[考題5] One of the sides of the board should be painted yellow, and ____. (2000北京、安徽春)
A. the other is white B. another white
C. the other white D. another is white
[答案] C
[解析] 特指木板的另一側(cè)應(yīng)使用定冠詞the，因此首先要排除表示泛指意義的選項B和D；又因為A選項不能表示出與前面分句一致的被動的動作，因此要進一步排除選項A而選出C。本題下劃線處采用了the other white的形式，這屬于為避免重復(fù)而出現(xiàn)的省略句，其完整形式為“the other of the sides of the board should be painted white”。
[考題6] The research is so designed that once ____ nothing can be done to change it. (2002)
A. begins B. having begun C. beginning D. begun
[答案] D
[解析] once后省略了it（指前面剛被提及的the research） is，下劃線表示一個“（研究）被開始、被啟動”的被動的動作，應(yīng)該采用過去分詞的形式，因此本題選D。注意：本題題干中省略的it/the research is是順承上文而自然進行的省略，被省略后仍可以很清楚地把握，而且使得整個句子更為簡練。
[考題7] He speaks English well indeed, but of course not ____ a native speaker. (2004上海)
A. as fluent as B. more fluent than
C. so fluently as D. much fluently than
[答案] C
[解析] but在本題中作并列連詞連接兩個分句，后一分句屬于省略句，后一分句中為了避免重復(fù)省略了主句中的主語he和比較狀語從句中的謂語speaks English，由此可以看出題干中在對he和a native speaker說英語的程度進行比較。說英語的程度的比較應(yīng)選用副詞fluently，應(yīng)首先排除選項A、B；much fluently than中than前面沒有出現(xiàn)fluently的比較級的形式，應(yīng)進一步排除選項D而選出C。
[考題] No matter how frequently ____, the works of Beethoven still attract people all over the world. (2006廣東)
A. performed B. performing C. to be performed D. being performed
[答案] A
[解析] 題干中讓步狀語從句的原型為no matter how frequently they are performed（無論這些作品是如何經(jīng)常地被表演），其中的they are可以省略。
