II:TTFFTFFIV:driver(本次最后争议的一道题目之一,老师我和教研组的老师一开始也都下意识地填了driver's,觉得是被比较的对象,但是经过我仔细地对句子的分析,即"Charliefoundthathehasthesamewatchasthe_______
",整个句子是宾语从句,宾语中sbhas/havethesame....as....,这里的关键就是对as在句中成分的理解,as在这里是同级比较,比较的对象是I和sb,而不是I和某人的东西,as在这里做的是关系代词或者被看作连词,代先行词thesa
mewatch,后面是省略了thedriverhas的谓语部分,因此这道题目的答案我可以确定下来是driver。也有的老师认为这里的as仅仅是一个介词,然后是介词词组作副词成分)noticelakeboringhappilyfiveremember语法和词汇:II:CBDABDC
