典型高考英语陷阱题详解·状语从句
1. “May I go and play with Dick this afternoon, Mum?” “No, you can’t go out _________ your work is being done.” A. before B. until C. as D. the moment 【陷阱】容易误选B，误认为这是考查 not…until…结构。
【分析】最佳答案选 C。句中的 your work is being done 表明“你正在做作业”，选 as 表原因。
2. “I’m going to the post office.” “_________ you’re there, can you get me some stamps?” A. As B. While 【陷阱】容易误选A。
C. Because
D. If
【分析】最佳答案选 B。尽管 as 和 while 均可用作从属连词引导时间状语从句，表示“当……的时候”，但两者有一个重要区别，就是这样用的 as 从句的谓语不能是状态动词。当然，如果 as 不是表示“当……的时候”，其谓语是完全可以用状态动词的。如： I went to bed early, as I was exhausted. 我很累了，所以很早就上床睡了。(此句中的 as 表示原因，意为“因为”、“由于”)
请做以下两题，答案均选 while，不选as：
(1) _________ you are at home alone, please don’t leave the door open. A. While B. As C. Before D. How (2) _________ you are alone with her, tell her that you like her. A. While
B. As
C. After
D. How
3. After the war, a new school building was put up _________ there had once been a theatre. A. that B. when C. which D. where 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】最佳答案选 D。where 在此引导地点状语从句，其意为“(在)……的地方”。请做以下类似试题(答案均选 where)：
(1) The famous scientist grew up _________ he was born and in 1930 he came to Shanghai. A. when B. whenever C. where D. wherever (2) She found her calculator _________ she lost it.
A. where B. while C. in which D. that (3) You should make it a rule to leave things _________ you can find them again. A. when B. where C. then D. which
(4) When you read the book, you’d better make a mark _________ you have any questions. A. at which B. at where C. the place where (5) You should let your children play _________ you can see them. A. where
B. when
C. in which
(6) Now he works in the factory _________ his father used to work. A. where B. when C. in which
4. The visitor asked to have his picture taken _________ stood the famous tower. A. that B. at which 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
C. when
D. where D. where D. that D. That
【分析】最佳答案选 D。此题与上面一题有些相似，但又有所不同：相似的是，where 均表示“在……的地方”，均用以引导地点状语从句；不同的是，此题还涉及倒装，即此句的主语是 the famous tower，谓语是 stood，正常词序为 where the famous tower stood，使用倒装是为了保持句子平衡，避免头重脚轻。
5. They kept trying _________ they must have known it was hopeless. A. if B. because 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
C. when
D. where
【分析】最佳答案选 C。when 在此的意思不是“当……的时候”，而是“尽管”、“虽然”的意思。又如：
He walks when he might take a taxi. 尽管他可以坐出租车，但他却走路。
He stopped trying when he might have succeeded next time. 尽管他本来下次就可以成功的了，但他却停止努力了。
The boy was restless when he should have listened to the teacher carefully. 这男孩子本来应该专心听老师讲的，但他却坐立不安。
有许多同学只知道 when 表示“当……的时候”，而不知道它还有其他许多意思，除上面提到的表示“尽管”、“虽然”外，when 还可表示“既然”、“考虑到”。请做下面的试题(答案选D)： Why do you want a new job _________ you’ve got such a good one already? A. that B. where C. which D. When
