易錯點撥
自我完善·誤區(qū)備考
1. worth/worthy/worthwhile
(1)worth只做表語，表示“值……錢，值得干……”，后跟名詞或動名詞，不跟不定式。worth常用well修飾，不用very。Thebook is well worth reading.這書值得一讀。
(2)worthy 意為“值得的”，除在書面語體中用做定語外，一般用做表語。be worthy后常接“of＋名詞/動名詞(被動式)”、不定式。
The place is worthy to be visited/of being visited.這地方值得一游。
(3)worthwhile 的常用句式為It is worthwhile to do sth./doing sth.,it是形式主語，to do/doing 做真正主語，即：做某事是值得的。
It is worthwhile visiting/to visit the place.參觀那地方還是很值得的。
[應(yīng)用1] 用worth, worthy和worthwhile填空
(1)Her achievements are ______ of the highestpraise.她的成就值得高度的贊揚。

Chinese high school students have the longest study hourscompared to their peers(同齡人) in Japan, the US and the Republic ofKorea, a survey conducted by the four countries said.
The survey, released by the China Youth and Children ResearchCenter (CYCRC) on Monday, was jointly conducted with institutionsin the four countries in September—October of 2008. It coversnearly 4 000 students in senior high schools and vocational highschools in the four countries.
About 78.3 percent of Chinese students said they spend more thaneight hours at school and 56.7 percent said they study at least twomore hours each day at home. By contrast, only 24.7 percent oftheir peers in the US, 20.5 percent in Japan and 15.4 percent inKorea study more than two hours after school.
Around 60 percent of all students surveyed said their burden forstudies was the heaviest; however, the Japanese felt their burdenwas the worst with respondents(應(yīng)答者) reaching 79.2 percent.
Among the five biggest headaches for young people in the fourcountries were: over－scheduling ranked first, followed by a boringleisure life, unsatisfied appearance, little time for exercise andmaking friends, and no spare money.
“Moderate(適度的) study pressure can better drive students todevelop, however, too much will squeeze(擠) their development space,and can even cause harm to their physical and psychologicalhealth，”the survey said.
“Balancing their studies and all－round development is a veryimportant task，”it said.
