Teaching Crux: 1) SS’ explanation about the vocabulary and grammar

2) Teacher’s further explanation and supplement

Teaching materials & focuses:

14. 高考相关

1. (NMET 95) If you work with strong will, we can overcome any difficulty, ____ great it is.

A whatever B however C wherever D whenever

B. 本题考察让步状语从句,however 引导让步状语从句,一般构成however +adj./adv.+主语+谓语. 该句子还可以写成:no matter how great it is.

2. (NMET 97)It is generally considered unwise to give a child ___ he or she wants.

A however B whatever C whichever D whenever

B. 从属连词whatever 引导宾语从句,等于anything that he or she wants, 且在从句中做宾语,所以 A, D 不可选。 Whichever 指在“大范围”已经确定的情况下的任何一个, 而这句话并没有确定大范围,所以用whatever 表示“无论什么”。

3. (NMET 2002)Having a trip abroad is certainly good for the old couple, but it remains ____ whether they will enjoy it.

A to see B to be seen C seeing D seen

B. it 为形式主语, 真正的主语是whether 从句。 因为不定式表达的被动含义,所以应使用被动形式。

Teaching main-points: Vocabulary and grammar revision in the process of the integration between the teacher and the ss

Teaching Crux: 1) SS’ explanation about the vocabulary and grammar

2) Teacher’s further explanation and supplement

Teaching materials & focuses:

5、强调句型的两种变形形式:

一般疑问句形式:Is/ Was it … that…?

特殊疑问句形式:Who/ Whom /When/ When 等 + is/ was it that …? 如:

1)Was it in 1979 ______ the American astronaut succeeded ______ landing on the moon? (上海 94)

A. when; on B. that; on C. when; in D. that; in (Key: D)

2)Was ______ that I saw last night at the concert? (上海 95)

A. it you B. not you C. you D. that yourself (Key: A)

3)Who was it that you met in the street yesterday? 昨天你在街上遇到的是谁?

Where was it that you met Jack yesterday? 你昨天是在哪里遇到杰克的?

6、当强调的成分是表示时间或地点的介词短语时,如果去掉介词,句型会发生根本变化。试比较:

It was five o'clock in the afternoon _____ they climbed up to the top of the mountain.(NMET 96)

A.since B.when C.that D.until (Key: B)

该句为 when 所引导的时间状语从句,it 在句中表示时间。如在题干上加上介词 at,句子变成:It was at five o'clock in the afternoon _____ they climbed up to the top of the mountain.空格中只能填 that,为强调句。因为:高考原题目如果填 that,就应该是强调句,去掉 it,was,that,可以得到:They climbed up to the top of the mountain five o'clock in the afternoon. (不成立)所以高考原题不能填 that;而增加介词的句子可以改写为: They climbed up to the top of the mountain at five o'clock in the afternoon. 这是个完整的句子,所以填 that,为强调句。

七、另外两个与it 有关的常用句型

1、It is/ was /will be the + 序数词 + time that 从句。

该句型意为“这是/那是/这将是某人第某某次做某事了”。主句谓语动词用is时,从句用现在完成时;主句的谓语动词用was时,从句用过去完成时;主句的谓语动词用will be时,从句的谓语动词用一般现在时表示将来。如:

1)She understood what I was talking about, even though it was the first time we had spoken together. 尽管这是我们第一次在一起谈话,但是她明白我们在谈些什么。

注意:句型中 it 可以用this 或 that,time 可以用成 week,year,month 等边式时间的名词。如:

This is the first moth that/ year I have been here. 这是我在这儿的地一个月/第一个年头。

)It’s high time they realized the problem. (NMET 99) 是他们意识到问题的时候了。
