高一英语独立主格结构with的复合结构试题1. ______ the production up by 60%, the company will have another excellent year.A．As B．Because C．With D．Since【答案】C【解析】考查with的复合结构句意为：产量增加了60%，这家公司将再创佳绩。

with的复合结构为：with + 宾语（n./pron.）+ 宾补（adj./adv./v.-ing/v.-ed/to v./…）。

因逗号前无动词，故排除从属连词Because、since、as。

as（介词“作为”）语意不通故排除。

故选C.【考点】考查with的复合结构2. With the electricity ___________, all the machines stopped.A．cut off B．was cut off C．cut down D．was cut down【答案】A【解析】考查with符合结构和词组：句意：因为电被切断了，所有的机器都停下了。

Cutoff切断，cut down砍倒，使用with+宾语+宾语补足语结构，BD是谓语，选A。

【考点】考查with复合结构和词组点评：with的复合结构的作用相当于一个状语从句，基本结构为：with+宾语+宾语补足语；宾语补足语可以是名词，代词，形容词，副词，现在分词，过去分词，也可以是不定式。

对宾语的情况进行补充说明。

当做宾语补足语的动词与宾语构成被动关系的时候，使用过去分词的形式；当二者构成主动关系的时候，使用现在分词的形式。

要注意With的复合结构经常与独立主格结构转换使用。

3. With so much work _______his mind , he almost broke down .A．fill B．filling C．filled D．to fill【答案】B【解析】本题考查with复合结构：在with复合结构中work与fill是逻辑上的主动关系，因此要用现在分词，句意“很多工作占据了他的大脑，他几乎崩溃了”。

高三英语介词介词短语试题答案及解析1. The media made different remarks ________ Malaysian Airlines MH370 Flight recently.A．on B．for C．of D．in【答案】A【解析】句意：最近媒体对马航MH370有不同的评价。

这里使用了词组make remarks on对…做出不同的评价。

所以选A。

考点: 考查介词辨析2. ________ his career as an actor he never gave up his hope of becoming a Hollywood star. A．Throughout B．WithinC．For D．In【答案】A【解析】A句意：在他整个演艺生涯中，他从未放弃成为好莱坞明星的梦想。

throughout表示时间时，意为： during all of a particular period，from the beginning to the end，强调“在……的整个期间”；in和within都可表示“在……(时间)内”，但不能强调自始至终，故被排除；for表示时间，后需要一段时间，如for a year/month等。

3. People in these countries demand equal treatment for all, ____race, religion or sex.A．in defence of B．regardless of C．instead of D．in support of【答案】B【解析】句意：这些国家的人们要求平等待遇不管种族宗教和性别。

regardless of不管。

A. in defence of为了…辩护，C. instead of代替，D. in support of支持，所以选B。

【考点】考查介词短语4. Do you really want to rent such a flat which is empty ________ some old pieces of furniture? A．besides B．except for C．for D．except【答案】B【解析】句意：你真的想租这么个除了几个旧家具空屋子吗？这里except for指整体说明，局部排除，besides表示除了…还包括，for为了，except是除了…（没有）。

浅谈“with”复合结构作者：陈锦来源：《新课程·中学》2011年第07期“with”复合结构主要有两大形式：即①with＋名词＋非谓语动（doing，to do，done ）这一结构是高考命题人常考的：主要在突破非谓语动词的用法。

②with＋名词/代词＋形容词/介词短语/副词/名词，这两大结构，其实它在英语句子中有两大作用——在句子中作状语和定语。

一、with复合结构的具体表现形式1.with＋名词/代词＋v-ing（这一结构在句中作状语表示主动的或正在进行的动作）：With the students cheering， professor wang came to the playground.（在学生的欢呼声中，王教授来到操场。

）2.with＋名词/代词＋p.p（表示被动或者一个已经完成了的动作)：The man came in with his hands tied.（那个人进来时手是绑着的。

）3.with＋名词/代词＋to do（表示一个将要发生的动作）：He hurriedtoleave withsomany things to dealwith.（他匆匆离开了，因为有好多事情要去处理。

）注意：这里非谓语动词该如何选择主要看with后面的名词或代词与其后动词的时间关系，若表被动或完成就用过去分词（如第二点），若表主动，或一个正在进行的动作，就用现分词（如第一点）。

若表示一个将要去完成的动作用不定式（如第三点）。

4.with＋名词/代词＋形容词：He stared at me with his mouth open.（他盯着我的时候嘴张着。

）5.with＋名词/代词＋介词短语：With the children in theriver，we can’tgo away.（孩子们在河里所以我们不能走远。

