This simple adjective only has one syllable, so you39。故選C。但早在19世紀(jì)，人們就開(kāi)始把它用作形容詞，我們今天用它來(lái)形容有趣的時(shí)間或有趣的地方。根據(jù)第三段中的”Until the early 19th century, it was mostly just a noun, and it gained its meaning as amusement in the 18th century. But as early as the 1800s, people began using it as an adjective, the way we39。故選C。一般規(guī)則是單音節(jié)單詞詞尾添加后綴，多音節(jié)單詞則需要添加more或most。 or 39。根據(jù)第一段中的“The general rule is that onesyllable words get the suffix, and polysyllabic words get 39。沒(méi)有必要僅僅因?yàn)槲覀冞^(guò)去不像現(xiàn)在這樣使用一個(gè)詞就認(rèn)為它違反了語(yǔ)言的一般規(guī)則。The paratives and superlatives of adjectives.【答案】 （1）C（2）C（3）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，介紹了英語(yǔ)形容詞比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)中，單詞fun的比較級(jí)和最高級(jí)變化規(guī)則而展開(kāi)。A general rule of English grammar.C.some dictionaries considered it incorrect（3）What can be the best title of the passage? A.the word was originally used as a nounB.t used to use funner or funnest partly because ______________. A.Put more or most before polysyllabic adjectives.D.Put more or most before onesyllable adjectives.B.s no need to insist that a word breaks the mon rules of language just because we didn39。 The English language is chockfull of uncertain grammar rules。 in fact, in formal writing, you39。t follow the rules of real adjectives. So they also agree that the answer to is funner a word? is yes. If you want to consider fun, as an adjective, then funner is indeed a word, as is funnest. But this doesn39。 as an adjective…but, like, it39。d describe a fun time or a fun place today.t sound quite right. But…why? Fun is one syllable, so why do we choose more fun as the parative—especially considering that the similar word funny, which has more syllables than fun, uses the suffixes with no problem?d think you39。s the case, you will add the suffixes and change the y to an i. You probably know the basics of how paratives(比較級(jí)) and superlatives(最高級(jí)) work in the English language. When paring something, you often add an er to the end of the parative adjective. The general rule is that onesyllable(音節(jié)) words get the suffix(后綴), and polysyllabic words get more or most. That is, unless the twosyllable word ends in a y。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇教育類(lèi)閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。所以，文章主要闡述年輕人的幸福取決于在工作中改變世界；再根據(jù)第二段中的“Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15 percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own.”對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)，改變世界是如此重要，以至于45% 的人說(shuō)他們?cè)敢饨邮?5% 的減薪去為一個(gè)對(duì)社會(huì)或環(huán)境有影響的組織工作，58% 的人說(shuō)他們?cè)敢饨邮軠p薪去一個(gè)與他們價(jià)值觀相同的組織工作。 （4）考查主旨大意。可知，多數(shù)的畢業(yè)生都認(rèn)可工作產(chǎn)生的社會(huì)影響對(duì)他們而言是重要的。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“One reason for the emphasis(強(qiáng)調(diào)) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to realworld problems.”強(qiáng)調(diào)改善世界的一個(gè)原因可能與大學(xué)文化有關(guān)，大學(xué)文化鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生將他們的學(xué)習(xí)與現(xiàn)實(shí)世界的問(wèn)題聯(lián)系起來(lái)。故選B。根據(jù)第三段中的“Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates”除此之外，調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)女生比男生更有可能把社會(huì)影響放在第一位；以及“the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.”以前的一項(xiàng)研究結(jié)果顯示，數(shù)學(xué)和科學(xué)專(zhuān)業(yè)女學(xué)生所占的比例更有可能說(shuō)她們進(jìn)入這些領(lǐng)域是為了有所作為，可以推斷出兩項(xiàng)調(diào)查的結(jié)果是一致的。t Depend on Money Bee More Interested in Challenging Jobs Graduates Would Take a Pay Cut to Make a Difference【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）C（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，通過(guò)工作能有一個(gè)積極的社會(huì)影響對(duì)年輕人的幸福至關(guān)重要。 education has on their children.（3）What can you learn from the passage? people will surely gain happiness if they can make a difference in their work. than half of the college seniors will take a pay cut to work with the same values. college graduates believe it important to have a positive social influence in work. graduates are all putting more social influence in first place than male graduates.（4）Which could be the best title for the passage?
