(2) 名词(代词) + 形容词
(3) 名词(代词) + 副词
(4) 名词(代词) + 不定式

(3) 独立主格结构主要用于书面语;
(4) 独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句中的语法主语不同, 不指同一个人或同一事物;

= When the test was finished, we began our holiday.

2. 掌握独立主格的解题方法;
独立主格结构
1. 构成:
独立主格结构由名词或代词加上其他成分(分词, 不定式, 名词, 代词, 形容词, 副词或介词短语)构成, 在语法上是一个独立的短语, 不是句子, 在意思上依附于整个句子。构成如下:
(1) 名词(代词) + 现在分词, 过去分词
(2) 名词(代词) + 形容词
(3) 名词(代词) + 副词
(4) 名词(代词) + 不定式
(5) 名词(代词) + 介词短语
2. 独立主格结构的特点:
(1) 独立主格结构的作用相当于状语从句, 可表示时间, 原因, 条件, 行为方式或伴随情况;
(2) 独立主格结构可置于句首, 也可以放在句尾;
(3) 独立主格结构主要用于书面语;
(4) 独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句中的语法主语不同, 不指同一个人或同一事物;
(5) 独立主格结构的逻辑主语与句子的主语不同, 它独立存在;
(6) 名词或代词与后面的分词, 形容词, 副词, 不定式, 介词等是主谓关系;
(7) 独立主格结构一般有逗号与主句分开
(8) 过去分词表示被动,逻辑主语承受动作;分词的完成式表示的动作在谓语动词所表示的动作之前发生。
e.g. 1) The test finished, we began our holiday.
= When the test was finished, we began our holiday.
2) The president assassinated, the whole country was in deep sorrow.
3) Weather permitting, we are going to visit you tomorrow.
4) He came into the room, his ears red with cold.
5) He came out of the library, a large book under his arm.

答案: A
2. The old couple often take a walk after supper in the park with their pet dog ____________ them.
A. to follow B. following C. followed D. follows
解析: 句意“这对老夫妇经常晚饭后在公园散步,他们的宠物狗跟着他们”。考查非谓语动词作宾补。首先排除D。在with复合结构中,非谓语动词的逻辑主语their pet dog与follow是主动关系,排除C。A项不定式表示将要发生的事情,不符合题意。
答案: B
3. All his time________ the local people out of poverty, he has no time for his sick mother.
A. devoting to helping B. devoted to helping
C. devoting to help D. devoted to help
解析: devote 和time是被动关系,所以要用过去分词作逻辑谓语构成独立主格结构。devote…to doing sth.把、、、、、、投入到做某事上。句意“他把所有的时间都投入到了帮助当地人摆脱贫困上面了,没有时间顾及他生病的母亲。
答案: B
4. The party will be held in the garden, weather ____________ (permit).
解析: 句意“如果天气允许,派对将会在花园里举行”。考查非谓语动词作状语。逗号前为一个完整的句子,逗号之后应该为,分析句子结构可知此处为独立主格结构。名词weather 与permit之间为主动关系,故用现在分词形式。
答案: permitting
5. Bats are surprisingly long-lived creatures, some __________(have) a life span of around 20 years.
解析:句意“蝙蝠是一种寿命长得惊人的生物,一些蝙蝠的寿命可长达约20年”。题干中并没有从属连词或并列连词,设空处应为非谓语动词, some having a life span of around 20 years 位独立主格结构作状语。
答案: having
6. We ________(arrive)there, the sun was rising in the east.
解析:考查独立主格结构。根据句子结构可知逗号前应是状语,不能是句子。故用独立主格结构。
答案: arriving
7. All things _________(consider), her suggestion is of greater value than yours.
解析:考查独立主格结构。此处all things 是逻辑主语,considered是过去分词,意为“被考虑”。
答案: considered
8. He got up late and hurried to his office, _________(leave) the breakfast untouched.
解析:句意“他起晚了,然后匆忙赶到办公室,早饭根本没动”。考查非谓语动词作状语。根据句子结构可知此处用现在分词leaving作结果状语。

