He isnt that kind of person.我确信他没偷，他不是那种人。I m certain he didnt break the cup. I broke it myself.我敢肯定他没有打碎那个茶杯，(因为)那个茶杯是我打碎的。如果it作为形式主语代替从句时，则其后的表语用certain，而不能用sure。It isnt certain whether he will give us a report next Monday.下星期一他是否来为我们作报告还不能确定。两者在作定语时含义不同。sure意为“可靠的；无误的”；而certain若修饰可数名词，意为“某一；某些；某种；一些”，若修饰抽象名词，表示程度，意为“有点；有些”。He made a sure answer.他回答得准确无误。A certain person called on me yesterday.昨天有个人来找过我。在祈使句中常用sure，不宜用certain。Be sure and remember what I told you.千万要记住我对你讲的话。口语中，sure常作副词，用在肯定答语中替代surely，这时与of course，certainly意思相当，而certain不可作副词用。 Would you please turn down the radio a little bit?请你把收音机音量调小点，好吗？ Sure/Of course/Certainly.当然可以。 Its _ that he said: “I am _ to help you.” Dont take it seriously. He is always playing that trick.A. sure; sureB. certain; certainC. sure; certainD. certainly; surelyBit 作形式主语时只能用certain 作表语。人作主语时，sure和certain都可以用，但是不能用surely。故选B。【6】 compare vt. 比较，对照compare with与做比较(同类相比)My English cannot compare with his.我的英文水平不如他。compare sth./sb. to 将比(喻)作(异类相比)A teachers work is often compared to a candle.教师的工作常被比作蜡烛。compare notes 交换意见；交流体会without/beyond compare 无可比拟comparison n. 比较；对照by comparison 相比之下in comparison with/to 与相比By comparison, expenditure on education increased last year.相比之下，去年教育经费增加了。The tallest buildings in London are small in comparison with New Yorks skyscrapers.伦敦最高的建筑物与纽约的摩天大楼一比就相形见绌。_ with the size of the whole earth, the biggest ocean does not seem big at all.A.
