例1、_____ he did not know much English,he got out his dictionary and looked up the word.
A. As B. For C. Since D. Because
答案为A
[解析]for,because和as虽皆可作连词用,都可表示“因为”,但用法有些区别。for引导的分句总是置于另一分句之后,常常对前一分句加以解释,两个分句之间,总是用逗号分开。because引导的原因状语从句时,往往以why问句,语气比较重,传递的往往是对方未了解的新信息。as引导的原因状语从句时,往往是对方也知道的信息。本句是他拿出词典查,显然,“他知道的英语单词不多”,这是明摆着的事,所以用as最恰当。
例2. John became a football coach in Sealion Middle School ____ the beginning of March.
A. on B. for C. with D. at
答案:D
[解析] at the beginning of “在………的开始”。
例3. -How far apart do they live?
-_________ I know ,they live in the same neighbourhood.
A. As long as B. As far as C. As well as D. As often as
答案为B
[解析] 首先应分析这四个短语的意义区别。这是四个意义完全不同的短语。as long as 意为“只要……就”;as far as意为“到目前为止”;as well as意为“也……”;as often as意为“每次,每当”,根据原题as far as I know意为“就我所知”。
例4. The speech by the mayor of Shanghai before the final voting for EXPO 2010 is strongly impressed_________ my memory.
A. to B. over C. by D. on
答案为D。
[解析] impress sb . (with sth.)给某人深刻印象。impress on/upon sb.是固定搭配,给……留下印象。
例5. The home improvements have taken what little there is_________ my spare time.
A. from B. in C. of D. at
答案为C。
[解析] 这是一个宾语从句,have taken后接感叹句,其正常语序是what little of my spare time there is.
例6. The sunlight came in ________the windows in the roof and lit up the whole room.
A. through B. across C. on D. over
答案为A。
[解析] “从窗户缝隙中”要用介词through。through指从里面穿过,透过;across强调从面上横穿,横跨;on“在……面上”;over从一地到另一地;经过一段时间或距离。译文:阳光从屋顶窗户缝隙中照射进来,把整个屋子都照亮了。
例7. He was about to tell me the secret _______ someone patted him on the shoulder.
A. as B. until C. while D. when
答案为D。
[解析] as, until, while和when均可表时间,但各有不同:as强调一边……一边;while“在……期间/同时”,表转折;when有两种用法:①当……时,从句动词不限;②就在此时,忽然,等于at that time, suddenly。常用的句式有:be doing…when…(正在做……突?然……);?be about to do…when(正要做……突然……);常与when连用。译文:他正要告诉我这个秘密,这时,有人拍了拍他的肩膀。
例8. I know nothing about the young lady ________ She is from Beijing.
A. except B. except for C. except that D. besides
答案为C。
[解析] except后接名词或代词,意思是“除……之外”,表示从整体中除掉部分。except for后接名词或代词,意思是“除……之外”,表示两种事物的类比。如:Your composition is very good, except for some mistakes.作文和错误是两个概念。except that引导句子。besides后接名词或代词,前边常有other,else等,意思是“除……以外还有”。she is from Beijing是一个句子,只有except that才能引导从句。
例9. Don't be afraid of asking for help _____ it is needed.
A. unless B. since C. although D. when
答案为D。
[解析] 考连词的用法及区别。答案D容易和B混淆。这里的when=if(如果、倘若)。根据句子的前后关系,应该是未发生的事情,但由when引导的时间/条件状语从句中谓语动词应用一般现在时代替一般将来时。而since(既然)引导的是原因状语从句,其谓语若是将来时,不可用一般现在时代替。译文:如果需要,就别怕向人求助。
例10. They had a pleasant chat_________ a cup of coffee.
A. for B. with C. during D. over
答案为D。
[解析] 考查介词搭配。to chat over a cup of coffee意思是边喝咖啡边聊天。for和during都有“在……期间”之意,但后边通常加时间;with“随着,用”;over“在(做)……期间,边……边……”。

1. The doctor will be free _______.
A. 10 minutes later B. after 10 minutes C. in 10 minutes D. 10 minutes after
6、 表示因果关系,连接的双方,互为因果,或者前因后果,或者前果后因。常用的连词有:for, so
例如:

5、 表示联合关系,联合的双方是对等的,意义上趋向一致。常用连词有:and, both...and, neither...nor, not only...but also, as well as

3、 表示选择关系的连词,连接的双方只取其一。常用连词有or, either...or, otherwise
例如:
a) You can go to Beijing either today or tomorrow.
b) You must get up early or you won’t catch the early bus.
2、 介词和动词、形容词、名词等常常构成固定搭配,也就是说,在这些词的后面常常要求用一定的介词。这一点在学习时要特别注意。如: a.动词+介词:laugh at, wait for b.形容词、过去分词+介词:be good at, be proud of
c名词+介词:pay a visit to , the key to
1、介词一般放在名词之前,但它后面的介词宾语是疑问代词、疑问副词或者关系代词时,这些词提到了前面而只剩下介词在后了。
