Unit 8 Learning a foreign language

典型例题

1.“Did you have any trouble _____the house?”

“No, but I had a lot of difficulty _____.Nobody seemed to know where the key was.”

A.in finding;to get in B.to find;getting into

C.finding;getting into D.finding;getting in

【题解】选D。have some/no/any difficulty in doing sth.是一个常用句型,意为“在做某事上有难处/没有难处”。句型中的in可以省去。

2.In order to make our city more beautiful,______.

A.it is necessary to have planted more trees

B.many more trees need to plant

C.our city needs more trees

D.we must plant more trees

【题解】选D。该题考查的是非谓语动词(动词不定式)。作状语的动词不定式的逻辑主语应与主句的主语一致。该句意思为“为了使我们的城市更美丽,我们必须种更多的树木”。

3.I won’t go to the party unless ____.

A.to invite B.inviting C.invited D.will be invited

【题解】选C。该题考查省略。连词unless,when,while,if等其后的主语如果与主句的主语一致,可以把从句中的主语和动词的一部分省去,此句在unless后省掉了I am。连词后常常出现过去分词(如与主句的主语之间是被动关系),或是出现现在分词(如与主句的主语是主动关系)。如:If(it is)heated,the ice can be turned into water.(如果被加热,冰能变成水。)Be care while/when(you are)crossing the street.(穿过马路时要小心。)

4.Americans eat _____vegetables per person today as they did in 1910.

A.more than twice B.as twice as many

C.twice as many as D.more than twice as many

【题解】选D。该题考查倍数的表达方式,倍数表示法有如下四种:①…+数字(或倍数)+比较级+than…。如:The is room is three times larger than that one.(这个房间比那个大三倍。)②……倍数+as+形容词或副词+as+…。如:A is twice as long as B.A的长度是B的两倍。③…+by+数字(或倍数)+…。如:This ruler is longer than that larger by 2 inches(或by twice).(这把尺子比那把尺子长二英寸(或两倍)。)④…倍数+the size(height,length,width etc.)of+…。如:The river is five times the length of that stream.(这条河有那条小溪五倍长。)据上,D为正确答案。

5.All the preparations for the task _____,and we’re ready to start.

A.completed B.have been completed

C.had been completed D.complete

【题解】选B。因为第二句是一般现在时态,所以选B用现在完成时表示现在所处的状态,与第二句相吻合。

6.The pictures brought the happy days back to me _____we worked together in that faraway village.

A.until B.that C.when D.where

【题解】选C。when在此句中引导定语从句,修饰days,句意是“那些照片使我想起了我们在那遥远的村庄一起劳动的那段日子”。

7.The stadiums,_____were already full,were surrounded by a lot of football fans who had no tickets.

A.most of that B.most of which C.which most D.that most

【题解】选B。在定语从句中,介词后不能用that,只能用which或whom,因为the stadiums表示物,所以用which,而whom代表人。

8.What she said sounded ______.

A.beautifully B.friendly C.wonderfully D.badly

【题解】选B。sound,taste,smell,feel,look等感觉概念系动词后面要接形容词作表语,在四个选项中只有friendly是形容词,其他三项都不是。故选B。

9.I don’t suppose anyone will volunteer,_____?

A.do I B.don’t I C.will they D.won’t they

【题解】选C。在面放,believe,suppose后面跟宾语从句时,反意疑问句跟从句一致。

10.If you _____my glasses,can you let me have them,please?

A.come about B.come across C.come on D.come up

【题解】选B。come across意为“偶尔发现”;come out意为“产生”“发生”;come on意为“过来”“加油”;come up意为“发芽”“出现”。由句意可知B项符合题意。

语法指南

虚拟语气(一)

虚拟语气的构成比较特殊,它有各种不同的动词形式,通过这些不同的动词形式来表示不同时间的情况,这些动词形式所表示的意思一般与事实相反。这里我们首先来研究虚拟语气在含if从句的主从复合句中有哪些用法。英语中if从句有两种:一种是以陈述语气叙述的叫做真实条件句,说明所提出的假想是可以实现的;另一种是以虚拟语气叙述的,叫做非真实条件句,说明所提出的假想实现的可能性极小或与事实相反。这种虚拟语气一般因所指时间的不同而分三种情况,即:与现在事实相反;与过去事实相反;与将来事实相反。

▲表示与现在事实相反。动词形式列表如下:

If I were you,I wouldn’t do that.我要是你的话,我不会那样干。(In fact I’m not you.)

If he were here,he would be glad to see you.

他要是在这里,见到你会很高兴的。(In fact he’s not here.)

If I had much money,I should buy a house.

我要是有许多钱的话,就买房子。(In fact I don’t have much money.)

If I had the book at hand,I would read the passage to you.

如果我手头有这本书的话,我就把那一段读给你听了。(But I don’t have the book at hand.)

She would help you if you asked her.

你如果请她的话,她会帮助你的。(But I don’t you won’t ask her.)

He would learn more quickly if he worked harder.

如果用功些,他会学得更快。(But he doesn’t work hard enough.)

