Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
Sales of electric bicycles, or e-bikes, a hot item in consumer green tech, are expected to grow by more than 50% in North America during 2013. Actor William Shatner, who is no stranger to futuristic tech, recently purchased two e-bikes for him and his wife.
I've been shopping for an e-bike now for a few weeks, and I've had my eye on the folding electric bike. I've had folding bikes in the past and love the convenience of being able to throw my bike into my car.
The e-bike market is ready to go mainstream in the U. S.. The price for e-bikes has come down greatly in recent months. At one time, most e-bikes with good components and proper weight were in the $ 3,000 range. Now you can find reasonable quality e-bikes in the $ 1,000 range. With gas prices at all-time highs,e-bikes are an attractive, low-cost option to gas efficient vehicles.
E-bike owners are finding that they are great for commuting(上下班往返) to work,as traditional bikes can be a problem with office dress and sweat.
People who use e-bikes range from commuters to casual cyclists who like a little help with hills and wind, to those who decide to save money on buying a motor bike. These are not for the serious road cyclist or professional mountain biker.
If you're considering buying an e-bike, it pays to do some research first. Cheaper e-bikes are going to be heavier and have less battery-power. Higher priced bikes will be made from lighter materials and have better batteries.
Another consideration is local motor vehicle laws. For example,according to U.S. federal law,as long as your electric bike is under 750 watts and does not go over 20 MPH then it is a bicycle and not a motor vehicle. Most consumer e-bikes in the $ 1,000 range don't fit the motorized vehicle description.
文章大意:电动车作为一种环保、方便的交通工具越来越受到人们的欢迎。
1. The writer introduces William Shatner as an example in order to ________.
A. show that he is wild about the future technology
B. tell us that he is an agent for the e-bike market
C. tell us that actors care only convenience not the price
D. show that e-bikes are really becoming popular now
答案:D 观点态度题。第一段的开头部分提到了电动车已成为绿色环保的一个热门话题,此处提到Willian Shatner主要是为了进一步说明电动车的普及。
2.According to the text, e-bikes are practical for ________.
A. serious road cyclists
B. couples spending a holiday
C. people commuting to work
D. professional mountain bikers
答案:C 细节理解题。从People who use e-bikes range from commuters to causal cyclists,who like a little help with hills and wind, to those who decided to save money on buying a motor bike.These are not for the serious road cyclist or professional mountain biker.可知选C项。
3.Which of the following about e-bikes is true?
A. The cheaper e-bikes are usually made of lighter materials.
B. Most e-bikes in the $1,000 range are a bicycle, not a motor vehicle.
C. Local motor vehicle law doesn't have any limits to e-bikes.
D. E-bikes in the $1,000 range are too cheap to have better batteries.
答案:B 细节理解题。从Higher priced bikes will be made from lighter materials and have better batteries. 可知A项错误;从according to U.S.federal law, as long as your electric bike is under 750 watts and does not go over 20 MPH then it is a bicycle and not a motor vehicle.可知C项错误;从Now you can find reasonable quality e-bikes in the $1000 range.可知D项错误;从Most consumer e-bikes in the $1, 000 range don't fit the motorized vehicle description.可知B项正确。

English is a language particularly rich in idioms (习语), which usually don't obey logical and grammatical rules. Without idioms English would lose much of its variety and humor both in speech and writing.
In the old days the written language (novels, poems, plays and the Bible) was the source on which idioms were based. This was the case up until WWII. After the war new mediums had appeared in English-speaking society, there was a channel for the American way of life and the popular culture of the U. S. TV, movies and nowadays the interactive medium have changed the English language more to the American English direction.