Kelly and I had been friends ever since she was three and I was four. We were “home” friends, the kind who rode bikes together after school, went 6 to a KFC a few blocks away, even though we weren’t allowed to leave the block.
At the funeral home, Kelly came right to me. In her hands were two packages of M&M’s. Kelly knew that was one of my 7 . We had often taken long trips to the store for 8 . We sat in the back, eating M&M’s and talking quietly. A 9 experience had suddenly become easier to bear, with a childhood offering of chocolates and the 10 of a devoted friend.
Trying to come up with something to offer a heartbroken person is 11 . Kelly had understood, even at twelve, that there wasn’t much she could do to reduce my pain _12 be there with me and bring something that just might make me 13 .
Now, whenever Kelly and I find ourselves at a funeral home for a family member of ours, the other has always shown up 14 M&M’s, a small offering of 15 to take the edge off the hovering sorrow. We’ve 16 that when we’re old, the one who dies first will have a crazy old lady throwing M&M’s into her grave. M&M’s will 17 be significant to me. They will 18 me that even when something as painful and powerful as 19 comes to claim what’s most important to me, there will always be Kelly… and her chocolate.
M&M’s, melt (溶解) in your 20 , not in your hand.

第二节
Recently, to carry forward the value of honesty, a variety of activities have been held in our school. Our class also got involved in it. We held an honesty-themed class meeting.
All the students discussed what honesty meant to us and brought forward various ideas about how to encourage honest behaviors. Finally we agreed on trying no-invigilation exams. Then led by our monitor, we took an oath that we would take any test honestly without invigilators. In the following exams, we did as that we had promised. The result was amazing: no one cheated and we felt a stronger self-respect and responsibility.
A good deed speaks for itself and we got an award as an Honest Class. Honesty in the best policy. How true it is!

I’ve always felt a bit sad for weekend fathers, who are divorced and must maintain a bond with their children through visits on the weekend. Not having the opportunity for a lot of quality time, they go in for quantity — giving lots of gifts and taking the children on non-stop outings.
But now I can understand. I’m a weekend mom. My child, Henry, is a dog.
Henry just returned to his father, Jack, after a happy stay with me. For ten days, I fed him the best food, canceled plans to stay home with him and let him sleep on the bed every night.
Jack and I broke up a year ago. But neither of us wanted to part with Henry, so we share him. Not surprisingly, Henry is a willing participant in our contest for his love.
Jack doesn’t let Henry sleep on his bed, so that’s where I can always gain big points. I feed Henry higher-quality food. I am always replacing his expensive “thingy”, a cotton knot he likes chewing on. It’s his favorite toy, and the only one he has is at my house. Score another one for me.
Jack now has a girlfriend, Lucy. At first she was afraid of dogs, which secretly delighted me. But that Henry, just trying to be polite (the way I taught him to be), won her over.
If truth be told, as time passes, there has been a slight change in Henry’s behavior towards me. The worst was one day when Jack dropped him off for a two-week stay. Henry and I were in the backyard playing as Jack was driving off. When he heard Jack’s truck, he ran after it for two blocks until Jack had to stop and bring him back.
That hurt, especially since I had friends over at the time. In a rare conciliatory (安抚的) mood, Jack said to me, “You know, I’m his best friend, but you’ll always be his mom.”
Whatever it takes, I plan to make sure it stays that way.

