(2) joke还可作名词，意为“笑话；玩笑”。例如：

(2) play a joke on sb. 取笑某人 make a joke讲笑话
2. snowy
snowy是形容词，意为“多雪的；下雪的”。它的名词形式是snow，意为“雪”；动词形式是snow，意为“下雪”。形容词用来作表语或定语，名词用来作主语或宾语，动词用来作谓语。例如：
If it’s snowy, you should stay indoors. 如果下雪，你应该待在室内。
We have a very snowy winter this year. 今年我们拥有一个多雪的冬天。
【拓展】在名词词尾加-y构成形容词，类似的词还有：
rain—rainy 雨—下雨的 sun—sunny 太阳—晴朗的
luck—lucky 幸运—幸运的 wind—windy 风—刮风的
snow—snowy 雪—下雪的
3. although
although的意思相当于though，意为“尽管，虽然”，用来引导让步状语从句。它所引导的从句不能与并列连词but; and; so等连用，但可以和yet; still等词连用。例如：
Although he lives alone, he doesn’t feel lonely.= He lives alone, but he doesn’t feel lonely.
虽然他一个人住，但他并不感到孤独。
There is air all around us, although we cannot see it.
虽然我们看不见空气，但空气却存在于我们的周围。
【拓展】although与though的辨析：
(1) 用作连词，表示“虽然”，二者可以互换使用，但although比though更为正式。例如：
Though/Although it was raining, we still went there. 虽然下着雨，但我们还是去了那里。
(2) although一般不用作副词，而though可用作副词，且一般放在句末（不放在句首），意为“可是，不过”。例如：
It’s hard work; I enjoy it, though. 工作很辛苦，可是我很喜欢。
We all tried our best. We lost the game, though. 我们都尽力最大努力，但我们还是输了。
(3) 在as though(好像，仿佛)，even though(即使，纵然)等固定短语中不能用although。例如：
He talks as though he knew everything. 他夸夸其谈，好像无所不知。
4. wish
wish作动词，意为“但愿；希望”，与hope同义。一般用于表示“难以实现或不可能实现的愿望”，强调主语的主观愿望。例如：
I wish I could see him now, because I miss him very much. 我希望我现在能见到他，因为我很想念他。
【拓展】辨析：hope与wish
(1) 相同点：表示“想；希望”，宾语可为to do,不能用doing。
I hope/wish to visit Guilin. 我希望去桂林观光。
(2) 不同点：wish后可以跟复合宾语，即wish sb. to do sth.,而hope不能。
I wish you to go.(正) 我希望你去。
I hope you to go.(误) 我希望你去。
(3) 两者都可接that从句，但是“hope + that从句”表示希望，“wish + that从句”表示愿望，且从句的谓语动词要用虚拟语气。
I hope you’ll be better soon. 我希望你很快好起来。
I wish I were really wealthy. 但愿我真的富有。
(4) wish后可接双宾语。
We wish you a happy New Year! 我们祝你新年快乐！
5. probably; maybe, perhaps
(1) probably表示“大概；或许；很可能”，指某事的发生很有可能或十之八九，其语意较强，侧重有根据、合情合理的推测，表示可能性很大。例如：
It will probably be fine tomorrow. 明天大概会是晴天。
(2) maybe的意思是“也许，可能”，表示的可能性较大，而且比较口语化，常位于句首，表示疑惑，含有推测之意。例如：
Maybe she’ll come this afternoon.她可能今天下午来。
(3) perhaps表示的可能性较小，仅表示一种无根据的猜测。一般也放在句首，有时可与maybe换用。例如：
Perhaps you would like to join us for lunch. 也许你愿意和我们一块去吃午饭。
6. come on
come on 意为“快点”，是come组成的常用词组之一，在口语中使用很广泛，有很多不同的意思。以下是常见的用法：
（1）表示请求、鼓励、劝说等。例如：
Come on，Lucy，don’t be so shy. 来吧，露茜，别不好意思。
（2）表示催促。例如：
Come on, it’s getting dark. 快点，天要黑了。
（3）体育竞赛时鼓励队员，意为“加油”。例如：
“Come on！ Come on！” shouted the audience again and again.
“加油！加油！”观众一再地喊。
7. compare to
compare to意为“和……相比较”，在句中作状语时也可用compare with。例如：
The prices are low compared to those in other shops. 与其他商店的价格相比，这些价格算是低的。
表示“与……比较”时，既可以用compared with，也可以用compared to，但表示“把……比作”时，只能用compared to。例如：
He compared his camera with/ to mine. 他拿自己的相机与我的作比较。
Books can be compared to friends. 书本好比朋友。
8. later
later是副词，意为“以后；过后；后来”，单独使用时，具有泛指意义；与表示时间的词连用时，指在一段时间后。例如：
Let’s stop now and finish it later. 让我们现在停下来，以后再完成它。
Did you see him later? 你后来见到过他吗？
【拓展】
(1) later与after的辨析：
after
介词
以过去时间为起点的“一段时间之后”。也可用于将来的时间点之后。
① 过去时并接一段时间
② 将来时间点之后表将来
later
副词
一段时间 + later
① 一段时间 + later，常用过去时
② later单独用，可用于过去时或将来时
例如：
He started on Monday and arrived in Beijing after three days. 他星期一出发，三天后到达北京。
I’ll be free after Friday. 我星期五之后有空。
Ten years later, the old man died. 十年后，那位老人去世了。
(2) later on也表示“以后，后来”的意思，但later on表示的时间往往不确定，指不具体的时间。例如：
I’ll tell you about him later on. 有关他的情况以后我会告诉你的。
We’ll discuss the matter later on. 我们以后将讨论这件事。
9. may/might
　表示可能性时，may和might没有很大区别，但表示一般将来时的可能性时，might的可能性比may的可能性要小。例如：
Bring your swimsuit because you might want to swim in the sea.
带上游泳衣，说不定你想到海里去游泳呢。
【拓展】其他表示可能性的方式：
It is possible that…
It is possible to do sth.
主语 + will probably/ possibly + 动词原形 + 其他 例如：
It is possible that it’ll be snowy. 有可能要下雪。
Is it possible to visit Changchun in December? 十二月份去长春旅游有可能吗？
It’ll probably be rainy tomorrow. 明天很可能有雨。

