If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day, As youenter each zone, the time changes one hour.Traveling west, you set clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead.Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours. If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the International Date Line.By agreement, this is the point where a new daybegins.When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward.Traveling east, today bees yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow. 46.Strange things happen to time when you travel because ____________________________A.no day really has twenty-four hoursB.the earth is divided into time zonesC.time zones are not all the same sizeD.no one knows where time zones begin47.The time difference between two neighboring zones is ________________________________A.one dayB.twenty-five hoursC.one hourD.twenty-three hours48.According to paragraph 2, it seems true that the Atlantic Ocean________________________A.is one time zoneB.is divided into five time zonesC.is divided into twenty-four time zonesD.cannot be crossed in five days49.If you cross the ocean going east, you set your clock________________________A.ahead one hour in each new time zoneB.ahead one hour for the whole tripC.back one hour in each new time zoneD.back one hour for the whole trip50.The International Date Line is the name for________________________A.the beginning of any new time zoneB.any point where time changes by one hourC.the point where a new day startsD.any time zone in the Pacific OceanTask 2Directions: This task (No.51 to 55) is the same as Task1Today almost 70% of the electrical power we use es from power plants that use fossil fuels (矿物燃料) tomake electricity.Fossil fuels, such as oil, coal, and natural gas, are burned to make electricity.Burning fossil fuels releases pollution and carbon dio____ide gas (CO2) into the air.The more fossil fuels we burn, the warmer the air around Earth gets.So buildingfossil fuel plans is not always the best answer. Actually, there are other ways to make electricity without burning fossil fuels.People have been using the power of wind for centuries.Wind power won’t solve all our energy problems, but it can help meet some of the demands in certain places.Since the late 1800s, scientists have been working to turn the sun’s energy into electricity by using solar cells (太阳能电池).The problem is, solar cells are verye____pensive.Another way to make electricity is to use nuclear energy.It has been used for more than 50 years.Today about 10 percent of all the electricity used in the U.S.A.es from this source. Although nuclear power doesn’t pollute the air as the burning of fossil fuels does, there is a major drawback .The waste products from nuclear power plants are dangerousand must be stored in safe places.Many people are concerned about the safety of nuclear power. 51.The best title for this passage may be________________________________A.The Importance of ElectricityB.The Pollution of Making Electricity from Fossil FuelsC.The Advantage of Using Nuclear EnergyD.Means of Making Electrical Power52.Which energy has damage to us according to the passage?A.Wind powerB.Fossil fuelsC.Solar powerD.Water power53.We can infer from the passage that____________________________________A.burning fossil fuels to make electricity is widely usedB.wind power is a widespread way to makeelectricityC.energy problems will soon be solvedD.nuclear energy will solve all the energy problems we are facing54.What does the u nderlined word “drawback”(in Para.3)mean?A.effectB.advantageC.disadvantageD.concern55.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Fossil fuels should be encouraged to use to make electricityB.Not all the areas could use wind power.C.Solar energy costs the mosting nuclear energy will not produce negative effect. Task 3Directions: This task (No.56 to No.60) is the same as Task 1.

I had to keep changing the 3 every time she leaned over to talk to him, 4 he leaned over to kiss her. Why do Americans display such 5 in a public place?I thought the movie would be good for my English, but 6 turned out, it was an Italian movie. 7 about an hour I decided to give up on the movie and 8 on my popcorn (爆玉米花). I've never understood why they give you so much popcorn! It tasted pretty good, 9 . After a while I heard 10 more of theromantic-sounding Italians. I just heard the 11 of the popcorn crunching (咀嚼) between my teeth. My thought started to 12 . I remembered when I was in South Korea (韩国), I 13 to watch Kojak on TV frequently. He spoke perfect Korean --- I was really amazed. He seemed like a good friend to me, 14 I saw him again in New York speaking 15 English instead of perfect Korean.

