A.单句填空
1.Now it occurred to________(he) that his farm had much potential and that the death of the cow was a bit of luck.
答案 him [it occurred to sb. that...意为“某人突然想起……”。to为介词,后应用人称代词的宾格,故填him。]
2.Imagine you are a student and you share a flat with another student who you think isn't doing her share of the housework. If you say, “Look, you never do your share of the housework. ________ are you going to do about it?”, the discussion will very soon turn into an argument.
答案 What [分析句子结构可知,空处在句中表示疑问,而且作do的宾语,故用what。语境为:想像一下你是一位学生,与另一位不做家务的同学同住一所公寓。然后提出质问。]
3.They reached the top successfully, but on ________ way back conditions were very difficult.
答案 their/the [句意:他们成功登顶,但是在返程的路上却困难重重。名词前需限定词,根据句意可知,此处填形容词性物主代词their与主语保持一致。也可填定冠词the。]
4.When parents bring home a pet, their child gladly bathes ________ and brushes its fur.
答案 it [句意:当父母把一个宠物带回家时,他们的孩子高兴地给它洗澡并刷毛。根据句意可知,it指代上文中的a pet。]
B.单句改错
1.The quality of education in this small school is better than it in some larger schools.
________________________________________________________
答案 it→that [替代前面的the quality of education,但
不是同一个,故用that。]
2.The fruits are small in size, but juicy and tasty. There are so many that we often share it with our neighbors.
________________________________________________________答案 it→them [此处指代的是fruits,故用them。]
3.I looked down at this tiny girl and promised myself that somehow I would help him.
________________________________________________________
答案 him→her [此处指代的是this tiny girl,故用her。]
4.He is thought to have acted foolishly. Now he has no one but him to blame for losing the job.
________________________________________________________
答案 him→himself [根据句意可知,but的宾语与主语是同一个人,故用himself。]
易错题一:人称代词、反身代词的误用
[例1] Don't blame others! It's ______ who broke the window by accident while I was practicing volleyball.
[错解] me
[错因分析] 由于平时受“Who are you? It's me.”的影响,考生在此处容易误用me,认为此处需要用代词宾格作表语。
[答案] I
[心得体会]
[例2] Think ahead. The third part is that ants think summer all winter. During the winter, they remind
________,“This won't last long; we'll soon be out of here.”
[错解] us
[错因分析] 考生易忽略全文的语境,受下文we的影响,因此误用us。
[答案] themselves
[心得体会]
易错题二:由于对it的用法掌握不牢而犯错
[例1] You can depend on ________ that I will do what I can to help you with your English.
[错解] me
[错因分析] 考生可能不熟悉it作形式宾语的用法,碰到这样的题目不知道该填什么词。此题考查it作形式宾语的用法。此处it代替真正的宾语“that I will do what I can to help you with your English”。句意:你尽可以放心,我会尽力帮助你学英语的。
[答案] it
[心得体会]
[例2] He liked sitting beside a window when he was flying, so when he got onto the plane, he looked for a window seat. He found all of them already taken except one. There was a soldier sitting in the seat beside ________.
[错解] him
[错因分析] 考生看到这样的题目,很可能不分析句子结构就匆忙答题,仅根据本空所在句的“a soldier”而误填him。
[答案] it
