连词和介词短语练习及解析
The conference has been held to discuss the effects of tourism the wildlife in the area. A.in B.on C.at D.with 〖答案〗B
介词的用法比较复杂, 且多为固定搭配,无多少道理可讲, 因而对介词的掌握主要靠平时多观察、多留心、多记忆。本题中的名词effects制约着后面介词的选用。an effect on sth.意为 “对某事的影响/作用”。 “对……产生影响”用have an effect/the effects on sb./sth. 例如：The film had quite an effect on her.

—Yes. He had never praised him ________ he became one of the top students in his grade. A. after B. unless C. until D. when 〖答案〗C
not never…until/till “直……才”； “不到……不”；依上下文看, 这是一位对孩子要求很严格的父亲, 由此看出他不会轻易表扬人, 直到他成为年级中拔尖的学生才表扬他。正合题意。用after时, 前后时态不对, 因为学生要先优秀后被表扬；B, D与句意不符。答案为C。 Sally worked late in the evening to finish her report __________ her boss could read it first thing next morning.
