三、that /those的“替代”用法
1. that可以代替前文中的不可数名词, 也可代替前文中的可数名词。当代替单数可数名词时, that相当于the one。that只能指物, 不能指人。例如:
Few pleasures can equal __________ of a drink on a hot day. (NMET'99)
A. some B. any C. that D. those
本题答案是C。that代指pleasure。
The land of China is larger than that of India. (that代指the land)
2. that可以承前代指某个句子, 此时, 可以和it换用, 但that更常用。例如:
Tom had his motorbike stolen yesterday. Have you heard of that /it?
The two men were still following him, that was certain.
3. those可以代替前文中的复数名词, 相当于the ones。例如:
The students in Class 3 are more active than those of Class 4. (those代替students)
4. that通常指上文已提到过的事情, this常指下文将要阐述的内容。例如:
He hurt one of his legs. That is why he was absent from the meeting.
What he is really thinking of is this: he must have somebody to help with it.
四、so可用作替代词, 常用于 think, suppose, expect, believe, imagine, hope, fear, guess, be afraid等之后。so替代前文中的肯定句, not替代前文中的否定句。
例如:
—Do you suppose that he will beat his groupmate?
—I suppose so. (so代替“he will beat his groupmate”一句)
—Do you think it's going to rain over the weekend?
— __________.
A. I don't believe it B. I don't believe
C. I believe not so D. I believe not
本题答案为D。not代指“it is not going to rain over the weekend”。
五、do /does /did可以用来替代前文中的谓语动词词组。
例如:
—Tom won the first prize in the contest.
—So he did. (did =won the first prize)
Li Ming works harder than she does. (does =works hard)
六、不定式to可以用来代替前文中的动词或动词词组。例如:
—Will the Smiths go abroad this summer?
—No, they finally decided __________. (NMET'95)
A. not going B. not to go C. not to D. not to be going
本题答案是C。not to =not to go abroad.
—You ought to have come here ten minutes ago.
—I __________, but the train was late. (上海’96)
A. ought to B. ought to have
C. ought to come D. have ought to
本题答案是B。ought to have =ought to have come..., have不可省略。
七、if any /if so /if not可以用来代替前文中的整个句子。
例如:
—He will come to attend our meeting tomorrow.
—If so, we will be very glad for it. I think they will arrive there tomorrow afternoon. If not, they will be scolded.
There used to be few trees, if __________. (94’上海)
A. any B. some C. anything D. something
本题答案A。if any =if there used to be trees。