▲表示与过去事实相反,动词形式列表如下:

If you had studied hard,you would have passed the exam.

如果你学习用功的话,你就通过考试了。(But you didn’t study hard enough.)

If you had seen the film,you would have enjoyed it very much.

若是看了这部电影,你会非常喜欢的。(But in fact you didn’t see the film.)

She would have gone to the party if she had been invited.

如果她得到邀请的话,她就会去参加聚会了。(But she wasn’t invited.)

He could have caught the train if he had hurried.

如果他抓紧一点的话,他就赶上那趟火车了。(But she wasn’t invited.)

I would have overslept if she hadn’t called me.

如果她不叫我的话,我就睡过头了。(In fact she called me and I didn’t overslept.)

If I had known her telephone number,I would have called her.

如果我知道她的电话号码,我就给她打电话了。(But I didn’t know her telephone number,so I didn’t call her.)

If the hurricane had happened during the night-time,there would have been many more deaths.

飓风如果发生在夜间,死亡的人将会更多。(In fact the hurricane happened during the day-time.)

▲表示与将来事实相反,动词形式列表如下:

If从句谓语动词形式 主句谓语动词形式

①should + 动词原形

②用动词的过去式(be一律用were)

③were + 不定式 用would/could/should/might + 动词原形

If it should rain(或rained,或were to rain)tomorrow.I wouldn’t go out.

明天如果下雨,我就不出去了。(But I know it won’t rain tomorrow.)

If I did(或should do,或were to do)that,she would feel very surprised.

我如果做这件事的话,她会感到十分吃惊的。(So I won’t do that.)

If I failed(或should fail,或were to fail),I would try again.

我若是不成功,我会再试一次。(I know that most probably I won’t fail.)

▲在书面语中,有时if虚拟从句可使用倒装形式,其规则是:如果if从句中含有were,助动词,had或should时,则可省略连接词if,而把were,had或should移至主语之前。如:

Were I you(=If I were you),I would take the job.如果我是你的话,我就接受那份工作。

Had they not helped us(=If they had not helped us),we wouldn’t have succeeded.

如果没有他们的帮助,我们就不会成功。

Had you come yesterday(=If you had come yesterday),you would nave met him.

你要是昨天来的话,你就会见到他了。

Should it rain tomorrow/Were it to rain tomorrow(=If it should rain tomorrow),what would you do?

万一明天下雨的话,你们怎么办?

Were it not for the sun(=If it were not for the sun),nothing could exist on earth.

如果没有太阳,世界上将什么都不能存在。

【注】这种倒装形式的虚拟语气,通常带有文学色彩,一般出现于书面语中,通常不用于口语中。

▲如果虚拟语气中主句和从句所表示的动作发生在不同的时间里,那么动词形式应根据它所表示的时间进行调整,一般有以下两种情况:①从句说的是过去,而主句讲的是现在;②从句说是的现在,主句讲的是过去。如:

If you had followed his advice,you wouldn’t be introduce now.

=Had you followed his advice,you wouldn’t be in trouble now.

你当初如果听从他的劝告,现在就不会陷入这种困境了。

(You didn’t follow his advice and that’s why you are introduce now.)

If she had taken the medicine,she would be all right now.

= Had she taken the medicine then,she would be all right now.

她当时如果吃了药,现在就好了。

(She didn’t take the medicine then and that’s why she is still ill now.)

If I were you(= Were I you),I would have gone with her.

我要是你的话,我就跟她一起去了。(I didn’t go with her because I’m not you.)

Ⅳ.阅读理解

A

James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves.His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9.There,a school teacher asked the youth his name.

“J .C.,” he replied.

She thought he had said “Jesse,” and he had a new name.

Owens ran his first race at age 13.After high school,he went to Ohio State University.He had to work part time so as to pay for his education.As a second-year student,in the Big Ten games in 1935,he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.

A week before the Big Ten meet,Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs.His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week,and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet.He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try,event by event.He did try,and the results are in the record book.

The stage was set for Owens’ victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year,and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic(体育的)but also political.Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.

“It was all right with me,”he said years later.“I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him,anyway.”

Having returned from Berlin,he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country,either.In fact,he was not honored by the United States until l976,four years before his death.

Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him.He earned his living by looking after a school playground,and accepted money to race against cars,trucks,motorcycles,and dogs.

“Sure,it bothered(烦扰)me,” he said later.“But at least it was an honest living.I had to eat.”

In time,however,his gold medals(奖牌)changed his life.“They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said.“Time has stood still for me.That golden moment dies hard.”

1.Owens got his other name “Jesse” when _____.

A.he went too Ohio State University B.his teacher made fun of him

C.his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse” D.he won sold medals in the Big Ten meet

2.In the Big Ten meet,Owens _____.

A.hurt himself in the back B.succeeded in setting many records

C.tried every sports event but failed D.had to give up some events

3.We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because_____.

A.he was not of the right race

B.he was the son of a poor farmer

C.he didn’t shake hands with Hitler

D.he didn’t talk to the US president on the phone

4.When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means that the medals_____.