A) workedB) gotC) came D) madePart Ⅲ Reading comprehensionPassage OneAs a child I was very introverted, often spending my time on the computer, reading, playing video games, or pursuing other solo hobbies. I’d spend time outdoors biking, exploring the nearby fields and hills, or shootinghoops(投篮),but I’d usually favor doing these things alone or with people I knew very well. I never felt too comfortable around strangers, and I never cared for big family events. Psychological tests like the Myers-Briggs pegged(认定) me as anintrovert. Anyone who knew me would have described me as an introvert without a second thought.Like many introverts I was pressured by others to socialize more. But I largely resisted this pressure, partly because I enjoyed being an introvert. I often viewed extroverts as lacking in intelligence and depth, and I couldn’t say I wanted to count myself among them.Here are some suggestions for how to become more extroverted:Envision the type of extrovert you’d like to be. What’s your ideal outcome? If you feel too introverted and want to be more extroverted, start by working on your vision of your outcome.Play from your strengths.It’s interesting that many introverts have no trouble socializing online. In that environment they are able to play from their strengths. After I graduated from college, I met a woman on a local BBS. We got to chat online over a period of weeks. Eventually we met in person and became friends. And my social calendar went from empty to full almost overnight. If you socialize online, see if you can use that strength to build new local relationships.Join a club. The advantage is that you’ll find people who share similar interests, which makes it easier to build new relationships. One good club can fill your social calendar. If you join a club and find that it is not right for you, quit and join something else. One good group is all you need.Develop your social skills consciously. You can learn to become better at building rapport(和谐关系), introducing yourself, keeping a conversation going, asking someone out on a date, feeling socially comfortable instead of nervous, and so on. You build these skills because it will greatly enhance your life.1.This passage is mainly about______.A. the steps of converting an extrovert to an introvertB. the merits and demerits of being introvertedC. the advice about becoming more extrovertedD. the suggestions on how to pursue new hobbies2. As an introvert, what pressure did the writer have to face?A. To smile more.B. To go outside more.C. To exercise more.D. To socialize more.3. What did the writer think extroverts lack?A. Intelligence and depth.B. Knowledge and vision.C. Imagination and creativity.D. Stability and wisdom.4. Why do introverts feel at ease socializing online?A. Because it enables them to find self-confidence.B. Because it enables them to chat without fears.C. Because it enables them to become more sociable.D. Because it enables them to play from their strengths.5. Why is it easier to build a new relationship in a club?A. Because you can find people who share common interests.B. Because people there will help you by giving you advice.C. Because you can make your social calendar go from empty to full.D. Because you can always find a good group you need.下载全文。

For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket appro ach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want tocongratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.

Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge roomsfroma small opening on the side of the mountain. Approxim ately one milefromthe entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sandscrawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still noendto the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.

Many old Indian objects.70. It can be inferredfromthe passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as __A. an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast atthe start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition a t Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A. the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.A. several studies have been done in the past few yearsB. the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC. adults have especially made studies in this fieldD. eating little in the morning is good for health73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improveperformance” means ______.A. anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfast improve performanceC. having breakfast does not improve performance, eitherD. people having breakfast do improve their performance74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.A. stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.A. breakfast does not affect performanceB. Dr.Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningC. not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenD. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science(B.S.) degree. Some students attenda junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entranceexaminations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76. College education is _______ in America.A. quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A. entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78. How can poor students attendprivate schools?A. Only by working at part-time jobs.B. Only by working at full-time jobs.C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.A. discuss problems on philosophyB. play ballsC. earn enough moneyD. go to the cinemas or theatres80. The best title for this passage is _______.A. Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ.

One day when he wsa five, his father saw him 2 on some eggs, and asked what he was doing that for. Tom did not reply. In stead, he asked his father why he was not able to hatch chickens while hens could.Young Tom was in school for only three months. 3 Those three moths, he askeda lot of questions. Most of them had nothing to do 4 his lessons. His teacher didi not understand why the boy had so many strang questions. He told Tom’s mother that Tom was not brignt and was not worth 5 . His mother took him 6 school and taught him herself. The boy 7a lot. He became very interested in science.By the time he was ten, he had already built a chemistry lab for himself. He planted vegetables in his garden and sold them to buy 8 he needed for his lab.Once his mother was ill and she sent 9 a doctor. The doctor said she needed an operation at once. But it was night and the lamp in the room gave poor light. Edison thought 10 . Finally he had an idea. He collected all the lamps in the house and 11 them on a long table. Then he placed a big mirror behind them.Now there was enough light, so the doctor could operate. Edison’s mother was saved.12 the age of twelve, Edison began selling newspapers on a train. When he was free, he printed a newspaper and sold copies to the railway workers.One day in August, 1862, Edison saw a little boy playing on the tracks at a station.A train was coming near quickil, and the boy was 13 frightened to move.

