1. That's because of hard work ——ten years of hard work.

那是因为劳累——10年劳累的缘故。

because of为介词词组，后面跟名词、代词或动名词。e. g.

①Because of his bad leg,  he couldn't walk so fast as the others.

因为他的腿有毛病，他不能和别人走得一样快。

②I said nothing about it,  because of his wife's being there.

我对这事一字未提，因为他的妻子在那里。

 

词语辨析

because,  because of

because of为介词，后面不加从句；而because为连词，后接原因状语从句，着重说明原因，常回答why的问题。e. g.

I can't do it now because I'm busy now.  我现在不能做，因为我很忙。

 

联想迁移

表示“因为，由于”的词还有since,  thanks to,  as等。

(1)since作连词时，表示“因为，既然”，与because意义相近，但有时其引导的从句不是根本或直接原因。e. g.

①Since we have no money,  we cannot buy it.

因为我们无钱，我们不能买它。

②You might as well stay since you have taken the trouble to come.

你既然费许多事来了，那就留下吧。

(2)as作连词，可表示理由，说明一般的因果关系，语气比because稍弱。e. g.

As it is wet,  we have to put off our trip to the Great Wall.

因为下雨，我们的长城之游只好延期。

(3)thanks to 为介词词组，表示“由于，幸亏”，暗含“感谢”之意。e. g.

Thanks to your advice,  much trouble was saved.

幸亏有你的建议，省了许多麻烦。

 

2. We'd been invited to a ball at the palace so I needed to borrow some jewellery .

我们被邀请去参加一个宫廷舞会，因此我需要一些珠宝。

jewellery也可写作jewelry,  为不可数名词，是“珠宝”的总称，如：a piece of jewellery 一件珠宝， some jewellery 一些珠宝。

 

联想迁移

jewel指“宝石、珠宝”，为可数名词，如：valuable jewels值钱的珠宝。它也可引申为“被珍视的东西或人”。e. g.

His wife is a jewel.  他的妻子是他所珍爱的人。

 

3. She married a man with a lot of money.  她嫁给了一个很有钱的男人。

(1)marry 为及物动词，作“嫁，娶”解，后接宾语，也有“与……结婚”的意思，但只能说marry sb,  而不说marry with sb。 e. g.

Mary married a Frenchman.  玛丽嫁给了一个法国人。(玛丽与一个法国人结婚了)

(2)作不及物动词，意思是“结婚”。e. g.

The scientist didn't marry until forty.  那位科学家到四十岁才结婚。

(3)marry 作动词时为非延续性动词，不能和一段时间连用，但如用be/get married 结构时则可。e. g.

They have married for ten years.  (误)

They have been married for ten years.  (正)他们已结婚十年了。

(4)另外，be/get married可接介词短语to sb。 e. g.

She was/got married to doctor.  她嫁给了一个医生。

married在此为表语形容词，表示一种状态。表示某人是否结了婚时，应用Is she married? 而不能用Has she married?

 

4. You tried it on and it looked wonderful on you.

你把项链戴上试了试，戴在你身上真是太好看了。

try on作“试穿(戴)”解，后接宾语，如代词作宾语时，常用try it(them) on。e. g.

①Never buy shoes without trying them on first. 鞋子不先试穿就不要买。

②Will you go to the clothes shop to have a suit tried on?

你可以去服装店试穿一套衣服吗?

 

5. …that the necklace was not around my neck any more.

……项链已不再在我脖子上了。

not . . .  any more 用于否定句，表示“不再……”。e. g.

You mustn't think about it any more.  你不要再考虑这件事了。

 

6. It was worth five hundred francs at the most.  它最多值500法郎。

worth为形容词，表示“值(多少钱)，值得……”，常用于(be) worth sth/doing sth结构中。worth后面的动名词总是用主动形式表达被动意义。e. g.

