-- No, it ____ be him.

-- I'm sure he doesn't wear glasses.

只有A項正確。

① I probably couldn't...

② I'm sure I would be late to...

③ If I..., I would be able to...

④ I would not be able to...

⑤ I would need help to...

⑥ It would be difficult to...例如：

If l were blind, it would be difficult for me to get there.

如果我眼睛看不見，很難到達(dá)那里。　　 、

shopping, eat at a fast food restaurant and then go to a

cinema with the help of my friends. 如果我必須坐輪椅

[句型歸納]

[考點l]Maybe it is time for the rest of society to accept

me as I am and get used to the fact that while I may not

be able to walk, there are many other great things I can

do. 或許現(xiàn)在是讓社會上其他人接受我的現(xiàn)狀并習(xí)慣

我雖不能走路，但我仍可做很多的事實的時候了。

本句要注意used to的用法。它的搭配及用法是：used

to do"過去常做某事”，暗示現(xiàn)在已不再如此；be used to

do意為“被用來做某事” be / get used to doing 意為

“已習(xí)慣了做某事”。例如：

I used to live here. 我過去住這兒。(現(xiàn)在不再住這兒)

A watcb is used to tell us time. 手表是用來看時間的。

I'm used to getting up and going to bed early. 我習(xí)慣于

早起早睡。

與would的用法比較：

① wonld與used to都可用來表示過去經(jīng)常性或習(xí)慣性

　 的動作，常�？梢該Q用。例如：

　 When we were boys we used to / would go swimming

　 every summer. 小時候，每到夏天我們都要去游泳。

② would 與 used to 都不能用來表示動作發(fā)生的具體頻

　 度或具體的一段時間。

③ used to 可指過去的狀態(tài)或情況，would則不能。例

　 如：

　 School children used to know the story of how Abra-

　 ham Lincoln walked five miles to return a penny he'd

　 overcharged a customer. (不能用would)過去，學(xué)校

　 的孩子們都知道亞伯拉罕·林肯是怎樣步行5英里

　 去退還多收顧客的1便士的故事。

④ would 表示反復(fù)發(fā)生的動作。如果某一動作沒有反

　 復(fù)性，就不能用would。只能用used to。例如：

　 And ftom that day on, as soon as the table was

　 cleared and the dishes were gone, Mother would dis-

　 appear into her sewing room to practice. 從那天起，只

　 要碗盤撤掉、飯桌一清理干凈，媽媽就馬上躲進(jìn)做針

　 線活的房間練習(xí)起來。(具有反復(fù)性)

⑤ used to 表示過去經(jīng)常性或習(xí)慣性的動作或狀態(tài)現(xiàn)在

　 已經(jīng)結(jié)束，would 則表示有可能再發(fā)生。例如：

　 People used to believe that the earth was flat. 過去，

　 人們總以為地球是扁平的。(現(xiàn)在已不再這樣認(rèn)為)

　 He would go to the park as soon as he was free. 過

　 去，他一有空就去公園。(現(xiàn)在有可能再去)

[考例l]Mother ____ us stories when we were

young.

　　 A. was used to teIl　　 B. is used to teIJing

　　 C. used to tell　　 D. used to telling

[考查目標(biāo)]本題考查含有 used 短語的用法。

[答案與解析]C　 選項A表示“被用來做某事”；選項B

表示“已習(xí)慣于做某事”；選項c表示“過去常做”；選項

D搭配不對。該題應(yīng)意為“過去常做某事”，要用used

to do sth句型。

[考點2]They not only learn how to assist disabled peo-

pie。but also learn the importance Of cooperating to reach

their goals in life. 他們不僅學(xué)會了怎樣幫助殘疾人，還

知道了在生活中若想實現(xiàn)目標(biāo)。合作是非常重要的。

not only…but also是連詞，可以連接主語、謂語、賓語、

狀語等。要注意的是，當(dāng)它連接兩個句子的時候，not

only放在句首時后面的句子要用倒裝。

[考例2](2004上海) ____ snacks and drinks, but

they also brought cards for entertainment when they

had a picnic in the forest.

　　 A. Not only they brought

　　 B. Not only did they bring

　　 C. Not only brought they

　　 D. Not only they did bring

[考查目標(biāo)]本題考查not only...but also連接兩個句子

的用法。

且not only居句首時后面的句子要用倒裝，而且是部分

倒裝。

[考點3]She was telling lIS about her sick mother when

[考例3](2004上海)Jasmine was holidaying with her

family in a wildlife park ____ she was bitten on the

leg by a lion.

　　 A. when　 B. while　 C. since　 D. once

[考查目標(biāo)] 本題考查考生對狀語從句與并列句的運用

能力與辨別能力。

[答案與解析]A　 本句的重點是要抓住“was / were

doing sth when + 一般過去時態(tài)”這一結(jié)構(gòu)，表達(dá)的含義

為“正在干某事的時候突然……”。

[考點4]Now that we are developing new technology at

such a high pace, the true challenge is to find new ways

of using it. 既然我們已經(jīng)在以這么快的速度發(fā)展新技

術(shù)。那么真正的挑戰(zhàn)就是找到新的方法去利用這些新

技術(shù)。

本句要注意now that的用法。now that表示“既然”、

“由于”。引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，比較口語化，在口語中，還

可省去that。例如：

Now that you have grown up, you must stop this child-

ish behavior. 既然已經(jīng)長大，你就必須停止這種幼稚行

為。

Now that you have grown up, you should not rely on

your parents. 既然已經(jīng)長大，你就不應(yīng)該再依靠父母。

[考例4](NMET 1999) ____ you've got a chance,

you might as well make full use of it.

　　 A. Now that　　 B. After

　　 C. Although　　 D. As soon as

[考查目標(biāo)] 本題考查連詞的用法。

[答案與解析]A　 引導(dǎo)不同類型的狀語從句，則要根據(jù)

全句的意思選擇適當(dāng)?shù)倪B詞。選項A中的now that表

示“既然”，用于引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句；選項B中的 after

表示“在……之后”，用于引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句；選項C中

的although表示“雖然”，用于引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句；選項

D中的as soon as表示“一……就……”，用于引導(dǎo)時間

狀語從句。本題意為“既然你已經(jīng)有了機會，就應(yīng)該充

分利用”。

[牛刀小試3]

　 (1) wish + that + 主語 + 過去時態(tài)的某一種：
