4.I was about to start ________ the telephone rang.(  )
A.whileB.asC.whenD.unless

分析 我正要出发的时候,突然电话响了.

解答 答案:C.根据选项 while当…时,尽管,然而(前后对比),as一边…一边,when当…时,正在这时,unless除非,再结合句意,就在这时电话响了.可知此处缺少了一个引导时间状语从句的连接词,故B正确,when=at that time,be about to do…when…为固定结构,正要做某事,忽然;had done sth when 某人刚做完某事时突然…be doing…when"正在做某事,忽然…",

点评 连词的词义辨析要放在上下文的语境中进行,要注意上下文的语义的串联以及逻辑关系的推理,特别要注意一些连词和时间状语的固定搭配.

12.There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.
On the last day of one voyage,the ship was in a small port.It was winter time,and the sea was very cold,so the captain said to his sailors,"If one of you stays in the water during the whole night,I will give him my ship.But if he comes out before the sun appears,I shall get his wages."
The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating,so they didn't trust him.But then one of them,who thought that he was cleverer than the captain,said that he would do it.He got into the water,and,though it was very cold,he stayed in it.When it was nearly morning,some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away.

"But it's half a mile away!"said the sailor.
"A fire's fire,"answered the captain."I have won."
The sailor came out of the water,and said,"Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages,but you can't cook a chicken."
"I can,"answered the captain.
"If you cook this chicken,"said the sailor,"I shall work for you without wages for seven years,but if you can't,you will give me your ship."

"There it is,"answered the sailor."On the shore."
