-谓语动词的时态
1.(NMET06III)We had guests last night who have not stayed in a B&B hotel ago.【have→had】
2.(NMET06II)High over the water,they discover a hole in the balloon.【discover→discovered】
3.(NMET05I)One of them was that they can earn money.【was→is】
4.(NMET05II)I will write again and send you the photos we take together.【take→took】
5.(NMET04I)Sometimes,we talked to each other very well in class,but after class we become…at once.【talked→talk】
6.(NMET03)She liked it very much and reads it to the class.【reads→read】
7.(NMET02)As we climbed the mountain,we fed monkeys,visiting temples and told stories.【visiting→visited】
8.(NMET02)The time passes quickly.【passes→passed】
9.(NMET01)They did not want me to do any work at family;they want me to devote all my time to my studies so that Ill get good marks in all my….【did→do】
10.(NMET2000)I remembered her words and calm down.【calm→calmed】
判断时态正误的依据主要有四个:(1)根据时间状语,例如:句1(2)根据全文的主体时态,例如:句2、3、4、5(3)根据上下文的逻辑关系,例如:句8(4)根据并列关系,有连词“and,but”等或标点符号“;”作为提示,例如:句6、7、9、10。
-主谓一致
1.(NMET05I)Earning their own money allow them to spend on anything as if they please.【allow→allows;主语为动名词Earning their own money,谓语用单数】
2.(NMET04III)But not all information are good to society.【are→is;主语为不可数名词information,谓语用单数】
3.(NMET04II)If I listen to my own records,there are no need to spend money.【are→is;主语为单数名词need,谓语用单数】
4.(NMET2000)Now my picture and the prize is hanging in the library.【is→are;主语是my picture and the prize,谓语用复数】
-谓语结构(缺少谓语)
1.(NMET05II)I now think English fun to learn.【fun前加is;English是宾语从句的主语,后面应是谓语,且为一般现在时单数,故需加is】
2.(NMET05I)For the most part,students working to earn money for their own use.【working→work;该句为简单句,主语students之后应该是谓语】
-情态动词
1.(NMET05I)Some students may also to save up for their college or future use.【去掉to;情态动词后加动词原形】
2.(NMET03)Ifollowed her advice and should put down 100 words or so each day.【去掉should;依上下文语意而定】
-非谓语动词
1.(NMET06II)The air keeps the balloon up was escaping quickly and the balloon was coming up.【keeps→keeping;后面有谓语was escaping,故改为动词ing形式作后置定语】
2.(NMET06II)The crowd waiting… to greet them in England was very surprised see this when the balloon landed in front of them.【see前加to;缺少不定式符号to】
3.(NMET04III)Its like going to a huge library without have to walk around to find your books.【have→having;介词without的宾语应是动词ing形式】
4.(NMET04II)I have some records giving to me as birthday gifts.【giving→given;用表被动的过去分词作后置定语】
5.(NMET03)Soon I began to enjoy talk to myself on paper as I was learning to express… in simple English.【talk→talking;动词enjoy的宾语应是动词ing形式】
6.(NMET01)My parents love me dearly of course and will do all they can make sure that I get a good education.【make前加to;不定式作目的状语,缺少不定式符合to】
判断正误时,分析句法结构,划分句子成分很重要。可以先找出谓语,再确定非谓语及其形式。例如上述句子划线部分中:句1和4应该是后置定语,由现在分词和过去分词充当;句3和5应该是宾语,由动名词充当;句2和6是状语,由不定式充当。
-固定结构
1.(NMET04I)Can you tell me about what I should do?【去掉about】
2.(NMET03)The main problem was in that I always thought in Chinese and tried to translate anything into English.【去掉第一个in】
