专题十二 并列句和复合句
一对一“梳理”知识点
高效复习法
并列连词and, but, or, so是中考的高频考点,这些词所表示的逻辑关系要理解吃透.并列连词连接的是两个或两个以上的并列成分,如两个词、两个短语或两个分句.做题时要仔细审题,弄清题意,抓住关键词来推敲并理顺前后的逻辑关系.
复合句是由一个主句和一个或一个以上的从句构成,主句为句子的主体,从句只用作句子的一个次要成分,从句通常由关联词引导,并由关联词将从句和主句联系在一起.从句按其在复合句中的作用分为宾语从句、状语从句和定语从句.
宾语从句是中考单项选择的常考点,侧重于引导词、时态、句意和语序的混合考查,考生在做宾语从句类试题时,首先应从语序着手,宾语从句的语序为陈述语序,即:主语+谓语+宾语+其他,若选项不是陈述语序,则可以直接排除.其次,从时态方面考虑,一般情况下,宾语从句的时态要和主句的时态保持一致,但是,如果有明显的时间状语,则要根据时间状语来判断时态.最后,根据语境来判断疑问词,询问内容用what;询问时间用when/what time;询问地点用where;询问原因用why;询问方式用how等.
定语从句主要考查的是关系词.考生在解答定语从句类试题时,可按以下步骤解题:
(1)首先根据语境分析句子结构,找出先行词.
(2)然后判断先行词是指人还是指物,缩小关系词的选择范围.
(3)最后把先行词还原到定语从句中,明确先行词在定语从句中所作的成分,如果从句缺少主干成分,用关系代词;如果从句不缺主干成分,用关系副词.
(4)特殊情况.牢记只能用that的几种特殊情况,结合题目做出判断.
对状语从句的考查主要集中在从属连词的词义辨析上.解答此类题时一定坚持“句意为先”的原则.准确地翻译句意,就能准确判断出主、从句的关系和从句的类型,选择连词也就容易多了.主句和从句的时态搭配对状语从句引导词的判定也有帮助.如:含条件状语从句的主从复合句,主、从句的时态遵循三大原则“主将从现”“主情从现”和“主祈从现”.
知识突破
知识点1并列句
一、定义:由并列连词连接的两个或两个以上的简单句组成的句子叫做并列句.
二、并列句有四种关系:并列关系,选择关系,转折关系和因果关系
分类 连词及含义 示例
并列关系 and和;both...and...······和······都;as well as 也;not only...but also...不但······而且······;neither...nor...既不······也不······ Work hard, and you'll make great progress. 努力工作,你就会取得很大进步.
选择关系 either...or...要么······要么······;or否则 Hurry up, or we'll be late.快点,否则我们会迟到的.
转折关系 but但是;yet然而;while而 I like apples while my little sister likes bananas. 我喜欢苹果,而我妹妹喜欢香蕉.
因果关系 so因此,所以;for因为 The weather is too hot, so I stay at home. 天气太热了,所以我待在家里.
知识点2宾语从句
一、定义:在句子中担任宾语的从句,就是宾语从句.
二、用法
1.宾语从句三大考点
要素 用法 示例
连接词 that本身无词义,在从句中不作成分,只起连接作用,在口语中that可省略 He said (that) he would go to the seaside. 他说他要去海边.
if或whether意为“是否”,不作句子成分,不可省略,句尾有or not时用whether He hasn't decided if he'll go on a trip to Zhejiang.他还没决定是否去浙江旅行.
连接代词(what/who/whose/whom/which等)在从句中作一定成分,如主语、宾语、定语等 Do you know who he is 你知道他是谁吗
连接副词(where/when/why/how等)在从句中作状语 She asked me where I bought the book. 她问我在哪里买的这本书.
时态 需要性原则:主句为一般现在时、一般将来时,现在完成时,则宾语从句根据实际情况使用所需要的时态 I don't know when he will come back. 我不知道他将何时回来.
呼应性原则:主句为一般过去时,则宾语从句一般与主句的时态保持一致,根据需要选择相应的过去时态 The children didn't know who he was. 孩子们不知道他是谁.
特殊性原则:如果宾语从句表示的是客观真理和普遍事实,则不管主句是什么时态,从句都用一般现在时 The teacher said that the earth goes round the sun.老师说地球围绕着太
语序 从句用陈述语序,即主语+谓语+其他 Do you know where I can get some postearda 你知道我能从哪里得到一些明信片吗
2.疑问词+动词不定式
(1)动词不定式与疑问词连用可用作主语、宾语或表语.例如:
When to go to Beijing hasn't been decided yet.什么时候去北京还没定下来.(作主语)
I asked him when to leave Beijing.我问他什么时候离开北京.(作宾语)
My question is how to get there.我的问题是如何到达那里.(作表语)
(2)“疑问词+动词不定式”作宾语时可以转化为宾语从句.例如:
Can you tell me where to buy a map of China = Can you tell me where I can buy a map of China
你能告诉我在哪里能买到中国地图吗
3.否定前移
当主句的主语为第一人称,谓语动词是think, believe, suppose等时,要将宾语从句的否定词转移到前面的主句中,即主句的谓语动词用否定形式,而宾语从句的谓语动词用肯定形式.例如:
I don't think he will come with you.我认为他不会和你一起来.
I don't believe she will take part in the English evening.我认为她不会参加英语晚会.
知识点3状语从句
一、定义:在句中作状语成分的从句就是状语从句,它在句中修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子.

(2)条件状语从句.
引导词 含义及用法 示例
if “如果”,主句如果为一般将来时,if引导的从句通常用一般现在时表将来 If it doesn't rain tomorrow, we'll go to the park. 如果明天不下雨,我们就去公园.
unless “如果不,除非”,unless可转化为if...not...结构.主从句时态与if用法一致 Unless it rains, the game will be played. 除非下雨,否则比赛照常进行.

知识点4定语从句
