2005年高考单选题分类练习答案与解析：

1. D。当前者的否定情况也适合于后者时，通常用否定副词nor/neither开头引起倒装句（部分倒装），并将助动词与前句的谓语动词保持一致。

2. B。so…that句型的倒装结构。so + 形容词或副词 + 助动词 + 主语 + that 从句。

3. B。此题考查as引导的一种特殊倒装句。连词as作“虽然”讲时，引导的让步状语从句通常可与although起首的从句通用，但as所引导的让步状语从句必须倒装，并且倒装的方式比较复杂，其中之一是：（形容词 +）可数名词单数（其前不可加冠词）+ as +主语 + be+主句。

4. B。此题考查完全倒装句：地点状语+谓语(be, stand, lie, sit, come)+主语。又因为句子主语是lakes,故谓语应用lie.可翻译为：在森林里有许多湖泊，有些大得能装下几个英国的市镇。

5.C 。此题考查only引起倒装句：Only + 状语（从句）+助动词 + 主语 + 谓语动词其余部分 + ……。

6. D。以否定副词little开头的句子应该部分倒装，即把助动词do放在主语之前。

7. A。否定副词短语Never before开头，它所在的句子应该部分倒装，把助动词has放在主语之前。

8. A。此题考查as引导特殊倒装句。其结构是：谓语+as+主语+情态动词或助动

词+主句。Try as she would=Although he tried或者 However hard he tried, “她虽然尽了最大努力，仍打不开门”。

9. D。在强调句型：“It iswas+被强调部分+thatwho+其余部分”中，如果被强调部分不是人，通常只用that。该句被强调部分是not until nearly a month later。

10. C。此题考查强调句的疑问式，how是被强调部分。
