题目内容
Why didn't you come to school yesterday?
________I was ill.
[ ]
解析:
这四个词都表示“因为”,但用法有点区别。首先,because表示直接原因,直接明白,清清楚楚地说明事情原委,它重在因果关系。特别是以why提问的句子,必须用because来回答。例如: Why do you go that way? 你为什么走那条路? Because I think it is the nearest way. 因为我想这是条最近的路。 He must have passed this way, for here are footprints. 他想必是从这条路过去的,因为这里有脚印。 for表示原因,主要是补充并加以说明,解释的。 as和since表示原因和理由时,since较as意味略高,也就是说as在表示原因时,其语气不强。例如: I can't go, (as) I am busy. 我不能去,(因为)我很忙。 (这里的“因为”可以省去) Since your way doesn't work, let me try. 既然你的方法不行,那就让我试试吧。 |
Dear John, Thank you very much for your letter. I am glad that you enjoyed your holiday with me. We enjoyed having you and your sister here. We hope that you will both be able to come again next year. Perhaps you’ll be able to stay longer next time you come. A week is not really long enough, is it? If your school has a five-week holiday next year, perhaps(或许) you’ll be able to stay with us for two or three weeks.
We have been back at school three weeks now. It feels like three months! I expect(期待) that you are both working very hard now that you are in Grade One. I shall have to work hard next year when I am in Grade One. Tom and Ann won’t be in Grade One until 2011.
They went for a picnic yesterday but I didn’t go with them because I cut my foot and I couldn’t walk very well. They went to an island and enjoyed themselves. Do you still remember the island? That’s where all five of us spent the last day of our holiday.
Tom, Ann and I send our best wishes to Betty and you. We hope to see you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Michael

During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled 1. to the other side of the island (岛屿), I could see the other islands, and I said to 2. , “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”
So I decided 3. myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard 4. , but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe (独木舟). Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didn’t I think 5. I began work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn’t move it! I pulled and pushed and 6. everything, but it didn’t move. I was very 7. for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my 8. year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was 9. small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my 10. now, not my prison, and I was just happy to be alive.
