TOEFL语法笔记王海波代词95%为错,情态动词永远不错,first 划线永远对,虚拟语气不考。

填空的基本做法:1 先找句子的分段点(即连词,分词,介词和标点符号)将句子分成记几段,选择要看的那部分句子,即只关注与空格相关的那部分句子。

句法:{①简单句: S+V②并列句:分句+并列句子+;句子+。

并列句划为简单句:句子,and/all/but+句子。

③复合句:主句+从句划为简单句2 简化句子简化原则:①adv/数/冠可以划掉②介词短语可以划掉③修饰名词的adj/n可以划掉④做状语的分词短语可以划掉⑤与空格无关的句子可以很划掉 p65-5/83 分析句子结构,判断空格中所缺的句子成分。

捷径:可直接套用句型和结构 p53-14 ,倒装句答案的首字母为系动词或助动词p92-14 * ——+n为There be 句型p210-74 区分四选项,结合句意和语感确定答案。

句子→简单句→主干→判断→选答案主语,——,谓宾。

100%考↓插入语定语从句或省略的定语从句定语从句中主和系可以同时省略which+be/that+be/who+be 可以省略①定语从句②n③adj短语/分词短语/介词改错做题要点:1 语法与句意并重,一定要通读全句(做题思想)。

2 一边读句意,一边思考划线部分的语法知识点是否正确。

3 熟悉掌握各种错误类型。

4 做题 ABCD要看全,选择一个最明显的错误,最好有明确的理由。

填空的固定句型和结构一主句专一结构 1-2※句子,句子。

为错任何句子只有一个主句,句子之间必须有连词。

※任何从句都是正常语序。

二谓语专一结构 3-4任何一个句子只有一个谓语,谓语动词之间一定要有连词连接。

※主谓……谓……错主谓……,谓……。

错三平行结构 5-6X and YX ,Y and Z 各元素必须一致 to do ,do and do 。

be done ,done and done。

※——,——,and——。

四 what 结构 7-8缩合连接代词(1)what =the thing that =all that thing 由句意定7 中what =the corp that 8 中what =the place that(2)what 在前后句中必须同时做成分 what =the thing that(3)n+what 错 n+the thing that √※prep+what+SVO 错 what →which√(4)what 引导的句子等于一个名词,可以做主语,宾语,表语。

目录第一章名词 (2第二章形容词 (13第三章副词 (19第四章介词 (23第五章动词 (28第六章代词 (41第七章简单句 (45第八章并列句 (50第九章主从复合句 (54第十章时态 (62第十一章一致原则 (65第十二章倒装 (69第十三章被动语态 (72第十四章常考关于It的句式 (74 第十五章虚拟语气 (77第一章名词正确区分可数名词与不可数名词、正确选择可数名词单复数、名词之前的限定词与名词数(单复数之间的关系以及名词在句子中承担的成分是TOEFL中常考的内容第一节可数名词考点一单复数可数名词与不可数名词的典型区别在于前者有单数和复数两种形式。