A.have been changed for money to help him live on

B.have made him famous in the US

C.have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life

D.have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs

5.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A.Jesse Owens,a Great American Athlete

B.Golden Moment--a Life-time Struggle

C.Making a living as a Sportsman

D.How to Be a Successful Athlete?

B

Many experts complain that media too often take advantage of the science fiction aspects of nanotech(纳米技术).Reports of nanotech often refer to K.Eric Drexler’s book Engines of Creations,which predicts an age full of dominant molecular(分子的)manufacturing and a world without material scarcity.Whatever humans need will one day be built cheaply with microscopic self-replicating machines(微细自我复制机)that put atoms together to create copies of anything alive in the world--from trees to human bodies.

In fact,the scientific community is deeply divided over whether self-replicating machines are possible.If they are,major dangers could exist.Mr.Drexler himself thought that self-replication machines could probably go out of control.He writes in his book that man-made “plants” with “leaves no more efficient than today’s solar cells could win over real plants,crowding the earth with leaves that are not suitable to be eaten.Tough ‘bacteria’ could be more competitive than the real bacteria, they could spread everywhere,replicate swiftly,and reduce the earth to dust in a matter of days.”

Critics of nanotech have made use of such images,calling for a delay on commercial nanotech until regulations are established.They also point to the possible military uses of nanotech.Bill Joy,the co-founder of Sun Microsystems,wrote in a Wired magazine essay in 2,000 if nanotech falls into the wrong hands,it could bring dangers to society.

Opponents say Mr Joy is overreacting.“In a way,calling for bans on research into molecular manufacturing is like calling for a delay on faster-than-light travel because no one is doing it,” says Glenn Reynolds,a University of Tennessee law professor.

Professor Reynolds says it is a good idea to regulate nanotech,but in ways the government would regulate any products that could be dangerous.Export controls and certification systems for nanotech companies are examples.US lawmakers have put forth four bills on nanotech research and development.

6.K.Eric Drexler in his book predicts a future world with sufficient material:because______.

A.man-made plants could replace real plants and grow more quickly

B.plants produced by nanotech would be as efficient as today’s solar cells

C.man-made bacteria would be widespread and capable of self-replicating

D.human could create copies of anything alive with high technology

7. To call for a delay on commercial nanotech,critics of nanotech make use of_____.

A.current social problems

B.science fiction descriptions

C.disagreements in the scientific community

D.the fact that no one is doing molecular manufacturing

8.Opponents of Bill Joy would NOT agree to ____.

A.control nanotech export

B.ban nanotech research to avoid any possible dangers

C.put forth bills on nanotech research and development

D.establish a certification system for nanotech companies

9.Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

A.Nanotech should not be put into wrong use in the military field

B.The government should regulate products that could be dangerous

C.Nanotech regulations should be established in spite of the divided opinions

D.The media should not take advantage of the science fiction aspects of nanotech

Dear brother,

I’ve just received your letter telling us that you’ve passed the college entrance examination. I’m glad and proud of it. When the family heard of the news, they were all delighted, too. Grandma was so pleased that she burst into tears. The family asked me to write to you and congratulate you on your success.

In your letter you told me that you were going to make a tour on Huangshan with a few of your classmates and would be back in a week. The family are looking forward to your coming back soon. All of us have been missing you!

篇2:高三英语unit7 A Christmas Carol同步

Unit 7 A Christmas Carol

典型例题

1.The plane flew ____ in the sky and people spoke _____ of the experienced pilot.

A.highly;highly B. high;high

C.high;highly D.highly;high

【题解】选C。 high与highly在本题中都是副词,其区别是:high表示具体的高度,表示具体概念;highly通常指内心的估价,表示抽象概念,只用于比喻,说明程度,意为“高度地”,从所修饰的动词来看,C项为正确答案。

2.A new play ____at the theatre this week.Would you like to see it?

A.has been put on B.has put on

C.is being put on D.will put on

【题解】选C。首先考虑这是一个被动语态句,需排除B、D两项。根据第二个句子的意思可知,该戏还在公演,而选项A用现在完成时具有结束之意,与第二句相矛盾,故应排除。选项C用的是被动语态的现在进行时,表示put on这一动作在此阶段正在进行,符合句意。

3.Suddenly all the lights went out,and I got a ____candle.

A.lit B.lighted C.lighting D.light

【题解】选B。本题是过去分词作定语,修饰名词candle,意为“点燃的蜡烛”。但动词light的过去分词有两种形式,即lit和lighted,前者只能作谓语动词用,后者不仅可以作谓语,还可作定语用,故本题只能用lighted。

4.Give this to _____you think can do the work well.

A.who B.whoever C.whomever D.however

【题解】选B。本题中介词to后面接的是宾语从句,所选的词应是宾语从句的主语。故C、D两项可先排除。在A、B两项中,who引导宾语从句时通常含有疑问之意,而whoever意为“任何人”,相当于anyone who。句中的you think是插入语。句意是“把这给你认为能做好这工作的任何人”,无疑问之意,故选B。

5._____ supper,the students went out for a walk.

