一、真题再现
Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatles’ song “The Long and Winding Road ”. 56 is so breathtaking about the experience is the out-of-this-world scenes. The rolling sea of clouds you see once you are at the top will remind you how tiny we 57 (human) are.
The hot spring at the foot of the mountain is something you must try after the climb. It will 58 (undoubted) help you get refreshed! The amazing thing about the spring is that the colder the temperature gets, the 59 (hot) the spring! Strange, isn’t it But that’s how nature is --- always leaving us 60 (astonish).
What comes next is the endless series of steps. You can’t help wondering how hard it 61 (be) for the people then to put all those rocks into place. Though it is the only unnatural thing on your way up the mountain, still it highlights the whole adventure 62 offers a place where you can sit down to rest your 63 (ache) legs.
As the song goes, this long and winding road “will never disappear”, and it will always stick in the visitor’s memory. It sure does in 64 (I). While you’re in China, Mount Huangshan is 65 must to visit!

2). 本句中的it是形式主语(或先行主语),正真的主语是后面的动词不定式to put ... 。

E.g. It is important to remember this rule. =To remember this rule is important. 记住这条规则很重要。

一、真题再现
You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that' s part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic, "Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped(倾倒) from a truck all at once.
Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
28. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for
A. Beautifying the city he lives in.
B. Introducing eco-friendly products.
C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste.
D. Reducing garbage on the beach.
29. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3
A. To show the difficulty of their recycling.
B. To explain why they are useful.
C. To voice his views on modern art.
D. To find a substitute for them.
30. What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers
A. Calming.
B. Disturbing
C Refreshing
D. Challenging.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Artists' Opinions on Plastic Safety
B. Media Interest in Contemporary Art
C. Responsibility Demanded of Big Companies
D. Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures

四、关键结构和长难句
1. Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does .
does代替前面的make a difference。助动词do(does/did)可用作替代词,代替前面提到的动词及其连带成分,以避免重复。
E.g. “May I come round in the morning ”“Yes, please do.” “上午我可以来你家串门吗?”“是的,可以。”(do代替come round in the morning)
The Democrats believe they can spend your money better than you can. We don’t. 民主党人以为他们花你们的钱能够比你们自己花得更好。(do代替believe they can spend your money better than you can.)
“Have you finished your work ”“Yes, I did yesterday.”“你完成你的工作了吗?”“做完了,我昨天做完的。”(did代替finished my homework)
【参考译文】艺术家本杰明·冯·王(Benjamin Von Wong)想让你知道,它确实如此。
He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products是现在分词短语做状语,表示结果,其逻辑主语是builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage这件事,相当于一个which引导的非限制性定语从句:which forces viewers o re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.。
E.g. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat. 数百万英亩的湿地被抽干来解决不断增长的人口的吃与住,这极大地减少了水禽的栖息地。(= ... populations, which greatly reduced waterfowl habitat)
More highways have been built in China, making it much easier for people to travel form one place to another. 更多的高速公路已在中国被建成,这使得人们从一
地到另一地更加容易。(=More highways have been built in China, which makes it much easier for people to travel form one place to another.)
【参考译文】他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑,迫使观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系。
Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
made of ... 是过去分词短语形式作定语,修饰句子主语the sculpture;collected from ... 是过去分词短语形式作定语,修饰前面的plastic straws,相当于定语从句:which were collected from several volunteer beach cleanups。
【参考译文】这尊雕像由16.8万根从几次志愿清理海滩活动中收集来的塑料吸管制成,首次出现在越南胡志明市埃斯特拉购物中心。
Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled.
1). 本句整体上是but并列的两个并列句;but后面的分句中还有一个because引导的状语从句;在这个状语从句中又有and并列的两个并列句。
2). to drink with是动词不定式形式作定语,修饰前面的them。
当动词不定式充当定语,并与它所修饰的名词或代词在语义上存在着动宾关系,动词不定式中的动词与其所修饰的名词或代词不能构成动宾结构时,需加上适当的介词。
E.g. There are five pairs to choose from, but I'm at a loss which to buy. 有五双鞋供选择,但我不知道买那一双。
At one time people thought that Minnesota was not a good place to live in. 过去人们曾认为明尼苏达州不是一个居住的好地方。
【参考译文】塑料吸管绝不是塑料污染的最大的来源,但他们最近受到抨击,因为大多数人不需要用他们喝,因为他们的小尺寸和重量,他们不能被回收。
Every straw that' s part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.
1). that' s part of Von Wong's artwork是一个定语从句,关系代词that代替先行词straw在从句中做主语。
2). part of ... 意为“......的(不可分割的)一部分”,前面通常不加冠词。但当part前面有形容词修饰时通常要加冠词。
E.g. A sense of humor is part of a healthy personality. 幽默感是健康性格的一部分。
He used to say religious was part of the capitalist system. 他过去常说宗教是资本主义制度的一部分。
A large part of the estate went to the elder son. 大部分财产都给了大儿子。

3). that someone used for only a few minutes是一个定语从句,关系代词that代替先行词drink在从句中做宾语。

Once they decide which college to go to, students should research the admission procedures. 一旦学生们决定了上哪所大学,他们就应该研究一下办理入学的手续。
. 本句中的take意为“花费、占用(时间、钱、精力等)”,句子主语the straw是动词不定式to disappear中disappear的主语。可变为:Once the drink is gone, it will take the straw centuries to disappear.或Once the drink is gone, it will take centuries for the straw to disappear.
在“sb/sth takes/took ... + 动词不定式”结构中,sb/sth就是动词不定式的逻辑主语,
可改为“It takes/took sb/sth ... + 动词不定式”结构或“It takes/took ... for sb/sth +动词不定式”结构。
E.g. I took two hours to read the novel. 我花了两个小时读那部小说。(=It took me two hours to read the novel.或It took two ours for me to read the novel.)
Fontaine only took an instant to make up his mind. 封登只用了一瞬间,就下定了主意。(=It took Fontaine only an instant to make up his mind.或It took only an instant for Fontaine to make up his mind.)

"Truckload of Plastic, "
E.g. In some languages, 100 words make up half of all words used in daily conversations. 有些语言,100个词汇就占了日常会话中的使用的一半词汇。
2). which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped(倾倒) from a truck all at once是一个非限制性定语从句,关系代词which代替先行词more than 10,000 pieces of plastic在从句中做主语。
3). to look like they’d been dumped(倾倒) from a truck all at once是动词不定式短语做状语,表目的。
E.g. Group activities will be organized after class to help children develop team spirit. 将组织各种团体活动以帮助儿童培养团队精神。

一、真题再现
You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that' s part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic, "Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped(倾倒) from a truck all at once.

Take a view, the Landscape (风景) Photographer of the Year Award, was the idea of Charlie Waite, one of today’s most respected landscape photographers. Each year, the high standard of entries has shown that the Awards are the perfect platform to showcase the very best photography of the British landscape. Take a view is a desirable annual competition for photographers from all corners of the UK and beyond.
Mike Shepherd (2011) Skiddaw in Winter Cumbria, England It was an extremely cold winter’s evening and freezing fog hung in the air. I climbed to the top of a small rise and realised that the mist was little more than a few feet deep, and though it was only a short climb, I found myself completely above it and looking at a wonderfully clear view of Skiddaw with the sun setting in the west. I used classical techniques, translated from my college days spent in the darkroom into Photoshop, to achieve the black-and-white image (图像).
Timothy Smith (2014) Macclesfield Forest Cheshire, England I was back in my home town of Macclesfield to take some winter images. Walking up a path through the forest towards Shutlingsloe, a local high point, I came across a small clearing and immediately noticed the dead yellow grasses set against the fresh snow. The small pine added to the interest and I placed it centrally to take the view from the foreground right through into the forest.
21. Who would most probably enter for Take a view
A. Writers. B. Photographers.

