①He no longer lives here.他不住這里了。
②Don’t worry about her. After all she is no longer a child .別為她擔心。畢竟她不再是個小孩子了。

①He don’t live here any longer.
②Don’t worry about her. After all she isn’t a child any longer.
③I shall not wait any longer.
注意:no more(相當于not…any more)也是“不再”的意思。no longer是把現在的情況和過去對比,時態以現在時為多,有時也用過去時或將來時;no more 指今后如何,通常用將來時態。
①I can no longer stand it.我再也受不了。
②I will go there no more.我再也不到那地方去了。
美國人有時用起來比較隨便。

三、經典名題導解
題1(NMET 1998)
You’ll find this map of great___________ in helping you to get round London.
A. price B. cost C. value D. usefulness
分析:C。“be of + 抽象名詞”;句意為“你會發現這張地圖對幫助你在倫敦旅游大有益處”,A,B 不合句意。D為可數名詞。Value為抽象名詞,意為“益處、價值”。
題2(上海 1998)
The lady said she would buy a gift for her daughter with the________.
A.20 dollars remained . B.remaining 20 dollars.
C.remained 20 dollars. D.20 dollars to remain
分析:B。 remaining adj.剩下的。the remaining students剩下的學生。the remaining 11 seats 剩下的11個座位。
題3 Tom was disappointed that most of the guests_____ when he_____ at the party.
A.left; had arrived B.left; arrived
C.had left; had arrived D.had left; arrived
分析:D。句中was決定從句必須使用與過去相關的時態,leave的動作先于arrive,所以用過去完成時態。
題4(NMET 2002)
I wonder why Jenny____ us recently. We should have heard from her by now.
A.hasn’t written B.doesn’t write
C.won’t write D.hadn’t written
分析:A。該題考查現在完成時用法。題干中有recently“最近”一詞。
題5(上海 1999)
Those T-shirts are usually $ 35 each, but today they have a _____ price of $ 19 in the Shopping Center.
A.regular B.special C.cheap D.particular
分析:B。對于price只能用high,low修飾,不能用cheap;根據句中可以看出,“19美元對照35美元”是“特價”,故選擇B。
題6(NMET 2000)
It’s always diffcult being in a foreign country, ______ if you don’t speak the language.
A.extremely B.naturally C.basically D.especially
分析:D。該題考查四個副詞的區別。從句意很容易判斷出especially“尤其是、特別是”,符合題意。
題7 It was about 600 years ago____ the first clock with a face and an hour hand was made.
A.that B.until C.before D.when
分析A。這是一個強調句,強調的部分是about 600 years ago.其結構為“it is+被強調部分that+剩余部分”。一般來講,把it is...that...去掉之后原句應不改變原意。
題8 It is careless _______ you to do that.
A.for B.to C.of D.with
分析:C。此題考查動詞不定式作主語。在這個結構中,只能用of或for介紹邏輯主語。由于本題介詞后的邏輯主語 you可以與careless連用,即:You are careless.所以選C.如不能,則用for.
