make certain (of/ that ) 把……弄確實(shí)；弄清楚

復(fù)習(xí)sure和certain的聯(lián)系和區(qū)別：（供學(xué)生閱讀消化）英語中的sure和certain是近義形容詞，均有“肯定的；確信的；有把握的”的意思，它們的用法也大體相似，許多情況下可以通用，但它們之間也有一些差別。

相同點(diǎn)

兩者都能用于“be sure/certain + about /of短語”句型中，表示“對（某事）有把握”。主語必須是人，about/of之后多跟名詞、代詞。

I am sure/certain of his returning. 我確信他會(huì)回來。

He is quite sure/certain of /about it. 他對這事很有把握。

兩者都能用于be sure/certain to do sth句型中，表示“一定會(huì)做某事”，主語可以是人，也可以是物。

Spring is sure/certain to follow winter. 冬天過后一定是春天。

They are sure/certain to come. 他們一定會(huì)來的。

兩者都能用于“be sure/certain +從句”句型中，表示“確信……”，主語只能是人，而不能是物。

Tom is sure/certain that I put the key on the table. 湯姆確信我把鑰匙放在桌子上了。

We are sure/certain that the book will be of great help to us.

我們相信這本書對我們會(huì)有很大幫助。

兩者都能用于“make sure/certain +從句”結(jié)構(gòu)中，表示“確定；弄清楚”，主語只能是人。 You must make sure/certain when the bus will leave. 你必須弄清汽車何時(shí)出發(fā)。

He made sure/certain that he had turned off the gas. 他確信他關(guān)掉了煤氣。

不同點(diǎn)

“I ' m sure…”與“I ' m certain…”均可譯為“我深信（確）信……”，但兩者的含義卻不同。前者表示一種主觀上的判斷或感覺，事實(shí)并不一定如此。后者強(qiáng)調(diào)的則是客觀事實(shí)，意為主語已經(jīng)知道后面的內(nèi)容是既定的事實(shí)。試比較下面一組句子：

I'm sure he didn't steal it. He isn’t that kind of person. 我確信他沒偷，他不是那種人。

I'm certain he didn't break the cup. I broke it myself.

我敢肯定他沒有打碎那個(gè)茶杯，（因?yàn)椋┠莻�(gè)茶杯是我打碎的。

如果it作為形式主語代替從句時(shí)，則其后的表語用certain，而不能用sure。

It isn ' t certain whether he will give us a report next Monday.

下星期一他是否來為我們作報(bào)告還不能確定。

兩者在作定語時(shí)含義不同：sure意為“可靠的；無誤的”；而certain若修飾可數(shù)名詞，意為“某一；某些；某種；一些”，若修飾抽象名詞，表示程度，意為“有點(diǎn)；有些”。

The letter was sent by a sure hand. 信已由一位可靠的人寄出了。

He made a sure answer. 他回答得準(zhǔn)確無誤。

A certain person called on me yesterday. 昨天有個(gè)人來找過我。

在祈使句中常用sure，不宜用certain。

Be sure and remember what I told you. 千萬要記住我對你講的話。

Be sure to write and tell me all the good news. 務(wù)必寫信告訴我所有的好消息。

口語中，sure常作副詞，用在肯定答語中替代surely，這時(shí)與of course，certainly意思相當(dāng)，而certain不可作副詞用。

-Would you please turn down the radio a little bit? 請你把收音機(jī)音量擰小點(diǎn)，好嗎？

-Sure. 當(dāng)然可以。-Do you still remember our first fishing trip?

-I sure do. 你還記得我們第一次去釣魚嗎？當(dāng)然記得了。

小結(jié)不同點(diǎn)

sure certain

表示判斷 主觀上的 客觀上的

It作形式主語 不可用 可用

作定語的意義 可靠的；無誤的 可靠的; 某一；某些；某種；一些

在祈使句中 常用sure 不宜用certain

作副詞用 可以 不可

exciting adj.（事物）令人興奮的 比較：excited（人）感到興奮的

有許多其他詞也與excite類似，有兩種形容詞形式。v.-ing形式的詞表示“（事物等）令人……的”，而v.-ed形式的詞則表示“（人）感到……的”。列舉如下：

The sky is a large place, and though it had been carefully examined for centuries, new features still turn up. Last March it was the reigns of Uranus, and last week astronomers announced what may turn out to be a new planet, though a very small one, in the solar system.

The object was first sighted last month by Charles Kowal, an astronomer at the Hale Observatories in Pasadena, Calif. Mr Kowal detected a faint trail of light on photographic plates, indicating that something was moving in relation to the background of stars. Other observers have confirmed the discovery.

The“mini-planet”, identified for the time being as“Object-Kowal”, appears to be about 1.5 billion miles away, between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus, and its diameter has been estimated at between 100 and 400 miles. Its orbit has not been determined yet, but if the orbit proves to be roughly circular, like that of the major planets, the new object world probably take 66 to 70 years to make a circuit of the sun.

Some astronomers have speculated that Mr Kowal's discovery may be the first indication of an asteroid belt beyond Saturn.

Let's pretend we're sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat. The Rhine is one of the main waterways of Germany, and the river traffic is heavy. It's interesting to watch the many boats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄園) on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine from the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.

Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordinary about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei.

The someone on the boat begins to sing in German, the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beautiful siren (美女) who has lured many sailors to their deaths.

The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair and singing. The sailors who hear her forget to steer, and the current of river hurls their boats on the rocks and dashes them to pieces.

Soon other people on the boat begin to sing. The beautiful song adds to special magic to the moment, and you begin to realize why so many people have made this trip down the Rhine to see the rock of the Lorelei.

In the 1960s, medical researchers Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe developed a checklist of stressful events. They appreciated the tricky point that any major change can be stressful. Negative events like “serious illness of a family member” were high on the list, but so were some positive life-changing events, like marriage. When you take the Holmes-Rahe test you must remember that the score does not reflect how you deal with stress - it only shows how much you have to deal with. And we now know that the way you handle these events dramatically affects your chances of staying healthy.

By the early 1970s, hundreds of similar studies had followed Holmes and Rahe. And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow, the research got boiled down to a memorable message. Women’s magazines ran headlines like “Stress causes illness!” If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy, the articles said, avoid stressful events.

But such simplistic advice is impossible to follow. Even if stressful events are dangerous, many - like the death of a loved one - are impossible to avoid. Moreover, any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription (處方) for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble. Since any change can be stressful, a person who wanted to be completely free of stress would never marry, have a child, take a new job or move.

The notion that all stress makes you sick also ignores a lot of what we know about people. It assumes we’re all vulnerable (脆弱的) and passive in the face of adversity (逆境). But what about human initiative and creativity? Many come through periods of stress with more physical and mental vigor than they had before. We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to boredom, and physical and metal strain.

49. The result of Holmes-Rahe’s medical research tells us __________.

A) the way you handle major events may cause stress

B) what should be done to avoid stress

C) what kind of event would cause stress

D) how to cope with sudden changes in life

50. The studies on stress in the early 1970’s led to _________.

A) widespread concern over its harmful effects

B) great panic over the mental disorder it could cause

C) an intensive research into stress-related illnesses

D) popular avoidance of stressful jobs

51. The score of the Holmes-Rahe test shows ________.

A) how much pressure you are under B) how positive events can change your life

C) how stressful a major event can be D) how you can deal with life-changing events

52. Why is “such simplistic advice” (Line 1, Para. 3) impossible to follow?

A) No one can stay on the same job for long.

　B) No prescription is effective in relieving stress.

　C) People have to get married someday.

　D) You could be missing opportunities as well.
