5、re richly various than those of any other young English novelist.To appreciate the rich variety of Mr. Lawrence we must read his later novels and his volumes of poetry.

6、agery and rhythm. The speech of the people is that of daily life and the things that happen to them are normal adventures and accidents; they fall in love, marry, work, fail, succeed, and die.

10、, and yet not nothing.Such glorious writing lifts the book far above a novel which is merely a story. I beg the reader to attend to every line of it and not to miss a single one of the many sentences that await and surprise you. Some are enthusiastic and impressive, like the paragraph above; others
11、are keen, “realistic” observations of things and people. In one of his books Mr. Lawrence makes a character say, or think, that life is “mixed”. That indicates his philosophy and his method. He blends the accurately literal and trivial (琐碎的) with the extremely poetic.To find a similar blending of ti
12、ny daily detail and wide imaginative vision, we must go back to two older novelists, Hardy and Meredith. I do not mean that Mr. Lawrence derives (源于) immediately from them or, indeed, that he is clearly the disciple (弟子) of any master. I do feel simply that he is of the elder stature (名望) of Hardy a
13、nd Meredith, and I know of no other young novelist who is quite worthy of their company. When I first tried to express this comparison, this connection, I was contradicted by a fellowcritic, who pointed out that Meredith and Hardy are entirely unlike each other and that therefore Mr. Lawrence cannot
14、 resemble both. To be sure, nothing is more hateful than forced comparisons, nothing more boring than to discover parallels between one work of art and another.

28、的比较级形式，bad也应用形容词的比较级；bad的比较级为worse。故填worse。3答案与解析：the考查冠词。句意：早在20世纪90年代，一个名叫查尔斯摩尔的人发现了一个巨大的塑料岛漂浮在北太平洋上成吨成吨的漂浮塑料物品和垃圾。表示年代，应用定冠词the。故填the。4答案与解析：named考查过去分词。句意：早在20世纪90年代，一个名叫查尔斯摩尔的人发现了一个巨大的塑料岛漂浮在北太平洋上成吨成吨的漂浮塑料物品和垃圾。a man 和name之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用过去分词作后置定语。故填named。5答案与解析：floating考查现在分词。句意：早在20世纪90年代，一个名叫查
29、尔斯摩尔的人发现了一个巨大的塑料岛漂浮在北太平洋上成吨成吨的漂浮塑料物品和垃圾。a huge island of plastic和float之间为逻辑上的主动关系，因此用现在分词作后置定语。故填floating。6答案与解析：have been discovered考查时态和语态。句意：从那以后，在世界其他地方又发现了四个漂浮的塑料岛。根据时间状语since then可知，应该用现在完成时；主语four more floating islands of plastic和discover之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，应用被动语态，因此用完成时的被动语态形式 have been done；主语中心词是i
30、slands，是复数，谓语动词也用复数形式。故填have been discovered。7答案与解析：what考查从属连词。句意：尽管专家们不确定塑料现在对我们的海洋或我们自己的健康造成了什么影响，但他们怀疑小鱼吃进小块塑料，然后大鱼吃小鱼的时候，这些小块塑料就吃进大鱼体内。分析句子结构，experts are not sure后是宾语从句，宾语从句中the plastic is doing后缺少宾语，因此用what引导宾语从句，在从句中作宾语，意思为“东西”。故填what。8答案与解析：likely考查固定短语。句意：我们处于食物链的顶端，也许塑料很可能最后一个进入的是我们。在be动词is后应是形容词作表语；根据句意，应是短语be likely to 意思为“可能”。故填likely。9答案与解析：to figure考查不定式。句意：摩尔和他的研究伙伴们希望弄清楚塑料正造成什么样的影响。根据句意，应是短语hope to do “希望做”，后接不定式作宾语。故填to figure。10答案与解析：for考查固定短语。句意：他们确切知道的是有1万到3万5千吨的塑料漂浮在我们的海洋表面。根据句意，应是短语for sure“肯定，确实”。故填for。
