GMAT语法主谓一致之倒装结构内容十分简单,只要大家把握住“倒装结构的主谓一致取决于真正的主语”这一原则,认真分析,相信一定能培养出GMAT语法好的语感和题感。
一、倒装结构考点。
倒装结构的主谓一致取决于真正的主语。例如,
正前方就是长城:Ahead of us is the Great Wall.
这句话中Ahead of us是表语形容词,不决定后面谓语动词的形式。谓语动词“is”和“the Great Wall”保持一致。这句话的正序表述是“The Great Wall is ahead of us.”倒装是我们考试的重点。所以,我们要仔细分析这种结构。
二、例题解析。
为帮助大家更好地理解GMAT语法中的倒装结构,小编为大家分析一道例题,希望能加深理解。
Developing nations in various parts of the world have amassed $700 billion in debts; at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
(A) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is
(B) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, are
(C) should they repudiate a significant number of these debts, are
(D) if there is a repudiation of a significant number of these debts, would be
(E) if a significant number of these debts will be repudiated, is
答案:A
解析:根据我们之前讲过的做题规则,分号之前的话可以忽略不读。介词加名词可以不读,两个逗号之间的插入语不对句子造成影响可以忽略不读,这时就剩下尾句的“……be the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.”谓语动词“be”的主语如果没在前面就在后面,通过分析我们知道是“the solvency”,由于“the solvency”是单数,所以我们的谓语动词选用“is”,排除选项B/C/D。选项E时间状语从句、条件状语从句不能使用将来时,if和when引导的从句后不能有will。所以选项E排除。正确答案为A。
GMAT语法主谓一致之倒装结构就为大家讲解到这里了,希望大家通过练习能够对倒装结构形成条件反射,大家可以多多练习这类结构,相信一定能够取得GMAT高分成绩。
