英语名词辨析考点解读

――You’d better take more exercise.

A. strength B. force C. energy D. power

【解析】C 句意:许多学生精力充沛,而我总是精疲力竭。strength力气,主要指“肌肉力量以及物体的承重力或抗拉力”;force 指“能量的应用”即释放的能量及其冲击力;energy指“活力”;power指可供使用的能量,如意志力、影响力、控制力。full of energy(充满活力)与后文exhausted(精疲力竭的)相对。故选C项。

A. position; difficulties B. post; hard

【解析】A 句意:我接了一份教6岁至12岁学生的工作,这些学生因从一个学校去到另一个学校有着严重的学习困难和行为。position职位;difficulties困难;post职位;job工作;trouble困难;occupation可以泛指各种专业。position与post都表示职位的区别: post更倾向于job,它更强调一份工作,而且使用环境并不十分正式;而position更强调“职位” 这不仅仅代表了一个位置,一份工作,同时也带有“负责任的”,“职称”等比较正式的隐藏含义,所以第一空填position;difficulty表示具体的困难时是可数名词,表示抽象概念“困难”时是不可数名词,题干指学习和行为困难,故用复数“difficulties”;故选A项。

8. The discovery of the new drug is of great _______ to people who suffer from heart problems.

A. appreciation B. significance

C. satisfaction D. guidance

【解析】B 句意:新药物的发现对患心脏病的人极其重要。appreciation欣赏,感激;significance重要性;satisfaction满意;guidance指导。这里考查be of +抽象名词,相当于be + adj.,故选B项。