A.Having had B.Having C.Eating D.Having taken

【题解】选A。本题是现在分词作状语。但该状语所表示的动作先于谓语动词动作的发生,故分词应该用完成式,又由于表示“吃饭”用动词have,而不用have,故弃D选A。

6.He used to_____ his teaching years ago,but now he is used to ____a boss.

A.devote to;be B.be devoted to;being

C.devote himself;be D.devote;being

【题解】选B。used to后接动词原形,意为“过去常常”,devote to意为“献身于”,由于devote是及物动词,故后须接宾语或用被动语态形式;而be used to意为“习惯于”,后接名词、代词或动词-ing形式,据以上分析,应选B。题意为“几年以前他一心扑在教学上,但现在他已习惯于当老板了。”

7.We were all wild with joy _____the news that our football team had won the game.

A.at B.on C.by D.for

【题解】选A。本题表示“欣喜若狂”的原因是由于得知足球队得胜的消息。at可用来表示“见了或听了某事后而产生的惊、喜、怒、哀、乐”等情绪,通常用在一些表示情绪的动词或形容词之后。本题其它选项中的介词不能表达此意。

8.____to sing a song,Miss Green couldn’t very well refuse.

A.To be asked B.Having asked

C.Inviting D.Asked

【题解】选D。本题的要点是区别动词的非谓语形式,由于该非谓语形式在句中作状语,且与主语是被动关系,故应该用被动式。B、C两项是主动式,应排除。在A、D项之间,A项是不定式,通常表示目的;D项是过去分词,表示被动且表示主句与谓语动作同步发生,符合题意。

9.He stood by the window with ____me.

A.his eyes fixed on B.his eyes fixing on

C.fixing his eyes to D.his eyes to fix on

【题解】选A。本题带有with复合结构。fix one’s eyes on sb./sth.表示“眼睛盯着某人或某物”,在复合结构中one’s eyes和fix是被动关系,故选A。

10.We talked and laughed ____the dinner and had a wonderful time.

A.in B.at C.over D.for

【题解】选C。laugh不与in或for连用。laugh at意为“嘲笑”,不合题意,over在此处意为“在(做)……时”,题意是:我们在吃饭时边吃边谈笑。再如:He sang over his work.(他边工作边唱歌。)其中的over也是此意。

语法指南

状 语

状语是修饰动词、形容词、副词或整个句子的成分。在句中状语的位置比较灵活,一般来说,修饰形容词的状语,放在被修饰动词之前。修饰动词的状语,放在动词之后,但有些副词如often,always,never,usually等则放在动词之前,能够作状语的有:副词、形容词或形容词短语、名词或名词短语、不定式、分词及从句。现简述如下:

▲副词作状语。如:

Have you seen him recently?你最近见到他了吗?

Generally she remained in on Sunday evening.一般说来星期日晚上她都留在家里。

I foolishly forgot my passport.我愚蠢地忘了带护照。

It rained,therefore,the game was put off.下雨了,因此球赛推迟了。

▲介词短语作状语。如:

He traveled in Africa for six months.他在非洲旅行了六个月。

We found his house without difficulty.我们很容易地找到了他的家。

With all this rain, there’ll be good crop.有这么多雨水,收成会很好。

There’s a bank opposite my office.我办公室对面有一家银行。

▲形容词及其短语作状语。如:

Greatly disappointed,he decided to leave the place.他大为失望,决定离开这个地方。

They waited,breathless,for the result.他们屏住呼吸等待结果。

They all rushed over,eager to help him.他们都跑了过来,急于要帮助他。

He spent five days in the wind and snow,cold and hungry.他又冷又饿地在风雪中过了五天。

▲不定式作状语。如:

He came here to borrow a bike.他来这儿借辆自行车。

Man sends rockets into outer space to study conditions there.

人类把火箭送到外层空间去探索那里的情况。

Tom was so foolish as to tell lies to the police.汤姆太傻了,竟对警察说谎。

I pretended to be happy to know him.我装出了由于认识他而高兴的样子。

▲分词作状语。如:

Seeing the sun rising above the surface of the sea, we let out a shout of joy.

看到太阳从海面升起来,我们高兴得叫了起来。

Seen form the hill,our school looks more beautiful.从山上望去,我们的学校更美了。

Judging from his accent,he must be from Henan.从口音上判断,他肯定是河南人。

Buried deep down in the earth,the dead forests rotted away and became coal.

