Everyone has a desire for success,but not everyone desires to get rich.
每个人都渴望成功，但并非人人都渴望有钱。
He desires you to go to see him at once.=He desires that you (should)go to see him at once.他要求你马上去见他。
test out sth.=put sth.to the test
对新试做的物品或新产生的理论进行“试用”或“检验考验”，检验其试用的程度或有效性，以便加以改进。
e.g Their theory is going to be tested out.
Claire didn't want the robot in her house,especially as her husband would be absent for three weeks,but Larry persuaded her that the robot wouldn't harm her or allow her to be harmed.
克莱尔并不想把机器人留在家里，特别是在她丈夫离家三周的这个期间。但是克莱尔被拉里说服了。他说，机器人不会伤害她，也不会让别人来伤害她。
【点拨】该句是一个由but连接的并列句。第一个分句包含一个as引导的原因状语从句，说明克莱尔不愿让机器人留在家里的原因；but之后的句子的主干为Larry persuaded her.
persuade 后面是双宾语：her充当间接宾语，that引导的宾语从句充当直接宾语。还要注意在该宾语从句中的not...or...的意思是“既不...也不...”。
alarm  n.警报，惊慌
The fire caused much alarm.
火灾引起很大的恐慌。
相关短语：
give the alarm to ...     发警报给....
take alarm at....     对...感到吃惊
a fire alarm     火警
a false alarm     虚惊一场
vt.使警觉，使惊慌
I don't want to alarm you,but there is a strange man in your garden.我不想吓唬你，不过你花园里有个陌生人。
相关短语：

be alarmed for..    对...放心不下

[考例3]Energy drinks are not allowed (B) in Australia but are brought in from New Zealand.
A to make     B to be made     C to have been made   D to be making
[点拨]allow sb. to do sth.允许某人做某事，又因make 与energy drinks 构成动宾关系，用不定式的被动式；再根据句意说的是一般情况，无完成含义，故选B。
As he was not allowed to accompany her to the shops...
因为克莱尔不让托尼陪她去商店
accompany vt.陪伴，陪同，同时存在或发生，为...伴奏
accompany sb. to a place
陪伴某人去
accompany sb. with/by sth

陪伴某人，和某人作伴
in the company of sb.

As she turned around,there stood Gladys Claffern.
当她转过身去，格拉雷斯.克拉芬站在那里。
turn around同turn round 转过身
与turn有关的短语：
turn back 折回，翻回
turn in   上交
turn down  拒绝，调小/低
turn out 结果是；生产
turn on   开（灯等）
turn off   关(灯）等
turn up   出现；到达
-What are you reading,Tom?
-I'm not really reading,just(C) the pages.
A turning off     B turning around    C turning over    D turning up
解析：C
本题考查动词短评辨析。turn over 意为“翻动”，“把...反过来”；turn over the pages即“翻动书页”，符合搭配
(By) the amused and surprised look on her face,Chaire knew that Gladys thought she was having an (affair).After all,she knew Claire's husband's name was Larry,not Tony.
从她脸上惊奇的表情判断，克莱尔知道拉迪斯认为她有外遇，毕竟她知道她丈夫的名字是拉里，而不是托尼。
1)by  prep.此处相当于according to 根据，按照
By my watch it is two o'clock...
by的用法：
“到...时为止”，其后若跟过去时间，时态多用过去完成时；若跟将来时间时态多用将来完成时。
By the age of 15,he had taught himself advanced maths.
到15岁时，他就自学完了高等书序。
表示时间时，还有“在...期间，不迟于”的意思

By tomorrow he will be here.
他明天就到这儿。
by作为介词和副词，意思还有“在附近，在旁边，经，由，依据，通过，用，以...方式”等

她大叫一声“托尼”，然后听到托尼一本正经地说，第二天他不想离开我，而且他不满足于仅仅使她开心。
[点拨]该句的主句包含两个并列的谓语，即cried和heard.declare后接两个that引导的宾语从句，其中第一个宾语从句中的that可以省略。
declare vt.
1)宣布，宣告；声明+(that)to make known formally or officially.
The new Congress declared a state of war with Germany.
新的国会向德国宣战了。
2）宣城；断言+（that)
