專題一: Unit1-2
瞭望新高考
一、新考綱新變化
1 第一單元話題是朋友，在高考中此話題將以完型填空，閱讀理解以及寫作的形式出現。07年全國卷高考中書面表達正是此話題。
2 第二單元話題是“語言學習”。關注有關世界英語的文章，了解英國英語和美國英語的差異和語言的變化和發展。此話題常常以閱讀理解和聽力理解的形式出現。
二、新命題新思路
1 句型so/nor/neither +助動詞+主語，是高考中的熱點，在07年高考全國卷Ⅱ中又一次出現。
2 祈使句也是重點之一，注意的是出題方式的新穎性，此語法在05、06高考中反復考查。
第一部分 啟迪篇
跟著高考走
1. 【對應課文】SB 1 P2 I don’t enjoy singing, nor do I like computers.
【對應考點】“neither\nor\so+助動詞+主語”表示“某人或某事也是這樣”的用法。
解讀： 這種意義可用下表中的三個不同的句型來表達。
句 型 前面的句子 例 句
so+助動詞+主語 應為肯定句 He went to the cinema, so did I
If he goes fishing, so will I
neither/nor+助動詞+主語 應為否定句 You care little for money , neither does he
She has never been there ,(and) nor have you.
So it is/was with + ……或It is/was the same with +…… 有兩個不同的謂語或兩個不同主語的并列句。 My brother is a good student and often does good deeds. So it is my sister.
說明：要注意與相似句型“so + 主語+助詞”的區別。該句型用來對前面某種說法的贊同或附和，常譯成，“確實如此”。
【對應高考題1】（07全國II）If Joe’s wife won’t go to the party, ____.
A. he will either B. neither will he C. he neither will D. either he will
【解析】以so/nor/neither開頭的倒裝句，用于倒裝表示“也不”
答案 B
【對應高考題2】（07江蘇） –My room gets very cold at night.
--__________.
A. So is mine. B. So mine is C. So does mine D. So mine does
【解析】表示肯定的“也”的時候，用So + be/have/情態動詞/助動詞 + 主語
答案 C
2. 【對應課文】SB 1 P2 I don’t enjoy reading too much.
【對應考點】too much與 much too的用法和區別。
解讀：“much too+形容詞或副詞”表示“實在太…；非常…”。而“too much”意為“太多”，可以修飾動詞或不可數名詞，也可以單獨作表語。如：The work is too much for me這工作我干不了。
【對應高考題】Allen had to call a taxi because the box was ____ to carry all the way home.
A. much too heavy B. too much heavy
C. heavy too much D. too heavy much
解析：much too+形容詞或副詞
答案 A
3. 【對應課文】SB 1 P2 I think that rock music is too loud,and I think that football is boring.
【對應考點】bore\interest\please\satisfy\disappoint\excite\frighten\move\tire等，這些“情感動詞”的現在分詞與過去分詞的用法區別。
一般說來，這些動詞的現在分詞表示“令人感到…”，其主語常為物,這些動詞的過去分詞則意為“某人感到…”其主語常為人。注意;pleasing相當于 pleasant； satisfying相當于 satisfactory。另外，能反應某人的感情的名詞如：voice, cry, scream, looks, steps, smile, face等常用過去分詞修飾。如：Getting such a good job, he gave me a satisfied smile.
【對應高考題】（07江蘇）He is very popular among his students as he always tries to make them ______ in his lectures.
A. interested B. interesting C. interest D. to interest
解析：此題考查make后加形容詞形式，根據空格前的them可判斷和interested形成邏輯關系。
答案 A
4. 【對應課文】SB 1 P3 One day Chuck is on a flight across the Pacific Ocean when suddenly his plane crashes.
【對應考點】; when 做等立連詞的用法。
解讀: when 做等立連詞，意為“就在此時”，相當于at that time,suddenly。常用的句式有:be doing…when…(正在做...突然); be about to do …when…\ be on the point of doing…when…(正要做...突然), as\while沒有此用法。
【對應高考題1】(05北京春)
We were swimming in the lake ___suddenly the storm started.
