命题意图:此题考查not在宾语从句中的替代性省略。此题属四星级题。
知识依托:so可代替某些动词后的宾语从句,但绝不能用it或that。这些常用的动词有:believe,be afraid,expect,hope,imagine,suppose等。例:
Is she going to the party tonight?
I think so./I hope so.
其否定有两种:①动词用否定结构。
②用not代替so。
又如:Do you think he will pass the exam?
I dont think so./I think not.前者更常用。
错解分析:A项应为I dont believe so。
C项否定也应否定谓语。
解题方法与技巧:根据具体语言环境,正确运用表达观点的方法。
答案:D

A.If it is not B.Were it not

命题意图:旨在考查虚拟条件中if的省略。此题属五星级题。
知识依托:跟过去事实相反的虚拟条件句结构为If+主语+had+过去分词,主语+would/could/might do当if省略时,将had提主句首,即
Had+主语+过去分词,主语+would/could/might do
错解分析:A项不是虚拟语气结构。
B项是跟现在事实相反的虚拟条件句。
D项是跟将来事实相反的虚拟条件句。
解题方法与技巧:从题干的后一句话入手,可看出I would not have gone to是跟过去事实相反的虚拟条件句,故答案为C。译为:要不是因为票是免费的,我也就不会经常去看电影了。
答案:C
3.You ought to have given them some advice.
________,but who cared what I asked?
A.So it was B.So I ought to have
C.So I did D.So I ought to
命题意图:考查ought to后作宾语的不定式的省略。此题属五星级题。
知识依托:ought to, want, hope等动词后可省略作宾语的不定式短语,但该宾语若是be动词或动词的完成时,则需在to后加be或have。
Are you a soldier?
No,but,wish to be(a soldier).
答案:B

(NMET 2002)

命题意图:此题考查省略在状语从句中的应用。此题属四星级题。
知识依托:当主句的主语和状语从句主句一致(或从句主语为it),且从句中含be,可把从句的主语和be一起省略,例:
I wonder why he didnt do as(he was) told to.
错解分析:A、B、C项都为主动,而research应是由人启动的,应用被动。
解题方法与技巧:此类词,应分清主、被动关系。
答案:D
●锦囊妙计

1.感官动词或使役动词(如:notice,hear,let,make)等后接不定式作宾补时省略to,被动时to不能省略。

4.应注意状语从句、定语从句中的省略。
状语从句中,如果谓语含动词be,主语又与主句主语一致或主语是it,从句中主语和be一齐省略。
