PART4GRAMMAR&VOCABULARY
theboardofdirectors,hedidn'tdeny__________breakingtheagreement.
解析:本题考查动名词的逻辑主语。动名词可以有自己的逻辑(意义)主语,一
般可以用名词所有格Tom,s,代词宾格如him(口语),书面语情况下一般用物主代词his,their。本题选
C,但我还是要吐槽,因为根本就不需要多此一举添加
his,hedidn'tdenybreakingthe
agreement完全正确,比原题要精简地道许多,从写作角度来看,his根本是多余的,当
然纯粹考察语法的话选C。
licizedpartfunctionsasa(n)____
___.tive(同位语)ment.
解析:此题恐怕是最受争议的题目了,有人认为选A,有人认为选D。据目前来看,选
D,具体讲解有待更新
fthefollowingisacompoundword(复合词)?
解析:首先要知道什么是复合词。
Acompoundisawordthatconsistsofmore
thanonefreemorpheme。所谓morpheme词素是最小的音义结合体,其最大的特点是不
能再被分割为更小的音义结合体。而free
morpheme是指能独立存在使用的词素,boundmorpheme则是必须依附于其他单位的词
素,比如前缀后缀属于boundmorpheme,如pre-,-ment,在单词shipment里,ship就
是free
morpheme,ment则是bound。因此四个选项里只有deadline是由两个freemorpheme构
成(dead+line),其他三个都有Bound
morpheme比如non,ness,mis等-。
fthefollowingsentencescontainssubjunctivemood?
sistedthathersongethomebefore5o'clock?
dtodrivetowork,butnowshetakesthecitymetro.
raightahead,anddon'tturntillthesecondtrafficlights.
llcancelhisflightifhecannotgethisvi
sabyFriday.解析:subjunctive
mood是指虚拟语气,四个选项里只有A的insist属于虚拟语气用法,其中that从句里
省略了should。
-followingdeterminerscanbeusedwithbothpluralanduncountablenounsEXCEPT
解析:限定词的用法是近几年专四的热门考点,诸如some,many,both,all,each等
用法究竟如何还是希望大家多翻阅语法书和词典。这道题看似有点难度,也许你从来不
知道哪个限定词可以接名词复数和不可数名词,但好在备选项里每个单词你都可以去接
名词试试就知道了,比如more
money,moretrees;enoughmoney,enoughtrees;manymoney?,manytrees;suchbigtrees,suchbehavior.所以选
C。

ftheitalicizedpartsindicatesCONTRAST?
nedthedoorandquietlywentin.
ialikesmusicandSamisfondofsports.
toveragainandyou'me
whatarrogant,andIdon'tlikethis.
解析:首先要明白and不一定表示并列。A,C里的and表示先后;D里的and表示递
进;只有B里的and表示对比。
fthefollowingCANNOTbeusedasanominalsubstitute(名词替代
词)?r
解析:估计不少学生看到名词替代词这个术语,一开始都吓着了,因为压根没听说过,
不过对做这道题目倒无大碍,所谓名词替代词顾名思义就是指能代替名词或名词短语,
避免重复的词,英语里one,
ones,(the)same等都是常见的。比如Therearegoodfilmsaswellasbadone除s.此以外还有
thekind,thesort,比如Slangdisappearsquickly,especiallythejuvenile
sort.还有一些不定代词等比如
all,both,some,anyenough,several,none,many,much,(a)few,(a)little,theother,others,an
other,either,neither等,比如
Canyougetmesomenails??twantanymorefood.I?vehadenough.本题
选D,quarter不是名词替代词。
followingsentencesdefinitelyindicatefuturetimeEXCEPT
sidentiscomingtotheUNn
extweek,
oolpupilswillbehomebynow.
ingtoemailmethenecessaryinformation.解析:这道题目有点意思,既考查时态,又考查
will的用法,A/B/D都是将来时的各种
表达,唯独C的will,看似是将来时标志,其实不然,因为和by
now矛盾,这里will的用法是指youthinksomethingistrue,表说话人自己的看法,比如
ThatwillbeTimcominghomenow;Askanyoneandtheywilltellyouthesamething.本题
选C。
fthefollowingsentencesisgrammaticallyINCORRECT?csaretheart
orscienceofgovernment.
sakin
furniturehasarriv
edundamaged.解析:本题考查主谓一致(agreemen)
t。ten
miles看作整体单数,mumps腮腺炎这个单词就是以s结尾的,不可数名词;furniture
在英语里是不可数名词;A里的politics并不是指政治,而是指政治学(political
science),是不可数名词,但这个用法主要是英式英语。此外,politics表示政治可以看
作不可数名词,也可以看作复数,比如Politicshave
alwaysinterestedme.本题选A。
finthefollowingphrasesindicatesasubject-predicaterelationship?iv
ysofOsca
rWilde
解析:传统语法和现代句法学关于什么是predicate本身就不一样,题目的传统语法
predicate指谓语,是对主语动作或状态的陈述或说明,指出“做什么”是“什么”或“怎么样”。
其次,说实话,我手上所有图书查不到相关语法点讲解subject-predicate
专业资料整理
WORD格式
relationship,谷歌后也没有什么结果,但我知道是选A,游客到来,只是我暂时找不出
任何可靠来源来解释。
fthefollowingitalicizedpartsservesasanappositive?tthemantod
rawback.
tbacktheurgetotellalie.
asalargefamilytosupport.
sreallynothingtofear.
解析:又是同位语?!但是翻遍手上的各类参考书,都没有关于不定式to的同位语用法。
四个选项的用法在语法书里并没有做进一步区分,都成为不定式的定语用法,修饰名词。
不过还是可以看出不太一样的地方,A中名词和不定式是动宾结构the
mandrawback,C和D都是不定式和名词构成动宾tofearnothing,tosupportfamily;而
唯独B,urge(冲动)的内容就是指totellalie撒谎,故为同位语。
fthefollowingisNOTanimperativesentence?