TOEFL考试中经常在不可数名词后面加了s,变为复数形式,其实这是再考你辨别可数名词和不可数名词的能力。

TOEFL中还经常考可数名词是采用单数还是复数, 这往往要通过句意或者其他的一些指示词来辨别。

例如:various colors(various是各种各样的,后面当然要用复数形式下面我们会讲一下复数形式。

复数形式简而言之就是在单数词尾加-s,但实际上细分起来还有一些具体的规则:1.结尾是s, o, x, ch, sh 的词, 加-es, 如:buses, tomatoes, faxes, matches, brushes2.结尾是“辅音字母+y”的词, 去掉y加-ies, 如: factory-factories3.结尾是f, fe的词, 去掉f, fe加-ves, 如: half-halves, knife-knives4.结尾是o, f 的词也有一些加-s, 如: photos, beliefs, chiefs例题:(1 Flower have long been cultivated and bred for their beauty and their fragrance.A B C D答案:A应改为:Flowers解释:表泛指时,可数名词可用不定冠词加单数或直接用复数,因谓语是复数,故改为复数(2 Doctor are discovering that there is a strong psychological component to chronicA B C Dpain.答案:A应改为:Doctors解释:表泛指时,可数名词用冠词加单数或直接用复数,因谓语动词是复数,故名词也用复数考点二复数形式特例这部分主要考察学生对特殊复数形式的记忆,作为考题并不过多的出现,但是在题干中的出现率却非常高,因此熟悉下列一些词的复数形式有助于理解题意1.单复数词形相同如: people, fish, Chinese(某国人, aircraft, means, series, species,sheep, deer, aircraft 等2.外来词保留了原来的复数形式, 这一点需要重点掌握, 如:basis-bases analysis-analyses crisis-crisesmedium(媒体-media datum(数据-data curriculum(课程-curriculalarva(幼虫-larvae criterion(标准-criteria phenomenon(现象-phenomena3.通常只以复数形式出现的词语, 如:clothes trousers compasses(圆规 scales(天平 savings(储蓄,statistics(统计数据, headquarters(总部,4.复数形式有特殊意义的词语, 如:goods(货物, manners(礼貌, troops(军队, authorities(当局5 不规则的名词复数child - children mouse - mice louse - licetooth - teeth foot - feet6.注意:有一些结尾是-s的词, 但是要当作单数看待, 如: physics, politics, mathematics是表示学科的不可数名词例题:(1 With the incorporation of jazz history into current academic curricula, leadingA B Cjazz musicians are now founding on the faculties of several universities.D(2Like some other running birds, the sanderling lacks a back toe and has a three-toed feetA B C D答案:D应改为:foot解释:feet是foot的复数形式, 不定冠词a 之后应接可数名词的单数, 故将feet 改为单数词汇:sanderling: 三趾滨鹬第二节限定词名词究竟要用单数还是复数, 与名词之前的限定词有很大关系, 限定词通常分如下几类:1.之后肯定接单数:a /an, every, one, another, each, either, this, that, such a, many a, etc.例句:Each of them has two books.You can read either book. (两本书你可以随便读一本2.之后肯定接复数:these, those, many, such, other,大于one的数词(ten, hundred, thousand, million…,a few /few /fewer /fewest, a (great /good / large /small number of, several,one of, all (of, some /any (of, most(of, a lot of, lots of, the rest of, plenty of3.之后既可接单数又可接复数: the, no, his, her, their, my, etc注意:这几类词大多不能同时使用考点一否定限定词no(1 no既可用于可数名词复数前又可用于单数前, 表示否定意义. 例如:No flowers in the garden. 花园里没有花.No one is here.(2 no与否定副词not的区别是改错题的常见考点。

托福考试语法结构知识点

托福考试语法结构知识点

托福考试语法结构知识点托福考试是一个评估非英语母语者英语能力的标准化测试,其中语法结构是考试的一个重要部分。

掌握语法结构的知识点对于正确理解和运用英语语言至关重要。

本文将介绍托福考试中常见的语法结构知识点,帮助考生更好地备考。

一、动词时态和语态1. 一般现在时:用于陈述普遍事实、经常重复的动作或客观真理。

例如:Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius.2. 一般过去时:用于过去发生的动作或状态。

例如:I watched a movie yesterday.3. 现在进行时:表示正在进行的动作或现阶段的状态。

例如:She is reading a book now.4. 过去进行时:表示过去某一时刻正在进行的动作。

例如:The book was written by Mark Twain.二、主谓一致1. 单复数主谓一致:主语是单数时,谓语动词要用单数形式;主语是复数时,谓语动词要用复数形式。

例如:She walks to school every day. They walk to school every day.2. 近距离主谓一致:当主语和谓语之间有介词短语或从句时,要根据主语而不是介词短语或从句来确定谓语动词的单复数形式。

例如:The book, along with its companion, is on the shelf.三、条件句1. 第一型条件句:表示真实条件和其可能的结果。

