一些中学英语易混结构分析(二)
7. To get an education , _______________ .
A. one must work hard B. what you need is to work hard
C. working hard is needed
不定式作状语放在句首，动作的执行者应当是句子的主语。换言之，当不定式放在句首时，句子的主语应能做不定式动作的执行者。此题选项中只有A项中的one 能做get 的执行者。One get an education,… ；What you need和working hard 都不能做get 的执行者。
8. Thirty-three people were already dead in a traffic accident ; __________ .
A. twelve being old men
B. twelve of them were old men
C. twelve of whom were old men
D. twelve were old men
此题中的分号（；）很重要，后一部分起进一步说明作用。正确选项为B。如果换成逗号 的话，则选择C，理解为定语从句。
9． Was it during the Second World War ________ he died ?
A. that B. during which time C. in which D. when
It 作代词 表示时间或地点与关系副词when 、where引导的定语从句或强调结构相混。此题应当填A，为强调结构，但有好多学生选择C或D，把句子看成定语从句，其实判断强调结构并不难，把强调结构it is (was)…that ( who )…去掉，如果剩下的部分句子结构完整，说明就是强调结构，如果不完整说明是从句。此句去掉强调结构句子成为during the Second World War he died (变为正常词序 He died during the Second World War ) 句子结构完整，说明此句为强调结构。此句如果把during 一词去掉 ，句意就变了，it was the Second World War .it 作代词，表示时间，意思为：时间是第二次世界大战，横线处应当填 when 或in which 。又如：
It was evening ______ he went to the office .
A. when B. that 此句选择A，如果evening 换成in the evening ，则选择B。
10. Hardly had she seen her father _________ she ran to him .
A. than B. when C. as D. that
此句是倒装句，往往与 that 从句相混，应注意hardly 与 when 连用。