1. Take a view, the Landscape (风景) Photographer of the Year Award, was the idea of Charlie Waite, one of today’s most respected landscape photographers.
句中的the Landscape (风景) Photographer of the Year Award是Take a view的同位语,起解释说明的作用;one of today’s most respected landscape photographers是Charlie Waite的同位语,也是起解释说明的作用。
【参考译文】Take a view,年度风景摄影师奖,是Charlie Waite的主意,他是当今最受尊敬的风景摄影师之一。
Each year, the high standard of entries has shown that the Awards are the perfect platform to showcase the very best photography of the British landscape.
1). that the Awards ... 是动词show后面的宾语从句。
2). very常用在first, last或形容词最高级前,起强化语的作用。
E.g. This cake ought to be very good, because I used the very best butter. 这糕点应当很好吃,因为我用了最好的奶油。

1). “little more than+数词(或名词)”,如同“no more than+数词(或名词)”一样,并不是用来表示精确的数字,而是用来表达说话人的主观看法或口气的:强调数量之少、事物之小或微不足道。一般可译为“仅仅”、“只不过”、“才”、“跟......一样少(或小)”等。但little在这里仍具有否定意义。是一种形式上表示比较、意义上表示等同的形容词或副词短语。
E.g. It’s worth little more than twenty dollars. 这个只不过值一先领。
He left little more than an hour ago. 他刚刚在一小时之前离开。
The American working man fought hard to achieve what he has. In the beginning he was little more than a slave. 美国劳工为了获得今日的一切经历了艰苦卓绝的斗争。起初他们只不过是奴隶而已。
2). 句中的completely above it和looking at ... 是两个并列的宾语补足语。一个是介词短语;一个是现在分词短语。
在“find + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”结构中,宾语补足语可由名词、形容词、分词、副词、介词短语或动词不定式来充当。

在“with+宾语+宾语补足语”结构(即with引入的复合结构)中,宾语补足语可由分词、形容词、介词短语、副词、动词不定式或名词来充当。在句首时,通常表示“在......情况下”;在句末时,通常表示附带的情况说明。

一、真题再现
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
32. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
33. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
34. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.

2). that cannot be measured by an IQ test, ... 是定语从句,先行词是everything。当先行词是all, something, everything, anything, nothing, little, much, none, one时,人们更多喜欢用that做关系代词或省去充当宾语的that(即零关系代词)。
E.g. She has everything (that) a woman could wish for. 她拥有女人想得到的一切。
Much that has been said tonight will soon be forgotten. 今天晚上说的许多花很快就会被忘记。
【参考译文】许多人现在把情商误解为一个人性格中几乎是所有令人向往却不能用智商测试来衡量的东西,比如品格、动机、自信心、心理稳定性、乐观和“人际交往技巧”。
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes.
1). prefer后面既可以接动词不定式也可以接动名词作宾语,没有什么区别。
E.g. Do you prefer to cook/cooking for yourself, or to eat/eating in a restaurant 你喜欢自己做饭吃,还是到饭店吃?
2). that can be used for either good or bad purposes是定语从句,先行词是skills。
. either ... or ...意为“......或者......,要么......要么......”,用来连接两个对等的部分。即既可以连接两个形式对等的词,也可以是两个短语,还可以是两个句法作用对等的分句。
E.g. You can either write or phone to request a copy. 你既可以写信也可以打电话索取一本。
I left it either on the table or in the drawer. 我不是把它丢在桌子上了,就是丢在抽屉里了。
Either you leave now or I call the police. 要么你现在离开,要么我叫警察。
【参考译文】我们更倾向于将情商描述为一套要么用于好的目的要么用于坏目的的特定的技能。
The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims.
1). while用来引导一个对比状语从句,用以比较或对比两个事实,表示两者的不同。意为“而,然而”,相当于whereas。
E.g. The first two services are free, while the third costs 35.00. 前两项服务免费,但
是第三项服务要花35英镑。
2). 主句中the ability是主语,to accurately understand how others are feeling 是定语,修饰ability,其中how others are feeling是动词understand后面的宾语从句;may be used是谓语,to find how best to help her patients是目的状语。
【参考译文】准确理解他人感受的能力可能被医生用来发现如何最好地帮助病人,而骗子可能会用它来控制潜在的受害者。
Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
1). Being emotionally intelligent是动名词形式,在句中作主语。动名词、动词不定式或从句作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。
E.g. Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. 做一名翻页员需要足够的练习。
Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatles' song "The Long and Winding Road". 去黄山让我想起了流行的披头士乐队歌曲《蜿蜒长路》。
When and where to go for the on-salary holiday has not been decided. 什么时候、到什么地方去度带薪假期还没有被决定。
2). a moral person是名词短语做宾语补足语
“make + 名词 + 名词(形容词,过去分词)”结构意为“使......成......”,其中“名词(形容词,过去分词)”做补足语。
E.g. He was recently made a full-time teacher. 他最近成了一名全职教师。
His kind words really made me happy. 他体贴的话真的让我开心。
It is difficult to make myself understood in English. 要用英语把我自己表达清楚很难。
【参考译文】情商高未必能使一个人成为有道德的人。
It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives.
. 本句中的It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面that引导的主语从句。
英语中,当动词不定式或that从句充当主语时,根据“尾重”原则,常常把它们放在句子尾部,用it做形式主语(或先行主语)。
在“It is one’s hope that...”结构中,it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面that引导主
语从句。
E.g. It is my hope that I can visit China again in the near future. 我希望不久的将来能再次访问中国。
It is our hope that we can live in a peaceful world. 我们希望能生活在一个和平的世界。
2). in coming decades意为“在未来几十年里”,coming是现在分词做定语,修饰decades。也可以用动词不定式形式表达:in the decades to come
E.g. All of them are getting ready for the coming test now.(=All of them are getting ready for the test to come now.) 现在他们都在为即将到来的测试做准备
3). from which to study how people manage their lives相当于定语从句from which people can study how people manage their lives。“介词+关系代词+不定式”结构可转换为“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句。
E.g. The farmers use wood to build a house with which to store grains all
the year round. (=The farmers use wood to build a house with which they can store grains all the year round.) 农民们用木材建房子来全年储存谷物。
Frank’s dream was to have his own shop in which to produce the
workings of his own hands. (=Frank’s dream was to have his own shop in
which he could produce the workings of his own hands.) Frank的梦想是拥有他自己的按他自己的方式生产的门店。
【参考译文】我们希望在未来几十年内,科学的进步将为研究人们如何管理自己的生活提供的新的视角。

一、真题再现
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
32. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
33. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
34. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.

一、真题再现
My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. 36 So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn’t entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. 37 Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes,” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. 38 French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
39 On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency (效率). You can tell this by cafés life. French cafés are always crowded. 40 When do these people work The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously --- so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
A. Not all the customers are tourists.
B. The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C. There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D. The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E. That’s not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F. Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G. The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy.
(2021年全国新高考I卷七选五)
二、语篇导读:本文的语篇类型是记叙文,主题语境为人与社会。主要介绍了一对夫妻在巴黎花了一周时间,体验了当地生活的经过。
三、重点单词(词性转换词、熟词生意词、超纲词)和短语
1. fantastically adv. 难以置信地
fantastical adj. 难以置信的,异想天开的(相当于fantastic)
sixth-floor adj. 六层的(合成词)
hallway n. 走廊,过道; 门厅(合成词)

