(2)英语中“年代”用基数词的复数形式，“世纪”用序数词。例如：
in the 1990s 在二十世纪九十年代

3.语法： 被动语态
(1)当我们不知道谁是动作的执行者，或者没有必要指出谁是动作的执行者时，或者只需强调动作的承受者时，要用被动语态。
(2)被动语态由助动词be+过去分词构成，时态通过be表现出来。
一般现在时：am (is, are) + 过去分词
一般过去时：was (were) + 过去分词
一般将来时：will + be + 过去分词
现在完成时：have (has) been + 过去分词
现在进行时：am (is, are) being + 过去分词
带有情态动词：can (may, must, should) + be + 过去分词
(3)几点说明：
①不及物动词没有被动语态，但后面加上介词或副词后就可以变为被动语态，不过要特别注意短语动词中的介词或副词绝对不能丢失。
②双宾结构，一般把表示人的间接宾语变为被动语态的主语。如果把表示物的直接宾语变为被动语态的主语时，要在宾语前加上to或for。是to还是for，要依据与它们搭配的动词来定。
③在主动语态中省略to的不定式，在改为被动语态后，应加上不定式符号to。

Do you have a goal for life What's it Do you want to become a writer, singer or just become a rich person
A recent survey shows that in modern society, most people pick up practical goals, such as “earning money to buy a house and a car”, “to improve one's life quality”, “finding a good job”.
Wang You worked in a small firm (商行) in Nanjing. The job was good and he didn't have to work for extra hours. However, he felt the work was not exciting at all and the life was boring. So he gave up his job and went to Beijing in February, 2007. When he arrived in Beijing, he set his new goal as finding a good job.
Nowadays more and more people want to live a better life. This fact shows that the society is making progress and people's life goals have become more practical. One researcher says, “Everybody has his/her own life goal, which will be surely different from people to people. If one is poor, one's life goal will be to earn more money; if one doesn't have a diploma, studying hard to get a diploma will become his life goal; and if one doesn't have love, his life goal will be to look for it. But if one has no life goal, he will idle away (虚度) his lifetime.”

1. Why did Wang You go to Beijing though he had a good job in Nanjing
_____________________________________________________________________
2. If a man is poor, what will his life goal be

1． A one of 后要用可数名词的复数形式，根据文章意思，可知答案是A。
2． D 要表达第几个世纪，应该用“序数词＋century”，而根据常识，计算机是二十世纪 的产物，A项“二十一世纪”与实际不符合。
3． B 固定搭配not only…but (also)… 意思是“不但……而且……”。所以答案是B。
4． A in many ways为一固定用法，表示“在许多方面”。
5． C 因为Enid是名字，故用called。
6． C 根据常识可知老式计算机庞大而笨重，故填large。
