a. you can increase your happiness levels by attending the classes at the happiness institute. b. most of us are happier than our parents or grandparents since we earn more. c. earning us$100 more than your wifes sisters husband if you want to be happy. d. bill gates and kerry packer are referred to as examples of those who are extremely rich but obviously unhappy. 2. the underlined phrase has the same meaning as the word_. a. healthyb. unhealthyc. freed. wealthy3. the author wrote the passage to tell us_. a. happiness is everythingb. wealth is the foundation of happinessc. to have fun at the happiness instituted. money doesnt always mean happiness(b)one-hundred-and-seventh birthdays arent usually celebrated for authors who arent alive anymore. but theodor seuss geiselbetter known as the childrens books author dr. seusswho came into the world on 2 march, 1904, was an unusual man. like generations of children i was raised on his wonderful stories. but when i now read them to my children its not just the childhood memories i enjoy. his writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a shakespeare poem. readers ride his characteristic rhythm with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer: you have brains in your headyou have feet in your shoesyou can steer yourself any direction you chooseand will you succeed? yes indeed, yes indeed! ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed. seusss brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they appeal most to children of course. his stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways. the first seuss book i was given was the lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”. its not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but its also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. its not. ” this is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want. i could go on, but hey, its a birthday, and im sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party. . . 4. whats the purpose of this passage? a. to introduce dr. seusss life. b. to analyse dr. seusss books. c. to describe dr. seusss writing style. d. to celebrate dr. seusss achievements. 5. why does the author include dr. seusss poem? a. to encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way. b. to give readers a sample of seusss story the lorax. c. to provide readers with an example of seusss writing style. d. to explain how relevant seusss stories remain today. 6. why do adults also enjoy seusss books? a. his words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all. b. his books give children obvious moral messages to learn from. c. he writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children. d. he was the first person to write about the environment. 7. which of the following is true about seuss? a. many of the issues he discussed attracted greater concern in later years. b. he is widely considered as the twentieth-century shakespeare. c. his books are more popular now than when they were first published. d. most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand. 答案解析. 1. assistant 2. adapted3. matured4. severe5. allocated 6. accomplish7. vivid8. surrounded9. adequate10. admirable. 1.【解析】选d。考查非谓语动词和with结构。句意：被警告晚上在街上有危险，她不得不由一位朋友陪着回家。主语she与warn之间是被动关系，应用过去分词；在“with +宾语+宾补”结构中，friend与作宾补的动词accompany之间是主动关系，用现在分词。故答案选d。2.【解析】选c。句意：你进来时我们正要给你打电话。be on the point of doing sth. 正要做某事，即将做某事。when在此处是并列连词，相当于and at this/ that time。【变式备选】im disappointed with the officer elected in our town. i am too, but theres no point_about it. a. we worry b. in worryingc. to worryd. with us worrying【解析】选b。there is no point (in) doing sth. 意为“做某事没意义”。类似表达还有：there is no use / harm/ hurry. . . + (in) doing sth. 。3.【解析】选b。考查动词辨析。句意：新来者觉得很难让他们自己适应潮湿的天气。suit适合，使相称；adapt oneself to使自己适应；regulate调节，控制；coordinate使协调。【变式备选】the old couple decided to _ a boy and a girl to accompany them. a. adaptb. bringc. receive d. adopt【解析】选d。考查动词辨析。句意：这对老夫妇决定收养一个男孩和一个女孩来陪伴他们。adapt适应，改编；bring带来；receive收到；adopt收养，领养，采用，采纳。4.【解析】选d。考查短语辨析。句意：这座岛屿位于福建沿海，除了一个中国地标和树木之外一片荒芜。rather than而不是；instead of代替，而不是；as well as也，和；apart from除之外，远离，且不说。【知识拓展】as well as用法三原则(1) as well as可以用来连接两个相同的成分，如名词、代词、形容词、动词、介词，通常不位于句首。此时，as well as连接的虽然是两个并列成分，但强调的重点在前面，不在后面，意思为“不但而且”、“既又”、“除了之外，还有”。翻译时要先译后面，再译前面。例如：living things need air and sunlight as well as water. 生物不仅需要水，还需要空气和阳光。(连接名词)she helped tom as well as i. =she and i helped tom. 我帮了汤姆的忙，她也帮了汤姆的忙。(连接主格代词)she helped tom as well as me. =she helped tom and me. 她帮了我的忙，也帮了汤姆的忙。(连接宾格代词)she continued her own work as well as helped me. 她除了帮助我，还继续自己的工作。(连接动词)he calculates the mass of the material before, as well as after experiments. 他不但在实验后，还在实验前计算材料的质量。(连接介词短语)the child is lively as well as healthy. 这孩子既健康又活泼。(连接形容词)(2)用作介词此时，as well as相当于besides，in addition to，意思为“除之外”，后面通常接名词或动词，尤其是位于句首时。as well as/besides/in addition to eating five-course meals, they drank seven bottles of wine. 除了五道菜外，他们还喝了七瓶酒。(3)well用于as. . . as的结构中这种as well as结构表示比较，引导一个比较状语从句，意为“和一样好”。例如：he can operate the machine as well as i do. 他操纵这台机器和我一样熟练。5.【解析】选d。考查固定搭配。feel caught between意为“对感到左右为难”。6.【解析】选a。考查定语从句。句意：我确实非常爱我妈妈，但是情况发展到这样一种程度：她甚至不想让我看到她以前的样子。当先行词是point，case，situation等时，定语从句多用where引导，where在从句中作状语。【变式备选】the treatment will continue until the patient reaches the point_ he can walk correctly and safely. a. whenb. wherec. whichd. whose【解析】选b。考查定语从句。表示“阶段、程度、地步”的the point在定语从句中作地点状语，所以用where引导定语从句。7.【解析】选c。考查非谓语动词。句意：这个到2015年竣工的工程将大大扩展这个城市的电话网络。动词不定式的被动形式表示“将要被”，作project的定语。8.【解析】选c。考查时态。句意：我们讨论一下昨晚提出的问题，好吗？没必要那么急。我正要去参加一个会议。head for表示“朝着前进，走去”，此处是进行时表将来。9.【解析】选a。考查名词辨析。句意：经理需要一个能在自己离开时可以被指望解决问题的助手。assistant助手；consultant顾问；conductor指挥, 售票员；expert专家。10.【解析】选b。考查动词短语。句意：我把所有的口袋都翻遍了，就是找不到我的钥匙。go after追求；go through检查, 经历；go against违背；go ahead开始, 进行。11.【解析】选d。考查形容词辨析。句意：由地方政府公布的数字表明，这个地区仍然缺乏足够的教学资源。unique独特的；essential基本的，必要的；natural自然的；inadequate不足的。根据句意可知答
