特殊句式及其他
2011~2017课标区高考考点统计 考情解读
年份数量考点 20172017 2011 合计
从近几年高考试题分析可知,部分倒装是倒装句考查中的主体;强调句主要考查强调句的基本结构;省略句主要和非谓语动词一块考查;主谓一致常常和动词的时态、语态一起考查。总的来说,特殊句式考查的综合性和情景性越来越强。
倒装句 6 6 5 17
强调句 3 3 4 10
省略句 2 2 0 4
主谓一致 3 2 2 7
反意疑问句 0 1 2 3
祈使句 1 2 2 5
感叹句 0 0 2 2
倒装句的五大句型:NAOSH
句型一:N代表none, neither, nor, not, never, hardly, little, seldom等否定词,以及由no构成的否定短语如at no time, by no means等置于句首的部分倒装
1.(2017·福建高考)Not until he went through real hardship ________ the love we have for our families is important.
A.had he realized B.did he realize
C.he realized
D.he had realized
解析:选B 考查倒装和动词的时态。句意:直到他经历了真正的困难他才意识到对家人的爱的重要性。not until位于句首时,后面的句子采用部分倒装结构;同时,realize这一动作发生在“经历”之后,此处不表示“过去的过去”,故用一般过去时。
2.(2017·江苏高考)“Never for a second,” the boy says, “________ that my father would come to my rescue.”
A.I doubted
B.do I doubt
C.I have doubted
D.did I doubt
解析:选D 考查倒装和时态。句意:这个男孩说:“我从来没有怀疑过我爸爸会来救我。”表示否定意义的短语never for a second位于句首,句子需要部分倒装,根据句意可知男孩是在回忆父亲救他时的情景,因此用一般过去时态,答案为D。
3.(2017·辽宁高考)At no time ________ the rules of the game.It was unfair to punish them.
A.they actually broke
B.do they actually break
B.did they actually break
D.they had actually broken
解析:选C 考查倒装句。at no time意为“决不,根本不”。当含有否定词的介词短语位于句首时,句子要用部分倒装形式。另外,句子中的was表明空白处说的是过去的情况,所以选C。
句型二:A代表as/though,表示“虽然,尽管”,引导让步状语从句时用部分倒装
(2009·重庆高考)Unsatisfied________with the payment, he took the job just to get some work experience.
A.though was he
B.though he was
C.he was though
D.was he though
解析:选B 考查倒装句。句意:虽然他对那份工作的报酬不满意,但是他为了得到一些工作经验还是接受了它。在让步状语从句中,可以将从句中的表语提前,构成“表语+though/as+主语+……”。
句型三:O代表only,“only+状语”置于句首时,句子用部分倒装
1.(2017·新课标全国卷Ⅱ)Only by increasing the number of doctors by 50 percent ________ properly in this hospital.
A.can be the patients treated
B.can the patients be treated
C.the patients can be treated
D.treated can be the patients
解析:选B 考查倒装。句意:只有增加50%的医生,病人才能在这家医院得到妥善治疗。only位于句首修饰介词短语时,句子要用部分倒装。
2.(2017·江西高考)Only when he apologizes for his rudeness ________ to him again.
A.I will speak
B.will I speak
C.do I speak
D.I speak
解析:选B 考查倒装和时态。句意:只有当他为他的粗鲁道歉时,我才会再和他说话。“only+状语或者状语从句”置于句首时,主句应用部分倒装;根据句意可知,主句应用一般将来时。
句型四:S代表so/such,so/such ... that ...结构中,当so/such位于句首时,其后的句子用部分倒装
(2009·山东高考)So sudden________that the enemy had no time to escape.
A.did the attack
B.the attack did
C.was the attack
D.the attack was
解析:选C 考查倒装结构。在so ...that结构中,“so+形容词/副词部分”位于句首时,主句的主谓一般采用部分倒装形式,如果谓语动词为be的一般现在时或一般过去时,则使用完全倒装形式。本句的正常语序为“The attack was so sudden that the enemy had no time to escape”,故选C项。
句型五:H代表here, there, now, then, out, in, up, down, away, on the wall, in the room等表示地点、时间或方位的副词或介词短语置于句首时,句子用全部倒装
1.(2010·陕西高考)John opened the door. There ________ he had never seen before.
A.a girl did stand
B.a girl stood
C.did a girl stand
D.stood a girl
解析:选D 考查完全倒装。副词there,here等位于句首,应用完全倒装句式。句意:约翰打开门,他从来没见过的一位女孩站在那儿。
2.(2010·重庆高考)At the meeting place of the Yangtze River and the Jialing River ________, one of the ten largest cities in China.