How then does American English differ from British English in the use of idioms? There are no radical differences in actual use. The main differences are in the situations where idiomatic expressions are used. There have been many studies recently on this subject. American English adopts and creates new idioms at a much faster rate compared to British English. Also the idioms of AmE origin seem to spread faster and further. After it has first been established(建立)in the U. S. ,an American idiom may soon be found in other variants(变体)and dialects of English. Nowadays new British idioms seem to stay on the British Isles and are rarely encountered in the U. S.. British idioms are in fact more familiar to other Europeans or to the people of the British Commonwealth than to Americans, even though the language is same. The future of idiomatic expressions in the English language seems certain. They are more and more based on American English. This development will continue through new mediums like the Internet and interactive mediums. It is hard to say what this will do to idioms and what kind of new idioms are created. This will be an interesting development to follow, and by no means does it lessen the humor, variety and color of English language.
文章大意:文章主要说明了英语习语的源头和它进一步的发展过程,还进一步说明了美国英语和英式英语习语的不同,并且对习语未来的发展做出了进一步的预测。
5.Which one is the best title of the passage?
A. American English and British English
B. American English Developed from British English
C. American Idioms will replace British Idioms
D. The Development of English Idioms
答案:D 主旨大意题。全篇文章主要说明了英语习语的源头和它进一步的发展及其未来的发展,因此D项正确。
6.According to the passage, we can infer that________.
A. idioms usually aren't created based on logical and grammatical rules
B. idioms mainly come form the written language nowadays
C. American English creates more new idioms than American
D. British idioms are more important than American idioms
答案:A 推理判断题。关键句为第一段第一句话,习语是不遵循逻辑和语法规则的,由此可推断出A项正确。
7.Where did idioms come from in ancient times?
A. The written language.
B. New mediums.
C. The spoken language.
D. Speaker's creation.
答案:A 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句话,得知书面语是习语的起源依据,因此A项正确。
8.When a new idiom is created in America, it will soon ________.
A. be used all over the world
B. be laughed at by British people
C. be found used in England also
D. be used only in the United States
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第三段的内容尤其是此段中第七句话的内容,得知美国习语的传播速度非常的快和广,很快就能传到英国,因此C项正确。

You needn't have told me the news. I have already known it.
你本不必告诉我这个消息,我已经知道了。④could+have done表示对过去发生的事情的推测,但比may/might+have done表示推测的把握性大,意为“可能做过某事”,又可表示“本能够做某事(实际上却没做)”,暗含一种惋惜之意。

(1)(2013·陕西)The children ________ lost in the woods; otherwise, they would have been at the lakeside camp as scheduled.
A.must have got B.must get
C.should have got D.should get
答案:A 本题考查情态动词。句意:孩子们一定是在树林里迷路了,否则按时间他们会在湖边野营了。根据下文可知此处是做了很有把握的肯定的推测,故用must;由would have been 可知是过去的事情,要表示对于过去的事情的推测要用情态动词+have done的形式,故选A项。C项表示“本应该做某事(而没做)”。(2)(2014·浙江)They were abroad during the months when we were carrying out the investigation, or they ________ to our help.
A.would have come B.could come
C.have come D.had come
答案:A 本题考查虚拟语气。句意:我们实行调查时他们出国了,要不然的话,他们就会来帮助我们了。由关键信息or可知,此处是隐含的虚拟条件句,or相当于 If they hadn't been abroad,叙述与过去事实相反,主句谓语动词用would/should/could/might have done,故A项正确。3.We have been excavating layers of ash almost six metres thick, which suggests that they might have kept the fire burning all winter.
我们一直在挖掘一层层的积灰,几乎有六米厚,这意味着他们可能整个冬季都在烧火。
本句的主句是We have been excavating layers of ash almost six metres thick,其中形容词短语almost six metres thick作后置定语,修饰ash。which引导一个非限制性定语从句,在从句中suggests后跟that引导的宾语从句。have been excavating是现在完成进行时,表示从过去开始一直延续到现在,或将继续延续至将来。We have been working on this project for over a month now.
到目前为止,我们一直从事这个项目,已经一个多月了。比较网站
现在完成进行时和现在完成时
①现在完成时表示已经完成,而现在完成进行时表示还没完成还要延续下去。试比较:
They have built a house.(完成)
They have been building a house.(尚未完成)
②现在完成进行时是由“have/has been+doing”构成的,可表示动作的重复,而现在完成时一般不表示动作的重复。
Have you been meeting him recently?
