Now
everyone here was
working hard and
doing what they
could _______ more
money.
A. make B. to make C.
making D. made
【答案與分析】
此題容易誤選A。有的同學(xué)一看到空格前的情態(tài)動(dòng)詞
could 就斷定此處應(yīng)填動(dòng)詞原形 make。其實(shí)正確答案應(yīng)是B,此句為省略句,即在
could 后省略了動(dòng)詞 do,若把句子補(bǔ)完整應(yīng)為Now
everyone here was
working hard and
doing what they
could do to make more
money,即句中的不定式短語(yǔ)(to make more
money)是用作目的狀語(yǔ)的,而不是與情態(tài)動(dòng)詞(
could)一起構(gòu)成謂語(yǔ)。
【類似考題】
(1) My
parents did what they
could _____ my aunt and
uncle.
A. help B. to help C.
helping D. helped
(2) He read what he
could _____ his
knowledge.
A.
widen B. to
widen C.
widening D. widened
以上兩題均選B,即選不定式,且此不定式為目的狀語(yǔ)。但是,同學(xué)們?nèi)魮?jù)此形成思維定勢(shì),也會(huì)麻煩。為此,請(qǐng)?jiān)倏磧深}:
(3) He ran as fast as he
could ____to
catch the bus.
A. hope B. to hope C.
hoping D.
hoped
此題的最佳答案不是B,而是C,其中的現(xiàn)在分詞短語(yǔ)
hoping to
catch the bus 用作伴隨狀語(yǔ),即一邊跑一邊希望能趕上早班車。但是,如果選B,將 to hope to
catch the bus 視為目的狀語(yǔ)行不行呢?不行。因?yàn)椤八疵嘏堋蹦康氖恰盀榱粟s上公共汽車”,而不是“為了希望趕上公共汽車”,換句話說(shuō),將“希望”作為“目的”不妥。因?yàn)橥瑯拥脑颍旅嬉活}也應(yīng)選
hoping:
He
studied as hard as he
could _____ to
enter a good
college.
A. hope B. to hope C.
hoping D.
hoped
(4) He
spent every minute he
could ______
foreign languages.
A.
study B. to
study C.
studying D. studied
此題也應(yīng)選C,但是,它與上題選現(xiàn)在分詞
hoping 表伴隨有所不同,此題的
studying 其實(shí)與其前的動(dòng)詞
spend 有關(guān),即套用的是“
spend + 時(shí)間或金錢 + (in)
doing sth”這一句型。