A.lies Chongqing
B.Chongqing lies
C.does lie Chongqing
D.does Chongqing lie
解析:选A 考查倒装。表示方位的介词短语At the meeting place of the Yangtze River and the Jialing River位于句首,故此处应该用全部倒装。
强调句解题的三大角度
角度一:掌握基本句式,以不变应万变
1.(2017·新课标全国卷Ⅱ)It was only after he had read the papers ________ Mr.Gross realized the task before him was extremely difficult to complete.
A.when
B.that
C.which
D.what
解析:选B 考查强调句型。句意:看到那些文件后,格罗斯先生才意识到他面前的任务完成起来是极其困难的。本题是强调句型,强调时间状语。注意It is/was ... that/who ...是强调句的标志,去掉后,句子依然完整。
2.(2010·四川高考)If you have a job, ________ yourself to it and finally you'll succeed.
A.do devote
B.don't devote
C.devoting
D.not devoting
解析:选A 考查特殊句型。本句为“祈使句+and+陈述句”句型;do是对谓语动词devote的强调。
强调句型的基本结构:It is/was + 被强调部分 + that/who + 其他部分。
[点津]
1.强调句的判别方法是:去掉It is/was和that/who后句子仍然完整。否则,不是强调句。
2.被强调的部分是时间或地点状语时,不用when或where而应用that。
It was in the park that Tom lost his watch.
3.强调谓语动词时在其前面加do/does/did。
He did write to you last week.
角度二:拓宽思维,注意变式与特殊形式
1.(2017·天津高考)It was not until near the end of the letter ________ she mentioned her own plan.
A.that
B.where
C.why
D.when
解析:选A 考查强调句型。句意:直到将近信的结尾她才提及了自己的计划。本题的题干为强调句型,被强调部分为not until near the end of the letter,故选A。
2.(2011·四川高考)Was it on a lonely island______he was saved one month after the boat went down?
A.where
B.that
C.which
D.what
解析:选B 考查强调句型。强调句的结构是:“It is/was+被强调的部分+that/who+句子的其他部分”,表示“正是……”或“就是……”。强调句型的一般疑问句结构:Is/Was it ...that/who ...?
1.变式是指强调句型的疑问句形式,以及疑问句作宾语。试比较:
It was in the park that he met our new teacher.
→Was it in the park that he met our new teacher?
→Where was it that he met our new teacher?
→I want to know where it was that he met our new teacher.
2.特殊形式是指对not until ...的强调。试比较:
It was not until I came here that I realized this place was famous for not only its beauty but also its weather.(2017·湖南高考)
→I didn't realize this place was famous for not only its beauty but also its weather until I came here.
角度三:擦亮“火眼金睛”,识别“变形金刚”
变形一:强调句型与状语从句
(2011·福建高考)It was April 29, 2011 ______Prince William and Kate Middleton walked into the palace hall of the wedding ceremony.
A.that
B.when
C.since
D.before
解析:选B 考查语从句。学生易误认为该句为强调句而选that,但去掉 It was及 that后,April 29,2011 不可以单独作时间状语,所以不是强调句型。用 when 引导语从句。
注意区别强调句型和状语从句。试比较:
①It was at midnight that I got back home yesterday.
昨天午夜我回到了家里。(强调句)
It was midnight when/before I got back home yesterday.
当我昨天回到家里时,已经是午夜了。/昨天我还没到家就到了午夜了。(状语从句)
②It was two years ago that I began to learn English.
我是在两年前开始学英语的。(强调句)
It is two years since I began to learn English.
我学英语两年了。(状语从句)
变形二:强调句型与定语从句
(2011·重庆高考)—Have you seen the film Under the Hawthorn Tree?
—Of course, I have.It was in our village______it was made.
A.that
B.where
C.when
D.which
解析:选A 考查强调句型。 问话人询问对方是否看过《山楂树之恋》这部电影, 答话人回答说当然看过, 这部电影是在自己的村庄拍摄的。 本句是强调句,被强调的部分是地点状语in our village。
注意区别强调句型和定语从句。试比较:
①It was the room where the important meeting was once held.(定语从句)
②It was in the room that the important meeting was once held.(强调句)
省略句的两大命题热点
热点一:状语从句的省略
1.(2017·江西高考)If ________ to look after luggage for someone else, inform the police at once.
