名师随堂解题
［基础题］
★例１This book _________ forty maps, ___________ three of Great Britain.
A. contained; included B. is containing; including
C. includes; contains D. contain; including.
导析：contain意思是“包含，含有，容纳”。侧重“某一范围中包含哪些内容，某种物质中含有某种成分或某一容器和空间容纳某物。”contain不用于进行时态。Include强调某事物中包括哪些组成部分。常用它的分词短语形式作定语。本题The book中“含有四十幅地图”， 侧重的是内容；其中的三幅英国地图是四十幅图中的一部分。因为逻辑主语 “forty maps与include three of Great Britain.”之间是主动关系，因此应当使用表主动关系的现在分词。故选D。 答案：Ｄ
★★例２The guide suggested _______ to the Great Wall tomorrow.
A. to us a visit B. us visiting C. us a visit D. we should visit
导析：此句的意思是“导游建议我们明天参观一下长城。”在做题时，除了注意suggest的用法：suggest doing ; suggest sb should do sth；suggest sth to sb或suggest to sb sth(向某人建议某事)，还要注意visit的用法：visit是及物动词，后面直接跟表示地点的名词，故可排除答案B，D，而visit用做名词时，表示参观某地或某物时，后应加to。故选A。答案：A
★★例3 You are seriously ill. You ________ stay in bed for a few days.
A. would better B. would C. had better D. would prefer
导析：本句的意思是“你病的很严重，最好卧床休息几天。”四个选项中只有would better具有迷惑性，英语中没有这个习语。表示建议“最好”如何做时，应当用“had better”。would表示 “愿意”。Would prefer表示两者中比较更喜欢做…。答案：C
［易错题］
★★例4 In order to avoid ________ overweight, you’d better take _____ regularly.
A. become, exercise B. becoming, exercises C. becoming, exercise D. to become, exercise
导析：avoid避免发生某事，avoid后必须接动词的ing形式。exercise泛指体育锻炼时是不可数的。指“练习题” 或 “体操” 时是可数的。 答案：A
★★例5 Billy was the youngest boy on the hike, he found it difficult to_____the rest of the class.
A. keep in with B carry on with C. keep up with D. go on
导析：本题是指Billy由于年龄小而在步行野营训练时跟不上其他同学。选项中的keep up with…就相当于keep pace with…表示 “跟上, 及时了解，不落在…后面”。符合句意。Keep in with 表示“不得罪…”。如：You’d better keep in with Mr. Parson, for he is our manager. Carry on with 表示“把…继续下去”。如：After his father died, Bob carried on with the business. “go on with”表示继续做…，如: My father went on with his paper after a short rest. 答案：C
★★例6 _________ succeed in doing anything.
A. Only by working hard we can B. By only working hard we can
C. Only by working hard can we D. Only we can by working hard
导析:only 强调状语（介词短语，状语从句， 副词）放在句首，句子要部分倒装。需要将助动词,情态动词和be动词提到主语的前面。因此C为正确选项。
答案C
★★★例7 Tom’s father is not ______satisfied with his study, for he does very poorly in it.
A. a bit B. a little C. a bit of D. a little of
导析：not a bit = not at all , not a little = very根据句意，“汤姆的父亲对他的学习一点都不满意，因为他的成绩很差。” 故选A。在此要注意a bit 和a little的用法：1)当用于肯定句中，修饰形容词、副词时。二者可互换使用。2) 用于否定句时，not a bit = not at all , not a little = very或 much。3)a bit of 后直接加不可数名词，如：a bit of ink; a little后接不可数名词， 如：a little ink.4) a little of后接特指的不可数名词，如: Could you lend me a little of your money? 答案：A
★★例8 The doctor ordered him a _______ without sugar.
A. fruit B. food C. vegetable D. diet
导析:diet指人或动物的某类饮食，或适合病人吃的某种特殊饮食。既可作可数名词，也可做不可数名词使用。常用习语有： go on a diet,开始节食，on a diet正在节食。Food指食物，食品时是不可数名词。用作可数名词时指某种食物。如：Hardly any fried foods agree with me now.各种油炸食品我都不太适应。答案D
［高考题］
★★例9Why don’t you put the meat in the fridge? It will _______ fresh for several days.（2003年全国高考题）
A. be stayed B. stay C. be staying D. have stayed
导析：stay此处是系动词,意思是”保持”。类似stay, keep, remain等系动词没有进行时，也不用于被动语态。答案Ｂ

III. 阅读理解：
A
Hunger is on the rise again after falling steadily(稳定的) during the first half of the 1990s, according to a report by the U.N. food agency(机构).
Nearly 850 million people go to bed hungry every night. In Asia and Africa the number of people in the developing world who are suffering hunger is climbing at a rate of almost 5 million a year. It is very hard for the U.N. to cut in half the number of the hungry people by 2015. The Food and Agriculture Organization said it is time for nations to examine why hundreds of millions of people go hungry in a world that produces more than enough food for every man, woman and child. Bluntly stated(坦率地说), the problem is not so much a lack of food as a lack of political will.
Except when wars or natural disasters sometimes affect developing countries, "little is said and less is done" to end the trouble of the 798 million people in the developing world who suffer from hunger .
On the good news side, 19 countries have reduced the number of hungry people since 1990-1992 by a total of over 80 million. China reduced the number of hungry people by 58 million from 1990-1992, but progress has slowed. By contrast(相比而言), India reduced the number of hungry people by 20 million between 1990-1992 and 1995-1997, but it reduced the number of hungry people by 19 million over the following four years.
36. What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. the food problem B. natural disasters C. wars D. the development of poor countries
37. According to the passage, during 1991-1995, the number of hungry people was _______.
A. rising B. the same as before C. falling steadily D. sometimes falling and sometimes rising
38. The food problem is becoming more serious now, mainly because of ___________.
A. a lack of food B. a lack of governmental attention C. years of wars D. natural disasters

VI.作文参考答案：
A school did a research on the effects that a good breakfast made on students. The school study showed that students with a good breakfast every morning, which contained eggs, bread, milk and so on were healthier than those without breakfast. They grew faster and were less likely to put on weight and get ill. By eating breakfast every morning, the students could feel alive and quick in the morning’s work at school. They were full of energy and could focus their attention easily for a long time. Their scores in the tests were much higher than those of the students who went to school without breakfast. Compared with the students with a good breakfast every day , the students without breakfast were less active and more easily to get tired in sports. They couldn’t run as fast as those with breakfast. From the research we can see breakfast plays an important part in our life. It not only affects our health but also study and work, even our feelings. Let’s prepare ourselves a good breakfast every day to keep fit.
