10.尽管空气污染严重,警察仍在高峰时段坚守岗位,严格执法,确保交通畅通.(Despite)Despitetheseriousairpollution,policemenstillsticktothepostsintherushhoursandstrictlycarryoutthelawtoensurethesmoothtraffic..

分析 Despite the serious air pollution,policemen still stick to the posts in the rush hours and strictly carry out the law to ensure the smooth traffic.

解答 本题考查despite引导让步状语,另外用and连接stick to和carry out作为并列谓语也是本题的考查点.

点评 本题中引导让步状语除了可以使用despite之外,还可以使用in spite of,但其后只能接名词或动名词短语;另外本句还可以使用although或though等引导的让步状语从句.

3.When people think of Hollywood,they think of the city where dreams come true.This did not apply to F.Scott Fitzgerald,a screenwriter who had his share of ups and downs in this land.Fitzgerald was not a successful Hollywood writer because he was not good at the career path he chose.He was an amazing novelist,but his efforts of turning them into screenplays ended in disappointment and confusion.It was because of a lack of potential for screenwriting as well as his addiction and desire to be famous.
Growing up as a boy,Fitzgerald went to movies a lot.He wanted to write stories that would eventually turn into movies.The problem was:just because Fitzgerald wanted to do something didn't necessarily mean that he was good at it.He made his attempts,but most of these efforts ended in disappointment because he thought about the change from script(剧本)to screen too much.His plot was too detailed and complicated; his tone was too serious or his dialogue too sentimental(感伤的).
Fitzgerald's quick rise to fame also led to his fall.In life,things are not meant to happen all at once,all that the same time but it did for Fitzgerald.At his best time,three of his early stories were made into short films,including The Great Gatsby and Babylon Revisited.As the twenties approached,he was gradually forgotten by the reading public.He became drunk and constantly took pills both to sleep and wake up.His marriage was destroyed and his wife broke down mentally.He seemed unsure about his life.
Fitzgerald had another chance at success when many opportunities came his way,including revisions of Emlyn William's play The Light of Heart and production of one of his own scripts,Cosmopolitan.However,these were all put aside and he was right back where he started,left behind and called a"ruined man".Fitzgerald simply wanted too much in his life.He wanted"to be both a great novelist and a Hollywood success,to write songs like Cole Porter and poetry like John Keats".His addiction to fame held him back and led to his failure as a Hollywood writer.

B.He had a miserable family life.
