3．(2011年江苏盐城模拟)________ herself with routine office tasks，she had no time to attend to her children.
A．Occupying B．Occupied
C．Being occupied D．To be occupied
解析：选A。occupy oneself with sth./in doing sth.忙于(做)某事，在句中occupy与主语she之间为主动关系，故用现在分词形式作状语。
4．Fully ________ in looking after four children at home，she no longer has time to enjoy the various activities in the club.
A．occupied B．contributed
C．hesitated D．devoted
解析：选A。句意：忙于在家照顾四个孩子，她再也无暇去俱乐部进行娱乐活动。be occupied in doing sth.表示“忙于做某事”，符合句意。

A．What is required B．What requires

A．not use；will you see
B．should not use；you will see
C．don’t use；will you see
D．not use；you will see
解析：选A。考查虚拟语气和倒装。前半句是虚拟语气，即“require＋(that)主语＋(should)＋do sth.”，not use前省略了should；seldom本身表示否定含义，位于句首时句子需要倒装。
5 .get/be used to vt. 对……适应，习惯
(回归课本P38)You have to get used to a whole new way of life，which can take up all your concentration in the beginning.
你得适应一种全新的生活方式，在一开始的时候这就会占去你的全部精力。
[归纳拓展]
become/get/be used to sth./doing sth.
习惯于干某事
[例句探源]

②(朗文P2266)I still haven’t gotten used to working nights.

[易混辨析]
used to，be /get /become used to(doing)sth，
be used to do
(1)used to do sth.意为“过去常常做某事”。
(2)be used to (doing)sth.意为“习惯于(做)某事”。
(3)be used to do sth.意为“被用来做某事”。

[即境活用]
7．In my opinion, life in the twentyfirst century is much easier than________.
A．that used to be B．it is used to
C．it was used to D．it used to be
解析：选D。考查动词短语辨析。此处前后带有比较含义应与过去作比较，故排除B项，另外it used to be表示过去的状态，符合题意，故答案为D项。解决此题的关键是区分used to do sth.，be/get/become used to(doing)sth.，be used to do sth.三个结构，它们在形式上很接近，但用法却不同，应分清楚。
8．I ________ to be quite afraid to live in that city，but now I have ________ to the life there.
A．used；been used
B．used；used
C．was used；got used
D．got used；been used
解析：选A。考查短语辨析。used to do过去常常；be/get used to(doing sth.)习惯于……；be used to do sth.(＝be used for doing sth.)被用来干某事。由句意“我过去不敢住在那座城市里，但现在我已经习惯那里的生活了”，可知此题选A项。
6 .fit in 相适应；相融和

答案：fit in with the other people
句型梳理
1【教材原句】 It was the first time she had ever left her motherland.(P38)
这是她第一次离开她的祖国。
【句法分析】 句式It/This/That ＋is (was)＋the first/the second/...time that ...表示“某人第一次/二次/……次做某事”。注意从句的谓语动词常用现在完成时或过去完成时。is 与has/have done 对应；was 与had done 对应。
①It is the first time that I have visited Beijing.
这是我第一次参观北京。
② It was the third time that I had gone abroad.
那是我第三次出国。
[归纳拓展]
(1)It is/was (high)time that sb.should do/did sth.意为“到了做某事的时间了”。相当于 It is/was time for sb.to do sth.
(2)the first time 还可用作连词，引导时间状语从句，表示“第一次……时”。
(3)for the first time 是介词短语，只能用作句子的状语，不可用来引导状语从句，它不具有连词的功能。表示“第一次”。
③I fell in love with Lucy the first time I met her in Atlanta.
我第一次在亚特兰大见到露西时就爱上了她。
④It’s (high)time that we did something to stop pollution.
该是我们做些什么制止污染的时候了。
[即境活用]
10．I thought her nice and honest________I met her.
A．first time B．for the first time
C．the first time D．by the first time
解析：选C。the first time可引导时间状语从句。
11．-It’s the second time that I________to Shanghai.
-What great changes！It’s ten years since I________it last time.
A．have been；left B．had been；left
C．am；had left D．come；had left
解析：选A。在表时间的句式It be＋time＋since从句中出现了时间状语last time，故从句应用一般过去时，排除C、D两项，结合It be＋the＋序数词＋time(that)从句时态特殊要求，可知A项为最佳选项。
2【教材原句】 Besides，as far as he was concerned，what other people thought was not the most important thing.(P38)
此外，他认为别人的想法并不是最重要的。
【句法分析】 (1)besides
1)adv.而且，此外，相当于what’s more，in addition。
①The coat is too expensive.Besides，I don’t like the colour of it.
这件外套太贵，而且我不喜欢它的颜色。
②It’s too late to go out now.Besides，it’s beginning to rain.
现在出去太晚了，而且开始下雨了。
③She is still young and beautiful besides.
她仍然年轻而且漂亮。
2)besides还可用做介词，作“除……以外还有”解，相当于as well as。
④There was another visitor besides me.
除了我之外，还有一位到访者。
⑤Besides being a scholar，he was a famous writer.
他除了是位学者之外，还是位有名的作家。
(2)as/so far as sb./sth.is concerned就……而言；就……来说
⑥As far as I am concerned，I cannot object to your decision.
就我个人而言，我不反对你们的决定。
⑦The car is good as far as the engine is concerned.

