  If you have a watch, don’t repair it! I know it   1  .Once I had a beautiful watch.And this watch   2   perfect time.But one night it happened that I forgot to   3   it up.Next morning I went to a watchmaker as I wanted my perfect watch to   4   by the exact time.The watchmaker examined my watch and said:“The regulator(校准器)is to be pushed up   5   your watch is four minutes   6  .”

  I tried to stop him, tried to   7   him understand that my watch kept perfect time, but he did not listen to me and pushed the regulator.

  My beautiful watch began to gain time.It   8   faster and faster day by day.By the end of the second month it   9   all the clocks and watches of the town far behind.

  What did I have to do? To take it to another watchmaker to be regulated.I expected him to regulate the watch immediately   10   he asked me to come in a week’s time.When at last I took my watch from him it began to   11   down.And I began to be late for trains, business appointments and even missed my dinners.

  Now I went to   12   watchmaker.While I waited for him to repair my poor watch, he   13   it to pieces and said that he could finish this work   14   three or four days.I could do nothing but   15  .That time my watch went for half a day and then stopped.

  So I kept   16   my watch from one watchmaker to another for a considerable period of time.

  And as a result of it the cleverest man in the world could not   17   the time by my watch.The thing was getting   18  .My watch had   19   two hundred dollars originally but I paid for repairs more than two hundred.At last I decided to buy   20   watch, which I did.

解析:

(1)

for certain“无疑地,确定地”,是一个固定用法,相当于without doubt, for sure;for certainty应为for a certainty。

(2)

keep time“走时准确”,是习惯用法。

(3)

wind sth.up“上(钟或表)的弦;上发条”。

(4)

set a clock/watch“对钟;对表;将闹钟等定时”。

(5)

as用来引导原因状语从句。

(6)

从上文中的be pushed up得知,手表的时间慢了四分钟,而不是快了四分钟。

(7)

make sb.do sth./get sb.to do sth.“使某人做某事”,此题之后接了省略to的不定式understand,所以用make。

(8)

(指钟表)快(慢)于正确的时间,常用gain或lose。如:This watch neither gains nor loses.这表不快也不慢。go只表示“钟表在走(时)”。

(9)

leave sth.far behind“使某事处于落后状态”,A、C、D三项都是不及物动词。

(10)

表转折,however是副词,常用逗号隔开。

(11)

slow作动词,slow down“减慢速度”。

(12)

通过上下文得知作者已经找过了两个修表匠,现在要去第三个修表匠那儿。

(13)

took sth.to pieces“拆开,拆散”,在这里指把表拆成零碎。broke“打碎”;tore“撕毁”;cut“切碎”。

(14)

介词in表示“从当时算起再过多长时间”。

(15)

but前有实义动词do时,but后要接省略to的动词不定式。

(16)

keep(on)doing sth.,意为“不停地做……”。taking“拿去”;bringing“拿来”;fetching“去拿来”;carrying“提起,拿起”,无方向性。

(17)

tell the time指“能够看懂钟表上的时间;看钟表等而说出时间”。不要受中文影响而错用understand。

(18)

get 是连系动词,其后要接形容词作表语,可排除A、C两项,再从逻辑上分析,可排除B项。

(19)

cost表示“某物花费多少钱”。

(20)

another表示“另一个(与之不同的一个)”;the other表“两个当中的另一个”;one表“数量(一个)”;one more“买了一个不够,还要再买一个”。

     When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or   for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For   I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story   than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember   the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For   instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the   story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and   cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in   the speech of a 13 character.

           

   Of course, it is all right to read and enjoy and 14 a story, and   so 15 as one wants to 16 the story only, one need not bother (费心)   about the language. But the case is quite different with a 17 of   English. I mean a student of English is different from a student of   stories or 18 is called the general reader.

           

   As you may also have 19 from the above, you ought to read very 20.   Not only very carefully but also aloud, and that again and again 21   you know the passage by heart and can 22 it as if it were your own.   Positively (正面) this will teach you many 23 words and phrases;   negatively (负面) it will help you to avoid many errors and faults in   expression. Incidentally I have found from 24 that intelligent   copying is a help to 25 by heart.

  Some countries,such as Japan,have a large number of earth quakes.Earthquakes happen very  1 and violently(强烈地).During an earthquake,there is often a great  2 first.Then the earth  3 terribly,many houses  4 ,railway tracks break and trains run  5 lines,a great many factories are  6 ,thousands of deaths are caused,and many more lose homes  7 the great damage and deaths caused by the earthquake  8 ,other disasters such as fires often  9 ,more buildings destroyed and more  10 caused.
