2. fit our actions to those of other people 4 Z# L( ~6 d6 X: j+ N; o4 t: A# Z 解析:本题意为:我们是基于一贯的评价和理解来使我们的行为符合别人的。"使......符合"可以直接用动词fit,而本句最容易出错的地方在于如何理解"别人的",实际上,"别人的"是"别人的行为"省略。但是在翻译成英语时必须补齐"行为"才能避免意思含混。因此,不能译成fit our actions to other people。* [: T2 b% T) k/ ]! Y" e
3. vie with each other in answering questions$ @9 }2 j3 x' n! ^1 d; E
解析:本题考查固定短语"争先恐后"可以译成strive to be the first或vie with each other,vie是不及物动词,一般与with连用,表示"与某人竞争做某事"。另外,本题The class are very active的集合名词class指代班级成员因而谓语用复数。如果表示整体概念,则谓语用单数,如:This class is very large. It consists of 90 students. 1 P! l# y3 q, b. m 4. a gas which unites with many substances中 华 考 试 网! {- w6 i' g U
解析:本题主要考查"物质"的词义辨析。matter和substance侧重抽象的物质或某一事件;substance指某种质地、形体、特征或重要性的东西,侧重某个实体,如:a mineral substance(矿物);Salt is a substance we use in cooking.(盐是我们做菜时用的东西。) !
