2018年高考英語復習筆記
be made from和be made of 之間的區別在于:be made from (由...制成) 制成品已經變得看不出原料了,如課文中的土壤當然不是樹葉的樣子。be made of 是指從制成品中仍然可以看出原料,例如:the bridge is made of stone. 這座橋是由石頭砌成的。the desk is made of wood. 這桌子是木制的。
sight ①情景;風景john enjoyed seeing the sights in new york. ②視力;視野his sight was poor.他的視力很差。you must put it away somewhere out of my sight.你最好把它放在我看不見的地方。

language tip
have some difficulty in doing sth. 表示“做某事有困難”,difficulty在這個結構中是不可數名詞,in有時可以省略。如:do you have any difficulty (in) understanding his spoken english? 你聽懂他的英語口語有困難嗎?做某事毫無困難,可用have no/little difficulty in doing sth 如:i had no difficulty (in) translating the novel. 我翻譯那本小說一點困難也沒有。difficulty也可以指具體的難事、困境(可數),比如:he met with a lot of difficulties.他碰到很多困難!
when do you take your next exams?動詞一般現在時可表示按計劃或安排將要發生的動作,僅限于少數動詞,如begin, get, leave, take, start, go等,如:when does the summer holidays begin? 暑假什么時候開始?the plane takes off at 6:30 p.m. 飛機下午六點三十分起飛。what time does the train leave for shanghai? 開往上海的列車幾點鐘開車?
pardon? 或beg pardon? 或i beg your pardon? 這三句都表示“請再說一遍”的意思,但注意它們都要使用升調。i beg your pardon. 用降調,意思是“請原諒、請寬恕”。又:please pardon me for not arriving sooner. ★
know 是及物動詞,后跟名詞或代詞,意思是直接知道或了解人和物;know about/of 的意思則是間接了解或聽說某人和某物。比較:i have known him for a long time. 我已經認識他多年了。i have known about/of him for a long time. 我早就聽說過他的事。
more or less 意思是“或多或少”、“大體上”、“左右”,用于說話者的意見不那么肯定的情況下。it's an hour's journey, more or less. 大約一小時的路程。our working condition has more or less improved. 我們的工作條件多少有了一些改善。
however 作副詞表示轉折,意為“然而,但是”,可放在句中、句首或句末,而且必須用逗號與句子分開,不能直接引導句子。but 和while也是表示轉折的詞,但這兩個詞都是連詞,用于連接并列分句,but的語氣較強烈,while強調兩者的對比關系。例如:later, however, he decided to go. 可是后來他決定去了。jim is bad at physics, but he passed the exam. 吉姆物理不好,但是他居然及格了。i like tea while she prefers coffee. 我喜歡喝茶,然而她卻喜歡喝咖啡!
come about意思是“發生”、“造成”,相當于happen和take place,沒有被動語態。如:how did this accident come about? 這個事故是怎么發生的呢? sometimes it is hard to tell how a quarrel comes about. 有時候很難說口角是怎樣引起的。