就我所知，他到镇上去了。
⑨As/So far as I can see，that’s high unlikely.
依我看，那是极不可能的。
⑩His parents supported him as far as they could.
他的父母竭尽全力养育他。
[即境活用]
12．I don’t mind picking up your things from the store.________，the walk will do me good.
A．Sooner or later B．Still
C．In time D．Besides
解析：选D。besides副词，意为“况且，再说”。句意：我很乐意去商店把你的东西取回来。再说走一走对我自己也有好处。根据题意，D项正确。
13．________I can see，there is only one possible way to keep away from the danger.
A．As long as B．As far as
C．Just as D．Even if
解析：选B。逗号前后并非表示条件、让步关系，也不是用来加强语气。应用as far as I can see来缓和语气，句意：在我看来，只有一种可能脱离危险的办法。
14．________I am concerned，the price of the computer is much too high，so I can’t afford it.
A．As long as B．As far as
C．As well as D．As often as

作文指导
图表类作文
【体裁导航】
图表式书面表达常以曲线图形式，流程图形式，柱星图形式，饼式图形式，数据表格形式及平面图解形式出现。这类题型具有文字少，信息少，要点分散等特征。我们在写作时只有在看懂图示的基础上才能动笔写。如果不能全部领会图表信息，写作中就会出现遗漏信息，分析不准确等一系列问题。图表作文的体裁以说明类和议论类为主，记叙类较少见。
【写作示例】
假如你叫李华，从某网站看到下面调查统计表，感触很深，从而决定写信给某英语报社，反映这一现象，并简要分析原因，呼吁教育部门和家长改变目前局面。
要求：1.语言要连贯、准确，可适当发挥；
2.词数：120～150。
Dear Editor，

【写作要领】
一、审题
1．体裁：图表作文。要求考生对表格、图表进行分析，系统准确地表达出其含义，并得出令人信服的结论。
2．时态和人称：因反映的是现实情况，故应用现在时态和第三人称，发表个人观点时可使用第一人称。
3．本题以图表和文字提示的方式给出了写作要点。因而要根据文字去理解图表，弄清楚图表所反映的信息、问题和现象并准确表述。
二、谋篇
1．首先：分析数据
学生每天花在体育活动上的时间：
美国：72分钟；韩国：42分钟；中国：12分钟
2．然后：分析原因
(1)在学校里大部分时间都花在学习上。
(2)回家后父母也让学生学习。
3．最后：提出措施
教育部门和父母都要意识到体育活动的重要性，给孩子们更多的时间去参与体育活动。
【范文点评】
Dear_Editor，
①It can be seen easily from the above chart that American students spend 72 minutes on physical activities per day，and those in South Korea 42 minutes.②However，Chinese students have only 12 minutes for physical activities per day.
③The reasons lie in the following.④Almost all the time is spent on lessons in Chinese schools and students are made by parents to concentrate on their study even when they get back home.⑤Thus there is little time left for their physical activities.
⑥In my opinion，both the education departments and parents are responsible to give the students more time for physical activities.⑦Anyhow，knowledge can be learned not only from books but also through activities.
Yours_sincerely，
Li_Hua
点评
本段是对图表的分析：
(1)注意一些固定句式的运用，如It can be seen easily from the above chart that...。
(2)数据分析要准确。
第二段是对上述问题的分析，内容要言之有理。
第三段是从个人角度提出解决问题的建议。表述中“in my opinion，responsible，anyhow，not only...but also”等词汇、句式的使用比较到位，为文章提升了档次。
【类题尝试】
假如你是高中三年级的学生李华，你在学校组织了一项“有烦恼向谁说”的调查活动。请用英语给校报编辑写一封信，反映相关情况。内容包括：调查结果(如图所示)、持相应想法的理由及你对调查结果的看法。
注意：1.信的开头和结尾已经给出，但不计入总词数；
2.词数为100左右。

I am a Senior Three student.Recently we have carried out a survey-“To whom do you go when in trouble？”The results are as follows.

One possible version：
Dear_Editor，
I am a Senior Three student.Recently we have carried out a survey-“To whom do you go when in trouble？”The results are as follows.
61% of the students surveyed select friends or schoolmates as their ideal listeners when they have trouble，the reason of which is that they are in the same age group and have a better understanding of each other.Another 22% choose teachers and parents to talk to.
They suggest that teachers and parents are rich in life and educational experience.Nevertheless，there are also 17% who don’t share their troubles at all.They say that their troubles are none of others’ business，or they find it hard to get along with others.
It is not easy to reach definite conclusions based on such a survey example.However，some general comments can be made.It seems clear from the response that some students lack communication with others and teachers and parents need to play a more important role in their lives.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
