A computer is high tech.So is a communications satellite.A modern manufacturing system is surely high tech.High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980' s.Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens, etc.“ State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible.It is a product that is based on the very latest methods and technology.Something that is “state of the art” is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry.A state of the art television set, for example, uses the modernest electronic design and parts.It is the best that one can buy.“State of the art” is not a new expression.Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best and most modern way of doing something.Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970's.The reason was the computer revolution.Every computer company claimed that its computers were “ state of the art”.Computer technology changed so fast that a state of the art computer today might be old tomorrow.The expression “ state of the art ” became as common and popular as computers themselves.Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art”.16.What is the purpose of the passage A.To tell how “high tech” and “state of the art” have developed.B.To give examples of “high tech”.C.To tell what “high tech” and “state of the art ” are.D.To describe very modern technology.17.What can we infer from the passage? A.American stores could provide new kinds of products to people.B.High tech describes a technology that is not traditional.C.“State of the art” is not as popular as “high tech”.D.A modern plough pulled by oxen is “state of the art”.18.All the following examples are high tech except ______.A.a microwave oven B.a home computer C.a hand pump D.a satellite
19.Which of the fbl1owing statements is not true? A.Since the computer revolution, the expression “ state of art“ has become popular.B.“ State of the art” means something that is the best one can buy.C.With the rapid development of computer,“ state of the art” computer may easily become out of date.D.All kinds of products are “state of the art” nowadays.20.The best title for the passage is__________.A.Computer Technology B.High Tech and State of the Art C.Most Advanced Technology D.Two New Expressions
Passage Two The Chinese have used a method called acupuncture(针灸)to perform operations for about 4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep.This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body.The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training.But to be skillful requires greater time.The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful.This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body.But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture.They are trying to develop convincing theory to explain how the needles work, in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep.It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21.Acupuncture is_________.A.a medical operation B.a medical needle C.a medical technique D.a medical machine
22.Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture? A.He knows where to place the needles without pain.B.He knows where the operation is to be performed.C.He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.He knows how to use the needles in an operation.23.To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person________________.A.several months B.a couple of weeks C.a little time D.almost one month
24.It can be learned from the passage that______________.A.the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needles B.an operation now needs fewer needles than in the past C.acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 years D.few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals
25.Which is implied but not stated in the passage' s A.The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B.The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C.The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D.Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.Passage Three Nowadays more and more foreign enterprises and companies are no longer relying on interviews for recruitment(招聘).Years of studying interviewing have made clear that it is not a very objective process.Personnel officers often hire the person they like most, or even the one they think most physically attractive.Looking good is no guarantee of doing the job well, however.Uglies or those who are aesthetically challenged, lose heart.To get a more objective view, many companies are also using psychological tests to hire both for relatively routine jobs and for positions at senior levels of management.It is impossible to say how many employers use tests, but estimates of test sales in the UK for 1993 were over 1 million.The basic reason employers use tests is clear: tests claim to be scientific and objective.A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection.People's judgment is often very subjective;whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else.But reliable and valid tests can offer rapid and more objective information about would-be employee.If a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate, an employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a game-like test.You can spend just a little time in answering questions of that kind of test, and you deny the answers and say they are not accurate.But you can not go to a serious test without enough preparation since you cannot afford to be denied and eliminated again and again.26.In the past, who would be sure to be recruited after an interview? A)The person who was well educated.B)The person who had great abilities.C)The person who was physically attractive.D)The person who was appreciated by personnel officer in a certain aspect.27.According to the passage, “those who are aesthetically challenged” refer to those who are____________.A)good-looking B)guarantee of doing the job well C)not attractive judging from appearance D)given the job of interviewing the candidates
28.Many companies use psychological tests___________.A)to take the place of interviews B)just to select common clerks C)to make the recruitment more difficult for candidates D)to get really reliable and fair information about candidates
29.“That kind of test” in the last paragraph refers to____________.A)an interview B)a serious test C)a game-like test D)an objective test
30.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A)For a certain time, psychological tests and interviews will exist together.B)Psychological tests have been recognized valuable more and more.C)The employer will surely hire a person who does well in the interview but poorly in the psychological tests.D)People seldom attend a serious test without enough preparation unless they are confident of it.Passage Four In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning.If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m.If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death.The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part.In the U.S.A.guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently.Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example.If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible.In the U.S.no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite.A person who is 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.31.“The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m...” Here “attached“ means______ A.taken B.drawn C.given D.shown
32.Supposing one wants to make a telephone call at dawn, this would mean________.A.the matter is important B.the matter is somewhat important C.the matter requires immediate attention D.it is a matter of life and death
33.According to this passage, time plays an important role in _________.A.everyday life B.school life C.communications D.private life
34.The best title for this passage is_________.A.The Voices of Time B.The Importance of Time C.The Importance of an Announcement D.Time and Tide Wait for No Man
35.According to the passage, the author of the article may agree to which of the following statements? A.It is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in U.S.A.B.It may be appropriate to send your invitation to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some cultures.C.It is best for one to make telephone calls at night because it costs much less.D.If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.Part III Vocabulary and Structure(20 points)Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this section.For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that best completes the sentence.Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 36.All________ is a continuous supply of the basic necessities of life.A)which is needed B)the thing needed C)for our needs D)that is needed

51.C应改为being spoken。这种语言在被非常少的人们使用的情况下,如何、为何存活了一千多年的问题很难解释。
52.C应改为older。几乎半数的25岁以上的美国人参加了某种形式的继续教育。
53.B应改为on。Keep an eye on对某事密切注意。很多父母觉得,出于对犯罪和学校暴力的担忧,他们需要密切注意他们的孩子。
54.B应改为spent。句子中已有谓语动词in-creased,因此,spend应改为非谓语形式。而时间与主语time的关系是被动关系,因此采用过去分词形式。对于已婚母亲来说,2009年花在孩子身上的时间,增加到了平均12.9小时每星期。
55.A应改为increasing。越来越多的证据证明,越来越多的年轻人在政治活动积极参与。
There 56 a king who had twelve beautiful daughters.They 57 in twelve beds all in one room and when they went to bed, the 58 were shut and locked up.59 , every morning 60 shoes were found to be quite worn through as if they had been danced in all night.Nobody could 61 how it happened, or 62 the princesses had been.So the king made it 63 to all that if any person could discover the 64 and find out where it was that the princesses danced in the 65 , he would have the 66 he liked best to take as his wife, and would be king 67 his death.But whoever tried and did not succeed, after three days and nights, would be 68 to death.A prince from a nearby country soon came.He was well entertained, and in the evening was taken to the chamber(大房间)next 69 the one where the princesses lay in their twelve 70.There he was to sit and 71 where they went to dance;and, in order 72 nothing could happen without him hearing it, the door of his 73 was left open.But the prince soon went to sleep;and when he 74 in the morning he found that the princesses had all been dancing, 75 the soles of their shoes were full of holes

75.A.for B.soC.butD.though
46.A应把HOW改成What。how与what都可以引导感叹句,how修饰形容词和副词,what才可以跟名词。
47.B应把in his honor改成in whose honor。这里是一个定语从句,限定前面的主语,而whose可以实现这一功能。
48.D应把that改为what。因为本句缺少宾语,所以用what引导的一个定语从句来袁示。
49.A应将tO make改成having made,这一句是说“他之前已经做过多次努力„„”。
50.B应该将was改成were。In the town提前,句子倒装,句子主语many old people需要跟复数的谓语动词。
51.D应把to play改成playing。enjoy doingsth.为固定搭配。
52.B应把she was改成was she。因为在So„that„句型中,如果So引导的是一个完整的句子,主谓需要倒装。
53.C应把increasingly改为increasing。修饰need这个名词应该用形容词,而increasingly是副词。
54.C应把more去掉。more和比较级不可同时用,比较级中多音节词前才需加more。
55.A应把has去掉。本句有明显的过去时标志性短语ten years ago,应用一般过去时,故直接用died即可。

1.D【句意】完成整个建设需要二百万元
【解析】在这里 what引导一个主语从句,what既起引导作用,又在从句中作谓语动词 need的宾语,如:What I want to know is why energy, unlike matter, is not made up of molecules and atoms.我想要知道的是,为什么能量不像物质那样是由分子和原子组成的。因此D是正确选择。尽管that也可引导主语从句,但不能在主语从句中做成分,所以B和 C错误。关系代词what不能用来引导定语从问,所以A也不正确。
2.C【句意】尽管我们想要帮助她,Sara却拒绝了。
【解析】for在这里意为“虽然,尽管”,相当于 in spite of,notwithstanding,如:For all his efforts,he didn't succeed.虽然他尽了力,但还是没有成功。at,in 和 on则没有这种意义和用法。
3.D【句意】尽管存在很多困难,她还是自己完成了这项工作。
【解析】despite意为“尽管,不顾”,如: He came to the meeting despite his serious illness.他尽管病得很厉害,还是来参加了会议。in spite要和of连用,意思与 despite相同,如上句可改为: He came to the meeting in spite of his serious illness.as for意为“至于……,就……而言”,如:As for this kind of rare metal, it will be further studied.至于这种稀有金属,要做进一步的研究。besides意为“除……之外”,如。Besides English he can speak French and German.除了英语他还会说法语和德语。由此可见只有D为正确答案。
4.B【句意】尽管在这个时间出版,他的作品还是受到了关注。
【解析】本题考查的是as引导的让步状语从句.动词publish动作的对象是从句的主语,所以需要用过去分词与was构成被动语态,如:Thoroughly cleaned as it was, the room didn't look tidy.房间虽然给彻底打扫了,但看起来并不整洁。选项A是现在分词的被动式,表示该动作正在进行或与谓语动词表示的动作同时发生,如;Being earnestly invited to dinner, she couldn't very well refuse.有人热情邀请她参加宴会,她不好意思拒绝.选项C是现在分词的主动形式,选项D是动词不定式,而不定式做状话一般表示动作的目的,一般是将要发生的动作。由此可见,只有B是正确答案,而A,C和D旨不正确。
5.D【句意】在后天我们走之前他们可以赶过来的,我们会举行一次晚宴。
【解析】本句是一个虚拟条件句,主句的谓语用的是“should + 动词原形”,表示与现在事实相反或与将来事实可能相反。根据句子结构可以看出,从句部分是倒装句,省略了连接词if,由于句子中的时间状语是the day after tomorrow,所以从句动词应该用与将来事实可能相反的虚拟语气,即“should(were to)+ 动词原形”,如:Were they to act like that again,we should criticize them severely.要是他们再那样做,我们就要严厉地批评他们。由此可见,D是正确答案.
