7、f或a great many修饰,a great many of修饰的名词前应有(these,the等)限定词;time是不可数名词,可用a large amount of或a great deal of修饰,故选B项。 2. A考查副词辨析。句意:我们确信,对他们来说在如此短的时间内完成这项工作是完全不可能的。absolutely“完全地,绝对地”。specially“尤其,特别”;roughly“粗暴地,粗野地;大致地,大略地”;seriously“严肃地,认真地”。 3. C句意:在过去的几十年里,这个国家的耕地面积一直在减少。由时间状语over the past decades可知,主

A当“so/such.that.”结构中的so或such连同它所直接修饰的成分共同位于句首表示强调时,主句要进行倒装(that后面的结果状语从句不倒装)。句意:时间是如此珍贵,我们浪费不起。三、 Born in America,Thomas Edison was a great scientist and
9、 inventor.He was once thought to be a boy who was not worth educating.In fact,he was a man full of wisdom.I admire Edison a lot because of his great contribution to the world.He was so creative that he had more than 1,000 inventions.In his lifetime,he was always eager to know how things worked,which
10、 helped him to earn the nickname “the Wizard of Melo Park”He was also so diligent that he worked day and night.And this explained why he had so many great inventions.What impresses me most is his famous saying,“Genius is one percent inspiration and ninetynine percent perspiration.”Probably I cannot be an Edison myself,but I can be a hardworking student.From him,I realise the secret to success is not when or where you were born,but what you are doing and how you do it in your life.