你最近常和他见面吗?Have you met him recently?
你最近见到过他吗?
③现在完成进行时有时含有感彩,而现在完成时一般是客观地讲述一个事实。
I have been waiting for you for two hours.
我一直等了你两个小时。(可能表示不满)
I have waited for you for two hours.
我等了你两个小时。(说明一个事实)④现在完成进行时强调动作的延续性,而现在完成时强调结果。
Who has been eating these oranges?
谁一直在吃这些橘子呀?(可能还剩余一些)
Who has eaten these oranges?
谁把这些橘子吃了?(强调吃得一个不剩)⑤如果强调某一动作刚刚结束,并已产生某种影响时,常用现在完成进行时。
—Why are you looking a bit tired?
为什么你看来有点儿累?
—I have been cleaning the house.
我一直在打扫房子。活学活用
(1)(2014·湖南)Since the time humankind started gardening, we ________to make our environment more beautiful.
A.try B.have been trying
C.are trying D.will try
答案:B 考查动词时态。根据since引导的时间状语从句可知所填词表示“从过去一直持续到现在的动作”,强调其持续性,应用现在完成进行时,故选B项。(2)(2013·福建)The girl has a great interest in sport and ________ badminton classes twice a week over the last three years.
A.took B.is taking
C.takes D.has been taking
答案:D 本题考查时态用法。由over the last three years可知应选D项。4.Our evidence suggests that they did wear clothes made from animal skins.
我们有证据表明,他们的确穿的是用兽皮做成的衣服。
(1)suggest在此作“暗示,表明”解,其后的从句要用陈述语气;suggest作“建议”讲时,其后的从句要用虚拟语气,即从句谓语形式为“(should+)动词原形”。
The handwriting of the letter suggested that the letter was from a lady.
从书信的字体看,写信人是一位女士。
I suggested that we go for a walk after supper.
我建议我们晚饭后散步。知识拓展
suggest有两个意思:
①意为“提议,建议”,后接动词要用动名词形式;后接宾语从句时,从句用虚拟语气(“should+动词原形”,should常省略)。
It's noisy here. I suggest changing another hotel.
这里太吵了,我建议换个宾馆。
I suggest that the boy be sent to the hospital at once.
我建议立即把这个男孩儿送往医院。②意为“表明,显示,暗示”,后接宾语从句(不用虚拟语气)。
His expression suggests that he has got the job.
他脸上的表情表明他已经得到了那份工作。
注意:后接宾语从句要用虚拟语气(should+动词原形)的动词可记为:
一个坚持:insist
两个命令:command,order
四个建议:advise,suggest,recommend,propose
四个要求:ask,demand,request,require(2)本句中did表强调,且只能对谓语动词进行强调。助动词do有时态和人称的变化,可以用“do/does/did”,意为“的确,确实”。
Please do be quiet.
务请肃静。活学活用
(1)Bill suggested ________ a meeting on what to do for the Shanghai Expo during the vacation.
A.having held B.to hold
C.holding D.hold
答案:C 考查非谓语动词作宾语的用法。suggest“建议”,其后跟动名词作宾语。句意:比尔建议在假期开一个关于为上海世博会该做什么的会议。(2)完成句子
我知道他会帮助我们的,他确实这样做了。
________________________________________________
答案:I knew he would help us, and he did.5.Yes, indeed, as the botanical analyses have shown us, all the fields around here used to be part of a large shallow lake.
很对,植物学分析结果明确告诉我们,这儿四周曾经是一个很大的浅水湖。
句中as引导的是非限制性定语从句,并在从句中作宾语,指代后面句子的内容。比较网站
as与which在引导非限制性定语从句时的区别:
(1)as的用法:
①在从句中通常作主语指代整个主句;
②表示“正如,正像”;
③其引导的定语从句既可以放在主句之前也可以放在主句之后。
The Pacific is the largest ocean, as we all know.
太平洋是最大的洋,这一点我们都知道(正如我们所知道的,太平洋是最大的洋)。As is known to all, he is the best student in our class.