6.C【句意】并不是所有的书她都感兴趣,尽管阅读是她的乐趣。她喜欢读文学类的书,而不是政经类的书。
【解析】all,both,every,always,often,entirely,wholly,altogether等词的否定形式一般表示部分否定,如:All is not gold that glitters.发光的未必全是金子。又如:Every force does not always produce movement.力并非总产生运动。
7.A【句意】和古典音乐追随欧洲传统相反,爵士乐是一种自然和自由的表达方式。
【解析】in contrast to意为“同……相对照或相对比,与……相反”,比较的是两者之间的差异,如:In contrast to the China of pre-liberation days, China of today is strong and powerful.与解放前的中国相对比,今日的中国强大而有力。in connection with意为“与……有关系,关于”,如: In connection with your request of March 18th,we are sorry to tell you your goods can not be shipped right now.关于你 3月 18日信中提出)的要来,我们很抱歉你的货物不能马上装船。in comparison with意为“和……比较起来”,既可以比较相同点也可以比较不同点,如:The tallest buildings in London are small in comparison with those of New York.伦敦最高的楼房同纽约的比起来仍然很低。in regard to做“关于”讲,如:In regard to the other matter,we have not yet discussed it fully.关于其他事情,我们还没有充分讨论。
8.B【句意】城邦之间不断的冲突导致了希腊文明最终的衰落。
【解析】continual意为“经常不断的,常常的(中间可能有间隔)”,如:Continual smoking is bad to one's health.经常抽烟有害身体健康。continuous 指连续不断而且绝对不中断,如: The continuous work made me completely exhausted.不间断的工作使我筋疲力尽。constant可用来指习惯性的重复,如:Constant practice will make you overcome difficulties.经常训练会使你克服困难。contrary作“相反的”讲,如: Any contrary policy is absolutely wrong.任何相反的政策都是绝对错误的。
9.A【句意】用传统的墨水印刷大约需要三十美分,而防摩擦的墨水至少要贵十美分。
【解析】furthermore(此外,而且),meanwhile(同时)和moreover(再者,此外)均是副词,都不能引导从句。只有while是连词,意为“虽然”,含有让步之意,可以引导从句,如:While I admit that the problems are difficult, I don't agree that they cannot be solved.虽然我承认这些问题很难,但我不认为它们不能解决。
10.A【句意】对这条建议,大家有些话要说。
【解析】“There is something(nothing, little, plenty)to be said for …”是一个句型,意为“……有一定(没有,几乎没有,很有)道理”,如:There is something to be said for both sides of the issue.看起来争论的双方都有一定道理。11.C【句意】如果没有你的帮助,我们不会克服那些困难。
【解析】根据句子结构,我们可以看出逗号后面是使用了虚拟语气的主句,因此,须填入表示与过去情况相反的虚拟条件句,“if it were not for …”这一结构表示同现在事实相反的假设,意为“如果不是……”,例如:If it weren't for his wife's money, he'd never be a director.”如果不是他妻子有钱,他永远不会成为一名董事。If it were not for his help, I would never study here.如果没有他的帮助,我永远不会在这儿学习。因此,BIf it were not 错误。“if it had not been for …”的倒装形式为“had it not been for …”,表示与过去事实相反的假设,意为“如果当时没有……”,主句谓语形式是“would + have done”,例如:If it had not been for Dr.Li, he would have died of smallpox.如果当初不是李医生的话,他已死于天花了。Had it not been for his carelessness, the project wouldn't have failed.当时如果不是他粗心的话,这项工程不会失败。因此,C.Had it not been正确,A.Had it not错误(如果后跟been,就是正确的了),D.If we had not been无此结构。
12.A【句意】可能他听说了这条消息。
【解析】“(The)chances are(that)”常用于口语中,意为“很可能”,如:The chances are that he is staying at home.他很可能呆在家里。
13.C【句意】尽管他知识渊博,也受过教育,但本质上比较愚蠢。
【解析】for all意为“尽管,虽然”,如:For all you say, I still like him.尽管你这样说,我还是喜欢他。but for作“要不是,若非”讲,如:But for the rain, we should have had a pleasant journey.要不是下雨,我们就会去做一次很愉快的旅行了。according to意为“依照,根据”。thanks to则做“幸亏,由于”讲,如:Thanks to your help, we were successful.由于你的帮忙,我们得以成功。
14.A【句意】一从日本回来,李教授直接去了实验室,开始和同事们一起工作。【解析】“upon(on)+ 表示行为的名词”相当于as soon as引导的时间状语从句。15.C【句意】就我来说,其他的安排可能更好。
【解析】“as far as … be concerned”是固定搭配,意为“就……来说,就……而论”,如:It is impossible as far as we are concerned.对于我们来说,这是不可能的。so far意为“迄今为止”,如:The weather has been hot so far this summer.到目前为止,今年夏天天气一直很热。as for意为“至于……”,后跟名词或代词,不可跟从句。如:As for my past, I'm not telling you anything.至于我的历史,我什么都不会告诉你。so far from意为“非但不”,如:So far from taking my advice, he went and did just what I warned him against.他非但不接受我的劝告,反而去干了我告诫他别干的事。
16.B【句意】我一见到你,我知道你还在生我的气。
【解析】for a moment意为“一会儿”,in a moment做“立即,立刻”解,两者均可作时间状语。the moment相当于as soon as,起连接作用,引导时间状语从句,如:The moment she saw it, she recognized the type of the machine.她一看就认出了这台机器的型号。
17.A【句意】政府的腐败通过新闻界揭露了出来。
【解析】corruption意为“腐化,腐败”,如。Corruption among the officials was another cause for discontent.官员腐化是引起不满的又一原因。cosmetic意为“化妆品”,如:Mother has a special cosmetic bag for keeping her cosmetics in.母亲有一只专门放化妆品的化妆袋。cottage意为“小屋,别墅”,如:They have a summer cottage.他们有处避暑别墅。costume意为“服装,戏装”,如:He was dressed in ceremonial costume.他身穿礼服。18.C【句意】当他在黑暗中行走的时候,他的头碰到了墙。
【解析】由于walk和主句主语his head没有任何逻辑关系,因此在这里不能使用walk的非谓语形式,也不能使用“while +-ing”形式做状语,否则就形成了悬垂结构。在这种情况下,到们只好使用when引导的状语从句,所以C正确。
19.D【句意】聋是一个用来形容部分或者全部丧失听力的术语。
【解析】根据句子的结构我们可以看出,该处应为主语,而四个选项中可以做主语的只有deafness,因此D为正确答案。
20.C【句意】众所周知,马克·吐温是一位伟大的美国作家。
【解析】根据句子结构我们可以看出,前面的句子是非限制性定语从句,四个选项中 A和 D不能引导此类从句,故应排除。Which引导的此类从句必须置于主句之后,因此B也不正确。as可以做关系词,做“正如…… 那样;如同……那样”讲,用来引导非限制性定语从句,这时,as指代整个主句,既可放在主句前,也可放在主句后,后一种情况往往被看做插入语,例如:As is known to us all, contributions to computer technology are no longer confined to any one country.大家都知道,对计算机技术做出贡献的,已经不像过去那样仅是某一个国家了。He did it on purpose,as is often the case.这是他故意干的,情况通常是这样。As we know, water is necessary for the existence of all forms of life.我们知道,水对于切生物的生存是必不可少的。有些考生误选了it,他们错误地认为it做形式主语,后面的Mark Twain is a great American writer做真正的主语。如将句中的逗号省略掉,并代之以that,那么选it就是正确的了。
