一、（）favourable conditions, He should have performed well.
A.With? B.But for? C.Under? D.Due to
本題考察虛擬語(yǔ)氣，尤其是考察under引導(dǎo)的狀語(yǔ)成分的虛擬語(yǔ)氣。under favourable condotions 是指“要是在有利的條件下...”due to 不能導(dǎo)致虛擬語(yǔ)氣的產(chǎn)生。B也可以導(dǎo)致虛擬語(yǔ)氣 但是句意不通順，故選C。
二、save 的熟詞僻義＋except與except for 的區(qū)別。
save 本身也可表除...之外
eg. She gave me that pen save this one.
還可以save that也表除...之外
eg. We knew little about him save that he had a brother.
except一般是同類中的一個(gè)是例外，except for是指大范圍中的小類事物為例外，不是同類哦
eg. everybody was invited except me.
except for an old lady, the bus was empty.
三、sb had hoped that...通常表示過(guò)去未實(shí)現(xiàn)的愿望，比如，He had hoped that he could have been a doctor.他本可以成為一名醫(yī)生。那么，有三個(gè)可以表示had hoped相同意思的詞組你知道是什么嘛？
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她本打算去買蘋(píng)果的。
四、惡性循環(huán)與良性循環(huán)
惡性腫瘤與良性腫瘤。
惡性循環(huán)：vicious circle/cycle
良性循環(huán)：virtuous circle/cycle
惡性腫瘤： benign tumor
良性腫瘤：malign tumor
五、take on這里詞組你知多少。（提示：take sb on有兩個(gè)，take sth on也有兩個(gè)。）
take sb on
1.特指跟自己實(shí)力差不多的或者比自己更為優(yōu)秀的人 競(jìng)爭(zhēng)
2.雇傭某人
take sth on
1.承擔(dān)（職責(zé)、責(zé)任...）
2.呈現(xiàn)出...

七、virtue的用法
用含有virtue的詞組表達(dá)由于，憑借和贊揚(yáng)...的好處。
由于，憑借：by virtue of
如：He won the first prize by virtue of his remarkable skills.
憑借卓越技術(shù)，他贏得了一等獎(jiǎng)。
贊揚(yáng)...好處extol/preach/proclaim the virtue of...
She goes on lecture tours to preach the virtues of free-market capitalism.她進(jìn)行巡回演講，宣揚(yáng)自由市場(chǎng)資本主義的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