句式精讲
1. What’s the weather like in…?
(1) What’s the weather like? 是询问天气情况的常用句型，也可以用How is the weather?询问天气，二者可以互换使用，意为“天气怎么样？”，其后可以加时间，表示某个时间的天气怎么样？例如：
What’s the weather like today? = How is the weather today? 今天的天气怎么样？
What’s the weather like in Beijing? = How is the weather in Beijing?北京的天气怎么样？
(2) What’s the weather like in + 地方？或How’s the weather in + 地方？表示“某地的天气怎么样？”
(3) What’s the weather like? 与How is the weather?问句的常用答语：

— What’s the weather like in Toronto today?今天多伦多的天气怎么样？
— It’s sunny. 天气晴朗。
2. You can go to Hainan Island if you like sunny weather.
(1) 本句是if引导的条件状语从句，主句中含有情态动词，从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时。例如：
If?you?finish the work, you?can go home now.
如果你完成工作，现在就可以回家。??
(2) 在?if?引导的条件状语从句中，if?和条件句位置灵活，可直接放在主句后面，若?if?条件句放句首，?从句后面要加逗号，和主句隔开。
If you ask him，he will help you. = He will help you if you ask him. 如果你请他帮忙，他会帮你的。
口诀：????
if?条件句不一般，几个要点记心间；???
条件句，放在前，逗号要放句中间。??????
????? 条件句表事实，主句常用现在时。?
【拓展】if?条件句的时态搭配：?
在复合句中：⑴ 当主句是一般现在时或是一般将来时时；（2）当主句是祈使句时；（3）当主句含有情态动词时，if引导的条件状语从句通常用一般现在时。例如：

Have a good rest if you are tired. 如果累了，你就好好休息一下。
We must study hard if we want to pass the final exam. 如果想通过期末考试，我们必须努力学习。
3.…because you might want to go swimming in the sea…

【拓展】feel like; would like与want的辨析：
三者都可表示“想要做某事”。其用法分别如下：
(1) feel like 后接名词、代词或动名词，构成feel like doing sth. 例如：
I don’t feel like eating. 我不想吃东西。
(2) would like后接名词、代词或不定式。构成：would like to do sth. 例如：

(3) want后可接名词或不定式，构成want to do sth. 例如：
Do you want to join us? 你想加入到我们中吗？
4.…you had better go in summer.
　had better(常简略为’d better)是一固定词组，had better意为“最好”，用于表示对别人的劝告、建议或表示一种愿望。其用法有以下几点：

5. Do not forget to bring a warm sweater with you.
forget后可接动词不定式，构成forget to do sth.结构；也可接动名词，构成forget doing sth.的结构，但二者意义有区别：
forget to do sth.表示“忘记要做某事”，事情还没有做；forget doing sth.表示“忘记曾经做过某事”，事情已经做过了。例如：
Don’t forget to turn off the light when you leave. 离开时别忘记关灯。
He forgot going to Shanghai with his parents when he was five years old.
他忘记五岁时曾经和父母去过上海。
I forgot locking the door. 我忘了已把门锁上了。（门已经锁了，却忘记了）
Don’t forget to call me. 不要忘了给我打电话。（强调电话还没有打）

Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报) the weather．They are in space，and they can reach any part of the world．The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大气)，because this is where the weather forms(形成)．They send these pictures to the weather stations．So meteorologists(气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world．From the pictures，the scientists can often say how the weather will change．
Today，nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures．When they receive new pictures，the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones．Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours．This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change，too．In their next weather forecast．the meteorologists can say this．
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists．Before satellites were invented，the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours．Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days．Soon，perhaps，they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead(提前)．

C．weather forecasting
D．doing other work in many ways

（2019年陕西省中考）
A recently study found people’s lives are made shorter in North China. It is showed the life expectancy(预期寿命) had been cut down by 5.5 years there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame(承担责任). It’s really the truth. Our government has already done something. However, it doesn’t seem to work so well.
“Air pollution in China is doing harm to people’s health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University, one of researchers of this study.
Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year, the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas(废气) from coal heating.
Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses, ride bicycles or walk, instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.
“We need to improve our environment, although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves,” Li Hongbin, another researcher of the study said.
11. The passage above may come from a(n) ?
A. story B. advertisement C. report D. diary
12. Which of the following is Li Hongbin’s idea?
A. The life expectancy had been cut by 5.5 years.
B. Chinese government should close some factories that pollute heavily.
C. People need to make pollution less, although it might cost a lot.
D. The air problem brings us serious problems.
13. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Air pollution in North China is caused by waste gas.
B. To save the environment, our government should do something more.
C. The temperature becomes higher and higher in North China.

【答案与解析】
I. 单项选择。
1．B。由句意“桌子上有一把雨伞。它是你的吗?”可知用a或an表示“一把”。a用在以辅音音素开头的单词前，an用在以元音音素开头的单词前，umbrella的读音以元音音素开头，故选B。
2．A。It’s + adj. + to do sth. 是固定句式，意为“做某事是……的”，其中it作形式主语，其后的动词不定式短语作真正的主语。
3．B。由句意 “上海的天气与北京的天气不同”可知，这里前后所指的内容要一致。用that指代the weather。
4. B。由句意“北京今天的温度是零下6度”可知，这里选用表示“温度”的temperature。
5. C。taste是一个连系动词，其后要用形容词作表语，只有C项符合语法要求。
6. B。分析句子可知，后句中没有谓语动词，所以要选用能作谓语的选项may be。句意：“露西在哪里?”“我不确定。她可能在教室里。”
7．A。本句的主语the day为单数概念，排除B、D两项；get强调逐渐变化的过程。turn一般指颜色的改变。由句意“随着季节的改变，天变得越来越长”可知A项符合题意。
8．A。本题考查动词不定式作定语的用法。句意：我们每天有许多作业要做。
9．C。more than相当于over，意为“多于，超过”。
10．A。had better后用动词原形；其否定式为在动词原形前直接加not。由句意“你最好和你父母一起去游泳”可知用肯定式，故选A。
11．D。compared to是固定词组，意为“与……相比较”，故选D。
12．C。在同一范围内比较，用any other+单数名词，意思是“其他任何一个……”。
13．A。提问天气常用的句型有“What’s the weather like?”或“How is the weather?”。
14．D。第一个空在is后，应用形容词作表语；there be句型中，be后接名词。故选D。
15．C。由“我不能确定”可知有可能去天津。might和can都可以表示“可能”，但can常用于否定句或疑问句中。故选C。

1. D。此题考察形容词最高级最常考的一个句型“one?of?the?+形容词最高级+可数名词复数”表示“最.……之一”?。
2. D。句意：现在我叔叔的农场里有许多绵羊和猪。本题考查动词时态。根据题干中的now可排除A和B；因为sheep为复数，故选D。
3. B。句意：Diana没在这儿，因此在她的桌子上留下便条吧。本题考查连词。由句意可知前后句之间是因果关系，故用连词so。
II. 完形填空。
1．D。根据下文可知，哈里斯夫妇出国旅游并住进高级宾馆，说明哈里斯先生赚了很多钱。故选money。
2．B。made a lot of money与下文go to a foreign country构成因果关系，故选so“因此”。
3．A。与下文a 5-star hotel相对应，这里应选择hotel。
4．C。表示到达目的地，reach可直接接宾语；get后应加介词to；arrive为不及物动词，后应加介词in或at才能接宾语，所以arrive为正确选项。
5．A。根据文章第一句中的a small hotel可知，此处指“在那个小旅馆”。
6．B。此处指他们在以前住的宾馆里晚上7点以后不可能有饭菜供应。故应选择after。
7．C。有人告知饭菜供应会持续到十点时，他们当然会感到surprised。
8．D。of常用来表示所有关系，the times of meals表示“每顿饭的供应时间”。
9．B。根据西方人的生活习惯，宾馆一般不会在一段时间只供应啤酒，下午喝茶比较合乎常理。故选tea。
10．D。哈里斯夫人以为从早到晚都得在吃饭或喝茶，几乎没有剩余时间观光旅游了，leave表示“剩下，遗留”。