A. when B. while C. until D. before
解析：be doing…when…(正在做...突然)
答案 A
【對應高考題2】It is almost five years _____we saw each other last time.
A before B since C after D when
解析 ：It is+一段時間+since-clause
答案 ：A
5【對應課文】SB 1 P4 He also learns that he should have cared more about his friends.
【對應考點】should\ought to have done 的用法。
解讀：該結構意為“某人過去本應該干某事卻沒有干”，表示說話人的責備或遺憾之情。”而“should\ought to + do”則表示將來要發生的動作。
【對應高考題1】（07江西）.-Where is my dictionary? I remember I put it here yesterday.
-You it in the wrong place.
A.must put B.should have put C.might put D.might have put
【解析】.might have done表示對過去的猜測，表示“可能做過某事”，此題不能選should have put
答案 D
【對應高考題2】（05山東）He paid for the seat, When he _______ have entered free.
A. could B. would C. must D. need (下劃線者為正確大難答案，下同)
【解析】解答本題的關鍵是when(盡管，雖然)一詞，盡管他能免費進入，但他還是買了票。這兒could have entered free表示本來能免費進入的，表示批評、責備之意。
答案 A
【對應高考題3】--- Guess what! I have got A for my term paper.
--- Great! You ______ read widely and put a lot of work into it.
A. must B. should C. must have D. should have
【點撥】must have done 表示對過去發生的事情很有把握的猜測，表示“某人一定做過某”
答案 C
6【對應課文】SB 1 P10 English is a language spoken all over the world.
【對應考點】：過去分詞與現在分詞作后置定語的用法與區別。
【對應高考題1】（07全國卷Ⅱ）At the beginning of class, the noise of desks ____ could be heard outside the classroom.
A. opened and closed B. to be opened and closed
C. being opened and closed D. to open and close
答案 C
【解析】：現在分詞作定語，表示主動或正在進行的動作。過去分詞作定語表示被動或完成了的動作。而用being done則表示正在做的被動動作。有時，分詞作后置定語插在句中，前后用逗號隔開，可以把分詞短語改成非限制性定語從句。如：The Olympic Games, (which was)opened in 776B.C,didn’t include women players until 1912.
7 【對應課文】 SB 1 P11 With so many people communicating in English every day, it will become more and more important to have a good knowledge of English.
【對應考點】with的復合結構。
【對應高考題】：(07福建).-Come on, please give me some ideas about the project.
-Sorry. With so much work my mind, I almost break down.
A.filled B.filling C.to fill D.being filled
【解析】with后面跟復合結構，其結構如下：1) with+名詞/代詞+現在分詞。其中現在分詞表主動或正在進行的動作。如：He fell asleep with his radio still working. 2).with+名詞/代詞+過去分詞。其中過去分詞表被動或完成了的動作。如：Tom stood for a moment with his hand still raised.3). with+名詞/代詞+不定式。其中不定式表示將要發生的動作。如：with so much work to do, we can’t kill any time by playing cards.4). with+名詞/代詞+形容詞。如：The girl entered the room with her eyes full of tears.5). with+名詞/代詞+介詞短語或副詞。如：The emperor walked in the street with nothing on.
根據題目中work 和fill 的關系，是表示主動，因此其后要用doing結構。
答案 B
【對應高考題】：(07安徽) John received an invitation to dinner, and with his work ________, he gladly accepted it.
A. finished B. finishing C. having finished D. was finished
【解析】根據work和finish 是被動的關系，可以判斷出來。
答案 A
8 【對應課文】SB 1 P13 For example , the British took “typhoon” from Chinese, while the Americans took “tornado” from Spanish.
【對應考點】：while的特殊含義。
【對應高考題1】 (07山東) I really don’t like art, I find his work impressive.
A．As B．Since C．If D．While
【對應考例2】（07四川）I'd like to study law at university ________ my cousin prefers geography.
A. though B. as C. while D. for
【點撥】while一般作連詞，引導時間狀語從句，意為“當...時候”。而它的特殊含義有：1）作并列連詞，引導兩分句，表示前后對照，意為“而”。 2)引導讓步狀語從句，意為“雖然”或“盡管”，相當于though\although.如：While I admit his good points, I can see his shortcomings. 3)引導條件狀語從句，意為“只要”，相當于so\as long as.如：You will succeed while you double your efforts.