①The necklace is worth four hundred dollars. 这条项链值四百元。

②The museum is worth visiting. 那个博物馆值得参观。

③Don't lock the door; it isn't worth it. 别锁门了，不值得锁。

 

词语辨析

worth,  worthy

 

(1)这两个词均为形容词，均可表示“值得的”。但worth后接名(代)词或动名词，而worthy 后面则接“of + 名词”或接不定式，of后的名词一般只表示事情，不表示价值、价钱。e. g .

①He is a writer worthy of the name. 他是一位名副其实的作家。

②John is a man who is worthy to have a place in the team.

约翰是一位在队里值得占有一席之地的人。

 

(2)当worthy后面的不定式的逻辑主语是动作的对象(承受者)时，就要用worthy to be done 形式，而不能用主动形式。e. g.

The novel is worthy to be read.  /The novel is worth reading.

这本小说值得一读。

 

7. . . . with a belt and a name card on it. ……上面有一根带子和一张名片。

“介词with + 名词 + 介词短语”构成的复合结构，在句中多用作方式状语，表示伴随的动作或状态。e. g.

The teacher came into the classroom,  with a book under his arm.

老师走进教室，胳膊下夹着一本书。

 

1. Do you remember one afternoon ten year ago when I came to your house and borrowed a necklace of yours?

10年前的一个下午，我到你家借过一条项链，你记得吗?

句中关系副词when引导的定语从句修饰先行词one afternoon,  ten years ago是定语，也是修饰one afternoon的。一般说来，定语从句要紧跟在先行词之后，但有时根据需要定语从句和先行词被其他成分隔开，这种定语从句叫做分隔定语从句。e. g.

There are thousands of stars in the sky that are like our sun.

天空中有成千上万颗像太阳一样的恒星。

 

2. That's why I now look so old.

这就是我为什么现在看起来这么老的原因。

由疑问词why引导的名词从句在句中作表语。why作“为什么，……的原因”解(the reason  why)。e. g.

That's why he was punished. 那就是他为什么受到惩罚的原因。

其他疑问词如what,  when,  where等也可以引导名词从句，在连系动词后作表语。e. g.

①That was when I was thirteen. 那是我13岁时的事。

②That's what I'm looking for. 那就是我正在找的东西。

 

3. Can't you just wear a flower instead?难道不可以就戴朵花吗?

这是一个否定疑问句，通常译成：“难道……吗?”否定疑问句可以表示对某事没有做或没有发生而感到吃惊。这种吃惊听起来可能含有批评或责难的意思。

Hasn't Albert telephoned yet? 阿伯特还没有打电话来吗?

It's getting dark.  Can't you walk a little faster?

天快黑了，你不能走快点吗?

 

 

 

阅读下面短文，回答文后题目

The idea of fighting noise by making more noise sounds strange,  but that's exactly what motor engineers are doing in Germany and some other countries.

Carmakers' research and development laboratories have already proved that mixing  in more noise with the help of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noise.

Physicists have known about the technique for a long time.  Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air.  If two sound waves of the same frequency(频率) are mixed that the highest point of one wave happens at the same time with the lowest point of the other wave,  the result is no sound.  Therefore,  by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a wave cycle (周期),  we can kill the unwanted noise.  Using this technique many carmakers are racing to develop noise killing systems both inside and outside the cars.

Another good thing about the use of noise killing systems is that it saves the need for a silencer,  which not only reduces the weight of a car,  but also makes the motor burn less oil and work better.

Some engineers believe that the noise killing system will be used in most cars in 1996.  But the car makers haven't decided if they will put it into production because it would add several hundred dollars to the cost of their cars.

 

1. Which of the following gives a general idea if how the noise killing system works?

A. by producing pressure waves going in the opposite direction.

B. By mixing high frequency sound waves with low frequency sound waves.

C. By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little later.

D. By mixing new sound waves with the noise and sending them out together

解析  这是一道细节题，最佳答案为C。第三自然段的段落大意可以帮助考生理解什么是消音装置，而by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a way cycle 便是对答案的释义。

 

2. Besides its main function(功能) the noise killing system can          . 

A. make a car lighter.                       B. make a car quieter.

C. reduce the cost of a silencer.           

D. improve the performance of a silencer

解析  这是一道细节题。只要考生抓住第四自然段中which not only reduces the weight of a car,  but also makes the motor burn less oil and work better 这一关键信息，便能得出A为最佳答案。

 

3. The noise - killing system is not yet popular mainly because          .

A. it increases the cost of car production.

B. carmakers are not sure if it is necessary.

C. it is still being tried out.

D. people still have their doubts.

解析  这是一道细节题，A为最佳答案。文章结尾的一句话便是正确答案的相应信息。

例1  He           the doctor's advice to give up smoking.

