　　“If you want to see a thing well，reach out and touch it！”

　　There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin.Feel the shoes on your feet，the clothes on your body，the air on your skin.At first，it is not easy to feel these things.You are too used to feel them!

　　課時作業答案

　　Ⅰ.單項填空

　　1．B　考查介詞短語。B “不管；不顧”符合語境的含義：不顧個人安危，跳進冰冷的水里救孩子。A是搭配錯誤，C不易覺察到，不知道，D因為。

　　2．A　考查介詞短語的辨析。for fear of以防，唯恐……；in need of需要；in spite of盡管；because of因為。帶傘是為了“以防”下雨。

　　3．C　這是一個含蓄虛擬條件句，通過介詞短語without electronic computers，表示潛在的一種假設，而主句中的情況也早已經發生，所以是對過去情況的一種假設，因此用would not have been achieved這一形式。

　　4．D　Despite＝In spite of盡管，其后跟名詞或動名詞。

　　5．C　accidentally偶然地；purposefully有意地；eventually最后；formally正式地。句意為“他工作太努力了，最后竟病倒了”。

　　6．B　本題為錯綜時間條件句中的虛擬語氣也叫混合式虛擬語氣。主句是對現在的虛擬，故主句謂語用would (should)＋動詞原形。

　　7．C　drop out退出，不參加，退學；drop in順便來訪；drop off掉下；drop by順便看望；pick up sb.去接某人；pick out挑出，辨別出。

　　8．C　make sense固定短語，表示“有意義”。

　　9．A　句意為：世界恐怖主義意味著更多的死亡和更重大的損失，因此與恐怖主義作斗爭是我們的職責。therefore意為“因此”；altogether意為“總而言之”；otherwise意為“另外，否則”；moreover意為“此外”。

　　10．A

　　11．C　be full of strength充滿力氣(力量)。

　　12．D　advice后跟同位語從句中應用虛擬語氣，即(should)do。

　　13．C　考查非謂語動詞。appreciate后接動詞時，須用動詞的ing形式，由此可排除A、B、D三個選項。

　　14．D　考查時態。根據問句中的broke可知對方質問的是過去發生的事情，因此回答時要用一般過去時。

　　15．A　考查交際用語。按照西方人的交際習慣，即使對方沒有提供幫助，也要表示感謝。B、C兩項用來表示安慰；no problem表示事情容易做或樂于相助。

　　Ⅱ.句子翻譯

　　16．He is too clever to solve the problem.

　　17．The public are far from satisfied with the safety measures the government have taken.

　　18．Scientists have made a break through in IT field.

　　20．丘吉爾擅長鼓勵民眾，尤其因他的那些許多人都承認的讓人們更有決心去打敗敵人的演講而出名。

　　Ⅲ.完形填空

　　21．B　此處用anything指的是任何曾感到羞愧的事情。

　　22．D　之后老師建議我們想辦法向別人真誠道歉。

　　23．A　right在此處是動詞，意為“糾正，改正”。

　　24．C　我身旁的一位老兄舉手發言，講了如下這個故事。volunteer意為“自愿做”。

　　25．B　我在列舉清單時，想起高中時發生的一件事情。incident表示生活中的小事。

　　26．A　從下文“my two followers”可知，包括我在內是三個人，所以應用none。

　　27．D　我和兩個伙計決定要捉弄這個叫布朗的官員一番。play a trick on捉弄。

　　28．C　用鮮艷的顏料寫上大字。in在此處表示“用”。

　　29．A　布朗把我們三個人弄到他的辦公室。have在此處是使役動詞，意為“叫，請，使”。

　　30．D　從下文“denying the truth”可知，我撒謊了。

　　31．B　我不知道他是否仍在人世。

　　32．C　經打電話詢問，果然有個叫羅杰·布朗的先生。Sure enough果然，果真。
