【语境应用】用以上所讲短语的适当形式完成句子。

make+宾语+名词
e.g. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.
make+宾语+形容词
e.g. Jack couldn’t find his dog. That made him very sad.
make+宾语+省略to的不定式（短语）
e.g. For example, the pattern of day and night makes us
wake up and go to sleep.
make+宾语+过去分词
e.g. I had to speak aloud to make myself heard by all the

3. Neither is there pine nor apple in pineapple.
e.g. Neither Anna nor I am interested in the book.
本句是一个倒装句，正常的语序应该为“There is neither pine nor apple in pineapple.” 当否定词或具有否定意义的词放在句首时，通常会引起句子的部分倒装。
neither…nor…连接两个名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词遵循“就近原则”，有同样用法的还有either…or…(或者……或者……)，not only…but also…(不但……而且……)，not…but(不是……而是……)等。
neither …nor… 既不……也不……
e.g. Not only Jim but also his sister has visited a few cities in the south since they came to China.
To avoid gathering, neither the students nor their teacher is going to the party this evening.
Either you or one of your students is to attend the meeting that is due tomorrow.
4. You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which an alarm is only heard once it goes off!
本句为主从复合句。主句为You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language；in which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词language。
Paraphrase: You will also feel confused by the unique craziness of English. When a house is destroyed by fire, you can say “it burns up”, and you can also say “it burns down”. “To fill in a form” means the same as “to fill out a form”. And when an alarm “goes off”, it makes a noise so you can hear it.