由于在地下埋得很深,死的森林腐烂而变成了煤。

【注】分词作状语时,当分词的逻辑主语不是句子的主语时,分词需带自已的主语,从而形成独立主格结构作状语。如:

There being no bus,we had to walk home.没有公共汽车了,我们只得步行回家。

He lay on his hack,his hands crossed under his head.他面朝天,头枕着手躺着。

Jack being away,John had to do the work.杰克不在,只好由约翰来做这工作。

▲名词或其短语作状语。如:

We walked ten miles to the town. 我们走了十英里到了这个镇上。

He came here the day before yesterday.他前天到这儿。

Wait a minute,please.请等一下。

▲状语从句

状语从句在句中用来修饰谓语、定语、状语或整个句子。根据其意思的不同,可分为时间、地点、原因、目的、结果、方式、比较、条件等九种状语从句,每种状语从句都有一定的连词引导,所以,我们在复习状语从句时,一定要把有关连词的意思、用法和注意事项弄清楚。下面我们对各类状语从句作必要的说明。

▲时间状语从句通常由when,while,as,as soon as,until,till,the moment,the instant,every time,once,directly,immediately等连词引导。如:

When I have finished,I’ll tell you.当我完成的时候,我就告诉你。

As soon as he arrives,he will start work.他一到达,就开始工作。

We knew that till he arrived nothing would be done.我们知道,直到他到达之前,没有办法。

The moment I saw him,I recognized him.我一见到他就认出他来了。

Every time he came,he would bring me some books to read.每次他来,总要带些书给我看。

They have been discussing this question since the meeting began.

从会议开始到现在,他们一直在讨论这个问题。

Once the film is made,all the young people will want to see it.

这部影片一拍好,所有的年轻人都会想看。

【注】在时间状语从句中,连词when和while的用法有所不同。when既可以指一点时间,又可以指一段时间;而while只能指一段时间,所以在while引导的状语从句中,不能用终止性动词。另外,在when和while从句中,只要从句的主语与主句的主语一致,在从句中就可以省去主语和to be,只用一个现在分词或过去分词,有时可在when和while之后直接跟介词短语。如:

When completed,the railway will connect the two cities.

这条铁路建成后,将把这两个城市连接起来。

While in London,Marx spent a lot of time studying in the British Museum.

马克思在伦敦的时候,用了很多时间在大英博物馆学习研究。

Be careful when crossing the street.过马路时要当心。

【注】as在时间状语从句中经常指一个动作的过程,所以从句大都用进行时态,如我们不能说as he came,但可以说as he was coming into the room。因为as he came表示动作已结束,而as he was coming表示一个正在进行的动作。

【注】当我们看到until或till引导的时间状语从句时要特别注意,当主句是肯定句时,谓语动词一定要用持续性动词;当主句是否定句时,谓语动词既可以是终止性动词,也可以是持续性动词。如:

We walked along the river until it was dark.我们沿着河散步,到天黑才回去。

I didn’t go to bed until the clock struck twelve.我直到十二点才去睡觉。

He didn’t know anything about it until I told him.直到我告诉他,他才知道此事。

▲地点状语从句

地点状语从句实际上只有两个连词,即where和wherever。如:

Put the medicine where he can easily get it.把药放在他容易拿到的地方。

Wherever you go,you will always find the same thing.不论你去哪里,你总会发现同样的事情。

Put a mark where you find a question.在发现问题的地方做一个记号。

Where the high building stands there used to be some low houses.

在那座高楼耸立的地方,原来有一些低矮的房子。

▲原因状语从句

原因状语从句由as,because,since,now that等引导。如:

As you are here,you had better help me.既然你在这里,你最好来帮助我。

Since you won’t take advice,there is no point in asking for it.既然你不听忠告,就没有征求的必要。

Now that you are here,let’s have a discussion over the question.

既然你们都在这里,我们就讨论一下这个问题吧!

I do it because I like it.因为我喜欢我才干。

【注】as,since,now that,seeing that等连词意思很接近,我们可以把它们作为一类放在一起与because从句作比较,as等从句所叙述的原因实际上读者是知道的,或是自己能看得出的,因而不是整个句子的重点所在,而because引导的从句是整个句子的重点所在。试比较下列句子:

As he is honest,we all like him.由于他很诚实,我们都喜欢他。

We all like him because he is honest.我们喜欢他是因为他诚实。

前一句重点在于说明我们都喜欢他,而后一句则着重说明我们喜欢他的原因,语气上显然有很大的不同,请体会其中的差异。

▲方式状语从句

方式状语从句通常描写一个人或物是什么样子,或者一件事是如何做的,其主要的连词是as和as if(as though)。以as if(as though)引导的从句,如讲的是与事实相反的情况,则要用虚拟语气。如:

Do as I tell you.照我告诉你们的去做。

The students do the maths exercises as the teacher has taught them.

学生们按照老师教的去做数学练习。

Just as water is the most important of liquids,air is the most important of the gases.

正如水是液体中最重要的液体一样,空气是气体中最重要的气体。

You should do the experiment as the teacher does.你应该像老师那样去做实验。

She opened her lips as if she were going to say something.她张着嘴,好像要说些什么。

He reached out his hand as though he were going to catch something.

他伸出手来,好像在设法捕捉一个什么东西。

▲比较状语从句

此类从句是提出一个事实或情况与主句表达的事情或情况相比较,有各种类型的比较,如同级比较、比较级,或两者同时增强或减弱的正比例比较,也有一增一减的反比例比较。如:

This film is not such an interesting one as people say.这部影片不像人们说的那样有趣。

Her performance was better than we expected.她的表演比我们预料的要好些。

If you study maths,the more practice there is,the higher your skills will be.

