将某物传交给某人,继续前进;pass by从旁边经过;pass off消失;pass through穿过练:The custom has been _from generation to generation.A.passed away B.passed downC.passed by D.passed off提示:根据句子意思分析,此处用pass

American presidents,_him.A.after;in honour of B.for;in favor ofC.after;in praise of D.for;in place of提示:根据句意和短语搭配作出选择。“华盛顿市是为了纪念美国的一个总统而以他的名字来命名的。”name after 根据来命名,in honor of 纪念。答案:A句型1.强调句式讲:It was

the Beagle to the Galapagos Isles that gave him the key to his new theory.达尔文乘“小猎犬号”去加拉帕戈斯群岛的活动使他获得了创建新理论的钥匙。强调句型的结构为:It

that matters not where you come from or what you are.重要的是做这项工作的能力,而不是你来自哪里,是干什么的。It was for this reason that her uncle moved out of New York and settled down in a small

say?你想让我说的到底是什么?链接提示特别要注意强调句型和定语从句的区别。强调句型可在不增加任何成分的前提下还原成陈述句结构,而定语从句不可。在没有把握时可以进行句型的转换,来确定是什么句型,据此选用正确的引导词。练:(1)(2020;2020成都诊断检测) Whether you believe it or not,it is_ that causes your illness.A.because of your overweight B.your being overweightC.because you are overweight D.you are so overweight提示:本题考查非谓语动词结构作主语的用法。从句子结构分析,此处为强调主语的强调句型结构,句子的谓语为causes,所以使用v.-ing形式作主语。答案:B(2)(2020;2020华南师大附中综合测试) It was with great joy_ he received the news_ his lost daughter had been found.A.because;that B.since;whichC.for;about D.that;that提示:本题考查名词性从句和强调句型的区别用法。第一个that构成强调句型,第二个 that引导同位语从句,说明news的具体内容。答案:D2.although 引导让步状语从句讲:请观察下面教材原句:Although his experiments were designed to support the ideas concerning the influence of environment upon plants,he found that many characteristics were passed on from one generation to the next,without influence by the environment.虽然他的试验目的是为了验证环境对植物的影响,但是他却发现许多特性是代代相传的,并不受环境的影响。although引导让步状语从句,表示“虽然”。although引导的从句不能与but,however连用,但可以与yet,still连用。例:Although it was snowing,it was not very cold.尽管下着雪,但并不冷。I was late for the last train although I hurried.虽然我拼命赶路,还是没搭上最后一班火车。链接提示注意比较although和though的区别:though,although均引导让步状语从句,意为“虽然”,although较正式,though较常用。though还可以与别的词结合使用,如even though,as though,而although则不能这样搭配。though可以用作副词位于句尾,作“但是、不过”解,还可以用在倒装句中,although不可。练: _I prefer a color TV,I have decided to buy a black and white one this time.A.When B.Although C.Because D.If提示:本题考查状语从句的连词用法。根据句子的意思分析,此处应该表示让步,“尽管还是”,所以使用although。答案:B辨析1.look out for,look out两个短语都可以表示“当心”,look out表达此意思时,为不及物动词短语,而look out for后面必须跟名词或代词作宾语。look out往外看;当心;挑选He stood at the window and looked out(at the view).他站在窗前向外望(观看景色)。Look out! 当心!He looked out some books for a friend in hospital.他为住院的朋友选一些书。look out for 当心;留意Look out for cars when crossing the street.过街时当心车辆。即时练习:_your step,or you might fall into the water.A.Look out B.Take care C.Mind D.Notice提示:此句为“脚下留意”的意思。look out,take care后不能直接跟宾语。答案:C2.expense,costexpense n. “花费;代价;费用”,表示“花费的钱”时为可数名词。短语at sb.s expense由某人付钱;at great/little/no expense 花费很大很小没有花费;at the expense of在损失的情况下。expensive adj.昂贵的cost n. “价钱;价格;费用”,这时和expense通常可以换用,cost还可以表示“代价、损失”。短语at the cost of=at the expense of;at cost的意思为“按成本价格”;at all costs不惜一切代价。即时练习:(1)Most children in Britain are educated at the public _.(2)I want the best you can supply;you need spare no _.(3)He finished the job at the_ of his health.(4)He had his book printed
