高考示例

１. Was it during the Second World War ____ he died?(MET88)

A. that B. while C. in which D. then

該題考查的是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，但因改為一般疑問句，增加了難度，考生若能將疑問語序還原成陳述語序：It was during the Second World War ____ he died. 則能更準(zhǔn)確、快捷地得出答案A。

２. Who is it up ____ decide whether to go or not.

(NMET2000上海春季)

A. to to B. to C. for to D. to for

這是一道答案創(chuàng)新題。不少考生認(rèn)為一個句子絕對不可能出現(xiàn)兩個to 連在一起的現(xiàn)象，所以先將A排除掉。其實(shí)該特殊疑問句如果還原為陳述句語序：It is up ____ who ____ decide whether to go or not.則能得出答案A。

３. Last month part of Southeast Asia was struck by floods, from ____ effects the people are still suffering. (2005天津卷)

A. that B. whose C. those D. what

這道題看上去好像是from 后缺賓語，但將定語從句的語序還原:the people are still suffering from ____ effects.便能很容易判斷出此題是effects前缺定語，故答案是B。

４. The manager discussed the plan that they would like to see ____ the next year.(NMET2000)

A. carried out B. carrying out C. carry out D. to carry out

這是一道前置創(chuàng)新題。如果把先行詞the plan代入后面的定語從句中：they would like to see the plan ____,因?yàn)橛媱澥潜煌瓿傻?，所以?yīng)用過去分詞carried out表被動，則能得出答案A。

5. The home improvements have taken what little there is ____ my spare time.(NMET2001)

A. from B. in C. of D. at

這道題看上去好像是一道考查介詞的題目，但它實(shí)際上所涉及到的是定語后置的問題，如果將take后的賓語從句調(diào)整語序——從感嘆句語序調(diào)整為陳述語序：there is little ____ my spare time,則能得出答案C。

６． As far as I am concerned, education is about learning and the

more you learn, ____.(NMET2000上海)

A. the more for life are you equipped

B. the more equipped for life you are

C. the more life you are equipped for

D. you are equipped the more for life

此題考察的是the比較級＋主語＋謂語,the比較級＋主語＋謂語這個句型，如果先從陳述句入手，判斷句型：you learn more, you are more equipped for life 則更容易得出答案Ｂ。

７． She will tell us why she feels so strongly that each of us has a role ____ in making the earth a better place to live.

(2003上海春季高考題)

A. to have played B. to play

C. to beplayed D. to be playing

8. When I handed the report to John, he said that George was the person ____.(1996上海)

Ａ． to send Ｂ． for sending

Ｃ． to send it to Ｄ． for sending it to

9. There are five pairs ____, but Im at a loss which to buy.

(１９９９上海)

Ａ． to be chosen Ｂ． to choose from

Ｃ． to choose Ｄ． for choosing

以上三道題考查的都是不定式作定語，根據(jù)作定語的不定式和前面所修飾的名詞和代詞有邏輯上的動賓和介賓關(guān)系，我們可以通過將前面的名詞或代詞還原到后面的不定式中確定句型。第7題可通過還原確定出句型:play a role in doing， 第8題: send it to the person,第9題：choose from five pairs,故這三道題的答案分別是ＢＣＢ。

結(jié)合以上高考題以及日常教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)，我總結(jié)出調(diào)整語序定句型主要有兩種情況：

一、還原法即將難于理解的特殊句式結(jié)構(gòu)還原為易于理解的一般語序來確定句型，得出答案的一種方法。

（一）將被動語態(tài)還原為主動語態(tài)

１. Time should be made full use of ____ your spoken English.

A. improve B. improving C. improves D. to improve

解題思路：將此題的主語time調(diào)整為謂語動詞詞組make use of的賓語，即make use of time“充分利用時間”那么此題就迎刃而解了，后面接目的狀語to do不定式，故選Ｄ。如果此題不調(diào)整語序，那么解題就會陷入誤區(qū)，認(rèn)為介詞of加動名詞而錯選了Ｂ。

２. Much attention should be paid to ____ your handwriting.

A. improve B. improving C. improves C. to improve

解題思路：將此題的主語much attention調(diào)整為謂語動詞pay的賓語，即pay much attention to，后面應(yīng)接動名詞，故選Ｂ。

3. These stories were made ____ his own head.

A. out of B. up of C. into D. up out of

解題思路：將此題的主語these stories調(diào)整為謂語動詞的賓語，即make up these stories out of his own head，即得出答案Ｄ。

（二）將疑問句還原為陳述句

１. Which do you enjoy ____ your spare time, singing or dancing?

A. to spend B. spending C. spend D. be spending

解題思路：將此題的特殊疑問句語序調(diào)整為陳述語序，即把which調(diào)整為enjoy的賓語：enjoy which ____ your spare time，“喜歡哪個來度過你的業(yè)余時間”，那么不定式表目的，故答案是Ａ。

２. Whom would you rather have ____ to the hospital?

A. sending B. sent C. to send D. to be sent

解題思路：將此題的特殊疑問句語序調(diào)整為陳述語序，即把whom調(diào)整為have的賓語：Would rather have whom ____ to the hospital，“寧愿讓誰被派到那個醫(yī)院”，考察的是have sth. done句型，故答案是Ｂ。

3. Is the hotel ____ you stayed the first time you arrived here?

A. at which B. what

C. which D. the one where

解題思路：將此題的疑問句語序調(diào)整為陳述語序：The hotel is ____ you stayed the first time you arrived here.這樣就不難看出主句中缺表語，選項Ｄ有表語，再判斷后面定語從句的關(guān)系詞where正確，故答案是Ｄ。

4. Is this the hotel ____ you stayed the first time you arrived here?

A. at which B. what

C. which D. the one where

解題思路：將此題的疑問句語序調(diào)整為陳述語序：This is the hotel ____ you stayed the first time you arrived here.此題主句的主干成分完整，后面的定語從句的關(guān)系詞which正確，故答案是Ａ。

２． In my opinion, it is the best use that could be ____ of the money.

A. turned up B. turned out C. spent D. made

解題思路：如果把先行詞the best use代入后面的定語從句中：the best use could be ____ of the money,再將其被動語序調(diào)整為主動語序，即能確定此題考查的是固定短語make use of,最后得出答案Ｄ。

３． Mrs. Brown was much disappointed to see the washing machine she had had ____ went wrong again.

A. it B. it repaired

C. repaired D. to be repaired
