Henry has prepared a party for his girlfriend，______________（结果却被告之她到时候不能来了）. 3. The chief reason for the population growth is ______________（与其说是出生率的上升，还不如说是死亡率的下降）. 4. True friendship foresees the needs of others ______________（而不是声明自己的需求）. 5. Although I liked the appearance of the house，_____________（真正让我决定买下它的）was the beautiful view through the window. 1. Few people do not complain about the tedium of their jobs 解析：本题考查对形容词few和动词短语complain about的掌握。few作形容词时意为"很少的，少数的"，用来修饰可数名词复数，表示少得几乎没有。complain (to sb.) about sth.意为"（向某人）抱怨某事"。tedium"沉闷，单调乏味"，为不可数名词。 2. only to be told that she couldn t come by then 我要高分 解析：本题考查对"only＋不定式"结构的掌握。"only＋不定式"结构相当于一个结果状语，意为"结果却..."，表示事情的发展令人不快或与预料相反。"被告之..."表明不定式要用被动式（to be told）。that宾语从句作动词told的宾语，从句的时态应与主句一致（couldn t）。by then在此处指"到将来的某个时候"。 3. not so much a rise in birth rates as a fall in death rates或more a fall in death rates than a rise in birth rates 解析：本题考查对能够表达"与其说是......，不如说是......"的结构及含义的掌握。"not so much...as..."和"more...than..."都可以表示"与其说是......，不如说是......"。 4． rather than proclaims one s own 解析：本题考查对rather than的用法。rather than可以用来连接并列成分，表示"而不是"的含义。 5． what really made me decide to buy it 解析：本题考查对what引导的主语从句的掌握。根据句子结构，前半句是Although引导的让步状语从句，而主句中只有系表结构，缺少主语，故需要翻译的部分应该是一个主语从句。what和that都可以引导主语从句，但that只起引导作用，不在从句中充当成分，而what可以在从句中充当主语、宾语或表语，故本句只能使用what。