His mother and father were of Puritan(清教徒) religion. They left England and moved to the English colony of Massachusetts in order to escape persecution(迫害) for his father for two years. Then he went to work on his brother's newspaper. He became the editor of this paper when he was sixteen. Because he wanted to be independent,he went to Philadelphia. There he bought his own newspaper. He worked hard and saved his money. And by the age of 24 he was one of the most successful men in Philadelphia.In 1732 Franklin published a book POOL RICHARD'S ALMANAC( 历书,历本). Most almanacs contained information for farmers, such as information about the days and weeks of the year and about the weather. To his almanac, Franklin added wise saying, his observations about life, some of these saying are still famous today.

The service is available there three mornings a week at telephone No. 330564. This service is reported to have been called once every 15 minutes on average.

People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures.Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries. It is the biggest art museum in the world.The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a castle. In 1190, it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower. It had a river to keep out the enemies.Over the years, the number of the buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle no longer needed to be extended. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During times of peace, new treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became king of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries. One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy. Do Vinci’s “Mona Lisa” is the best-known painting in the museum today.In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum, just as it is now.

He is not like the young man of the early 19th century who came to sit at the feet of the masters and left as a master. That situation no longer exists, because now it is not only the student who changes. He may grow fast, but science grows still faster.The young German philosopher Hegel, writing at the beginning of the 19th century, believed that one man’s mind could contain all the knowledge of his times. At that time it was perfectly possible for a man to hold such a belief and to base his life on it. Hegel’s friend, Goethe wrote a famous poem about a young man who hoped to translate this purpose into reality. The young man in the poem was called Faust. But Hegel’s situation was slightly different from Faust’s, because Faust, the hero of the poem, had the devil to help him, while Hegel had only his professors. Today a very different situation exists, a situation in which the professors and the devil have lost most of their power. Today a student can’t master knowledge; he can only be its servant. He knows that he can become familiar only with a small corner of knowledge, and that his learing will always be imperfect and incomplete. But he can still hope to add something to the sum of knowledge, and so make the situation slightly more difficult for those who come after him.15. The poem about Faust is mentioned to tell usA. he was a young manB. he got the devil’s helpC. the situation was slightly more difficult for those who came after himD. today’s learing situation is much different from that in the past16. A student of the 20th century is faced with a new situation becauseA. he has to learn entirely on his ownB. he can never be a master nowC. science grows very fastD. he is changing all the time17. Today a student know thatA. his knowledge is often incorrectB. he can’t learn more than the students in the 19th century didC. those who come after him will have greater difficulties in learningD. his knowledge is very limited compared with the total amount18. The best title for this passage might beA. Hegel, the Great German PhilosopherB. The Learing Situation in the Modern UniversityC. How to Study at a Modern UniversityD. The Rapid Development of science19. According to the passage, we know that Hegel is .A. PhilosopherB. ArtistC. PhysicistD. Scientists Passage 5During a television play the sound man must be ready to make every sound as it is needed. Sound effects are of three kinds: real, imitated and recorded.Real sounds are those of doorbells, telephone bells, and other small objects easy to keep in a studio. But the sound man must imitate many sounds. For bacon frying, he crumples cellophane paper. A long sheet of metal hanging in a doorway makes thunder. He taps one rubber sink plunger and then another on a table to imitate a horse walking on pavement. For a horse galloping along a gravel road, the sound man can use the two halves of a coconut, pounding each in turn very fast on the table.Recorded sound effects are used for noises he can't himself produce offstage. He pays records for such sounds as a rooster crowing, a train leaving a station, and a baby crying.The sound man is an important part of any television production.20. The sound man is important because he .A.is kept busyB.makes a TV play more lifelikeC.lets an actor know when to life a telephone receiverD.is always learning new methods21. The examples given for the first kind are .A.whistles and sirensB.doorbells and telephone bellsC.church bells and telephonr bellsD.typewriters and cash registers22.

