1.She was about to open…when she stopped…
△when并列連詞，連接兩個(gè)分句，意為“就在那時(shí)(and then/and at that time)”，后面的分句通常表示一件意想不到的事情。主要用于以下句型：
1)be about to do sth.when…
He was about to tell me the secret when she came back.他剛要告訴我這個(gè)秘密，這時(shí)她回來了。
注意：上句也變?yōu)椋?/p>
He was on the point of telling me the secret when she came back.
2)be doing sth.when…
I was wandering in the street when I heard a call from behind.我正在街上徘徊，突然聽到后面有人喊我。
3)had done sth.when…
They had just sat down when a stranger appeared.他們剛坐好，突然出現(xiàn)了一個(gè)陌生人 。
2.It was pale and of a different shape.
以上為“be+of…”結(jié)構(gòu)。
句型：be +of great(little, some, any, no, much)+抽象名詞，表示主語的性質(zhì)，其中名詞常用的有value, importance, use, help等，這種結(jié)構(gòu)相當(dāng)于be +形容詞。如：
①The meeting is of great importance.
=The meeting is very important.
這個(gè)會(huì)議很重要。
②His idea is of no practical use.
=His idea isn't useful practically.
=His idea is useless practically.
③The book will be of great value to students of history.
=The book will be very valuable to students of history.
這本書對學(xué)歷史的學(xué)生們將會(huì)很有用。
①Coins may be of different sizes. weigh, shapes and of different metals.
=Coins may be different in size, weight and shape, and they may be made of different metals.
硬幣可能大小、輕重、形狀不同，鑄造的金屬可能不一樣。
②They're of the same age.他們倆同歲。

典型例題
At 9:00 Dick Spivak's bank telephoned and said his payment was late.‘The check is in the post.’Dick replied quickly. At 11:45 Dick left for a 12:00 meeting across town. Arriving late, he explained that traffic(交通) had been bad. That EVENING Dick's girlfriend wore a new dress. He hated it.‘It looks just great on you,’h e said.
Three lies in one day! Yet Dick Spivak is just an ordinary man. Each time, he told himself that sometimes the truth causes too man problems .Most of us tell much the same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble. How often do we tell white lies? It depends in part on our age, education, and even where we live. According to one U.S. study, women are more truthful than men, and honesty increases a s we get older.
While most people use little white lies to make life easier, the majority of Americans care about honesty in both public and personal life. They say that people today are less honest than they were ten years ago. Although it is believed that things are getting worse, lying seems to be an age old human problem. The French philosopher(哲學(xué)家) Vauvenarges,writing in the eighteenth century, touched on the truth when he wrote,‘All men are born truthful and die liars(說謊者).’
1.When the writer says ‘Dick Spivak is just an ordinary man’,he means ______________.
A. it is common that people tell white lies
B. Dick could do nothing about bad traffic
C. it is common that people delay their payment
D. Dick found it hard to deal with everyday problems
2.According to the text, most Americans ______________.
A. hate white lies B. believe white lies
C. value honesty D. consider others dishonest
3.Vauvenatges'remark suggests that ______________.
A. lying is an age old human problem
B. dishonesty increases as people get older
C. people were dishonest in the 18th century
D. it is social conditions that make people tell lies
解析 1.這是一道推理判斷題。文章第二段Most of us tell much the same white lies, harmless untruths that help to save trouble一句可以幫助考生理解 ：我們大多數(shù)人都說這種無惡意的謊言。而作者說‘Dick Spivak is just an ordinaryman (Dick Spivak只是一個(gè)普通人)’，暗含的意思是，“人們說無意謊言是很常見的。”故A為 最佳答案。
2.這是一道細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文中While most people use little white lies to make life easier,the majority of Americans care about honesty in both public and personal life 一句可以得知，C為最佳答案。大多數(shù)美國人更看重誠實(shí)。
3.這是一道推理判斷題。法國哲學(xué)家Vauvenarges說，“人生來誠實(shí)，死時(shí)是個(gè)說謊者。” 說謊似乎是一個(gè)老化的人類問題。是社會(huì)環(huán)境教會(huì)人們說謊，人們不得不說謊，這正是哲學(xué) 家要表達(dá)的含義。D為最佳答案。