21.D【句意】太阳是星系的中心,而不是地球,在中世纪这是一个难以理解的概念。
【解析】根据句子结构我们可以看出。在was前面是一个主语从句,而主语从句必须有引导词。但A,B和C中都没有引导词,因此三个均错。D中that引导主语从句,在句中不做任何成分,只起引导词的作用,因而D是正确答案,如。That he will refuse the offer is unlikely.他拒绝这项建议的可能性不大。
22.A【句意】信不信由你,他的发现在科技界引起了震动。
【解析】believe it or not是习惯用语,常用于口语中,意为“信不信由你,我说的是真的”。如:Believe it or not,he was granted a full scholarship by Harvard University.信不信由你,哈佛大学给他提供了全额奖学金。Believe it or not,I'm feeling quite homesick.我很想家,我说的是真话。
23.C【句意】世界上有数百万种物质。
【解析】million一词做数词时不加s,如:There are two million people in that city.那座市有200万人。另外,B中的that易使人认为它要引导一个名词性从句,而且million后加s时,要和of连用,D中it is不表示“存在”之意。因此B和D错误。在there be结构中,谓语动词要和与之最近的主语在数上保持一致。句中的kinds是复数,要求其谓语动词也用复数形式。因此A错误而C正确。
24.C【句意】虽然人类现在可以创造出各种放射性元素,但是他们没有办法来减少其放射性。【解析】while除了引导时间状语从句外,还可以引导让步状语从句,做“尽管,虽然”讲,有着强烈的对比意味,例如; While I admit his good points I can see his bad ones.虽然我承认他的优点,但我也能看得出他的缺点。whether引导让步状语从句时,通常与or连用,意为“不管……还是……”,例如。Whether you can see the moon or not,it is always round.不管你看见与否,月亮总是圆的。now that 意为“既然…… ”,引导条件状语从句,从句内容是既成的事实,例如: Now that you will come here,I needn't go there.既然你要来,我就没必要到那儿去了。as也可以引导让步状语从句,但是该从句一般置于主句之前,且从句内容必须倒装,例如。Much as he likes her,he does get irritated with her sometimes.尽管他喜欢她,可有时他确实也对她发火。Try as he would,he could not lift the rock.虽然他尽力了,但仍不能搬动那块石头。
25.C【句意】对我来说,我认为一本英汉字典要比一本全英字典要好。
【解析】as for做“对……来说,就……而言”讲,如: As for her,she prefers tea to coffee.至于她, 则更喜欢茶而不是咖啡。as(so)far as意为“就……所……”如:As far as I know,there are no peaches on the market.就我所知,市场上没有桃子。as far不做为固定短语用。as regard也不做为固定短语用,坦as regards是固定短语,意思是“至于”,如:Now,as regards money,what is to be done?至于钱的问题,该怎么办?
26.C【句意】我一回来就了解到史密斯教授已经到了博物馆,几个小时不会回来。
【解析】on用来指时间,表示“在……之时”,相当于at the same time of,后跟动名词或表示动作的名词,如: On his arrival in Qingdao he set to work in earnest一到青岛他就认真地干了起来。而at,with和during 则没有这种用法。
27.D【句意】摆脱了冰的束缚,气球越升越高,飘到了南方。
【解析】根据句于结构我们可以看出,该处应使用分词短语,表示原因,因此A和B应予以排除。又因为free和balloon具有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以 C也可以排除。此处使用过去分词表示动作的被动和完成,如:Influenced by his example,they performed countless good deeds.在他事迹的影响下,他们做了无数的好事.
28.C【句意】曾经,曼彻斯特是世界上几个大棉厂的诞生地。
【解析】at one time意为“曾经,一度”。如:At one time the little girl formed the habit of visiting Einstein after school every day。有一段时间,那个小女孩养成了个习惯,每天放学后都去看望爱因斯坦。选项A,B和D都不能和one time构成短语,故只有C正确。
29.A【句意】直到最近,英国的大部分已婚妇女还没有离家工作。
【解析】before,from和since与quite recently连用,不符合语法;before quite recently一般要与过去完成时连用;from(since)quite recently一般要与现在完成进行时连用。until用在否定句中表示“直到……才”之意,如:It was not until the beginning of the century that man began to realize that it was the brain not the heart that was the center of mind.直到本世纪初,人们才逐渐认识到是大脑而不是心脏是思维活动的中心.由此可见,A是正确答案。
30.C【句意】正是从Stephen那里,他听说了被人称之为专家的那个人。
【解析】由于英语语法要求在同一个句号前,不可以有两个既不是并列关系,也不是从属关系的句子,故A不是正确答案。B,C和D都使用了强调句型,但通过运用这样一个规则“将强调句型中的it is(或was)和that(或who)省略掉,句子结构仍然应该是完整的”,就可看出只有 C为正确答案。例如:It was this very student that had shown great interest in the problem.就是这个学生曾对这个问题表现出了极大的兴趣。

2.D【句意】有些哺乳动物是如何开始在大海中成长的现在人们已经知道了。
【解析】根据句子结构我们可以看出,在is前面是一个主语从句。而since和although一般均引导状语从句,不引导名词性从句,故B和C应当排除。which作为连接代词,意为“哪些,哪个”,可以引导名词性从句,which在从句中一般做定语,如。The question is in which way we can carry out the test.问题是我们用什么方法才能进行这次测试。该句中已有some修饰mammals,再用which实属多余,因此A也可以排除。how做连接副调,意为“如何”,可以引导名词性从句,如:I want to know how he feels about working for 10 hours a day.我想知道他对一天工作10个小时是怎样想的。由此可见D为该题正确答案。
3.B【句意】任何有一点常识的学生应该能够回答这个问题。
【解析】any一般用在否定句或疑问句中(在肯定向中一般要用some),但是该词也可用于肯定句中,意为“任何,无论哪一个”,此时的any须重读。例如: The government is opposed to any further increase in taxes.政府反对进一步增加税收。Any device that stores up electric charge is called an electric capacitor.任何储存电荷的装置都叫电容器。each做“各自的,每个的,每一”讲,例如:Each book and each pen is found in its place.每一本书每一支笔都放得并并有条。either用作形容词,意为“任一的,(两方中的)每一方的”,常和or连用,例如: In either case,whenever atoms are changed, energy is released.在任一情况下,每当原子发生变化时,总要释放出能量。
4.B【句意】给了这么好一个机会,他计划学到更多的东西。
【解析】该题旨在考查非谓语动词的用法。现在分词的完成式表示该分词所表示的动作发生在谓语动词所表示动作之前,而现在分词的一般式则表示该动作和谓语动词的动作同时发生,如: Relying on our own efforts,we overcame one difficulty after another.我们依靠自己的力量克服了一个又一个困难。Having worked among the workers for so many years,he knew them very well.由于在工人中工作多年,他对他们非常了解。根据句意,该处应用被动语态,故B为正确答案,而 C和 D错误。不定式一般用作目的状语,表示将来的动作,如:To generate a current by magnetic action,a wire is made to pass through a mangnetic field.为了通过磁作用来产生电流,可以使用导线切割磁场。To do a good job,we must have the right tools.要干好活工具要对头。可见A也错误。
5.B【句意】由于我的头脑已经清醒了,我的大脑也开始里灵活起来。
【解析】now that是复合连词.意为“既然,由于”,如:Now that you’ve grown up,you must stop this childish behavior.你既然长大了,就必须停止这种幼稚的行为。for和 since接从句时,都不和that连用,despite后要跟名词,所以正确答案是B。6.C【句意】正是在二十世纪六十年代,这两个国家的贸易达到了顶点。
