(3)表示时间的in和after:

11. Nobody knows it ____ me.
A. except for B. except that C. besides D. but/except
except意为"只有……除外;除去……",后跟名词或代词作宾语,强调从整体中除去部分,即except后的部分不包括在整体之内。因此,常和all, everything, no one, nothing等词一起使用。其判别标志是:除去的与保留的是"同类项"。
except for...是"除了因为……;要不是……;除去……一点外"的意思,表示"对一个人或事物,先做一个整体评价,然后再就局部提出一点看法"。即一部分被肯定,另一部分被否定,这就是所谓的"排除否定式"。其判别标志是:除去的与保留的"不是同类项"。
besides相当于as well as,意为"除了……以外还有……",即"除去一部分还有另外一部分"的意思,表示besides 后面的部分包括在整体之内。
No one but her parents ______ it.
A. know B. knows C. is knowing d. are knowing
答案是B。
这题真正的主语是No one 是第三人称单数 所以要选B No one 才是真正的主语。
这个语法现象叫主谓一致
当主语有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等词组成的短语时,谓语动词与前面的主语部分一致。例如:
The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory. 教师和一些学生在参观工厂。
He as well as I wants to go boating.他和我想去划船。
12. The window is never opened ____ in summer.
A. but B. except C. except for D. but for
but for总表示“要不是”,与动词虚拟语气连用;except for总是作“除……之外”解,与动词的陈述语气连用, 关于 but 与 except两者都可表示“除…外不再有…”,但含义上略有差别:
but侧重指意义的几乎完整性,而 except 则侧重指后面除去的部分:All are here but one. 除一个人外大家都到了。All are here except one. 还有一个人没到。还有一个人没到。另外,在现代英语中,but 的介词用法十分有限,一般说来,它只能用在下列词语之后:① no, no one, nobody, nothing, nowhere 等② any, anyone, anybody, anything, anywhere 等③ every, everyone, everybody, everything, everywhere 等④ all, none 等⑤ who, what, where 等Everyone knows it but you. 除你之外大家都知道。I haven’t told anybody but you. 除你之外,我没告诉任何人。No one but he [him] showed much interest in it. 除他之外没有一个人对此有很大兴趣。
但是 except 却没有以上限制:正:The window is never opened except in summer. 除夏天外,这扇窗户从不打开。误:The window is never opened but in summer.
