D. How come
答案:A
本题检测考生在实际情景中运用英语进行交际的能力。A、B、C三个选项考生比较熟悉,但是对How come这种说法并不熟悉,下面对How come在交际用语中以及其它一些用法进行归纳:
I. How come...?
How come是固定搭配,意为:怎么会......?怎么回事......?怎么搞的......?它和Why一样,可以用来引导一个问句。所不同的是,如果用How come来提问,就表示你觉得某件事很奇怪,有点想不通;并且,以How come开头的问句使用的仍是陈述句的语序。如:
How come you didn't tell me earlier ? (=Why didn't you tell me earlier ?) 你怎么不早点儿告诉我?
How come you didn't invite him to the party! He is your future boss. 你怎么没有邀请他参加晚会!他是你未来的老板。
另外,以How come开头的问句有时也可说成:How comes it (about) that... ? / How is it that... ? 如:
How comes it that you're so late? (=How is it that you're so late?) 你为什么来得这么迟?
II. What for?
What for... ? 是询问什么原因或目的,相当于:Why...? / For what purpose...? 如:
What do you need to borrow money for? I thought you had plenty of money. 你为什么需要借钱? 我本以为你有许多钱。
-Let's go and have a good drink tonight.
-________ Have you got the first prize in
the competition?
A. What for?
B. Thanks a lot.
C. Yes, I'd like to.
D. Why not?
答案: A
III. How about...? / What about... ?
1. 用来询问情况或打听消息等,意为:......怎么样?......如何?如:
How about your English exam yesterday? 你昨天的英语考得怎么样?
-How are you getting on with your work? 你工作情况如何?
-Not bad. What about you? 不错,你呢?
2. 用来提出请求、建议或征求对方意见,后面除跟sth. 外,还可跟动名词doing,意为:你认为......怎么样?......如何?如:
How about the two of us ________ a walk down the garden?
A. to take
B. take
C. taking
D. to be taking 答案: C
IV. Why not ?
Why not...? 用来向对方提出一个建议,意思是"何不......?" 它是一个省略形式的问句,相当于Why don't you / we...? 如:
Why not go home now? = Why don't you go home now? 你为什么现在不回家呢?
Why not go out for a walk? = Why don't we go out for a walk? 我们何不出去散散步呢?
注意:Why not后面必须接动词原形,即Why not do...? 如:
-I usually go there by train.
-Why not ________ by boat for a change?
A. to try going
B. trying to go
C. to try and go
D. try going
答案: D
V. If only...
If only意思是"但愿......;要是......就好了",常引导虚拟语气的条件句或感叹句,用来表示说话人对某事所寄予的某种强烈愿望,相当
于as long as。如:
If only I were as clever as you!要是我像你一样聪明该多好啊!
If only we had arrived in time, we would not have missed the train. 要是我们按时到,就不会误车了。
If only it would stop raining! 但愿雨停下来。
注意: only if 也引导条件状语从句,表示"只有......(才);只有在......的时候;唯一的条件是......"的意思;与if引起的条件句相比,语气更强。如:
He will succeed only if he does his best. 他只有尽力而为才能成功。
I'll come only if you really need me. 只有当你真正需要我的时候,我才来。
VI. What if?
What if...? 句型可用于两种情况:一是提出建议,问别人"意下如何,是否可行",相当于:What do you think if... ?二是用于询问将
来可能发生的事或面临的情况,表示恐惧、忧虑,有"万一"之意。如:
What if we go and see a film tomorrow night? 我们明晚去看电影好吗?
What if we get burgled while we're on holiday? 要是我们度假时家里被撬了怎么办?
What if I came tomorrow instead of this afternoon?如果我今天下午不来明天来你以为如何?
That was very clever, but what if the plan had failed. 那是很高明的,不过这个计划若是失败了,结果会怎么样呢?

