A. was used to； producing B. used to； producing C. was used to； produce D. used to； produce 2.suppose假设；以为 suppose意为“假设:以为”。" suppose. + that从句”意为“猜测/假定……”.此时，suppose相当于think。当主句的主语是第一人称I或we时，宾语从句中的否定词应该前移到主句谓语处(英语中把这种现象叫作“否定前移”)。do you suppose还可以作插入语，相当于do you think。 I don't suppose that she is right.我认为她不对。 拓展：be supposed to do sth.意为“应当做某事，被期待做某事”。其否定结构为be not supposed to do sth.，意为“不应当做某事”。 3.the number of………的数量 the number of…表示“……的数量”，后接复数名词作主语时，,谓语动词要用单数形式。 The number of students in our class is 50. 我们班学生的数量是50, 拓展：a number of…表示“许多；大量”，相当于many，修饰可数名词的复数形式。作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。number前可用large,small等词修饰.以表示程度。 A number of students are planting trees on the hill. 许多学生正在小山上植树。] 1.A number of volunteers from far away cities. A. is B. are C. is D. are come 2. The zoo keeper is worried because the number of visitors _____ smaller and smaller. A. become B. are becoming C. is becoming D. have become 4.表示建议的句型:Why don't you… Why don't you… 意为“你为什么不…… ”，常用于提出建议或表达看法，相当于"Why not… "其后接动词原形。常用答语： OK! /All right. /Good idea. /Yes, I think so. Why don't you go out for a picnic = Why not go out for a picnic 源:] 今天很热。你为什么不打开窗户呢 It's hot today. __ _____ ____open the window 5.speak-spoke-spoken up大点声说 Would you please speak up，as we can’t hear you 由于我们听不清楚，请你大点声说行吗 The teacher asked the shy girl _______ _______ _______. 6.形容词、副词比较级和最高级 不规则变化：good -- better -- best well -- better -- best