This is a story told or children of young ages. The heroine(女主人公), Cinderella, treated cruelly by her stepmother and her two ugly stepsisters, is helpless until the right magic comes along. She meets her prince and they live together happily.
Just a sweet, pretty tale? Not in the view of Ellen Macintosh, who has written much about fairy tales. Ellen's main concern is with what the story implies. “Instead of standing up to her cruel stepmother and stepsisters, Cinderella just waits for a fairy godmother to appear and solve her problem. But wouldn't you want a daughter of yours to show more spirit?"
The story is long-lasting, whatever its shortcomings, and it doesn't take much to see its influence on a number of recent Hollywood productions. In these versions for the silver screen, the Cinderella character no longer has to clean the house and has no sisters to make her life terrible, though she keeps the way of not showing much courage. The character of the rich and handsome stranger, however, is kept, and in some cases really is a prince. The role of the fairy godmother is often played by luck; we live in a civilized age when even very young children might reject the idea of fairies. In the majority of film versions, the heroine has a professional and is even permitted to continue work after marry her prince--this is the twenty-first century, after all.
Doesn't the success of these films indicate that the story has relevance to children even today? “Yes." admits Ellen, who sees its message as being rooted in a fundamental childhood desire for love and attention. "Most children experience a sense of inner loneliness as they are growing up and empathize with (与…共鸣)the character who faces some sort of challenge . This can be seen in the original story of Cinderella, when the fairy godmother tells the heroine that she must learn to be gracious and confident if she is to go to the ball. She has to grow spiritually, and by maturing, she becomes attractive to the prince, thus ensuring that the ending of the story will be happy." "In the later versions, this element(因素)is missing,"says Ellen. “and the theme of story is simply that a girl's role in life is to be more beautiful than other girls so that she can carry off the prize : the handsome prince. Is this really what we want girls to grow up believing?"
23. Why does Ellen disapprove of the Cinderella story?
A. The plot is too simple.
B. The description is now vivid.
C. The heroine is not brave enough.
D. The story is unfit for the children today.
24. In the film versions of the Cinderella story, ___.
A. Luck plays an important role in the heroine's happy life
B. Cinderella's family background remains unchanged
C. the heroine becomes a successful career woman
D. the character of the prince is removed
25. According to Ellen, the film versions of the story_____.
A. Succeed because of the happy ending
B. ignore the children’s psychological need
C. deliver a mistake message that beauty is everything
D. reflect modern people's attitude toward challenges in life
What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To analyze the characters of the Cinderella story.
B. To introduce different versions of the Cinderella story.
C. To explain the changes of the Cinderella story over time.
D. To present a different understanding of the Cinderella story.

School Counseling(咨询)
In our grandparents’ time, it was unthinkable. In our parents’ time, it was unusual and nobody spoke openly about counseling. These days, more and more schools are asking for this service and it is considered a necessity for most. Why is it? What has changed in the last fifty years to have made counseling at schools so important?
“One reason is that we expect schools to do more to protect their pupils than we did in the past,” says school counselor, Mike Hudson. “Also, our society doesn’t work as well as it should. Many parents are either under pressure of work or face the economic problems of unemployment, while children are under more and more pressure to do well at school. Many pupils feel they are pushed to their limits by their parents and teachers.”
Most school children face some kind of relationship problem at some stage with family members, teachers or other pupils, so it helps to have somebody to talk to. From the pupil’s point of view, it is easier to talk to a counselor in confidence rather than a family member or teacher. This solution is less embarrassing to pupils, who are not forced to face the person that they had problems with in the first place. They can calmly talk things through without arguments.
School counselors advise not only students but also their teachers and parents, and offer other services as well, such as deciding learning disabilities or assisting parents and guardians to make the correct decisions about their children’s education.
Counselor’s can help students with problems ranging from the most serious, like a death in the family, to what an adult would consider really trivial, like an argument with a friend.
In a society that is becoming more and more stressful, this service is providing children with a supportive way to express their fear and worries.
27. Why is school counseling becoming important?
A. Pupils are not well protected in school.
B. Parents can’t help their children in learning.
C. Parents and pupils are under too much pressure.
D. The relationship between parents and schools is worse.
28. According to the passage, school counselors________.
A. bear high pressure themselves
B. are the guarantee of school success
C. have more responsibilities than teachers
D. are more likely to be accepted when pupils have problems
29. The underlined word “trivial” in Para.5 probably means_______.
A. unimportant B. puzzling C. difficult D. urgent
30. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The development of school counseling.
B. The reasons for school counseling’s popularity.
C. The advantages and disadvantages of school counseling.
D. The comparison of the past and present school counseling.

Personal Shoppers
I was shopping with Thomas, who has been working as a personal shopper for the past five years. “Personal shoppers are in great demand these days,” he told me as we were walking past designer clothes shops.__31__He said that there were many people who wanted to be fashionable, but they didn’t know where to start. They needed a professional to advise them.
But why? I always call my best friend to help me find the perfect dress, not a stranger!
“__32__The first thing I do is help my customer improve their image. I teach them to choose colors and clothes that suit them, and how to use make-up,” Thomas told me. “Then I organize the customer’s wardrobe.__33__The third service has to do with actual shopping: the personal shopper and the customer visit shops and buy clothes according to the customer’s personality, lifestyle and needs.”
Of course, each of the above services costs between 150 and 225 euros! __34__“Most of my customers are rich business people who call me for important meetings or business parties,” explained Thomas. “However, I also work for people in all kinds of jobs and for retired men and women who want a change of look.”
We spent the rest of the day shopping. Every time we came out of a shop, we had one more bag. In the end, I went home with a beautiful dress, two pairs of trousers, some lovely tops and a couple of coats. I’d never had a shopping day like this before! I admit that I’d spent more than I usually do, but I wouldn’t have found such beautiful clothes without Thomas.__35__
A. I can help in three different ways.
B. I asked him why this had happened.
C. It depends on the customer’s preferences.
D. I might even throw away some old clothes.
E. I just wish personal shoppers were a bit cheaper!
F. People need help with choosing the right clothes.
G. I just wonder how many people have this kind of money to spend.