【解析】该题旨在考查强调句型。我们知道,英语强调句型的结构是“It + is(was)+ 被强调部分+ that(who)+ 句子其他部分”。被强调部分可以是主语、宾语或状语,如:It was Tom that(who)met your sister in the zoo yesterday.是汤姆昨天在动物园碰到你姐姐的。It was your sister that(whom)Tom met in the zoo yesterday.汤姆昨天在动物园碰到的是你姐姐。It was in the zoo that Tom met your sister yesterday.汤姆昨天是在动物园碰到你姐姐的。It was yesterday that Tom met your sister in the zoo.汤姆是昨天在动物园碰到你姐姐的。根据句意,该题强调的是时间状语,可见只有C能与之构成完整的强调句型,为正确答案。
7.A【句意】建筑用机器人是如此的聪明,以至于他们能够减少工地用工量的百分之九十。【解析】 such(A用在名词前(带或不带形容词),so用在形容词前(不带名词),例如:She was embarrassed at such a request.对这样的请求她感到很为难。She was anxious about her daughter being out so late at night.女儿晚上外出,很晚不归,她为此担心。“so + 形容词 + a(n)+ 名词”结构常用于书面语。例如:I has never met so gentle a person. This is so beautiful a country.这是一个非常美丽的国家。用so和such的词组,后面可跟that引导的结果状语从句,例如:She made such a good meal that we all ate far too much.她莱烧得这么好,我们都吃得太多了。根据句意及结构,C Such construction robots are clever和 Dsuch clever construction robots are错误,可改为They are such clever construction robots…。so或 such引起的短语位于句首,表示强调时,主句主谓要倒装。例如:So clever is the boy that we all like him.小孩子十分聪明,我们都喜欢他。Such was the force of explosion that all the windows were broken.爆炸的威力很大,所有的窗子都震坏了。因此,A正确而B错误。
8.C【句意】如果我知道你出去了,晚上那个时间我不会去打扰你。
【解析】根据句意,此处应使用虚拟语气,因此B错误。A尽管使用了虚拟语气,但它表示的是对一般将来情况的虚拟,所以时态不正确。为了表示语气上的强调,虚拟条件句中可以省略if,而此时从句应使用倒装结构,如: Had he taken a little more time to think,he might have acted more reasonably.如果他再多用一点时间思考一下,他的行动 就可能会更理智些。尽管D也使用了倒装结构,但它表示的是对一般将来的虚拟,时态不正确。可见只有C正确。
9.B【句意】尽管科技进步了,人老以后带来的各种不便会伴随着我们。
【解析】despite意为“尽管,不顾”,引导让步状语,如:He persisted in going his own way,despite my warnings.他不顾我的再三警告,一意孤行。as for意为“至于……,就……而言”,如:As for it,I will say nothing any more.至于这件事情,我不再说什么了。except意为“除……之外”,表示排除与整体性质相同的人或物,如: He gets up early every day except on Sunday.除星期日外,他每天早起。besides意为“除……之外”,如:Besides English he can speak French and German.除了会说英语外。他还会说法语和德语。由此可见,B是正确答案。
10.B【句意】考虑到德国对其经济实力所作的声明,德国经济实力的弱小实在让人惊讶。【解析】过去分词短语作状语一般要和句子主语有逻辑动宾关系,但是有时句子中的过去分词虽然和句子主语不是逻辑动宾关系,但却符合语法,因为这些过去分词功能相当于一个连词或介词,given就是其中之一。given可用作介词,意为“考虑到,假定,假若”,例如: Given the weather,the football game was quite good.考虑到天气因素,这场足球赛踢得相当不错。Given that he was still a boy,I forgave him.考虑到他还是个孩子,我就原谅他了。
11.C【句意】尽管自己已经七十多岁了,这位老人还是决定游过海峡。【解析】本句意为“尽管老人已 70多岁,他还是决定要横游过海峡。”despite在此是介词,意为“尽管”,如: Despite a shortage of steel,industrial output has increased by five percent.尽管钢材供应不足,工业产量仍增长了5%。其他三项均不符合本意思。
12.D【句意】要不是这次洪水,这艘船就会准时到达目的地了。
【解析】would have reached是虚拟语气形式,根据句意,需填入表示虚拟条件的从句或类似结构,因此,选but for。but for意为“倘没有;要不是”,它与后面的名词所构成的结构的作用相当于虚拟条件状语从句,例如: But for(Had it not been for)your help,we should not have finished in time.要不是你帮忙,我们不会及时完工。in case of 意为“假如;如果发生,防备”,例如; In case of fire,walk quietly to the nearest door.如发生火灾,要镇静地走向最近的门口。in spite of 意为“虽然,不顾,尽管……仍……”,例如:In spite of all his efforts he failed.他虽然做了各种努力,仍然失败了, because of意为“因为”,例如:I said nothing about it,because of his wife's being there.因为他的妻子在那里,我对这事一字未提。
13.A【句意】图书馆和书店都没有我需要的书。你能告诉我在那能够买得到吗?
【解析】“neither…nor…”和“either…or…”均为固定搭配,连接两个相等的成分。因此B和D应该排除。“either…or…”连接两个相等的成分时,意为“或者……,或者……”,两者必具其一。根据第二句话,我们知道在the library和 the bookstore均没有“我”所需要的书,故C也应排除.因此只有A是正确答案.
14.B【句意】一看到警察,人们四散跑去了。
【解析】at(the)sight of的意思是“一看见……就”,如: She wept at the sight of his distress. 一宕见他那痛苦的样子她就流泪了。in sight或within sight意为“看得见,迫近”,如:Peace is now in sight.和平在望。in the sight of意为“从……观点来看,在……看来”,如: He was punishable in the sight of law.从法律的角度来看他该受罚。
15.D【句意】考虑到墙的面积,我们认为我们需要三罐油漆。
【解析】size up意为“判断,估量”,如: They sized him up with a look.他们一眼就看出他是什么样的人了make up意为“构成,化妆”,如: A car is made up of many different parts.汽车由许多不同的部件组成。do up意为“扎,捆”,如: You should do up the parcel.你应把这个包裹捆上. put up意为“举起,建造”,如: put your hands up举起手来。
16.C【句意】总的来说,美国早期的城市规划是不错的。
【解析】on the whole是固定搭配,意为“从整体来看,大体上”,如: On the whole,the performance was a success.从整体来看,演出是成功的。
17.C【句意】这些天的天气是多好啊。
【解析】weather是不可数名词,所以 A可以排除。how引导感叹句时后面一般用形容词或副词,而what引导感叹句时应一般用名词(包括不可数名词),据此D也可以排除。weather为复数时一般指“处境,境遇”,故B也不合适。由此可见只有C是正确答案。(可参见薄冰的《英语语法》P.496上的例句:What delightful weather we are having!这天气多好呀!)
18.B【句意】既然我们上完了课程,我们就要开始做更多的修改工作。
【解析】根据句子结构我们可以看出,这里需要一个关联词来引导出一个状语从句。since或now that或now可以用来引导原因状语从句,从句内容是一个既定的事实,例如: Now that you will come here,I needn't go there.既然你要来,我就没必要到那儿去了。ever since后既可跟名词也可跟从句,表示“自从……以来”。如用在此处,则不合乎逻辑,例如:He has not written any letters to her ever since he was ill.自从他生病以来,他从未给她写过信。by now只能作状语,不能引导从句,意为“到目前为止”,例如: She ought to have arrived at her office by now.她现在本该到办公室了.虽然for可以引导表示原因的分句,但该分句要位于第一个分句之后,例如: I don't like him,for he always makes empty promises.我不喜欢他,因为他总是作一些空头许诺.
