高二Unit 4高考考点链接
1. But whether buses or trains or boarding aeroplanes, there wasn’t a door she’d get through.
【要点】get through在此意为“通过”，其还可表“完成；度过；打通（电话）”等意思。
【考点】I couldn’t _______. The line was busy. (2005浙江)
A. go by B. go around C. get in D. get through
【指点】此句意为“我无法打通。电话占线了”，故选D。get in 进站；收割；插入。go by （时间）过去；经过（地点）。go around 走来走去。
2. China has a long history during which many of the world’s greatest poets were active.
【要点】during which在此引导限制性定语从句。介词后表物时只能用关系代词which。
【考点】Mark was a student at this university from 1999 to 2003, ________, he studied very hard and was made Chairman of the Students’ Union. （2005重庆）
A. during which time B. for which time
C. during whose time D. by that time
【指点】根据前后语境我们可知“迈克在1999到2003年期间学习刻苦并被选为学生会主席”。“在那期间”用during the /that time，由于此处为非限制性定语从句，故选A项。
3. Chinese readers admire his works because of his use of surprising images that reminds them of the works of poets such as Su Dongpo.
【要点】remind两个常用句型是remind sb. of sth.（使某人想起某事/提醒某人注意某事）和remind sb. to do sth.（提醒某人做某事）。
【考点】In our childhood, we were often ________ by Grandma to pay attention to our table manners. （2005江苏）
A. demanded B. reminded C. allowed D. hoped
【指点】此句意为“在我们童年时，奶妈常提醒我们注意餐桌礼仪”。由于英语中无demand/ hope sb. to do sth.结构，故A、D项不对。C项不合语境。故选B项。
4. Once published, his work became famous for the absence of rhyme at the end of each line.
【要点】Once published是Once it was published的省略，once引导条件状语从句。在时间、地点、条件、让步或比较状语从句中，如果谓语含有be动词，而且主从句主语一致时，主语和be动词均可省略(状语从句的连词往往保留)。
【考点】The research is so designed that once _______ nothing can be done to change it. （NMET2002）
A. begins B. having begun C. beginning D. begun
【指点】很明显the research与begin间为被动关系，故用过去分词begun，即D项正确。此句意为“这项研究设计得如此好以致一旦开始任何事都不可能改变它”。
5. Finally, modern poets have their special attraction because they stand closest to us both in the language and images they use.
【要点】stand close to表“靠近，接近”。注意此结构中的close为副词，多指距离远近，而closely表“仔细地，密切地，严密地”。如：Watch him closely. 盯着他。
【考点】It was raining heavily. Little Mary felt cold, so she stood ________ to her mother. (2002北京)
A. close B. closely C. closed D. closing
【指点】很明显A项正确。另外，closed表“封（关）闭的”。
