21. I don’t think we’ve met before. You’re taking me for _______ (2005安徽卷)
A. some other B. someone else C. other person D. one other
【答案】B。
【考点】考查复合不定代词的用法。
【解析】someone else的意思是“别的什么人”“另外的某个人”。else修饰复合不定代词时总是置于其后。句意为:我想我们以前没见过面,你是把我当作另外的某个人了。又如:I did the hard work and someone else got all the glory. 苦差事都是我干的,荣誉却全被别人得去了。
附:someone用法详解
1. 主要用于肯定句中,在否定句或疑问中通常用 anyone 代之:Someone has left his wallet on the desk. 有人把钱包丢在桌上了。/ There’s someone in the room. 屋里有个人。(比较:There’s not anyone in the room. 屋里没有人。)
有时为了表示一种较肯定的意味或提出请求等,也可能用于非肯定句中:Are you expecting someone this afternoon? 今天下午你在等人吗?/ Will you ask someone to carry this bag for me, please? 请你帮我叫个人提这个袋子好吗?
2. 一般不与介词 of 连用表示部分关系;若要表示这个意思可用some one(分开写)的形式:Will some one of you help her? 你们当中有人愿意帮她吗?
3. 用作主语时,谓语要用单数;但是使用相应代词时注意:在正式英语中通常用单数,但在口语或非正式英语中通常用复数,以避免因性别之分带来的不必要的麻烦:
有人忘记拿帽子了(http://ask.yygrammar.com/)。

4. 可用作祈使句的主语:Someone turn on the light, will he [will they]? 哪个去把灯打开,好吗?
22. You must keep on working in the evening _______ you are sure you can finish the task in time. (2005安徽卷)
A. as B. if C. when D. unless
【答案】D。
【考点】考查状语从句的用法。
【解析】四个选项中只有unless填入空格句意最通顺。unless在意义上相当于if…not。句意是:如果你不能保证按时完成任务,你就必须在晚上继续工作。又如:She will not work hard unless you push her. 除非有人督促她,不然她不会努力。
附:unless用法详解
1. 引导条件状语从句,通常放在主句之后,但若是为了加强从句语气,也可放到主句之前:Do not come unless I call you. 我不叫你,你就不要来。/ Unless you start at once, you’ll be late. 如果不马上走,你就要迟到了。
若主句是一般将来时,unless引导的从句要用一般现在时表示将来意义(见上例)。
2. 若主、从句的主语相同,且从句谓语包含有动词be, 有时可用省略形式(即省略主语和动词be):I won’t go unless (I’m) invited. 除非请我,不然我就不去。/ Unless (he is) in uniform, he doesn’t look like a policeman. 除非穿上制服,他看起来不像警察。
3. 由于本身已含有否定意义,因此不要受 if…not 的影响而在unless后误加not:
如果不下雨,我们就去。
正:We shall go if it doesn’t rain.
正:We shall go unless it rains.
误:We shall go unless it doesn’t rain.
4. unless 与 if…not 的用法对比:
(1) 两者含义相同,有时也可互换,但互换的场合一般只限于:当我们要去结束一个已经存在的想法或状态时(而不是去开始一种新的想法或状态)。试体会:I’ll stay at home unless I am invited [if I am not invited] to the party. 要是不邀请我去参加晚会,我就呆在家里。(也就是说:“邀请我参加晚会”会结束“我将呆在家里”这一现在的打算)/ You’ll not succeed unless you work hard [if you don’t work hard]. 如果不努力,你就不会成功。(也就是说:“努力”会结束“你将不成功”这一现在已存在的趋向)。
若要表示所述条件会导致一种新的想法或情况,通常要用 if…not, 而不用unless。试体会:I’ll be angry if I’m not invited to the party. 如果不邀请我参加晚会,我会生气的。(也就是说:“不邀请我去参加晚会”会导致一种新情况――“我会生气”)/ I will be surprised if he doesn’t have an accident. 他要是不出事,我倒感到奇怪了。(也就是说:“他不出事”会导致一种新情况――“我感到奇怪”)
(2) 表示虚拟条件时,一般用 if…not:I would have died if the doctors had not saved me. 要不是医生救了我,我早就死了。/ She’d be pretty if she didn’t wear so much make-up. 要是她不过分打扮,本来是挺漂亮的。
(3) unless引导的从句中有时根据语义的需要可用否定词,而if…not从句中不可再加否定词:
正:I will go unless no one else does. 如果没有别的人去就 我去。
误:I will go if no one else doesn’t.
(4) 两个if…not从句可用and连接,但是两个unless从句却不能用and连接:
正:She won’t lose weight if she does not keep a diet and if she does not take exercise every day. 如果她不按规 定进食,不每天进行锻炼,那么她的体重就不会减轻。
正:She won’t lose weight unless she keeps a diet and takes exercise every day.(同上)
误:She won’t lose weight unless she keeps a diet and unless she takes exercise every day. (www.yygrammar.com/)
