一、重點詞匯與短語
1．bother：
（1）作“打擾；煩擾”講，bother為及物動詞，其后可以直接跟賓語。例如：
Will it bother you if I turn the television on? 我開電視會不會吵著你?
I'm busy, don't bother me. 我正忙著，不要打擾我。
I'm sorry to bother you, but can you direct me to the railway station?

（2）作為不及物動詞bother常與about, with, to連用，意思是“麻煩，煩惱，操心”。
例如：
Don't bother with/about it. 別為此操心。
Don't bother about it. 不用麻煩了。
Don't bother about answering his letter. 你不必回復他的信。
（3）bother可以作名詞使用，此時它是不可數名詞，意思是“麻煩，不便”。

你說的話毫無意義，所以，我無法理解。
二、詞義辨析
1．bear, suffer, endure, tolerate, stand這組動詞都有“忍受”的意思
（1）bear 和 suffer 可以表示“對強加的任何東西的忍受”，bear 側重于表示“忍受沉重或難辦的事”。
例如：
In the end I could not bear it. 最后，我受不了啦。
When my old friend Brian urged me to accept a cigarette, it was more than I could bear.
當老朋友布賴恩慫恿我接受一只香煙時，我就受不住了。
（2）suffer 側重于表示“忍受或經受令人不愉快的、甚至于痛苦的事”。
例如：
No benefactions and research endowments can make up for the change in character which the university city has suffered.
捐款和科研經費決不能彌補大學城所經受的性質上的變化。
（3）endure 強調“長時間的忍受痛苦而不屈服”。
例如：
What can't be cured must be endured.
治不好的病就必須忍受。（諺語）
Travelers in space have to endure many discomforts in their rockets.
宇宙旅行家不得不在火箭中忍受許多不舒適的東西
（4）tolerate 和 stand 都表示“忍受令人生厭的事”。tolerate 的內涵是“為了和平或融洽而不反對”。
例如：
Why people are prepared to tolerate a four-hour journey each day for the dubious privilege of living in the country is beyond my ken.
為了農村生活的模糊的好處，人們?yōu)楹胃试溉淌苊刻煸诼飞匣ㄋ膫�小時，這便超越了我的見識了。
Considering his home situation, he had to tolerate his wife.
考慮到家中的情形，他不得不忍讓妻子了。
（5）stand 常與 bear 通用，如果用詞確切，stand 總包含著“不退讓”、“不畏縮”的“忍受”。
例如：
He can stand more pain than anyone else I know.
他比我認識的任何人都更能忍受痛苦。
He stood the test of war. 他經受住了戰(zhàn)爭的考驗。
2．but, however, while的區(qū)別：
（1）but作“但是，然而”講，是并列連詞。
例如：
I was going to write, but I lost your address.
我本來要寫信的，可是把你的地址弄丟了。
The journey was long but interesting. 旅途雖然長，但是很有趣。
（1）however也作“然而，可是”講，但它是副詞。它的用法比but更正式，可以用在句首、句中和句尾，前后必須有逗號和其它成分隔開。
例如：
He hasn't arrived. He may, however, come later.
他還未到，不過，他可能過一會兒來。
"I'd like to go with you; however, my hands are full."
"我很想和你一塊兒去,可是我忙不過來。"
（2）but和however含有轉折的意味，而while則強調前者和后者的對比，這時while為連詞。
例如：
While I understand what you say, I can't agree with you.
雖然我理解你的意思，但我還是不同意。
You like tennis, while I'd rather read. 你愛打網球，但我愛看書。
三、重點句型
1．I was moving forward over a slope that seemed safe when suddenly without warning my world dropped out from under my skis.
這個句子中，when引導的句子表示“就在那時，突然”的意思。不要翻譯成“當…的時候”。再如：I was cooking in the kitchen when the telephone rang loudly. 我正在廚房做飯，突然/就在那時，電話鈴聲大作。
2．It was a time in which many sad things happened to her.
此句中的a time表示一個時期，in which引導一個定語從句。要注意：something happen to somebody表示“某人出了什么事情”，此處to為介詞；而我們還會看到以下句型：I happened to meet him in the street. 在這個句型中， to是不定式符號，此句意思與下一句相同：=It happened that I met him in the street.
3．Oprah Winfrey is not just a very successful TV personality in the US, she is also a woman who has inspired millions.
此句中的“not just…also…”表示“不僅…而且…”，再如：Einstein was not just a great scientist, he was also a music lover. 另外這個句子中的動詞inspire的用法也要注意，除了本句的主動語態(tài)外，它還經常用于被動語態(tài)。例如：
I was inspired to work harder than ever before.
我受激勵比以往任何時候都更加努力地工作。
四、語法復習
主謂一致:
1．由and連接兩個名詞或代詞作主語時，一般情況下謂語動詞用復數形式，但是如果and所連接的兩個名詞指同一人物、同一事物、同一概念時，謂語動詞要用單數形式。

