近,TOEFL版出現(xiàn)了一個非常熱心且水平很高的JJ,SUNNYZW以她對TOEFL考試題目的精確理解,無怨無輝的為大家解決問題。SUNNY不肯做斑竹,(我說破啦都),在這里大的心愿就是早日成為超級會員。(有問題的XDJM有福啦,這就說明她會一直熱心的幫大家回答題目,尤其是語法的各類問題)作為TOEFL的斑竹,跟SUNNY比起來,很慚愧沒能為大家詳細解答題目問題,在這里,我能為大家做的就是整理了SUNNY6月所有為大家解答的TOEFL語法題,希望對考友們有用。讓我們對SUNNY說一聲謝謝,也希望大家能夠一如既往的支持寄托。
13.An activist for women's (rights), Leonora O'Reilly promoted women'svocational training (besides) fought for (increased) wages for garmentworkers.
答案:D。為什么不選B。besides只有副詞和介詞兩種詞性,而這里卻充當連詞。怎么會是正確的呢?
SUNNY回答:應該是besides錯誤。increased在這里是過去分詞作定語,沒有錯的。這里雖然是用increasing這個動名詞更好,但是besides的錯誤有些荒唐了。
......theories approximate the truth is the day-to-day business of science.

chlorofluorocarbons find their home.

(B) emissions are released by cars
(C) cars that release emissions
(D) releasing from car emissions
SUNNY回答:
1。選a,動名詞作主語,前兩天剛剛討論過的??匆幌虑懊娴奶影?。
2。選c。過去分詞短語作主語的補足語的。一個歪門邪道的辦法,我不建議用的,但是考試沒有辦法的時候可以一試,就是見到believe或者belief就去找后面直接跟著that的選項。(當我沒說過,呵呵)
3。選b。when后面,要么是從句,要么是doing。在本題中,符合要求的只有b、d。但是d中releasing與主語的關(guān)系看,應該是用過去分詞released by的。所以不選。
1. Eli Whitney, born in Westborough, Massachusetts (in) 1765, was alwaysinterested in machines , (working) in his father's shop, (taking) apart (awatch) and putting them back together.
SUNNY回答:從后面得putting them可見,watch應該用復數(shù)。數(shù)的一致問題。
2. To reach (a target) of (spending) a billion dollars (in a) lifetime, ahuman being would have to spend money (at rate) of more than 50,000 dollarsper day.
SUNNY回答:at a rate of
3. (While) the term (originates) to mean "a woman spinner", any older womanthat (devoted herself)
to work by (not choosing) to get married was given this term in the 17thcentury.
SUNNY回答:注意看一下后面的時態(tài)是was,顯然a現(xiàn)在時是時態(tài)不一致的。
4.Some companies provide other organisations with (core list) of theirclients (whose) products
may be (of interest) to (them)
SUNNY回答:core list前面缺少一個冠詞。
7、( ) theories approximate the truth is the day-to-day vusiness ofscience.
A Determining how closely
B How closely to determine
C How one determines closely
D One is close to determining
問:前面是主語從句做主語嗎?答案是A,可那樣的話,closely是副詞不能修飾名詞theroies呀?
答:B,how to do. how后面的to是不定式符號,而非介詞.所以B不對。
選A,動名詞加從句引導詞構(gòu)成句子的主語,determining后面跟的是一個how引導的賓語從句, approximate是從句謂語. closely不是修飾theroies,而是修飾全句的。
我認為這道題應該選A,因為A中的closely修飾approximate,請大家指教!
SUNNY回答:這道題的答案應該是A,Determining how closely theories approximatethe truth是整個句子的主語,動名詞短語作主語。Determing is business是句子主干。這里closely的確是修飾approximate這個動詞的。
13、In many areas the slope and topography of the land _____ excessrainfall to run off into a natural outlet.
(A) neither permit
(B) without permitting
(C) nor permitting
(D) do not permit.
問:excess是胃語,還有缺胃語呢?我選的B但答案是D.
答:excess在這里作名詞講,過度,過剩的意思。所以本題缺謂語,A中,neither與nor連用,在這里沒有nor. B不能做謂語,C也是沒有Neither與之連用。
我對這道題有些迷惑,我認為恰當?shù)氖茿,因為neither也可以單獨使用表示兩者都否定,例如Neither statement is true.
SUNNY回答:這道題B無論如何都是不正確的。退一步說,就算neither permit在句子中可以,neither這個詞作主語的時候也有一個基本要求,就是后面的謂語動詞用單數(shù)的。前面玫瑰的講解完全正確的啊。
1. (Approximately) one-third of (all persons) involved in adult educationprograms in 1970 (were enrolled) in occupational education (course).
我選的是B,但是答案是D,應該改為courses,解釋是職業(yè)教育課程不會只是一門課,可是我覺得這個解釋很牽強呀。而且我覺得B的person是特指的“involved in adult educationprograms in 1970”的person,所以我覺得應該把B改為all the person.大家覺得呢?
SUNNY回答:首先all persons和all the persons所指是相同的,托福也不考察這里多一個少一個the的意思區(qū)別問題,所以考試的時候不要在這種地方多想。course是一定要用復數(shù)的,不管在意思上,如你上面分析,還是在語法要求上。
2.Xenon has a number of applications,____may be mentioned its use in flashlamps for high-speed photography.
(A)among which
(B)which
(C)and which
(D)each of which
答案是A,請問D為什么不對?
SUNNY回答:among which是沒有問題的,但是整個句子其實還有問題。問了一下老外,同意我的看法,覺得應該是among which may be mentioned is its use in flash lampsfor high-speed photography.中間有一個is句子就顯得完整了。樓主再看一眼題目好嗎?如果原題就是那個樣子的,我也puzzle啦。
1--in her time,Isadora Duncan was----today a liberated woman.
a calling what we would
b who would be calling
c what we would call
d she would call it
看后面是woman,是不是就應該是選人的代詞啊?
SUNNY回答:這道題不用想這么多的。是考了5、6次的一個what句式。關(guān)于what,兩個句式一定記住what we call及其變形,what is now。它們前面的先行詞可能是人可能是物可能是地點,但都是用what指代。
31.The (taller) of all animals, a (full-grown) giraffe (may be) eighteenfeet or (more high).
答案:A。我覺得選A有道理,將taller改為tallest。但D為什么是正確的呢?不應該是higher么?
SUNNY回答:呵呵,這個問題我知道你一定很郁悶啊。我前面有提到過,對于托福中的比較級高級,只要它級別沒有用錯,形式有時候只好睜只眼閉只眼嘍。這個是我舉的例子之一。另外的題目還有00年1月后一題中的most perfect,按照語法書所說,這兩種說法都是錯誤的,可是有什么辦法哪?ets就是牛啊。
考試的時候,如果你可以確定一個主要矛盾,即,絕對屬于時態(tài)、語態(tài)、還有級別錯誤的,其它形式上的錯誤就不要來困擾你啦。
39.(Generally), abstract expressionist art is without recognizable images(and does) not (adhere) the limits of conventional (form).
答案:C。應該改為adhere to.但D我認為也不正確,因為單數(shù)名詞不能單獨存在,所以我認為應該是forms.
SUNNY回答:是的。我是那一年考的,偏偏考的時候大腦缺血,恍惚中拿不準adhere to的問題了,于是和D搞了半天。但一缺點adhere是不及物動詞,我立刻就放棄D了。關(guān)于冠詞,有時候在英語中只要是解釋為“虛”詞或者是“類別”詞,很容易就會不用的??墒菃栴}是,我們往往吃不準它什么時候是這樣的。我也唏噓不已啊。