on/at call 随叫随到的,随时待命的
equally adv. 相等地,同样地
equal adj. 同样的,相等的
in some way 以某种方式,在某种程度上
四、关键结构和长难句
1. So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard.
. rent为省去了to的动词不定式形式。在主语部分含有动词do时,充当表语的动词不定式往往省略动词不定式符号to。
E.g. The only thing to do now is go on. 现在唯一能做的事就是继续前进。
The best thing you can do now is write her an apology. 你现在能做的最恰当的事,
就是给她写一份道歉。
All you do now is complete the form. 你现在要做的只是把表填好。
What I did was learn the language. 我所做的事就是学习语言。
2). the size of a cupboard为brains的后置定语,等于that was about the size of a cupboard。
E.g. These animals have brains the size of a football. = These animals have brains
that are (about) the size of a football. 这些动物有足球场那么大的大脑。
【参考译文】所以我们做的第一件事就是租了一间贵得难以置信的、位于六楼的、只有橱柜那么大的公寓。
That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.
1). 句中的I mastered是定语从句,省略了关系代词that。当先行词前only,all,any,few,little,no,one of等修饰语时,关系词通常用that或省略作宾语的that。
E.g. That’s not the only reason the French eat less than we do. 那不是法国人吃的比
我们少的唯一的原因。
The only thing that impresses me is her directness. 唯一给我留下深刻印象的是
她的直接。
. “It’s a shame(that)... ”结构,意为“很遗憾......”。It是形式主语(或先行主语),正真的主语是后面that引导的主语从句,that有时会省略。类似的句型还有It’s a pity (that)...,It’s a surprise (that)...等。
E.g. It’s a shame (that) she can’t understand English. 很遗憾她不懂英语。
It is a shame that so many people hate her. 很遗憾如此多的人讨厌她。
【参考译文】这是我掌握的唯一的法语短语,很遗憾我不怎么使用它。
As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight.
as是关系代词,引导一个非限制性定语从句,代表they eat great food and never gain weight整个主句。当as用作关系代词,引导非限制性定语从句时,它代表的一般不是某个具体的名词或代词,而是代表整个主句或主句的一部分。这时从句可放在主句之前,也可放在主句之后,甚至可以插入主句中间。
E.g. As I explained on the phone, your request will be considered at the next meeting. 正如我在电话里所解释的那样,在下次会上将考虑你的请求。
There is no simple answer, as is often the case in science. 没有简单的答案,
这在科学上是经常的事。
The air quality in the city, as is shown in the report, has improved over the
past two months. 就像报告中显示的那样,城市里的空气质量在过去的令个月里已经改善
了。
但是,当as引导的非限制性定语从句位于具有否定有意义的主句之后或插入中间时,as从句所修饰的内容不包括否定意义。
E.g. Greenland was not a continent,as people thought. 格陵兰并不像人们所想象的那样是一个大陆。
The facts of science are not, as some think, dry and lifeless. 科学事实并不像有些人所想的那样枯燥无味和没有生命力。
【参考译文】正如几周前有人在这篇文章中指出的那样,他们吃美食,而且从不发胖。
My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten.
句中we had ever eaten是一个定语从句,fruit是先行词,省略了关系代词that。当先行词有最高级形容词或序数词以及last, next, only等修饰时,关系代词大都用that。
E.g. This is the best film that has been shown this year. 这是今年上映过的最好的电影。
【参考译文】我丈夫和我都认为这是我们吃过的最好的水果。
The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously --- so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
1). limiting...是现在分词短语做后置定语,修饰前面的名词deal。
E.g. On receiving a phone call from his wife saying she had a fall, Mr Gordon immediately rushed home from office. 一接到妻子说她摔倒的的电话,Gordon先生就立刻从办公室赶回了家。
2). that independent contractors can be on call是定语从句,先行词是hours。that用作关系关系副词,代替when,可以省略。
E.g. That was the year (that) I first went abroad. 那是我第一次出国的那一年。
I’ll never forget the day (that) we first met. 我永运忘不了我们第一次见面的那一天。
【参考译文】法国人非常重视每周35小时的工时,以至于一些工会最近与一批公司达成协议,限制独立承包商随叫随到的时间。

案,这在科学上是经常的事。
The air quality in the city, ______________________, has improved over
the past two months. 就像报告中显示的那样,城市里的空气质量在过去的令个月里已经
改善了。
但是,当as引导的非限制性定语从句位于具有否定有意义的主句之后或插入中间时,as从句所修饰的内容不包括否定意义。
E.g. Greenland was not a continent,__________________. 格陵兰并不像人们所想象的那样是一个大陆。
The facts of science are not, ___________________, dry and lifeless. 科学事实并不像有些人所想的那样枯燥无味和没有生命力。
【翻译】正如几周前有人在这篇文章中指出的那样,他们吃美食,而且从不发胖。

【翻译】我丈夫和我都认为这是我们吃过的最好的水果。
The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously --- so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.

E.g. On receiving a phone call from his wife __________she had a fall, Mr Gordon immediately rushed home from office. 一接到妻子说她摔倒的的电话,Gordon先生就立刻从办公室赶回了家。

一、真题再现
When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl (水禽) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsman. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat (栖息地).
In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act (Act), an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory (迁徙的) waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. “Ding” Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, lowa, who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System --- a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934, better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.

C. The hunters have stopped hunting. D. The government has collected money.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text

【参考译文】当探险家们第一次踏上北美洲大陆的时候,因为有各种各样的野生动物
天空和大地上充满了生机。
Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources.
句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是to decimate a large part of these resources;take表示“花费、占用(时间、钱、精力等)”;the explorers and the settlers who followed是间接宾语,only a few decades是直接宾语。可改为:Unfortunately, it took only a few decades for the explorers and the settlers who followed to decimate a large part of these resources.或Unfortunately, the explorers and the settlers who followed took only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources.
在“It takes/took sb/sth ... + 动词不定式”结构中,It是形式主语,真正的主语是后
面的动词不定式。可改为“It takes/took ... for sb/sth +动词不定式”结构或“sb/sth takes/took ... + 动词不定式”结构。
E.g. It took about a dozen students almost five hours to write down the names of 1,622 US soldiers who have died in Iraq. 十几位学生花了近五个钟头,才把1622名死在伊拉克的美国军人的名字写下来。(=It took almost five hours for about a dozen students to write down the names of 1,622 US soldiers who have died in Iraq.或About a dozen students took almost five hours to write down the names of 1,622 US soldiers who have died in Iraq.)

. to feed and house the ever-increasing populations是动词不定式做状语,表目的。
. greatly reducing waterfowl habitat是一个现在分词短语做状语,表示结果,其逻辑主语是前面Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations这件事。相当于一个which引导的非限制性定语从句:which greatly reduced ...。
E.g. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine
their relationship to single-use plastic products. 他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑,迫使观
众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系。(= He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, which forced viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.)

E.g. The very first thing you must do is ring the police. 你必须做的第一件事就是给警察打电话。
They arrived only at the very last moment. 他们在最后一刻才到。
2). a political cartoonist from Des Moines, lowa是 J.N. “Ding” Darling的同位语,起具体说明的作用。

【参考译文】每枚鸭票中约98美分直接进入候鸟保护基金会,用于购买湿地和野生动物栖息地,纳入国家野生动物庇护系统——这样确保了这片土地得到保护,并对未来所有的后代共同有所帮助。
Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.
1). Little wonder... 是It’s little wonder that...的省略。It’s no (little,small) wonder(that)... 意为“......并不奇怪”,“......不足为怪”
E.g. It’s no wonder (that) he failed the exam; he didn’t study at all. 他考不及格不奇怪,他根本就没学。
No wonder (that) you turned down the offer. The conditions were no good. 难怪你拒绝了那个工作机会。条件一点也不好。

一、真题再现
By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova --- not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr. Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr. Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and required up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practice with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr. Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Mr. Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner
A. Read music. B. Play the piano.
C. Sing songs. D. Fix the instruments.
25. Which of the following best describes Titterton’s job on stage
A. Boring. B. Well-paid. C. Demanding. D. Dangerous.
26. What does Titterton need to practice
A. Counting the pages. B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Catching falling objects. D. Performing in his own style.
27. Why is Ms. Raspopova’s husband “the worse page turner”
A. He has very poor eyesight. B. He ignores the audience.
C. He has no interest in music. D. He forgets to do his job.

