[知识精要]
一、动词不定式作定语
不定式作定语通常放在其修饰的名词或代词之后,和被修饰的名词或代词之间是主谓关系、动宾关系、同位关系或修饰关系。
1.主谓关系
The future to greet us will be bright.
我们的未来会十分美好的。
He is always the first person to come and the last one to leave.
他总是第一个来,最后一个离开。
2.动宾关系
The teacher left us a lot of problems to solve.
老师留给我们许多问题要解决。
He can find no one to make friends with.
他找不到可以交朋友的人。
[名师点津] 由于动词不定式与其修饰的词之间往往有动宾关系,因此,如果该不定式中的动词是不及物动词,其后应有必要的介词。
She has a child to take care of.
她有一个孩子要照看。
3.同位关系
He broke his promise to write to his parents regularly.
他没有遵守诺言定期给他的父母写信。
We students should have the courage to face any difficulty.
我们学生应该有勇气面对任何困难。
4.修饰关系
Now it is time to begin our class.
现在是上课的时间了。
I need somewhere to take a nap.
我需要一个地方打个盹。
二、动词不定式作结果状语
动词不定式作结果状语多强调意外的或者不愿意看到的结果,常见于下列句型。
1.so...as to do
Would you be so kind as to lend me your bicycle?
把你的自行车借给我好吗?
2.such...as to do
We are not such fools as to believe him.
我们还没蠢到竟会相信他。
3....enough to do
He didn’t run fast enough to catch the train.
他跑得不够快,没赶上火车。
4.only to do
He lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet.
他搬起石头砸了自己的脚。
5.too...to do
His eyesight is too poor to read such small letters.
他的视力太差了,不能看这么小的字。
[名师点津] too...to...结构中的形容词如果是eager,pleased,happy,ready等词,动词不定式不表示结果,也没有否定的
意思。
The boy was too eager to get a geography book.
那个男孩非常急切地想要得到一本地理书。

Earthquake prediction has long been a challenge for scientists around the globe since the geological phenomenon can occur at any time and any location with little or no warning.The chance of a powerful earthquake can only be determined through long-term forecasts in a general area or region on Earth.
Throughout history,no individual or group has yet successfully predicted a major earthquake:including its date and time,location and magnitude.These are the three elements essential to make an earthquake,according to the United States Geological Survey(USGS).While small earthquakes occur all the time,high-intensity earthquakes are rare but is something to watch out.
Now,a new study led by researchers from Pennsylvania State University found a potential solution to the dilemma of earthquake forecast:ancient underthrust rocks.Rocks buried deep in ancient subduction (俯冲) zones—where tectonic (地壳的) plates bump with each other—could help scientists make better predictions of how these zones behave during the years between major earthquakes.
According to the USGS,we are still uncertain how we can make such a feat and are not expecting to perfectly predict major earthquakes any time in the foreseeable future.
Although some people in the past said they could predict earthquakes,the U.S. government agency asserts these are all failed predictions.Their predictions are neither grounded on scientific fact nor passed through the scientific method.
Since authorities in the field of geology and other related areas acknowledged that earthquake prediction is still far from being completed,scientists continue to further understand this mystery.Unlike weather forecasts of hurricanes and other storms,earthquakes have no concrete parameters (参数) that would indicate that they would occur in the coming hours,days,weeks or months.
Regardless,the Penn State researchers have made progress in the dilemma by understanding the underthrust rocks in ancient subduction zones.Determining this area could help scientists better predict the behavior of these zones during periods between major earthquakes.Evidence of their findings was based on clues from rock formations in Alaska and Japan.

答案:B
解析:词义猜测题。根据第四段最后一句可知,作者仍然觉得现阶段无法成功地准确预测大地震,而这句话和画线词组为并列结构,应该传递的是一致的含义。由此可知,画线词组make such a feat与achieve success“取得成功”意思一致。故选B项。
3.Why can hurricanes be accurately forecasted?
A. Because they can be tracked through the specific data.
B. Because they usually happen in some particular places.
C. Because they can be confirmed by the practical experience.
D. Because they often take place during hot summer time.
