二、考點精析與拓展
1. advise; suggest
advise 與suggest 都可作“建議”講，二者用法有同有異。
(1)相同點
表示建議做某事，advise與suggest都可采用下列三種句型:
① + 名詞
② + 動名詞
③ + that從句（從句中常用should加動詞原形，should可以省略。）
eg. He advised/ suggested an early start.
He advised/ suggested (our) starting early.
He advised/ suggested that we (should) start early.
(注：只要是用從句表示建議該做的事，從句中就可用“should+動詞原形”，should可以省略。)上面的第三句可轉化為：
It was suggested that we (should) start early.
What he suggested was that we(should) start early.
His suggestion was that we (should) start early.
(2)不同點
①advise后可以跟人稱代詞作賓語，而suggest后不可以跟人稱代詞作賓語。故可以說：
advise sb. to do sth.; advise sb. against (doing) sth.; advise sb. on/ about sth.; suggest(to sb.)that...
前三種結構中不可將advise改為suggest，如：
他建議我們去參觀博物館。
[正]He advised us to go to visit the museum.
[誤]He suggested us to go to visit the museum.
[誤]He suggested us that we go to visit the museum.
②suggest還有“暗示、表明、說、指出（一個事實）”的意思。此時從句中用陳述語氣，不用虛擬語氣。如：
The smile on his face suggested that he was pleased.
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the patient was seriously ill.(句中suggest陳述了一個事實，故用陳述語氣。)比較：
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the Patient be
operated on at once.(句中suggest表示建議該做某事，從句中用should加動詞原形，should在從句中省略。)
2. except; besides; except for+名詞/except that+句子用法區別。
except 相當于but,表示“除了……以外（不包括在內）”，常與all, nobody,everything,everybody, nowhere等表示整體概念的詞連用。besides相當于apart from，表示“除……以外（尚有）”之義。except for.../except that ...表示“除了……”之意，引述一個相反的原因或細節，因而部分地修正了句中的主要意思。如：Your article is well written except for some grammar mistakes.你的文章寫得好，只是有幾處語法錯誤。
3． in future;in the future; for the future
in future意思是“從今以后”。例如：
In future,be careful with your pronunciation.今后要注意你的發音。
Such a bad habit must be got rid of in future.今后成長須改掉這樣的壞習慣。
in the furture意思是“將來、今后的日期”，但 不一定就是從今立即開始，而是將來的時間。例如：
No one can know what will happen in the future.沒有人知道將來會發生什么事。
My sister wants to be actress in the future.我妹妹將來想當演員。
for the future的意思是“就未來而論、今后”，作“今后”解時可與in future替換使用。例如：
What are your plans for the future when you grow up? 你長大以后對你的未來有什么打算？
For the future, we’ll have to depend on ourselves.今后我們得依靠自己。
4．diet; food
兩者都可作“食物”解。diet指的是習慣上吃的食物或規定要吃的食物，特指維持健康的定量或定質的食物，如病人的療養飲食。food是一般用語。凡能吃喝的具有營養的東西都可稱food.例如：
The Chinese diet is considered to be the healthiest in the world。中國的飲食被認是世界上最健康的飲食。
Proper diet and exercise are both important to health.適當的飲食和鍛煉對健康都很重要。
He is on a special diet to lose weight.他服用特別飲食以減肥。
The doctor put him on a liquid diet after operation.手術之后醫生規定他吃流食。
They eat different kinds of food which change into energy.他們吃的各種各樣的食物都轉化成能量。
His food includes eggs, vegetables, fruit and some soft drinks.他的食物包括雞蛋、蔬菜、水果和一些軟飲料。
5. exmination; exam; test; quiz
examination通常只指正式的“考試”，如期末考試、入學考試等。exam是examination的縮寫，常用于口語，多為學生使用。test為“小考”成“考查”,quiz為“測驗”,特指事先無準備，隨時進行的測驗，也可指（廣播節目中的）一般知識測驗、問答比賽、猜謎等。例如：
He did very well in the entrance examination. 他在入學考試中成績很好。
There’s going to be a physics test this afternoon.今天下午將進行物理考試。
The teacher gave us a five-minute quiz.老師對我們進行了一次五分鐘的小測驗。

