文法書CH7

1.Stamp-collecting can be enjoyed by the rich and the poor __
   

    (A) like
    (B) similar
    (C) same
    (D) alike
   
    ps.四個中只有alike這形容詞才能放在名詞後面,另有一些a-開頭的形容詞如alive等也是放在名詞後
   

2. To be heard over the noise of the construction work outside, he tried to talk ___

    (A) in the loudest voice possible
    (B) in the loudest voice possibly
    (C) in the possible voice loudest
    (D) in the possibly voice loudest
   
    ps.這裡用到最高級,要有一個表示範圍的修飾語。 to talk in the loudest voice that was possible,以形容詞子句that was possible(有可能的範圍中)來修飾the loudest voice(最大的聲音)。然後再把形容詞子句簡化,省略掉其中that was,即得到a
   
3.John is not quite ___ as his sister.
   
    (A) good as a student
    (B) as good a student
    (C) as a good student
    (D) an as good student
   
    ps.空格後面的連接詞as表示這是一組as...as的比較級。強調語氣時可用quite as ... as,表示完全一樣,其否定即是not quite as ... as。 not quite as good放在一起,成為形容詞片語後,不能在放a student的之間位置,所以只好移到前面,成為B的答案。
   
4. The most ___ time of life is ___

    (A) joyful / young
    (B) joy / young
    (C) enjoyable / youth
    (D) joyfully / youth
   
    ps.前面應為形容詞(a或c),後面應用名詞青春做主詞time of lie
   
5. His intelligence is  ___

    (A) superior than mine
    (B) more superior than hers
    (C) superior to yours
    (D) more superior to me
   
    ps.表示優於(superior to),劣於(inferior to)這兩個片語不用that。另外,his inteligence 可以和your intelligence 或 yours 比較(如c),但不能和me比較(如d),因為智力要求與智力比,不能和別人比,這是比較級對稱的要求
   
6. We all found it __ to understand Lesson Three.

    (A) difficult
    (B) difficulty
    (C) difficultly
   
    ps. it是虛字,暫代found之後的受詞位置,表示後面的不定詞片語to understand Lesson Three。 it後面的位置是受詞補語的位置,應用形容詞(A)
   
7. It was the first ___ rainfall within half a year in this city.

    (A) noteworth
    (B) noteworthy
    (C) noteworthly
    (D) noteworthing
   
    ps. 這是字型問題。the firstc和rainfall之間是形容詞的位置,四個中只有b是形容詞,另三個查無此字
   
8. Americans are becoming __ of the dangers of cigarettes.

    (A) aware
    (B) awareness
    (C) awake
    (D) awoke
   
    ps. become後面是補語的位置,應用形容詞(只有a和c,d的awoke是動詞)。而c的awake後面應接to,只有aware是接of,所以選a
   
9. we found it of ___ importance to rebuild the wooden bridge.
   
    (A) very
    (B) too
    (C) extremely
    (D) utmost
   
    ps.空格是形容詞位置,只有ulmost(最高的)是形容詞
   
   
10. He took down ___ of the two maps and began to look for the obscure city.

    (A) larger
    (B) the larger
    (C) largest
    (D) the largest
   
    ps.只有兩張地圖,只能用比較級,較大那張以指出,所以要用定冠詞
   
11. you never feel bored while on a camping trip because no two days are ___.

    (A) like
    (B) likely
    (C) likewise
    (D) alike
   
    ps.like是介系詞,likewise是副詞,都不能作補語。likely是形容詞,不過意思是可能性不小,在此意思不通,故用另一個形容詞alike。
   
   
12. The lake is ___ at this point.

    (A) deepest
    (B) the deepest
    (C) deeper
    (D) the deeper
   
    ps. 空格是補語位置,而且是單純的形容詞deep,不是 a deep lake的省略,因為 a deep lake at this point(這一點有深湖)講不通。單純的形容詞deep就不會有冠詞的問題,最高級也一樣,因為冠詞只跟名詞走。
   
