二、考点精析与拓展
1. advise; suggest
advise 与suggest 都可作“建议”讲，二者用法有同有异。
(1)相同点
表示建议做某事，advise与suggest都可采用下列三种句型:
① + 名词
② + 动名词
③ + that从句（从句中常用should加动词原形，should可以省略。）
eg. He advised/ suggested an early start.
He advised/ suggested (our) starting early.
He advised/ suggested that we (should) start early.
(注：只要是用从句表示建议该做的事，从句中就可用“should+动词原形”，should可以省略。)上面的第三句可转化为：
It was suggested that we (should) start early.
What he suggested was that we(should) start early.
His suggestion was that we (should) start early.
(2)不同点
①advise后可以跟人称代词作宾语，而suggest后不可以跟人称代词作宾语。故可以说：
advise sb. to do sth.; advise sb. against (doing) sth.; advise sb. on/ about sth.; suggest(to sb.)that...
前三种结构中不可将advise改为suggest，如：
他建议我们去参观博物馆。
[正]He advised us to go to visit the museum.
[误]He suggested us to go to visit the museum.
[误]He suggested us that we go to visit the museum.
②suggest还有“暗示、表明、说、指出（一个事实）”的意思。此时从句中用陈述语气，不用虚拟语气。如：
The smile on his face suggested that he was pleased.
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the patient was seriously ill.(句中suggest陈述了一个事实，故用陈述语气。)比较：
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the Patient be
operated on at once.(句中suggest表示建议该做某事，从句中用should加动词原形，should在从句中省略。)
2. except; besides; except for+名词/except that+句子用法区别。
except 相当于but,表示“除了……以外（不包括在内）”，常与all, nobody,everything,everybody, nowhere等表示整体概念的词连用。besides相当于apart from，表示“除……以外（尚有）”之义。except for.../except that ...表示“除了……”之意，引述一个相反的原因或细节，因而部分地修正了句中的主要意思。如：Your article is well written except for some grammar mistakes.你的文章写得好，只是有几处语法错误。
3． in future;in the future; for the future
in future意思是“从今以后”。例如：
In future,be careful with your pronunciation.今后要注意你的发音。
Such a bad habit must be got rid of in future.今后成长须改掉这样的坏习惯。
in the furture意思是“将来、今后的日期”，但 不一定就是从今立即开始，而是将来的时间。例如：
No one can know what will happen in the future.没有人知道将来会发生什么事。
My sister wants to be actress in the future.我妹妹将来想当演员。
for the future的意思是“就未来而论、今后”，作“今后”解时可与in future替换使用。例如：
What are your plans for the future when you grow up? 你长大以后对你的未来有什么打算？
For the future, we’ll have to depend on ourselves.今后我们得依靠自己。
4．diet; food
两者都可作“食物”解。diet指的是习惯上吃的食物或规定要吃的食物，特指维持健康的定量或定质的食物，如病人的疗养饮食。food是一般用语。凡能吃喝的具有营养的东西都可称food.例如：
The Chinese diet is considered to be the healthiest in the world。中国的饮食被认是世界上最健康的饮食。
Proper diet and exercise are both important to health.适当的饮食和锻炼对健康都很重要。
He is on a special diet to lose weight.他服用特别饮食以减肥。
The doctor put him on a liquid diet after operation.手术之后医生规定他吃流食。
They eat different kinds of food which change into energy.他们吃的各种各样的食物都转化成能量。
His food includes eggs, vegetables, fruit and some soft drinks.他的食物包括鸡蛋、蔬菜、水果和一些软饮料。
5. exmination; exam; test; quiz
examination通常只指正式的“考试”，如期末考试、入学考试等。exam是examination的缩写，常用于口语，多为学生使用。test为“小考”成“考查”,quiz为“测验”,特指事先无准备，随时进行的测验，也可指（广播节目中的）一般知识测验、问答比赛、猜谜等。例如：
He did very well in the entrance examination. 他在入学考试中成绩很好。
There’s going to be a physics test this afternoon.今天下午将进行物理考试。
The teacher gave us a five-minute quiz.老师对我们进行了一次五分钟的小测验。

Editor:
I could not help wondering why boxing can still be called a sport when I read in China Daily the other day about the death of the boxer Bejines who received a fatal blow in a fight in California.He was only twenty-two years old and his wife was waiting for the birth of the couple’s first child.
I could imagine what a shock it must have been to his wife who will be soon mother of a fatherless child.but I find it hard to imagine how all those people could“enjoy”watching such a fight,it is really a great relief(宽慰)to know that there is no such a thing as boxing in China and I hope that some day in the near future it will disappear everywhere else in the world.
Yours respectfully,
Herma H.Tan

One day Edgar told Bill.I’d like to give a party on Saturday.I’d like you to come and bring Martha,too.
“Thanks,Edgar.We’d be happy to come.”
“Perhaps you’d be willing to sing with your wife at the party.I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us.”

“Good!Don’t forget to practise‘You Are My Sunshine’.That’s the one I like best.I want you to be sure to sing that one.”

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday.The announcement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00.Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately,the theater is on the other side of the town,and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good.But if you are lucky,you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.Last Monday,I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus.By the time I saw one come around the corner,there was not enough time left to make the trip….So I gave up and went back to the office.The same things happened on Tuesday,and again on Wednesday.On Thursday,my luck changed.I got on a bus right away and arrived at theater in exactly twenty minutes.When I got there,however,I found a long line of people at the box office.I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour.Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line.I caught the next bus and headed back across the town.By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi.It was expensive,but I felt it would be worth in to hear the concert.The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes,but it felt like an hour to me.When I got to the theatre,I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.The reason,I quickly discovered,was that they had already sold all the tickets.
61. He learned_______that there would be a concert last Friday.
A.from his friend B.from one of his colleagues
C.cover the radio D.from the newspaper
62. He tried to go to the theater every day but only managed to get there_______.

Guinness Book of World Records is a world famous collection of world records in human life,including all specific skills.
How the book came out is an interesting story.On Nov.10,1951,an Englishman,Sir Beveagh,was having a discussion with his friends.They couldn’t agree with each other whether the falcon(猎鹰)flew quickest among all birds in Europe,and they failed to find the answer in any books.He knew that there must be many such problems in the world.Why not publish a useful book to provide the answers to all these problems?
In 1954,Beveagh decided to work for it.He asked for help from two friends who owned an information supply centre in London.They put together(编成)the first edition(版)of Guinness Book of Would Records in August,1955.The book had only 197 pages,but it was a great success.It was well received by readers and immediately won the No.1 best-seller in Britain.
The book of records has been renewed each year,and has been bought and enjoyed in 141 countries around the world.The 262 editions and 35 languages it has used may be a record itself.
