You know what each word means on its own，of course. But think about what the words mean when they are used together. “Homesick” means “longing for home, unhappy away from home”. In other words, it means sick for home. Now think for a minute about the word “seasick”. If you change the word “home” in the definition to the word “sea”, would the definition fit “seasick”? Does seasick mean “longing for sea; unhappy away from sea”? It means something quite different. Seasick means “sick because of the sea”. When you are homesick, the only place you want to be is at home. When you are seasick, the last place you want to be is at sea. Have you ever heard of a person being heartsick? Heartsick does not mean that something is wrong with a persons heart. It means “terribly disappointed and sad”. People are heartsick when they are hurt down deep inside, or when they feel as if their hearts are broken. And so, when you are carsick，you are “made sick by the movement of a car on the road”. You are sick because of the car, not sick for it.You can see, then, that not all compound words are what they seem at first glance. But, on the other hand, we have such compound words as “handshake”, “handstand”, and “handbag”. You may want to write definitions for them. 6. The word “seasick” means _.A. to want very much to go to the sea B. what has nothing to do with the sea C. to be sick because of the sea D. that the sea is terrible 7. When we say a person is heartsick, we mean that_. A. his heart is broken B. his heart needs testing C. theres something wrong with his heart D. hes terribly disappointed and sad 8. “The last place you want to be” is _.A. where you want to be most B. where you want to be least C. where you go the last D. the last place you go to 9. The definitions of “handbag” and “handshake” are _.A. easy to know B. difficult to know C. impossible to learn D. unnecessary to learn 10. The writer wanted to tell us that _.A. there are many compound words in English B. the building of compound words is interesting C. the definitions of some compound words are hard to guess D. not all the compound words mean what they seem to be Passage 2The French Revolution broke out in 1789. At the time France was in a crisis. The government was badly run and peoples lives were miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control the national parliament and raise more taxes. But his effort failed. He ordered his troops to Versailles. The people thought that Louis intended to put down the Revolution by force. On July 14, 1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792 to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed（处死）. A few months later his wife, Marie also had her head cut off. The Revolution of France had frightened the other kings of Europe.
