Most of us have probably heard of Mickey Mouse, Donald duck and many other famous Disney Characters.大概我们大多数人都听说过米老鼠、唐老鸭及其他迪斯尼的著名人物。（1）辨析: hear, hear of, hear from*hear 为动词，有听见和听说之意。作“听见”解，只强调结果。作为：“听说”解，其后一般跟从句。eg:-My grandma cant hear very well.我奶奶听觉不好。-I hear that they miss us very much.我听说他们很想念我们。-I heard him singing in the next room.我听见他在隔壁房间里唱歌。I heard that he was singing in the next room.我听说他在隔壁房间里唱歌。*hear of听说，听到，其后跟名词或从句。eg:-Have you ever heard of Edison? 你听说过爱迪生的故事吗？*heard from 意为“收到.的信”，“得到.消息”。注意：hear from 的宾语应该是“人”，而不是“信”。eg:-Have you heard from Jane recently? 最近你收到过琼的来信吗？（2）famous adj. 意思是“著名的，出名的，极好的辨析：be famous for ,be famous as*be famous for因为而出名/著名，for后接表示特点、特长的名词，表示人或物闻名的原因eg:-Einstein was famous for his Theory of Relativity爱因斯坦以他的相对论而闻名。-Sanya is famous for Tianya Haijiao.三亚以其天涯海角而驰名。-The village is famous for its green tea这个村庄以绿茶而出名。*be famous as以身份出名，as后一般接表示职业的名词。eg:-The village is famous as a green tea producing place这个村庄是产绿茶的地方。-HanHong is famous as a pop singer.韩红以流行歌曲而闻名。3.

It might seem strange to go to a zoo when its dark. 天黑时去动物园好像很奇怪。seem在此为“好像、似乎”之意，其后加形容次。1）seem +形容词 eg:-He seems unhappy today.他今天好像不高兴。 -She seems sad.她似乎很伤心。2） seem to do something.eg:-He seems to be happy. 他好像很高兴-My mother seemed to know that. 我妈妈好像知道那件事。3） It seems that +eg:-It seems that he is happy.=He seems (to be) happy 他好像很快乐-It seems that she is thinking.=It seemed that she was sleeping then.他好像在考虑什么。6. three quarters 四分之三 分数的表达： 分子用基数词，分母用序数词。 三分之一：one third； 分子超过一，分母加s, 三分之二：two thirds 7. population 1).问某地人口是多少？ What is the population of .?

I prefer watching TV to going to the cinema. The children would walk there rather than take a bus. 孩子们宁愿步行去那里而不愿乘公共汽车。The children prefer walking to taking a bus. 3. rather than 不与would连用时，表示客观事实，意为“是而不是；与其不如”。可用instead of替换。它连接的并列成分可以是名词、代词、形容词、介词(短语)、动名词、分句、不定式、动词等。现分述如下： (1) 连接两个名词或代词 He is an explorer rather than/instead of a sailor. 与其说他是一个海员，不如说他是一个探险者。 You rather than I are going to go camping. 是你而不是我要去要野营。 I decided to write rather than telephone. 我决定写信而不打电话。I decided to writing instead of telephoning. 一单项选择 30分( ) 1.
