一、单句填空
1.surveyed 句意:被调查的那些人中将近一半说他们支持总统的决定。考查非谓语动词。“被调查的”用surveyed作定语,相当于定语从句who were surveyed。
2.approaches 句意:袁隆平已找到水稻高产的好办法。考查名词复数。根据后面的谓语动词have可知,approach(方法)应该用复数。
3.were rushed 句意:五位工人在矿难中死里逃生,被匆忙送进医院后,医生和护士马上着手抢救他们的生命。考查动词时态与语态。the injured与rush之间为被动关系且为一般过去时。
4.since 句意:你知道自从我们上一次看电影到现在已经多久了吗?考查“It be+时间段+since...”句型,意为“自从……以来已有多长时间了”。
5.fortunate 句意:我是Cirque du Soleil迷,并且我很幸运地看了他们很多精彩的演出。考查形容词。fortunate “幸运的”为fortune的形容词形式。
6.has increased 句意:近30年来,参加健身项目的人数急剧增加。由时间状语during the last three decades可知此处应该用现在完成时,且句子的主语被the number of修饰,谓语动词应该用单数。
7.have slept 句意:我过去经常外出野营,因此这不是我第一次睡在帐篷里。考查动词时态。此处考查固定句式:It is the first time+从句,从句的谓语动词应该用现在完成时。
8.to be settled 句意:——你为什么看上去这么伤心呢?——还有很多问题没有解决。根据语境可知问题还没有解决,应该用remain to be done的结构。
9.through 句意:正是那份爱和那份责任才使得他在经历了那么多困难后又活了下来。考查动词短语。go through经历,经受。
10.approaching 句意:随着春天的临近,很多冷血动物开始出来寻找食物了。考查with+宾语+宾补。spring与非谓语动词之间为主动关系,所以应该用v.-ing形式作宾补。
二、语法填空
[语篇解读] 本文是一个顾客与接待员之间的电话对话,交谈预订宾馆房间的问题。
1.interested 考查形容词。固定短语be interested in 对……感兴趣。
2.totally 考查副词。此处用副词修饰动词booked。
3.left 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处用left作后置定语,修饰vacancies。误解分析:注意该空不能用to leave,因为不定式表示将来的意义,而过去分词表示完成和被动,且根据下文可知,此处表示有剩余的空房,故应用过去分词。
4.reservation 考查名词。make a reservation 预订。
5.with 考查介词的用法。此处with意为“具有”。句意:你们有内有室两张双人床的房间吗?
6.dollars 考查名词的复数。数字129后加名词复数。
7.reasonable 考查形容词。该句为主系表结构。reasonable 意为“合情合理的”。
8.the 考查冠词的用法。“the +可数名词的单数”表示特指,指说话双方都知道的事物,此处指的是具有两张双人床的房间。误解分析:“a +可数名词的单数”表示泛指某一人或事物,即不确定的人或事物。而此处表示特指,故a不适合。
9.your/the 考查限定词。根据上文的“You can cancel up...”可知,此处指的是“退还你的订金”,故用your或the。
10.but 考查并列连词。根据上下文的内容可知,设空处前后为转折关系,故用but。
三、完形填空
[语篇解读] 本文为记叙文,题材为人物传记。本文介绍了19世纪中期到20世纪初加拿大一位伟大的女医生的奋斗历程。在她生活的那个年代,加拿大不给女性颁发从医资格证,医学院也不招收女学生。但是她凭借自己对医疗事业的热爱和对病人的关爱,把自己的这份事业坚持了下来。

2.B 经过这么多年护理自己生病的姐姐,她发现自己对医学特别感兴趣,所以答案为B项。

4.A 根据后文的描述可知她想成为一名医生,所以答案为A项。
5.B 在那个时代加拿大的医学院不招收女学生,这对她来说是一件很不幸的事,所以答案为B项。besides况且;unfortunately不幸的是;otherwise否则,不然;eventually最后,终于。

10.C 根据第9题的解析和后文她治病救人的经历可知她创办了一家私人诊所,所以答案为C项。
11.A 到了这个新的地方她再次成为一名忙碌的(busy)医生。后文描述她除了给病人治病,还要帮人家接生孩子,由此可知她每天都很忙碌,所以答案为A项。
12.B 此处表达Charlotte在给那些肢体受伤和骨折的人做手术,find oneself doing sth.发现自己在做某事。其他三项均与语境不符。
13.C 她给那些骨折的病人接骨头,broken bones断了的骨头,符合语境。harmful有害的,给……带来害处的;tired疲惫的;weak虚弱的,无力的。
14.D 句意:她曾在蒙特利尔和温尼伯两个地方都申请过从医资格证,但是都被拒绝了。put away收起来,放好;take over接管;turn in上交;apply for申请。根据语境答案为D项。
15.B 根据第14 题的解析可知答案为B项,她遭到了拒绝。
16.D 该大学的医学院想让她在一所加拿大学校完成自己的学业。complete her studies完成她的学业。
17.A 句意:Charlotte拒绝撇下自己的病人去花时间学习那些自己已经知道的东西。
18.C 在1887年她请求曼尼托巴立法院给她颁发从医资格证。issue在此处作及物动词,意为:(正式)发给。
19.A 句意:Charlotte在没有从医资格证的情况下一直继续自己的事业直到1912年。continue to do sth.继续做某事。
20.B 根据首句的Charlotte Whitehead was born in England in 1843及倒数第二段倒数第一句She died four years later at the age of 73.可知到1993年她已经去世77年了。
四、阅读理解
[语篇解读] 本文为应用文,题材为广告说明类。你想要享受假期的愉悦吗?本文主要介绍了在Powerhouse举行的假期活动。
1.A 细节理解题。根据题干中的“Chinese drum dance”可知本题的答案区间为第一项活动。根据其Sunday 29 June and Wednesday 2 July in the Turbine Hall,at 11.30am & 1.30pm.可知答案是A项。
2.C 细节理解题。由“Club Med Circus School”中Learn circus skills,including the trapeze,trampolining and magic.可知C是正确的。
