近义词辨析
prohibit, forbid, ban

prohibit
意为“(通过法律、法令、公告、严正警告)禁止某些事情”,该词应用范围比其他两个词广,其常用结构为prohibit sb. from doing sth.。
forbid
意为“禁止”,是这三个词中最普通的词。如果我们指一般意义上的“禁止某人做某事”,就要用forbid sb. to do sth.。
ban

试题答案与解析

1. A)【句意】就像他死后战胜了非正义力量一样,他在远离他一生的艺术领域也取得了一席之地。

2. D)【句意】他以为他永远失去了他那漂亮的小黄狗,可当他走进房间的时候,他发现枕头被小狗叼走了。

3. C)【句意】1900年,他的埋葬地终于被发现,墓碑十分简单,上面只标刻着数字61。

9. B)【句意】1970年以来,数百万热心者一直在服用一种他们认为能治感冒的物质——维生素C。

【难点】与since 引导的时间状语相呼应,主句动词使用现在完成进行时。