A.asked
B.to ask
C.asking
D.having asked
解析:选A 考查非谓语动词。句意:如果有人要求为他照看行李,请马上报警。根据inform the police可知,ask和其逻辑主语之间是动宾关系,所以用ask的过去分词形式。完整的句子是“If you are asked to look after luggage for someone else, inform the police at once.”。
2.(2017·浙江高考)There are some health problems that, when ________ in time, can become bigger ones later on.
A.not treated
B.not being treated
C.not to be treated
D.not having been treated
解析:选A 考查省略。句意:有一些健康问题,如果不及时处理,过些时候会变成比较严重的问题。when not treated in time是when some health problems are not treated in time的省略。
在状语从句中,如果主从句主语一致或从句的主语是it,且从句中含有be动词,可以将从句的主语和be动词一起省略。
①He never speaks unless (he is) spoken to.
除非跟他说话,否则他从不说话。
②He stood at the gate as if (he was) to say something.
他站在门口好像要说什么。
③All the photographs in this book, unless (they are) stated otherwise, date from the 1950s.(2017·陕西高考)
这本书里所有的照片,除非有说明的,否则,都要追溯到20世纪50年代。
热点二:不定式的省略
(2017·新课标全国卷Ⅰ)The driver wanted to park his car near the roadside but was asked by the police ________.
A.not to do
B.not to
C.not do
D.do not
解析:选B 考查省略。句意:那名司机想把车停靠在路边,但是警察不允许他这样做。为了避免重复,常常省略与前文相同的部分,只保留不定式符号to。补充完整后应为“was asked by the police not to park his car near the roadside”。
在动词不定式结构中,为了避免重复,常常省略不定式结构中的动词,只保留to。
①I asked him to see the film, but he didn't want to.
②—Will you join the game?
—I'd be glad to.
[点津] 如果承前省略的不定式中含有be或have时,be和have不能省略。
①—Are you a doctor?
—No, but I used to be.
②—He hasn't finished the work.
—But he ought to have.

A.when was it
B.when was it that
C.when it was

解析:选D 句意:“我想知道到底什么时候布莱克先生改变主意参加这项活动的。”“他听了金先生的演讲之后。”此处强调句型的特殊疑问句充当宾语从句,应选D。
7.(2017·成都石室中学考前模拟)—Where did you meet your old friend?
—It was in the supermarket ________ I was doing some shopping with my husband.
A.that
B.where
C.when
D.which
解析:选B 句意:“你在什么地方遇见老朋友的?”“是在我和丈夫一起买东西的超市。”把两句合起来应是It was in the supermarket ________ I was doing some shopping with my husband that I met my old friend.,空格内引导定语从句并在从句中作地点状语,故用where。
8.(2017·长春市高三二模)Jerry has promised to keep the secret, so he won't tell anyone even though ________.
A.asking to
B.to be asked
C.to ask
D.asked to
解析:选D 句意:Jerry答应保守秘密,因此他不会告诉任何人,即使别人问也不会。考查省略句,补全应为even though (he was) asked to (tell the secret)。
主谓一致的两大关注点
关注点一:连接词与主谓一致
1.(2017·福建高考)The famous musician, as well as his students, ________ to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2017 Taipei Flower Expo.
A.were invited B.was invited
C.have been invited
D.has been invited
解析:选B 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:那位著名的音乐家和他的学生被邀请在2017年台北花博会的开幕式上演出。首先,结合句意可知应用一般过去时描述过去的行为;其次,as well as连接两个并列主语时,谓语动词应和前面的主语保持人称和数的一致,本句谓语应与the famous musician一致,用第三人称单数形式,故选B。
2.(2017·江苏高考)Generally, students' inner motivation with high expectations from others ________ essential to their development.
A.is
B.are
C.was
D.were
解析:选A 考查主谓一致和时态。从题干可以看出本题的主语是students' inner motivation,因此谓语动词用单数形式。根据题中的Generally可知应用一般现在时态。故选A。
3.(2017·湖南高考)The university estimates that living expenses for international students ________ around $8,450 a year, which ________ a burden for some of them.
A.are; is
B.are; are
C.is; are
D.is; is
解析:选A 考查主谓一致。句意:那所大学估计,对国际学生来说,一年的生活开销大约是8 450美元,这对其中一些学生来说是一个负担。第一空的主语是living expenses,故谓语动词用复数形式;第二空的主语是which,指代的是前面整个句子,因此谓语动词用单数。
1.就近原则:由or, either ... or ..., neither ... nor ..., not only ... but also ...等连接两个或两个以上的并列主语时,采用就近一致原则,即谓语动词和与它最近的主语在人称和数上保持一致。
Either you or I am going to be in charge of this matter.
