All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; 人们最初是如何发明单词的不得而知，换句话说，语言的起源是个秘密。所有我们所知道的只是，人，不同于动物，不知怎么发明了某些声音来表达思想、情感、行为和物质，以便相互交流；,and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. 后来统一了某些被称为字母的符号，这些字母可以连起来代表那些声音，可以写下来。我们把那些声音叫做单词，不管他们是口语还是书面语。 The power of words, then, lies in their associations-the thing they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; 文字的力量在于其联系性它们把这些联系性带到我们的 头脑中。通过经历，单词对我们充满了意义。,and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases. 我们活得越久，某些单词就越能使我们回忆起过去的喜怒哀乐；我们越是阅读和学习，有意义的单词数量就越增加。 Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. 伟大的作家是那些不仅具有伟大思想而且能用词汇来表达这些思想的人，他们的思想强烈地震撼着我们的心灵和情感。单词的这种美妙和寓意用法就是我们所谓的文学性。,Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar. 总之，真正的诗人是文字的掌握着。他可以用音乐般的词汇来表达自己的意思，这些词汇凭借其所用环境和联系性能让人感动得流泪。因此，我们应该学会仔细选择所用词汇并准确使用，否则会使我们说的话可笑又粗俗。,6.

Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes? 羞怯是许多人不快乐的原因。害羞的人焦虑不安，自我意识强，也就是说，他们过分在意自己的形象和行为。焦虑时常萦绕在他们的脑海中：我给人留下了什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我让人觉得很傻吗?我的穿着是否不吸引人?,It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A persons conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other peoples reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives. 显而易见，这种不舒适的感觉必然给人们带来了不利的影响。一个人的自我意识反映在他或她的行为上，而一个人的行为会影响他人的反应。一般而言，人们认识自己的方式对他们的生活的方方面面有深远的影响。,Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. 羞怯的人非常自卑，他们可能很被动，容易受他人的影响。他们需要得到他人的再次确认：他们所做的是“正确的事情”。羞怯的人对批评很敏感，他们认为批评使得他们更低人一等。,They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, “Youre just saying that to make me feel good. I know its not true.” It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful. 他们也发现自己很难因为受到类似的表扬而高兴，如：你刚才所说的使我感觉很好。我知道那不是真的。很明显，尽管具有自知之明是件好事，但过度自谦则是有害的。,Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteems, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. 羞怯能根除吗?或至少能减少些吗?幸运的是，许多人能通过坚决而有耐心地建立自信来克服羞怯。既然羞怯与自卑天生相伴，那么人们能看见他们的优缺点是很重要的。,Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Lets not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life. 每一个人都是独一无二的，都有其价值所在。我们对我们自己个人的方式感兴趣。我们了解自己越多，我们就越容易充分发挥自己的潜能。不要让羞怯妨碍我们实现富裕而有成效的人生。,11.

One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously（豪华地）furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; 这种对体力劳动的尊敬在美国生活的很多地方都能看到。一个人被邀请到一户家庭赴宴，这户家庭装潢不只舒适，可以说是豪华，处处可证明这家人支付的起国外旅行，奢侈的爱好和孩子的大学教育。,yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. 但是这样的女主人很有可能自己做饭招待客人，然后洗刷餐具，并且这样的宴会不会仅仅提供快餐式的罐头食品，从附近面包房买的蛋糕或派。,On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education. 相反的，女主人通常为精心准备特别的菜肴而感到自豪。男主人会谈论自己如何洗车，在花房劳作，粉刷房子，他的儿子在外地上大学，做餐厅侍应生，洗盘子来供自己生活花费，或者暑假的时候为建筑队在高速公路工作赚钱付学费。,11.

A. is B. been C. are D. was 考察主谓一致,1）- Are you all here? - All but one _ here just now. A. is B. was C. has been D. were all做“全部(物)”解时，谓语动词用单数形式，做“所有（人）”解时，谓语动词用复数形式。 2） A lot of money as well as many tents _ to the homeless people. A. is offered B. are offered C. have offered D. has offered 此句真正的主语是a lot of money，而不是many tents，即as well as后的成分不被算做是主语，所以谓语用单数形式，,主谓一致例题,3） When and where to built the factory _ yet. A. is not decided B. are not decided C. has not decided D. have not decided. 两个疑问词加不定式在句中做主语表一件事的两个侧面，谓语动词用单数形式，又因该句是被动句，故A 为正确答案。 4） Half of the students _ made the same mistake. A. has B. have C. is D. are half of , all of , a part of , most of , a lot of , the rest of , 分数词+of 等短语，通常由of 后面的名词、代词决定谓语动词的单复数形式。,专题辅导-主谓一致,5） Either Jim or I_to blame. A. to be B. am C. are D. is 这里与谓语临近的主语是代词I ，所以系动词要用am ，由连词or , either or, neither nor, not onlybut also, nor 连接的两个名词或代词，谓语的形式要用就近原则。 20. Never before _ see such a terrible car accident on the road! A. I have B. have I C. I did D. did I 考察“倒装结构”,倒装是指将句子的谓语动词或其助动词放在主语之前。 Look! Here comes the bus. （全部倒装） Only in this way can we learn English well. （部分倒装） 常用倒装的两种情况 1出于句子结构的需要 （1）在as, though引导的让步状语从句中，从句往往放在主句的前面，而且从句须以形容词、名词或动词（原形）等开头。,倒装结构,Child as he was, he could speak five languages. Tired as they were, they walked on. （2）代词so, neither, nor等副词置于句首时, 表示“也(不/没有)”全句要倒装 e.g. Tom can speak English. So can Jack. 汤姆会讲英语，杰克也会 Tom hasnt seen the film. Neither have I . 2出于强调 never, seldom, little, nor, hardly(when), scarcely(when), no sooner(than), not only, not until等表示否定的副词或连词位于句首时；,1._ expect such enthusiasm from so many people. A.
