一、（）favourable conditions, He should have performed well.

A.With  B.But for  C.Under  D.Due to

本题考察虚拟语气，尤其是考察under引导的状语成分的虚拟语气。under favourable condotions 是指“要是在有利的条件下...”due to 不能导致虚拟语气的产生。B也可以导致虚拟语气 但是句意不通顺，故选C。

二、save 的熟词僻义＋except与except for 的区别。

save 本身也可表除...之外

eg. She gave me that pen save this one.

还可以save that也表除...之外

eg. We knew little about him save that he had a brother.

except一般是同类中的一个是例外，except for是指大范围中的小类事物为例外，不是同类哦

eg. everybody was invited except me.

except for an old lady, the bus was empty.

三、sb had hoped that...通常表示过去未实现的愿望，比如，He had hoped that he could have been a doctor.他本可以成为一名医生。那么，有三个可以表示had hoped相同意思的词组你知道是什么嘛？

1.sb had meant/planned to do sth

2.sb meant/planned to have done sth

3.sb was/were to have done sth.

She was to have bought apples她本打算去买苹果的。

四、恶性循环与良性循环

恶性肿瘤与良性肿瘤。

恶性循环：vicious circle/cycle

良性循环：virtuous circle/cycle

恶性肿瘤： benign tumor

良性肿瘤：malign tumor

五、take on这里词组你知多少。（提示：take sb on有两个，take sth on也有两个。）

take sb on

1.特指跟自己实力差不多的或者比自己更为优秀的人 竞争

2.雇佣某人

take sth on

1.承担（职责、责任...）

2.呈现出...

He takes on a feeling of happiness.

七、virtue的用法

用含有virtue的词组表达由于，凭借和赞扬...的好处。

由于，凭借：by virtue of

如：He won the first prize by virtue of his remarkable skills.

凭借卓越技术，他赢得了一等奖。

赞扬...好处extol/preach/proclaim the virtue of...