四、关键结构和长难句
1. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova --- not as a musician but as her page turner.
1).though用作副词,意为“不过,可是,然而”,置于句末或插入句中。
E.g. The place wasn’t entirely authentic, though. 不过,这个地方不完全是地道正宗的。
Not so smoothly as I hoped, though. 不过,没有我希望的那么顺利。
2). not ... but ... 意为“不是......而是......”,用来连接两个并列结构。类似的还有never ... but ...,hardly ... but ...等。
E.g. It is not who you are or what background you have but what you can do
for others that is of great value. 有价值的不是你是谁或有什么背景,而是你能为别人做什么。
He never pushed the hat to one side of his head,but wore it straight. 他从不把帽子戴歪在一边,而总是端端正正的带着。
【参考译文】不过,在业余时间,他与钢琴家玛丽亚·拉斯波波娃一起登上舞台并肩演出—-不是作为音乐家,而是作为她的乐谱翻页者。
2. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves.
1). 整个句子是连词so连接的并列句,so意为“因此,所以,因而”等。
E.g. Everyone in the town knew him, so we had no trouble finding his house. 镇上谁都认识他,所以我们毫不费力就找到了他家。
2). “be to + 动词原形”结构用以表示“计划或安排”,过去时为was/were to do表示过去的“计划、安排”。这是其最常见的用法。
E.g. The Prime Minister is to visit Budapest. 首相将访问布达佩斯。
In a room above the store, where a party was to be held , some workers were busily setting the table 在店铺上面的一个房间里,一些工人正在忙着摆桌子,那里将举行
一场聚会。
be to do结构也可以表示“指示、命令或要求”等,通常可译为“应当”、“必须”
E.g. No one is to leave the building. 谁也不得离开这栋楼房。
It is to be noted that the machine should be maintained regularly. 必须注意,机器应该定期维修。
be to do结构还可以表示“可能”
E.g. Such books are to be found in the library. 这样的书能在图书管理找到。
be to do结构也常用在条件句中
E.g. In such dry weather, the flowers will have to be watered if they are to survive. 在这么干燥的天气里,这些花要想活过来,就得浇水。
be to do结构还可以表示“不可避免”或“注定发生”
E.g. Your plan is to be a failure. 你的计划注定失败。
有专家把be to看成是表“情态”的短语,即“情态习语”或“情态助动词”
【参考译文】他的工作是坐在钢琴家旁边翻阅乐谱,这样音乐家就不必自己动手而破坏音乐的连贯性。
He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
playing instruments on stage是现在分词短语做后置定语,修饰those,其逻辑主语就是those。相当于定语从句who were playing instruments on stage。现在分词形式用作定语时,被修饰词就是其逻辑主语。单个的现在分词作定语时,一般置于所修饰词的前面;现在分词短语作定语时,置于所修饰词之后。
E.g. The sleeping boy must be dreaming for he is smiling.(相当于The boy who is sleeping must be dreaming for he is smiling.) 那个睡觉的男孩一定在做梦,他在笑呢。
This is the path leading to our school.(相当于This is the path which leads to our school.) 这是通往我们学校的那条道。
【参考译文】他说他变得就和舞台上那些演奏乐器的人一样紧张。
You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.
句中and并列了两个make sure,you don’t turn two pages at once是第一个make sure后面的宾语从句,省去了连词that;you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot是第二个make sure后面的宾语从句,也省去了连词that,这个宾语从句中还有一个when引导的时间状语从句。
【参考译文】你得确保不要一次翻两页。当你得回到适当部分的时候,要确保能看到音乐中的反复标记。
Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practice with their page turner.
1). 本句是and连接的并列句。
2). 动词不定式to indicate...作动词nod的目的状语。
E.g. Group activities will be organized after class to help children develop team spirit. 课后组织小组活动唻帮助孩子们培养团队精神。
3). which they need to practice with their page turner是一个定语从句,which代替先行词style(of “nodding” to indicate a page turn)在从句中做practice的宾语。
E.g. I borrow the book Sherlock Holmes from the library last week,which my
classmates recommended to me. 上周我从图书馆借了《福尔摩斯》,这是我的同学推荐给我的。
We'll reach the sales targets in a month which we set at the beginning of the year. 再有一个月就能完成年初制订的销售目标。
【参考译文】台上的无声的交流很关键,每个钢琴家都有自己的“点头”来示意翻页的风格,他们需要和他们的翻页师练习。
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong.
1). when things go wrong是关系副词when引导的定语从句,先行词moments。
2). go wrong意为“出错”,“出问题”。这里go用作表示变化过程结果连系动词,语义为“变为、变成”,与形容词、过去分词连用。大多用于表示不好的事情(即用于贬义):go bad,go mad,go rotten。
E.g. On hearing the news of the accident in the coal mine, she went pale. 一听到煤矿事故的消息,她(脸色)变得苍白。
【参考译文】但向所有的表演一样,也有情况出错的时刻。
Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.
I’ve had in my entire life是定语从句,先行词是turner,在从句中做宾语,省去了关系代词that。当指人的先行词被序数词、最高级以及the only、the very、the same等修饰时,关系代词既可以用who也可以用that,但以that更普遍。
E.g. she is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. 她是我见过的最漂亮的女孩。
【参考译文】罗伯特是我一生中遇到的最棒的翻页师。

一、真题再现
By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova --- not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr. Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr. Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and required up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practice with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr. Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Mr. Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner
A. Read music. B. Play the piano.
C. Sing songs. D. Fix the instruments.
25. Which of the following best describes Titterton’s job on stage
A. Boring. B. Well-paid. C. Demanding. D. Dangerous.
26. What does Titterton need to practice
A. Counting the pages. B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Catching falling objects. D. Performing in his own style.
27. Why is Ms. Raspopova’s husband “the worse page turner”
A. He has very poor eyesight. B. He ignores the audience.
C. He has no interest in music. D. He forgets to do his job.

四、关键结构和长难句
1. And it came to me then how much easier it would be if we had a range of words that express different grades of gratitude.
1). 句中的it是形式主语,正真的主语是后面how much引导的主语从句。
2). (sth.)come to sb.意为“某人突然意识到或记起(某事)
E.g. The solution came to him in a dream. 他在梦中想到了这个解决方案。
I’ve forgotten her name, but maybe it’ll come to me later. 我忘了她的名字,但稍后可能会想起来。
“It comes/came to sb + 主语从句”结构,表示“某人想起......”
E.g. It comes to me that he was my colleague before. 我想起来了,他以前是我同事。
It suddenly came back to me where I had seen the boy before. 我猛然间想起了以前曾在什么地方见到这男孩。
Then it came to me that I must dream the instrument of his death. 于是我想到
肯定梦见了他死亡的器具。
3).在how much easier it would be if we had a range of words中主句和从句都用了虚拟语气的形式,而且都表示与现在(当时的事实或长久的事实相反。这时,非真实条件句中动词用过去时;主句中动词用would/should + 动词原形。
E.g. If light could of itself pass round an object, there would be no shadows. 如果光线能够自行绕过物体,那就不会有影子了。
If transparent bodies did not reflect a certain amount of light, they would be invisible. 如果透明体不反射一定量的光,那么透明体就是看不见的。
4).that express different grades of gratitude是一个定语从句,that代替先行词words,在从句中做主语。
【参考译文】然后我想到,如果我们有一系列表达不同程度感激之情的词,那会多么容易啊。
One afternoon, while attempting to get into bed she collapsed from what was
eventually discovered to be a heart attack.
1). 当状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致时, 可以将从句主语和be 动词简化掉。
E.g. ... and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions. ...... 然而,一个共同工作的空间或咖啡馆在提供一定程度的噪音的过程中,也提供了免受干扰的自由。(= ... while it is also providing freedom ... )
I was considering this while working as a nurse just a few weeks ago. 就在几个星期前,我当护士的时候,我一直在考虑这个问题。(=I was considering this while I was working as ... )
When completed , the museum will be open to the public next year. 竣工后,博)物馆将于明年对公众开放。(=When it is completed , ... )
. what was eventually discovered to be a heart attack是介词from后面的宾语从句,
what在从句中作主语。
E.g. A modern city has been set up in what was a wasteland ten years ago. 一个现代化城市在十年前是荒地的地方建成了。
【参考译文】一天下午,当她试图上床睡觉时,晕倒了,原因最终被诊断为心脏病发作。
But she recovered, though slowly, and was ready for discharge (出院) after four weeks.
though slowly是状语从句though she recovered slowly省略了重复的she recovered。
【参考译文】但是她恢复了,尽管恢复得慢,并且准备四周后出院。
She was grateful for everything that the medical and nursing team had done for her.
句中that the medical and nursing team had done for he是定语从句,先行词是everything。当先行词是all, anything, something, everything, nothing, little, much, none, one时,人们大都喜欢使用that或省略充当宾语的that(即零关系代词)。
E.g. Finally, the thief handed everything that he had stolen to the police. 最后,小偷把他偷的所有的东西都交给了警察。
She has everything (that) a woman could wish for. 她拥有女人想获得的一切。
【参考译文】她很感激医疗和护理小组为她所做的一切。
As she was leaving she was eager to say goodbye to each of us in the nursing team.
1). As she was leaving 是一个由从属连词as引导的时间状语从句。
2).句中was leaving 是过去进行时形式表示过去将来。英语中,某些动词,尤其是表示移动的动词,如come, go, leave, start等,过去进行时可以表示过去将来(即从过去某个时间角度来看将要进行的动作)。
E.g. The manager was concerned to hear that two of his trusted workers were leaving. 听到自己最信任的两个职员要离去,经理很关注。
James has just arrived, but I didn't know he was coming until yesterday.詹姆斯刚到,但直到昨天我才知道他要来。
【参考译文】当她要离开的时候,她急切地想和我们护理小组的每个人说再见。
My colleague refused to accept it, saying that we were all just doing our job.
句中的saying that we were all just doing our job是现在分词短语作状语,表伴随情况,其逻辑主语就是句子的主语my colleague。
E.g. Tony lent me the money, hoping that I’d do as much for him. Tony借给我了钱,希望我加倍还他。
Do you wake up every morning feeling energetic and ready to start a new day 句意是:你每天早晨醒来,精力充沛并且准备好开始新的一天吗。。

