1﹒動(dòng)詞不定式作目的狀語(yǔ)

不定式在句中作目的狀語(yǔ)時(shí),常譯成“為了”。不定式一般放在被修飾詞之后,但為了強(qiáng)調(diào)目的也可以放在句首。為了加強(qiáng)語(yǔ)氣,不定式前還可以加上in order或so as,即構(gòu)成詞組。例如:
We should do whatever we can (in order/so as) to help them.

Iceland is known for its wonderful ice fields and it has one of the best places in the world to see the Northern Lights. However, in the late 1990s, Iceland was also known as a country with one of the highest numbers of teen drug abuse (濫用) in Europe. “There were large groups of teenagers getting hopelessly drunk,” American researcher Harvey Milkman said.
Noticing their teenagers were out of control, the country decided to do something. With the help of researchers including Harvey Milkman, the government began a special experiment, helping teenagers stay away from drugs. The program, called Youth Iceland, tried to give teens more meaningful and enjoyable things to do. It made kids feel like they were part of something. It also encouraged parents to make time for their children and to actively take part in their lives.
The government spent millions of dollars to support new programs for sports, music, arts and dance. Low-income (低收入的) families—who couldnt afford to sign their kids up for sports programs or art classes—were given a special card of $325 a year. This made it possible for those parents to take part in after-class activities with their children. Besides, kids between the ages of 13 and 16 were not allowed to go outside after 10 pm in winter or after midnight in summer.
Today, Iceland has the lowest rate (比率) of teen drug abuse in Europe. In 1998, before Youth Iceland, 42% of 15- and 16-year-olds reported getting drunk. Last year, that number had dropped to 5%. Those smoking cigarettes dropped from 23% to 3%. At the same time, the percentage of those spending time with their parents on weekdays doubled, from 23% to 46%, and the percentage taking part in organized sports at least four days a week jumped from 24% to 42%.
5. We can infer the problems mentioned in Paragraph 1 are ___ .
A. quite serious B. hard to notice
C. easy to deal with D. common in Europe
6. What is the purpose of Youth Iceland?
A. To test a new program.
B. To prevent teen drug use.
C. To win support from parents.
D. To give teens more free time.
7. The special card for poor families is to ___ .
A. help them live a better life
B. encourage them to do after-class activities
C. provide their kids with formal education
D. make sure their kids feel like they were part of something
8. What can we learn from the numbers in the last paragraph?
A. The program proves to be a success.
B. It is important to help teens develop good habits.
C. Teens in Iceland are well under control nowadays.
D. The problem of teen drug abuse in Iceland has been solved.

Being at the heart of Europes largest enclosed wooded park, Chambord, it was built for King Francis Ⅰ to serve as a hunting lodge. It is one of the worlds best-know castles in the world because of its French Renaissance (文藝復(fù)興) building.

As one of the most famous castles in the Loire Valley, the castle was built during the 11th century on the River Cher. It was passed through many hands. The castle was not destroyed during the French Revolution because it was the only bridge across the river for many miles.

This beautiful castle is made up of two buildings: the Petit Ch?teau built around 1560 for Anne de Montmorency, and the Grand Ch?teau which was destroyed during the French Revolution and rebuilt in the 1870s.

