同义句变换·利用语态改写
通过改变主语,主动语态与被动语态之间可进行同义句转换,特别要注意时态、情态动词的用法。如:
1. People grow rice in the south of China.
Rice_________ _________ in the south of China.
【答案】is grown。rice作主语,助动词用一般现在时的单数形式is。
2. Everyone should give back his library books on time.
Library books should _________ _________ on time.
【答案】be given back。被动句中含有情态动词should,因此助动词用be。
3. It is widely accepted that more people use computers in the world today.
Computers _________ widely _________ in the world today.
【答案】are; used。computers是复数名词作主语,助动词用are,且句子用被动语态。
4. We must keep the noise level under 50dbs(分贝).
The noise level must _________ _________ under 50dbs.
【答案】be kept。被动句中含情态动词must,因此助动词用be。
5. Do they grow rice in autumn?
rice in autumn?
【答案】Is; grown。不可数名词rice作主语, 助动词用单数is,一般疑问句的助动词置于句首。
6. We call maths the language of science.
Maths _________ _________ the language of science.
【答案】is called。主语maths虽然是以s结尾,但并不是名词的复数,因此助动词仍用单数is。
同义句变换·利用反义词改写
用反义词或词组加上否定词表达与原句相同的意思,主要考查学生对反义词、词组的积累和换位思维的能力。如:
1. The boy lent a story-book to Tom just now.
Tom _________ a story-book _________ the boy just now.
【答案】borrowed; from。borrow…from意为“从……借来”;而lend…to意为“向……借出”,两个词组正好为一组反义词组,当句子的主语变化时,两个词组可以进行互换。
2. The factory is not far from here. It only takes you ten minutes by bike.
The factory is _________here. It’s only ten minutes’_________.
【答案】near; bike-ride。not far的意思是“不远,近”,可用形容词near与之转换。
3. I think music is less interesting than P.E.
I _________think music is _________interesting than P.E.
【答案】don’t; more。less interesting的意思是“没有 / 不及……有趣”,与之相反more interesting的意思是“(比) ……更有趣”。 语言现象“否定的转移”要求将think后面宾语从句中的否定形式转移到think 上。
4. The bike under the tree is different from this one.
The bike under the tree isn’t the _________ _________this one.
【答案】same as。the same as意为“与……相同”,而反义词组 be different from 意为“与……不同”。
同义句变换·利用同义词改写
用同义词或同义词组对原句中的某些词或词组进行替换,注意替换后的词或词组的词形变化要与句子其他成分相适应。如:
1. They could see icebergs here and there.
They could see icebergs _________.
【答案】everywhere。everywhere与here and there都有“到处”之意。
2. Mrs Green always takes good care of the children in the school.
Mrs Green always _________ _________ the children well in the school.
【答案】looks after。take good care of 与look after…well都有“好好照顾”之意。
3. Lin Tao is good at physics.
Lin Tao_________ _________ in physics.
【答案】does well。be good at与do well in都有“在……(方面) 做得好,擅长于……”之意。
4. I like Backstreet Boys. But he likes F4 better.
He_________ F4_________ Backstreet Boys.
【答案】prefers, to。词组prefer A to B 意为“选择A(而不选择B);比起 B 来,更喜欢A”。
