  北京新航道为托福考生提供托福考试指导和建议。在托福考试中,若说词汇是基础,那么语法就是脉络,支撑着所有的题型。对同学来说,语法是令人头疼的,从开始接触,到学已数载,可能还是没弄明白。其实,语法并不是那么难懂,只要用心去揣摩,多做练习,就会潜移默化的懂了。在这里,我们针对托福考试中的语法进行分类解析,帮助考生复习,重拾语法信心。

 

  1. 含并列连词and but or的平行结构

 

  解题要点 当上述并列连词毗连两项或多项对等成分时,这些成分必需同词性、同形式。出格注重呈现三项以上(含三项)的并列成分,多是考试焦点。

  (1) Quartz may be transparency, translucent, or opaque, and it may be colorless or colored (91.5)

 

  [谜底] A 并列连词or毗连三项,其中两项为形容词translucent与opaque,故(A)应用形容词transparent与之并列。

 

  (2) At the age of 94. Composer, conductor. Arranger. And acting Eva Jessye led her choral group in the first production of the opera porgy and Bess, written in 1935. (92.1)

  [谜底] C 并列连词or毗连四项名词结构,其中cell 和organ皆为单数形式,故(C)亦应改为单数tissue。

  [谜底] D 并列连词or毗连三项成分。前两项均为名词,故(D)不应呈现句子结构,而应改为名词tricks与前面的mistakes和misconceptions平行。

 

  (6) The tongue is capable of many motions and configurations and plays vital rode in chewing, swallowed and speaking.

 

  [谜底] D 并列连词and毗连三个单词。其中两项均为动名词,故(D)亦应改为动名词swallowing。

  (C) those of the domestic marketer

  [谜底] C 此句斗劲的是国际市场研究者与国内市场研究者的勾当(the activities) 为避免同词一再,用(C)those来庖代前面的名词the activities ,因而对比双方斗劲典型围是平行相等的。

  (4) It is common lcnowledge that a flash of lightning is seen before a clap of thunder heard . (93.5)

 

  [谜底] D 连词 be fore用以引出先后发生的两个动作。从句意上看。这两个动作是对比关系,故应用平行结构。(D)改为a clap of thunder is heard ,与a flash of lightning is seen 相平衡。

 

  上面就是关于平行结构的解析。考生们切记要搞懂,理顺了脉络,做起题来才会得心应手。掌握好语法是关键。另外,生们要记住一点,万变不离其宗,不要换个样子就不会了,活学活用贯穿始终。祝考生考出理想成绩。