2.就远原则:主语部分包括as well as, rather than, but, except, with, together with, along with等连接其他名词时,谓语动词的形式应与前面的主语保持一致。
Tom as well as two of his friends was invited to the party.
3.意义一致原则:“no/each/every/many a+单数名词+and+no/each/every/many a+单数名词”作主语,谓语动词用单数。
Every man and every woman has a good reason to be proud of the work done by their fathers.
关注点二:分数/不定量词作主语时的两种情况
1.(2011·安徽高考)The factory used 65 percent of the raw materials, the rest of which ______ saved for other purposes.
A.is
B.are
C.was
D.were
解析:选D 考查主谓一致和时态。句意:这家工厂使用了65%的原材料,其余的节省下来以作他用。后半句中的
the rest of which 中的which 指的是raw materials, 所以谓语动词用复数,再结合前半句中的时态可判断D项正确。
2.(2011·湖南高考)Onethird of the country ________ covered with trees and the majority of the citizens ________black people.
A.is; are
B.is; is
C.are; are
D.are; is
解析:选A 考查主谓一致。 句意:这个国家的三分之一被树覆盖,而且大多数公民是黑人。在第一空中,onethird of the country 指“一个国家的三分之一”, 后面的谓语动词应用单数形式。在第二空中,the majority 后面的citizens 为复数意义,故谓语动词用复数形式。
1.the rest, all, most, the majority, 百分数、分数等指代名词或代词作主语时,谓语动词与名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。
①About 60% of the work was done yesterday.
②About one third of the students in our class are from the countryside.
2.由a kind of, kinds of, an amount of, amounts of, a quantity of, quantities of跟名词或“名词+ of this kind”等作主语时,谓语动词与of之前的名词保持一致。
①This kind of apples tastes good and sells well.
②Apples of this kind taste good and sell well.
反意疑问句、祈使句和感叹句的三大注意点
注意点一:反意疑问句用于主从复合句中,疑问句一般应与主句的主谓语保持一致,但如果主句的主语是第一人称时,疑问句一般应与从句的主谓语保持一致
1.(2017·江苏高考)There is little doubt in your mind that he is innocent, ________?
A.is there
B.isn't there
C.is he
D.isn't he
解析:选A 考查反意疑问句。陈述部分中含有表示否定意义的词little,所以反意疑问句用肯定形式,首先排除B、D两项;陈述部分为there be句型,故反意疑问句应用is there,故选A项。
2.(2011·上海高考)It doesn't matter if they want to come to your party, ________?
A.doesn't it
B.does it
C.don't they
D.do they
解析:选B 题干中主句为It doesn't matter,反意疑问句应与主句保持一致,故选B项。
3.(2011·重庆高考)I told them not everybody could run as fast as you did, ________?
A.could he
B.didn't I
C.didn't you
D.could they
解析:选B 考查反意疑问句。 句意:我告诉他们并非每个人都可以跑得和你一样快,不是吗?在反意疑问句中,若陈述部分是一个主从复合句,附加疑问句一般要与主句一致。本句含有一个宾语从句且主句为“ I told them ...”, 故答案选B项。
注意点二:祈使句做题的关键是弄清是祈使句还是非谓语动词作状语,主要句型“祈使句+and/or+陈述句”
1.(2017·重庆高考)Before you quit your job, ________ how your family would feel about your decision.
A.consider
B.considering
C.to consider
D.considered
解析:选A 考查祈使句。前面是Before引导的时间状语从句,故后面是主句。分析题干可知此处是省略了主语you的祈使句。故选A项。
2.(2017·北京高考)________ at the door before you enter my room, please.
A.Knock
B.Knocking
C.Knocked
D.To knock
解析:选A 考查祈使句。句意:在你进入我的房间之前,请先敲门。本句是祈使句,所以用动词原形。
3.(2011·山东高考)Find ways to praise your children often,________you'll find they will open their hearts to you.
A.till
B.or
C.and
D.but
解析:选C 考查句式结构。这是一个“祈使句+and +陈述句”结构。句意:经常找一些方法表扬你的孩子们,你会发现他们将会向你敞开心扉。后面的陈述句表达的是前面祈使句顺承的结果,所以用and。如果陈述句表达的是与前面祈使句相反的结果,则用or。
注意点三:感叹句的两种基本模式:What+ (a/an) +(形容词)+名词(主语+谓语)!与How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!应注意感叹句作动词宾语时的情况
1.(2011·辽宁高考)________ a strange plant! I've never seen it before.