1、keep ①keep + 形容词表示“保持” Please keep quite. 请保持安静。 ②keep + 宾语+ 形容词（或介词短语）表示“把……保持在某一状态” We must do everything we can to keep the air clean. 我们必须尽一切所能保持空气清洁。 ③keep sb doing sth 表示“让某人做某事” ——只能用现在分词作宾语补足语，不能用不定式。 He kept us waiting for two hours. 他让我们等了两个小时。 He kept us to wait for two hours. (错误) ④keep on doing sth和keep doing sth 表示“继续做某事，反复做某事”，可换用。 但keep on doing 更强调动作的反复性或做事人的决心。 He keeps on phoning me, but I don’t want to talk to him. Though he failed 3 times, he kept on trying. 他老是给我打电话，但我不想同他讲话。虽然他已失败了3次，但他仍继续干下去。 keep doing sth 经常用于静态动词。 He kept lying in bed all day long. 他整天都躺在床上。 ⑤keep …from doing sth 表示“阻止，使免于” He kept them from fishing in the lake. 他不让他们在那个湖里捕鱼。 2、may not / mustn’t / needn’t / wouldn’t ①may not be 是may be的否定式，意为“可能不是，也许不是” He may be there.他可能在那里。He may not be there.他可能不在那里。 ②must 意为“必须”，mustn’t 意为“千万不可，绝对不可” 所以Must we/I ……?的否定回答要用needn’t—意为“不必” -Must we get there before 11 o’clock？ -No, we needn’t. ③wouldn’t = would not 意为“不会，不愿” I wouldn’t say no. 3、do ①do表示“做”，做某事，常指某种不具体的活动；make表示“制作”，指做出某种具体的东西。

《小词小结》之《reason的用法小结》 首先强调一下,reason后why引导的不就是同位语从句,而就是定语从句。 1 reason + clause 1) reason+定语从句 a、关系副词充当定语从句的原因状语,可以用why或that 或省略。 The reason I called was to ask about the plans for Saturday、- Longman The reason why(或者that)he doesn’t come is that he i s ill、——《英汉大词典》 The reason that [why] he died was lack of medical care、——《用法词典》 That’s one of the reasons he always gets on my nerves、——《用法词典》 备注:关系副词可以用for which代替。 The first question is whether the reason for which Google
considered entering the wholesale broadband market in the first place still holds、 b、关系代词充当定语从句的主语或宾语,可以用that或which,与一般的定语从句用法相同。 What is the reason that he gave for this? What was the reason which led the slaves to leave the estates in British Guiana? 2) reason+同位语从句,用that引导。 We decided against installing new heating apparatus, for the reason that it would be too costly、 ——《用法词典》 She didn’t answer for the simple reason that she couldn’t think of anything to say、- Longman 2 reason + for/of/to(小品词) His reason for going back to school is to learn new things、- nhd、heinle、com People give many different reasons for wanting to change jobs、– Longman
pretend三种易混淆不定式的用法 今天给大家带来了pretend三种易混淆不定式的用法，我们一起来学习吧，下面就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。 pretend三种易混淆不定式的用法 1. pretend to do sth .这个短语的意思是假装(将要)去做什么事情，适用于将来时态动作将来假装要去做但不一定去做的状态。 举例: If youpretend to know what you dont know，youll only make afool of yourself.不懂装懂就会闹笑话。(suri的回答) Child pretend to be mother and father in kindergarten.孩子在幼稚园里面假扮父亲和母亲(表将来)(JasoOon的回答) 2. pretend to have done sth .这个短语的意思是假装已经做过了某事，强调事情的一个完成的状态，侧重于假装的事情已经做好了。 举例:I pretend tohave seen nothing，but I cant.我假装自己没有看到任何东西，但是我做不到(侧重于一个完成时态，已经试图去假装没有看到)
she pretended to have finished the homeworkwhen she went out and played.当她出门玩的时候她假装自己已经完成了家庭作业。(假装做作业这个动作已经在出门玩之前做完了)(JasoOon的回答)以及怀陌的回答:When the teacher came in，he pretended to havefinished the homework.当老师进来的时候他假装自己已经完成家庭作业了，两者有异曲同工之妙。 3. pretendtobe doing sth 这个短语的意思是假装正在做某事，强调动作的一个进行时态。 举例:They pretend to be reading books when the teacher sneakingly stands at the back door.当老师偷偷地站在后门的时候他们假装正在读书(读书与老师站在后门都是过去进行时 态)(JasoOon的回答) Asmanypeople do，youoftenpretend to be doingwork when actuallyyou arejust wasting time online.像很多人一样，你经常假装正在工作，其实是在上网。 群主补充：昨天和今天已提交作业的同学，做得都很好，全部授予小红花。希望你们再接再厉，不要松懈哟。所以下周一出题者为所有已提交作业的同学或者你们选出的代表。
“tｈｅwａｙ+从句”结构的意义及用法 首先让我们来看下面这个句子: Ｒead the foｌloｗｉnｇpassagｅａnd talkａbout ｉt wi ｔh your classmaｔes．Try tｏｔeｌl whaｔyｏu thiｎk ｏf Tom aｎd ｏｆｔhe ｗay the chiｌｄrenｔrｅated ｈim. 在这个句子中，ｔhe waｙ是先行词,后面是省略了关系副词that或in whｉch的定语从句。 下面我们将叙述“the ｗaｙ+从句”结构的用法。 1.tｈe wａy之后，引导定语从句的关系词是tｈat而不是hoｗ,因此，<<现代英语惯用法词典＞＞中所给出的下面两个句子是错误的：Ｔhｉs is ｔｈeｗayｈowｉtｈａppened. This is the way how he ａlwａｙs treats me. 2．在正式语体中,thaｔ可被in which所代替;在非正式语体中，ｔhat则往往省略。由此我们得到theｗay后接定语从句时的三种模式：1) tｈe ｗaｙ＋ｔhａt-从句２）the way +ｉn whiｃh－从句3) the ｗay +从句 例如：Ｔｈe way(in whiｃh ，thａt) ｔhｅｓｅｃomｒade ｓloｏｋａｔｐrobｌems is wrong．这些同志看问题的方法
不对。 Ｔｈｅｗａy(that ,ｉn ｗhiｃh)yoｕ’ｒe doinｇit is comple ｔeｌy crａzy.你这么个干法,简直发疯。 Wｅａdmiｒｅd him for thｅｗay ｉｎｗhｉch he fａｃeｓdiｆficultieｓ． Waｌlａｃe ａｎd Ｄarwiｎｇreed ｏn the way ｉｎwhi ｃh ｄｉfｆｅrｅnt forms ｏf life had ｂegｕn.华莱士和达尔文对不同类型的生物是如何起源的持相同的观点。 Thｉs is ｔｈe ｗaｙ（tｈａｔ) hｅdｉd it. I lｉkeｄｔhe waｙ(ｔhat) ｓｈeｏｒganized ｔhe ｍeetｉng． 3.theｗay(tｈat)有时可以与hｏw(作“如何”解）通用。例如： That’s tｈe ｗaｙ(tｈaｔ) shｅspoke. = Tｈat’s how shｅspoke.
