B．includedC．servedD．announced典例C

【点拨】此题用词义辨析法。predict“预言”；include“包括”；serve“提供”；announce“宣布”。根据句意“——打扰了。你们饭店是几点提供晚饭的？——工作日是从6点到9点。”可知用serve符合语境。故选C。2similar/'sɪmɪlə/adj.类似的，相似的eg：Thetwostudentshavesimilarinterests.这两个学生有相似的兴趣。besimilarto与……相似besimilarin在……方面相似eg:Lily’sdressissimilartoLucy’s.莉莉的连衣裙和露西的差不多。Thesetwocarsareverysimilarindesign.这两辆车在设计方面非常相似。考向一OnmyvisittoAustralia,IfeelAustraliansaresimilar________usinmanyways.(三亚)A．with

B．in

C．to

D．at典例C【点拨】考查固定搭配。besimilarto和……差不多(相似)。考向二辨析similar与likesimilar为形容词，指有明显的共同特征，但不完全一致。可作定语和表语。eg:Myideasaresimilartothis.

我的想法与此类似。like作形容词时，意为“类似的”。指人/事物在外貌、性质或特征上非常相似，以致区别不开，但并非同一。此时常作定语。eg:Sherespondedinlikemanner.

她以类似的方式作出了反应。3beusedfor被用于……短语beusedfor中for为介词，表用途，后接名词或动名词，与beusedtodosth.意思相同。eg:Pensareusedforwriting.

＝Pensareusedtowrite.

钢笔被用来写字。考向一考向二辨析beusedfor,beusedby,beusedas,beusedto与usedto词条

用法例句beusedfor“被用来做某事”，后接名词或动词的­ing形式，表示目的或用途。Quiltsareusedforkeepingwarm.被子被用来取暖。beusedby“被……使用”，by后接动作的执行者，强调使用者。Englishisusedbyalargenumberofpeopleallovertheworld.英语被世界上很多人使用。beusedas“被当作……使用”，as是介词，意为“作为”。Theboxisusedasatable.这个箱子被当作桌子来使用。完成句子我哥哥过去常常在周六去钓鱼。Mybrother________________gofishingonSaturdays.(宜宾)典例usedto【点拨】usedto意为“过去常常”。beusedto“习惯于……”，to是介词，后接名词或动词的­ing形式。beusedto后还可以跟动词原形，意为“被用来……”。Heisusedtowalkingaftersupper.

他习惯于晚饭后散步。usedto“过去常常”，表示过去的习惯。后面接动词原形。Sheusedtohavelonghair.她过去留有长发。4Helpyourself.请自便。考向helpyourself意为“随便吃(或用)吧；请自便”，是设宴招待客人时常用的礼貌用语。Helpyourselftosth.表示“请自用……”，其中yourself要随所指的人变化而变化，常用yourself和yourselves这两种形式，其中to是介词，其后接表示食物或饮料等的名词。eg:Helpyourselvestosomesandwiches,children.孩子们，请随便吃些三明治。用所给词的适当形式填空

Kids,help____________(you)tosomefruit.It’sgoodforyourhealth.(扬州)典例yourselves【点拨】此题用寻找题眼法。根据题眼Kids可知面对的

对象是名词复数“孩子们”，故用yourselves。5cross/krɒs/adj.生气的be/getcrosswithsb.意为“生某人的气”，与beangrywithsb.同义；becrosswithsb.atsth.意为“为某事和某人动怒”。eg:Dannyissometimescrosswithhisparentsatsmallthings.丹尼有时因为小事而和他父母生气。考向eg：Iamcrosswithhimforbeinglate.我因他迟到而生气。魔法记忆cross作动词时，意为“穿越；越过”；作名词时，意为“十字架；十字形记号”。拓展一语辨异：Thecrosswomancrossedthestreet.那位愤怒的妇女穿过了马路。根据汉语提示完成句子(1)我们的英语老师因为那个调皮的学生而生气。OurEnglishteacheris________________thatnaughtystudent.(2)他从不为任何事情而和其他人生气。He________never________________otherpeople________anything.典例crosswithisatcrosswith6not...anymore不再……，也可以写为nomore。eg：Youaren’tachildanymore.＝Youareachildnomore.