如果你学数学,练得越多,你的技巧也就越高。

The more I read the novel,the less I like it.这部小说我越看越不喜欢。

She loves her motherland as dearly as she loves her mother.她像爱她的母亲一样地爱着她的祖国。

The more you practice speaking English,the better you win do it.你英语说得越多,就说得越好。

▲让步状语从句

让步状语从句常用though,although,while,as,no matter+疑问词,however,whatever等词引导。请看下列例句:

Although it was late,he continued doing his homework.尽管时间很晚了,但他仍在继续做作业。

Although she was in a hurry,she stopped to help the boy.

尽管她很匆忙,但她还是停了下来帮助这个男孩。

Their gift,though it is small,is great in reality.他们的礼物即使微薄,但实际上却是很丰厚的。

Although the medicine tastes bad,yet it can cure your illness.尽管药的味道不好,但它能治你的病。

(1)as引导的让步状语从句必须倒装,though有时也可这样用。如:

Tired as he was,he went on working.尽管他很疲劳,但仍继续工作。

Child as he was,he knew a lot.尽管他还是个孩子,但他懂得很多。

Bravely though/as the players fought,they had no chance of winning.

虽然运动员们奋力拼搏,但他们无望获胜。

Old as he is,he is very strong.尽管他年纪大了,他仍很强壮。

【注】在as引导的让步状语从句中,如名词置于句首,则不能用不定冠词。though引导的让步状语从句有语序倒装现象时,一般不用although。同时,连词while也可引导让步状语从句,但不能用倒装语序。如:

While it can do a lot of things for man,a computer can’t work without man’s help.

虽然计算机能为人做许多事,但没有人的帮助它是不能工作的。

While I admit that the problems are difficult,I don’t agree that they can’t be solved.

虽然我承认这些问题很困难,但我并不同意它们无法解决。

(2)让步状语从句还可由even if或even though引导,作“纵然”、“即使”解,但不能用even although。如:

Even if he had been very busy,he would have come to help us.

即使他当时很忙,他也会来帮助我们的。

Even if you are not fond of flowers,you shouldn’t miss the flower exhibition.

即使你不喜欢花,这次花展你也该去看一看。

(3)if有时也可引导让步状语从句,作“即使”“虽然”解释。如:

If the country is poor,it is developing very fast.即使这个国家很穷,它也在迅速发展。

My mother thus made the key point of a(n) 6 apology:it must be direct.You must never 7 to be doing something else.You do not 8 a pile of letters while apologizing to a person 9 in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your 10 .You do not apologize to a hostess(主人),whose guest of honor you treat 11 ,by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad 12 .

One of the important things we should do for an 13 .Apology is a readiness to 14 the responsibility(责任)for our careless mistakes.We are used to making excuses,which leaves no 15 for the other person to 16 us.Since most people are openhearted,the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling 17 themselves.That,after all,is the 18 of every apology.It 19 little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault:answering for one’s 20 encourages others to take their share of the blame.

Martha had been working for Miller Laboratories for two years,but she was not happy there.Nothing significant had happened in the way of promotions or salary increases. Martha felt that her supervisor,a younger and less experienced person than she,did not like her.In fact,the supervisor often said unpleasant things to her.

One day,while talking with her friend Maria,she mentioned how discouraged she was.Maria gave her the name of a cousin of hers who was direct or of Human Resources Department for a large chemical company.Martha called him the next day and set up an interview on her lunch hour.

During the interview,Mr Petri said,“You’re just the kind of person we need here.You’re being wasted in your other job.Give me a call in a day or two.I’m sure we can find a place for you in our organization.” Martha was so happy she almost danced out of the building.

That afternoon,Ruth Kenny,her supervisor,saw that Martha had come in ten minutes late from her lunch hour and she said,“Oh,so you finally decided to come back to work today?”

This was the last straw.She could not take another insult.Besides,Mr Petri was right:She was being wasted in this job.

“Look,”she said angrily,“if you don’t like the way I work,I don’t need to stay here.I’ll where I’m appreciated!Good-bye!” She took up her things and stormed out of the office.

That night she called Maria and told her what had happened and then asked Maria,“What do you think?”

“Well,” said Maria carefully,“are you sure about the other job?”

“Well,not exactly,but…”

Maria continued,“Will you be able to get a recommendation from Mrs. Kenny if you need one?”

“A recommendation from Mrs. Kenny?”hesitated Martha,in a worried tone.

“Martha,I hope you didn’t burn your bridges.” Maria said.“I think I would have handled it differently.”

Elephants don’t forget --at least,female(雌性的)elephants don’t. Elephant families are matriarchal. And the social knowledge gained by the oldest females is the key to a family group’s survival(生存),according to a study publish in April by Karen McComb,a biologist at Sussex University in England.

