句子衔接加连词高考英语短文改错命题的一个重要方面就是考查连接手段,连词使用不当会造成上下句不衔接。英语中的词与词、句与句之间必须使用并列或从属连词。●难点磁场1.(★★★★★)It was about noon we arrived at the foot of the mountain.78. ________ (NMET2002)2.(★★★★)The food was expensive and the service was good.84. ________ (NMET2002)3.(★★★★★)It looks as if my parents treat me as a visitor and a guest.84. ________ (NMET2001)4.(★★★★★) felt that they helped me understand what the world works.89. ________(NMET2001 春季)5.(★★★★)She was smiling but nodding at me.92. ________(NMET2000)●案例探究1.If the book you want is out, you may ask for it to be called back for you, and whether you pay the cost of sending a post card, the librarian will write to you.解析:此题为五星级题。whether 改为 If。此题考查 if 与 whether 作为连词的区别。此处为if 引导的条件状语从句,表示“如果……”;如用 whether,则表示“是否”,语意不通。在下列情况下一般只用 whether:引导介词后的宾语从句、主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句或在 whether to do, whether…or not…中。e.g.Whether we’ll go camping tomorrow depends on the weather.I asked him whether he would go or not.2.I live in Beijing, where is the capital of China. 解析:此题为四星级题。此题考查定语从句中的非关系代词、副词的用法。where 改为which。这是一个非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,主语应由关系代词来充当,所以应将关系词 where 改为 which。此句应改为:I live in Beijing, where there are lot of places of interest.先行词在定语从句为地点状语,所以应用关系副词 where。如:e.g.This is a house that / which I visited yesterday.This is a house where I spent a happy childhood. 3.It is a very important exam but I can’t afford to fail it…解析:此题为五星级题。此题考查并列句之间的关系,在此两句为因果关系,所以根据句意,but 改为 so。 4.When I was on the...