I’ve always felt a bit sad for weekend fathers, who are divorced and must maintain a bond with their children through visits on the weekend. Not having the opportunity for a lot of quality time, they go in for quantity — giving lots of gifts and taking the children on non-stop outings.
But now I can understand. I’m a weekend mom. My child, Henry, is a dog.
Henry just returned to his father, Jack, after a happy stay with me. For ten days, I fed him the best food, canceled plans to stay home with him and let him sleep on the bed every night.
Jack and I broke up a year ago. But neither of us wanted to part with Henry, so we share him. Not surprisingly, Henry is a willing participant in our contest for his love.
Jack doesn’t let Henry sleep on his bed, so that’s where I can always gain big points. I feed Henry higher-quality food. I am always replacing his expensive “thingy”, a cotton knot he likes chewing on. It’s his favorite toy, and the only one he has is at my house. Score another one for me.
Jack now has a girlfriend, Lucy. At first she was afraid of dogs, which secretly delighted me. But that Henry, just trying to be polite (the way I taught him to be), won her over.
If truth be told, as time passes, there has been a slight change in Henry’s behavior towards me. The worst was one day when Jack dropped him off for a two-week stay. Henry and I were in the backyard playing as Jack was driving off. When he heard Jack’s truck, he ran after it for two blocks until Jack had to stop and bring him back.
That hurt, especially since I had friends over at the time. In a rare conciliatory (安抚的) mood, Jack said to me, “You know, I’m his best friend, but you’ll always be his mom.”
Whatever it takes, I plan to make sure it stays that way.
At the writer’s home, Henry .
does a lot of running B. enjoys high-quality food

This is a story told or children of young ages. The heroine(女主人公), Cinderella, treated cruelly by her stepmother and her two ugly stepsisters, is helpless until the right magic comes along. She meets her prince and they live together happily.
Just a sweet, pretty tale? Not in the view of Ellen Macintosh, who has written much about fairy tales. Ellen's main concern is with what the story implies. “Instead of standing up to her cruel stepmother and stepsisters, Cinderella just waits for a fairy godmother to appear and solve her problem. But wouldn't you want a daughter of yours to show more spirit?"
The story is long-lasting, whatever its shortcomings, and it doesn't take much to see its influence on a number of recent Hollywood productions. In these versions for the silver screen, the Cinderella character no longer has to clean the house and has no sisters to make her life terrible, though she keeps the way of not showing much courage. The character of the rich and handsome stranger, however, is kept, and in some cases really is a prince. The role of the fairy godmother is often played by luck; we live in a civilized age when even very young children might reject the idea of fairies. In the majority of film versions, the heroine has a professional and is even permitted to continue work after marry her prince--this is the twenty-first century, after all.
Doesn't the success of these films indicate that the story has relevance to children even today? “Yes." admits Ellen, who sees its message as being rooted in a fundamental childhood desire for love and attention. "Most children experience a sense of inner loneliness as they are growing up and empathize with (与…共鸣)the character who faces some sort of challenge . This can be seen in the original story of Cinderella, when the fairy godmother tells the heroine that she must learn to be gracious and confident if she is to go to the ball. She has to grow spiritually, and by maturing, she becomes attractive to the prince, thus ensuring that the ending of the story will be happy." "In the later versions, this element(因素)is missing,"says Ellen. “and the theme of story is simply that a girl's role in life is to be more beautiful than other girls so that she can carry off the prize : the handsome prince. Is this really what we want girls to grow up believing?"
23. Why does Ellen disapprove of the Cinderella story?
A. The plot is too simple.
B. The description is now vivid.
C. The heroine is not brave enough.
D. The story is unfit for the children today.
24. In the film versions of the Cinderella story, ___.
A. Luck plays an important role in the heroine's happy life
B. Cinderella's family background remains unchanged
C. the heroine becomes a successful career woman
D. the character of the prince is removed
25. According to Ellen, the film versions of the story_____.
A. Succeed because of the happy ending
B. ignore the children’s psychological need
C. deliver a mistake message that beauty is everything
D. reflect modern people's attitude toward challenges in life
What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To analyze the characters of the Cinderella story.
B. To introduce different versions of the Cinderella story.
C. To explain the changes of the Cinderella story over time.
D. To present a different understanding of the Cinderella story.

