答案与解析 A组
1. A though为副词,意为“然而”,常用在句尾。 2. A cannot/never too,为固定句式、表示“怎么……也不过分,”“越……越好”,如:You cannot be too careful in your work.越细心越好。
3. A throw off意为“匆匆脱掉(衣物),扔掉,摆脱掉”,throw out为“(尤指无意间)吐露,说出”,throw about为“乱扔”,throw away意为“扔掉,抛弃”。
4. A 先行词在定语从句中充当主语的定语时要用whose;修饰worker要用careless,而不能用副词carelessly。
5. B 该题考查定语从句与强调句的综合运用时连接词的选用。the restaurant之后有介词in,表明要接which引导的定语从句;后空为强调句。
6. C 该题考查分词短语的用法。the letter与invite之间存在主谓关系,故要用现在分词作后置定语。
7. D 句意为:我们没有必要练习“站”,“坐”,“说”,但我未听说有哪个学生不尽力的。A(收到……的来信)、B(想……)、C(考虑)都不符合句意。
8. C Mr White does为定语从句修饰all;后为强调形式does do。 9. C 本句意为我刚才正在想别的事,故为过去时态。 10. B pay back表“偿还”,pay for仅表“付钱”。
11. D 四个选项中只有scores of能修饰复数名词。many a修饰单数名词。 12. B in the dark表示“蒙在鼓里,一无所知”。 13. D 不定式做定语,且表被动,故选D。
14. B 游泳者与赛跑者相比较,有相似点,故选B。 15. B 胶卷的冲洗要用develop一词。 B组
1. B 接电话的服务员要查一下记录看是否有多余的房间,故请预订人等一下。 2. you think是插入成份。定语从句缺作主语的人及be动词。
3. A get along well表“进展顺利”,符合题意,即“不了解每个单词的准确含义,读者(在阅读时)也进展很好(读得懂)”。
4. B come out表“出版,出现,变明白”;come about为“发生”;come along表示“赶快,再努力一点”,常用在祈使句中;come up意为“(种子)发芽,发生,被提出”。
5. A 此处value用作动词,表示“珍视,重视”之意;若选B项,则pay high respect之后要加介词to。
6. C what=the thing that。若用which引导非限制性定语从句,which指代整个主句的意思,则which不能放在主句之前,或插入到主句中间,只能放在主句之后。 7. D 这是一个强调句型即:it was十地点十that...,被强调部分中的room后面的词that为强调句型中的连词山at,其后空的that引导宾语从句。
8. A consider作“考虑”时,其后接动名词作宾语;若作“认为,以为”时,其后可接复合宾语consider sb. to do sth因此可以变成be considered to do…;根据句意是在“认为”之前完成,故不定式要用完成式。
9. A as表“正如”,引导非限制性定语从句,代替后面整个主句的意思。
10. D 该题考查反意疑问句的反问部分。陈述句的must have been dismissed表示对过去情况的推测,该句相当于I think the employee was dismissed by the employer last month,故其反问应为wasn't he。
11. B 该题考查虚拟语气的用法。从句意:“你本来是可以用我的车子,因我当时不用它,
而你未用,”可知该空表示的是与过去事实相反的假设。用could have done。
12. C 该题中的her prettiness是Lisa的容貌,属“包含”的内容,故要apart from(besides)。 13. B the time是点时间,故不能用介词for;the time之后用when引导定语从句。 14. A 由句意:“你有什么东西要让我为你带去吗?”可知该处应用to be done结构。 15. A the chance is that是一固定句式。
