93. I _____ her not to walk on the thin ice but she would not listen to me.
　　A. warned    B. persuaded    C. suggested    D. noticed
　　[答案]A. warned.
　　[注釋]warn sb. (not) to do sth.警告某人（不）做某事。
Suggest不能接sb. to do sth。persuade sb.(not) to do sth.說(shuō)服、某人（不）做某事；本題中不能選D. persuaded, 因該動(dòng)詞強(qiáng)調(diào)行為的結(jié)果。從邏輯上講，既然“說(shuō)服了”，那么與she wouldn't listen to me就前后矛盾了。如果把句子該為：I tried to persuade her not to walk on the thin ice but she wouldn't listen to me.(我極力勸她不要在薄冰上走，但她不愿聽(tīng)我的話。)，那么就符合邏輯了。

　　A. trouble    B. annoyance    C. disgust    D. worry
　　[答案]D. worry
　　[注釋]worry既可作動(dòng)詞用，也可以作名詞用，意思是“憂慮”，后接介詞about或over。worry over 比worry about對(duì)某事的憂慮更為持久，更為專注，如：He worries over the least thing that goes wrong.(他總是惟恐有一點(diǎn)小事出錯(cuò)。)
96. The microphone enabled them to keep in touch, in other words, it made it _____ for them to contact each other.

　　[答案]C. possible
　　[注釋]able有才能的，有能力的，指人的才智，而且是受過(guò)實(shí)際鍛煉的才干。Capable“有才能的，能勝任的”(有褒、貶 二義)，如：He is capable of anything.(他什么事都干得出來(lái)。)此句含有明顯得貶義。此外，作表語(yǔ)時(shí)，able接不定式，capable接of. capable還有一意思是“有可能 的”，例如：The car is capable of being repaired .（這輛汽車(chē)是有可能修好的。）用于此義時(shí)，be capable of 后常接被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)動(dòng)名詞或有動(dòng)作意義的名詞：The situation is capable of improvement .possible 強(qiáng)調(diào)客觀可能性，“可能的”程度比probable"大概的，很可能的低一些。
　　[注意]likely與possible在結(jié)構(gòu)搭配上的區(qū)別。Likely可用于下列句型中：1)It is likely that...例如：It is highly likely that he will succeed.（很可能他會(huì)成功。）2)think(feel, consider)it likely ...例如：I think it likely that we will ultimately get a certain amount of money.3)be likely to do sth.例如：He is likely to see you again .但下面的句型是錯(cuò)誤的，It is likely for sb to do sth.所以think it likely for sb. to do sth.也是錯(cuò)誤的，故本題不能選likely.

　　A. worth their while    B. it worthwhile
　　C. it worth             D. it worthy
