He isnt that kind of person.我确信他没偷，他不是那种人。I m certain he didnt break the cup. I broke it myself.我敢肯定他没有打碎那个茶杯，(因为)那个茶杯是我打碎的。如果it作为形式主语代替从句时，则其后的表语用certain，而不能用sure。It isnt certain whether he will give us a report next Monday.下星期一他是否来为我们作报告还不能确定。两者在作定语时含义不同。sure意为“可靠的；无误的”；而certain若修饰可数名词，意为“某一；某些；某种；一些”，若修饰抽象名词，表示程度，意为“有点；有些”。He made a sure answer.他回答得准确无误。A certain person called on me yesterday.昨天有个人来找过我。在祈使句中常用sure，不宜用certain。Be sure and remember what I told you.千万要记住我对你讲的话。口语中，sure常作副词，用在肯定答语中替代surely，这时与of course，certainly意思相当，而certain不可作副词用。 Would you please turn down the radio a little bit?请你把收音机音量调小点，好吗？ Sure/Of course/Certainly.当然可以。 Its _ that he said: “I am _ to help you.” Dont take it seriously. He is always playing that trick.A. sure; sureB. certain; certainC. sure; certainD. certainly; surelyBit 作形式主语时只能用certain 作表语。人作主语时，sure和certain都可以用，但是不能用surely。故选B。【6】 compare vt. 比较，对照compare with与做比较(同类相比)My English cannot compare with his.我的英文水平不如他。compare sth./sb. to 将比(喻)作(异类相比)A teachers work is often compared to a candle.教师的工作常被比作蜡烛。compare notes 交换意见；交流体会without/beyond compare 无可比拟comparison n. 比较；对照by comparison 相比之下in comparison with/to 与相比By comparison, expenditure on education increased last year.相比之下，去年教育经费增加了。The tallest buildings in London are small in comparison with New Yorks skyscrapers.伦敦最高的建筑物与纽约的摩天大楼一比就相形见绌。_ with the size of the whole earth, the biggest ocean does not seem big at all.A. CompareB. When comparingC. ComparingD. When comparedD该题考查状语从句的省略及动词compare的用法。该句前面补全为When (it is) compared with the size of the whole earth, 由于主句的主语和从句的主语一致，所以省略了it is，故选 D。 【7】 base n. 根据地，基地，(棒球)垒Shanghai is the most important industrial base of China.上海是中国最重要的工业基地。After _ in “The Brokeback Mountain (断背山)”， Ang Lee decided to direct another English film “Lust Caution(色戒)”， _ on a short novel by Zhang Ailing.A. succeeded; basedB. succeeding; basingC. succeeded; basingD. succeeding; basedD句子主语是succeed这个动作的执行者，所以要用succeeding；后面是分词短语作定语，相当于which was based on，省略了which was, 所以是based。【8】 once adv. 一次，一度，从前， conj. 一旦She once knew him.她以前认识他。Once bitten, twice shy.一朝被蛇咬，十年怕井绳。/吃一次亏，学一次乖。Once you begin, you must continue.一旦开了头，你就应当继续下去。After _ in “The Brokeback Mountain (断背山)”， Ang Lee decided to direct another English film “Lust Caution(色戒)”， _ on a short novel by Zhang Ailing.A. succeeded; basedB. succeeding; basingC. succeeded; basingD. succeeding; basedD句子主语是succeed这个动作的执行者，所以要用succeeding；后面是分词短语作定语，相当于which was based on，省略了which was, 所以是based。once more/again 再一次；重新for once 就这一次only once只有一次at once 马上，立刻；(instantly)同时once upon a time 从前(用于故事的开头)all at once 一下子，突然once in a while 偶尔，间或once or twice 一两次once (and) for all 一劳永逸地；彻底地从前，有一位美丽的公主。_我们需要把这件事一次性解决。_火车又一次晚点了。_只有这一次他按时到了。_Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess.We need to settle this matter once and for all.Once again the train was late.Just for once he arrived on time.【9】辨析pick, choose, select, elect(1)pick意为“挑选，挑拣”，是仔细挑剔和苛刻地选择，多指挑选有形的东西。You should pick your words while preparing the speech.准备演讲时，你得注意措辞。(2)choose用法最广，表示“选择，挑选”，侧重于通过意志或判断，是最普通的用语。She chose the red sweater rather than the pink one.她选中那件红毛衣而不是那件粉红色的。(3)select表示“精选，挑选”，是指从同类的许多东西中仔细辨别后选择，挑选最合适的，从而淘汰一部分。We selected some for seeds.我们选了一些做种子。(4)elect表示“选举，推选”接班人或职位。All the people agreed to elect him our chairman.所有的人都同意推举他为我们的主席。选词填空：pick/choose/elect/selectTheyre going to _ fruit today.今天他们要去摘水果。You may _ what you like.你可以选择你最喜欢的东西。We _ her monitress of the class.我们选她为班长。Who has been _ to take part in the game?挑选谁来参加这个比赛？pickchooseelectselected【10】prove vt.