）6.with＋名词/代词＋副词：Theboystoodtherewithhisheaddown.（那个男孩子站着头朝下。

The main majors in our college are urban metro, car repairing, transportation management, logistics and so on.I think the students recruiting and employment are very important to our college as well as to students and their parents, the serious working attitude and consciousness are highly required.The third part of my daily work is to be a head teacher, there is an idea I respect very much: there is no bad students, but only bad teachers. If a family is a component of our society, then the class is a component of the school.When we judge a class good or bad, the key ruler is the organization and management ability of a head teacher, as well as the good working attitude and teaching methods. A head teacher is the pathfinder on the way of students growing, as a young teacher, Ill try my best to be an excellent head teacher.About daily life: I have a wide range of hobbies, especially sports and reading.Sport: We have very good sports facilities in our college, I play badminton every Tuesday, and play basketball every Friday. I think thatsports is the best flavor of our life, it can release the pressure and relax our mood.Reading: I have good reading habits since I was a child, I like the famous four classic very much, and Im also interested in some biography and news commentaries. I think books can help people being mature, they affect me gradually.英语自我介绍简洁大气。

I can see you’ve been very busy.B Well ,of course!You know me.F So,what’s next then?

I’ve just been to Bratislava.B Well, I’m going to be there next month. I’m going to discuss the contract withthe printers.And after that, I think I’m going to take a few day’s holiday. It’s been a very busy year.5.3 Negotiating a bank loanBM O K,well, I’ve got all the paperwork here for your loan application .Everything seems to be in order.Let’s just have a look at your business plan.Perhaps you could tell me about your ideas?JH Yes,of course.We plan to make fruit drinks,from 100 per cent fruit-no extrasugar,or additives or ‘E’ numbers.At the moment,we’ve only got a couple of flavours,strawberry and pear,but we want to expand our range to include more flavours.BM Y ou say that you’ve got some f lavours.Have you already started making and selling your drinks?JH Only on a small scale,but they’re selling really well and we can’t keep up with demand.BM Right,so why exactly do you want a loan?Are you going to expand your range orincrease you production?JH Well,both,we hope.BM And how do you plan to sell the drinks?Direct to the public?JH No,we’re going to sell through other companies.You know,in cafés,snack bars,at outlets in airports and railway stations.We’ve already had talks with the catering company that runs the ‘Travel Snack’chain.They’re going to stock our drinks intheir main outlets/BM And are you going to be able to expand quickly?JH I think so,because we’re going to keep everything simple.We plan to use the same basic plastic bottles that we’ve used until now,and we’re going to use the fruitthat is easily available locally.Our production process is very simple too.BM OK,what about your market?Who do you think is going to be your main market?JH So far most of our customers have been young people-you know,students,teenagers,people who are interested in drinking something healthy and natural .So we’re going to try to consolidate that market. I don’t think it’s a good idea to change our strategy at the moment.BM What kind of marketing have you done?JH A friend of ours has designed a great website for us,and I think we’re going to focus on the Internet for the moment.BM OK,so let’s look at these figures in more detail…Module 66.1 Flight problems1We got to the airport 30 minutes before the plane was due to take off,and we wentstraight to the check-in desk.First,the man at the desk said that the plane wasalready full because the flight was overbooked ,so we couldn’t get on.But then he changed his story.He said there were empty seats on the plane,but wewere late and the check-in desk was closed.So we missed our plane and we had to buy two tickets for another flight.You see,if the flight is overbooked,they give youa seat on a later one-but if you arrive late,you lose your money. I bet the man atthe desk was lying.2I called the airline to ask if my flight was on time ,and the man said that theremight be a delay because of the snow,But when I arrived at the airport ,there wereno flights.The woman at the information desk told me to go back to my hotel andwait.She said they were going to close the airport,and she didn’t know for how long.3I couldn’t complain about anything.The airline sent a taxi to collect me from myhotel.At the airport,they took me s traight to the desk to check my c ase in. I didn’t have to wait.Then they let me sit in the First Class Lounge,even though I didn’ｔhave a first class ticket.The woman i n the lounge said she would bring me some food from the buffet if I was hungry .Then ,when it was time to go ,they pushed mywheelchair all the way to my seat on the plane ,And during the flight,they couldn’t do enough for me.4There’s one every week.If it’s not the baggage handlers,it’s the flight attendants,or even the pilots .The last time I travelled,it was the air trafficcontrollers.Oh ,but they weren’t stopping for the whole day,just for four hours,just long enough to cause absolute chaos .The announcement said there wouldbe no cancellations that day ,only delays.But that meant that I missed my connecting flight in Frankfurt and had to fly out to Chile the following day.6.2 At the hotel1R Good afternoon.Carlton Hotel.How may I help you?G Yes,hello. I’m phoning to check if my online booking went through . I haven’t received any confirmation.R When did you make your booking?G Last Tuesday,the 14th.R Could I have your name,please?G Yes,it’ｓ Johanson.。