答案 1 D 2 C
超前押題訓練
押題一 從should的用法來命題
命題意圖：情態動詞是歷界高考重點，往往成為高考設置陷阱題時的鎖定目標。不少學生一般只知道should表示“應該”的含義，而忽視了其含義或者其他含義的具體運用。
1-I’ll tell Mary about her new job tomorrow.
-You ______ her last week.
A. ought to tell B. would have told C. must tell D. should have told
解析： D should + have done表示批評責備，過去本應該做而實際上未做。
押題二 從so/nor/neither開頭的倒裝句來命題
1-I would never ever come to this restaurant again. The food is terrible!
-_____.
A. Nor am I B. Neither would I C. Same with me D. So do I
解析：B 以so/nor/neither開頭的倒裝句，在時態、語態、主動詞、情態動詞等謂語形式上要與上文一致，故可排除A,D,選B,也可說It’s the same with me，但不能省略the。
解題技巧梳理
解so/nor/neither倒裝試題時候，首先要搞清楚so/nor/neither所用的場合，再分清所引導的句子何時倒裝，何時不倒裝，最后要特別注意前后時態的一致性和特殊性。例如：If you go to the cinema tonight,so shall I .注意本句時態的運用。由于if引導的條件狀語從句要用一般現在時態代替將來時，所以該從句用go，而不用will go ,但主句卻要用一般將來時，不能用一般現在時，因此后面的so引導的從句要用助動詞shall或will來滿足時態呼應的需要。
知識積累
1 such…that/so…that
such+a(n)+adj+單數名詞+that-clause
such+adj+復數名詞+that-clause
such+adj+不可數名詞+that-clause
so+adj(adv)+that-clause
so+adj+a(n)+名詞+that-clause
so many(few)+可數名詞復數+that-clause
so much(little )+不可數名詞+that-clause
2 與come有關的短語：
come along=come on 過來 come after 跟在后面
come at 襲擊 come down 下來，敗落
come up to 達到 come to a word 碰到一個詞
come into effect 生效 come across sb 偶然碰到
易混易錯研討
1.【誤】These flowers are specially beautiful when they are in full bloom.
【正】These flowers are especially beautiful when they are in full bloom.
【析】specially和especially都表示"專門"、"特別"，修飾動詞或介詞短語時，兩者可以通用，但修飾形容詞或副詞時，要用especially，強調程度。
2. 【誤】We have never seen as beautiful picture as that.
【正】We have never seen as beautiful a picture as that.
【析】as ... as中間的形容詞如果修飾名詞，要將名詞放在不定冠詞之后，一般不可數名詞和復數名詞不用此結構。
3. 【誤】He had such many falls that he was black and blue all over.
【正】He had so many falls that he was black and blue all over.
【析】在含有結果狀語從句的復合句中，
如果主句中名詞前有many, much, little (少), few作定語時，要用副詞so修飾這些形容詞，不可以用such。
4. 【誤】They are so little children that they can not understand what you say sometimes.
【正】They are such little children that they can not understand what you say sometimes.
【析】little在名詞前作定語表示"小"時，用"such little+名詞";若little在名詞前作定語表示"少"時，用"so little+名詞"。
5. 【誤】He said that he had joined the Party in 1995.
【正】He said that he joined the Party in 1995.
【析】在間接引語中有表示過去時間的狀語時，即使主句為一般過去時，從句謂語動詞也用一般過去時，而不用過去完成時。
6. 【誤】I met Mr. Wang in the bus on one day.
【正】I met Mr. Wang in the bus one day.
【析】在表示時間的名詞前有one, some, the other, every, this, that, these或those時，其前不再用任何介詞。
7. 【誤】It is the first time we will visit the Summer Palace.
【正】It is the first time we have visited the Summer Palace.
【析】the first time引導表語從句時，若在is或will be之后作表語，從句用現在完成時；若在was之后作表語，從句謂語用過去完成時。
8. 【誤】If I fail, I'll try the second time.
