【考点3】【辨析】maybe与may be的用法辨析：

Maybe she’ll come this afternoon. 她可能今天下午来。//  Maybe Lucy is at home. 也许露西在家。

②may be意为“也许是；可能是”，在may be中，may是情态动词，be是动词原形，两者构成完整的谓语形式，与主语形成系表结构。如：

 阅读下面短文：客观题请从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

You must think a computer is the best thing in the world, right? You must think it works at a super speed and can do everything? Well, it’s not! In fact, the brain is much more powerful than any super computer! Think about when a glass is just about to fall off the table. Your brain controls everything that you need to do to save that glass from falling. First your eyes check out what’s going on, then tell your brain, and your brain decides how quickly you need to react(反应), and then your muscles(肌肉) go into action. That is just from your brain. No computer could ever come close to that!

The brain weighs just 3 pounds, but it controls everything you do from thinking, learning, feeling even to breathing and your heart beating. Even though the brain is just 2% of your body weight, it uses around 20% of all your energy in your body. That is a lot for such a small organ(器官). There are about 100 billion tiny, tiny little cells(细胞) in your brain. There are so many that it would take you over 3,000 years to count them all!

Your brain stops growing when you’re 18, but it actually keeps on developing and learning new things. So your parents are really super smart! You won’t be able to fool them! Believe it or not, your brain NEVER stops working. Even during sleeping, the brain works for long-term memory establishment(建立). It is realized that the brain is the second organ in the body like the heart that never stops during human lives.

So everyone should be proud of such a gift of nature.

A.eyes and muscles react quickly

B.the brain controls everything in your body

C.the computer is the best thing in the world

2.In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “That” refers to(指的是)　　　.

3.Which is RIGHT according to the passage?

A.The brain doesn’t work during sleeping.

B.The brain is the only organ that never stops.

C.The brain keeps growing during human lives.

D.The brain keeps on developing during human lives.

4.Which word can best describe the brain according to the passage?

A.Magic. B.Quick. C.Light. D.Developing.

5.In which magazine can the passage be found most probably?
