her voice 之省略,全句句意为“她唱得多好啊!我从未听过她这么好的声音”。请再看以 下类似的实例: He is fine, never better. 他很好,比以往任何时候都好。 This bird is really lovely. I’ve never seen a finer one. 这只鸟真可爱,我从未见过这样 好看的鸟。
9、被动语态类
1). “Do you like the material?” “Yes, it _________ very soft.”
A. is feeling
B. felt
C. feels
D. is felt
【陷阱】此题容易误选 D,想当然地根据“这布料摸起来很柔软”这一句意,认为“布 料”应是“被摸”,所以 feel 选用被动语态。
【分析】其实,此题正确答案为 C,因为 feel 在此为连系动词,而连系动词均为不 及物动词,不能用于被动语态,尽管有时其汉语意思有被动意味。
