Step 2. Unit 3 同义词（组）辨析
1．meet；meet with
meet可作“遇见”、“迎接”解。meet with表示“遇见”、“碰到”时，常含有“偶尔”的意思（＝come across，come upon）。此外，meet with还可表示“遭遇”或“经历”的意思。在美国英语中，meet with还可以表示“会见”。
I often meet her on the street．
She said she had to go to the station to meet her uncle．
I have met with this word many times in my reading．
You should not lose heart when you meet with difficulty in learning a foreign language．
The department head met with her in his office．
2．meeting； conference； gathering； party
meeting可以用于两人或多人，表示偶然的或拟定的，短暂的或持续的聚会。它的用途很广，可用于日常普通场合，也可用于特殊的或官方的正式场合。如：
The students had a class meeting last Friday．
The summit meeting of the state heads came to an end two days later．
conference指专门性的正式会议，常用于就某个重大问题进行专门研究或交换意见的讨论会、协商会等。如：
Many reporters came to attend the press conference．
The annual conference of geologists will be held in Chicago this year．
gathering一般指非正式的集会，常用于群众性的活动（像联欢会等）。如：
A public gathering was held in Zhongshan Park on May Day．
party指社交性或娱乐性的集会。如：
Mary and I were invited to Jane’s birthday party the other day．
Mr．Brown gave a dinner party last Thursday．
3．though；although；as
这三个词都可以表示“虽然”、“尽管”。though和although引导让步状语从句时，常可互换，只是although的语气更强一些。如：
Though／Although it was late，the farmers kept on harvesting the crops by the lights of the tractors．
此外，though可以用于省略句，although很少这样用爐hough引导的从句可以部分倒装，although引导的从句不用倒装语序。如：
Though poor, he is always neatly dressed．
Poor though I am, I can afford it．
as表示“虽然”、“尽管”引导让步状语从句时，从句要用倒装语序，将表语、状语等置于句首。
Tired as he was, he went on working with his workmates．
Child as he is, he knows a lot about the computer．
注意：as引导让步状语从句时，若充当表语的名词位于句首，则该名词前面不用冠词。
4．close；closely
close, closely这两个词都可以用作副词，close表示“靠近”、“紧紧地”，closely则表示“紧密地”、“严密地”、“密切地”。如：
I went closer, and saw clearly a tall man in the moonlight．
Come close, I want to tell you something important．
The policeman followed the strange man closely．
The scientists got closely in touch with the astronauts.
Step 2. 单元知识点与高考考点透视(Unit3)
1．课本原句：Would you like me to type your composition for you？
考例1）：（NMET 97）I would love ____ to the party last night but I had to work extra hours to finish a report．
A．to go B．to have gone C．going D．having gone
考点点拨：would（should）like（love）的意思是“愿意、希望、想”，后跟名词、代词或不定式作宾语，不可以跟V-ing形式，如果表示“希望某人做某事”可以用含动词不定式的复合宾语，即would（should）like（love） sb．to do sth．。考例1）表示本来想去参加晚会，而实际上没去，不定式要用完成式形式，故选B。
2．课本原句：Waving one's hand is to say“Goodbye"．
考例2）：（2001上海）In such dry weather，the flowers will have to be watered if they ____ ．
A．have survived（幸存、生还） B．are to survive C．would survive D．will survive
考点点拨：动词不定式作表语时可以表示目的，如本课中的这一句。另外还可以表示事态发展的趋势、预期的结果、不幸的命运或预言，如：
1. You must speak out if we are to remain friends．（如果我们还想做朋友的话，你就痛痛快快地把话都说出来。）由于状语从句的谓语动词不可以用将来时，考例2）可先排除C、D项，而A项的完成式不符合题意，故选B。
3．课本原句：In France，it is the custom to shake hands with people in the office every morning．
2. 考例3）：（MET 89）Is ____ necessary to complete the design before National Day？
A．this B．that C．it D．he
考点点拨：动词不定式作主语时，通常用形式主语it代替，而把真正的主语后置，目的是为了避免句子的“头重脚轻”现象，以保持句子的平衡，本题选C。
4． 课本原句：Although we may not realize it，when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just by words．
考例4）：（MET 91）The speaker raised his voice but still couldn't make himself ____ ．
A．hear B．to hear C．hearing D．heard
考点点拨：make oneself done结构中的make是使役动词，跟过去分词作宾语补足语时，宾语补足语与宾语之间是被动关系，意思是“使自己被……”，如：Would you like to make yourself known？（你能自我介绍一下吗？）本题选D。句意是：演说者提高了嗓门，可是人们还是听不到。
5．课本原句：If you touch an English person，you should say "Sorry"．
考例5）：（NMET94）Here's my card．Let's keep in ____ ．
A．touch B．relation C．connection D．friendship
考点点拨：touch作动词解的意思是“触摸、接触、碰到”，作名词解的意思是“触摸、接触、联系”，短语keep in touch with sb．的意思是“与某人保持联系”，如表示“与某人取得联系”则用get in touch with sb．。由考题中的here's my card，可知选A。
6．课本原句：But English people do not like to be too close to one another unless there is a reason．
考例6）：（2001京皖春招）The men will have to wait all day ____ the doctor works faster．
A．if B．unless C．whether D．that
考点点拨：连词unless的意思是“除非、如果不”，相当于“if．．．not”， unless从句多接肯定式来引导条件状语从句，当主句用一般将来时态的时候，从句一般要用一般现在时态，考例6）选B。

Dear Tom，
Thanks for your letter．It's interesting to learn your story．Now I'd like to answer your questions．
In China，we have our own way to greet each other when we meet．In your country，friends may say “Hello！”or “Hi！”to each other．In China，people，especially old people love to ask “Have you had your meal？or “Where are you going？ In fact， they really don't want to know whether you have had your meal or not，or where you are going．They just express their care or attention to you by saying so．Of course，you may feel embarrassed to hear these words．But if you stay in China a little longer，you will get used to it．
OK，does my explanation sound reasonable？
Best wishes！
Yours，
Zhu Feng