众所周知,他是我们班上最好的学生。(正如我们所知道的一样,他是我们班上最好的学生。)
(2)which的用法:
①关系代词,在从句中作主语或宾语,指代人或物。
②当指代整个主句时表示的意思是主句和从句之间是因果关系即因为所以。③其引导的非限制性定语从句只能放在主句之后。
Tom suddenly fell ill, which made us sad.
汤姆突然病倒,这使得我们很伤心。
The road was too slippery, which caused lots of accidents.
路太滑了,以至于引起了很多事故。
He was angry, which made him cry.
他太生气了以至于他哭了起来。

他周日还得上班,这是他不喜欢的。活学活用
(1)(2013·山东)There is no simple answer,________ is often the case in science.
A.as B.that
C.when D.where
答案:A 本题考查非限制性定语从句。句意:没有简单的答案,这在科学方面是常有的事。分析句子结构可知,此处引导非限制性定语从句,故排除B项;此处缺少主语,故排除C、D两项。“as is often the case”可以看成是固定表达,意为“这是常有的事”。(2)(2013·天津)We have launched another man-made satellite, ________ is announced in today's newspaper.
A.that B.which
C.who D.what
答案:B 本题考查定语从句。句意:我们又发射了一颗人造卫星,这是今天的报纸发布的。逗号前的句子是主句,作了逗号后句子的主语,故逗号后句子是非限制性定语从句。先行词在定语从句中作主语,指物,用which来引导故选B项。that不引导非限制性定语从句,who引导定语从句先行词指人,what不引导定语从句,只引导名词性从句。Ⅰ.单词拼写

Ⅴ.阅读理解
A new course on world heritage and its conservation offers a good opportunity for the young people to learn about the legacy (遗产) of humanity and gain a sense of responsibility to help protect the planet we live on.
According to a world heritage education programme jointly launched by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and China's Ministry of Education,the course will first be offered at several schools in Beijing before being included as a mandatory course (必修课) for high school students nationwide.
The new course covers photos, slide shows and documentaries on the magnificence of the world heritage sites. The class aims to tell children what world heritage is and why and how it should be protected. A total of 177 nations,including China, have signed the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. Listed are 754 sites all over the world,of which 29 are in China—the third most after Spain and Italy. Currently, protection of the country's cultural and natural resources leaves much to be desired. Education is undoubtedly the best way to cultivate people's sense for protecting cultural and natural resources.
The introduction of such a programme in Chinese classrooms will certainly help our young people realize the significance of common heritage, learning about world heritage sites, the history and traditions of different cultures, ecology, and the importance of protecting biological and cultural diversity.
More importantly, it will help cultivate a sense of responsibility in the minds of young participants. This is critical in protecting these cultural and natural legacies, as well as our living environment and the limited resources for sustainable development.

Ⅴ.阅读理解
The Tang Dynasty was probably the period when the Silk Road was at its busiest. One important centre on the road was the city of Chang'an, where present day Xi'an now stands. Chang'an was the capital city of this dynasty and by about 750 AD it had become a strong and successful capital of around two million people. Because of the chances for trade, a number of foreigners from countries bordering China lived in the city.
The markets at this time in Chang'an were perhaps the most exciting markets anywhere in the world. They sold goods from India, Japan, Korea, Turkey, Iran and other Arab countries and many items in the markets would have been completely new to some of the buyers. Interesting animals were sold together with exotic(奇异的) plants and strange medicines. Dried animals, dried foods and dried plants were laid out for sale next to rare seeds and spices (香料). But besides the hope to trade, which drew people together, China was still largely a mysterious country to the outside world and certainly the secret of the silk making was still unknown.
The route to the west followed different paths but the traders would have travelled from places to places, always looking for routes both to water and protection. However, the Ming Dynasty had its policy of isolation (闭关),together with the growth of Islam(伊斯兰), reduced the traffic along this ancient land route. Instead, sea routes became more popular and in the early 15th century there were many Chinese ships trading silk and other goods along the coasts of India, Arabia and Africa.