A. has received        B. is taken        C. has accepted        D. has  got

精析  receive,  get都可表示“收到”，强调客观，并不涉及主观上是否愿意接受。accept 是“接受；答应”，主要表示主观上的同意接受，着重主语的态度。

答案  C

 

例2  I don't think Peter is too young to take care of the pet dog          .

A. correctly          B. properly         C. exactly          D. actively

精析  本题考查副词词义辨析，correctly与“错误地”相对，意思是“正确地”；actively意思是“活跃地”；exactly是“确切地，恰好地”；properly是“适当地，完全地”，依句意选properly。

答案  B

 

例3  -What do you think of the book?

  -Oh,  excellent.  It's worth           a second time.

A. to read          B. to be read          C. reading          D. being read

精析  worth是表语形容词，后接名词或v. -ing形式，不可以接不定式，其中接v. -ing主动形式表示被动含义，修饰词用well而不可用very。

答案  C

 

1. The weather turned out to be very good,            was more than we could expect .  (NMET 94,  39)

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

解析  答案B，该题考查定语从句关系代词的使用。which在非限制性定语从句中代替前面整个句子的意思。如果这两个分句and连接，则C、D也可用。What一般不引导定语从句。

 

2. They were all very tired,  but          of them would stop to take a rest.  (NMET9 5,  17)

A. any            B. some            C. none            D. neither

解析  答案C，该题考查不定代词。该题有两个信息词需要注意“all”和“but”。All 暗示不是两个人，故排除D；由“…都很累”“但是没有一个人肯停下来休息一下。”故A、 B不合题意。故选C，顺理成章。

 

3. I hope there are enough glasses for each guest to have          .  (NMET95,  22)

A. it            B. those            C. them            D. one

解析  答案D，该题考查代词的替代作用。该题的关键词是“each”。one表示泛指前面所说的那类事物中的任何一个“即one of the glasses”。根据题意：“我希望有足够的玻璃杯，以使每位客人有一个。”故选D最佳。

4. -When shall we meet again?

  -Make it           day you like; it's all the same to me.  (NMET96, 7)

A. one            B. any            C. another            D. some

解析  答案B，该题考查代词在具体语境中的运用。考生可根据you like,  it's all the same to me这个信息句，可推断出应用any“任何”一天，而one day“某一天”可用于将来时，也可用于一般过去时。当它用于将来时，可与some day互换。Another day“另一天”，不符合题意。

 

5. Tom felt that he knew everybody's business better than they knew it          . (NMET96,  12)

A. themselves          B. oneself          C. itself          D. himself

解析  答案A，该题考查反身代词。themselves是they的反身代词作其同位语。

 

1. -I don't think I know you.

阅读理解

The nervous-looking young man had waited for a few moments-outside the jeweller's before he got enough courage to enter.  He was warmly greeted by a young assist ant.  James felt a rush of blood to his face as he explained he would be bringing  in his future wife to choose a birthday present.  The assistant listened carefully and told him he'd better buy a necklace.  He wasn't used to buying jewellery and was a little worried about overspending.  After some discussion as to a reasonable price and the type,  the assistant showed him dozens of necklaces and helped  him to choose.  At last James chose one and left the shop promising to return at  five o'clock.  When,  half an hour later than planned,  James did return to the shop with his future wife,  Laura,  the assistant acted as if she had never seen him  before.  When she was asked to show them some necklaces,  she first brought out some inexpensive ones for them to choose,  and then gave them the one she had prepared.  A choice was soon made and they went away satisfied.  James would certainly come back to buy what he wanted when he got worried.