19.B【句意】她以来就开始抱怨。
【解析】句型“hardly(scarcely)…when”和“no sooner…than”表示“一……就”,例如:No sooner had he arrived home than he was asked to start on another journey.他刚到家就被要求做另一次旅行。Hardly had she agreed to marry him when she began to have serious doubts.她刚同意同他结婚,就开始产生严重的疑虑。Scarcely had he entered the room when the phone rang.他一进房间电话就响了。因此,B正确而C错误。由于主句谓语动词arrive要先于从句谓语动词start,因此从句使用一般过去时时,主句只能使用过去完成时,所以,D错误。not until或“not…until”意为“直到……才”,用来引导时间状语从句,例如: Not until midnight did they find their lost child.直到深夜他们才找到走失的孩子。根据句子结构,not until he arrived若用在这里,整个句子就没有主句了,犯了结构不完整的错误,因此,A也不是正确答案。
20.A【句意】他不可能来。
【解析】“There is no doing sth.…”或“There is not any doing sth.…”相当于 “It is impossible to do sth.…”,意为“做……是不可能的”,如:There is no knowing when he would be back.无法知道他什么时候回来.又如:There is not any telling what became of her.她出什么事了,无可奉告。
21.A【句意】和整个地球相比,世界上最高的山也不算高。
【解析】由于句子主语the highest mountain与动词compare是逻辑上的动宾关系,因此这里不能使用现在分词作状语,故D错误。有的学生认为可以将动词原形 compare用于祈使句,但是由于compare是及物动词,其后要跟宾语,而且由于在同一个句号前不可以出现两个既不是并列关系,也不是从属关系的句子,故B不是正确答案。when和while等连词引导时间状语从句时,当从句主语和主句主语一致,而且从句动词是be的形式时,可以将从句的主语和be的变化形式省略,A和C都符合这一规定,但是由于 compare和被省略掉的主语the highest mountain是逻辑上的动宾关系,故此处只能使用过去分词,例如:When deeply absorbed in what he was reading,which he often was,he forgot all other things.他常常聚精会神地读书,这时他就会把其他一切事情全忘掉。
22.B 【句意】我一知道发生了什么事,我就给你打电话。
【解析】as soon as引导时间状语从句时,从句中通常用一般时替代将来时,主句则用将来时。据此,可以排除 C。be going to do sth.虽也表示将来,但侧重“打算做某事,安排好做某事”,故D也应予以排除。A中的 does happen强调谓语,此处不合题意。B中的has happened强调某种结果,符合题意,因此B为正确答案。
23.C【句意】你需要的就是休息。
【解析】anything常用于疑问句和否定句。虽然something可用于肯定句中,但表示“某事,某物”之意。all在现代英语中可以作一个句子的主语、宾语或补语,但后面需接一个定语从句.在这种情况下,all可能有两个含义:一个相当于everything,另一个相当于the only thing(s)。根据句子结构,此处all作第二层意思讲。因此C为正确答案,A,B和D均不正确。
24.D【句意】尽管你的意见值得考虑,委员会认为它不值得重视。【解析】as可用来引导时间状语从句、方式状语从句和让步状语从句,分别意为“当……时候,随着……”,“正如”,“虽然,尽管”,该词引导让步状语从句时,从句要位于主句前,而且从句内容要倒装,例如:Successful as he is,he is not proud.他虽然成功了,却不骄傲。provided用来引导条件状语从句,意为“只要”,例如:I will lend you my book provided that you keep it clean.只要不把书搞脏,我会把书借给你.since t用来引导时间状语从句和原因状语从句,意为“自从;因为”,例如: He has written once since he left.他自去后曾来过一封信。连词while不但可以引导时间状语从句,而且还可以引导让步状语从句,作“尽管”讲,例如:English and French are living languages while Latin is dead.英语和法语是现在都有人说的语言,而拉丁语现在却没有人说了。
25.B【句意】考虑到你在学校里的成绩是如此之差,我们认为你应当努力学习。
【解析】in view of意为“考虑到,鉴于”,如:In view of his youth,the police have decided not to continue with the case against him.念在他年轻,警方决定不对他起诉.而in spite of作“尽管,不顾”讲,如: I went out in spite of the rain.尽管下雨,我仍然外出。in charge of意为“主管,掌管”,如。She is in charge of the work now.她目前掌管这一工作。in case of意为“假使,如果发生”,如: In case of fire,ring the alarm bell.万一有火情,请按警铃。
26.A【句意】其他条件相同的情况下,表达流畅的人要比语言能力差的人更容易成功。
【解析】从句子结构可以看出,本句的前面部分是表示条件的状语,other things being equal是一个分独立结构,可以作条件状语,如: Other things being equal,a shorter statement is preferred.其他条件相同的情况下,优先选用较短的陈述。除在极个别的情况下,分词作状语时,应与句子的主语存在一定的逻辑关系(主谓或动宾关系),否则该分词就应该有自己的逻辑主语或逻辑宾语,来构成“名词或代词 + 分词”结构,即独立分词结构,独立分词结构一般可置于句首,也可置于句末,用来表示原因、时间、条件、方式或伴随情况等,如:The experiment being over,the students began their discussion.做完实验,学生们开始讨论。Silver is the best conductor,copper following behind.银是最好的导体,铜次之。Were other things equal是虚拟语气条件从句,而后面的句子是陈述语气,To be equal to other things是不定式,可以作目的状语,但不能作条件状语,Other things to be equal这样的结构不存在,因此,正确答案是A。
27.D【句意】尽管他喜欢她,但他不能爱她。
【解析】though,although和as均可引导让步状语从句,作“即使,尽管”讲,as引导的让步状语从句必须使用倒装语序.如: Complex as is the orbit of the moon, it is possible to predict unerringly eclipses many years in advance of their occurrence.尽管月球的运行轨道很复杂,但是人们仍然能提前许多年准确无误地预报日(月)食。因此,A不对。although从句必须使用正常语序,所以 C不对。though既可用倒袋,也可用正常语序,故 D正确。尽管 B采用了倒装,但是 much放的位置不对,故也不是正确答案。
28.C【句意】喝过咖啡,Henry洗了被子放了起来。
【解析】after是介词,后需接动名词,而drunk是过去分词,因此D错误。英语中没有 have drinking sth.这一说法,所以 A也错误。B的结构虽然正确,但现在分词一般时作时间状语时,一般表示该动作与主句谓语动词表示的动作同时发生,因此B不合题意。C使用现在分词的完成时,表示该动作在主句谓语动词表示的动作以前发生,如:Having failed to qualify as a doctor,I took up teaching.我由于没能取得当医生的资格,便从事了教学工作.所以C为正确答案。
29.B【句意】不管是贫是福,我都会爱他。
【解析】be he rich or poor是让步状语从句,相当于whether he is rich or poor,如:All magnets behave the same, be they large or small.磁铁无论大小作用都是一样的。30.A【句意】尽管年纪还小,这个小女孩能够帮她母亲做些家务。
【解析】as可以引导让步状语从句时,可以把形容词、副词和名词提前,当名词提前时,不加冠词。语法词汇综合练习三 赵文通

1.B【句意】尽管是为小孩写的,但白雪公主的故事对许多成年人同样具有吸引力。
【解析】though可以引导让步状语从句,当从句的主语和主句的主语一致,而且从句的谓语动词是be的形式时,可将从句的主语和be的形式省略,如: Though born in Chicago,the writer wrote many stories about New York City.那位作家虽然生在芝加哥,却写了许多关于纽约的小说。因此B为正确答案。A中没有省略主语it,因而错误。C中过去分词短语后置,D中缺少从属连词,所以C和D也错误。2.B【句意】不论在什么地方,劳动号子以最基本的形式表现了这个民族的文化。
【解析】wherever用作连接副词,意为“无论在哪里”,引导一个让步状语从句,如:Wherever you go,you will always find the same thing.不论你走到哪里,你总会发现同样的事情。由此可见,B既符合语法又符合题意,为正确答案。A为一个分句,和下文之间缺少连接词,故不正确。C为现在分词短语,其中where后没接任何成分,不合语法,也不正确。D为一特殊疑问句,不符合整个句子结构,也应排除。3.D【句意】“有人在车祸中受了轻伤”,这说明受的伤是什么样的?
【解析】deadly意为“致命的,(可能)致死的”,如:Fog is one of the sailor's deadliest enemies.雾是水手的死敌之一。serious意为“严重的”,如: His illness is nothing serious.他的病一点也不严重。fatal意为“致命的,悲惨的”,如: They cyclist was knocked down by a lorry and received fatal injuries.那个骑自行车的人被卡车撞成重伤。原题中slightly意为“轻微地,不严重地”,据此可以看出正确答案应为D。4.A【句意】“你了解加拿大吗?”“不了解,我从来没有去过那里。”
【解析】过去完成时需有过去时间作参照,以表示出“过去的过去”这么一个概念,如: The train had left when I got to the station.我到达车站时,火车已经开走了。因此B和 D均不合适。have been to someplace和 have gone to someplace的区别在于:前者说明“去过某地,现在已不在那里了”;后者说明“已经去了某地,现在在那里或在去那里的路上,不在这里”。很显然,C有悖常识。故只能选A。5.B【句意】“还有人需要票去看看电影吗?”“你希望谁去?你、乔治还是我?”
【解析】我们首先将第二个句子改写为正常语序的句子: You would rather have whom go with you, George or me?我们就不难看出 go是省略了to的不定式,作宾语whom的补足语。6.C【句意】“还有双人桌吗?”我问道。服务员答道“这边清。”
【解析】“This way,please.”是用来给别人引路时的专门用语,意为“请这边走”。path,line和 road皆无此用法。
7.D 【句意】“这就是我答应给你的钱”,他说道,“我一直遵守诺言。”
【解析】agree一般为不及物动词,意为“同意,赞同”,常用于词组 agree with sb.或agree to a plan(suggestion),如:I don't agree with what you said.我不同意你的话。follow意为“听从,遵循,领会”,如: I regret not having followed your advice.我后悔没有听你的劝告。make a promise是固定搭配,意为“许诺”,如: He made a promise that he would come to help me with physics.他答应要来帮我学物理。而
30.A person who makes wise decisions has _______.keep a promise是“信守诺言”,如: One should keep his promise.人应该信守诺言。由此可见D为正确答案。
8.A【句意】“我希望你给我看些衣服。”这位顾客说道。
【解析】Show sb.sth.是固定搭配,意为“给某人看某物”, 如: Will you kindly show us that coat over there?请把那儿的上衣拿给我们看看好吗?see后面不能接双宾语,explain常用于explain sth.to sb.结构中,如: The teacher explained the text in detail to the students.老师详细地给学生讲解课文。provide用于provide sb.with sth.结构中,如:The Red Cross provides the orphans with food and clothes.红十字会给孤儿们提供衣食。
9.B【句意】“我不会去买那本书。”“我也不去,这本书太贵了。”
【解析】so和neither放在句首、且句子主谓倒装时,可以表示前一种情况也适合于后者,so用于肯定的情况,而neither则用于否定的情况。所以B正确而C错误.A不合适,因为A中的助动词和前面句子中的助动词不同。D也不正确,因为too作“也”讲时,一般用在肯定句中,而不用于否定句中。10.B【句意】“约翰现在不在这里,它可能从后门走了吗?”
