　　213.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.說服、某人(不)做某事;本題中不能選D.persuaded,因該動詞強調(diào)行為的結(jié)果。從邏輯上講，既然“說服了”，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，但她不愿聽我的話。)，那么就符合邏輯了。

　　[注意]warn sb.of sth.警告某人有......。

　　214.When products made in factories_____,they are thrown away as garbage.

　　[注釋]wear out本題中意指(become useless form continued use of wear)用壞，穿破，如：The machine will soon wear out.(這機器即將用壞。)come to and end(結(jié)束)，put...to use(投入使用),use up(用完)，come into use(開始投入使用)。

　　215.She is making herself ill with_____over her son's future.

　　A.trouble B.annoyance C.disgust D.worry

　　[答案]D.worry

　　[注釋]worry既可作動詞用，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.(他總是惟恐有一點小事出錯。)