The examples given for the second kind are .A.bacon fryingB.doorbellsC.telephone bellsD.a baby crying24. Recorded sound effects are used for a .A. train leaving a stationB. baby cryingC. rooster crowingD. all of the abovePassage 6Concern with money, and then more money, in order to buy the conveniences and luxuries of modern life, has brought great changes to the lives of most Frenchmen. More people are working than ever before in France. In the cities the traditional leisurely midday meal is disappearing. Offices, shops, and factories are discovering the greater efficiency of a short lunch hour in company lunch-rooms. In almost all lines of work emphasis now falls on ever-increasing output. Thus the "typical" Frenchman produces more, earns more, and buys more consumer goods than the people of only a generation ago. He gains in creature comforts and ease of life. What he loses to some extent is his sense of personal uniqueness, or individuality.Some say that France has been Americanized. This is because the United States is a world symbol of the technological society and its consumer products. The so-called Americanization of France has its critics. They fear that "assembly-line" will lead to the disappearance of the pleasures of the more graceful and leisurely ( but less productive) old French style. What will happen, they ask, to taste, elegance, and the cultivation of the good things in life - to joy in the smell of a freshly picked apple, a stroll by the river, or just happy hours of conversation in a local cafe? Since the 1950's life in France has indeed taken on qualities of rush, tension, and the pursuit of material gains. Some of the strongest critics of the new way of life are the young, especially university students. They are concerned with the future, and they fear that France is threatened by the triumph of this competitive culture. Occasionally, they have reacted against the trend with considerable violence. 25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a feature of the new French way of life?A. Efficiency.B. Competition.C. Tension.D. Taste.26. Which of the following might be a typical style of the old French life?A. Eating in a fast-food restaurantB. Travelling here and there by air.C. Going to the park on weekendsD. Spending holidays in a luxury hotel.27. Some of the young people in France criticize the new way of life because________.A. they themselves are not competent enough to adapt to the competitive societyB. they are more conservativeC. they fear the consequence of the new way of lifeD. they have no material pursuit28. The passage implies that __________.A. the French no longer like the new way of life.B. the French are losing something in pursuing material gainsC. the French are producing more but consuming less nowadaysD. the French prefer the old life style to the new onePartIV.

This is especially true in the business world. Americans often use first names upon meeting a stranger and do not always shake hands. They often just smile and say “Hi” or “Hello”, rather than using a more formal handshake.

几道非谓语动词作1. He walked in, _____A____ a book in his hand, went to a table near the window and sat down in silence.A. carryingB. carriedC. to carryD. having carried【解析】答案选A. 此题考查分词作状语的用法. 首先不定式表示目的和将来可以排除;having done强调动作的完成,不符合题意,只剩下A和B,这是一个并列句,句中有三个谓语动词walked in, went to 和sat down. 句中的carrying a book in his hand是现在分词,用作状语,修饰walked in,表伴随. 提醒:此题易错选B.2. _____B_____for many years, the novelist suddenly became famous.A. having ignoredB. Having been ignoredC. to have been ignoredD. to be ignored【解析】正确答案为B. 此题考查分词作状语. 因ignored和the novelist是动宾关系,而不是主谓关系,即“被忽视”,故可排除表主动意义的A. 至于C和D,首先可排除D,因为它是不定式的一般式,表示将来意义,与句意不符;而C是不定式的完成式,一般不作时间状语.3. _____B_____ to the consumers, more and more advertisers are using images of pop stars in their ads.A. AppealedB. to appealedC. appealingD. to be appealed【解析】正确答案为B,考查不定式的用法. 首先可以排除A和D,因为appeal是不及物动词,不能用过去分词表被动,从句意来看,题目想表达的是为了吸引消费者,不定式作目的状语,而现在分词一般情况下不能表目的,所以选B.4.—What’s the matter with you?—____D___ the heavy suitcase, my waist was hurt unexpectedly.A. Having carriedB. CarriedC. While carryingD. While I was carrying【解析】正确答案为D,考查非谓语动词的逻辑主语. 一般说来,非谓语动词的逻辑主语需要和主句主语一致,此题中,主句的主语是my waist,而非谓语动词的逻辑主语是I,所以不能用非谓语动词,只能用状语从句,所以选D.5. ____D____with enough instruments necessary for the experiment, these scientists are expecting to finish it aheadof time.A. To be suppliedB. to suppliedC. supplyingD. supplied【解析】正确答案为D,考查非谓语动词作状语. 这句话的主语是scientists,与非谓语动词supply是动宾关系,也就是被提供,因此排除了B和C,不定式作状语表示将来和目的,与题意不符,所以选D.英语冠词典型考题讲练1.