【正】If I fail, I'll try a second time.
【析】在序數詞前加the時，表示順序，意為"第……"；在序數詞前加a時，表示"又一"、"再一"。
第二部分 研討篇
l 疑難點研討
Chuck learns that we need friends to share happiness and sorrow, and that it is important to have someone to care about.
此句中有兩個that 引導的賓語從句和三個不定式，其中第二個引導詞that 不能省去，第一個不定式表示目的，第二個不定式to have someone to care about 是形式主語it的真正主語；to care about 與前面的someone是動賓關系，但仍用主動形態，其相當于it is important for us to have someone to care about.
第三部分 向導篇
本月原創題解讀
I’d just locked the door ____I realized I had left my key on the kitchen table.
A as B while C when D after
答案 C as 通常表示兩個動作的同時發生，譯為“一邊…一邊…”;while 后面的句子要用延續性動詞；用after 前后語境不符；when 在此相當于just at that time,可譯為“就在這時”。
專家答疑
山東李永問：
“ I don’t enjoy singing, nor do I like computers.”此句中nor是怎樣的用法？
專家答疑：在表示前面提到的情況適用于另外一個人和事物時，用so+do+主語，副詞so表示“同樣，也那樣”，例如：
She is clever, and so is George.
如果表示否定含義，則用neither/nor+do+主語
如：-----I don’t think he’s clever.
-----Neither/Nor do I .
提分訓練
1 ---I would never come to this restaurant again. The food is terrible.
---________.
A Nor am I.
B Neither would I.
C Same with me.
D So do I .
2 ---You forgot your purse when you went out.
----Good heavens,________.
A so do I B so I did C I did so D I so did
3 ---- David has made great progress recently.
-----_______,and _______.
A So he has; so you have B So he has; so have you
C So has he; so have you. D So has he ; so you have.
解析：1 B 本題考查倒裝。以so/nor/neither 開頭的倒裝句子，在時態、語態、助動詞等方面要盡量可能與上文一致。
2 B “so+正裝句”的意思是“是的”，表示同意別人說的話。所提供的情境Good heaven說明自己確定在出門時忘記了帶錢包，所以，回答說：“so I did”. so I did
的意思是“我確實忘記了帶錢包”
3 B So he has 表示同意對方的意見，so have you意為“你也是。”

III. 閱讀理解：
閱讀下列短文，從所給的四個選項（A，B，C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
A
To learn English well you must learn about yourself. You must discover what your own special needs are in English. You should pick out what makes English different from your own language and concentrate on(集中精力) those parts. And above all, you should pick out your own personal weaknesses in English, pick out your own special problems, find out what mistakes you most often make and make a list of them.
It will be best if, in your preparation, you can practise doing all sorts of work that you will be asked to do in examination. You should then make a careful note of any mistakes that you make more than once. Count up how many times you make for each mistake, and the mistake you make most often should be at the top of your list, the next most common in the second place, and so on.
For example, if your native language is Japanese, you may find the problem of articles comes at the top of your list. If you speak German, you may find using some of the conjunctions is your biggest problem. If your mother tongue is French, you find you are always having trouble with some of prepositions. And if Italian is your language, you may constantly forget to use a suitable pronoun when you should.
But these are only examples of mistakes typical of certain languages. They may or may not be your particular personal mistakes. As I say, these personal ones are the most important of all to discover.
36. The most important thing to learn English well is to______.
A.find out the difference between your own language and English
B.discover your own special needs in the language
C.learn about yourself as much as possible
D.pick out your own personal weaknesses in English
37. The writer’s advice to the readers is to______.
A.spend as much time on English as possible B.take examinations of various sorts
C.keep a notebook with the important languages points in it
D.find out their own problems in doing selected exercises
38. The first item on the list should be the mistake you make_______.
A.most often B.many times C.more than more D.very often

You can find language pollution whenever you open a newspaper or turn on your TV set, listen to a popular song at various advertisements. Language pollution exists almost everywhere and can be seen in the following places;
1. Chinese character are written in the complex(復雜的)form.Although simplified(簡單的) Chinese characters were accepted for use many years ago, it seems that more and more people like Chinese characters written in the complex form.