1.What does the underlined word “mysterious” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Ample. B. Wonderful.
C. Lively. D. Secret.
答案:D 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句子中的the secret of the silk making was still unknown可以看出,此处mysterious意为“神秘的”,含有“秘密的”之意。
2.According to the passage, people at that time would buy all the following objects in the markets in Chang'an EXCEPT ________.
A. dried food B. animals
C. ships D. strange medicines
答案:C 细节理解题。由第二段第三、四句可知,A、B、D三项都可以在那时长安的市场上买到,相关内容没有提到C项。
3.According to this passage, the Silk Road ________.
A. started just from Chang'an
B. ran not only by land but also by sea
C. only refers to the one through the desert
D. began in the Tang Dynasty for the first time
答案:B 细节理解题。由最后一段的最后两句可以看出,丝绸之路不但有陆路也有水路。
4.This passage mainly tells us ________.
A. the silk trade in the past
B. the rise and fall of the Silk Road
C. the hard life of the traders on the Silk Road
D. why sea routes became popular in the early 15th century
答案:B 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了唐朝陆上丝绸之路的繁荣及衰落,最后提及了海上丝绸之路的兴起,所以选B项。

China Is Not Happy was published in March, 2009. It is a follow-up to the 1996 work China Can Say No, a bestseller that complained about the influence of the West, and the US in particular on China. Thirteen years later, the authors of China Is Not Happy list their dissatisfaction with how China is being treated in the world today.
They argue that China needs to use its growing power and economic resources to build its own position of preeminence(卓越 ). “From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this world. ”the book says.
The authors, single out the US for special scorn(轻蔑).“The economic problem has shown the Chinese people that America does have problems, that what we've been saying is right,” said one of the authors.
The book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores. Yet much of the response to the book has been negative. Several reviews in the Chinese media have criticized the book's radical (激进的) opinions. The book is a way to “fish money from the pockets of the angry youth and angry elderly,” wrote one critic in the China Youth Daily. Meanwhile, a well-known sociologist, Li Yinhe, has said that China needs patriotism(爱国主义), but there is a limit. In her blog she wrote, “If we are to bully (欺负) other countries, take the world's resources and try to lead it,we're going over the top.”

The local university blood centre had a blood drive today at the Civic Centre auditorium(礼堂). Almost 300 people showed up, but about 50 were turned away for various medical reasons. Fifty others left because the lines were moving so slowly. The event concluded at 6 pm, three hours after the scheduled close. It was a long day for everyone—administrators, nurses, and donors(捐献者). But there were plenty of chairs and tables, and many people brought their own books, magazines, or newspapers.
The first thing the donors had to do, of course, was fill out the donor registration and screening(检查) form. When they finished filling out the form, they waited until a nurse called them to her desk. The average adult body contains 8 to 12 pints of blood. Donors can give one pint at a time. It takes body 2 to 4 weeks to replace this amount. Most donors filled up the pint bag within 5 to 10 minutes.
Before leaving, the donors received a sheet of instructions including:Do not lift any heavy objects for 12 hours. Leave your pressure bandage on for 2~3 hours. Do not smoke for at least 30 minutes. Avoid alcohol for the rest of the day. Do not do any laborious activity for 24 hours.
“I wish I could hug and kiss all the volunteers that are here today,” said Martha, the blood centre donor recruiter. “Many donors underestimate the importance of what they're doing. They think it is no big deal, but it is a big deal. Their blood is actually saving lives, helping other people to live, which will lead to a more harmonious society. We cannot thank them enough for that, nor can the recipients.”

答案:C if only表示“如果……就好了”,表示与事实相反,条件意味强烈,其谓语动词常用虚拟语气。此句表示过去的动作,应选用过去完成时。3.Having heard wolves howling in the forest, Lala accelerated her walk up the path to the caves fearing that there might be wild beasts lying in wait for her.