oucouldstaybehind.解析:花了点时间翻遍手头各类语法和用法图书,除了直接
用动词打头,Do/Don't,You/
其他唤名+动词,let类型外,均没有见到D的wish类型。
_______tomorrow,thematchwouldbeputoff.
ned解析:最经典
的If条件虚拟句,说的是将来,应该选A.
fthefollowingsentencesexpressesafact?
dhersonmustbehomebynow.
ssreadingmustgivepoorresults.
'sgettinglate,andImustleavenow.
beworkinglateattheoffice.
解析:很多人都以为选B,其实应该选C。A,B和D都是推测,当然了C里说的fact
其实是指天色不早了。请注意B,不要以为有了must就是fact,情态动词再华丽还是表
示情态,说话人的态度观点,B要改为Carelessreadinggivespoorresults才是fact。
lowingarealldynamicverbs(动态动词)EXCEPT
解析:看到专四考这个题目,我只能呵呵。动态动词是指能够延续持续动作的,比如hit,
run等,相反的则是stativeverb静态动词,比如know.现在进行时是常见检验手段。你
不能说Iamknowingtheanswer,只能说Iknowtheanswer,因此know是静态动词。同
理,题目的A选项remain也是静态动词,其他都是动态动词。

theboardofdirectors,hedidn'tdeny__________breakingtheagreement.
解析:本题考查动名词的逻辑主语。动名词可以有自己的逻辑(意义)主语,一
般可以用名词所有格Tom,s,代词宾格如him(口语),书面语情况下一般用物主代词his,their。本题选
C,但我还是要吐槽,因为根本就不需要多此一举添加
his,hedidn'tdenybreakingthe
agreement完全正确,比原题要精简地道许多,从写作角度来看,his根本是多余的,当
然纯粹考察语法的话选C。
licizedpartfunctionsasa(n)____
___.tive(同位语)ment.
解析:此题恐怕是最受争议的题目了,有人认为选A,有人认为选D。据目前来看,选
D,具体讲解有待更新
fthefollowingisacompoundword(复合词)?
解析:首先要知道什么是复合词。
Acompoundisawordthatconsistsofmore
thanonefreemorpheme。所谓morpheme词素是最小的音义结合体,其最大的特点是不
能再被分割为更小的音义结合体。而free
morpheme是指能独立存在使用的词素,boundmorpheme则是必须依附于其他单位的词
素,比如前缀后缀属于boundmorpheme,如pre-,-ment,在单词shipment里,ship就
是free
morpheme,ment则是bound。因此四个选项里只有deadline是由两个freemorpheme构
成(dead+line),其他三个都有Bound
morpheme比如non,ness,mis等-。
fthefollowingsentencescontainssubjunctivemood?
sistedthathersongethomebefore5o'clock?
dtodrivetowork,butnowshetakesthecitymetro.
raightahead,anddon'tturntillthesecondtrafficlights.
llcancelhisflightifhecannotgethisvi
sabyFriday.解析:subjunctive
mood是指虚拟语气,四个选项里只有A的insist属于虚拟语气用法,其中that从句里
省略了should。
-followingdeterminerscanbeusedwithbothpluralanduncountablenounsEXCEPT
解析:限定词的用法是近几年专四的热门考点,诸如some,many,both,all,each等
用法究竟如何还是希望大家多翻阅语法书和词典。这道题看似有点难度,也许你从来不
知道哪个限定词可以接名词复数和不可数名词,但好在备选项里每个单词你都可以去接
名词试试就知道了,比如more
money,moretrees;enoughmoney,enoughtrees;manymoney?,manytrees;suchbigtrees,suchbehavior.所以选
C。

ftheitalicizedpartsindicatesCONTRAST?
nedthedoorandquietlywentin.
ialikesmusicandSamisfondofsports.
toveragainandyou'me

