答案解析
Ⅰ. 1.【解析】选D。考查形容词辨析。句意: 妈妈脸上吃惊的表情告诉我们她对这个消息感到吃惊。shocked“吃惊的”; shocking“令人吃惊的”。
2.【解析】选D。考查形容词辨析。句意: 简一直以来如此忙于家务, 以至于她没时间参加社会活动。be occupied in sth. “忙于某事”; confused“迷惑的”; worried“担心的”; devoted“忠诚的”, 后一般接介词to。
3.【解析】选A。句意: 令我惊讶的是, 关于这个单词, 老师讲的和词典上说的竟然有如此多的差别。to one’s astonishment“令某人吃惊的是”, 故A项符合句意。B、C、D三项均不合句意。
4.【解析】选B。考查词语辨析。句意: 尽管他很富有, 他仍很低调。despite为介词, 相当于in spite of, 意为“尽管”。although为连词, 后面需接句子; except, besides“除了……之外”, 不符合句意。
5.【解析】选C。考查虚拟语气。首句句意: 要不是因为你及时的警告, 我们就会陷入麻烦了。由句意可知本句是对过去动作的虚拟, 故主句用would/could/ might have done。
6.【解析】选A。根据句意, 此处应指最后放弃了, 故选A项。B项指“不幸地”; C项指“慷慨地”; D项指“有意地”。
7.【解析】选A。考查短语辨析。句意: 怀特先生只通过观看园艺师工作就学会了一些种植植物的知识。pick up“学会; 捡起, 拾起”, 符合句意。set up“建立”; work out“解决”; turn out“结果是”。
8.【解析】选C。考查动词辨析。句意: 在聚会上我一个人也不认识, 但女主人通过把我介绍给一些人来帮我解围。rescue sb. from(doing)sth. 使某人免去了……。help sb. out使某人解围。
9.【解析】选B。句意: 这辆坏的自行车被发现丢弃在河边。find+宾语+宾语补足语, 其中宾语the broken bike与补足语abandon之间为被动关系, 故用过去分词形式。本题是“find+宾语+宾语补足语”的被动语态, 故abandoned作的是主语补足语。
【变式备选】
The girl had to her journey because of her mother’s illness.
A. abandonB. leave
C. desert
D. quit
【解析】选A。考查动词辨析。句意: 由于母亲生病, 这个女孩不得不放弃旅行。abandon指因外界压力或影响完全或永久地舍弃自己所感兴趣的事物或人; leave是一般用语, 着重强调“离开, 遗留下”的意思; desert指某人或某物在困难中或困境中被人背弃; quit指突然出其不意地放弃, 往往也含有在感情上舍弃的意味。
10.【解析】选D。考查短语辨析。句意: 没有预先考虑好, 他一时冲动说了那些话。think out“把……考虑好”, 符合句意。think up“想出”; think of“想到, 想起”; think aloud“自言自语”, 均不符合句意。
11.【解析】选A。句意: 一些学生注定会在他们的考试中失败。sb. be condemned to do sth. “某人注定要做某事”。
12.【解析】选B。句意: 1939年9月, 在德军入侵波兰之后, 英国对德宣战。A项“在与……交战”; B项“对……宣战”; C项“开战”; D项“赢得战争”。若选C项, 需要在其后加介词with或against。
13.【解析】选B。句意: 他被告知至少要过三个月的时间他才能恢复健康去上班。it will be +时间段+ before. . . 过一段时间才会……。
14.【解析】选C。考查动词辨析。句意: 我敢断定, 他们忽略了暗含的巨大危险。overlook意为“忽视”, 符合句意。skim“浏览, 略读”; observe“观察”; glance“匆匆一看”, 后面多用介词at或over。
15.【解析】选C。考查虚拟语气的用法。句意: 如果不是有成为幸运顾客的诱惑, 我不会买这么多我不需要的东西。从主句的谓语动词would not have bought来看, 这是与过去相反的假设, 故从句谓语要用had+过去分词形式。另外, 当条件句中含有had, were, should时, 可把if省略, 而把这些词提到句首。故选C。
【知识拓展】
if虚拟条件句的三种形式
条件从句的
谓语动词 主句的谓语动词

