Language Points 1. Some of the verbs can refer to more than one means of transport.有些動詞可以指不止一種交通方式。 means n．方法，手段；工具(單復(fù)數(shù)相同) There is no means of finding out what happened. 無法搞清楚到底發(fā)生了什么事。 There is no doubt that radio and television are important means of communication. 毫無疑問，收音機(jī)和電視是信息交流的重要工具。 means of transport 交通方式 by all means 一定，務(wù)必 by any means 無論如何 by means of 用，依靠 by no means 決不，一點也不 by this means 通過這種方式 Every possible means been tried，and we find only this means can we do it well. A．have；in B．have；by C．has；in D．has；by 答案　D 解析　其余幾項均容易被誤選。這里主要涉及名詞means(方式，方法，手段)的用法與搭配；means單復(fù)數(shù)同形。every means意思是“每一個方法”故謂語動詞應(yīng)為單數(shù)；“通過某種方式”，介詞用by。故選項中只有D項正確。 2. take off (飛機(jī))起飛；匆匆離去；脫下(衣服)；(事業(yè))騰飛 The plane took off on time.飛機(jī)按時起飛。 He took off for the station at a run. 他匆匆向車站奔去。(take off＝leave) He took off his coat as soon as he entered his room. 一到他的房間他就脫下了大衣。 Her singing career took off after her TV appearance. 她在電視上亮相后，歌唱事業(yè)迅速騰飛。 take after 長得像；追趕 take sb.around 領(lǐng)某人參觀 take away 運走，清理 take back 取回，帶回；取消 take...for 把……當(dāng)作，誤認(rèn)……為…… take down 拿下；寫下；拆毀 take on 雇用；承擔(dān)；呈現(xiàn) take over 接管 take up 拿起；占據(jù)；開始 Internet shopping will really when people make sure that it is safe. A．take off B．take up C．set off D．set up 答案　A 解析　句意為：當(dāng)人們確保網(wǎng)上購物安全時，它才能真正地興盛起來。這里要用take off表示“興起，騰飛”。take up占據(jù)；從事；set off出發(fā)；引起；set up建立。 3. Where do you think most of the people live，in the central part of the country or on the coast？你認(rèn)為大多數(shù)人生活在哪里，是在國家的中部還是在沿海？ 句子中的句型是一種復(fù)雜的特殊疑問句。其結(jié)構(gòu)是：特殊疑問詞＋do you think＋陳述句結(jié)構(gòu)。從語法角度講，do you think是插入語。無論疑問詞在句中作什么成分，特殊疑問句都用陳述語序。用于以上句型的動詞除think外，常見的還有believe，consider，suppose，imagine，guess和suggest等。 Who do you think is the best person for this post? 你認(rèn)為誰是這個崗位的最佳人選？ Who do you suggest (should) be sent to go abroad for further study? 你主張應(yīng)該派誰去出國深造？ — do you think will teach us Math next term? —Miss Dong，I think. A．Whom B．What C．Who D．Whose 答案　C 解析　do you think為插入語，who作疑問句的主語。 4.And what a ride！那是多棒的旅程??！ 本句是一個省略了主語和謂語的感嘆句，完整的句子應(yīng)為：And what a ride it was！感嘆句常用來表達(dá)說話者的驚訝、喜悅、氣憤等情緒。英語中的感嘆句通常用what和how引導(dǎo)，常用句型如下： (1)what式感嘆句： What a tall man (Yao Ming is)! (姚明是)多么高的一個人?。? What beautiful flowers (they are)! (它們是)多么漂亮的花?。? What fun it is to travel around China! 在中國旅游是多么開心的事??！ (2)how式感嘆句： How tall a man Yao Ming is! 姚明真高?。? How clever the boy is! 這個男孩多么聰明??！ How fast Liu Xiang runs! 劉翔跑得真快啊！ How time flies! 時間過得真快啊！ 用what或how填空 (1)What pretty girls they are! (2)How fast he speaks! (3)How heavy a stone it is! (4)What a nice voice she has! 5.

A．get on；will stop B．get into；will stop C．get on；has stopped D．get into；has stopped 答案　C 解析　大型交通工具用get on/off；時間、條件狀語從句中用現(xiàn)在時，或現(xiàn)在完成時表示 將來。 (2)Hardly could he this amount of work in such a short time. A．get through B．get off C．get into D．get down 答案　A 解析　get through完成，通過；get off下來；脫下；get into進(jìn)入；滲透進(jìn)；get down寫 下，下來；降落。根據(jù)句意，A項正確。 6. We ate great meals cooked by experts！我們吃的是由烹飪大師們做的美味飯菜！ cooked by experts為過去分詞短語在句中作定語。分詞在句中作定語，看分詞與所修飾名 詞或代詞之間的關(guān)系：主動用現(xiàn)在分詞；被動則用過去分詞。 The boy standing there is my brother. 站在那邊的這個男孩是我弟弟。(stand與the boy之間為主動關(guān)系) Have you finished the exercises given by Professor Li? 你完成了李教授安排的練習(xí)了嗎？(give與exercises之間為被動關(guān)系) 過去分詞短語作定語置于被修飾詞之后，而單獨的過去分詞作定語一般放在被修飾詞 之前。 We saw abandoned farms which were built more than 100 years ago. 我們看到了一些建于100多年前的被遺棄的農(nóng)場。 Trained camels carried food and other supplies. 受過訓(xùn)練的駱駝運載食物和其他供應(yīng)物資。 We’re worried about the polluted river. 我們?yōu)檫@條受到污染的河流而擔(dān)心。 There have been several new events to the program for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. A．a(chǎn)dd B．to add C．a(chǎn)dding D．a(chǎn)dded 答案　D 解析　add為及物動詞，即：add sth.to sth.。本題中應(yīng)為add several new events to the program。因此add與new events之間為被動關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作后置定語。 7.

(2)在現(xiàn)在完成時中，today/this week所指的時間并沒結(jié)束，仍為現(xiàn)在。 I haven’t seen Li Hong today/this week. 我今天/這周沒看到李紅。 Section Three　Function；Vocabulary；Reading and Speaking；Listening；Writing； Pronunciation & Everyday English Language Points 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 1. pardon v. & n.原諒，寬恕 Please pardon me for waking you. 請原諒我吵醒了你。 Pardon me—I didn’t hear what you said. 對不起，我沒聽見你說的話。 Beg pardon，I didn’t quite catch your meaning. 對不起，我沒聽清楚你的意思。 pardon sb.for sth.(pardon sb.sth.)原諒某人做某事 ask for pardon請求原諒 Pardon me！請原諒！ I beg your pardon./Beg pardon./Pardon.請原諒；對不起，我沒聽清楚，請再說一遍。 forgive，excuse，pardon (1)forgive 有較強(qiáng)的感情色彩，指寬恕某種錯誤或犯罪行為，常用于個人對個人的關(guān)系方面，不僅表示放棄懲罰，而且還可消除怨恨，強(qiáng)調(diào)主觀上的寬恕。 He forgave her the wrongs she had done on him. 她冤枉了他，但他原諒了她。 (2)excuse指原諒某人的小過失或疏忽。常用來客氣地打斷某人的話，或引起某人的注意。 Excuse me for my being late.請原諒我遲到了。 (3)pardon指饒恕嚴(yán)重的過失，尤其指法律上或道德上的錯；也可以
