15.-Oh,really?Can Doris read through it in such a short time?
-She covered the English novel ______ it took me,still less a simple story.(  )
A.a half timeB.the half timeC.half a timeD.half the time

分析 -哦,真的吗?Doris能在这么短的时间读完它吗?
-她读完这本英语小说花的时间比我少一半,更不用说一个简单的故事了.

解答 答案:D.
一半的时间英语习惯上说:half the time.倍数的表达一般是倍数放在前面,后面再跟相应的名词;read through意为"通读; 仔细阅读";still less相当于let alone意为"更不用说".

点评 另外要注意动词cover的意思较多,常用的有覆盖,遮盖;可引申表示"走完(一段路程)""够付(费用)";本句中的cover意为"读完".

8.On a hill 600 feet above the surrounding land,we watch the lines of rain move across the scene,the moon rise over the hills,and the stars appear in the sky.The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house.
    Every window in our wooden house has a view,and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before.Each look reminds us where we are.

    The air is clean and fresh.The water from the well has a pleasant taste,and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink.Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water,they never say anything against that.
    The seasons change just outside the door. We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars'(杨树)putting out the first green leaves of spring.The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears,and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter.A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake.