B. 因为collection (收藏品,收集物) 是可数名词,此处为单数,又不是特指,所以用不定冠词;books是名词复数表示种类,而非特指,所以不用冠词. 又如:a fine collection of paintings精美的绘画收藏品.2. B. word (话、话语) 是可数名词,without saying a word意为“没说一句话”;虽然silence (沉默)是不可数名词,但此处是特指前面提到的那种沉默,所以用the.3.A. 因为school, college, university, hospital, prison, church, table, bed名词等指其用途时,不用冠词. leave college意为“大学毕业”. 又因为表示职业或身份的单数名词前通常要用不定冠词,所以选A.4. C. price前加定冠词表特指. 句意为“如果你买10个以上,他们会从那个价钱中减掉20便士”.5.B. 因为division后有介词短语between…and…的限制,这是特指的,所以要用the. 又因为concern作“所关切的事”解是可数名词,所以前面要用冠词.6. D. 因为house和cottage都是可数名词,且都不是特指,所以都用不定冠词. 句意是“威尔逊一家住在大海附近的一栋A形房子里,那是一座17世纪建的别墅”.7. A. 从next time可知,对方这次住了旅馆,第一空的hotel就是特指这个旅馆,所以用the;第二空的单数可数名词bed不是特指的,所以用不定冠词. 句意是:你下次来这里度假,就不要到这旅馆来住了,我在我的公寓里帮你弄张床.8. D. 虽然understanding是不可数名词,但作“了解、理解”解时,却常常要加不定冠词(尤其是当其前有形容词修饰时),排除B和 C. 又因为life作“生活、人生”解,是不可数名词,不是特指,不用冠词. have a better understanding of life指“对生活有更深刻的理解”.9. B. 虽然通常说the world,但world有定语修饰时,表示“一个…的世界”时,要用不定冠词. 题中两个world 都有定语修饰,后者是前者的同位语,所以两个都用不定冠词. 句意是:这是一个奇妙的世界,一个什么事都有可能发生的世界.10.C. 因part后面有一定语从句修饰,是特指,用the;又因为“工业革命”是由普通名词构成的专有名词,所以前面也要用the.11. A. 因为discovery作“被发现的事物”讲是可数名词,前面用不定冠词,又如,make an important discovery scientific discovery (作出重大的科学发现). man作“人、人类”解,是既没有复数形式,也不能在前面加冠词的,understanding前又受名词所有格man’s修饰,也不能用冠词,所以第二空不用冠词.12. A. information 是不可数名词,前面不用冠词,因此排除B 和D;have a word with是固定短语,意为“和某人谈一下”. 句意为“我想请你帮我看一下旅馆的管理材料”. “好的,你可以和饭店经理谈,他会帮你的”.13. A. 此题考查不定冠词和不用冠词的情况. 抽象名词knowledge前加不定冠词a使其具体化,a knowledge of English意为“懂英语”;而international trade是泛指,意为“国际贸易”,前面不用冠词. 句意为“很多人认为懂英语是当今国际贸易所必需的”.14.D. 此题在特定语境中考查不定冠词的用法. 第一句句意为“你看见一支钢笔吗?”是泛指,用不定冠词. 第二空“是黑色的吗?”不是二次提及上文的钢笔,也是泛指,故也用不定冠词.15. C. (be) in use是固定词组,意为“在使用中”;第二空是序数词前要加定冠词,the thirteenth century 指第13世纪. 句意为“十三世纪马可波罗访问中国时,中国已用纸币”.16. B. animals 是名词复数表示泛指,不用冠词;kind是单数可数名词,of…kind“…种类的”. 根据句意“多数动物与另一类的动物没有关系,除非它们以其为食”. 可指应用a表示泛指.17. C. 句意为“从一万英尺高的飞机里跳出来是一次非常激动人心的经历”. airplane表泛指,以元音开头用an;experience当“经历”讲时是可数名词,因此表示“一次经历”要加不定冠词.18. B. fire泛指“火灾,失火”,不用冠词;red button 是特指,第二空用the. 句意为“那块牌子上写着:“万一失火,打碎这块玻璃,按那个红色按钮”.19. B. 第一空用the表示特指“今日的新闻”;第二空reports是复数名词表泛指,不加冠词. 句意为“在今天的新闻中有关于那个地区的大雪的报道”.英语基础语法常考题·附解析1. ─What are you reading, Jane?─Some books on ________ education, I’m now intereste d in ________ education of young people.A. an; theB. /; theC. the; anD. an;/2. —You were out when I dropped in at your house yesterday.—Oh, I________ for a friend from Beijing at the railway station.A. was waitingB. had waitedC. am waitingD. have waited3. —Little Jim has been eating sweets all day.—It’s no ________ he is not hungryA. matterB. doubtC. problemD. wonder4.

