经典名题导解
1.- Do you like the material?
-Yes,it_____ very soft.
A.is feeling B.felt C.feels D.is felt
解析：此题主要考查feel一词作系动词的用法。因为空格后面是形容词，所以谓语动词要用系动词的一船现在时，而不用它的被动语态和现在进行时。故正确答案为C。
点评：诸如 feel作系动词的用法的词还有：sound,taste, smell,
look等，经常被测试。需要注意的是这些系动词不用进时和被动语态。
2．After the new technique was introduced,the factory produced_______ tractors in 1988 as the year before.
A.as twice many B.as many twice
C.twice as many D.twice many as
解析：此题主要考查形容词中倍数的表达法。表示倍数、几分之几、百分之的单词或短语放在as(so)…as 或形容词比较级的前面。所以要填twice as many as。故答案为C。
点评：倍数的表达公式为：A is …times + adj./adv.(比较级)+that+B或A is...times+as+adj./adv.(原级)+as+B,答题时需注意属于哪一句式。
3．Mr Zhang gave the textbooks to all the pupils except _____ who had already taken them.
A.the ones B. ones C.some D.the others
解析：本题主要考查不定代词的用法区别。这是一个限定性定语从句。缺少先行词。the ones 表示特指，ones 表示泛指，不能作先行词，the others 意思是“剩余的”，与定语从句的语义重复，some亦为泛指。故答案为A。
点评：不定代词one、it、ones、the ones以及other、the other(s)在英语的语言运用中极为普及，需留意它们区别。
4.- ______ you like some more bread?
-I’m full, thank you .
A.Shall B.Will C.Are D.Would
解析：本题考查“would……like sth.”句型表示征求对方意见的用法。shall用于征询对方意见时常用于第一、三人称中，will 和would 常用于第二人称表示征求对方意见，但would语气更委婉，因此本题答案D恰当。
点评：情态动词是语法学习的一大难点，解这类题时应准确理解语意，把握语境。
5.Thank you very much for _______ you have done for my sister.
A.that B.which C.it D.what
解析：本题考查宾语从句在复合句中的用法。这是一个复合句，其中，you have done for my sister这个句子是作介词for的宾语，因此这是一个宾语从句，而从句中done是个及物动词，其后缺少了宾语。故答案选D。
点评：解复合句时，首先应分析句子结构，弄清句子结构后，根据不同的从句选用正确的连接词。
e.g.I don’t know where I can buy this map.
6.- Do you think I could borrow your dictionary?
- ________.
A.Yes, you may borrow B.Yes, you could
D.Yes, help yourself D.Yes, go on
解析：本题考查日常口语的使用。题中用could 是请求对方帮忙或同意自己做某事时婉转的用法。因此本题问话简略答语可以是“Yes,you can”而不是B项“Yes ,you could”，而A项不能省略代词it.D项意为“用吧”。故答案选 C恰当。意为“自己取用”。
点评：对于一些语意相近的答语应认真分析，逐一排除。