【解析】句型 might have done表示对过去发生的可能性很小的推断,例如。A word of encouragement might have made me respect instead of hate him.一句鼓励的话或许就会使我尊敬他不是仇视他了。句型must have done表示对过去情况的肯定推断,意为“一定,想必”,例如: He must have forgotten to wind the clock last night,didn't he? 他昨晚准是忘记给表上弦了,不是吗?句型should have done表示“过去应该做但未做”,这是虚拟语气的一种特殊表达方式,例如:You should have snatched a free moment for writing a letter.你本应抽空写封信。
11.D【句意】“Michael今天早晨去了加利福尼亚。”“我以为他下周才来。”
【解析】英语中有些动词,如 go,arrive,get,come,leave,have等,可用其过去进行时来表示过去将来的动作,如: He said that he was arriving in ten minutes。他说 10分钟后就会赶到的。A为过去完成进行时,不符合题意,B和C的时态搭配错误,因而只有D是正确答案。12.A【句意】“直到科学变得重要起来,奴隶制度才被推翻。”有人说到。
【解析】如果选B,则主句中没有谓语动词;如选D,则会有两个从句,而没有主句,因此B和D都错误。如果选择A或C,直接引语部分构成一个主从复合句,根据句意,主句表示的动作发生在从句之后,因此,主句中的谓语动词也应使用一般过去时。例如: The greedy old woman ate and ate until she was full up.这个贪婪的老太婆不停地 吃,一直吃到很饱为止。另外,需要注意的是,当否定词或含有否定意义的词组位于句首作状语时,主谓颠倒。常见的否定词和具有否定意义的词组有:at no time, by no means, few, hardly in neither case, in no case, in no time, in no way, in vain, little, neither, never, no more, no sooner,nor,not,not once,not only,not until,on no account,rarely,scarcely,seldom,still less,under no condition,under no circumstances等,例如: Never in my life have l seen such a wonderful place.我一生中从来没见过如此美丽的地方。Not only was Churchill a statesman,but also a great writer。丘吉尔不但是一位政治家,而且也是一位伟大的作家。
13.B【句意】正如谚语所说,“说说是一码事,做起来又是一码事”。
【解析】as可作连词,引导方式状语从句,意为“正如„„,如同„„”,如: As luck would have it,I caught the last bus.幸运的是,我赶上了末班车。根据句子结构,这里需要一个连词引导从句,故A和D错误。for是并列连词,连接并列分句,用在此处也不会题意。
14.B【句意】“我们来晚了。戏剧已经开始了。我不知道是什么时候开始的。”
【解析】在这里关系副词短语how long ago引导的是一个宾语从句,因此从句中主谓不倒装。另外,在由“„ago”短语作状语的句子中,谓语动词一般要使用一般过去时,所以B是惟一正确答案。15.C【句意】“在哪可以找到Jim?”“他正忙着工作,直到下午六点钟才离开实验室。”
【解析】be at sth.是固定搭配,相当于 be busy with sth.或 be engaged in sth.,有“忙于„„”的意思。16.D 【句意】预算委员会所作报告的概要被送交市长等待审批。【解析】sketch意为“略述,纲要”,如: The speaker amused us with a sketch of city life in the 1890’s,讲演者给我们略述了19世纪90年代都市生活的概况,听起来很有意思。shorthand作“速记”讲,如:the secretary made shorthand notes.这位秘书作了速记。scheme意为“计划,方案”,如:He has contrived a scheme for the term's work.他已拟定了这个学期的工作计划.schedule作“日程表,时刻表,进度表”讲,如:Has he made the examination schedule yet?他把考试日程安排好了没有? 17.B 【句意】一种新的考试制度出现时,一种崭新的情况就会出现。
【解析】arise本意“起来,起身,升起”,作“出现,产生,发生”的意思讲时常用于抽象事物,如: The audience arose and remained standing.观众起身站着。rise意为“升起,上升,增高”,如: As the wind rose to eighty miles an hour,tree after tree crashed down.当风速升到每小时 80英里时,树一棵棵地倒了下来。raise意为“举起,增加,引起”,如:The scientists are developing a new machine to raise labor efficiency.科学家们正在研制一种新机器以提高劳动效率。arouse意为“唤醒,引起,激起”,是及物动词,后面一般限一个抽象名词作宾语,如:Chopin aroused very complicated emotions in her.肖邦的作品在她心中激起了异常复杂的感情。
18.A【句意】《红楼梦》据说在过去的十年中被翻译成了数十种语言。
【解析】本题旨在考查不定式的时态和语态。不定式的完成式表示不定式的动作在谓语动词的动作之前发生,如; He is said to have written a new book about workers.据说他又写了一本关于工人的书。当不定式的逻辑主语为该不定式所表示的动作的承受者时,不定式要用被动语态,如: It is an honor for me to be asked to make a speech here.我很荣幸应邀在这里演讲。根据句意我们知道,本句中的不定式的动作在谓语动词之前发生,又因为句子的主语与该不定式具有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以应用不定式的完成式,故A正确。C的时态不符合题意,D忽略了主语和不定式之间的逻辑关系,而B既不符合时态,又忽略了主语和不定式之间的逻辑关系、由此可见,B,C和D都不是正确答案。19.A【句意】在做出决定之前,我们急需要安排一次会议。
【解析】考察主语从句中虚拟语气的应用。当表语为important, urgent等形容词时,主语从句使用虚拟语气,形式为(should)+动词原形。20.C 【句意】没有人怀疑这是真的。
【解析】I doubt whether/if…我怀疑。I don’t doubt that …我毫不怀疑。又如:I doubt whether he can speak English.我怀疑他是否会说英语。21.B【句意】许多房子在地震中倒塌了。
【解析】a good many意为“相当多,很多”,后面要跟复数名词,谓语动词也应是复数形式,并且本句所讲述的是过去发生的动作,所以应用过去时。
22.A【句意】优秀的教师必须知道如何表达自己的思想。
【解析】convey此处意为“传达”,如:This picture will convey to you some idea of the beauty of the scenery.这幅画将把那里秀丽的风景向你传达一二。display则意为“展示,表现”,如: Our soldiers displayed no rear under the enemy's fire.我们的战士在敌人的炮火下毫无惧色。consult作“请教,咨询,查阅”讲,如:Have you consulted your doctor about your illness?你有没有看过医生?confront意为“面临,遭遇”,如: The soldiers were confronted by two terrorists as they left their camp.士兵们离开营房时碰到两个恐怖分子。23.B【句意】优秀的教师不应当在一堂课里面给学生灌输太多的知识。
【解析】confront with是一个固定搭配,意为“使„„面临,使„„面对”,如:The new system was confronted with great difficulties at the start.新制度开始时进到很大困难。
24.A【句意】大部分人类的活动,特别是和环境相联系的活动都是特定条件和特定事件的反映。【解析】in response to意为“响应,反应,回答”,如: He opened the door in response to a knock.听到敲门声,他去开门。in favor of作“赞成,支持”讲,如: Are you in favor of early marriage?你赞成早婚吗? in contrast to意为“与„„相反。与„„相对照”。如: In contrast to your belief that we shall fail,Iknow we shall succeed.你认为我们会失败,正好相反,我知道我们会成功。in excess of作“多于,超出”讲,如:He advised his son never to spend in excess of his income.他劝儿子绝对不可以入不敷出。25.B【句意】美满的婚姻并不一定能够带来共同的兴趣和责任。
【解析】result in意为“结果,导致”,如: These safety measures will result in the reduction of work accidents.这些安全措施将减少工伤事故。take over意为“接受,接管”,如: He told the assistant to takeover for him during his absence.他要助手在他不在时接替他的工作。hold on意为“紧握,等一会”,如: Hold on a minute till I put on my coat.等一下,我穿上大衣。keep to意为“遵守,坚持”,如: we must keep to the style of hard struggle and plain living.我们必须保持艰苦奋斗的作风。由此可见B最符合题意。26.A【句意】昨晚有人越狱,好长时间后,狱警才知道发生了什么事。
【解析】“It's„ before”句型表示“(„„之后)才„„”之意,如: It was several weeks before I got a decent night's rest.几星期以后我才得以好好地睡了一夜。故A符合题意。until意为“直到„„为止”,在否定句中多译为“直到„„才”,该词一般不用在“it is„until”(肯定)句型中, 如: They talked on until one o'clock In the morning.他们一直谈到凌晨一点钟。“It is(has been)„ since”句型表示“自„„以来已有„„时间了”,例如: It has been only twenty five years since television came to control American free time.电视开始主宰美国人的空闲时间,至今也不过才25年。when通常表示“在„„ 时”,用在本题不符合题意。
27.C 【句意】人必须为他的老年做准备,预备足够的钱以备年老时用。
【解析】provision意为“准备,预备”,如:They spent all their money and made no provision for the future.他们把钱都用光了,未留日后需用。assurance意为“保证”,如:He gave me his assurance that he would come.他向我保证他会来的。supply作“储备.供应”讲,常与介词of连用,如: we have a good supply of water here.我们这里的水供应充足。adjustment意为“调整,调节”,如: He is making some adjustments to his plan.他正调整他的计划。
28.D【句意】一封漂亮的信可以提高回信的机率。
【解析】response意为“回答,答复”,符合题合,如:My letter of inquiry brought no response.我的询问信始终未得到回音。circumstance常用复数,意为“情形,环境,状况”,如: Don’judge the crime until you know the circumstances.在你未了解一切情况之前,勿对罪行下判断。request作“请求,要求”讲,如:The professor gave us a lecture at our request.应我们的要求,教授给我们讲了一课。reception意为“接待,招待会”,如: We have a special room for the reception of patients.我们为病人设了专门的接待室。29.C【句意】新技术的使用使得去年的产量增加了百分之二十。
【解析】根据句子结构,我们可以看出这里应使用独立分词结构。故D错误。由于动词work out和a new technique是逻辑动宾关系,故此处只能使用过去分词的独立结构或使用被动语态的现在分词独立结构,例如: Machines having been used,People do more work with less energy.由于使用了机器,人们就能用较少的力气,干较多的工作。
30.C【句意】一个做出明智决定的人一定有很强的判断力。
【解析】a good brain意为“很聪明”,如:He has such a good brain that he is quick at learning anything.他很聪明,学什么都快。a good intention 意为“好的意图”,good imagination意思是“丰富的想像力”,而good judgement则用来表了“判断力强”,如: He is a man of good judgement.他是一个判断力很强的人。根据句子结构及题意可知C为正确答案。
第四篇:2014年 成人学位英语冲刺试题及答案十
Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.You should decide on the best choi To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains.But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain.It was first used as a shade against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times.Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C.We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade.And there was a strange thing connected with its use;it became a symbol of honor and authority.In the Far East In ancient times, the umbrella was allowed-to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece.But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared.Then it appeared again in Italy in 16th century.And again it became a symbol of power and authority.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight.It wasn’’t until the twentieth century that women’’s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.1.The first use of umbrella was as_________.A protection against rain B a shade against the sun C a symbol of power D a symbol of honor 答案:B 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。“But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain.It was first used as a shade against the sun.”根据第一段最后一句话可以得知。2._________were regarded as the people who first used umbrellas.A Romans B Greeks C Chinese D Europeans 答案:C 本题考查的是考生对具体句子的理解。“Probably the first to use it were the Chinese,”根据第二段可直接得知。
3.The umbrella was used only by royal people or those in high office_________.A in European in the eighteenth century B in ancient Egypt and Babylon C in the Far East in ancient times D during the Middle Ages 答案:C 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。“In the Far East In ancient times,the umbrella was allowed to be