一、真题再现
During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction(干扰) in his open office, he said, “That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street —so I can focus. "His comment struck me as strange. After all, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout (布局). But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.
The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels(分贝), 70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop-significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.
But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise—not too loud and not total silence—may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus. This kind of "distracted focus" appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.
So why do so many of us hate our open offices The problem may be that, in our offices, we can't stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus. Indeed, the researchers found that face-to-face interactions and conversations affect the creative process, and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.
32. Why does the interviewer prefer a coworking space
A. It helps him concentrate.
B. It blocks out background noise.
C. It has a pleasant atmosphere.
D. It encourages face-to-face interactions.
33. Which level of background noise may promote creative thinking ability
A. Total silence.
B. 50 decibels.
C. 70 decibels.
D. 85 decibels.
34. What makes an open office unwelcome to many people
A. Personal privacy unprotected.
B. Limited working space.
C. Restrictions on group discussion.
D. Constant interruptions.
35.What can we infer about the author from the text
A. He's a news reporter.
B. He’s an office manager.
C. He's a professional designer.
D. He's a published writer.

四、关键结构和长难句
1. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop-significantly outperformed the other groups .
1).those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop是同位语,对the participants进行补充说明。
2).exposed to a level of noise... 是过去分词短语形式做后置定语,修饰those。相当于定语从句:who were exposed to a level of noise...
3).similar to ... 是形容词短语做后置定语,修饰noise。相当于定语从句:which was similar to ...
【参考译文】大多数组之间的差异在统计学上是无关紧要的;然而,70分贝组的参与者——那些处于类似于咖啡店里喋喋不休闲聊的背景噪音水平的噪音中的参与者——表现明显优于其他组。
But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise—not too loud and not total silence—may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability.
1).since引导的是一个原因状语从句。意为“因为”,“既然”。
E.g. Mark needs to learn Chinese since his company is opening a branch in Beijing. Mark需要学习汉语是因为他的公司要在北京开分公司。
Why not buy a cheaper one, since you don’t have enough money 既然你没有足够的钱,为什么不买个便宜的?
2).suggest意为“表明”,“显示”。后面接的是一个that引导的宾语从句。
3).not too loud and not total silence中的第二个not不能省略,省略时须把and换成or。
E.g. They have no books and no magazines for sale. 他们既没有书可卖,也没有杂志可卖。(=they have no books or magazines for sale.)
【参考译文】但因为70 分贝的结果是显著的,研究还表明,适当的背景噪音—— 既不要太大,也不要完全沉默—— 实际上可以提高一个人的创造性思维能力。
The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus.
1). to allow ... 是动词不定式短做语副词enough的补足语。
enough用作副词来修饰动词、形容词、副词时,后面常接一个动词不定式做补足语。即
“enough + 动词不定式”结构:
E.g. She lived long enough to realize all her dreams. 她活得很久,足以实现她所有的梦想。
She was not old enough to drive a car. 那时她很小,还不能开车。

一、真题再现
During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction(干扰) in his open office, he said, “That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street —so I can focus. "His comment struck me as strange. After all, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout (布局). But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.
The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels(分贝), 70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop-significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.
But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise—not too loud and not total silence—may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus. This kind of "distracted focus" appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.
So why do so many of us hate our open offices The problem may be that, in our offices, we can't stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus. Indeed, the researchers found that face-to-face interactions and conversations affect the creative process, and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.
32. Why does the interviewer prefer a coworking space
A. It helps him concentrate.
B. It blocks out background noise.
C. It has a pleasant atmosphere.
D. It encourages face-to-face interactions.
33. Which level of background noise may promote creative thinking ability
A. Total silence.
B. 50 decibels.
C. 70 decibels.
D. 85 decibels.
34. What makes an open office unwelcome to many people
A. Personal privacy unprotected.
B. Limited working space.
C. Restrictions on group discussion.
D. Constant interruptions.
35.What can we infer about the author from the text
A. He's a news reporter.
B. He’s an office manager.
C. He's a professional designer.
D. He's a published writer.

一、真题再现
When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline (座机)
These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.
Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones, according to a survey (调查).Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket - 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor (因素)-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who've perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attached are you to your landline How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones
A. Their target users. B. Their wide popularity.
C. Their major functions. D. Their complex design.
25. What does the underlined word "concede" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Admit. B. Argue. C. Remember. D. Remark.
26. What can we say about Baby Boomers
A. They like smartphone games. B. They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.
C. They keep using landline phones. D. They are attached to their family.
27. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph
A. It remains a family necessity. B. It will fall out of use some day.
C. It may increase daily expenses. D. It is as important as the gas light.
(2021年全国乙卷阅读理解B篇)