事实相反 动词的一般过去式
(be动词一般
用were) would/could/

Ⅱ.
本文是一篇记叙文。两个珠宝商人来到一个旅馆, 准备住下。一个商人为了炫耀自己的珍珠, 故意把一颗珍珠掉在地上, 当另一个商人帮他捡起来时, 他夸耀自己还有其他更大的珍珠。而这一切都被另外一个人看见了。这个人给他们讲了一个自己的故事, 向他们说明了有的时候财富并不是最重要的。
1.【解析】选B。考查固定短语辨析。此处表示当两个商人几乎同时来到这个旅馆的时候, 他们都意识到了对方的存在。be afraid of“害怕”; be proud of“以……而自豪”, 均与语境不符。
2.【解析】选D。考查生活常识。根据第一句话中的“desert”可知, 他们使用的交通工具应是“骆驼”, 而不是驴子、大象或马。
3.【解析】选C。考查语境逻辑。此处表示其中的一个商人禁不住诱惑。effort“努力”; pressure“压力”; demand“要求”, 语气比较坚决, 与题意不符。
4.【解析】选A。考查语境中动词的辨析。根据句意可知, 此处表示当这个珍珠滚落在另一个商人脚下的时候, 另一个商人把珍珠拾了起来, 然后还给对方, 看上去很不自然。throw“扔”; present“授予”; contribute“贡献”, 均与语境不符。
5.【解析】选B。考查生活常识。众所周知, 珍珠一般是亮的、富有光泽的, 所以选B。而rough表示“粗糙的”, 指表面不平滑或者不规则; small表示“小的”; round表示“圆的”, 均与语境不符。
6.【解析】选D。考查语境中形容词的辨析。这里是指这个商人听了赞美自己的珍珠的话后, 表示他很感谢对方的赞扬, 认为对方有礼貌。而generous表示“慷慨的”; foolish表示“愚蠢的”; smart表示“聪明的, 有智力的”, 均与语境不符。
7.【解析】选C。考查语境中形容词的辨析。此处表示这个商人自我炫耀, 告诉对方这仅仅是他拥有的珍珠里面一个比较小的。ugly“丑陋的”; heavy“沉重的”; large“大的”, 均与他的炫耀相矛盾。
8.【解析】选A。考查语境中动词的辨析。此处表示有一个人看见了刚才的全过程。perform“做”; direct“指导”; enjoy“享受”, 均与语境不符。
9.【解析】选B。考查上下文暗示。根据后面的“When they began their meal”可知此处是指邀请他们一起吃饭, 而不是邀请他们一起来闲聊、工作或坐下。
10.【解析】选D。考查上下文暗示。根据最后一段的“all it contained was pearls”可知这个人告诉这两个商人, 他原来也是一个珠宝商。bargainer“交易者”; miner“矿工”; traveler“旅游者”, 均与语境不符。
11.【解析】选C。考查语境中动词的辨析。从前面的“storm”可知大雨不断地击打着他和他的朋友们。pull表示“拉”; show表示“带领”; lead表示“领路”, 均与语境不符。
12.【解析】选A。考查语境化选词。lose one’s way“迷路”。根据上文内容及第五段内容可知, 他迷路了。
13.【解析】选B。考查上下文逻辑。根据下文可知他无法摆脱困境, 所以他很恐惧。embarrassed“尴尬的”; pleased“高兴的”; contented“满意的”, 均与语境不符。
14.【解析】选D。考查上下文逻辑。结合后面的“with no sense of where I was or which 15 to walk in. ”可知他迷失方向了, 因此“他在转圈地走”符合语境。in doubt“不确定”; in line“成一直线”, 均与语境不符。
15.【解析】选C。考查上下文逻辑。他迷路了, 所以他在沙漠里不知道该往哪个方向走, 因此选C。hotel“旅馆”; desert“沙漠”; road“道路”, 均与语境不符。
16.【解析】选A。考查上下文暗示。根据最后一段的“find something to eat”可知, 此处表示他很饥饿。thirst“(口)渴”; sleepiness“昏昏欲睡”; tiredness“疲倦”, 均与上下文的语境不符。
17.【解析】选B。考查语境中副词的辨析。他把骆驼上的货物都卸下来, 迫不及待地寻找食物, 因此使用anxiously。而secretly“秘密地”; patiently“耐心地”; slowly“慢慢地”, 均体现不出他寻求食物的迫切性。
18.【解析】选D。考查语境中名词的辨析。根据后面的“when I came upon a small bag”可知, 当他发现一个小袋子的时候, 他很兴奋, 以为里面会有食物。curiosity“好奇心”; disappointment“失望”; puzzlement“困惑”, 均与语境不符。
19.【解析】选C。考查语境逻辑。此处是指他原先没有注意这个袋子的存在, 故选C。attempt“企图”; plan“计划”; chance“机会”, 均与语境不符。
20.【解析】选A。考查上下文逻辑。由于渴望食物, 所以他打开袋子的时候, 手发抖, 衬托出他期望里面有食物的心情, 故选A。mean to do“打算做……”; seek to do“设法做……”; pretend to do“假装做……”, 均与语境不符。

Ⅳ.【参考范文】
Dear Tom,
I’m in New York! It’s really a pity that I didn’t find you at the railway station. You may have left when my train arrived, a quarter behind the schedule.
Luckily, on the train I came across Mr. Taylor and his wife, who are Chinese and have been living in the US for several years. Seeing that there was no one to meet me at the station, they offered to drive me to your house.
As you happen to be out, I’ve decided to accept the Taylors’ offer to stay at their house for the night. I’ve decided to put up here for the night. They are very friendly to me, so don’t worry about me. I’ll be all right. It cannot be better if you can call me at my phone number 64611128 this evening.
Looking forward to meeting you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