One thing that really gets up on my nose is breathing other peoples cigarette smoke against my will. Its about time that smoking in public places was stamped out once and for all.
There is nothing worse than coming home from a bar or club after an evening out and finding that your clothes smell disgusting, because they have been saturated (浸透著) with cigarette smoke. Im not the only one who is born with this and Im not some born non-smoker. I just wish that I had a choice whether or not I came home smelling like a dirty ashtray (煙灰缸).
Another thing that I really hate is walking down the street behind someone smoking a cigarette. Every time they breathe, out comes that cloud of stale smoke and you walk straight into it and aside from crossing over the other side of the street. There is very little you can do about it. It is not a pleasant experience and it is one I could live quite happily without.
I know there are a lot of people in this country that smoke. Ill be willing to bet that someone who are reading this article are fed up with people who dont smoke. They are always harping on (嘮叨) about their “bad habit” and telling them what to do. The simple fact is that smokers are affecting the health of non-smokers as well as their own.
People die each year just because they have breathed other peoples smoke and that is something we really should be taking seriously. In my opinion a completely ban on smoking in public places is the only way forward.
5. The underlined phrase “gets up on my nose” in the first paragraph probably means “___”.
A. cheers me up
B. makes me angry
C. smells something out
D. turns my nose towards something
6. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?
A. He has an ashtray in his home.
B. He often smokes a lot of cigarettes in a bar.
C. He thinks the smell of cigarettes quite unpleasant.
D. He is unwilling to come home from a bar late at night.
7. What is the author strongly against?
A. Taking in second-hand smoke.
B. Crossing over the other side of the street.
C. Walking across the street with nothing to do.
D. Smoking behind someone while walking down the streets.
8. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Smoking is bad to both smokers and non-smokers.
B. Smoking should be banned in public places.
C. Smoking should be punished heavily.
D. Smoking is a bad habit.

“Can I get a light?” This question is among the most common between smokers. What if this question was to come from an unusual source? The National Health Promotion Foundation uploaded an anti-smoking advertisement onto YouTube. The anti-smoking ad has quickly been known as the “most powerful anti-smoking ad”.
The anti-smoking video, called the “Smoking Kid” features children walking up to adult smokers asking for a light. The children in the ad are actors but the adults smoking are unsuspecting participants in the project.
The video begins with the statement “adults know that smoking is harmful, but dont remind themselves of this fact.” Once a “smoking kid” approaches the adults, every adult asked is shocked that a child with a cigarette in hand is asking for a light. The first adult starts by saying, “Im not giving it to you,” and the video goes on to state “every adult filmed said no and reminded the children that smoking is bad.”
Before going away, the kid hands each adult a booklet after being turned down for a light. The booklet says, “You worry about me, but why not about yourself?” Each adult looks around for the child as their faces are filled with confusion and discomfort.
The video shows that a few of the smokers quickly threw away their cigarettes or put their cigarettes away, showing that this experiment was effective at that moment.

Second-Hand Drinking
“二手酒”
Second-hand drinking is a term used to describe the effects of a persons alcohol misuse on families, co-workers, fellow students and society at large.
“二手酒”指某人過(guò)度飲酒之后對(duì)家人、同事、同學(xué)以及整個(gè)社會(huì)帶來(lái)的一系列影響。
For example, friends and family members are the ones who have to try to keep that person safe, look after them if they pass out, clean up after them if they puke in their car, get over their feelings of being hurt by the mean things theyd said the night before while drunk and live with the constant fighting about the drinking behavior.
比如,朋友和家人得想辦法保證飲酒人的安全;當(dāng)他們喝醉以后得在他們身邊看護(hù)他們;如果不幸他們?cè)谲?chē)上吐了,還得幫忙清理;要是喝醉的人頭天晚上說(shuō)了什么傷人的話,也得自己慢慢“消化”;同時(shí)要不斷跟對(duì)方的飲酒行為做斗爭(zhēng)。
Something most of us do not fully understand is the physical and emotional consequence to the health of a family member or friend caused by repeatedly dealing with second-hand drinking. It is one thing if this is an occasional happenstance (although even a drunk driver could die because of a traffic accident, for example). However, if your family members or friends drink like a fish and get drunk all the time, there could be serious emotional and physical health consequences of them.
我們很多人對(duì)于反復(fù)應(yīng)對(duì)“二手酒”對(duì)其家人和朋友產(chǎn)生的身心影響并不是很了解。偶爾飲酒過(guò)度可能影響不至于很惡劣(當(dāng)然,酒后駕車(chē)的影響可能會(huì)是致命的)。但是,如果你的家人或朋友恰巧是嗜酒如命的人,那么由此產(chǎn)生的身心健康問(wèn)題就可能會(huì)很?chē)?yán)重。
