大学英语四级核心词汇精解第七部分连接词一、通过真题复习连接词的积极意义:连接词是连词成句的功能词,各种句子结构都是依靠连接词构造而成。因此,学习连接词也要结合句子学,在句子中感受连接词的功能和用法。学生在学习的过程中,首先要熟练掌握各种连接词的功能;其次要正确理解两个分句间的逻辑关系。在写作过程中,学生如果能够准确地选用恰当的连接词,能使作文增色不少。在做此类题目时,学生需要仔细分析语法结构和句子含义,从而才能选择合适的连接词。二、真题练习:1.TheLondonMarathonisadifficultrace.____;thousandsofrunnersparticipateeveryyear.(05,12)A)ThereforeB)FurthermoreC)AccordinglyD)Nevertheless2.Shehadatenseexpressiononherface,____shewereexpectingtrouble.(03,9)A)eventhoughB)asthoughC)evenasD)nowthat3.____IadmireDavidasapoet,Idonotlikehimasaman.(03,12)A)OnlyifB)IfonlyC)MuchasD)Asmuch4.Agoodmanyproposalswereraisedbythedelegates,____wastobeexpected.(03,12)A)asB)soC)whatD)that5.I’llacceptanyjob____Idon’thavetogetupearly.(94,1)A)lestB)aslongasC)incaseD)though6.____thedangerfromenemyaction,peoplehadtocopewithasevereshortageoffood,clothing,fuel,andalmosteverything.(03,6)A)AsfarasB)AslongasC)AswellasD)Assoonas7.Scientistssayitmaybefiveortenyears____itispossibletotestthismedicineonhumanpatients.(95,6)A)sinceB)beforeC)afterD)when8.NotthatJohndoesn'twanttohelpyou,____it'sbeyondhispower.(95,1)A)butthatB)forthatC)andthatD)inthat9.Rodisdeterminedtogetaseatfortheconcert____itmeansstandinginaqueueallnight.(01,6)A)asifB)evenifC)providedD)whatever10.Don'tletthechildplaywithscissors____hecutshimself.(03,6)A)incaseB)sothatC)nowthatD)onlyif11.Thesetwoareasaresimilar____theybothhaveahighrainfallduringthisseason.(99,1)A)tothatB)besidesthatC)inthatD)exceptthat12.IthinkIwasatschool,____IwasstayingwithafriendduringthevacationwhenIheardthenews.(00,6)A)andthenB)evensoC)orelseD)orso13.Doingyourhomeworkisasurewaytoimproveyourtestscores,andthisisespeciallytrue____itcomestoclassroomtests.(96,1)A)whenB)sinceC)beforeD)after14.Althoughheknewlittleaboutthelargeamountofworkdoneinthefield,hesucceeded____othermorewell-informedexperimentersfailed.(98,1)A)whichB)thatC)whatD)where15.Johnseemsaniceperson.____,Idon’ttrusthim.(97,6)A)EventhoughB)EvensoC)ThereforeD)Though16.____muchisknownaboutwhatoccursduringsleep,theprecisefunctionofsleepanditsdifferentstagesremainslargelyintherealmofassumption.(03,1)A)BecauseB)ForC)SinceD)While17.____isknowntotheworld,MarkTwainisagreatAmericanwriter.(93,6)A)ThatB)WhichC)AsD)It18.Manypatientsinsistonhavingwatcheswiththeminhospital,____theyhavenoschedulestokeep.(03,12)A)forB)sinceC)asifD)eventhough19.Hewaspunished____heshouldmakethesamemistakeagain.(01,6)A)unlessB)providedC)ifD)lest20.Liquidsarelikesolids____theyhaveadefinitevolume.(95,6)A)inthatB)forthatC)withthatD)atthat三、练习精解:1.[答案]D[注释]A)Therefore因此,所以;B)Furthermore而且,此外;C)Accordingly于是,从而,所以;D)Nevertheless尽管如此,然而,不过。根据题意,D应为正确答案。[译文]伦敦马拉松是一项艰巨的比赛。尽管如此,每年还有数以千计的运动员参加。2.[答案]B[注释]A)eventhough即使;B)asthough好象,引导从句用虚拟语气。根据题意,B应为正确答案;C)evenas正巧在……的时候,正如;D)nowthat既然。[译文]她神色紧张,好象预料到了麻烦。3.[答案]C[注释]A)onlyif只要,可以引导条件状语从句;B)ifonly要是……就好了,可以引导虚拟条件句;C)muchas如同,可以引导比较状语从句。例句:ThehousewasverymuchasI’drememberedit。但是在本句中,前后两句的意思显然形成...
