2、hoes, compasses, chopsticks, scissors等。但如果主语用a kind of , a pair of , a series of等加名词构成时, 谓语动词一般用单数形式。A pair of shoes was on the desk并列主语如果指的是同一个人、同一事物或同一概念时, 谓语动词用单数形式, 这时and后面的名词没有冠词。例如:Truth and honesty is the best policyThe girls teacher and friend is a young doctorTo love and to be loved is the

5、 by man comes from the sun季节、月份、星期、节日、假日、一日三餐、学科名称，球类、棋类名词名称前一般不加冠词。1/2 one(a) half 1/4 one(a) quarter形容词的顺序：系动词be，grow，get，become，feel，appear，prove，seem，look，keep，smell，taste，sound，turn，remain限定词+数量形容词(序数词在前，基数词在后)+性状形容词+大小、长短、高低等形体+新旧+颜色+国藉+材料Those three beautiful large square old brown wood table

9、one既可指人，也可指物。that可代替可数名词单数和不可数名词，而one只能代替可数名词。例如：The book on the table is more interesting than that on the deskA box made of iron is stronger than one made of wood表示倍数的比较级有如下几种句型:A is three (four,etc.) times the size (height, length, width,etc) of B.The new building is four times the size (the heig

Yes, you must.注意：neednt have done“表示本来不必做某事而实际上做了某事”。例如：You neednt have waited for me.“should have done”表示应该做到而实际上没有做到。You should have started earlier.“ought to have done”表示过去应做某事而实际未做。You ought to have helped him (but you didnt)书报的标题,小说等情节介绍常用一般现
14、在时。表示感觉,愿望和状态的某些动词如have, be, hear, see, like等词一般不用进行时。有些动词形式上是主动结构,但表示被动的意思。常见的有可和 well, easily 等副词连用的不及物动词sell,wash,write,read,clean,cook等。例如：The cloth washes well.这布很经洗。The new product sells well.这新产品很畅销。The pen writes well.这支笔很好写。在动词 arrange,command, demand, desire,insist, order,propose, request,

17、the song. He is often heard to sing the song.注意：不定式动词在介词but, except, besides后面时,如果这些介词之前有行为动词do的各种形式,那么,这些介词后的不定式不带to,否则要带to.如：She could do nothing but cry. What do you like to do besides swim?I have no choice but to go.作定语的不定式如果是不及物动词,或者不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的地点、工具等,不定式后面须有相应的介词。例如：He is looking for a
18、room to live in. There is nothing to worry about.Please give me a knife to cut with.There / It is no use/ good/ not any use/ good/ useless doing sth.动词后可以用动名词作宾语,但不能用不定式:admit,appreciate, avoid, consider, delay, enjoy, escape, excuse, feel like, finish, forgive, give up, imagine, include, keep, ment