School Counseling(咨询)
In our grandparents’ time, it was unthinkable. In our parents’ time, it was unusual and nobody spoke openly about counseling. These days, more and more schools are asking for this service and it is considered a necessity for most. Why is it? What has changed in the last fifty years to have made counseling at schools so important?
“One reason is that we expect schools to do more to protect their pupils than we did in the past,” says school counselor, Mike Hudson. “Also, our society doesn’t work as well as it should. Many parents are either under pressure of work or face the economic problems of unemployment, while children are under more and more pressure to do well at school. Many pupils feel they are pushed to their limits by their parents and teachers.”
Most school children face some kind of relationship problem at some stage with family members, teachers or other pupils, so it helps to have somebody to talk to. From the pupil’s point of view, it is easier to talk to a counselor in confidence rather than a family member or teacher. This solution is less embarrassing to pupils, who are not forced to face the person that they had problems with in the first place. They can calmly talk things through without arguments.
School counselors advise not only students but also their teachers and parents, and offer other services as well, such as deciding learning disabilities or assisting parents and guardians to make the correct decisions about their children’s education.
Counselor’s can help students with problems ranging from the most serious, like a death in the family, to what an adult would consider really trivial, like an argument with a friend.
In a society that is becoming more and more stressful, this service is providing children with a supportive way to express their fear and worries.
27. Why is school counseling becoming important?
A. Pupils are not well protected in school.
B. Parents can’t help their children in learning.
C. Parents and pupils are under too much pressure.
D. The relationship between parents and schools is worse.
28. According to the passage, school counselors________.
A. bear high pressure themselves
B. are the guarantee of school success
C. have more responsibilities than teachers
D. are more likely to be accepted when pupils have problems
29. The underlined word “trivial” in Para.5 probably means_______.
A. unimportant B. puzzling C. difficult D. urgent
30. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The development of school counseling.
B. The reasons for school counseling’s popularity.
C. The advantages and disadvantages of school counseling.
D. The comparison of the past and present school counseling.

Personal Shoppers
I was shopping with Thomas, who has been working as a personal shopper for the past five years. “Personal shoppers are in great demand these days,” he told me as we were walking past designer clothes shops.__31__He said that there were many people who wanted to be fashionable, but they didn’t know where to start. They needed a professional to advise them.
But why? I always call my best friend to help me find the perfect dress, not a stranger!
“__32__The first thing I do is help my customer improve their image. I teach them to choose colors and clothes that suit them, and how to use make-up,” Thomas told me. “Then I organize the customer’s wardrobe.__33__The third service has to do with actual shopping: the personal shopper and the customer visit shops and buy clothes according to the customer’s personality, lifestyle and needs.”
Of course, each of the above services costs between 150 and 225 euros! __34__“Most of my customers are rich business people who call me for important meetings or business parties,” explained Thomas. “However, I also work for people in all kinds of jobs and for retired men and women who want a change of look.”
We spent the rest of the day shopping. Every time we came out of a shop, we had one more bag. In the end, I went home with a beautiful dress, two pairs of trousers, some lovely tops and a couple of coats. I’d never had a shopping day like this before! I admit that I’d spent more than I usually do, but I wouldn’t have found such beautiful clothes without Thomas.__35__
A. I can help in three different ways.
B. I asked him why this had happened.
C. It depends on the customer’s preferences.
D. I might even throw away some old clothes.
E. I just wish personal shoppers were a bit cheaper!
F. People need help with choosing the right clothes.
G. I just wonder how many people have this kind of money to spend.
