Unit 3 A taste of English humour language points课时作业

　　Ⅰ.单句语法填空

　　1．It was when I got back to my apartment ________I first came across my new neighbors.

　　答案：that　本句是强调句。被强调部分是时间状语，故应填that。

　　2．Lily can't fall asleep, extremely ________ (concern) about the result of her maths test.

　　答案：concerned　短语be concerned about ... "担忧，挂念......"，本句中逗号后没有连词，故逗号后的部分为状语，此处应用形容词短语作伴随状语。

　　3．It's no pleasure ________ (go) camping on such a foggy day.

　　答案：going　It's no pleasure doing sth. "做某事没有乐趣"。

　　4．The little boy is clever enough to have no trouble ________ (find) his house without others' help.

　　答案：finding　have no trouble doing sth. "做某事没困难"。

　　5．There was no ________ (agree), and the proposal was accepted.

　　答案：disagreement　由形容词no可知，本空应填名词，再由后一分句"建议被接受了"可知，应填名词disagreement。

　　6．He happened ________ (know) the secret, so I needn't tell him.

　　答案：to have known　happen to do sth. "碰巧做某事"，再由后一并列分句"没有必要告诉他"可知，前一分句谓语部分应用不定式的完成式。

　　7．He set his alarm clock before going to bed in order ________ (get) up earlier than usual the next morning.

　　答案：to get　in order to do sth. "为了做某事"。

　　8．Several weeks had gone by ________ they knew the painting was missing.

　　答案：before　before引导的时间状语从句，表示"在......以前"，从句常用一般过去时，主句用过去完成时。

　　9．While ________ (wait) for the bus by the roadside, I found a wallet on the ground.

　　答案：waiting　时间状语从句的主语和主句主语一致，且从句谓语部分含有be动词，故从句中省略主语和be动词，填waiting。while waiting可看作是while I was waiting的省略。

　　10．The windows haven't been cleaned for at least a year and are ________ (dust) now.

　　答案：dusty　dusty "脏的，布满尘土的"，是形容词，在此处作表语。

　　Ⅱ.单句改错

　　1．He spoke calm to them trying to pour oil on troubled waters but it was useless.

　　________________________________________________________

　　答案：calm→calmly　副词calmly "镇静地"修饰动词短语spoke to。

　　2．There was a time that the two countries were at war.

　　________________________________________________________

　　答案：that→when　There was a time when ... 是固定结构，意为"曾经/一度/有一段时间......"。

　　3．Exact speaking, I disagree with you on this matter.
