答案与解析
C
no+比较级+than"和......一样不......"not+比较级表示"不如......"
A
四个副词的意思分别是skillfully巧妙地, 技术好地;commonly 一般,普通,通常;willingly自动地,欣然地;nervously 焦急地。上文问音乐晚会怎么样?回答是非常好,自然Ales和Andy是娴熟地(skillfully)表演并获得第一名。
B
no+比较级+than…意为“与……一样不……”,表示否定。not+比较级+than…意为“与……不相上下”,表示肯定。
C
slowly 的比较级是在其前加more, 另外比较级还可以用a bit, a little, a lot, even, far, much等修饰。
B
be particular about表示“对……很挑剔”。
A
still仍,还;even甚至; also也;ever曾经。题意是“尽管在车祸中伤得很重,但司机仍能够打电话。
D
fresh常作表语,意为又有活力,又精神饱满
A
A项simply表示“仅仅,只不过”;B项partly表示“部分地”;C项seriously表示“严肃地,严重地”;D项equally表示“平等地,相等地”。根据句意:经营一家公司不仅仅就是雇人的事情—他们还需要进行培训。故选A。
A
考查比较级和最高级,很容易误选BC。根据句子意思可以看出,孩子非常喜欢白天的旅行,而且他们最喜欢的就是骑马了。(从句子中可以看出白天的旅行中经历了很多事情,骑马只是其中之一,所以选用最高级别most)
C
A项meanwhile,与此同时,表示承接;B however表示转折,D yet,用于否定句,表示仍然。
D
句意为:他才成为一名作家我一点也不奇怪。正当他是孩子的时候,就具有丰富的想象力。Clear表示“清楚的,明确的,澄清的”;cautious 表示“十分小心的,谨慎的”;funny 表示“滑稽的,有趣的”;vivid 表示“生动的,栩栩如生的,鲜艳的”。根据句意应选D。
D
由题干中的but可知,后半句表否定意义,故选D项。the least+形容词(副词)+原形,表示“最不……”。
C
约翰非常的可靠,如果他许诺做某事他一定会做的,所以reliable为答案。
D
badly意为“极为”,他极需赢。
C
A:热情的;B:聪明的;C精力充沛的;D敏感的。
B
在语境中考查副词的用法。根据前面:I’m certain…看出为什么他那么肯定呢?是因为“无论如何他欠债都不是秘密了”。答案C把前因后果弄反了。
D
考查几个形容词的比较级和最高级。一般情况下,获奖后会很激动而无法入睡,那么就应该是feels the least desire to go to bed.。
A
environmentally friendly有利于环境的,环保的
C
考查as…as结构的用法。在英语中,要修饰形容词的比较级,其修饰词应该放在前面,所以B、D项是错误的,另外not也应该放在half前。前一个as为副词,而后一个as为连词。
C
enough修饰形容词,副词需要后置,副词easily修饰动词made. 要克服思维定势,不要看成了“make+宾语+形容词+不定式”的结构了,此处的to为介词,make one’s way to 前往。 区别:The professor spoke slowly to make his words easy enough to understand.
B
collection 常有习惯用法a collection of +名词复数;而根据后面的than又可知用larger.故答案为B。
B
can never be too…with(sth)意思是“对于(某事)怎么…也绝不过分”。
D
be sensitive to对什么敏感。Jerry is even more sensitive to emotional and relationship problems. more sensitive to与more easily troubled by 并列。
B
短语fall far behind意思为“远远的落后于”。
A
Be accessible to 为……能够接近; be relative to 和……有关系; be acceptable to 为……所接受 ; be sensitive to 对……敏感, 易接受。
D
根据语境,后句为前句的补充,所以应选Besides表达“此外”的意思,而still前后从句应一致,是“仍旧是,依旧是”的意思,所以正确答案为D。
C
normal正常的( normal temperature, return to normal); usual通常的(usual time, usual restaurant); regular定时/期的,有规律的(regular breathing; a regular bus service ); common一般的,常见的(common sense, common names)。
B
too, either“也”不符题意;yet作副词“还,仍然”用于陈述句,位于句中或句末,不用逗号隔开,作为“已经”位于疑问句句末,不用逗号隔开,做连词“然而”往往位于句首,学生易于因汉语意思而选此答案;答案B(though),意思是“然而,但是”位于句末,用逗号隔开。所以答案应是B.
B
根据句中关键词than判断出应选earlier.
A.
这里起转折作用,while表示”但是”,可接句子.”前两个免费,但第三个要收费30元”
A
more /another表“又、再”的用法辨析。注意词序:基数词+more+名词 /another+基数词+名词。故选择A项。
C
exactly:准确地;fortunately:幸运地;surprisingly:惊讶地,出乎意料地;hardly:几乎不。题干意思是:似乎保护环境是出乎意料的简单可行,小小的行动能带来很大的不同。选C。
A
考查修饰不可数名词的比较级的掌握情况,用不定代词选项进行干扰。注意本段有形容词比较级than 的明显特征,答案为A。易误选B,认为a pound是可数名词。此处less than是固定搭配,表示“少于,小于”。
C
句意为:我绝不会成为一名教师。因为我不是一个很有耐心的人。seldom表示“很少”;ever表示“永远”用在肯定句中;never表示“绝不,从来没有”;always 表示“总是”。
A.
water 和electricity都是不可数名词,其比较级为less;修饰克数名词的比较级用fewer;”旧的,以前的”应用older,指人用elder.意为“年长的”。
C
这几个副词按语气的轻重可大致描述为:(not) → fairly → quite → rather / pretty → very。在这些词中,只有 rather 可以与比较级以及副词 too (太)连用。而rarely则表示“很少,难得”。故选C.
C
本句为复合句,it是形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式短语to spend … 。rather than是固定短语,意为“与其说……,不如说……”。其句意为:与其把钱花在让人康复上,倒不如将钱花在通过提升健康的生活来预防疾病。
D
在护士们的精心照料下,这个男孩正在逐渐地从心脏手术中恢复健康。gradually符合语境。
A
考查形容词比较级和最高级的运用,没有运用常见的比较结构 "than”,而是让学生从语意中体会,增加了考查难度。句中for为介词,后面为名词和动名词。The worse (weather) 中的weather 省略。
B
根据句意知“在我看来,伦敦的…从价格上看不如东京的贵,但是,从通上看,东京比伦敦更…”,本句后面实际上是省略了than Tokyo,所以二者进行比较,只能选择答案B。在表示否定的同级比较时,常用本句前面出现“not so/as …as”结构,意为“前者不如后者”。
D
根据题意,在那些时候,我们主要的任务是给那些被暴风雪阻挡的人们提供食物和医疗救助,primary符合题意,normal表示正常的, constant表示恒定的 permanent表示永久的。
