【答案及简析】 C。 介词短语提前表示强调;belong to属于。
2.【解析】D考查情态动词的用法。might as well意为“不妨”。句意:--我的儿子面试后没被公司接受。--既然他没有准备好,他就不该去试。
3.解析: 考查定语从句。句意为:我认为会受到严厉惩罚的那位官员反而加薪了。分析句子结构可知“________I thought would be seriously punished”为定语从句,先行词为The official,在从句中作主语,故用who。
答案: CB考查副词短语的用法。根据句意可知用more or less,“她的病情多少有所好转,但仍需一段时间之后才能回到学校。”sooner or later迟早;more or less或多或少;now and then
时而; once in a while偶尔。
答案:A 考查动词的时态。句意为:J. K. Rowling在当地的一家咖啡馆里开始写《哈利·波特》的原因是那时她无钱支付家中的供暖费用。根据“because she could not afford to heat her home”可知,start这个动作发生在过去,所以应用一般过去时。故答案选A。
【答案及简析】 C。 在前面句子中有两个不同的动词或者两件不同的事,某人也是这样的话,就得用上这个句型。
7.【考点】考察时态
【答案】C
【解析】句意:—你对即将在南京举行的青奥会了解多少?—很好,媒体以多种形式对青奥会举行了报道。根据本句中的well,可知后者对青奥会很了解。这主要是因为媒体多种形式的报道,本句使用现在完成时体现出过去所发生的事情对现在的影响。故C正确。
【试题延伸】动词时态是高考的热点,英语的时态多,又很复杂,现在的高考不是纯粹考时态的问题,而是把它们放在一定的语言环境里,让考生根据特定的环境来确定答案。
答案:B 考查定语从句。句意为:在这起事故中,有11人死亡,他们的身份还没有弄清楚。the identities和eleven people逻辑上构成所属关系,故用介词of+whom引导定语从句,修饰先行词eleven people,故答案选B。本句如果是:whose identities haven't been available,也是正确的。
B考查动词词义辨析及语境。句意:1000美元足够去迪斯尼的旅行费用。Cover够。。。用;afford
承担得起; charge收取。。。的费用;pay付钱。根据句意选B。
解析: 考查动词短语意义。句意为:这个工人一个月挣的钱很少,因此不得不靠方便面度日。 exist on靠……生存;exist in存在于……中;lie in在于……;位于……;lie on与……接壤。
答案: A解析: 考查交际用语。句意为:——对不起,我原以为这是个停车场。——抱歉,这不是借口。这是罚款单。That’s all right好吧;I don’t believe you我不相信你的话;How dare you say so你怎么敢这么说;Sorry,that is no excuse抱歉,这不是借口。根据语境可知,D项正确。
答案: D答案:A 代词用法。the rest可指代前面的不可数名词work, 而其它三项均不可指代不可数名词。
——站在那边的那个老人是干什么的? ——他是新来的工程师。
【答案及简析】 B。 根据问句可知询问人的职业。
【考点】考察动词词义辨析以及上下文理解
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的动词词义辨析。A滑倒;溜…;B滑雪,滑冰;C发信号;用动作示意;D沉没;下沉;句意:看见一大群人朝他跑了过来,他开始朝山下跑去,但是滑倒了,然后就在融化的雪里手和膝盖着地滚了下去。根据后面半句中的went down on his hands and knees in the melting snow可知他是从山上滚了下去,也就是说他要先滑倒在地。故A正确。
【答案及简析】 D。 此句为as…as…结构。
C考查冠词的用法。第一空泛指“一个叫怀特的先生”;第二空Mr. White为专有名词,不用冠词。
解析: 主要考查动词不定式的时态与语态。从句意看,整个动作发生在将来,to play作a role的定语,其间存在着逻辑上的动宾关系,又与句中的each of us存在着逻辑上的主谓关系,故动词不定式用主动形式表示被动意义。动词不定式to play意指将来的动作;to have played意指已经完成的动作;to be playing则强调动词不定式动作正在进行。
答案: B答案:C 考查时态和语态。此处应该用主动语态表被动,表示物的特征。
答案:C 考查定语从句。句意为:在南非,黑人父母都希望他们的孩子能够接受英语教育。分析句意及句子结构可知,本句为定语从句,先行词为the language。定语从句主谓宾成分完整,先行词在从句中作状语。be educated in“在……方面被教育”,为固定搭配,所以用in which来引导定语从句,相当于black parents wish their children to be educated in the language。故答案选C。