听见狼群在森林里嚎叫,拉拉加快了回洞穴的步伐,担心会有野兽在等着她。
此句中多处用了现在分词。“Having heard wolves howling in the forest”为现在分词的完成式在句中作原因状语,其中“howling in the forest”为现在分词短语作宾语补足语;而“fearing that...”在句中作伴随状语,其中that从句为动词fear的宾语;从句中的“lying in wait for her”为分词短语作后置定语修饰wild beasts。Having finished his report, Tom went to the playground to play basketball.
完成了他的报告,汤姆去操场打篮球了。
I saw him talking with his teacher just now.
刚才我看见他正和他老师谈话。
They walked on the road to the library, talking and laughing.
他们走在去图书馆的路上,说说笑笑。
This is the dog barking just now.
这就是刚才叫唤的那只狗。注意:现在分词作状语,其逻辑主语是句子的主语,它与主语之间构成主谓关系;现在分词作宾语补足语,与宾语有逻辑上的主谓关系;现在分词作定语,与所修饰的名词有逻辑上的主谓关系。活学活用
(1)________ to reach them on the phone, we sent an email instead.
A.Fail B.Failed
C.To fail D.Having failed
答案:D 句意:我们没能与他们取得电话联系,所以我们发了一封电子邮件。因为分词动作是由句中主语we发出,并且该动作又发生在谓语动词sent之前,故要用现在分词的完成式作原因状语,相当于as we had failed to reach them on the phone。(2)People sat together, ________ another earthquake in Japan.
A.talked about B.talking about
C.having talked about D.to talk about
答案:B 句意:人们坐在一起,谈论着发生在日本的又一次地震。从句意看,此处应为现在分词短语作伴随状语,不表完成,也不表将来,因此B项符合题意。4.She had almost reached her destination when a delicious smell arrested her progress and she stopped.
快到达目的地的时候,一阵香气扑鼻,她停下来,不往前走了。
句中“had done...when...”是一个常用句型,意为“(刚)做完了……就在那时……”。when表示“就在那时”时,常见句式及意义如下:①He was talking about his plans when suddenly the lights went off.
他还在喋喋不休地讲着他的计划,这时灯突然灭了。
②I was about to go to bed when someone knocked at the door.
我正要上床睡觉,这时有人敲门。
③We had hardly arrived when it began to snow.
我们刚到就开始下雨了。活学活用
(1)She had just finished her homework ________ her mother asked her to practice playing the piano yesterday.
A.when B.while
C.after D.since
答案:A 句意:昨天,她刚一做完作业母亲就让她练习弹钢琴。sb. had just done sth. when...“某人刚……就……”,when属于并列连词,前面的分句为when分句提供了时间背景。while后的从句动词用延续性的;after“……之后”;since“自从……”。(2)On a rainy day I was driving north through Vermont ________ I noticed a young man holding up a sign reading “Boston”.
A.which B.while
C.when D.as
答案:C 句意:在一个雨天我正开车沿佛蒙特向北行驶,这时我注意到一个年轻人正举着一个写着“波士顿”的牌子。when“在这时”。其他选项无此意。因此C项符合题意。5.He chose one large stone and began to use it like a hammer striking the edge of the scraper that needed sharpening.
他选了一大块石头,把它当作锤子敲打一个需要磨快的石刮刀边沿。
(1)本句中and连接两个并列谓语;that引导的定语从句修饰先行词scraper。(2)句中needed sharpening中的sharpening是动名词的主动形式表示被动意义,英语中need,want,require等动词后可以接动名词的主动形式表示被动意义,也可以用动词不定式的被动形式表示被动意义。
The house needs cleaning/to be cleaned.
这所房子需要打扫一下。
The sentence wants explaining/to be explained again.
这个句子需要再解释一遍。
知识拓展
在英语表达当中有很多用的是主动形式,但表达的意义却是被动的,现总结如下: ①表示感受、感官的连系动词feel,sound,taste,look等在主系表结构中常以主动形式表示被动含义。
The mixture tasted terrible.
这种混合物尝起来味道很不好。
②表达事物行为、方式的动词open,shut,lock,sell,write,wash等习惯上以主动形式表示被动含义。
This kind of cloth washes well.