2. Many goods are produced in China but carry foreign names, which sound strange and have no meaning at all.
3. Words and expressions being used have a bad meaning. “Ba”(霸), which means bully(巨大的)in Chinese, is one example. Now there are a lot of goods, restaurants, even factories or firms, with “Ba” in their names.
4. There are too many incorrect grammatical expressions. Some films have strange names and incorrect grammatical structures(結構). “Ai ni mei shang liang”, which means “I love you without consulting”, is grammatically incorrect and this kind of expression is now becoming popular.
Some language experts point out that language pollution must be done away with,which is an idea shared by many others and myself.

D
American and British use different greetings. In the USA the commonest greeting is “Hi”. In Britain it is “Hello!” or “How are you?”. “Hi!” is creeping(不知不覺的)into British, too. When they are introduced to someone, the Americans say, “Glad to know you.” The British say, “How do you do?” or “Pleased to meet you.” When Americans say “Good-bye”, they nearly always add, “Have a good day,” or “Have a good trip,” etc. to friends and strangers alike. Britons are already beginning to use “Have a good day. ”
The British usually use “got”in the sense of “have”. The Americans hardly ever do.
Am.E: Do you have a car, room,etc.?Yes, I do.
Br.E: Have you got a car, room, etc.? Yes, I have.
Finally, there are a number of differences between American and British English in the spelling of words. e.g.check(US)/cheque(UK); center(US)/centre(UK). Many American words ending in “or”, e.g. honor, vigor, labor are spelt in British English with an “Our,” e.g. honour, vigour, labour. Many verbs in American English with “ize”or “izing” forms, e.g. organize, realizing are spelt in Br.E “ise”or “ising”,e.g.organise,realising.In American English, “practice”is used both for the verb and noun.In Br.E, the verb is spelt “practise”, and the noun “practice.” In the main, American English avoids the doubling up of consonants(輔音字母)in nouns and verbs while British English does not.In American English, for example, one writes “travel, traveled, traveling, traveler,” while in British English, one writes “travel, travelled, travelling, traveller”.
It was once predicted that British and American English would became separate languages finally. But the opposite has happened. The links(連接)between the two countries are so strong that linguistically(語言上的), and probably culturally(文化上的)too, they are closer together than ever.
47.The Americans hardly say______.
A.Good-bye.Have a good day! B.Glad to know you! C.Hi! D.Have you got a car?
48. A British writes______.
A.cheque;center B.honor;organise C.traveled;practice D.labour;traveller
49. What does the fifth paragraph talk about?
A. There are lots of differences in spelling between Am.E.nad Br.E.
B.Why do the Americans and the British use different spellings?
C.There are few differences in spelling between AmE.and Br.E.
D. The different usages of words in Am.E and Br.E
50. Which of the following is true?
A.The two languages will become separate languages.
B.American English will be used more and more.
C. The two languages will be closer and closer.
D.British English will be used more and more.
51. The underlined word “predicated” means ______ in Chinese.

[答案與簡析]

If you say no, your host will insist (堅持)that you have more to drink.”
4.“People’s private lives are very important so they never ask you personal questions about your family or where you live or your job. They never talk about religion or matters of finance(財政),education or politics, but usually stay with safe subjects like the weather, films, plays,books and restaurants.”
5.“It’s difficult to know when to leave, but an evening meal usually lasts about three or four hours.When the host serves coffee, this is sometimes a sign that the evening is nearly over, but you can have as much coffee as you want.”
6.“If the invitation says eight o’clcok then we arrive exactly at eight. With friends we know well, we sometimes arrive about fifteen minutes before.”

August 20th Wednesday Sunny
In the summer vacation, my parents and I paid a visit to Beijing-the heart of our country and the great capital of our motherland. We arrived there by air on July 6th.As soon as we got out of the airport, we were struck by the beauty of the city. It was really a wonderful place.
