题型有:    3. LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGE
PART III  LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGEThere are twenty sentences in this section. Beneath each sentence there are four words, phrases or statements marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Choose one word, phrase or statement that best completes the sentence.

B.He always spoke so — slowly but energetically.
C.The question whether to confess it or not troubled him.
D.There is nothing to fear.
正确答案:D
解析:句子成分。A项同位语David and Chris之前带引导词,以表示该同位语与它所说明的同位成分之间的关系,如especially,particularly,chiefly,mostly等表示突出某点;B项副词so的同位语可以由副词担任,或由起同样句法作用的介词词组担任;C项不定式结构做名词词组the question的同位语是起说明作用的。D项是修饰语。 知识模块:语法词汇
2. Which of the following is NOT an imperative sentence?
A.You take that seat, and Ill take this one.
B.John listen to me.
C.Not so fast!
D.Isnt it a lovely view!
正确答案:D
解析:祈使句。第二人称祈使句使用时,有时为了强调对谁提出要求或发出指示,第二人称主语可以表示出来,这种主语要重读,如A项;B项是带主语的祈使句,不同于陈述句John li
stens to me.有些无动词结构,如C项,也是祈使句的一种省略形式;感叹疑问句是一种徒具形式的疑问句,一般用降调,书写时用感叹号,实质上是一种感叹句,如D项,故为本题答案。 知识模块:语法词汇
3. Though everyone_____you, I will not.
A.were to desert
B.was to desert
C.desert
D.deserted
正确答案:C
解析:虚拟语气。be一型虚拟句式可以用于由if,though,whatever,lest,so long as等连词引导的表示推测、让步、忧虑等含义的状语分句。这种用法如果出现在口语中则以动词陈述式、should/may+动词原形表示。故选C。 知识模块:语法词汇
4. Which of the following sentences expresses certainty?
A.Bad seeds must bring bad crops.
B.There must be a mistake.
C.You must be there by ten.
D.You must be joking.
正确答案:A
解析:情态动词。must在肯定陈述句中,可以表示说话人的主观意志,或要求对方必须做某事,如C项;也可以表示推测,指在说话人看来一定是、必然是,一般也只用于肯定陈述句,其后的不定式也可以用进行体,如C、Dr页。A项中,must表示“必然”,即根据逻辑推理必然要发生某事,意义等于will certainly,故为正确答案。 知识模块:语法词汇
5. The following are all stative verbs(静态动词)EXCEPT______.
A.cost
B.matter
C.get
D.hear
正确答案:C