四、关键结构和长难句
1. When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline (座机) .
1).本句中的when意为“既然、尽管、虽然”,不表示单纯的时间意义;主从句之间没有时间关系,只有意义上的对比关系,而且是彼此相反的强烈对比。
E.g. Why do I have to swithch on the light, when you are much closer to it 既然你离灯那么近,为什么非要让我过去开灯?
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about. 我们待人处事,往往以舒适豪华为人生的主要要求,而其实唯一使我们过得真正幸福的,就是要有所热情关注。
How can I ever get a job in America when I can’t even speak English 我连英语都不会说,又怎么能够在美国找到工作呢?
How silly we are to sit around inside when outside it is so lovely. 外面这么好,咱们呆在室内多么笨。
2).half of + 名词(或代词)充当主语时,其谓语动词的数与half本身无关,而决定于half of之后的名词(或代词)的数。名词为单数,谓语动词用单数;名词为复数,谓语动词用复数。
E.g. Half of the land is cultivated. 这些土地的一半已耕种。
Half of the books have been placed on the shelves. 这些书有一半已放在书架上了。
【参考译文】既然几乎每个人都有手机,为什么超过一半的澳大利亚家庭还在为固定电话付费?
2. These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone.
1).be hard pressed to do sth. 意为“很难做某事”,相当于have difficulty (in) doing sth.。
E.g. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone better for the job.(=You’d have difficulty (in) finding anyone better for the job.) 找一个更好的人来做这一工作很难。
This year the airlines will be hard pressed to make a profit. 今年各航空公司将难以盈利。
Although her husband has promised again and again to be faithful to her, Mary is
still hard pressed to let her defenses down.(= ... Mary still has difficulty (in) letting her defenses down.) 尽管她的丈夫再三承诺会对她忠诚,玛丽还是很难放下戒备心理。
2). who doesn’t own a mobile phone是一个定语从句,关系代词who指代先行词anyone,并在从句中做主语。在通常情况下,用作主语的that远没有who那么常用,但是, 在形容词最高级之后以及all, nobody, no one, somebody, someone, anybody等和those之后也可以用that作关系代词。
E.g. He was the best king who/that ever sat on the throne. 他是这个王朝建立以来最贤明的君主。
All who/that heard him were delighted. 所有听了他讲话的人都很高兴。
Happiness and success often come to those who are good at recognizing their own
strengths. 幸福和成功总青睐能善于意识到自己长处的人们。
【参考译文】现如今,你很难在澳大利亚找到一个15岁以上没有手机的人。
3. Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket - 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies.
1). Of those Australians who still have a landline部分为了强调,被放到了句首。原来的语序是:A third of those Australians who still have a landline concede that ... 。主语是those Australians,谓语动词是concede;who still have a landline是定语从句,关系代词who指代先行词those Australians, 在从句中做主语;concede后面接了两个宾语从句,由and并列;破折号后while引导一个对比状语从句。
2). Of those Australians who still have a landline本来在a third和19 percent后面,为了强调被放到了句首。表示分数、百分数的的短语作主语时,谓语动词的单复数形式和分数后面的名词(或代词)一致。
E.g. Two thirds of the apples were bad. 三分之二的苹果坏了。
Approximately three-fourths of the earth’s surface is covered with water。 大约四分之三的地球表面被水所覆盖。
One-third of the country is covered with trees and the majority of the citizens are black people. 这个国家的三分之一覆盖着森林,并且大多数公民是黑人。
As a result of the serious flood, two-thirds of the buildings in the area need repairing. 由于洪水爆发,这个地区三分之二的建筑需要修复。
The company had about 20 notebook computers but only one-third were used regularly. Now we have 60 working all day long. 公司有将近20台笔记本电脑,但是只有三分之一被经常使用。现在我们每天有60台都在全天候的使用着。
Two fifths of the land in that district is covered with trees and grass. 那个地区五分之二的土地被树木和草覆盖着。
3). while引导对比状语从句,用以比较或对比两个事实,表示两者的不同。意为“而,然而”,相当于whereas。
E.g. Fred gambled his money away while Julia spent hers all on dresses and bric-a-brac. 弗雷德把自己的钱赌博赌掉,而朱丽亚则把钱花在衣服和摆设上。
Geographically, the UK is on the periphery of Europe, while Paris is at the heart of the continent. 从地理上来说,英国位于欧洲的边沿,而巴黎则是在大陆的中心。
【参考译文】在那些仍然拥有固定电话的澳大利亚人中,三分之一承认这是不是真的有必要,他们把它当作安慰物——19% 的人说他们从不使用它,而另外 13% 的人会保留它以防万一。
Age isn't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.
1). I’d是I would的缩写形式。这里助动词would用来表示委婉语气,不把话说死。
E.g. I’d say it’s too late. 看来为时已晚。
I’d have to sit down and think. 我需要坐下来想一想。
2). be to do with ... 意为“与......有关”,“与......有联系”。
E.g. It may be to do with history. 这也许与历史有关。
Talent isn’t the only factor; it is also to do with diligence. 天赋是一方面,它还与后天的勤奋有关。
【参考译文】年龄不是唯一的因素;我想说这也与你家的构成有关。
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member.
1). 句中的it用作形式宾语(或称先行宾语),正真的宾语是to have a home phone。即“find + it + adj. + to do sth”.结构
E.g. Haywood found it difficult to explain his beliefs to Philip. 海伍德觉得难于向菲利普解释他的信念。
Sometimes he found it very hard to like Fellowes. 有时他觉得很难喜欢费洛斯。
She soon found it possible to do this regularly. 她很快发现有可能经常感这种事。
2). 本句中的rather than用作介词,意为“而不是”,相当于instead of。
E.g. We ought to cheek up, rather than just accepting what he says. 我们应该检查一下,而不是只接受他所说的话。
Their actions precipitated the war rather than averting it. 他们的行动不是阻止战争而是加速战争。
【参考译文】有年轻家庭的X一代,比如我和我的妻子,还是会发现有一部家用电话比为每个家庭成员提供一部手机更方便。
That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
1). to be honest意为“诚实地说”、“老实说”,一般放在句首或用作插入语,独立使用。用来表示说话人对说话内容所持的态度,即对句子内容的评论。可成为“评论性动词不定式”(也有专家学者把这种不定式称为“独立不定式”)。类似的还有:to begin/start with(首先),to conclude(最后),to tell the truth(说实话),to be fair(公平而论),to put it mildly(说得委婉些),to be precise(准确地说),to be truthful(诚实地说),to be frank with you(坦白地对你说),to speak candidly(坦率地说),to put it briefly(简而言之)。
E.g. We can’t go. To begin with, it’s too cold. Besides, we’ve no money. 我们不能走。首先,天气太冷。另外,我们也没钱。
To tell he truth, I was not sorry to be rid of him. 说实话,离开他,我并不难过。
To put it mildly, she’s just a bit inquisitive. 说得委婉些,她只是爱管闲事。
To be frank with you, I like you, and should be glad to give you any help I can. 坦白地对你说,我喜欢你,很高兴给你我所能给的一切帮助。
2). who ever ring our home phone是定语从句,关系代词who指代先行词people,并在从句中做主语。

stage,position,job,activity,family,race,environment,letter,work,topic等名词。

一、真题再现
When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline (座机)
These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.
Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones, according to a survey (调查).Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket - 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor (因素)-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who've perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attached are you to your landline How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones
A. Their target users. B. Their wide popularity.
C. Their major functions. D. Their complex design.
25. What does the underlined word "concede" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Admit. B. Argue. C. Remember. D. Remark.
26. What can we say about Baby Boomers
A. They like smartphone games. B. They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.
C. They keep using landline phones. D. They are attached to their family.
27. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph
A. It remains a family necessity. B. It will fall out of use some day.
C. It may increase daily expenses. D. It is as important as the gas light.

(2021年全国新高考I卷阅读理解A篇)

staff members 职工(合成词)

hold plenty of events 举行大量的活动
plenty of 大量的,充足的(后接可数名词或不可数名词,动词与此名词的数保持一致;
通常用于肯定句,否定句和疑问句中使用enough, much或 many)
shot (c)n. 少量饮料,(尤指)少量烈酒(熟词生义)

inconvenient adj. 不方便的(in-表示“无”、“不”、“非”)
convenient adj. 便利的,近便的
四、关键结构和长难句
1. Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel.
1). 情态动词can表示“(理论上、经验上)(有时)可能会......”,“有时会......”
E.g. Peter can come with us together, but he isn’t very sure yet. 彼得今晚可能同我们一起去,但他还不能肯定。
2). which引导非限制性定语从句,指前面Rome can be pricey for travelers这件事,相当于and that。
E.g. He changed his mind, which made me very angry. 他改变了注意,这让我很生气。(=He changed his mind, and that made ... )
【参考译文】对于旅行者来说,罗马可能花费高,这是许多人选择住旅社的原因。
2. ... and for that, you’ll often get to stay in a central location (位置) with security and comfort.
stay是个静态动词, 既没有动作的起点,也没有动作的终点。要想表达动作的起点,怎么办呢?只要加上get to就行了。get to stay使stay这个静态动词有了动态的含义。即:“get to + 静态动词(如know, understand, be, love, like, live等)”结构。现代语言学家把get to看作是“半助动词”。
E.g. Over the next few days they got to know the town well. 在随后的几天里他们就熟悉了这个城市。
I shall get to like them in time, I suppose. 我想到时候我会喜欢上他们的。
I’ll never get to understand him. 我永远也不会理解他。
同样用法的还有come to。即:“come to + 静态动词”
E.g. How did you come to know him 你是怎么认识(上)他的呢?
I hope we shall be friends and come to understand one other. 我希望我们将成为朋友,能够互相理解。
【参考译文】......因此,你会经常有机会安全舒适地呆在(城市的)中心位置。
If I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in Rome, it would be Yellow Hostel.
1). 本句的主句和从句谓语动词都用了虚拟语气的形式,表示说话人把动词所表达的行为或状态看作只是存在于说话人想象中的“假想”,而不看作是客观现实。本句的主句和从句都是表示对现在时间的虚拟,这时虚拟条件句中动词用过去时(be动词用were),主句中动词用would/should + 动词原形。
E.g. If he had any money, he’d leave home. 他要是有钱,他就离开家了。
If I were you, I’d start parking now. 我要是你,我现在就动手收拾行装了。
表示非真实条件有多种语言方式,用if条件句表示是最普通的形式。
2). where to stay in Rome相当于宾语从句where you should stay in Rome。
“疑问词 + 动词不定式”结构: 在英语中,疑问词(疑问代词what、which、who、whom等,疑问副词where、when、how等) + 动词不定式构成不定式短语,在句中可做主语、宾语、标语等,相当于一个名词性从句。
E.g. We must first solve the problem of whom to serve.(=We must first solve the problem of whom we should serve.) 我们必须首先解决为谁服务的问题。
She didn’t know which bus to take.(=she didn’t know which bus she should take.) 她不知道乘哪路车。
When and where to have the party is not known.(=When and where we should have the party is not known.) 何时何地举行聚会还不知道。
The difficulty is how to do the most of the work with the least of money.(=The difficulty is how we should do the most of the work with the least money.) 困难时如何尽量少用钱多办事。
【参考译文】在罗马住哪里,我要是只做一种推荐,那就是Yellow Hostel。
If you’re looking for cleanliness and a modern hostel, look no further than Youth Station.
look no further than ... 表示“只需看看…就可以了”
“no further than ... ”表示“和......一样近”,意在言其近。
在“no +形容词(或副词)比较级+than”的结构中,其意义和口气在于强调该形容词或副词的反面性质,是一种形式上表示比较、意义上表示等同的形容词或副词短语。
E.g. He had travelled no further than seven miles across the Channel when his engine failed. 他在英吉利海峡上空刚刚飞行了七英里,他的发动机就出故障了。
They now have no more than 500 students in the attached middle school. 现在他们附中的学生仅有500人。
He is no better at golf than swimming. 他打高尔夫跟游泳一样差劲。
No fewer than 50 people competed. 参加竞赛的有50人之多
No less than fifty people were killed in the accident. 在这次事故中死亡者多达50人。
Now many neckties are no wider than a piece of string. 现在许多领带窄得像条绳子。
【参考译文】如果你在找干净、现代的旅社,只需看看Youth Station就可以了。
The staff is friendly and helpful, providing you with a map of the city when you arrive, and offering advice if you require some.
providing..., and offering是两个并列的现在分词短语做状语,表示方式,他们的逻辑主语就是the staff。当分词作状语时,它的逻辑主语就是句子的主语。由此来决定分词的形式:当句子主语从语义上看是分词所表达的动作的发出者(施动者)时,应使用现在分词;当句子主语是分词说表达的动作的对象(受动者)时,应使用过去分词。
E.g. Having no money, we couldn’t get in. 由于没有钱,我们不能进去。
She enters, accompanied by her mother. 她由妈妈陪伴著走了进去。
【参考译文】员工们友好又乐于助人,你到的时候会提供一张城市地图,有需要的话会提供建议。

