易 错 点 拨 自我完善•误区备考

1.It's the first time...句式

[应用1] (1)I thought her nice and honest ______ I met her.

A.first time          B.for the first time       C.the first time         D.by the first time

答案:C

解析:the first time可引导时间状语从句。

(2)-It’s the second time that I ______ to Shanghai.

-What great changes! It’s ten years since I ______ it last time.

A.have been; left            B.had been;left          C.am; had left           D.come; had left

答案:A

解析:在表时间的句式It be+time+since从句中出现了时间状语last time,故从句应用一般过去时,排除C、D两项,结合It be+the+序数词+time(that)从句时态特殊要求,可知A项为最佳选项。

2. besides的用法

[应用2] (1)I don’t mind picking up your things from the store. ______, the walk will do me good.

A.Sooner or later             B.Still               C.In time           D.Besides

答案:D

解析:besides副词,意为“况且,再说”。该句意为“我很乐意去商店把你的东西取回来。再说走一走对我自己也有好处”。根据题意,D项正确。

(2)(2007•全国Ⅱ)Some people choose jobs for other reasons ______ money these days.

A.for              B.except          C.besides            D.with

答案:C

解析:考查考生对介词的理解。根据句意“在如今,人们选择工作除了钱还有其他原因”,表示“除了”,只有except与besides有此意。except为排除在外、不包括,而besides为包括在内,故用besides.

3. as far as...的用法

[应用3] (1)______ I can see, there is only one possible way to keep away from the danger.

A.As long as           B.As far as           C.Just as           D.Even if

答案:B

解析:逗号前后并非表示条件、让步关系,也不是用来加强语气。应用as far as I can see来缓和语气,表示“在我看来,只有一种可能脱离危险的办法”。

(2)______ you can do what you like.

A.As long as I’m concerned          B.As far as I’m concerned

C.As far as I’m concerning           D.As soon as I’m concerned

答案:B

解析:本题考查了固定短语的用法。此句可译为:就我而言,你可以做你所喜欢做的。as far as one is concerned是固定短语,也可写成so far as one is concerned,表示“就……而言”。