B. 第一个education 意为“教育;教育学”,为不可数名词,因此不用冠词;而第二个education 表示特指,意为“年轻人的教育”,因此用定冠词,故答案为B.2. A. 根据上句中的时间状语的提示可知谓语动词是指过去某时正在发生的事情,因此用过去进行时态,故答案为A.3. D. 上句“小吉姆整天在吃糖果”是“他不饿”的原因,因此答案为D. no wonder 意为“难怪,不足为怪. ”4. B. 情态动词must 表推测时只能用于肯定句. 在否定句中用can’t代替must. can’t 意为“不可能”;may not 意为“可能不”;be able to 表示经过努力或克服了困难之后做成了某事的能力,意为“能,会”. 句中的破折号起解释说明的作用. “我几分钟前在公司见过他”,因此“不可能在上海”,故答案为B.5. A. 强调句的基本结构由“It is / was +被强调部分+ that / who + 句子其余部分”组成,如果被强调的是人用that 或who;其他用that. 句意为:到了家我才发现我的钱包不见了.6. D. the number of 修饰可数名词复数作主语时,后面的谓语动词用单数形式;There be 必须与后面的主语在人称和数上保持一致. tickets 为复数名词,因此用were. 故答案为D.7.

C. 作结果状语时,不定式常表示没有预料到的情况或结果,即预料之外;而分词常表示一种自然而然的结果,即预料之中. 根据语境“发现门开着,有东西丢了”是他没想到的,因此可知应用不定式. 又因句子的主语he 与动词find是逻辑上的主谓关系,故用主动语态,因此答案为C().11. A. devote…to 为习惯用语,意为“把……献给;把……专用于”. 句意为“我们应当勤奋地而且忠诚地献身于我们的职责. ”12. A. break out 和last 都是不及物动词,都不能用于被动语态,因此答案为A. 句意为“抗日战争1937 年爆发,持续了八年. ”13. D. while 作并列连词,表示对比或相反的情况,意为“而、却”. 句意为“当飞机抵达时,一部分侦探等在主楼里面,而另一部分则等在停机坪上. ”14. B. as 和which 引导非限定性定语从句,都可以指整个句子,有时可以通用. 但as 引导的非限定性定语从句可以放在句首,也可以放在句中. which 只能放在句中. 句意为“周所周知,台湾是中国的一部分. ”15.

B. 根据句意,填空处应用将来时态(实为将来时态的省略式);另外注意,频度副词本来通常置于助动词之后,但是若省略主要动词,即当频度副词和助动词置于句末时,应将频度副词置于助动词之前.7. D. and so won a place…可视为and so he won a place…之省略.8. C. want 表示“想要”时,其后通常接不定式,又由于主语与see 之间含有被动关系,故用被动式.9. A. in case 在此表示“以防万一”.10. D. 由句意和常识推知.11. A. we can’t get there by tomorrow 为客观事实,故宜用陈述语气.12.