Elephants announce their presence by making a deep, long sound, a practice referred to as contact calling(联络呼叫).An unfamiliar call may mean that an elephant from outside the family group is nearby.A stranger can cause trouble,interrupting feeding or disturbing the young.So an elephant matriarch signals the family to gather around her;then they all lift their trunks in the air to smell the unfamiliar caller.False alarms can disturb the group and take time and energy away from feeding,so survival may depend in part on getting it right.

Working with Cynthia Moss,who founded the Amboseli Elephant Research Project in Kenya 30 years ago,McComb tested the social knowledge of 21 Amboseli elephant families with matriarchs 27 to 67 years old.She played recordings of contact calls to each family and found that the oldest matriarchs were much better at picking out unfamiliar calls.In fact,a group with a matriarch in her fifties was several thousand times more likely to form into a group upon hearing an unfamiliar contact all than when hearing a familiar call.However,families with younger matriarchs were less than twice as likely to gather together upon he hearing an familiar contact call as compared with a familiar call.And they gathered together a lot.Moreover,the social knowledge of older matriarchs translated into favorable results:Families with older matriarchs produced more baby elephants in each female-reproductive year.

This finding shows how difficult it is to protect the oldest members of elephant families.As elephants age,they continue to grow larger,as do their much wanted tusks(象牙).So the older--and wiser--a matriarch is,the greater the chance she will be killed.About 800,000 elephants have been killed by people in the past 20 years.

5.What does the underlined word “matriarch” mean?

A.An old member of an elephant family.

B.A female head of an elephant family.

C.A wise elephant.

D.A large elephant.

6.When do elephants form into a group?

A.When they are feeding the young.

B.When they see a familiar elephant.

C.When they are giving birth to baby elephants.

D.When the leading elephant gives out a warning.

7.The research with recordings of contact calls shows ____.

A.how fast elephants form into groups

B.how important the age of a leading elephant is

C.how frightened elephants are when hearing a strange call

D.how frequently old elephants call other members of the family

8.The older a female elephant is,____.

A.the stronger she will be

B.the poorer memory she will have

C.the more useless her tusks will be

D.the more likely she will be killed

9.We can infer from the passage that elephants may _____.

A.run into other elephant families

B.give wrong warnings to their mothers

C.run away upon hearing a strange sound

D.produce more babies gathering together more often

Unit 6 Going west

典题欣赏

1.The last person _____is my old friend,Rose.

A.left B.to leave C.leaving D.being left

【题解】选B。本题要选的是一个后置定语,序数词或最高级被一动词修饰时,该动词通常用不定式。因此选B。若选left,则造成整个句子结构错误;C项是现在分词,只能作前置定语;leave为不及物动词,无被动式,故D项错误。

2.The day the child had looked forward to ____at last.

A.coming B.comes C.come D.came

【题解】选D。本题很容易误选A。学生往往只记住look forward to后接动词-ing形式,而忽略了从整个句子的结构上来考虑。本题中look forward to的宾语是先行词The day,在定语从句中省略了关系代词that,需要填入的是主句的谓语动词。由于定语从句中用了过去完成时,主句中应用一般过去时,而不用一般现在时,故选D。

3.I really don’t know _____kept the secret papers.

A.where was it B.it was where that

C.where it was that D.where was it that

【题解】选C。本题是一个强调句作know的宾语从句的结构。由于被强调的成分是疑问副词where,故在宾语从句中应采用“疑问词+陈述句”的语序,选项A、B、D均是语序错误;且A项缺少that,只有C项符合语法规则。

4.They all went to the football game,____the rest of the work till the next day.

A.left B.leaving C.to leave D.after leaving

【题解】选B。本题是现在分词短语作状语,表示主语的另一个动作,即在去看足球赛的同时,把余下的工作留到第二天去做,A项的left如理解为一个过去式,则需加并列连词,C项的to leave是一个不定式,通常作目的状语,用在此处不合题意。D项中after多余,故选B。

5.The girl seldom,if____,turned to her elder brother for protection.

A.never B.ever C.then D.always

【题解】选B。even用在此处是一个副词,意为“任何时候”,用在疑问句、否定句或条件状语从句中。如:He is seldom, if ever, absent from school.(他简直从不缺课。)本题亦是这种用法,句意为“那个女孩几乎从不向她的哥哥寻求保护”。never与前面的seldom相重复;then和always一般用于肯定句中。

6.It was freezing cold.I put on my overcoat,but it didn't seem to_____.

A.help B.heat C.make D.warm

【题解】选A。由seem to可知后面应是动词原形,故D项可先予以排除。然后根据help, heat, make三个动词的意思来确定答案。根据题意,应选help为妥,因为heat意为“加热”,大衣只能保暖,不能加热。make是使役动词,必须接宾语及宾补才能使句子完整,故这两个词无论在句意还是结构上都不合题意。help在这里作“起作用”解。

7.She didn't agree ____in her lake the other day.

A.him to fish B.his fishing

C.to him to fish D.to his fishing

【题解】选D。动词agree后通常接介词with, to或on。with后一般接sb.;to后接sth.,但不能接不定式作宾补,故可排除A、C两项。本题选项中的her fishing相当于sth.,故用to。所以,D为正确选项。

8.“Did you quarrel with the manager?” “Yes,but ____that.”

