3、几组容易混淆的连词或词组。
We have
been good friends ________we joined the same ping-pong team. [陕西省]
A.
after
B.
before
C.
since
D.
until
[答案]C。[解析] 主句是现在完成时,从句是一般过去时,填A、B、D三项其主句都不会用现在完成时。用since表示“自……以来,就……”。
None of
the shoes in the shop fit me well. They are ______________too big______________
too small. [昆明市] www.zk5u.co
A. both;
and B.
either; or C.
neither; nor D.
not only; but also
[答案]B。[解析] 在前句中已经给出了一个前提“商店里的鞋都不适合我”。both...and“……和……都”;either...or“或者……或者”;neither...nor"既不……也不”;not only..but
also“不但……而且”。所以很容易推断出“它们(这些鞋)或者太大,或者太小。”
Please
take the medicine three times a day, _______ it won’t work well. ( 浙江)
A.
and B. but C.
or D. so
解析:这四个单词都是连词, but表示转折;so有因此之意。and和or
都可以用于祈使句,用and,整个句子相当于if you…, you’ll…; 用or相当于if you don’t…, you’ll…。答案:C
Hurry up,
Jack. We have to get to the station before 11:45 _____ we can catch the 12:00
train.
( 南通)
A.
since B. after
C. as soon as D. so
that
解析:本题的前三项都是表示时间的连词,因此不符合句意,so that表明“为了”、“便于”,引导目的状语从句。答案:D

new film is on these days. Shall we go to the cinema together, Lucy and Lily?

I will go with you because one of us must be at home to help our father in the
garden.

A.
Either, nor B. Either,
or C. Neither, nor D.

解析:选项A不是一个固定搭配,C表示“既不……也不……”,选项D表示“……和……都……”,不符合句子的意思,B项则是一个选择的连词。答案:B