ItB. AsC. ThatD. What【易错】容易误选A,认为此处应填一个形式主语.【分析】最佳答案是B. as 引导的是一个非限制性定语从句. 比较下面一题:_______ is known to everybody that the moon travels round the earth once every month.A. ItB. AsC. ThatD. What此题答案选A,it 为形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that 从句.再比较下面一组题,其中第(1)题选B,第(2)题选D:(1) ______ is mentioned above, the number of the students in senior school is increasing.A. WhichB. AsC. ThatD. It(2) ______ is mentioned above that the number of the students in senior school is increasing.A. WhichB. AsC. ThatD. It■ David is such a good boy _______ all the teachers like.A. thatB. whoC. asD. whom【易错】此题容易误选A,许多同学一看到题干中的such,再联系到选项中的that,便认为这是考查such … that …句式. 况且,这样理解意思也还通顺.【分析】最佳答案为C,不是A,因为在such … that … (如此……以至……)结构中,that 引导的是结果状语从句,并且that 在从句中不充当句子成分,若在上句填入such … that …,句末的动词like 缺宾语. 选C的理由如下:as 用作关系代词,用以引导定语从句,修饰其前的名词boy,同时as 在定语从句中用作动词like 的宾语,句意为“所有老师都喜欢的一位好男孩”. 有的同学可能还会问,假若选A,能否将其后的that 视为引导定语从句的关系代词呢?不能,因为当先行词受到such 的修饰时,其后的定语从句应用关系代词as 来引导,而不用that. 比较下面一题,答案为A,因为like 后有自己的宾语him:David is such a good boy _______ all the teachers like him.A. thatB. whoC. asD. whom请再做以下试题(答案选D):It was not such a good dinner _______ she had promised us.A. likeB. thatC. whichD. as■ The buses, most of _______ were already full, were surrounded by an angry crowd.A. thatB. itC. themD. which【易错】容易误选C,用them 代指the buses.【分析】最佳答案是D. most of which were already full 为非限制性定语从句,修饰the buses. 类似地,以下各题也选D:(1) His house, for _______ he paid $10, 000, is now worth $50, 000.A. thatB. itC. themD.

great success in their own field.A. whomB. themC. whichD. who【易错】容易误选B,用them 代指students.【分析】最佳答案是A,many of whom gained great success in their own field 为非限制性定语从句. 假若在many of… 的前面加上连词and,则选答案B.

who【易错】容易误选A,认为这是非限制性定语从句.【分析】最佳答案是B,这不是非限制性定语从句,而是一个独立主格结构,因为空格后的动词invited 并不是一个完整的谓语,而是一个过去分词. 当然,假若在invited 前加上助动词were,则是一个非限制性定语从句,答案便应选A. 比较:(1) They put forward a lot of plans at the meeting, none of _______ carried out in their work.A. whichB. themC. whatD. that答案选B,none of them carried out in their work 是独立主格结构,其中的carried out 为过去分词.(2) They put forward a lot of plans at the meeting, none of _______ were carried out in their work.A. whichB. themC. whatD. that答案选A,none of them were carried out in their work 是非限制性定语从句,注意与上例比较句中多了一个助动词were.(3) They put forward a lot of plans at the meeting, but none of _______ were carried out in their work.A. whichB. themC. whatD. that答案选B,由于两句之间增加了一个并列连词but,使得该句成了一个并列句.■ On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, _______ parents seated together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that【易错】容易误选B,认为这是非限制性定语从句.【分析】最佳答案是A. 与上面一题相似,their parents seated together joking 不是非限制性定语从句,而是一个独立主格结构,因为空格后的动词seated 不是谓语,而是一个过去分词,因为seat 作动词用时,是及物动词. 比较以下相似题:(1) On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, _______ parents were seated together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that选B. whose parents were seated together joking 为非限制性定语从句,因为其后有完整的谓语were seated.(2) On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, and _______ parents were seated together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that选A. 因为句中有并列连词and,整个句子为并列句.(3) On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, _______ parents sitting together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that选A. their parents sitting together joking 为独立主格结构.(4) On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, _______ parents sat together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that选B. whose parents sat together joking 为非限制性定语从句,因为句中有完整的谓语sat.(5) On Sundays there were a lot of children playing in the park, _______ parents were sitting together joking.A. theirB. whoseC. whichD. that选B. whose parents were sitting together joking 为非限制性定语从句,因为句中有完整的谓语were sitting.■ If the man is only interested in your looks, _____ just shows how shallow he is.A. asB. whichC. whatD. that【易错】容易误选A或B,误这是非限制性定语从句.【分析】正确答案为D,注意逗号前是一个条件状语从句,逗号后是该状语从句的主句,that 在此代表前文所述的情况,用作主句的主语. 类似地,下面几道题也选that,而不选which:(1) If you promise to go with us, _____ will be OK.A. asB. whichC. and itD. that(2) If you want a double room, _____ will cost another £15.A. asB. whichC. whatD. that(3) Whether you go or not, _______ is quite all right with me.A. thatB. whichC. and itD. so(4) When I say two