例如:If it rains,I will stay at home.2. 第二型条件句:表示对现在或未来假设的不太可能或不可能的条件及其可能的结果。

Why doesn't the man accept the woman's offer?Part CQuestions 40-42 Listen to part of a talk in an architecture class.Today, we are going to take a look at the development of the skyscraper. We'll start with some buildings in Chicago. One of the circumstances that led Chicago to become home to some of thebuildings now considered the prototypes for later skyscrapers was this: In 1871, there was a great fire that destroyed much of the city. It was that tragic fire that cleared the way for a new kind of city that used the new building techniques and new materials developed during the early 1800s.One of these new structures was the Home Insurance Building, completed in 1885. It was ten storeys high. Now granted, that's no higher than some of the early skyscrapers in New York City. What made Chicago's Home Insurance Building important is that it had true skyscraper instruction with an internal metal skeleton that carried the weight of the brick exterior. This metal-support system alongwith the earlier development of the elevator were the two innovations that made the later very tall industrial buildings possible.Chicago's Reliance Building was another important building in the development of the skyscraper. It showed the architects' understanding of the possibilities of mental frame construction by eliminating walls and opening up the sides as a glass box. It was the first expression of the skyscraper as the glass shelf framed in the metal grid.40. Why does the professor mention the fire of 1871?41. What was important about the Home Insurance Building?42. What point does the professor make about the Reliance Building?Questions 43-46 Listen to a lecture given in a mass communications class.It was an Italian inventor who created the first wireless device for setting out radio signalsin 1895. But not until the American inventor Lee De Forest built the first amplifying vacuumtube in 1906 did we get the first radio as we know it. And the first actual radio broadcast wasmade on Christmas Eve of 1906. That's when someone working from an experimentalstation in Brand Rock, Massachusetts, arranged the program with two short musicalselections of poem and brief holiday greeting. The broadcast was heard by wirelessoperators on ships with a radio through several hundreds miles. The following year, DeForest began regular radio broadcasts in New York. These programs were similar to muchwhat we hear on radio today. In that, De Forest played only music. But because there werestill no home radio receivers, De Forest's audiences consisted only of wireless operators onships in New York Harbor. There is no doubt that radio broadcasting was quite a novelty inthose days, but it took a while to catch on commercially. Why? Hmm, for the simple factthat only a few people, in fact, only those who tinkered with wireless telegraphs as a hobbyowned receivers. It wasn't until the 1920s that someone envisioned mass appeal for radio.This was radio pioneer David Sarnoff who predicted that one day there would be a radioreceiver in every home.43. What is the talk mainly about?44. Why were early radio broadcasts heard by such a small audience?45. According to the talk, who owned the receivers in the early days of radio?46. According to the talk, what did David Sarnoff predict about radios?Questions 47-50 Listen to part of a talk in an astronomy classThe origin of Earth's moon, the largest moon in the solar system, is still something of amystery. There are some theories about its origin however. Now, keep in mind that a theoryof the moon's origin has to be consistent with two important facts. The first fact is that theEarth contains a lot of iron, most of it has an iron core. But the moon contains practically noiron. The second fact is that other than the difference in iron content, the moon and Earth arecomposed of accentually the same minerals, a similarity not shared with any other planet ormoon in our solar system.One of the earliest theories of the moon's origin, I called it the Capture Theory, proposes that the moon was somehow captured by Earth's gravitational force. T上一页[1] [2] [3] [4] 下一页上一页[1] [2] [3] [4] 下一页1999年5月托福听力考试试题原文his theory is improbable, however, because it assumes that the moon and Earth formed in different parts of the solar system. If this was true you would expect the moon's composition to be much differentfrom Earth's composition, just as all the other planets in the solar system are so different from Earth.A second theory of the moon'sorigin is more promising. It is sometimes referred to as the Mars Theory, because according to this theory, when Earth was still molten, it was struck by a planet about the size of Mars. The impact caused the cores of the two planets to melt together and chunks of Earth's crust to be thrown out into space. These chunks came together to form the moon. Now, remember, Earth's crust is low in iron, because theiron is in Earth's core, but high in various other minerals. This then accounts for why there is little iron but lots of other minerals on the moon.47. What is the talk mainly about?48. According to the professor, what characteristic of Earth's moon should a theory of its origin be able to explain?49. Why is the second theory sometimes referred to as the Mars Theory?50.
