Eddie was sleeping _______ Millie was reading a magazine.

A. until B. while C. before D. after

B

【解析】

试题分析:句意:埃迪在睡觉,同时米莉正在读一本杂志。until直到; while当……的时候,同时;before在……之前;after在……之后。所以选B。

考点:考查连词。

考点分析: 考点1:连词 连词是一种连接词与词,短语与短语以及句与句的虚词, 它不能独立担任句子成分而只起连接作用。连词主要可分为两类:并列连词和从属连词。
连词用法
一、并列连词用来连接平行的词、词组和分句。并列连词连接的双方是对等的。
常有的并列连词有and, both…and(两者都),  neither…nor(既不……也不……), not only…but also(不但…而且), as well as等。但如果连接的两部分意义不趋向一致,意义有转折的并列连词有:but(但是), however(然而), while (而),only (只不过)。还有表示选择关系的并列连词,
如:or, either…or(或者…或者…), 再有的是连接双方,互为因果,或表示前因后果的连词有:for(因为), so(所以), therefore (因此)等。
例句: She plays not only the piano, but (also) the guitar.
二、从属连词,在初中范围内常常考查引导状语从句、宾语从句的从属连词。其中有时间状语从句,
常用的连接词有:when, while, as, since, before, after, once, as soon as, until, till连
接条件状语的连词有:if, unless, as long as等,而原因状语的连接词有because, since, as, now that (既然)。目的、结果、方式、比较、地点等状语从句的连接词有:so that, so…that, such…that, as…as, than, where… 它们在句子与文章中几乎无处不见。用来连接宾语从句,如:that, if, whether。
例句如下:
Tom will call me as soon as he gets to Shanghai.
The meeting didn't start until  everyone was there.
I want to know if she is going to see a film.
常见考法
    对于连词,主要以单项选择或完形填空的形式从意义和功能(重点是意义)角度考查学生灵活运用连词的能力。在题中,要分清上下句之间的逻辑关系是转折还是并列,或是选择,在从属连词中,会给出我们一个语境,让我们判断该用哪个连词。
典型例题1:  Betty didn't go to see the film yesterday ___ she was ill.
               A.  because   B. but   C.  until    D. If
解析:本题通过语境考查从属连词的用法。只要明白语境,分清选项中四个连词的用法,就能选出正确答案。“她生病了”是“Betty昨天没有去看电影”的原因,显然,应用表示因果关系的 because 。
答案:A
典型例题2:Nancy looked around,          didn't see anybody.
          A  and      B  so     C  but      D because
解析:这是2007年南通的中考题,本题考查并列连词的用法。题干的意思是“向     四周看,但是她没有看到任何人”。四个选项中but是“但是”的意思。
答案:  C
误区提醒
1、neither…nor(既不……也不……), not only…but also(不但…而且), either…or(或者…或者…)连接主语,谓语动词要采用就近原则。例如:Neither you nor he is to blame.(注意:谓语动词采用就近原则,与nor后的词保持一致。)
2、because和 so,but 和though不能同时用。在汉语中它们是一组关联词,经常在一起出现,但在英语中,只能用其中一个。例如:Because he got up late,so he didn't catch the bus.这句话就错了,我们要么去掉Because,要么去掉so。

Nowadays people are making themselves beautiful in Korean ways.

“Thank goodness you have double eyelids(双眼皮). Your parents will save a lot of money.” said a family friend when I was five years old. Double eyelids, which almost all the white people have, are rare among Northeast Asians. Only 25% of South Koreans are born with double eyelids.

I never quite understood how having double eyelids saved my parents money until this summer. When I came back to Seoul, everywhere I noticed cosmetic surgery clinics(整形诊所) and advertisements with South Korean women—tall, thin, with milky skin, long legs, nice big eyes and perfect noses. I found that South Korean beauty meant looking as “white” as possible.

Cosmetic surgery has a kind of magical attraction(吸引) to women — the promise of beauty. Women are often sure that suffering is necessary and worthy in order to be beautiful. This suffering is not for nothing. It is believed that beauty leads to attracting a better-looking partner, which then leads to a better-looking child and a better life.

Appearance is starting to be more important in work places. People with good appearance can have more chances. For example, my 29-year-old brother, who is slim and very tall, gets more job chances than his best friend, who is short and heavy, though both of them came from the same college, had the same good marks in their studies. In fact, many South Koreans believe that physical beauty equals happiness.

1.How many South Koreans are born with double eyelids?

_____________________________________________________________________

2.When did the writer understand having eyelids saved his parents money?

_____________________________________________________________________

3.Does cosmetic surgery have much attraction to women according to the writer?

4.What kind of people can get more job chances?

5.What do you think of cosmetic surgery?
