參考答案與解析
C
本句是一個主從復合句,主句含有情態動詞can,動作go還未發生,屬于將來時;因此,when引導的時間狀語從句要用現在時;當go動作發生時,finish動作已經完成了,故選 C。當然,空格出還可以用finish。如:
She will go to bed when she has done/ finishes her homework.
You can go to play football if you have finished your work.
C
此題考查need的用法,還要理清句子結構。that前是個主句,that引導的是個定語從句,其先行詞是a site,定語從句中謂語動詞應該用單數needs,many people think是插入語,空格處是謂語部分。插入語經常被出題人放在題目中,使句子復雜化,增加句子的難度,做題時可以把插入語去掉,便于理解句子結構。
need既可用作情態動詞也可用作行為動詞,主要用法如下:
?、僮髑閼B動詞時表示“需要;必須”,后面當然跟動詞原形,僅用于否定句或疑問句中,否定式是needn’t,在肯定句中一般用must, have to, ought to或should代替,如:
You needn’t buy the book.
—Need I finish the work today?
—Yes, you must.
?、?作行為動詞時,有時態、人稱和數的變化,后面跟to do,否定形式要用don’t/doesn’t/didn’t need,如:
He needs to finish it this evening.
③ need用作行為動詞時,后面還可以跟動名詞或名詞,此時含義跟need后面用不定式的含義不一樣?!皀eed +動名詞”含有被動意義,類似這樣的用法還有有want, require,如:
Our classroom needs cleaning. = Our classroom needs to be cleaned. 既可用作情態動詞也可用作行為動詞的還有dare。
B
考查情態動詞時態。 題干意思是“我沒料到你今天會來。你該事先打電話來”,表示“本沒料到”用過去時,后面用情態動詞+完成時表示對過去的虛擬,本來可以做某事而實際上沒有做。情態動詞+進行時表示目前正在進行的動作或狀態。
C
本題中的could也表示請求(而非表示過去時),語氣委婉,主要用于疑問句,不可用于肯定句,答語應該用can(即could不能用于現在時態的簡略答語中),如:
—Could I come to see you tomorrow morning?
—Yes, you can. (否定答語用No, I’m afraid not.)
A
前半句是虛擬語氣,“要不是我站在梯子下面接住你,你現在不會站在這里笑了”,表示的是現在的情況,用進行時。
A
情態動詞must可以表示“偏偏”的意思,是一種無可奈何的語氣,句子意思是“你為何偏要打斷我呢?”D
解本題一定要注意審題,要把題目看完整,才不會想當然選C,根據后文的for he always has good manners可以斷定“他不可能不打招呼就離開”,用can’t have left.
