考点2 offer v. 主动提出; 自愿给予

offer to help. 如果你的父母遇到了问题, 你应该主动提
供帮助。(教材·P27)
*Our school offers us hot water.
(=Our school offers hot water to us. )
我们学校为我们提供热水。
【自主归纳】offer的用法
offer动词, 意为“主动提出; 自愿给予”, 常见结构有:
(1)offer to do sth. 意为“自愿做某事”。
(2)后接双宾语, offer sb. sth. 相当于offer sth. __
(for/to)sb. , 意为“为某人提供某物”。
to
【易错警示】
若offer所接的直接宾语和间接宾语都为代词, 只能
用后者, 即offer sth. (代词)to sb. (代词)。
【妙辨异同】 provide, offer与give辨析
三个词均有“供给; 供应”之意, 区别主要在结构上。
【即学活用】
①(2016·天津中考)I wanted to see the Beijing Opera,

③(2016·自贡中考)This restaurant______people______
delicious food.
A. provides; for B. offers; to C. provides; with
【解析】选C。考查动词短语。句意: 这家餐馆为人们
提供美味的食品。短语provide sb. with sth. 相当于
provide sth. for sb. , offer sth. to sb. 相当于offer sb. sth.
。这些结构都有“为某人提供某物”的意思, 由题干分
析可知只有C项结构正确。

⑥_________ you don’t have any now, you will soon

Although
【知识详解】
1. until意为“直到”, 引导时间状语从句。
(1)当主句是肯定句时, 句中的谓语动词必须是延续性
动词。
We waited until it was dark yesterday.
昨天我们一直等到天黑。
(2)not. . . until. . . 意为“直到……才……”, 主句的谓
语动词一般是非延续性动词, 它所表示的动作直到until
所表示的时间才发生。
They won’t come back until they finish the work.
直到完成那项工作他们才会回来。
【图解助记】
2. although
although是连词, 意思是“虽然, 尽管”, 引导让步状语
从句, 可以放在主句前面, 也可以放在主句后面。
Although he was angry, he didn’t argue with her.
尽管他很生气, 但他没跟她争论。
We still walked on although it rained hard.
尽管雨下得很大, 我们仍然继续前行。
3. so that
(1)so that意为“以便; 为了”, 常用来引导目的状语从
句, 一般放在主句后, 且不用逗号隔开。目的状语从句
常表示动机(即一种可能性), 因此从句中常带有can,
could, would, should等情态动词。
I study hard so that I can catch up with my classmates.
我努力学习, 以便赶上我的同学。
He runs every morning so that he can keep healthy.
为了保持健康, 他每天早晨跑步。
(2)当so that从句的主语和主句主语一致时, 可用in
order to或不定式短语替换, 其意义基本不变。
*We started early so that we could catch the first bus.
(=We started early in order to catch the first bus. )
为了搭上第一班公共汽车我们很早就动身了。
【拓展延伸】
1. although与though
当although意为“尽管; 虽然”时, though可以与其互
换, 二者都不能与but, however连用。
though还可以用作副词, 放在句子结尾, 意为“可是, 不
过”, 在短语as though和even though中, though不能用
although替换。
2. so that与so. . . that. . .
so that
意为“以便; 为了”, 引导目的状语
从句
意为“因此; 所以”, 引导结果状语
从句, 从句中一般不用can, may等情
态动词, 在so that前可以用逗号和主
句隔开
so. . . that. . . 意为“如此……以至于……”, 引导
结果状语从句
【温馨提示】
so. . . that. . . 句式中, that引导的结果状语从句为肯定
句时, so. . . that. . . 可以与be. . . enough to do转换; 当
从句为否定句时, 可以与too. . . to. . . 或be not. . .
enough to do转换。
The boy is so young that he can’t look after himself.
(=The boy is not old enough to look after himself. )
(=The boy is too young to look after himself. )
这男孩太小了还不能照顾自己。