used only by royal people or by those in high office.”根据第三段最后一句可得知。4.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A Women enjoy using umbrella with varies kinds of colors B The inventor of the umbrella is unknown C Once ordinary people had no right to use umbrellas D Umbrellas were popular and cheap in the ancient times 答案:D 本题考查的是考生对全文的把握以及关键点的理解。“And there was a strange thing connected with its use;it became a symbol of honor and authority.In the Far East In ancient times,the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.”可知,雨伞在古代曾经是权利和荣耀的象征,所以只能由皇族和高官持有,故此项不对。
5.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage? A When Was the Umbrella Invented B The Role of Umbrella in History C The Colors and Shapes of Umbrella D Who Needed Umbrella First 答案:B 本题考查的是考生对全文意思的把握。通读全文可知,文章讲雨伞的不同角色,包括遮阳,遮雨,在古代还能象征权利和荣誉,所以B能最好地概括全文,其他项都太过片面。
How can we get rid of garbage(垃圾)? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today.Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time.They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped(倾倒)it on empty land.Now, empty land is scarce.But more and more garbage is produced each year.However, garbage can be a good fuel to use.The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas;but they are chemically similar to these fossil(化石)fuels.As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage is not a new idea.Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years.The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings.In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year.The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited.Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs.This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.6.What two problems can man solve by burning garbage? A The shortage of energy and air pollution.B The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.C Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.D Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.答案:B 细节题。见第二段“Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time.They suggest using garbage as an energy source,and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.”有人认为我们可以同时把两个问题解决:一是解决了能源紧缺的问题;二是节省了填埋垃圾的土地。
7.Which of the following is NOT the result of burning garbage? A The garbage burned is turned into fossil fuels.B The heat produced is used to boil water.C The steam produced is used to make electricity.D The steam produced is used to heat buildings.答案:A 细节题。根据“The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used、to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings.”可知只有A不正确。8.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A About 2 million metric tons of garbage is burned in France each year.B In a modern society, more and more garbage is produced each year.C Using garbage is a good way to solve the problem of energy shortage.D It will be too expensive to use garbage as an energy source.答案:D 细节题。文章中根本就没有提到燃烧垃圾以获取能源的方法花费很高。9.What is the author’s attitude? A Delighted.B Sad.C Agreeing.D Disagreeing.答案:A 作者态度题。文章最后一段就表明了作者的态度。他认为通过燃烧垃圾发电可以作为解决能源短缺的一种途径,同时还可减少垃圾的堆积。
10.The best title for the passage may be________.A Garbage and the Earth B Fossil Fuel and Garbage C Land and Garbage D Garbage—Energy Source 答案:D 主旨题。全文主要谈论用垃圾发电来解决能源短缺的问题。
Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit.About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly.It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women.Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’’s smoking habit.City people smoke more than people living on farms.Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes.On the other hand,if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups.These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar.There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas.Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11.What do we know from the first paragraph ? A More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B There are more smoking women than smoking men in U.S.A.C It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D The U.S.has more smoking people than any other country.答案:C 很多人戒烟是个好消息。在文章的第一段,作者便提到,看到有数百万的人戒烟是令人振奋的。所以选C. 12.What factors determine a person’s smoking habits ? A Age, income and education.B Age, sex and income.C Occupation, income and sex.D Occupation, income and education.答案:D 文章第三段的开头,Income,education,and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habit.收入、教育和职业都在人们的吸烟习惯中起到决定性的作用。13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ? A City people are less likely to smoke.B People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C Men with higher income tend to smoke.D Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.答案:D 高知识、高收入的男人不太容易吸烟。文章第三段提到,Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes.文化程度和教育程度越高,吸烟的人越少。所以选D。
14.What is the smoking situation for women ? A The situation is quite the same for women as for men.B Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C There are more women smokers with low incomes.D Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.答案:B 文章第四段提到,女性的情况跟男性相反。These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.教育程度越高,吸烟数量越多。
15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ? A The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D Farmers’ children tend to smoke more.答案:B 青少年的情况与成年男人相似。最后一段提到These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.那些来自高收入、高知识家庭和乡村家庭的孩子吸烟的人数较少。Part II Vocabulary and Structure(30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then mark the corresponding lett 16.Since this road is wet and slippery this morning, it_________ last night.A must rain B was raining C must have rained D may rain 答案:C 本题考查情态动词+完成时的用法,表示对已经发生的事情的肯定猜测。本句的意思是:“既然今天早晨路上又湿又滑.昨晚肯定下雨了。”

to 【B9】 how old they are.【B10】 such a question, it is quite acceptable to discuss age 【B11】.They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than 【B12】 that they look very old!【B13】 Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 【B14】 that they are not interested to know how old other people are.They may ask someone else 【B15】 the information, 【B16】 they may try to 【B17】 the topic indirectly.Sometimes discussions about educational 【B18】 and the number of years of working experience may provide some 【B19】 , but this is not always t he 【B20】.56.A on B for C in D of 答案:D 特别是对于妇女来说be true of是固定搭配。57.A that B such C than D so 答案:D even more so„更是如此;从词性搭配的角度来看,more是形容词,只能接副词,名词。不能是代词。C选项是不符合的。58.A average B normal C expected D unusual 答案:B 本题考查的是词语的意思。average平均(一般指数字)normal表示一般,正常expected盼望,期待unusual与众不同的 59.A being asked B asking C to ask D to be asked 答案:A 本题考查的是动词的语态。文章中指的是被问到,所以用被动,mind dong sth。60.A reveal B reflect C release D remark

第五篇:2014年 成人学位英语冲刺试题及答案五
Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.You should decide on the best choi Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing.In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter.“You’’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer”.The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair.For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded.When I left a 20-year career in the U.S.Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all.What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building.It didn’’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself.It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat.But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years.I wasn’’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure.This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1.The passage is meant to______.A warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience B advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer C show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame D encourage young people to pursue a writing career 答案:A 这道题考察考生对文章的整体把握能力。作者在开头便点明写作和成为作家是不同的,指出 很多年轻人的想法是不成熟的。接下来又以亲身经历说明成为作家的艰辛。2.What can be concluded from the passage? A Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D The chances for writer to become successful are small 答案:D 一个作家成功的比率是非常小的。在文章的第二段中提到For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded.虽然有一些可以得到财富,但上千的作家的努力却得不到回报。说明作家成功是非常困难的。