四、关键结构和长难句
1. ..., it's not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.
句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to make ...。
在“It is/was + 形容词 + 动词不定式”结构中:it是形式主语(或先行主语);真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语,有时是一个从句。
E.g. You can’t help wondering how hard it was for the people then to put all those rocks into place. 你禁不住要问,当时的人们要把这些石头摆放如此有序该有多难
It is compulsory to wear a safety belt. 必须系好安全带。
It was obvious that the driver could not control his car. 显然这位司机不能驾车了。
【参考译文】......,让你在晚宴聚会上有趣并不难。
So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.
1).“be to + 动词原形”结构。表示“计划或安排”、“指示、命令或要求”,也可表示“可能”以及“不可避免”或“注定发生”等。
E.g. Their daughter is to be married soon. 他们的女儿很快就要结婚了。
The clergy were to receive salaries from the state. 牧师从国家领取工资。
I was to have seen him last Wednesday but he did not come. 我本应当上周三就见到他,但是他没来。
2).trying different foods and talking是两个现在分词短语做状语,表伴随情况,其逻辑主语是前面动词show up and be adventurous的主语。
E.g. There is no greater pleasure than lying on my back in the middle of the grassland, staring at the night sky. 没有比背躺在草地中间,盯着夜空更快乐的事情了。
【参考译文】主要的事就是冒险出现,尝试不同的食物,和陌生人交谈。
If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living ", you'll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you're talking to.
1). other than一般前面都有否定词,意为“除了......之外再无其他”。
E.g. She never discussed it with anyone other than John. 她除了约翰之外,跟谁都没讨论过这事。
They did it for no other reason than sheer frustration. 他们这么做除了处于纯粹的挫折感之外,没有任何别的原因。
其实other than本身就有否定的意思。有时可以它可以放在两个名词成分之间 ,表示前面一个在当前情况下不包括后面一个。
E.g. languages other than English. 非英语的语言
Singapore is now emphasizing factors other than raw testing skills when selecting its top students. 新加坡现在挑选尖子生时,所强调的因素已经不是光秃秃的考试技能了。
There are other ways to insult the reader’s intelligence than by forcing second-grade arithmetic on his attention. 即使要骂读者是蠢才,也可以有别的办法,不必强迫他把注意力放在一些二年级的算术题上。
2).whomever引导的是一个宾语从句,在从句中做talk to的宾语。
E.g. And the one who bought it went plowing and found the treasure. He began to lend
money at interest to whomever he wished. 而买的人开始耕耘田园,因而发现宝藏,他就利用这笔钱随意借贷给人,赚取利息。
From my heart I said I have no problem at all and I would give my utmost support
to whomever in charge. 我发自内心的说:没问题,怎么决定我都会全力支持新的负责
As she grew stronger and brighter, she instilled a sort of light and cheer to
whomever she met. 随着她日渐强壮和聪明,她带给每个她遇见的人一种光亮和愉快的心情。
【参考译文】如果你能以一个问题开始交谈,而不是问“ 你是做什么工作的?” ,你就能从和你谈话的任何人那里得到有趣得多的谈话。
And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence
What about ... 通常用于提出建议,可译为“......怎么样”,与How about ... 可以互用。
E.g. What about(How about)spending the night here 在这里过夜怎么样?
但是what about还可以用来提出一个与当前有关的新问题(用以提及自己感兴趣或需要考虑的其他人或事物)。
E.g. What about the others 其他人怎么办?
What about Patrick What’s he doing nowadays 帕特里克怎么样?现在他在干什么呢?。
【参考译文】而且另一种晚会杀手:尴尬的沉默,怎么办?。
If you're faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment.
1). 本句中that always gets everyone talking again是一个定语从句,关系代词that代替先行词thing在从句中做主语。这时,从句中的谓语动词需与先行词保持一致
E.g. The teacher together with the students is discussing Reading Skills that was newly published in America. 老师和学生在讨论最近美国出版的“Reading Skills”。
Barbara is easy to recognize as she’s the only one of the women who wears evening dress. Barbara是容易被认出来的,因为她是那些女人中唯一穿晚礼服的。
2). 当先行词被only,all,any,few,little,no,one of等修饰时,人们通常喜欢用that(做宾语时通常省略)。
E.g. The only thing that impresses me is her directness. 唯一给我留下深刻印象的就是她的直率。
That is the only French phrase I mastered. 那是我掌握的唯一的法语短语
3). “get + 宾语 + 现在分词”结构,表示“使某人做某事”。
E.g. We’ll get the TV working again. 我们会把电视修好的。
Try to get the car going. 想办法把车开动起来。
【参考译文】如果你在晚宴上面临尴尬沉默,通常能让每个人再次交谈起来的事就是赞美主办人。
So being interesting at a dinner party isn’t that hard.
Being interesting at a dinner party是动名词形式,在句中作主语。这时,谓语动词用单数形式。
E.g. Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. 做一名翻页员需要足够的练习。
Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatles' song "The Long and Winding Road". 去黄山让我想起了流行的披头士乐队歌曲《蜿蜒长路》。
Simply saying thank you doesn’t seem enough in certain situations. 在某些情况下,仅仅说声谢谢似乎是不够的。
【参考译文】所以在晚宴上变得有趣并不是那么难。
Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to say.
1). 关系副词where的先行词也可以是topic,point,case,condition,situation,stage,
position,job,activity,family,race,environment,letter,work等名词,在从句中做状语。
E.g. But I am aware that this is a topic where opinions differ. 但是我意识到这是因为不同地方的人抱有不同的看法。
Politics, like religion, is a topic where there's no threshold of expertise for
expressing an opinion. 政治,犹如信仰,是一个对于陈述观点并没有设置任何专业知识的门槛的一类话题。
2). “have + 名词或代词 + 动词不定式”结构。表示“有......要......”,动词不定式中的的动词和前面的名词或代词之间是动宾关系。这时,动词不定式中的动词必须是及物的或加上介词的。
E.g. He has much work to do. 他有许多工作要做。
Do you have any suggestions to make. 你有什么建议吗?
I have a lot of things to attend to. 他有一大堆事情要处理。
She has several patients to take care of. 她有好几个病人要照顾。
【参考译文】或者把谈话变成他们没什么可说的话题。
【答案】B C F E G