A.Which
B.What
C.How
D.Whether
解析:选B 考查感叹句。句意:多么奇怪的植物啊!我以前从没见过。此处为“What+a/an +adj. + n. +it is/was”的省略结构,故B项正确。
2.(2011·北京高考)The shocking news made me realize ________ terrible problems we would face.
A.what
B.how
C.that
D.why
解析:选A 考查名词性从句。句意:这个惊人的消息使我意识到我们将面临多么严重的问题。结合句意可知答案为A,此处what 引导的宾语从句是一个感叹句。
形容词和副词比较等级及倍数表达法的两大考点
考点一:形容词和副词比较等级(包括比较级和最高级)
比较等级的常见句型
1.(2017·新课标全国卷)Tony can hardly boil an egg, still ________ cook dinner.
A.less
B.little
C.much
D.more
解析:选A 考查习惯用语。句意:托尼几乎不会煮鸡蛋,更何况做饭呢。still less意为“何况,更不用说”,符合句意。
2.(2017·新课标全国卷)It may not be a great suggestion. But before ________ is put forward, we'll make do with it.
A.a good one
B.a better one
C.the best one
D.a best one
解析:选B 考查形容词比较级。句意:它或许不是一个好建议,但在更好的建议被提出之前,我们先凑合一下。此处暗含比较,表示“一条更好的建议”,是泛指,故选B。
3.(2017·江西高考)There are a small number of people involved, possibly ________ twenty.
A.as few as
B.as little as
C.as many as
D.as much as
解析:选A 考查固定搭配。句意:只有少数人被卷入进来,可能只有20人。as few as“只有(用于强调数量出乎意料得少)”,符合句意。
4.(2017·天津高考)I think watching TV every evening is a waste of time —there are ________ meaningful things to do.
A.less
B.more
C.the least
D.the most
解析:选B 考查形容词的比较级。句意:我认为每天晚上看电视是浪费时间,因为有更有意义的事可以去做。根据句意可知,此处应用meaningful的比较级形式,故选B。
比较等级的常见句型有:
(1)两者比较,用“比较级+than”表示。
(2)表示“两者之间较……的那个”用“the+比较级+n.+ of the two +n.”。
(3)表示“越……,就越……”用“the+比较级,the+比较级”。
(4)as+adj./adv.原级+as ...表示“和……一样”。
(5)not as/so+adj./adv.原级+as ...表示“不如……”。

我很少见到妈妈像现在这样对我的进步感到满意。
③I'm not a little tired today after giving the room a thorough cleaning and I have never had as tiring a day as today.
我今天把房间彻底打扫完之后感到非常疲惫,从未像今天这样疲惫过。
比较等级前常用的修饰语
(2017·辽宁高考)This is by far ________ movie that I have ever seen.
A.an inspiring
B.a much inspiring
C.the most inspiring
D.the more inspiring
解析:选C 考查形容词的比较等级。句意:这是我曾看过的最鼓舞人心的电影了。by far可用于修饰形容词或副词的比较级或最高级。根据that从句的描述可知,应该选择C项,即用最高级形式。“the+比较级”常常要与由of构成的短语连用。
比较等级前常用的修饰语有:a little, a bit, slightly, much, a lot, a great deal, any, far, by far, even, still等。
—The film is, I have to say, not a bit interesting.
—Why? It's far more interesting than the films I have ever seen.(2011·江西高考)
——我不得不说这部电影一点意思也没有。
——为什么?它比我以前看过的所有电影都有趣多了。
否定词+比较级=最高级
(2011·江西高考)—How was your recent trip to Sichuan?
—I've never had________one before.
A.a pleasant
B.a more pleasant
C.a most pleasant
D.the most pleasant
解析:选B 考查形容词比较级的用法。否定词加比较级往往表示最高级的概念。如:He couldn't have done better.他做得再好不过了。句意:“你最近的四川之行怎么样?”“再好不过了。”故选B。
“否定词+比较级”表达最高级含义:
Mr. Stevenson is great to work for — I really couldn't ask for a better boss.(2011·全国卷Ⅱ)
为斯蒂文森先生工作感觉非常好,我真的找不到比他更好的老板了。
擦亮“火眼金睛”,识别出“隐藏”的比较等级

A.some
B.less
C.much
D.more
解析:选D 考查比较级。句意:很多人捐献了那种血型的血,然而,血库还需要更多(那种血)。根据句意可判断,应用表示肯定意义的比较级形式。故D项正确。
比较等级的其他表达法:

结果对我们来说并不是非常重要,但如果我们确实赢了,那就更好了(在赢与不赢两者之间比较)。
