　　1. C。根據(jù)題意可知，說話者是將when people do it together和when people don’t do it together這兩種情況比較，故選比較級。注意不要選D，因為在此題是要用副詞修飾動詞，不能用形容詞。另外，根據(jù)句末的higher too也可知道此題是考查比較級。

　　2. D。首先，根據(jù)連系動詞后要接形容詞作表語這一特點，可排除A和C。另外，使役動詞make后可接動詞原形（不帶to的不定式）或過去分詞作賓語補(bǔ)足語，但不能接現(xiàn)在分詞，故可排除選項B。

　　7. C。由于是將“Love me, love my dog”與“Love me, love my book”進(jìn)行比較，故用比較級。此題的巧妙之處在于句中沒有出現(xiàn)than，而是給出兩個待比較的proverb。
