易错点拨survive本身已表示“幸存;幸免于”,因而不要在其宾语前加多余的in或from。
(1)At the hospital,he discovered he had four broken bones.While still recovering from his accident,he was dealt a second blow.(2019·山东德州模拟)

[同义句改写]
(2)I’m sorry to give you so much trouble.
→I’m sorry to put you to so much trouble.

→We found his office without (any) trouble.
make it to到达;赶上
(1)I just made it to the bathroom before throwing up.

—Set the alarm for 5 o’clock,and you’ll make it.成功,搞定
(4)I’m sorry.I didn’t make it to your party last night.能够出席(或到场)
易错点拨
在make it短语中,it没有意义,只起着充当句子成分的作用,类似短语有:take it easy 别紧张;when it comes to当谈到……;catch it受责备;stick it out坚持到底,等等。
in search of寻找
(1)I’m a scientist who studies animals such as apes and monkeys.I was searching for these three western lowland gorillas I’d been observing.(2018·全国Ⅲ)

(3)[同义句改写] We are in search of an experienced and reliable producer of jewellery.
①We are makingasearchfor an experienced and reliable producer of jewellery.

易错点拨in search of寻找,搜寻,在句中常作表语或目的状语,名词search前不加限定词;若search前加a/the/one’s等限定词时,of一般换成for。
pick up捡起;(偶然)学会;收听,接收;(用车)接;好转;感染;恢复健康/精神;加快[写出下列句子中pick up的汉语意思]
(1)Jack picked up his hat and went out.捡起,拿起

While your pet fish may appear to be unaware of your presence,chances are that it knows you extremely well and can probably even identify you from a crowd of human faces!
To test if this was accurate,some scientists decided to study archerfish(喷水鱼).These animals don’t have a sophisticated(复杂的) brain that is necessary to recognize the slight differences between human facial features.
They began by presenting four archerfish with images of two human faces.Initially,the fish spit at both.However,they soon learned spitting water at the one selected by the researchers earned them a food treat.After that,they focused primarily on that image.The researchers then took the experiment one step further by introducing 44 other human faces to the mix.
To the researchers’ astonishment,the trained archerfish were able to recall the learned image almost 81% of the time.And this accuracy improved to 86% when the researchers made the identification even harder,by replacing the colored photos with a set of black and white images and hiding the shape of the head.
The results of the study suggest that though having tiny brains,archerfish may have developed high visual discrimination abilities.While it is contrary to the previous theory that a sophisticated brain is necessary to recognize human faces,the researchers believe they do not recognize faces by recalling complex facial information like gender and identity,but more likely by discriminating between detailed patterns.Even so,the fact that these archerfish could “remember” those faces demonstrates that they have an impressive memory for details that lasts much longer than the originally-thought 3 seconds!
This is not the first time researchers have realized how “smart” fish are.Previous studies have shown that fish can recognize those fish they have “socialized” with previously,and even recall complex three-dimensional maps of their surroundings.

(2018·安徽江淮十校联考)
For many foreigners who have visited or worked in China,one of their strong impressions is that the country is very safe.Here,you can go out alone late at night to eat at a food stand without feeling nervous.You can also let your younger children ride public transport all by themselves without worrying about their safety.
This year,2018,marks a special anniversary of the launching of the reform and opening up policy,which took place two score years ago in China.Over the past few decades,the country has achieved fast economic growth,while social peace and stability have been maintained(维护) to the fullest extent at the lowest cost.Of course,there are still unsolved problems.However,from the overall aspect,Chinese society remains harmonious and safe.In my eyes,this should be attributed(归于) largely to the cultural,economic and political environment of the country.
A society can be stable and orderly only when its people can lead a prosperous(繁荣的) life.After the introduction of the reform and opening up policy,China achieved fast economic growth and significant scientific and technological progress.In the meantime,the Chinese government has taken various measures such as those to fight corruption,reduce poverty and promote the rule of law,in order to uphold social equity.Thanks to these efforts,the potential factors that might cause social problems have been greatly reduced.
Apart from government departments including the police and judicial(司法的) departments,the general public also contributes much to social governance.The development of information technology has created new ways of linking the police and the public.By jointly fighting crimes in such ways,the public and the police have developed an ever-increasing level of mutual trust and positive interaction.
The safety and stability in China did not come easily.Rather,it should be attributed to the efforts made by 1.3 billion people.For both Chinese and foreigners living in the country,the sense of safety and security is very precious.。
