【知識點】
1. could/can 不能與be able to 連用
這首題考查的是could的用法，在復習"could"這個單詞時要重點搞清楚他和其他情態動詞的區別，尤其在虛擬語氣中。考試可以常考的^^
2. 第二題就不講了，大家查字典就OK了
3. haste, hurry和speed的同義詞辨析。
首先，"haste"是指急速的行動，其原因可能是環境壓力，也可能是強烈的愿望。
然后，"hurry"是指倉促、忙亂的動作。
最后，"speed"是指快速的動作，它還暗指不忙亂，有效率。
那么，大家懂了沒^^
4. kid
n. 小孩，兒?，少年
v. 欺騙，開玩笑：Don't kid me.別欺騙我。
5. 熟記sense的常考短語
make sense有意義;意思清楚;有道理
make no sense無意義
make sense of 理解;懂;明白
in a sense在某一方面;就某種意義來說
a sense of humor幽默感
6. social和sociable的辨析
7. 這詞考的是responsibility的搭配，show/shoulder/take/assume responsibility for 對……負責
8. 區別alone和lonely。
alone指獨自一人的，而lonely指孤單的、孤獨的。(個人覺得lonely有感情色彩，而alone只是敘述事實而已)
9. in case 以防

characteristic指特殊的、易于辨認的特性或特征
