1.At present the terrorists weren’t concerned about the request concerning how the government officials _______(乞求) for less cruelty would be released .
2.Anyone hearing about the escaped prisoner _______(被判刑) to 10 years in prison will be personally rewarded by the judge with money from the fund which has been created not long ago.
学生答题情况:1.误填 begged 2. was sentenced (正确答案应该是:1.begging;2.sentenced)显然,学生所填的这两个答案都是错误的,其根本原因就是因为句子太长而搞不清楚句中要填的是谓语动词还是非谓语动词。既然方向都不清楚,那么“目的地”就肯定是错的了。
解题思路:1.先分析句中所缺的是谓语还是非谓语。在判断前,必须搞清楚也原句的主谓结构,主语是the terrorists 谓语部分是weren’t concerned about ,宾语是the request, concerning how ...一直到句末是定语,在concerning后又接了一个从句,从句中的主语是the government officials ,谓语是would be released 。由此可见,句中并不缺谓语,填上去的动词应该是一个作定语的非谓语动词,因此要填begging;
2.该句的主语是:Anyone,hearing about...是定语 ,谓语是will be ... rewarded ,后面which 引导的是一个定语从句;由此可见,句中并不缺谓语,缺的正是非谓语。根据句意应填上表被动意义的过去分词,在此作后置定语。
小结:当遇到一个长难句时,首先要学会“削枝留干找主谓”,确定主谓再找附加成份,这样句中的动词是谓语还是非谓语就一目了然了。
答题误区:审题不够认真,急于求成,题目还没有读完、结构还没有搞清楚就草草下笔。