这种布料很好洗。
The new door won't open.
新门打不开。③“be+形容词+不定式”结构常表示被动含义。
The problem is hard to solve.
这问题很难解决。
④be on show, be on sale, be under discussion等表被动意义。
Summer clothes are on sale.
夏装正在出售。
⑤“be worth doing”结构表示被动含义。
The film is worth seeing.
这部电影值得一看。⑥“不定式作后置定语”结构表示被动含义。
Would you like something to drink?
你想喝点什么吗?活学活用
(1)用恰当形式填空
Many buildings in the city need ________, but the one ________ first is the library.(repair)
答案:repairing; to be repaired 第一空sth. need repairing相当于sth. need to be repaired主动形式表示被动意义。第二空用不定式作定语表示时间上的“将来”。(2)As a result of the serious flood, two-thirds of the buildings in the area ________.
A.need repairing B.needs to repair
C.needs repairing D.need to repair
答案:A 考查主谓一致和非谓语动词。分数、百分数修饰名词,谓语动词的单复数取决于名词,此处two-thirds修饰buildings,故谓语动词取决于名词复数buildings,排除B、C两项;need doing=need to be done意为“需要被做”,故答案为A项。6.Abruptly she sat down, only to be scooped up by her laughing, shouting sister, Luna.
突然她坐了下来,结果被她的又笑又喊的妹妹卢娜一把抱了起来。
本句中only to be scooped up...作结果状语,强调意想不到的结果。
①He woke up only to find everyone gone.
他醒了过来结果发现大家都走了。
②She returned home only to find that no one was at home.
她回到家,才发现家里没有一个人。比较网站
不定式在句子中作结果状语,强调意料之外的结果,要注意不定式与句子主语的关系,是主谓关系的,用主动式,是被动关系的,用动词不定式的被动式;而v.-ing形式在句子中作结果状语,强调自然的、必然的结果。
The fire was too big and out of control, burning the whole building down.
火太大并失去了控制,把整座楼都烧倒了。活学活用
(1)补全句子
①他学习这么用功,结果竟然考试失利。
He studied hard ________ ________ ________ in the exam.
②Many highways have been built in China, ________ ________ ________ (使……更容易) for people to travel from one place to another.
答案:①only to fail ②making it easier(2)Last summer holiday, I went back to my hometown, ________ the neighbors and the house ________ I used to be familiar with were gone.
A.only finding; which B.only to find; that
C.only to find; whom D.found; that
答案:B 考查非谓语动词和定语从句。句意:去年暑假,我回到了家乡结果发现过去我熟悉的邻居和房子都不见了。only+不定式表示意料不到的结果,且先行词既有人又有物时用that引导定语从句,故选B项。单 元 写 作 如何描述事物
写作指导
本单元的写作任务是对某物进行介绍,说明其外形、颜色、形状、用途等。在说的基础上落笔成文,这就是一种描写文。 描写文(Description)是使叙述形象化的一种写作方法,就描写对象而言,描写可分为人物描写、景物描写、场面描写等;就描写的方式而言,描写可分为主观描写和客观描写。所谓主观描写,就是在描述人或事物的特征或特性时,也可把自己对此人或此事的看法表现出来,从而激发读者的感情。客观描写是就事论事,是一种真实的报道,目的在于告诉不能亲眼看见描写对象的读者景物的真实情况。描写文的写法多种多样,可以先从具体描写某一事物开始,然后再泛写与之相关的其他事物。也可以先写不重要的事物,最后重点突出所要描写的事物。也可以按照事物所处的空间顺序,如前后左右等,来描述事物。要灵活运用各种修辞方法,根据需要恰当地运用比喻、拟人、夸张等修辞手法,使描述更生动、形象,更好地说明问题。
写描写文应注意以下几个方面:
1.明确描写目的,描写只起修饰作用。
2.要抓住人或事的特点。
3.要充分发挥联想的能力,并采用一些比喻、拟人等修辞描写手段,从多方面表现事物的特征,唤起读者的想象。[常用句型]
