參考答案及解析
1.[A]??疾樵~的用法。except和besides是兩個容易混淆的詞。前者指把一部分人、物排除出去的 “除…外”,except前后部分是一種對立關系;后者指在同一范圍內(nèi)對一部分人、物進行補充的“除…外”, besides前后部分是一種補充關系。而except for是介詞,其后應跟名詞性詞組,不能跟句子;如果跟從句,則 應用except(that/when/what etc.)。此外,except不能與but連用。
2.[C]??疾槠硎咕?。很明顯這里是要求對方做某事,是一個祈使句,故應用動詞原形,而不能用非謂
語形式,故本題答案為[C]。
3.[D]。考查動詞辨義。get from搭配不對,因為get是及物動詞,應跟賓語;follow指“跟隨,遵守”,其 后多跟規(guī)則、規(guī)律等;receive指“收到”;ask for指“請求”。與permission(允許,批準)連用的動詞是[D]。
4.[D]??疾榇~用法。很明顯,hate后面缺少一個賓語,而when引導的是一個從句。由句意來看,
應當是指不喜歡“辦公室里沒電腦”的這種時候或者情況。只有it可指代there’S no computer in the office這 個句子(所描述的情況),when引導的是it的一個定語從句,故應選[D]。其余三項都沒有這一用法。
5.[B]。考查固定搭配。as long as只要(表條件);as far as就…而言,據(jù)…所…(引出一種觀點或者情況);just as正如,就像(引出一種解釋);even if即便,就算(表讓步)。由句意不難看出,前后分句沒有條件、 讓步關系,也不是進行解釋,而是引出自己的觀點,故選[B]。
6.[A]。考查動詞辨義。report報告,報道;print印刷,打印;announce宣布,公布;publish出版。由于 主語是newspaper(報紙),故選[A]。
7.[B]??疾楦痹~用法。四個選項中,只有quite可以用來修飾impossible一詞。注意,very等不能用
于修飾本身所表達的程度已經(jīng)很深的一些形容詞或副詞。
8.[A]??疾檠a語用法。worried用于指人,指“擔心的”;worrying用于指物,指“令人擔心的”。本題中get相當于系動詞,其后可跟形容詞或者不定式,但動詞worry用作不及物動詞時一般只用于三種情況: 用固定搭配(如worry about/over)、跟從句或者用于don’t worry,所以本題不能用不定式。
9.[A]??疾榫湫汀S烧Z法知識可知,對于否定的反意問句來說,反意部分應用肯定形式。本題的特殊之處在于前面是一個由“主語+think+從句”構成的句子,這種句子反意部分的助動詞或者情態(tài)動詞應當 與從句謂語部分一致,故應選will he。
10.[B]??疾楣潭ù钆浔媪x。give in屈服;give up放棄;give away丟棄,泄露;give off發(fā)出??忌菀谆煜氖荹A]、[B]兩項。但give in強調(diào)的是在困難、壓力等之下而不再做某事,而give up則強調(diào)在長時 間之后因困難等而不再做某事。對于本題來說,由于后面有ten times(10次),強調(diào)的是時間,故選[B]。
11.[D]??疾楸磉_。結合常識不難看出填入句應當表示對他人的感謝,因此應選含有此義的[D]項。其余三項中,[A]項用于表揚,[B]項用于回答別人的感謝,[C]項則用于鼓勵。
12.[C]。考查搭配。SO as to(do)是固定搭配,指“為了”,引出目的。當它變?yōu)榉穸〞r,否定詞應當放在不定式前,構成SO as not to(do)結構,而不能將否定詞放在其他位置。
13.[A]??疾楣潭ù钆浜途湟膺壿?。由于空格前的keep doing sth.強調(diào)的是一直不停地做某事,所以 空格處應填入與之在意義邏輯上相呼應的固定搭配。all the time指“始終,一直”,符合要求。其余三項中, at once指“立刻,馬上”;after a while指“過了不久,過了一會兒”;for a moment指“一會兒,片刻”。
14.[B]??疾閯釉~的非謂語形式。由句子結構可知,填入的動詞作賓語補足語,而由句意來看,約翰是讓自己被他人理解,故賓語補足語部分要用動詞的過去分詞,即[B]是正確答案。注意,本題不是“make sb. do sth.”(讓某人做某事)這一結構,因為本題中d0這一動作并非由sb.發(fā)出,故[A]項不對;[C]項是現(xiàn)在分詞,帶有主動意義;[D]項是過去分詞的進行時形式,強調(diào)的是動作正在進行,無疑也不合本題邏輯。
15.[B]??疾楣谠~用法。首先,time在指“時間”時為不可數(shù)名詞,不用冠詞或者只用定冠詞,而feeling則是可數(shù)名詞;其次,spend time為一個常用搭配,指“花時間(做某事)”,其后一般跟in(doing)sth.或with sb.。結合這兩點即可知,本題答案為[B]。
