三、經典名題導解

1.- Do you like the material?

-Yes,it_____ very soft.

A.is feeling B.felt C.feels D.is felt

解析：此題主要考查feel一詞作系動詞的用法。因為空格后面是形容詞，所以謂語動詞要用系動詞的一船現在時，而不用它的被動語態和現在進行時。故正確答案為C。

點評：諸如 feel作系動詞的用法的詞還有：sound,taste, smell,

look等，經常被測試。需要注意的是這些系動詞不用進時和被動語態。

2．After the new technique was introduced,the factory produced_______ tractors in 1988 as the year before.

A.as twice many B.as many twice

C.twice as many D.twice many as

解析：此題主要考查形容詞中倍數的表達法。表示倍數、幾分之幾、百分之的單詞或短語放在as(so)…as 或形容詞比較級的前面。所以要填twice as many as。故答案為C。

點評：倍數的表達公式為：A is …times + adj./adv.(比較級)+that+B或A is...times+as+adj./adv.(原級)+as+B,答題時需注意屬于哪一句式。

3．Mr Zhang gave the textbooks to all the pupils except _____ who had already taken them.

A.the ones B. ones C.some D.the others

解析：本題主要考查不定代詞的用法區別。這是一個限定性定語從句。缺少先行詞。the ones 表示特指，ones 表示泛指，不能作先行詞，the others 意思是“剩余的”，與定語從句的語義重復，some亦為泛指。故答案為A。

點評：不定代詞one、it、ones、the ones以及other、the other(s)在英語的語言運用中極為普及，需留意它們區別。

4.- ______ you like some more bread?

-I’m full, thank you .

A.Shall B.Will C.Are D.Would

解析：本題考查“would……like sth.”句型表示征求對方意見的用法。shall用于征詢對方意見時常用于第一、三人稱中，will 和would 常用于第二人稱表示征求對方意見，但would語氣更委婉，因此本題答案D恰當。

點評：情態動詞是語法學習的一大難點，解這類題時應準確理解語意，把握語境。

5.Thank you very much for _______ you have done for my sister.

A.that B.which C.it D.what

解析：本題考查賓語從句在復合句中的用法。這是一個復合句，其中，you have done for my sister這個句子是作介詞for的賓語，因此這是一個賓語從句，而從句中done是個及物動詞，其后缺少了賓語。故答案選D。

點評：解復合句時，首先應分析句子結構，弄清句子結構后，根據不同的從句選用正確的連接詞。

e.g.I don’t know where I can buy this map.

6.- Do you think I could borrow your dictionary?

- ________.

A.Yes, you may borrow B.Yes, you could

D.Yes, help yourself D.Yes, go on

解析：本題考查日常口語的使用。題中用could 是請求對方幫忙或同意自己做某事時婉轉的用法。因此本題問話簡略答語可以是“Yes,you can”而不是B項“Yes ,you could”，而A項不能省略代詞it.D項意為“用吧”。故答案選 C恰當。意為“自己取用”。

點評：對于一些語意相近的答語應認真分析，逐一排除。

In big cities,Americans do their grocery(食品雜貨)shopping at large supermarkets.They usually shop once or twice a week,and when they go through the check-out stand(付款出口),their shopping cars are full of groceries.

A large supermarket is a big business.Although mainly selling foods of different kinds,supermarkets also handle other things including school and garden supplies, beer,toothpaste,toys,clothing,magazines,books and even medicines.The supermarket tries to meet the house wife’s every need so that when she leaves,she’ll shop nowhere else.

In order to attract customers,supermarkets have tried to make shopping as pleasant as possible.Some of them have flowers and trees in the parking place.Some have roofs cover the walks so that shoppers can walk from their cars to the store without having to worry about snow,rain or the hot sun.Most of the stores are air-conditioned.

With these and other improvements,supermarkets are becoming more and more popular.This is not limited to the United States.From Bankok to Buenos Aires.the old-styled grocery store is fast disappearing.In Europe,supermarkets have been growing in number since 1975.There is no doubt about it---more and more housewives around the world will soon be standing in the check-out lines.

Everyone talks about the“five”senses of man.And it is true that we get our information about the outside world from our sense of sight,hearing,smell,touch and taste.Researchers tell us that the sense of sight---our visual sense---gives us up to 80% of what we know about the would outside of our bodies;while the other senses,the auditory(hearing),the olfactory(smell),the tactile(touch)and the gustatory(taste) bring into our brains information about the other twenty percent of what is happening.But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without,though they are seldom noticed.They are the sense of balance,without which we would act like a drunk(醉人)after a heavy drink,and the kinesthetic sense,which gives us our ideas about our own motion.

Because plants can not move or speak,most people believe that they have no feeling and that they cannot receive signals from outside.Is this true?

People who study plants have found out that plants carry a small electrical charge(電荷).It is possible to measure this charge with a small piece of equipment called a“galvanometer”.The galvanometer is placed on a leaf of a plant,and it shows any change in the electrical field of the leaf.Human have similar electrical field which can change when we are shocked or frightened.

A man called Backster used a galvaometer for his studies of plants and was very surprised at the results.He found that if he had two or more plants in a room and he began to destroy one of them perhaps by pulling off its leaves or by pulling it out of its pot,the galvanometer on the leaves of other plants showed a change in electrical field.It seemed as if the plants were signalling a feeling of shock.This happened not only when Backster started to destroy plants,but when he destroyed other living things such as pets(害蟲).

Another plant scientist,named Sauvin,gained similar results to Backster’s.He kept galvanometer fixed to his plants all the time and checked regularly to see what the plants were doing.He found that the plants were sending out signals at the exact time when he felt strong pleasure or pain.

A Japanese scientist called Hashimoto,who loved his plants dearly(非常),said that they could talk.He built an equipment which changed the electrical signals of plants into sounds.The sound were different when different things happened to the plants.For example,when they were moved to a new place or watered.Dr Hashimoto’s wife had talks with the plants.When she spoke to a plant,it answered with a signal which she could hear on Dr Hashimoto’s equipment.

68. The plants sent out signals_______.