一、真题再现
The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 8 A.Q., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and a comfortable seat-tend to keep stadium capacities(容量)slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang, D.P.R-Korea. Capacity. 150,000. Opened. May 1,1989.
Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened. October 1, 1927.
Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U.S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, I960.
Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U.S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7, 1922.
Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U.S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24,1927.
21.How many people could the Circus Maximus hold
A.104,944. B. 107,601.
C. About 150,000. D. About 250,000.
22.Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest
A. Michigan Stadium. B. Beaver Stadium.
C. Ohio Stadium. D. Kyle Field.
23.What do the listed stadiums have in common
A.They host big games.
B.They have become tourist attractions
C.They were built by Americans.
D.They are favored by architects

语篇导读 本文的语篇类型是应用文,主题语境为人与社会。主要介绍了世界上最大的体育馆----罗马斗兽场,以及其它几座体育馆的相关信息。
重点单词(词性转换词、熟词生意词、超纲词)和短语
pour vi. (人)大量涌入(或涌出),蜂拥(熟词生义)

event n. (体育运动的)比赛项目(熟词生义)
关键结构和长难句
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece.
本句的时态是现在完成进行时,其构成形式是:have/has been doing(即把进行时be doing中的be变成现在完成时行式have been)。现在完成进行时强调动作一直在进行并持续到现在。至于该动作是刚刚停止,还是继续下去,则上下文而定。或表述为:现在完成进行时表示一个从过去开始、现在仍在继续中的动作或刚刚结束的动作。与现在完成时相比,现在完成进行时主要有未完结性、短暂性、刚完结性和连续性或重复性等四个特点。
E.g. My shoe has been pressing against my foot,so it hurts a bit. 我的鞋挤脚,所以脚有点疼。(press的动作完结)
They have been living in New York. 他们一直住在纽约。(与They have lived in New York.相比,更具短暂性)
My hands are very dirty. I’ve been painting the car. 我的手很脏,我油漆汽车来着。(paint的动作刚刚结束)
For years we’ve been demanding better housing and jobs. 多年来,我们一直在要求更好的居住条件和工作。(demand的动作持续不断,而且还要进行下去)
【参考译文】自古希腊时代起,人们就一直不断地涌入体育场馆。
Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people.
1). 表示物体的长、宽、高或重量等常用的句型:“数词+单位量词词+形容词”。也可以用“数词+单位词+介词+名词”来表达。
E.g. The road is 2 kilometres long.(=The road is 2 kilometres in length.) 这条路有2公里长。
The wooden bridge is 20 metres wide.(The wooden bridge is 20 metres in width) 这座木桥有20米宽
2). seating 50,000 people是现在分词短语做状语,表示伴随情况,其逻辑主语是Rome’s Colosseum。seat用作及物动词,意为“容纳,做得下”,相当于accommodate或hold等。
E.g. The sunlight is white and blinding, throwing hard-edged shadows on the ground.阳光炽白炫目,在地上投下浓重的阴影。
【参考译文】罗马斗兽场有157英尺高,有80个入口,可容纳5万人。
However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
pared with the city’s Circus Maximus是过去分词短语形式做状语。compared with/to ... 意为“与......比较起来,较之......”。
E.g. Michael’s new house is like a huge palace, compared with his old one. 和他的旧房子比起来,Michael的新房子就像巨大的宫殿。
Looked at in this way, the situation doesn’t seem so disappointing. 这样看来,情况似乎并不那么令人失望。
2). which accommodated around 250,000 people是一非限制性定语从句,先行词是Circus Maximus并在从句中作主语。
E.g. By 16:30, which was almost closing time, nearly all the paintings had been sold 到16:30为止,几乎所有的画都卖出去了,这几乎就是关门的时间。
【参考译文】然而,与这座城市容纳了大约25万人的Circus Maximus相比,那就显得微不足道了。
These days, safety regulations--not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and a comfortable seat--tend to keep stadium capacities slightly lower.
1). 句中的not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and a comfortable seat用做插入语。
“not to mention ... ”,意为“更不用说......,更不用提......”,表示意义的增补。
E.g. Life is full of possibilities. Not to mention, a few unexpected surprises. 生活充满了各种各样的可能,不必提及,还有一些想不到的惊喜。
It’s too far to walk, not to mention the fact that it’ll probably be closed by now anyway. 走着去太远,再说,很可能现在都已经关门了。
. “tend to + 动词原形”,意为“(往往)会......”,“(必然)能趋向于......”,“易于......”,“有......趋势”等。现代语言学家把tend to看作是“半助动词”。
E.g. He tends to get angry when people disagree with him. 当人们不同意他的观点的时候,他常常生气。
He tends to wake up early in the morning. 他通常早上醒得早。
. 句中的slightly lower是动词keep后面的宾语补足语。
“keep + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”结构,keep表示“使处于某种状态”,这里的宾语补足语主要由形容词、副词、介词短语或分词等充当。
E.g. Keep your eyes closed until I tell you to open them. 闭上眼睛,直到我让你睁开时再睁开。
This kind of exercise will keep you in good shape. 这种锻炼会让你保持健康。
I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. 对不起,让你等了。
【参考译文】 现如今,安全法规倾向于保持球场容量略低,更不用说现代体育迷渴望的一个好的视野和一个舒适的座位。
Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
. gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match是特殊结构中的倒装句,这里是表语前置。还原后的句子是:the days of thousands standing to watch the match are gone。
“ 表语 + 连系动词 + 主语 ” 是一种完全倒装结构。英语中作表语的形容词、分词等比较短,而主语则相对比较长时,为了保持句子平衡,根据英语的尾重原则(即把长而复杂的成分放在句末的原则),把表语放在句首,形成“ 表语 + 连系动词 + 主语 ”的句式。
E.g. Gone are the days when we Chinese looked down upon. 我们中国人被人看不起的日子一去不复返了。
Lucky is she who was admitted to a famous university last year. 她很幸运,去年被一所名牌大学录取。
2). standing to watch the match是现在分词短语形式做后置定语,它的逻辑主语是其所修饰的thousands(of fans)。
E.g. John has really got the job because he showed me the official letter offering him it. 约翰确实得到了这份工作,因为他给我看了给他工作的官方的信函。
【参考译文】甚至足球迷往往都有自己的座位;成千上万人站着看比赛的日子一去不复返了。
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
1). 句中的supplied by...是过去分词短语做后置定语,其逻辑主语是the World Atlas list。
E.g.The producer comes regularly to collect the cameras returned to our shop for quality problems. 厂商定期回收因质量问题退回来的相机。
2). as well as并列了stated...和updated...。as well as如同and, or一样,起并列连词作用,它所连接的成分要互相对等,即名词与名词相并列,动词与动词性并列,分词与分词相并列,等等。在A as well as B结构中,语意的侧重点常常在A项上,所以as well as词义许多情况下并不简单等同于and。
E.g. John can speak Chinese as well as French. 约翰能讲法语还能讲汉语。
Electronic computers can add and subtract as well as multiply and divide. 电子计算机能够加减,也能乘除。
It is a political as well as economic question. 这是一个政治问题,也是一个经济问题。
It is important for you as well as for me. 这件事对于你,对于我都很重要。
当用as well as来连接主语时,谓语动词的数决定于充当主语的第一个名词的数。有人把这种用法的as well as叫做“准并列连词”。
E.g. The teacher, as well as a number of students, was asked to attend the party. 老师和许多学生受邀出席来了聚会。
【参考译文】对于世界上最大的体育场,我们使用了the World Atlas list提供的迄今为止的数据,该数据根据它们所声明的永久容量,以及官方体育场网站上的更新信息进行排名。

一、真题再现
The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 8 A.Q., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and a comfortable seat-tend to keep stadium capacities(容量)slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.

Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U.S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24,1927.
21.How many people could the Circus Maximus hold
