高考英语词汇详解：persuade陷阱题解析

persuade是“说服”还是“设法说服”呢?请看题：

I _____ him not to go abroad, but he wouldn’t listen.

A. persuaded B. tried to persuade

C. have persuaded D. was persuaded

陷阱容易误选A。

分析正确答案为B。persuade 的真正意思是“说服”，而不是“设法说服”，要表示后者的意思英语应用 try to persuade 。如：

Who persuaded you to join the club? 谁劝说好你参加这个俱乐部的?

The salesman persuaded us to buy his product. 推销员劝说好我们购买他的产品。

I couldn’t persuade him to change his mind. 我没法劝说他改变主意。

The salesman persuaded us to buy his product. 推销员说服我们买了他的产品。

Who persuaded you to join the society? 谁劝说你参加这个协会的?

Try as I would, I could not persuade him to give up the idea. 尽管我努力这样做，我却没能劝说他放弃这个想法。

He tried to persuade him to change his mind. 他设法劝说他改变主意。

I want to persuade her to overseas with me. 我想劝说她跟我到海外去。

类似地：

kill 的意思是“杀死”，不表示“设法杀死”，要表示后者的意思英语用 try to kill。

prevent 的意思是“阻止”，不表示“设法阻止”，要表示后者的意思英语用 try to prevent。

A。hold 与the sports meet 之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，又根据the day after tomorrow 可知hold 这一动作尚未发生，故用不定式的一般式的被动语态作定语，修饰the sports meet。24. B。玛丽总是被鼓励去游泳的目的是增强腿部的“力量（strength）”。energy精力，活力；protection保护；position 位置。25.

A。该句中make 后接复合宾语，to get there on time 是真正的宾语，故用it 作形式宾语。31. D。根据tomorrow 可知用将来时。这是一个there be句型，故选D项。32. D。题意：塑料燃烧时会散发出（give out）气体，这种气体对人有害并且会严重污染大气。take in 吸收；takeaway 拿走；give up放弃。33.

A。老人认为松鼠不断跳跃的场面很“有趣（funny）”。45.A。很多松鼠如年轻人看到的松鼠一样“跳跃（jump）”。46.D。“很多松鼠错过目标”与“从未看到一只松鼠受伤”之间是转折关系，故选but。47.B。由下文的to take a chance 可知，松鼠“冒险（risk）”去跳跃树枝。48.C。松鼠是在树之间跳跃。49.

　2017高考英语真题阅读理解总结一

　I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn?t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.

　Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

　Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl?s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadn?t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.

　1. The story took place exactly ____ .

　A. in the teacher?s office B. in an exam room

　C. in the school D. in the language lab

　2. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____ .

　A. she had not brought a pen with her B. she had lost her own on her way to school

　C. there was something wrong with her wn D. her own had been taken away by someone

　3. The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy ____ .

　A. to go on writing his paper B. to stop whispering

　C. to leave the room immediately D. to stay behind after the exam

　4. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was(were) ____ .

　A. honesty B. sense of duty C. seriousness D. all of the above

　5. The boy knew everything ____ .

　A. the moment he was asked to stay behind B. when the teacher started talking about honesty

　C. only some time later D. when he was walking out of the room

　我发现一个时间，做一个人能给你带来很多麻烦。当时我在第八年级，我们有一个最后的考验。在测试期间，坐在我旁边的女孩低声说了些什么，但我不明白。我倚在她的方式，发现她想问我是否有额外的笔。她发现她是我的墨水用完，不会写。我碰巧有一个额外的，所以我把它从我的口袋里，放在她的办公桌上。

　后来，已经变成了试卷，老师让我呆在房间里时，所有其他的学生被开除。当我们单独在一起，她开始跟我谈什么是成长;她说，站在自己的两只脚，并负责是多么重要(负责任)为自己的行为。很长一段时间，她谈到诚实，并强调这一事实，当人们做一些不诚实的，他们真的欺骗自己。她让我保证，我会认真考虑所有的事情她说，然后她告诉我我可以离开。我走出房间问她为什么选择了跟我说所有这些事情。

　后来，我发现她认为我在考试中作弊了。当她看到我瘦了跟我旁边的女孩，好像我是从复制的女孩的试卷答案。我试图解释的笔，但她可以说是它似乎非常奇怪，她说我还没有谈到任何关于笔的一天，她跟我就在考试后。即使我试图解释说我只是做女孩的忙，让她用我的笔，我相信她仍然认为，我在考试中作弊了。

　To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

　Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class： he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality (音色) and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.

　The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn?t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher?s work and the actor?s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand (预先). What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.

　A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play： they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don?t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.

　I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

　1. What is the text about ?

　A. How to become a good teacher.

　B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom.

　C. What teachers and actors could learn from each other.

　D. The similarities(相似处) and differences between a teacher?s work and an actor?s.

　2. The word ?audience? in the fourth paragraph means ____ .

　A. students B. people who watch a play

　C. people who not on the stage D. people who listen to something

　3. A good teacher ____ .

　A. knows how to hold the interest of his students B. must have a good voice

　C. knows how to act on the stage D. stands or sits still while teaching

　4. In what way is a teacher?s work different from an actor?s ?

　A. The teacher must learn everything by heart .

　B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor .

