从一道高考题看插入语在高考中的运用 　　2005年高考福建卷有这样一道高考题: 　　――Is that the small town you often refer to? 　　――Right, just the one ____ you know I used to 　　work for years. 　　 A. that B. which C. where D. what 　　分析:该题的正确答案为C。答句的意思为“对，就是你所知道的我曾在那儿工作多年的那个（小镇）。”，对此题进行分析，重点是能理解句子的结构，其中you know用作插入语，对我们解题具有一定的干扰作用，实际上这里的the one后面跟着一个定语从句，将you know这个插入语去掉不影响句意的表达，空格处用疑问副词在从句中作状语。 　　插入语是中学英语的重要语法内容，也是高考的考点之一。理解了插入语的用法可以帮助我们排除干扰，作出正确的选择。 　　插入语通常与句中其它部分没有语法上的联系，将它删掉之后，句子结构仍然完整。在书写时插入语前后多半都用逗号与句子隔开。插入语在句中通常是对一句话的一些附加解释，说明或总结；有时表达说话者的态度和看法；有时起强调的作用；有时是为了引起对方的注意；还可以起转移话题或说明事由的作用；也可以承上启下，使句子与前面的语句衔接的更紧密一些。 　　1. 一个陈述句或一般疑问句用作插入语。如：I am sure, I believe, I think, I know, do you know, do you think, I suppose, I hope, I’m afraid, you see, it is said, what’s more, that is to say, as we know, as I see, believe it or not等，特别地，在疑问句中插入do you know, do you think等时，应将疑问词放在句首，插入语后面的部分用陈述句语序。例如： 　　I believe, China will be sure to succeed in hosting the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. 我确信，中国一定能成功主办2008年北京奥运会。 　　Some animals only half-hibernate, that is to say, their sleep is not such a deep one. 　　有些动物只是半冬眠，就是说它们睡的不那么深沉。 　　I’m sorry I can’t go to the cinema with you because I have a lot of housework to do tonight. What’s more, I’ll have to help my brother with his maths. 很抱歉，我今晚不能和你一起去看电影，因为我有许多家务要做，而且我也要帮弟弟学数学。 　　Which country do you think the Greens have traveled to for a holiday? 你认为格林一家曾去哪个国家度过假？ 　　2.介词短语作插入语。此类介词短语有：of course, in fact, to one’s surprise/joy/excitement/disappointment/regret/delight, in one’s opinion, in brief， in general, in a word, in other words, in a few words, by the way, as a result, for example/instance, on the contrary, in short, as a matter of fact, in conclusion, on the other hand等。例如： 　　To their disappointment, their daughter failed in the exam this time again. 令他们失望的是，他们的女儿这次考试又没及格。 　　California is not in the east of the USA. On the contrary, it’s in the west of it. 加利福尼亚不在美国的东部，相反，它在美国的西部。 　　You can’t wait any more―in other words, you should start at once. 　　你不能再等了，