解析:首先要明白and不一定表示并列。A,C里的and表示先后;D里的and表示递
进;只有B里的and表示对比。
fthefollowingCANNOTbeusedasanominalsubstitute(名词替代
词)?r
解析:估计不少学生看到名词替代词这个术语,一开始都吓着了,因为压根没听说过,
不过对做这道题目倒无大碍,所谓名词替代词顾名思义就是指能代替名词或名词短语,
避免重复的词,英语里one,
ones,(the)same等都是常见的。比如Therearegoodfilmsaswellasbadone除s.此以外还有
thekind,thesort,比如Slangdisappearsquickly,especiallythejuvenile
sort.还有一些不定代词等比如
all,both,some,anyenough,several,none,many,much,(a)few,(a)little,theother,others,an
other,either,neither等,比如
Canyougetmesomenails??twantanymorefood.I?vehadenough.本题
选D,quarter不是名词替代词。

extweek,
oolpupilswillbehomebynow.
ingtoemailmethenecessaryinformation.解析:这道题目有点意思,既考查时态,又考查
will的用法,A/B/D都是将来时的各种
表达,唯独C的will,看似是将来时标志,其实不然,因为和by
now矛盾,这里will的用法是指youthinksomethingistrue,表说话人自己的看法,比如
ThatwillbeTimcominghomenow;Askanyoneandtheywilltellyouthesamething.本题
选C。

furniturehasarriv
edundamaged.解析:本题考查主谓一致(agreemen)
t。ten
miles看作整体单数,mumps腮腺炎这个单词就是以s结尾的,不可数名词;furniture
在英语里是不可数名词;A里的politics并不是指政治,而是指政治学(political
science),是不可数名词,但这个用法主要是英式英语。此外,politics表示政治可以看
作不可数名词,也可以看作复数,比如Politicshave
alwaysinterestedme.本题选A。
finthefollowingphrasesindicatesasubject-predicaterelationship?iv
ysofOsca
rWilde
解析:传统语法和现代句法学关于什么是predicate本身就不一样,题目的传统语法
predicate指谓语,是对主语动作或状态的陈述或说明,指出“做什么”是“什么”或“怎么样”。
其次,说实话,我手上所有图书查不到相关语法点讲解subject-predicate

relationship,谷歌后也没有什么结果,但我知道是选A,游客到来,只是我暂时找不出
任何可靠来源来解释。
fthefollowingitalicizedpartsservesasanappositive?tthemantod
rawback.
tbacktheurgetotellalie.
asalargefamilytosupport.
sreallynothingtofear.
解析:又是同位语?!但是翻遍手上的各类参考书,都没有关于不定式to的同位语用法。
四个选项的用法在语法书里并没有做进一步区分,都成为不定式的定语用法,修饰名词。
不过还是可以看出不太一样的地方,A中名词和不定式是动宾结构the
mandrawback,C和D都是不定式和名词构成动宾tofearnothing,tosupportfamily;而
唯独B,urge(冲动)的内容就是指totellalie撒谎,故为同位语。
fthefollowingisNOTanimperativesentence?
riveyouhome,shallI?dhave
oucouldstaybehind.解析:花了点时间翻遍手头各类语法和用法图书,除了直接
用动词打头,Do/Don't,You/
其他唤名+动词,let类型外,均没有见到D的wish类型。
_______tomorrow,thematchwouldbeputoff.
ned解析:最经典
的If条件虚拟句,说的是将来,应该选A.
fthefollowingsentencesexpressesafact?
dhersonmustbehomebynow.
ssreadingmustgivepoorresults.
'sgettinglate,andImustleavenow.
beworkinglateattheoffice.
解析:很多人都以为选B,其实应该选C。A,B和D都是推测,当然了C里说的fact
其实是指天色不早了。请注意B,不要以为有了must就是fact,情态动词再华丽还是表
示情态,说话人的态度观点,B要改为Carelessreadinggivespoorresults才是fact。
lowingarealldynamicverbs(动态动词)EXCEPT
解析:看到专四考这个题目,我只能呵呵。动态动词是指能够延续持续动作的,比如hit,
run等,相反的则是stativeverb静态动词,比如know.现在进行时是常见检验手段。你
不能说Iamknowingtheanswer,只能说Iknowtheanswer,因此know是静态动词。同
理,题目的A选项remain也是静态动词,其他都是动态动词。