where【易错】容易误选B,机械地认为时间名词后必须用关系副词when,地点名词后用关系副词where.【分析】正确答案为A. 在时间名词和地点名词后是否用关系副词要看它在定语从句中充当什么句子成分. 一般说来,若用作主语或宾语,用关系代词;若用作状语,则用关系副词. 上面一题中的动词spent 缺宾语,故应用关系代词which或that. 比较下面一题,由于空格后的句子不缺少主语或宾语,所以选关系副词when:She says that she’ll never forget the time ________ she works as a secretary in our company.A. whichB. whenC. howD. where请再做一组试题(答案均选A):(1) Our company will move to

C. 用现在完成时表示影响,即指现在已经作出决定.2. B. 用现在完成时表示影响或结果,即现在笔不见了,是由于某人已经把它拿走了的结果.3. D. 用现在进行时表示现在正在进行的动作.4. A. 从下文的语境看,既然现在叫对方重复一遍,说明“没听清对方的最后一点”应发生在过去(即说此话之前).5. C. 这时用一般过去时表示过去曾经是老师,但现在不是了.6. B. before 用作副词时不与具体时间连用,泛指“以前”,通常与一般过去时或现在完成时连用.7. A. 由no是对前句的否定可知现在不在部队服役,是以前“服过役”,故用一般过去时.8. A. have been to…去过某地(已回来),have gone to…到某地去了(没回来);又因为问的是Tom回来之前到去过某地,故用过去完成时态.9. D. 从“我们只谈了几句话”可知,当我们去拜访时,Professor Smith“正要”离开了,D是过去进行时表示过去将来意义.10. C. 上句“我本不该对你那么无礼”是对过去情况的自责,答语“你当时的确很生气”,用一般过去时,did 在lose 前表示强调.11. D. 问句是对过去情况的猜测,所以答句用一般过去时. I didn’t是I didn’t meet him the other day 的省略.12. B. 因为在时间状语从句中要用一般现在时代替一般将来时. 若强调从句动作发生在主句动作之前时,用现在完成时代替将来完成时,本题属后一种情况.13. B. 因为these years 是包括现在在内的,故用现在完成时.14. D. 由于见朋友发生在过去(即昨天),而很久没有见到朋友自然是昨天的见面之前,即属于过去的过去,故用过去完成时.15. C. 句子的前半句说上午打电话时没有人接电话,而后半句问对方当时在什么地方. 显然,句子前后两部分的时间应一致,即用一般过去时.16. A. 从第一句话She ought to stop working 可知“他仍然在学习”,故后面用现在完成进行时态.17. D. 受前一句left的影响,易误选B. 题干中的since说明此处应用现在完成时态. 从问句中也可看出来,此处强调动作对现在的影响,故要用现在完成时的被动式.18. B. 说话之前“忘了”,故用一般过去时态;第二空应用一般过去时的被动语态形式.19. C. 指将来某时或某段时间正发生的事用将来进行时.20. D. 一般将来时表示将要发生的动作,而将来完成时表示将来某个时间之前已经发生或完成的动作. 根据语境可知是强调将来的结果,应用将来完成时.21. C. 意思是:刚才我想下公共汽车时,(我才发现)靠近我坐的那个人一直坐在我的外衣上. 表示从过去某一时刻开始一直延续到另一过去时间仍在进行的动作或状态用过去完成进行时.。