A.I'd rather not do B.I'd rather not have done

C.I'd like not to do D.I'd like not to have done

【题解】选B。根据对话情景和but这一转折连词,可知说话人在表示自责或后悔,由此考虑would rather选项,排除would like选项。当对过去行为表示自责或后悔时,would rather后面的动词应用have done形式,由此弃A选B。表达这一意思时,would rather后面的宾语从句中的谓语动词应用过去完成时,因此这一句也可以说成I'd rather I hadn't done that.

9.As a writer,he succeeded in calling ____to many of the terrible wrongs that existed at that time.

A.interest B.notice C.attention D.mind

【题解】选C。本题的意思是“作为一个作家,他成功地唤起了人们对当时存在的很多冤屈的注意”。引起人们的注意,应该用attention; interest意为“兴趣”,其后应跟介词in;notice与mind的意思都离题甚远。

10.Has she ever asked him the reason ____may explain his coming late?

A.that B.for which C.why D.for which

【题解】选A。通常修饰reason的定语从句都用why引导,并且why在定语从句中作原因状语,但本题中定语从句的关系代词要作从句的主语,why是关系副词,不能作主语,故应该用that。

He has hued through countless dangers but time may be running out for the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat.

On September 11,Israel announced its decision to remove him,following several Palestinian suicide bomb(自杀性炸弹)attacks on Israel. “He has done nothing to stop the terrorist groups.”

But the decision has angered many other countries.China said that Arafat is the true leader,elected by the Palestinian people,and removing him would harm the peace in the Middle East. This view is shared by other governments.

Arafat himself said: ”They can kill me,but never get me out of my country.”He has spent most of his life in danger as the chief target of Israel.But,just like a cat with nine lives,Arafat escaped every time.

For years he has made a practice of sleeping in a different bed each night for ears he has made a practice of sleeping my,thinking a being target is harder to hit.

In 1985,Israel sent fighter planes to kill Arafat.Me wild bombing destroyed his old headquarters(总部)in Tunis but Arafat himself was unhurt.

In 1992,the aircraft in which he was flying over north Africa broke in two during a crash landing.. The crew was killed but he managed to remain alive.

What is so unbelievable is that he always remains calm in great danger.

Israeli tanks and helicopters attacked his headquarters in Ramallah in December,.When they saw the attackers coming,Arafat's bodyguards ignored his orders to stay still and carried him to safety underground. Seconds later, several bombs exploded nearby. Through safe,his bodyguards were so scared they were soaked in sweat.

But Arafat,with Israeli tanks only 200 metres away,showed no fear at all.He stayed in the damaged office,contacting foreign leaders in hope of preventing further attacks from Israel.

All these experiences have made him a mysterious man,and one of the world's most legendary(传奇式的)leaders.

But has he used up the last of his nine lives? Only time will tell.

1.What is the main idea of the story?

A.Arafat was in danger again after Israel's decision to remove him.

B.Arafat faced dangers without fear.

C.Arafat was one of the most legendary leaders in the world.

If there is no difference in general intelligence(智力)between boys and girls, what can explain girls' poor performance in science and mathematics?

It seems to be that their treatment at school is a direct cause.Mathematics and science are seen as subjects mainly for boys,and therefore,as girls become teenagers,they are less likely to take them. Interestingly,both boys and girls often regard the subjects for boys as more difficult. Yet it has been suggested that girls do not take mathematics courses,not because they are difficult, but for social reasons.Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys they are afraid to appear less feminine(女性的)and attractive.

However,if we examine the performance of boys and girls who have taken mathematics courses,there are still more high-achieving boys than there are girls.This difference appears to be world-wide.Biological explanations have been offered for this,but there are other explanations too.

Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences.From their first days in kindergarten,boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks. Facts show that outstanding(杰出的)mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who supplied answers.

Besides,there can be little doubt that teachers of mathematics and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students.They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls.They spend more time with the boy students,giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them.They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion.They also praise boys more frequently.All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and mathematics and to give them confidence(信心)that they are able to succeed.

Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many mathematics and science courses,nor is it likely to support girls who do.When it comes to these subjects it seem certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls.

5.Girls are likely to think that ______.

A.science courses are for both boys and girls

B.science courses make them more popular

C.science courses make them successful

D.science courses are difficult for them

6.The text mainly discusses ____reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements.

7.What are boys usually encouraged to do at school?

A.To get help with their homework.

B.To play the leading role in class.

C.To work with girl students in class.

D.To learn to take care of others.

8.What does the passage say about great mathematicians?

A.Their teachers did not supply answers to them.

B.They started learning mathematics at an earlier age.

C.They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years.

D.Their success resulted from their strong interest in mathematics.

9.Me author would probably agree that ______.

A.boys and girls s and learn in the same way

B.boys and girls are equal in general intelligence

C.girls are more confident in themselves than before

D.girls should take fewer science courses than boys