　C. He has to deal with unexpected situations .

　D. He has to use more facial expressions .

　5. The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that ____.

　A. students can move around in the classroom

　B. students must keep silent while theatre audience needn?t

　C. no memory work is needed for the students

　D. the students must take part in their teachers? plays

　6. Why is it that some good teachers are unable to play well on the stage ?

　A. Nobody has taught them how to act on the stage .

　B. Their audiences are different .

　C. It is impossible for them to do so much memory work .

　D. They are not used to repeating exactly the same words .

　7. Which of the following is true ?

　A. Teachers have to learn by heart what they are going to say in class .

　B. A teacher cannot decide beforehand what exactly he is going to say in class .

　C. A teacher must speak louder than an actor .

　D. A teacher must have a better memory than an actor .

　要成为一个好老师，你需要一些好演员的天赋;你必须能够抓住观众的注意力和兴趣;你必须是一个明确的扬声器，具有良好的，强有力的，悦耳的声音完全在你的控制之下;你必须能够按照你的教学，以明确其含义。

　看一个好老师，你会看到，他不坐他的课前，他代表整个时间他是教学;他走，用他的胳膊，手和手指来帮助他解释，他的脸表达感情。听他的，你会听到声音，质量(音色)和音乐注意到他的声音总是按照他所说的。

　事实上，一个好老师有一些好演员并不意味着礼物，他一定能够在舞台上表演好，有教师和演员的工作的。他说的话他熟记于心的很重要的差别;他必须准确地重复同样的话每次他扮演某个角色，甚至他的动作，他用自己的发音方式都是事先确定的(预先)。他所要做的是让这些用心学习的言语和行动似乎自然的舞台上。

　一个好老师的工作相当不同的方式。他的听众积极参与他的表演：他们提问和回答问题，他们服从命令，如果他们不理解的东西，他们这么说。老师必须满足听众的需要，这是他的学生。他不能了解他的心，但必须把它作为他走。

　I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.

　我知道有许多老师在课堂上是优秀的演员却不能在舞台上扮演角色，因为他们不能严格按照别人所写的。

　The Doctor?s Call

　There was ice on the road, and the doctor?s car hit a tree and turned over three times. To his surprise, he was not hurt. He got out of the car and walked to the nearest house. He wanted to telephone the garage (汽车修理站) for help. The door was opened by one of his patients.

　?Oh, Doctor.? she said, ?I have only just telephoned you. You must have a very fast car. You have got here very quickly indeed. There has been a very bad accident (事故) in the road outside. I saw it through the window. I am sure the driver will need your help.?

　of the story?

　A. ?Yes, he does need help-your help, not mine.?

　B. ?Another accident? I?ve just had an accident myself!?

　C. ?I got your call and rushed over. I hope I?m not too late.

　D. ?I didn?t get your call. But I?m here and hope I can help.?

　路上有冰，和医生的车撞上一棵树，翻了三倍。让他吃惊的是，他没有受伤。他下了车，走到最近的房子。他想打电话车库(汽车修理站)帮助。门被他的一个病人开。

　?哦，医生。?她说，?我刚刚给你打电话。你必须有一个非常快的车。你有在这里的确很快。有一个非常坏的事故(事故)在道路以外。我透过窗户看见它。我相信司机会需要你的帮助。?

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in LocustValley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.

我在“野生动物志愿者”组织工作，这是蝗虫谷贝利植物园的一个援救教育组织，帮助受伤、流离失所或生病的动物。这样的工作可能会令人心碎；因为无法确定动物是否能活下来。然而，当救援起作用时，这种感觉真的很棒！

I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.

我接到马特顿镇一位女士的求救电话，她在地上发现了一只猫头鹰幼鸟。当我到达时，我看见了一只两三周大的猫头鹰。为了安全起见，它已经被放在一辆大货车上。

I examined the chick and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.

我检查了这只幼鸟，看起来还不错。如果我能找到鸟巢，我也许能把它放回去，但没那么幸运。接下来的工作就是建造一只鸟巢，并固定在一棵树上。

The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.

房主非常乐于助人，给我找来了一只铁丝篮。为了让鸟巢安全舒适，我把一些松枝放进铁丝篮里，然后我把小猫头鹰放进鸟巢里，它很快安静了下来。

Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.

现在最需要的是这只小猫头鹰的父母，但它们不在。我给了房主一份小猫头鹰饥饿尖叫声的录音。这些录音会让猫头鹰父母知道小猫头鹰的存在，也会鼓励小猫头鹰学着尖叫。我把尽可能多的消息告诉了房主，然后回家，看看晚上会有什么情况。

A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH！The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.

这的确是一个紧张的夜晚，但有时大自然的神灵会眷顾我们！房主打电话说小猫头鹰的父母已经对这些录音做出了回应。我开车过去，鸟巢里的小猫头鹰看起来健康又活泼。鸟巢里出现了最令人感动的一幕——小猫头鹰的身边全是午餐！它的父母已经在尽职尽责，而且很可能会继续这样做。