During our stay there, we went to visit a lot of places of interests , such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, Tian’anmen Square, the Palace Museum, the Jingshan Park and so on. I as well as my parents took lots of pictures in order to keep the beautiful impression upon our minds. But I couldn’t spend any time going boating and swimming in the Summer Palace because of the lack of the time.
Two weeks passed before we found ourselves on the way home. Beijing, I love you! I’ll study harder and try my best to gain the chance to go to one of the universities in Beijing in 2008 When the 29th Olympic Games will take place.
專題二ＵＮＩＴ３－４
瞭望新高考
一、新考綱新變化
1 旅行及地震、海嘯等災難經歷是高考中的熱門話題，容易在閱讀理解中出現。
2 so that 引導目的狀語從句和不定式表目的的用法以及與它相關的so…that/in order to/so as to/to do之間的轉換和用法是這幾年高考的趨勢
二、新命題新思路
1 考查means 表示“方法，方式，手段”的用法。因為它的名詞單復數同形的特點而成為了命題者的鎖定對象。其命題角度往往考查其做主語時謂語動詞單復數的選用，也就是主謂一致問題。
2 so that引導目的狀語從句和不定式表目的的用法。而高考的熱點經常是so that/so…that/in order to /so as to /to do之間的轉換和用法
3 before做連詞后接從句的用法。Before/after/when/until/unless/since等連詞引導的狀語從句歷來是高考的熱點。

解題技巧梳理
閱讀理解中猜詞義的方法與技巧 （一）
詞匯（Vocabulary）是閱讀理解測試中非常重要的一項。詞匯題往往要求對文章中的某個單詞、短語甚至句子等找出近義詞或最合適的解釋。一般來說，在文章的閱讀中解決釋義的最好辦法是猜測詞義。猜測詞義也需要一定的技巧，事實上，閱讀材料中的每個詞與它前后的詞語或句子甚至段落有著互相制約的關系。我們可以利用語境（各種已知信息）推測、判斷某些生詞的詞義。
1．定義法（Definition）：利用文章中對詞的定義猜測詞義。 由于作者知道某個詞讀者可能不認識，便在句中給該詞下個定義以幫助讀者理解。下定義是最容易辨認的一種語境線索。定義句的謂語動詞多為：be，mean，deal with，be considered，to be，refer to，be called，be known as，define， represent，signify，constitute等。例如： 1．Anthropology is the scientific study of man．（由定義可知，anthropology就是“研究人類的科學”。） 2．Such experiences are not unusual for the amateur conchologists，people who collect shells．（conchologists的意思可以根據該詞后面的同位解釋“people who collect shells理解為收集貝殼的人或貝殼收藏家。）
知識積累
1 instead of 的相關短語
表示“代替、取代”的詞組有：
instead of /instead/in one’s stead /in place of
1) instead除作“代替 ”解之外，還意為“然而”
2）instead of 除作“代替”解之外，還意為“而不，而沒有”。這時，不能與in place of 替換，但可以與rather than 替換。
They went there by bus instead of (rather than)on foot.
注意：instead of+doing/pron/prep.phrase/n
3）注意和instead 單獨使用用法上的不同，instead 為副詞，一般放在句末，否定上文提到的事物，而instead of則為介詞短語，一般放在句首或句中，否定of后面的賓語。
2 way 的相關短語：
on one’s way to +n 在。。。的路上
on the way+adv 在去。。。的途中
in a way 在某種程度上，有點
in no way 決不
by the way 順便問一下
make one’s way 前進
make way 讓路，開路
lead the way 帶路，領路
feel one’s way 用手摸索著前進
第二部分 研討篇
疑難點研討
The garden that was once so beautiful was completely destroyed ,swept away by the wild water.
that was once so beautiful was completely destroyed是一定語從句，修飾the garden.that 做主語。swept away by the wild water是過去分詞短語做定語，相當于which was swept away by the wild water.
易混易錯研討
1. 【誤】The boy had many difficulty in working out the maths problem.
【正】The boy had much difficulty in working out the maths problem.
【析】difficulty意為"困難"時，相當于trouble，是不可數名詞，其前可以用some, much, little, no, any等修飾，但不可以用many修飾。
2. 【誤】Can you explain me the meaning of the word?
