例1 A man is being questioned in relation to the murder last night.
A.advised B.attended C.attempted D.admitted
思路解析
这道题考查过去分词作定语的用法,同时也是一个词义辨析题。advise 指"建议",attend 为"参加;出席",attempt 指"想要;企图",admit指"承认"。根据句意"那个正在被质问的男人与昨晚的蓄意谋杀案相关"可知,the attempted murder是"故意杀人,蓄意谋杀"。答案: C
绿色通道
掌握过去分词作定语时和其所修饰的名词往往有被动或完成的含义。而现在分词作定语时和其所修饰的名词往往有主动的意味。
例2 It was not a serious illness,and she soon it.
A.got over B.got on with C.got around D.got out of
思路解析
get over 指"克服;熬过;(从疾病中)恢复";get on with 为"继续做,在......有进展"; get around 指"到处走动;传播出去";get out of 指"从......之中获救;避免"。结合题意,可知此处是指从病中恢复过来。答案:A
黑色陷阱
本题易错选D项。原因是未掌握 get over 有"从疾病中恢复"的意思,而对 get out of 望文生义。
绿色通道
掌握这些常用短语意思的区别是解题的关键。还有一些其他类似的常用动词短语也是常考内容。如 get 短语:get together(聚会),get along(进展;相处),get around (消息传开),get away (走开;逃走),get down to (开始认真做),get in (进来;收庄稼),get off (下车),get on (上车;进展),get over (克服;摆脱),get through (通过;做完)。
例3 We're going to with some friends for a picnic.Would you like to join us?
A.get in B.get over C.get along D.get together
思路解析
get in 为"进入;收获;陷入";get over为"爬过;克服;熬过"; get along with为"与......相处"。根据前后语境,此处应用get together(聚会)。答案:D
黑色陷阱
本题容易错选C。错选的原因是get along with 是我们比较熟悉的短语,意思是"与......相处",如果断章取义的理解题干,就会以为是"我们要和朋友友好相处"。
例4 The famous scientist grow up he was born and in 1930 he came to Shanghai.
A.when B.in which C.where D.wherever
思路解析
本题考查where 引导状语从句的用法,意为"在......地方",该句意思是"这位著名的科学家在他出生的地方长大,1930年来到上海"。答案为C。
黑色陷阱
本题B项干扰很大。做这类题时,容易把状语从句当成定语从句,从而误选"介词+which"代替where的情况。而where 引导状语从句时前面不需要先行词。
绿色通道
在做本题时,一定要注意状语从句和定语从句的区别。状语从句没有先行词引导,而定语从句必须要有先行词引导。掌握这个特点,遇到相似题型时就能迎刃而解。
例5 A story goes Elizabeth I of England liked nothing more than being surrounded by clever and qualified gentlemen at court.

黑色陷阱
