重点句型与高考
1. It took more than two decades, though, until 1951, for colour broadcasts to begin in the USA.
A. It takes sb. some time to do sth. 此句型表示“某人做某事需花费多少时间”。句中take表示“花费”。 如:
1) _______ environmental damage is done, it takes many years for the ecosystem (生态系统) to recover.
A. Even if B. If only C. While D. Once 答案D。一旦环境被破坏,生态系统需要经历多年才能恢复正常。 B.句中 though是副词,表示“然而”,通常用于句末。如: 1)---you do not seem to be quite yourself today. What is wrong? ---Oh, I am suffering from a cold. Nothing serious,______ A. though B. indeed C. anyhow D. yet
答案A。这个题目考察的是though的用法,意思是“我感染了感冒,但是不严重”。though作副词,表转折,相当于however,一般放在句末。也就是说,这里的though是副词,副词一般用于句末,而做连词的时候,一般不用于句末。yet在表示虽然,但是的时候,是连词,而不是副词 。