【正】Can you explain to me the meaning of the word?
【析】表示"向某人解釋某事"時，應用explain to sb. sth.或explain sth. to sb.，這一用法與teach, tell, give等動詞之后接雙賓語不同。
3. 【誤】The reason why he was absent was because he was ill.
【正】The reason why he was absent was that he was ill.
【析】表示"……的原因是……"時，應用"The reason...is / was that+主語+謂語+..."這一結構, 不可以把that換成because。
4. 【誤】We saw off her for Shanghai yesterday.
【正】We saw her off for Shanghai yesterday.
【析】see off表示"送行"時，若用名詞作賓語，放在off之后或see與off之間；若用代詞作賓語，必須放在see與off之間。
5. 【誤】Do you think who will win the game?
【正】Who do you think will win the game?
【析】Do you think (believe, suppose) 等后面接疑問代詞或疑問副詞引導的賓語從句時，應把疑問代詞或疑問副詞移至do前。
6. 【誤】The TV play is very popular in young people.
【正】The TV play is very popular with young people.
【析】be very popular表示"很受歡迎"時，與in連用，其后接指地點的名詞；也可以與with連用，其后接指人的名詞。
7. 【誤】The Browns are on their holiday.
【正】The Browns are on holiday.
【析】on holiday意為"在度假"，其中holiday前不能加物主代詞或冠詞。

山東威海歐陽夏丹問：fear,frighten,afraid等詞怎樣區別？
專家解答： 1 動詞“使害怕”中,frighten詞義最廣，terrify詞義最強。指“使極度恐懼”

( A )
One of the mast famous travelers in history was Marco Polo. At the age of 17, he left Italy with his father and uncle. It took them more than three years to cross the mountains of Asia. In the year 1275, they reached China. They stayed in China for almost 20 years and went to many places. They were very surprised at what they saw. China was a country far more advanced than Italy or any other countries in Europe.
After he returned to Italy, Marco Polo told many of his stories to a friend. His book, Description of the World, became the most popular book in Europe. People found it difficult to believe his stories of people, animals, places and things. They were so different from Europe at that time. These are a few of Marco ‘s descriptions.
In one area of China, there were black stones. People dug them out of the mountains. They burned very slowly. People used them to cook and keep their homes warm.
The Chinese people were also very clean. In every town, there were many public baths. Everyone bathed at least three times a week. Rich families built baths in their homes and bathed every day.
China was one of the first countries to use paper money.
On one of his trips in the south of China, Marco Polo saw a strange animal which lived along the rivers. It looked like a large piece of wood and was more than ten feet long. In the front, it had two small legs. Its eyes were very large. Its mouth was big enough to eat a man and its teeth were long.
Most people believed Marco Polo’s stories. But others told him that they did not believe his descriptions. He answered that he did not tell half of what he saw in his book.

Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help to solve one of the country's worst problems--crime (犯罪).
Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes is up and up. And many criminals (罪犯) are young. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all.
There are many young criminals in prison. But prison doesn't change them. Six or seven in ten will go back to crime when they come out of prison.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them grow into men. So Bob Burton started "Vision Quest. "He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons (馬車), 3,000 miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.
The young people in Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It's hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they love their horse. That love can help them to live a new life.
Not all the young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. Three or four in ten will one day be in prison again. Bob Burton is right. Travel can be good for you. Even today, Americans still say, "Go west, young men."
40. In the last paragraph "leave crime behind them" means _________.
A. no longer do a crime
B. leave people who do a crime
C. don't do all the crimes
D. leave criminals behind
41. Why is Bob Burton RIGHT?
A. Because he can help to solve crime.
B. Because three or four is better than six or seven.
C. Because the young criminals have a hard life on the road.
D. Because he can stop crime in the country.
42. From the passage we may infer that __________.
A. getting up before the sun rises can help out of crime
B. we can hardly find a person who has no love for anybody or anything
C. travelling can help all criminals out of prison
D. being brave and strong can do with crime
43. "Vision Quest" ____________.
A. young people have b