21、cuse me for 等后的动词也必须用动名词形式：I look forward to hearing from you soon.Badly polluted, the water cannot be drunk.(原因)Being written in haste, the composition is full of mistakes.(原因,强调写的过程,故应用现在分词一般被动式)Having been deserted by his guide, he couldnt find his way through the jungle.(为了强调已完成的动作)Asked to stay
22、, I couldnt very well refuse.这里 asked 可能意味着 having been asked, 也可能意味着when/since I was asked, 但用了 having been asked 就不会有歧义。下面句中过去分词表示的时间与谓语动词所表示的时间相同，所以不能代之以强调先于谓语动词的现在分词完成被动式。例如：Covered with confusion, I left the room.我很窘地离开了房间。United, we stand; divided, we fall. 团结则存，分裂则亡。He used to live in London,
23、 use(d)nt he /didnt he?There used to be a cinema here before the war, use(d)nt there /didnt there?Such things ought not to be allowed, ought they?He ought to be punished, oughtnt he?但在正式文体中,用ought we not形式。例如:We ought to go, ought we not?或We ought to go ,should we not?含有情态动词must的句子表示推则,作“想必”解时,疑问部分不
24、可用mustnt。若前句强调对现在情况的推测,疑问部分用arent(isnt)十主语,例如：You must be tired,arent you?若陈述部分的must表示“有必要”时,附加疑问句部分则用neednt。例如：You must go home right now, neednt you?当mustnt 表示禁止时,附加疑问部分一般用must。如：You mustnt walk on grass, must you?前句谓语动词是must have过去分词时,若前句强调对过去情况的推测(一般有过去时间状语),疑问部分的谓语动词用didnt主语;若前句强调动作的完成,疑问部分的谓语动
25、词用havent(hasnt)主语, 例如：He must have met her yesterday, didnt he?You must have seen the film, havent you?陈述句谓语部分出现否定词缀时(前缀或后缀),疑问部分仍用否定结构。例如:He is unfit for his office, isnt he?如果陈述部分包含有no, never, hardly, seldom, few, little,nowhere, nothing等否定或半否定词时,疑问部分用肯定形式。例如：He is hardly 14 years old,is he?如果陈述部分
26、的主语为everyone,someone,no one等不定代词,其疑问部分的主语可用he,也可用they。Everyone knows his job, doesnt he? Everyone knows their job,dont they?No one was hurt,were they?Im late, arent I?One cant be too careful,can one(you)?Have a cup of tea, will you? Lets go there,shall we? Let us go there,will you?同位语从句跟在名词后面,进一步说明该
27、名词的具体内容。引导同位语从句的名词主要有fact, news, promise, idea, truth等。连接词用that (不用which)及连接副词how, when, where, why等。例如：His delay is due to the fact that the car went wrong halfway.The news that our team has won the match is true.She asked the reason why there was a delay.关联词只能用whether不能用if表示“是否”的情况如下:A)在表语从句和同位语从句
28、中。例如：The question is whether the film is worth seeing.The news whether our team has won the match is unknown. B)在主语从句中,只有用it作形式主语时,whether和if都能引导主语从句,否则,也只能用whether。例如：Whether we shall attend the meeting hasnt been decided yet.It hasnt been decided whether(if)we shall attend the meeting.C)在介词之后。(介词往
29、往可以省略)例如：It all depends (on) whether they will support us.D)后面直接跟动词不定式时。He doesnt know whether to stay or not.E)后面紧接or not 时。We didnt know whether or not she was ready.F)引导让步状语从句,只能用whether。Whether you like it or not, you must do it well.G)用if会引起歧义时。例如：Please let me know if you like it.该句有两个意思：“请告诉我
30、你是否喜欢”。或“如果你喜欢,请告诉我。”用了whether就可以避免。在下面几种情况下必须用“that”引导定语从句：1)先行词是不定代词：all,few,little, much,something,nothing,anything等。All that we have to do is to practise every day.2)先行词被序数词或形容词最高级所修饰。The first lesson that I learned will never be forgotten.3)先行词被all,any,every, each, few,little,no,some, 等修饰。I hav
31、e read all the book (that) you gave me.4)先行词被 the only, the very, the same, the last 修饰时。He is the only person that I want to talk to.5)先行词既有人又有物时。They talked of things and persons that they remembered in the school.先行词是表示地点时,要根据从句的谓语动词是及物的还是不及物的。如果是及物的就用that(which),否则用where。This is the house where
32、he lived last year.This is the house that (which) he visited last year.用no soonerthan和hardlywhen引导的从句表示“刚就”。主句中的动词一般用过去完成时,从句用过去时;而且主句一般倒装,把助动词had提到前面。例如：Hardly had I entered the room when I heard a loud noise.代词作主语时,主谓语序不变。Here it is. Here he comes.当句首状语为表示地点的介词词组时也常常引起全部倒装。South of the city lies a
33、 big steel factory.From the valley came a frightening sound.表语置于句首时,倒装结构为“表语+连系动词+主语”。Present at the meeting were Professor White,Professor Smith and many other guests.Gone are the days when they could do what they liked to the Chinese people.Among the goods are Christmas trees, flowers, candles and
34、 toys.He has been to Beijing. So have I.Li Wei cant answer the question.

Try as he would, he might fail again.如果从句的表语是名词
35、,其名词前不加任何冠词。Child as he was, he had to make a living.用于no soonerthan,hardlywhen和not until的句型中。Not until the teacher came did he finish his homework.用于never,hardly,seldom,scarcely, barely, little,often,at no time,not only,not once等词开头的句子。Never shall I do this again.Little did he know who the woman wa
36、s.6.用于以only开头的句子(only修饰副词,介词短语或状语从句时)。Only this afternoon did I finish the novel.Only in this way can you master English.Only when he told me did I realize what trouble he was in.如果only后面的词组不是状语,则不用倒装。Only Wang Ling knows this.用于某些表示祝愿的句子。May you succeed!祝你成功! stomachstomachs，a Germanthree Germans, an Americantwo Americans，man cook - men cooks; papers 报纸, 文件 manners礼貌 drinks饮料in a word 简言之in other words 换句话说have words with 与某人吵嘴 have a few words (a word) with sb.与某人说几句话The crowd were running for their lives某些集体名词, 如people, police, cattle等, 只当复数看待, 谓语动词必须用复数。The police are searching for him.