三、經典名題導解
題1 （NMET 2002）
Boris has brain. In fact, I doubt whether anyone in the class has _______ IQ.
A. a high B. a higher C. the higher D. the highest
分析：B。higher是形容詞比較級修飾IQ，在此表示“……班上沒有人有更高的智商”，因此是泛指，前面加不定冠詞。
題2 (上海 1996)
I suggest you ________by taking this medicine.
A. to lose weight B. will lose weight
C. lose weight D. are losing weight
分析：C。suggest 后是賓語從句，從句主語you與lose之間省略了 should.
題3 （NMET 1998）
Nobody noticed the thief slip into the house because the lights happened to __________.
A. be put up B.give in C. be turned on D. go out
分析：put up 舉起、搭起、張貼等；give in 投降、屈服；turn on 開、旋開（電燈、自來水等）。go out 為不及物動詞詞組，指“（燈、火等）熄滅”。答案為D。 gone out
When the firemen got there ,the fire had been put out.
救火員到時，火已經熄滅了（撲滅了）。
題4 （NMET 2000春）
John may phone tonight. I don’t want to go out _____ he phones.
A. as long as B. in order C.in case D. so that

題5 (NMET 2000)
I don’t think I’ll need any money but I’ll bring some ______.
A. at last B. in case C. one again D. in time
分析:B。A、B、C、D四個短語意義各不相同，A“最后”；C“再一次”；D“及時”；B“以防；萬一”。從句意來看，應選in case,因為句子暗示“帶一些錢以防（備用）”之意，相當于：I’ll bring some in case I need money.
題6 （NMET 2000）
Someone called me up in the middle of the night, but he hung up ________ I could answer the phone.

Editor:
I could not help wondering why boxing can still be called a sport when I read in China Daily the other day about the death of the boxer Bejines who received a fatal blow in a fight in California.He was only twenty-two years old and his wife was waiting for the birth of the couple’s first child.
I could imagine what a shock it must have been to his wife who will be soon mother of a fatherless child.but I find it hard to imagine how all those people could“enjoy”watching such a fight,it is really a great relief(寬慰)to know that there is no such a thing as boxing in China and I hope that some day in the near future it will disappear everywhere else in the world.
Yours respectfully,
Herma H.Tan

Edgar didn’t have many friends.The reason was he was always taking never giving. People soon get tired of that.
One day Edgar told Bill.I’d like to give a party on Saturday.I’d like you to come and bring Martha,too.
“Thanks,Edgar.We’d be happy to come.”
“Perhaps you’d be willing to sing with your wife at the party.I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us.”
“We’d be glad to sing.We’ll try to learn a few new songs between now and Saturday.We can start practising this evening.”
“Good!Don’t forget to practise‘You Are My Sunshine’.That’s the one I like best.I want you to be sure to sing that one.”
That was how Edgar began to plan his party.Next he asked another friend,Betty,to bring a cake.“You make the best cake in the world,Betty,and I’d rather eat your cake than have one from the store.”

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday.The announcement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00.Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately,the theater is on the other side of the town,and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good.But if you are lucky,you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.Last Monday,I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus.By the time I saw one come around the corner,there was not enough time left to make the trip….So I gave up and went back to the office.The same things happened on Tuesday,and again on Wednesday.On Thursday,my luck changed.I got on a bus right away and arrived at theater in exactly twenty minutes.When I got there,however,I found a long line of people at the box office.I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour.Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line.I caught the next bus and headed back across the town.By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi.It was expensive,but I felt it would be worth in to hear the concert.The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes,but it felt like an hour to me.When I got to the theatre,I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.The reason,I quickly discovered,was that they had already sold all the tickets.
61. He learned_______that there would be a concert last Friday.
A.from his friend B.from one of his colleagues
C.cover the radio D.from the newspaper
62. He tried to go to the theater every day but only managed to get there_______.
A.once B.twice C.three times D.four times
63. One day the writer took_______to get to the theater by bus.
A.forty five minutes B.fifteen minutes
C.exactly twenty minutes D.over an hour
64. The work“relieved”in the last sentence may best be replaced by_______.
A.surprised B.pleased C.puzzled D.sorry
65. A.The story is about_______.
A.a good concert

Guinness Book of World Records is a world famous collection of world records in human life,including all specific skills.
How the book came out is an interesting story.On Nov.10,1951,an Englishman,Sir Beveagh,was having a discussion with his friends.They couldn’t agree with each other whether the falcon(獵鷹)flew quickest among all birds in Europe,and they failed to find the answer in any books.He knew that there must be many such problems in the world.Why not publish a useful book to provide the answers to all these problems?
In 1954,Beveagh decided to work for it.He asked for help from two friends who owned an information supply centre in London.They put together(編成)the first edition(版)of Guinness Book of Would Records in August,1955.The book had only 197 pages,but it was a great success.It was well received by readers and immediately won the No.1 best-seller in Britain.
The book of records has been renewed each year,and has been bought and enjoyed in 141 countries around the world.The 262 editions and 35 languages it has used may be a record itself.
