havesth.done,havesb.do,havesb./sth.doing與havesth.todo等四種句型的區(qū)別?
(1)havesth.done常用來表示“(主語)請別人完成某事”或表示“(主語)遭受某種不幸的情況”,其中have可用get替換。
例如:?
①Whydon’tyouhave(=get)thatsuitcleaned??
你為什么不請人把那套衣服洗一洗??
②Ican’thave(=get)thecarstarted.我不能啟動這輛車。?
③Ihad(=got)mywatchbroken.我的手表給弄壞了。?
“havesth.done”用于否定句中時,表示“不允許……”“不讓”。?
例如:①Iwon’thaveanythingsaidagainsther.我不會允許有任何反對她的言論。?
②Iwon’thavemyhouseturnedintoahotel.我不會讓我的房子變成一個旅館。?
(2)havesb.do表示“請某人完成某事”,可以用“getsb.todo”結(jié)構(gòu)來替換。?
例:①Ihadhimrepairmybike.(=Igothimtorepairmybike.)我請他修理自行車。?
②Don’tforgettohavehimcome.別忘了叫他來。?
“havesb.do”結(jié)構(gòu)還有以下用法:?
1)表示主語無意識的行為,這時“have”作“有”解。?
例:Thesesmallanimalsseemgladtohavepeoplevisitthem.?
這些小動物很高興有人看他們。?
2)主語“經(jīng)歷”某事。?
例:Hehadhismotherdie.他遭喪母。?
3)在否定句中,作“容忍”“允許”。?
例:Iwon’thaveyousaysuchthingsabouther.我不允許你說她這樣的話。?
(3)havesb./sth.doing常表示“讓某人做某事”,“讓某情況發(fā)生”之意,含有動作正在進(jìn)行之意。?
例:①Hesoonhadthemalllaughing.他很快讓他們都笑了起來。?
②Ihaveacarwaitingforme.我讓一部車在等我。?
在否定結(jié)構(gòu)中,表示“不能讓”“不允許”。?
例:Wecan’thavethatsortofthinghappening.我們不能讓那類事情發(fā)生。?
(4)havesth.todo表示“有某事要完成”,其中不定式作定語,且常用主動形式。?
例:①Ihavesomeletterstowrite.我有幾封信要寫。?
②Hehasalargefamilytosupport.他有一大家人要養(yǎng)活。?
如果不定式所表示的動作不是由句子的主語來完成,該不定式則須用被動形式。?
例:“Doyouhaveanyclothestobewashedtoday?”theservantasked.?
傭人問道:“你今天有沒有衣服要(我)洗?”?

29.A.smokersB.sellersC.lookers-onD.users
30.A.olderB.youngerC.wiserD.nicer
答案:
21.A。從第二段及最后一段第一句可以判斷:一家日本公司研制出一套年齡識別體系。
22.B。attachto所附的,“附在機(jī)器上的數(shù)碼相機(jī)”。其他三個選項(xiàng)不符合語境。
23.D。compare...to...“系統(tǒng)將面部特征與十萬多人的面部數(shù)據(jù)進(jìn)行對比”。其他三個選項(xiàng)動詞盡管可以和to連用,但不符合語境。
24.C。features特征,structure構(gòu)造,recognition識別,expression表情,選項(xiàng)C符合語境。
25.D。從文章第一句及最后一句可以判斷。minor未成年人,本文首句提到吸煙的合法年齡是20歲,自動售貨機(jī)要確保購買者不是未成年人。
26.A。年齡識別系統(tǒng)可以避免未成年人借用身份證購買香煙的問題。clarify澄清。
27.B。因涉及到準(zhǔn)確性問題,這套面部識別方法還有待批準(zhǔn)。
28.B。該系統(tǒng)能正確識別出約90%的使用者。
29.D。從第一段toensurebuyersarenotminors判斷,該系統(tǒng)識別的是使用自動售貨機(jī)購買香煙者。故選users。
30.A。從baby-facedadults可得提示。有10%的長相顯老的未成年人和娃娃臉的成年人進(jìn)入“灰色地帶”。
2.語法填空

答案:
31.treatments。本空前面的minor是一個形容詞,它暗示了本空應(yīng)填入一個名詞。Treat(治療)的名詞形式是treatment。此外,本空前面的形容詞some暗示了所填的名詞應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
32.saddest。本空考查形容詞的最高級形式的用法。而且前面有定冠詞the提示,根據(jù)句子意思應(yīng)該選擇saddest。
33.Other。考查other做形容詞的用法,此時,other意為“其他的,另外的”。
34.How??疾橐蓡栐~的用法。
35.nobody。根據(jù)上下文,我們可以知道,沒有任何人來探望作者本人。
36.wasleft。beleftwithathought是一個固定的搭配,意為“產(chǎn)生……的一個想法”。
37.Who??疾橐蓡栐~的用法。這句話是個特殊疑問句,根據(jù)句子意思可知需要選who。
38.tovisit。考查with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)。
39.an。本空填入一個不定冠詞表示泛指。
40.in/by/round。本空考查短語dropin/by/round的用法,其意思為:順便訪問,順便進(jìn)入。
3.閱讀理解(每小題2分,滿分10分)