3.Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career? A He wasn’t able to produce a single book.B He hadn’t seen aching for the better.C He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.D He though that he lacked imagination.答案:B 作者在从事写作的第一年怀疑自己是应为他没有看到情况比一开始有所好转。4.„people who die wondering: What if ?(Para-3)refers to “those_____”.A who think too much of the dark side of life B who regret giving up their career halfway C who think a lot without making a decision D who are full of imagination even upon death 答案:C 因为这些人总去问what if,说明他们总是犹豫不决,对自己的未来举棋不定,做不出最终决定。5.Shadowland in the last sentence refers to_____.A the wonderland on often dreams about B the bright future that one is looking forward to C the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reached D a world that exists only in one’s imagination 答案:C 这道题考察对词汇的理解。shadowland是指一种在目标实现前的不确定状态。A youngster’’s social development has a profound effect on his academic progress.Kids who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up behind academically as well and have a higher chance of dropping out(退学).In the early grades especially, experts say, youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can spot children who may be having problems making friends.“When children work on a project”, says Lillian Kate, an educational professor at the University of Illinois, “they learn to work together, to disagree, to think, to take turns and lighten tensions.These skills can’’t be learned through lecture.We all know people who have wonderful technical skills but don’’t have any social skills.Relationships should be the first R.” At a certain age, children are also learning to judge themselves in relation to others.For most children, school marks the first time that their goals are not set by an internal clock but by the outside world.Just as a 1-year-old struggling to walk, a 6-year-old is struggling to meet adults’’ expectations.“Young kids don’’t know how to distinguish between effort and ability.” says Professor Hill, an early-childhood educator for the state of New Jersey, “If they try hard to do something and fail, they may conclude that they will never be able to accomplish a particular task.The effects of obvious methods comparison such as posting grades can be serious”, says Hills, “a child who has had his confidence really damaged needs a rescue operation”.6.The author seems to think that a kid’s poor relationship with his classmates would________.A have negative effects on his study B develop his individualism but limit his intelligence C eventually lead to his leaving school D have nothing to do with his achievements in a course 答案:A 细节题。第一段第二句提到“Kids who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up behind academically as well and have a higher chance of dropping out.”与同学相处不好有可能使学习退步,而且辍学的可能性也变大了。C最具干扰性,人际关系不好,并不一定都会辍学。7.In the first paragraph, the word “spot” means________.A teach B help C find
D treat 答案:C 词汇题。“„youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can spot children who may be having problems making friends.”根据句意,老师鼓励孩子参加集体活动,这样他们才能发现哪些孩子不善于与同学相处。由此可推断spot意为“发现。” 8.For most children, school makes them understand________.A that it is society rather than individual that decides one’s future B that they can meet the social needs C that one’s effort and one’s ability can be two quite different matters D that social needs and individual needs have nothing in common 答案:A 细节题。第二段第二句说“For most children,school marks the first time that their goals are not set by an internal clock but by the outside world.”对于大多数孩子来说,学校让他们首次意识到他们的目标不是由自己说了算,而是受社会的影响的。
9.Which of the following is most unlikely for the author to do? A To talk to the students who have mental problems.B To help students develop a feeling of self-respect.C To keep a student from playing alone.D To announce a student’s scores in public.答案:D 细节题。文章提到“The effects of obvious methods comparison such as posting grades can be serious”,采取明显的比较优劣的方法,如公布学生的分数,会产生严重的后果,因此,作者是不会这样做的。10.Which of the following is the major concern of the passage about a student’s needs? A Individualism and cooperation.B Academic success and independent thinking.C Socialization and feeling of confidence.D Intelligence and respect.答案:C 主旨题。文章的第一句和最后一句就是本文所关心的问题:“A youngster’s social development has a profound effect on his academic progress.”“Times,a child who has had his confidence really damaged needs a rescue operation.”可以看出,本文对孩子的社会化和自信心非常关注。
The agriculture revolution in the nineteenth century involved two things;the invention of labor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture.Labor-saving machinery naturally appeared first where labor was scarce.“In Europe”, said Thomas Jefferson, “the object is to make the most of their land, labor being sufficient;here it is to make the most of our labor, land being abundant.” It was in America, therefore, that the great advances in nineteenth — century agricultural machinery first came.At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude(粗糙的)plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.By 1860, most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early form.The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow.As early as 1890 Charles Newbolt of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his invention.The farmers, however, would home none of it, claiming that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds grow.Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to
the plow, until in 1869, James Oliver of South Bend, Indiana, turned out the first chilled-steel plow.11.The word “here”(Para, 1)refers to_________.A Europe B America C New Jersey D Indiana 答案:B 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。根据here上文Thomas Jefferson(美国人)和下文的in America,这里的“here”指的是美国。
12.Which of the following statement is NOT true? A The need for labor helped the invention of machinery in America B The farmer rejected Charles Newbolt’s plow for fear of ruin of their fields.C Both Europe and America had great need for farm machinery.D It was in Indiana that the first chilled-steel plow was produced.答案:C 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。文章中有这样的句子:“In Europe„the object is to make the most of their land,labor being sufficient;here it is to make the most of our labor,and land being abundant.(在欧洲„„我们的目标是劳动力充足,要充分利用土地;在美国土地充足,要正确使用劳动力。)”因此说欧洲和美国都亟须农业机械化是错误的。C正确答案。13.The passage is mainly about_________.A the agriculture revolution B the invention of labor saving machinery C the development of scientific agriculture D the farming machinery in America 答案:B 此题考查的是考生对整篇短文主要内容的理解。由第一部分文章总体结构分析“围绕节省劳力的机械发明展开”文章的中心思想应当是“节省劳力的机器发明”。
14.At the opening of the nineteenth-century, farmers in America_________.A preferred light tools B were extremely self-reliant(自给的)C had many tools D had very few tools 答案:D 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。文章中有这样的句子:“At the opening of the century,with the ex-caption of a crude plow,farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.(在本世纪初,除了一个粗糙的耕犁之外,农民可以把其余所有的农具放在背上。)”说明当时的农具很少。D为正确答案。
15.It is implied but not stated in the passage that_________.A there was a shortage of workers on American farms B the most important of the early invention was the iron plow C after 1869, many people devoted their attention to the plow D Charles Newbolt had made a fortune by his cast-iron plow
答案:A 本题是推断题,也是对文章细节的考查。根据“In Europe„the object is to make the most of their land,labor being sufficient;here it is to make the most of our labor,and land being abundant.(在欧洲„„我们的目标是劳动力充足,要充分利用土地;在美国土地充足,要正确使用劳动力。)”可推知“美国缺乏劳动力。”B在文章中“The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow.”有说明;根据“many people devoted their attention to the plow,until in 1869,James Oliver of South Bend,Indiana,turned out the first chilled steel plow.”可知C与此句意思相反,为错误项。根据“spent his entire fortune in introducing his invention.The farmers,However,would home none of it”可推知Charles Newbolt并没有因此而发财,D项也错误。Part II Vocabulary and Structure(30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then mark the corresponding lett 16.Today the police can watch cars_________ on roads by radar.A run B to run C running D to be run 答案:C 本题考查的是watch一词的用法,即watch sb/sth do/doing,do表示瞬间动作;doing则表示正在进行或当前状态,这里侧重正在进行,因而选C。
17.Before the guests come, I must get the glasses______.A washed B to be washed C being washed D to wash 答案:A 此题考查的是常见动词后的宾补用法,也属于非谓语动词的范围。Get+宾语+done,表示让/使„被„,这里是让杯子被洗,故选A。
18.It is hot and dry;the flowers need_________.A being watered B be watered C to water D to be watered 答案:D 这里是固定用法,need to be done前面的被修饰词与be done的动词是被动关系。19.Do you think Tommy is________ the truth? A saying B speaking C telling D talking 答案:C 动词用法。tell the truth说实话。如:How do we know you’re telling the truth?我们怎么知道你说的是真的?你认为汤姆在说真话吗?