【關(guān)于“Mainly Revision”的常見問題】
常見問題1: Mainly Revision
問題：
There stood the tower _______________ grew many pine trees.
A. around which B. where C. in which D. below that
解答:
答案：選A.本句的關(guān)系詞在從句中做地點(diǎn)狀語(賓語從句為倒裝句)，但從題干內(nèi)容看，塔身內(nèi)部是不可能長松樹的，所以B、C不合題義；而關(guān)系代詞that不能用于介詞后，D也是錯(cuò)的。
除引導(dǎo)定語從句外，where還可以引導(dǎo)名詞從句和地點(diǎn)狀語從句。如：
Go and get your coat. It's where you left it.(表語從句MET’92)
When you read the book, you'd better make a mark where you have any questions.(地 點(diǎn)狀語從句MET’86)

常見問題2: Mainly Revision
問題：
The problem _______________ at present at the meeting is to be settle d.
A. discussing B. discussed
C. being discussed D. to be discussed
解答:
解題指導(dǎo)：例句中“_______________ at present at the meeting”作the problem的后置定語，從at present可以判斷discuss的動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行，即應(yīng)用被動(dòng)式的進(jìn)行式being discussed.故答案為C。對照以下句子：
The problem discussed last time at the meeting hasn't been settle d.
The problem to be discussed at tomorrow's meeting is very important.
常見問題3: Mainly Revision
問題：
The first textbooks _______________ for teaching English as a foreign language came out in the 16th century.(全國高考題)
A. having written B.to be written
C. being written D. written
解答:
解題指導(dǎo)：A項(xiàng)不能作后置定語。B項(xiàng)表示未來的動(dòng)作。C項(xiàng)表示正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作。textbooks 與write之間有被動(dòng)關(guān)系，題干中的the first textbooks和came out in the 16th century 暗示，選written既表示被動(dòng)又表示已完成的動(dòng)作。故答案為D。
常見問題4: Mainly Revision
問題：

A．onthehand B．for one thing
C．for other thing D．onthe other hand

問題：
The beautiful music carried her___________.
A．a(chǎn)way B．off C．on D．out
解答:
導(dǎo)析：題干意思是“優(yōu)美的音樂讓她陶醉了。“carry...away／off”意為“把……搬走”。carry away有“令……陶醉”的意思， carry off有“奪去生命”的意思，carry on意為“進(jìn)行”，carry out意為“實(shí)施”。答案：A

A．in orderforget B．a(chǎn)s toforget
C．that she could forget D．so as to forget
解答:
導(dǎo)析：從題干意可知“forget her pen”應(yīng)該是so careless的結(jié)果，由于careless前面有so，則只可能有兩種固定搭配：so...that...，so...as to，而thatshewouldforget表目的。答案：B

A．perhaps B．probable C．maybe D．possible
解答:
導(dǎo)析：此題的目的是辨析A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)的用法。首先排除答案C，雖然maybe意思與may相同，但不同的是maybe用在句首，是副詞。答案B probable表示可能性大，而答案A perhaps和答案D possible都比probable表示的可能性小，而且perhaps常放在句首，根據(jù)句中may這一情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的用法，應(yīng)選possible。答案：D
常見問題9: Mainly Revision

問題：
--What a beautiful bridge,_________?
--No,__________.
A．isn't it;it isn't B．is it;it is
C．isn't it;it is D．is it;it isn't
解答:
導(dǎo)析：問話者是用反意疑問句提問，因陳述部分是一感嘆句，其后省略了it is，所以簡短問句部分用isn't it;答話者用否定疑問句的形式，來提出自己的肯定看法，所以第二空應(yīng)填it isn't。答案：A
常見問題11: Mainly Revision
問題：

Less than two hundred years ago, in 1773,the well-known English writer and talker ,Dr. Samuel, Jonson, traveled on a famous journey to Scotland. The trip from London to Edinburgh, which he made by the fastest form of transport known at that time, took him twelve days. The jouney can now be completed in an hour by regular air se r vice. In the eighteenth century, it took three months or more to cross the Atlantic from Britain to the American colonies, now the United States. Today the trip takes only a few hours.
