【答案】
1.The number of the students in our school is 2000.
2.A number of students are playing on the playground.
3.C
4.A
5.are
6.play
7.is
8.A
解析:根据题意,本句是有许多鹿,许多是a number of。Deer的用法是单复数同形。中考时,有三个单复数同形的单词,必须要记住:鱼鹿羊(谐音于露洋,一个美丽的小女孩),fish,deer,sheep。
9.C
解析:第一空,句子里的动词是like,是原形,不是三单,因此用a number of。如果是the number of,谓语动词一般来说都应该是is,rises,increases这类词汇。第二空就是分数的用法:子基母序的规则,也可以把fifth看成五分之一,那么五分之四就是四个五分之一。因此fifth用复数。
三、look like, be like和feel like 的区别
like最常用作【v.】和【prep】
①作动词,“喜欢”
②作介词,“像”,“类似”,“...怎么样”
注意下面两个高频表达:
How do you like your teacher
= What do you think of your teacher
你认为你的老师怎么样
What is the weather like in Chongqing
= How is the weather in Chongqing
重庆的天气怎么样
短语辨析:
look like “看上去像”,指外观上像。
be like “像……一样”,指品德、相貌等,更多侧重表示人的个性特征。
feel like意为“想要(做某事)”,feel like doing sth.=want to do sth., 其后接名词或动名词,不能接不定式。
feel like 还表示 “摸起来好像”, 因为feel是系动词, 表示“摸起来”,“感觉到”
如:
She looks like her mother.
她看起来像她妈妈。
--What is he like 他是个什么样的人
--He is kind and warm-hearted.他善良又热心。
I feel like a cup of tea.
我想喝杯茶。
Do you feel like joining us
你想要加入我们吗?
I like this scarf.It feels like silk.
喜欢这条围巾。 它摸起来像丝绸。
四、think相关短语
think about 意为“想,考虑”,指考虑解决某一问题,“考虑”的宾语可由名词、代词、动名词、疑问词引导的不定式或宾语从句充当。
think of 意为“思考,想起,考虑”。表示“考虑”的含义时,可与think about互换,后接名词、代词、v.-ing形式或疑问词引导的从句。
think over 意为“仔细考虑”,其中over为副词,如宾语为名词,位于over前后均可,如果是代词,必须置于think与over 之间。
【练习】
1.我正在考虑一个问题。(汉译英)
2.He always thinks of others more than himself.(英译汉)
3.在你做这件事之前,你最好先好好考虑一下。(汉译英)

【答案】

2.他总是为别人考虑得多,为自己考虑得少。
3.You'd better think it over before you do it.
4.C
5.①think of
②think; over
五、leave相关短语
leave “离开,出发”,其后接表示地点的名词,构成“leave+地点名词”短语。
leave for 后接表示地点名词表示“动身去某地”。
leave...for...表示“离开某地去另一地”, 即leave A for B。
leave from “从……离开”,from后的地点是离开的地方。
如:
When did you leave London
你们是什么时候离开伦敦的
We are leaving for Rome next week.
我们下周将要去罗马。
We will leave Beijing for Shanghai.
我们将要离开北京去上海。
I'm leaving from school.
