59. He wisely refused to spend his money. 分析：本题比较费解，重点在于分析wise和refuse 之间的关系。本句中的wisely 指的是refused to spend his money这一件事，而不是refuse 这一个词。注意wise 的意思是“明智”，这句话可译为：他非常明智地拒绝了花钱。Cf.: （1）He resolutely / firmly / gracefully / politely refused the invitation. （2）He stupidly refused to be taught by these mistakes. （1）中的几个副词都是用来修饰refuse本身，而（2）中的stupidly 修饰的是refused to be taught from these lessons这一事件的意义。这一句相当于 It is stupid of him to be taught by these mistakes. 他很愚蠢，没有从错误中吸取教训。 60. They stood chatting together as easily and naturally as _________. as …as 一般用法： He ran as fast as he could. The situation is not so bad as you suggest. 在后一个as之后应接一个含can / could等情态动词的从句，一般情况下后面从句的主语与主句主语一致。本题中的 it 指的是前面的内容。 61. Who told the news to the teacher? （1） John did.（2） / John did it. （3）John did so.（4） John did that. 以上四种说法都可以，都可用来代指前面说过的话。其中（1）是（2）的省略说法。 而A中的 this 不可以。This 用来指下文的内容。 62. Quality is what counts most. what = sth. that The church will be built on what used to be a playground. 63.一般现在时的特殊用法 （1）谈论文章或作品所涉及内容时（学术性论文中较常用）： The author argues that thought patterns vary between people of different culture background. （2）戏剧性现在时：一般现在时描述过去时间的事实。这种用法多见于叙述文或口述往事，以增加描述的生动和真实感。He sits down, shivers a little, and the clock outside strikes twelve. He says the river rises higher and higher, breaks the bank and is filling all low places. (3) 描述正在舞台上、运动场上等正在发生的场景。如： Led into the hall, towards the right corner, is a large oblong window with a rounded top. Tall buildings cluster tightly round the outside of the window, so that even in the daytime, the room is over dark. (4) 报纸题目和小说章节中 Mass murderer escapes. 大屠杀凶犯在逃。 VII. Go to Bristol 第七章 去布利斯托途中 64. 倍数（分数）的表示方法： （1）…times + as + adj. + as We have three times as many books as you do. (2) …times + that in / of… The number of books in our library is three times that in theirs. (3) … the size / amount / length of… The newly broadened square is