lack,lack of 和a lack of的具体区别近义词区别 1 lack, vt, 直接加宾语, He lacks confidence to write in English. lack, 也有vi的时候, 这时一般是lack in+宾语, 构成be lacking in… He is lacking in money. 2 a lack of, 一般泛指的时候用, lack, n, 缺乏; there is a lack of... 缺乏,,, 3 lack of, 一般前面都会有限定词的, 再有就是固定搭配, 前面不用a, 如lack of water. He can not buy it because of (his) lack of money. 他因缺钱买不起这个; (Habitual) lack of care. 习惯性的缺乏关心; (The) lack of rain made... 雨水的缺乏使得... 这里用the来限定了. lack,lack of 和a lack of的具体区别: 1) Lack : n. 缺乏,不足. vi. 缺乏,短少. 例句: 1) The school has no lack for applicants. 学校不缺申请者. 2) The lack of a license was pinching me. 没有执照我感到很棘手. 3) Lack of rest . 缺乏休息. 2) Lack of sth : 缺乏 例句: 1) The flowers are wilting for lack of water. 这些花因缺水而渐渐枯萎. 2) The flower languished from lack of water. 花因缺水而枯萎. 3) A lack of : adj. 缺少. 例句: Stress and tiredness often result in a lack of concentration. 压力和疲劳常导致注意力不集中. *********************** A) Lack of 和 a lack of 的区别: Lack of 的lack 是动词, a lack of 的lack是名词. 例句: "蒙古缺少水"---- 1) Mongolia lacks of water . 2) Or " There is a lack of water in Mongolia."

表示“方式”、“方法”，注意以下用法： 1.表示用某种方法或按某种方式，通常用介词in(此介词有时可省略)。如： Do it (in) your own way. 按你自己的方法做吧。 Please do not talk (in) that way. 请不要那样说。 2.表示做某事的方式或方法，其后可接不定式或of doing sth。 如： It’s the best way of studying [to study] English. 这是学习英语的最好方法。 There are different ways to do [of doing] it. 做这事有不同的办法。 3.其后通常可直接跟一个定语从句(不用任何引导词)，也可跟由that 或in which 引导的定语从句，但是其后的从句不能由how 来引导。如： 我不喜欢他说话的态度。 正：I don’t like the way he spoke. 正：I don’t like the way that he spoke. 正：I don’t like the way in which he spoke. 误：I don’t like the way how he spoke. 4.注意以下各句the way 的用法： That’s the way (=how) he spoke. 那就是他说话的方式。 Nobody else loves you the way(=as) I do. 没有人像我这样爱你。 The way (=According as) you are studying now, you won’tmake much progress. 根据你现在学习情况来看，你不会有多大的进步。 2007年陕西省高考英语中有这样一道单项填空题： ——I think he is taking an active part insocial work. ——I agree with you_____. A、in a way B、on the way C、by the way D、in the way 此题答案选A。要想弄清为什么选A，而不选其他几项，则要弄清选项中含way的四个短语的不同意义和用法，下面我们就对此作一归纳和小结。 一、in a way的用法 表示：在一定程度上，从某方面说。如： In a way he was right.在某种程度上他是对的。注：in a way也可说成in one way。 二、on the way的用法 1、表示：即将来(去)，就要来(去)。如： Spring is on the way.春天快到了。 I'd better be on my way soon.我最好还是快点儿走。 Radio forecasts said a sixth-grade wind was on the way.无线电预报说将有六级大风。 2、表示：在路上，在行进中。如： He stopped for breakfast on the way.他中途停下吃早点。 We had some good laughs on the way.我们在路上好好笑了一阵子。 3、表示：(婴儿)尚未出生。如： She has two children with another one on the way.她有两个孩子，现在还怀着一个。 She's got five children，and another one is on the way.她已经有5个孩子了，另一个又快生了。 三、by the way的用法