13. Chopsticks are ___ to use as a knife and fork.

    (A) easier
    (B) by far as easy
    (C) quite as easy
    (D) much easier
   

    ps.下文有連接詞as,故上文應有as來完成比較級,而在b和c當中,by far只能表示差得遠,不適合表達一樣,所以選c

文法書CH5

1.  I love watching | to watch horror movies alone.


    ps.若用watching,表示看電影這件持續進行的事情。若用to watcch,則帶有一絲想看的味道


2. Listening to music can be very relaxing.


    ps. 聽音樂和dancing等要持續的活動一樣,多用動名詞表示


3. You must not forget to play the phone bill.


    ps. 動詞must not forget暗示電話費尚未付,應該去付,故用表示不確定的play




4. __ outside my window every night is getting on my nerves.
   
    (A) The cats screaming
    (B) The cats to scream
    (C) Screaming cats
    (D) The cat's screaming


    ps.本句動詞is是單數,而abc都以cats為主詞


5. Learning a language is __ all about the culture.
   
    (A) to learn
    (B) learning
    (C) learn
    (D) learned


    ps. 空格在be動詞後面,是主詞補語的位置,要求和主詞對稱,而主詞是動名詞,因此也選動名詞




6. The workers objected to __ like slaves.
   
    (A) be treated
    (D) being treated
   
    ps.object to的to解釋為對某事表示反對,所以是介係詞,應接名詞。


7.  If you don't mind __ so , I think you are in the wrong.


    (A) saying
    (B) to say
    (C) I say
    (D) my saying
   
    ps.意思上應該是不介意我這樣說的話,所以要從c和d來選。再從詞類上看,應用名詞類的my saying so 做mind的受詞



文法書CH4

1. Not wishing to attend the dance, Marie __ that she had a fever.


(C)makes believe
(D)made believe

Ps.從she had a fever 可以看出時間在過去,因而排除現在時間的c,
Make是使役動詞,加動詞原形,make believe表示假裝。

2. He is said by his friends __



(A)to be gentle and gracious
(D) that is a gentle and gracious man




Ps. Is said(據說)暗示並不確定,所以要配合不定詞,可刪去d



3. 「I'll help you whenever you need me.」 「Good. I'd like __ me tomorrow.」


(A) you helping
(B) that will help
(C) you to help
(D) that you help



Ps.根據上下文,回答句應該是希望你明天能來幫忙的意思。因為牽涉到會來、能來的語氣,應有表示不確定的助動詞(如B)或不定詞(如C)。又b的構造是形容詞子句,不能放在like後面作受詞,所以選c,以you為受詞,to help做受詞補語。




4. I am a peaceful person. Don't make me ___ violence.



(A) use
(B) using
(C) to use
(D) used by



ps. make是使異動詞,後面加原形做補語。



5. To get education , ____.



(A) One must work hard
(B) Working hard is necessary
(C) There is need to work hard.
(D) Hard work is needed.



ps. To get an education 是 so that (或in order that) one can get an education的意思,所以後面的主要子句應用one做主詞。


6. The purpose of the investigation is __ the suspect's degree of involvement in the crime.



(A) to ascertaining
(B) ascertaining
(C) to ascertain
(D) ascertained


ps.主詞the purpose是目的,而be動詞後面的空格是主詞補語的位置,也就是表示目的,所以要用不定詞片語to(代表in order to) ascertain(想確定一下)


7. He always has his shoes __ at the railway station.


(A) shone
(B) to shine
(C) shining
(D) shined


ps.後面一半可還原為 His shoes are shined(他的鞋在…給人擦)。把主詞shoes改成受詞,補語shined改成受詞補語,即是答案。


8. He was made __ the Bible every night before going to bed.



(A) read
(B) to read
(C) reading
(D) reads


ps.make 雖是使役動詞,要用原型動詞做補語,可是在被動態中就得把to放回去,成為不定詞。
