(2012·江苏高考) an important decision more on emotion than on reason，you will regret it sooner or later.
A．Based B．Basing
C．Base D．To base【解析】 句意：如果把一个重要决定更多地建立在情感上而不是理智上，你迟早会后悔的。根据题目与选项可知本题考查非谓语动词，C项是谓语动词，首先排除。A项过去分词表示被动，但句子的主语不是base的承受者，因此A项应排除。B项和D项都表示主动，但不定式表示将来，在句中常作目的或结果状语，与句意不符。动词base和逻辑主语you之间为主谓关系，故答案为B。

He's pretty well finished his latest book already.
他最近的一本书已差不多完成了。【提示】 as well常用作状语，作“又；也”解，相当于too或also，常位于句末，无须用逗号与句子分开。
as well as常用来连接两个并列的成分，如名词、形容词、动词、介词短语等。它强调的是前一项，后一项只是顺便提及。因此连接并列主语时，谓语动词与前一项一致；翻译时要先译后面，再译前面。而用not only...but also...连接时，谓语动词与后一项一致。【教师备课资源】
用作介词时，as well as相当于besides，in addition to，意思为“除……之外”，后面通常接名词或动词，尤其是位于句首时。7．get on with进步；进展；继续做；与……相处

Some students prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested in.It will also make it possible for them to take their favourite jobs in the future.However，those who think differently believe that the environment is important to one's development and that graduates from leading universities are often more likely to find a good job.In my opinion，the best choice is a good major at a good university.If we cannot obtain both，the first thing to consider is a good major，because no matter where we study，we can still achieve a lot in a certain field if we try our best.
