Cars are an important part of life in the United out a car most people feel that they are even if a person is poor,he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.
Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large probably didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American car made the United States a nation on it helped make the United States what it is today.
There are three main reasons that the car became so popular in the United t of all,the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of a car people can go anyplace without spending a lot of money.
The second reason that cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public -distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the days there is a good system of air-service provided by it is too expensive to be used frequently.
The third reason is the most important American spirit of independence is what really made cars icans don’t like to wait for a bus,or a train or even a don’t like to have to follow an exact schedule.A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.
The gas shortage has caused a big problem for the answer will not be a bigger system of public real solution will have to be a new kind of car,one that does not use so much gas.

Ⅲ.詞語辨析
ible,probable,likely adj. 可能的
(1)possible強調客觀上潛在的可能性，但也常常暗示“實際上希望很小”。
is a possible choice.
他是一個可以考慮的人選。（根據客觀情況，而非説話者臆斷）
possible (反義詞 impossible)作表語時，前面通常不能用表示人的名詞或代詞作主語，常用句式為：
It is possible for sb. to do sth.
It is possible that-clause.
is possible to finish the work.(×)
It is possible for him to finish the work.(√)
(2)probable主要用來指有根據、合情理、值得相信的事物，帶有“大概，很可能……”的意味，語氣較possible強。
was probable that Tom told his father all about the matter.
湯姆可能把這事的全部經過告訴了他父親。（有幾分根據的推測）
probable(反義詞improbable)作表語時，通常也不能用表示人的名詞或代詞作主語，常用句式為：
It is probable that-clause.
sth. be probable.
不能用It is probable for sb. to do sth.的結構。
is probable that the winner will get a prize.(√)
It is probable for the winner to get a prize.(×)
Colder weather is probable.
(3)likely表示有充分根據的推測，側重從表面看，某事很可能發生，與probable意思較近。有時兩者可以通用，含義區別不大。如：
It is likely/probable that we shall meet with some opposition.
我們多半會遇到一些阻力的。
但likely暗示從表面跡象判斷，某事可能發生或可能是真的，而probable則意味着經過權衡正反兩方面的理由後，相信某事是真實的，或大概會發生。
looks a likely field for mushrooms.
這裏看起來適合長蘑菇。
The probable winner is Tom,not Jack.
有希望取勝的是湯姆，而不是傑克。（意即一方實力顯然優於另一方）
當likely表示“有可能成功”的意思時，不能用probable代替。
is the most likely time to find him at home?
什麼時候最有可能在家找到他？
likely(反義詞為unlikely)前面可以用表示人的名詞或代詞作主語，也可以用表示物的名詞或代詞作主語。但非人稱代詞it作形式主語時，不能用於“it is likely for sb. to do sth.”句式，此時它與probable一樣，後面接that從句。
It be likely that-clause.
e.g.不能説It is likely for him to come.
應説He is likely to come.
or:It is likely that he will come.
age,baggage
兩詞都可表示“行李”，都是不可數名詞。
luggage是英國英語，baggage是美國英語，表示隨身攜帶的各種行李的總稱。詢問有多少行李時用how much。
much baggage/luggage do you have?
指多少件行李用a piece of 或an article of。
had three pieces/articles of luggage(baggage).
他帶了三件行李。
h,grasp,seize,snatch
（1）catch的普通用法有“設法抓住、捉住”的意思。
e.g.I caught him by the ear.
我揪住了他的耳朵。
The police caught the thief as he ran.
小偷逃跑時被警察抓住了。
(2)grasp表示“牢牢地抓住”。
grasped his gun and rushed out.
湯姆抓起槍就衝了出去。
She grasped the rope tightly with her hands.
她雙手緊緊地抓住繩子。
(3)seize指“突然用力抓住使之不便逃脱”。
policeman seized the thief by the sleeve.
警察抓住了小偷的袖子。
He seized the gun from the enemy soldier.
他從敵兵手中奪過了槍。
(4)snatch表示迅速的拉扯動作，出其不意地“抓取”。
thief snatched her handbag and ran off.
小偷搶走了她的小提包就跑了。
He snatched the letter from me.
他從我手中搶走了信。
Ⅳ.能力訓練
1.單句改錯
(1)He’s in the wool businesses.
答案：將businesses改為business。business表示“生意，商業，行業”等時，為不可數名詞。
(2)She’s treated now;she should be back to normal health in a few weeks.
答案：將treated改為cured。cure和treat都含“醫治”之意，但cure有“治療，痊癒”之意，側重於結果，而treat含“治療，處理”之意，側重於動作。
(3)Their whole life was a constant battle for poverty.
答案：把for改為against。for後面所接賓語應該是鬥爭的目的，against後所接賓語應該是鬥爭的對象。
(4)Do you think that impossible for us to go there by water?
答案：把that改為it。代替不定式或從句在句中作形式賓語時，應該用it而不能用that。
(5)Half us are on the night shift.
答案：在Half後加of。在人稱代詞前，要用half of這個結構。
2.翻譯填空
(1)老師的言行對學生有很大的影響。
Teachers’ words and deeds ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ their students.
答案：have a great effect on
(2)我的朋友並不個個都吸煙。
