答案與精析:
1.1) frightened 2) afraid 3) afraid 4) frightened
frightened 指突如其來(lái)的"震驚"。既可作表語(yǔ),又可作定語(yǔ)。 afraid 多用于習慣地、經(jīng)常地"懼怕"某些事,泛指一種恐懼心理,只能作表語(yǔ),不能作定語(yǔ)。
2. 1) None 2) None 3) no one
none 與 no one 都可表示"沒(méi)有人"。none可以用于人,也可以用于物,意思是"一個(gè)人也沒(méi)有或沒(méi)有任何東西"。 no one 只能用于人,意思是"誰(shuí)也不,沒(méi)有人",口語(yǔ)中常用,而且比none的意味強得多。none作主語(yǔ)時(shí),它后面的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數或復數形式都可以,如強調整體情況,多用單數形式,如強調個(gè)體時(shí),多用復數形式。no one 作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多用單數形式;卮餳ow many 或how much問(wèn)句用none; 回答who問(wèn)句用no one 或nobody。
3. 1) true 2) real 3) true
real 表示"真的","真實(shí)的","名副其實(shí)的",指的是客觀(guān)存在,并非想象和虛構的,它是與"無(wú)"相對而言的。true是指"真正的","真實(shí)的",強調與事實(shí)和實(shí)際情況相符。它是與"假"相對而言的。
4. 1) found 2) found 3) founded
found 既是不規則動(dòng)詞的find 的過(guò)去式和過(guò)去分詞,本身又是一個(gè)動(dòng)詞原形,意思是"建立"。founded 為規則動(dòng)詞found 的過(guò)去式和過(guò)去分詞。
5. 1) heard from 2) heard of 3)heard about / heard of
hear of 指聽(tīng)別人說(shuō)起或提及某人或某事,即間接"聽(tīng)說(shuō)"。hear about表示"聽(tīng)到......的詳情",常與hear of 換用。hear from "收到......的來(lái)信或信息",介詞賓語(yǔ)可以是人或地方。
6. 1) Thanks to 2) Thanks for 3) thanks to
thanks to意思是"多虧"、"由于"。這個(gè)短語(yǔ)多表達一種原因。作狀語(yǔ)時(shí),可位于句末,也可位于句首。thanks for是一個(gè)客套用語(yǔ),意為"因......而感謝",這里thanks可改為thank you。