例如：

9．表示距離, 時間, 長度,價值, 金額, 重量等的詞,用復數形式時,謂語動詞用單數；如果要表示具體的多少，強調復數的意義時，謂語動詞用復數形式。

【考點透視 考例精析】
[考點] 倒裝結構。
[考例1] I failed in the final examination last term and only then _________ the importance of studies.
A．I realized B．I had realized C．had I realized D．did I realize
[解析] Ｄ “only+狀語”放在句首時，主句部分就要倒裝，把助動詞、情態(tài)動詞或者be動詞提前。因為這個句子是一般過去時，所以在主句前加上did，謂語動詞要還原成原形。
[拓展] 這種倒裝句要特別注意助動詞提前以后，后面的動詞要用原形，而被加上的助動詞要體現句子的時態(tài)。例如：
Only in this way can we do the work well. (只有用這種方法，我們才能把工作做好。)
Only after they came did we returned home. (只是等他們來到以后我們才回家。)
[考點] 考查it的用法-強調結構。
[考例2] Could it be in the room _______ we had a talk last night _______ you left your keys?
A．in which, when B．which, when C．where, that D．where, when
[解析] Ｃ 這是強調句的一般疑問句形式。被強調的部分為“in the room where we had a talk last night”，其中where引導一個定語從句修飾room。
[考點] 考查主謂一致。
[考例3] Every possible means ________ to prevent the air pollution, but the sky is still not clear.
A．is used B．are used C．has been used D．have been used
[解析] Ａ 第二個句子的時態(tài)可以判斷出第一句應該用一般現在時。

閱讀理解：
You might not want a holiday in your home town, but there is probably someone who does. And in exchange, you could have a cheap vacation anywhere in the world.
Just picture the scene: you’re watching the sunset from the balcony（陽臺）of a Caribbean island house. It’s large and free, as long as you don’t mind the owners living in your home at the same time.
All you need to be a home-swapper is the Internet and a rough idea of when and where you want to go on holiday. When you find someone whose dates match yours , and who wants to visit your area, you’re all set swap（v.交換）.
The advantages are numerous; you can save a fortune in accommodation（膳宿）costs. You could get to use the owner’s car, boat, bikes, pool or gym. You might even be able to come to an arrangement about looking about after each other’s pets!
You also get to live like a local, and you might be invited round to neighbor’s homes for tea, barbecues（吃烤肉的野餐）and tips on the area. People say that these cultural experiences are the memories that last. Plus, instead of one tiny hotel room, you have an entire house where you can make yourself at home. And it’s not cold and impersonal like a hotel room.
Of course, there are disadvantages. A lot of effort and communication are needed before the arrangements are finalized（）. Nobody wants a stranger living in their house, sleeping in their bed and using their bathroom, so you have to get to know each other well beforehand（預先）.
Some people are concerned about theft or property damage, but in reality, this is very rare. Most home-exchangers have the view that “If they can trust me with their house, I can trust them with mine.”The worst complaint people have is the difference in standards of cleanliness.
If you’re interested in home-exchange for your next holiday, start by contacting a famous agency like homelink.org and intervac.co.uk. These agencies will also have advice about preparing for a home-exchange.
1．What will you remember most probably if you have swapped your home with another?
A．The sunset B．The car or boat of the home owner.
C．The pet of the home owner D．A gathering in his neighborhood.
2．The underlined word “tips” refers to _______.
A．the pointed ends of something B．gifts of money given for small service
C．helpful pieces of advice D．places where unwanted waste is left
3．If you want to exchange your home with another, you should do all of the following EXCEPT _______.
A．inviting your neighbors home for tea B．trying to know each other
C．surfing the Internet for information D．finding someone who wants visit your area
4．Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．Where to Live When You Are on a Trip?
B．Home Away from Home.
C．Do You Want a Holiday in Your Hometown?
D．Advantages and Disadvantages of Home-exchange.

1-４ DCAB
1．D 細節(jié)題。第五段“People say that these cultural experiences are the memories that last.”一句中that last是the memories的定語從句，句意為：人們說這些文化經歷是延續(xù)長久的記憶。
2．C 詞義理解題。在四個選項都是tip的意義，但從上下文可知，此處tips指的是“在陌生的鄰里之間得到的東西”，而其后的on the area意為“關于這個地區(qū)”，所以選C,即鄰里會告訴你一些在這個地區(qū)旅游的建議。
3．A 綜合推斷題。A項與第五段句首“…and you might be invited round to neighbor’s homes for tea”有出入，而其它選項文中都有依據。
4．B 主旨大意題。首段的“exchange”，文中的“home-swapper”、“swap”，以及最后兩段的“home-exchangers”、“home-exchange”等說明互換住房是文章介紹的內容，所以應選B項，該句意為“離家后的住房“。
