语法篇第一部分：应试要求及策略一、测试要求及题型分析1、测试目的及要求：语法测试的目的主要是检查考生运用教学大纲所规定的语法结构及基本语法概念的能力。

要求考生能灵活、正确地运用教学大纲语法结构表一至四级的全部内容，在所给出的选择项中做出正确选择。

2、题型分析：语法在专业四级考试中与词汇共同为一项（GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY）测试内容，题型为多项选择题，每题共有四个选择项，要求考生选择其中正确的一项，共30题，其中语法内容约占12-13题左右。

二、评分标准本题（GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY）为客观题，共30题，原始分30分，占总分比重的15%。

三、解题思路和方法专业四级测试中的语法涵盖教学大纲语法结构表中的全部内容。

按照大纲要求，考生在答题时应体现出这些特点，即语法知识系统、语法概念清晰、形式正确、实际运用熟练。

为能充分备考，在平时的学习过程中，考生要熟悉并掌握大纲所列的语法项目，同时还应学会恰当的解题方法。

下面是我们的几点具体建议：1．充分领会出题意图语法考试题型为多项选择题，命题者通常会将备选项设计得非常相近以干扰考生。

因此在考试时，不要急于答题，首先应有意识地领会命题者的意图，正确判断考题所涉及的语法点，根据语法规则作出正确的选择。

例如在下题（1997年42题）中，考生首先就应该判断出本题是测试反意疑问句中前后对应问题。

When you have finished with that video tape, don’t forget to put it in my drawer, ______?A. do youB. will youC. don’t youD. won’t you答案是B。

根据语法规则，在“祈使句+反意疑问”构成的反意疑问句中，反意疑问部分通常用will you，won’t you等。

本题中祈使句是否定形式，故反意疑问句应为肯定形式。

2．注重语法规则的限制和例外考生解题时，在充分领会了出题意图，做出正确判断后，还应考虑其是否涉及语法的限制与例外。
