1、Test TwentyFive近义词辨析source, origin, root, resource这组词均含有“打破”或“挤碎”的意思。source和origin都表示某事的“起源，开端”。source原指河流的源头，其引申义可用来指某事物的最初来源或出处，在指非物质或无形的事物时尤其如此。source还常指消息等的“来源，出处”。origin常译为“起源，发源，起因”，指导致某事物最后出现或形成的因素，或某事物在遥远的空间以外或久远的年代以前的最初形态，常表示某种历史文化现象、风俗习惯的“起源”，有时可译为“起因”。root的意义是“根源，起因”，它强调导致某事物最终出现的最初的、最根本的

2、、最重要的原因，由此所产生的现象或事物常成为一种外观的产物。resource主要指一个国家或地区可以取用的“资源，财力，资产”，一般以复数形式出现。resource也可指人在处理问题时所表现出的“才智，机敏”，此时resource为不可数名词。Literature is a source of endless pleasure to many thousands.文学是很多人快乐的无尽源泉。Do you know the origin of the custom of giving presents at Christmas?你知道在圣诞节互赠礼品这一风俗的来源吗?The root of th

15、istic about the economic _ for Europe.A. outlookB. insightC. opinionD. attitude试题答案与解析1 A)【句意】他尽管学识渊博，但始终很谦逊。【难点】句型“for all +ones+名词或从句”以及“with all (ones+名词或从句)”为习惯性用语，常用来表示让步状语， for all或with all 相当于in spite of all，意为“尽管，虽然”。2 D)【句意】他的诚实是无可怀疑的，没有人能怀疑这一点。【难点】without question 意为“无可怀疑的”。in question 意为“

16、在考虑中的，在议论中的”。out of question 意为“不成问题”。beside the question 无此搭配。3 A)【句意】烹饪一道好菜时，必须考虑使用这种调料。【难点】由时间状语中的a delicious dish 可以看出，此句意在说明一个普遍的事实，而不是特指烹饪某一道菜，所以无须使用过去时，而只需使用表示普遍情况的一般时。4 B)【句意】直到他开始以钓鱼为乐，他才开始得到了轻松的休息。【难点】此句为强调句，所强调的时间状语从句部分的动作几乎和主句的动作同时发生，时间状语从句的谓语动词为过去时，因而主句的谓语动词采用过去时便可。5 D)【句意】不仅你，我也在这点上犯了错

17、误。【难点】按照英语语法，由not onlybut also构成的主语，其谓语动词应按照就近关系，因此此句只能选择D)。6 D)【句意】二十镑足够这样一个贫困的家庭花一个月了。【难点】表示时间度量等复数名词作主语时，常常作为一个整体看待，谓语动词用单数。7 C)【句意】校长与系主任正打算召开一次会议，以制定一系列规章制度。【难点】由“together with (as well as, but, including) +名词”构成的介词短语来修饰主语的句子，其谓语动词必须与主语保持一致，而无须考虑以上介词的宾语的单复数形式。8A)【句意】许多人站在百货大楼的门前。【难点】many a +可数名

18、词的单数形式意为“许多”，后面的谓语动词必须使用单数形式。9 D)【句意】“我按时到了办公室。”“假如你的车坏了会怎么样?”【难点】what if 意为“倘使将会怎样”，由其构成的虚拟条件句通常用过去时表示将来，用过去完成时表示过去时，本句意在表达与过去事实相反，所以条件句子中谓语动词必须采用D)。10 D)【句意】如果那时天气更好一点的话，现在庄稼长得会更好。【难点】此句为一错综时间条件句。本句中的从句表达与过去事实相反的一个假设，按照常规虚拟语气句的要求，主句中的谓语动词应为would have grown，表达与过去事实相反；但主句实际要表达的是与现在事实相反，所以谓语动词应为would

19、 be growing。11 D)【句意】在冷冻法发明前，鱼和肉的保存是个棘手的问题。【难点】preservation 意为“保存，防腐”；keeping 意为“保存；保留”，maintaining 意为“维持；保持；使继续；”protection意为“保护，防护”。12 B)【句意】有东西突然一动，引起了小马的注意，他立刻警觉起来，变得多疑。【难点】suspicious 意为“猜疑的，多疑的”，后接of， about ;doubtful 意为“不确知的；怀疑的”，常与about 和of连用； suspecting和hesitating是现在分词，不合本句句意。13 B)【句意】学生实习当老师

20、的第一年，常常参观当地学校，观察课是怎么上的。【难点】observation意为“观察；监视”；investigation 意为“调查，调查研究”；inspection 意为“检阅，检查”；observance意为“观察，注意”，不常用。14 D)【句意】我很高兴你同意调查这件事。【难点】look into 意为“调查”；look up 意为“(在词典，参考书中）查找”； look for 意为“寻找”；look over 意为“查看，参观”。15 B)【句意】由于医院停电，那位外科医生不得不取消手术。【难点】call off 意为“取消”；call for 意为“需要，需求”；call on
