重點句型與高考
1. It took more than two decades, though, until 1951, for colour broadcasts to begin in the USA.
A. It takes sb. some time to do sth. 此句型表示“某人做某事需花費多少時間”。句中take表示“花費”。 如：
1) _______ environmental damage is done, it takes many years for the
ecosystem (生態(tài)系統(tǒng)) to recover.
A. Even if B. If only C. While D. Once
答案D。一旦環(huán)境被破壞，生態(tài)系統(tǒng)需要經(jīng)歷多年才能恢復正常。
B．句中 though是副詞，表示“然而”，通常用于句末。如：
1）---you do not seem to be quite yourself today. What is wrong?
---Oh, I am suffering from a cold. Nothing serious,______
A. though B. indeed C. anyhow D. yet
答案A。這個題目考察的是though的用法，意思是“我感染了感冒，但是不嚴重”。though作副詞，表轉折，相當于however,一般放在句末。也就是說，這里的though是副詞，副詞一般用于句末,而做連詞的時候，一般不用于句末。yet在表示雖然，但是的時候，是連詞，而不是副詞 。
2. It is reported that in 1998,66 per cent of households in the USA had cable TV.

十一. 任務型閱讀
請認真閱讀下面短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當?shù)膯卧~。注意：每空一詞。
Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people possess certain qualities, which others do not.
The first thing you must remember is that in order to succeed, you must be optimistic. If you do not expect to win, you will not try as hard as those who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear aim and a reason for doing something because motivation is a key to achieving success. If you do not have an aim, then you will not be motivated to work hard and put your performance under the microscope to make sure that every detail is right.
Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity---thinking about things in a different way and wondering how others would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones.
Reading is another to success, as it will help you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about people like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang, who have achieved amazing success in their areas of business.
Practicing is equally important if you want to success because practice makes perfect. Practise every day at whatever career you are in, and by doing so, you will see yourself, your business and your self-confidence begin to grow. If you feel confident about what you do, this confidence will make other people believe in you as well. Your colleagues will be happy to work with you, and your boss will give you more responsibility. Finally if you are a successful person, you will be able to look people in the eye and smile confidently.
Success is yours for the taking! Cheers!

Dear Amy:
Thank you for your letter. I am so glad to have a talk about your present situation with you.
People often miss their parents the first time they leave home. Most people do have to leave home for higher education or employment. You cannot live with your parents forever. I think you should realize that present separation will help your academic development and your improvement of personal ability.
You need to make friend on your school campus, sharing ideas with your classmates who are physically closest to you now. Maybe you will still miss your parents, but your new friends will bring you happiness and joy to your new life. Also I suggest you enjoy yourself by taking an active part in different kinds of activities in school. You will get much pleasure from it.
Wish you happy every day.
Faithfully yours
