一、语法
The Passive Voice(2)
一般将来时被动语态
被动语态由助动词“be+过去分词”构成，其时态则通过be的不同形式体现出来。将来时态的被动语态由will/shall+be+过去分词构成，表示某事将要被干。一般将来时被动语态的各种句式：
主语+will/shall+be+过去分词+其它成分
The flower will be watered tomorrow.
主语+will/shall not+be+过去分词+其它成分
The flower will not be watered tomorrow.
Will/Shall+主语+ be+过去分词+其它成分
Will the flower be watered tomorrow?
When will the flower be watered?
二、聚焦高频考点
1.would rather和动词原形连用。否定形式为would rather not do sth.如：
I would rather leave now.
would rather do ... than do ...表示宁愿做什么而不愿做什么
如：They would rather die than surrender.
would rather和句子连用。通常动词用过去时，是虚拟语气。在表示以前的动作时，用had done。如：
I'd rather you went home now.
I'd rather he hadn't done that.
2.join in多指参加小规模的活动如“球赛，游戏”等。如：
Come on, join in the ball game.
He's going to join in the talk tonight.
take part in 指参加会议或群众性活动等，着重说明句子主语参加该项活动并在活动中发挥作用。如：
We'll take part in social practice during the summer vacation.
They often take part in outdoor activities.
Part前有形容词修饰时，要用不定冠词。如：
Lincoln took an active part in politics.
3.stand for代表，特征。如：
What do GRE stand for?
The dove stands for peace.
stand for赞同，支持，拥护。如：
Almost everyone in the world stand for peace.
stand for容忍。如：
She can't stand for his rudeness.
4.the same as意为“同……一样”。如：
Many of the sports were the same as they are now.
the same ... as意为“与……一样”，后跟从句。指的是两样东西。如：
The pen is the same as you bought yesterday.
the same ... that意为“与……一样，后跟从句。指的是同一件东西。如：
That's the same pen I lost.
5.prefer ... to ... 喜欢……而不喜欢……(to是介词)
eg: I prefer swimming to running.= His words were not paid any attention to.
prefer后可直接加名词，代词，动名词等；prefer to后跟动词原形。如：
Which one do you like, tea, milk or coffee?
I prefer milk.
Do you want to take a taxi?
No, I prefer to walk.
Do you like swimming?
Yes, but I prefer playing running
6.every可与表示数量的词连用，表示时间或空间的间隔。如：
Every four years athletes from all over the world take part in the Olympic Games.
I usually go to the cinema every three days(every third day).
Every后可接few, 但不能接a few, 因every一词已包含a之意；every后也不能接some, several, many等词。every后接序数词时，则修饰单数可数名词。
7.from/in/on/at/about/+which引导定语从句
关系代词which, whom在定语从句中作介词的宾语时，介词一般放在关系代词之前，有时也放在定语从句后面。
The train on which I was traveling was late.
The house in which the old man lived was on fire last night.
The old Olympic Games from which the modern games came began around the year 776 BC in Greece.
8.more ... than有两种含义：一是普通的比较级；另一种表示“与 其说是……”, “是……而不是”，指对同一事物的两种属性进行选择。
She is more diligent than wise. 与其说她聪明，不如说她勤奋。
三、常用词语和句型
1.prefer ... to ...喜欢……而不喜欢……, to是介词
I prefer swimming to running.
Prefer后可跟名词，代词，动名词
Would you like to take a taxi?
No, I prefer walking.
Prefer to后跟动词原形
I prefer to swim.
Which one do you like, tea, milk or coffee?

2.do one's best to sth.=try one's best to sth.尽某人最大努力做某事
As your best friend, I surely will try my best to help you.
As long as you try your best, you'll succeed.
3.such as 意为“例如，诸如”，与for example相似，但for example后常接完整的句子,只举一个例子，而such as后常接两个或以上的词或词组。
eg: He knows several foreign languages, such as French and Japanese.
4.mean to do sth.: 打算作某事
What do you mean to do with it?
mean doing sth.: 意味着做某事

5.win后接战争，比赛，奖品等名词作宾语，不能接竞争对手作宾语；而beat后常接竞争对手，意为“打败, 击败”。
