[备考1]测试考点1 We argued him having a second try. A. to B. with C. into D. by 1．C点拨：argue sb．into…力劝某人干……。
[备考2]测试考点15 All the people ran out to see
A. what was the matter B. what the matter was C. how the matter was D. what's matter 2．A点拨；间接引语中，如果疑问词作主语，语序不变，且用于一般过去时态，故选A。 [备考3]测试考点10 --Henry doesn't know much about computer.
A. So does Mary B. So Mary does C. Neither do 1 D. Nor I do
3．c点拨：前半部分是疑问句，故可排除A、B项。后半部分表示我同亨利一样也不懂电脑，应该用倒装语序。 [备考5]测试考点5 --Sorry, Miss Jane. I forgot to send a letter for you. --That's all right. Ill Jim to do it. A. have B. let C. make D. get
4．D 点拨：have/let/make sb．do，而get sb．to do。固定结构。 [备考5]测试考点12 I don't like the coffee．There is sugar in it． A．much too B．too much C．very much D．much more
5．B点拨：too much的用法同much．修饰后面的不可数名词sugar，不存在比较级的问题。 [备考6]测试考点10 ld like to go shopping with you，but I have a meeting ． 一If you don't go，
A．to attend；nor will I B．to attend：so do I C．attending．；so will I D．attend：will I neither
6．A 点拨：have a meeting to attend有一个会议要参加；If you don't go用于条件句表否定．后面的结果句对应地应该用将来 时，且主语发生变化，应该用倒装，因此用neither/nor will I。
[备考7]测试考点14 I went to the lecture early I got a good seat． A．in order to B．so that C．in order that D．so as to
7．B点拨：此题的关键是后面是l got a good seat句式，故排除A、D项:in order that引导的是目的状语从句．so that既可引导目的状语从句，也可引导结果状语从句，而此句显然是结果状语从句。
[备考8]全国统一高考新题型：阅读填空
Friends come in many ways. There are best friends, fair- weather friends, forever friends and so on. Best friends will spend all and share all your thoughts and feelings with you. School friends are different: You study and have fun together, but you may not know everything about each other. Fair-weath- er friends only like you when you are happy or popular. If you feel unhappy or if you have some trouble, fair weather friends wouldn't like to be together with you. Forever friends are friends that will always listen to you and try to help you.