6. He was about to tell me the secret _________ someone patted him on the shoulder.
A. as B. until C. when D. while 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】最佳答案选 C。when 意为“这时(突然)”，主要用于某一动作突然发生于另一动作正在进行或刚要发生之时。此时的 when 可以连用副词 suddenly，也可以不连用它，但值得注意的是，同学们不能单独用 suddenly 来代替 when，如下面各题的答案选A，不选B：
(1) I was about to go out _________ the telephone rang. A. when B. suddenly C. as soon as (2) We were swimming in the lake _________ the storm started. A. when B. suddenly C. until
D. directly D. before
(3) She was walking down the road _________ she heard someone shouting for help. A. when B. suddenly C. until D. Before
7. The fire went on for quite some time _________ it was brought under control. A. when B. since 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
C. after
D. before
【分析】最佳答案选 D。before 意为“在……之前”，句意是“大火在得到控制之前燃烧了相当一段时间”。类似地，以下两题也选 before：
(1) He made a mistake, but then he corrected the situation _________ it got worse. A. until
B. when
C. before
D. as
(2) Someone called me up in the middle of the night, but they hung up _________ I could answer the phone. A. as B. since C. until D. before

8. Mother asked me to take more money _________ something unexpected should happen. A. in case B. so that 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
C. in order that
D. when
【分析】最佳答案选 A。in case 起连词作用，用以引导状语从句，主要有两种意思：一是表示条件，意为“如果”、“万一”；二是表示“目的”，意为“以防”、“免得”。如以下各题也都选 in case：
(1) _________ I forget, please remind me about it. A. In case B. So that C. In order that (2) Take your umbrella just _________ it rains. A. in case B. so that C. in order that (3) Be quiet _________ you should wake the baby. A. in case B. so that C. in order that (4) Take a hat with you in case the sun is very hot. A. in case B. so that C. in order that (5). I’ll keep his address _________ I need it. A. so that
9. “Shall Mary come and play computer games?” “No, _________ she has finished her homework.” A. when B. since C. unless D. as soon as 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】最佳答案选 C。此句为省略句，答句句首的 No 表明其后省略的是一个否定句，全句补充完整为：She can’t play computer games unless she has finished her homework. 请做类似试题(答案均选B)：
(1) “Would you mind my sitting here with you?” “No, _________ you aren’t too noisy.” A. when B. if C. unless D. as soon as
B. in order that
C. in case
D. When D. when D. when D. when D. when
典型高考英语陷阱题详解·虚拟语气
1. I forget where I read the article, or I _________ it to you now. A. will show B. would show C. am going to show D. am showing 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】正确答案选B。根据上文的语境可知句中的 or 隐含有一个虚拟的条件，即 or=if I didn’t forget where I read the article（要是我没忘记我在哪儿读过这篇文章的话——但事实上忘了）。
2. “It looks as if he were drunk.” “So it does. _________.”
A. He’d better give up drinking B. He shouldn’t have drunk so much C. Health is more important than drink D. I wonder why he is always doing so 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选，主要是受句中 drunk 一词的影响。
【分析】最佳答案为D。关键信息是It looks as if he were drunk 中的虚拟语气，句子既然用了虚拟语气，也就是说，“他喝醉了”不是事实，只是他的言行好像是醉了，所以此题的最佳答案是D。
3. “Mary looks hot and dry” “So _________ you if you had so high a fever.”
A. do B. are C. will D. would
【陷阱】容易误选A或C。选A者，认为前后两句的动词性质应一致；选C者，认为其后带有if 条件状语从句，从语气上看，主句应用将来时态。 【分析】此题最佳答案为D。分析如下：
(1) “so + 助动词 + 主语”是一个很有用的结构，它表示“……也一样”时。如： He likes to watch TV, and so do I. 他喜欢看电视，我也一样。
When animals and plants disappear, so will man. 当动植物消失的时候，人类也会随之消失。 (2) 由于空格后的 if 条件状语从句的谓语用的是虚拟语气（这是很重要的信息），所以主句要用 would 而不用 will，即答案应选D。
(3)
4. “He will come tomorrow.” “But I’d rather he _________ the day after tomorrow.”
A. will come B. is coming C. came D. had come 【陷阱】容易误选A或B。根据上文的 He will come tomorrow 以及下文的时间状语 the day after tomorrow 似乎都表明空白处应填一个一般将来时态。
【分析】但此题的最佳答案是 C。按照英语习惯，would rather 后接that 从句时，从句谓语通常要用虚拟语气，即用过去式表示现在或将来，用过去完成时表示过去。又如： I’d rather you left right now. 我宁愿你现在就离开。
I would much rather it was forgotten. 我更愿这事被遗忘掉。 I’d rather he hadn’t told me about it. 我宁愿他没告诉我这事。 请再做以下试题(答案均为B)：
(1) “Shall I come tomorrow ?” “I’d rather you _________.” A. won’t B. didn’t C. don’t (2) “I’ve told him about it.” “But I’d rather you _________.” A. didn’t B. hadn’t C. don’t (3) “He will take you as well.” “But I’d rather he _________.” A. won’t
B. didn’t
C. doesn’t
D. wouldn’t D. wouldn’t D. wouldn’t
5. All the doctors in the hospital insisted that he _________ badly wounded and that he _________ at once.
A. should be; be operated on B. were; must be operated on C. was; should be operated D. was; be operated on 【陷阱】几个干扰项均有可能误选。
【分析】最佳答案选 D。insist后的从句谓语有时用“should+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气，有时不用，具体要看该谓语动词所表示的含义。一般说来，若该谓语动词所表示的动作尚未发生，或尚未成为事实，则用虚拟语气；若该谓语动词所表示的动作已经发生，或已经成为事实，则要用陈述语气。分析上题的句意，可知只有选D最合适。请做以下类似试题（答案选B）：
(1) The patient insisted that he _________ ill and _________ to the hospital. A. wasn’t, wasn’t sent B. wasn’t, shouldn’t be sent
