　　 课时作业(二十)

　　Ⅰ.1.B　表示“同意计划(plan)、建议(suggestion)、安排(arrangement)等”多用agree to；表示“就……达成一致意见”应用agree on。board委员会，董事会，(政府机关或商业)部门。

　　2．C　be up to 表示“忙于，从事于”，其中to为介词，所以应排除连接副词why 和how；根据句意判断应选what引导宾语从句，表示“忙于什么”。

　　3．D　此题考查形容词词义的辨析。所用句型为“It would be ＋ adj.＋ for sb. to do sth.”。句意为：你方不方便四点钟来接我并带我去机场？convenient意为“方便的，便利的”，其反义词为inconvenient，它们的主语均不为人。free自由的，空闲的；vacant空白的；handy手边的，就近的，便于使用的，均可排除。

　　4．D　此题考查固定搭配sb. be familiar with sth.＝sth. be familiar to sb.意为“某人对某事比较熟悉(某事为某人所熟悉)”。

　　5．B　考查定语从句。在本句中先行词为degree，将其代入定语从句后应为：Human facial expressions can be controlled on purpose to a degree。

　　6．C　考查虚拟语气。demand(要求)后接从句时，从句中谓语部分使用虚拟语气，即由“should ＋动词原形”，should可以省略。需要注意的是，此句中“skilled workers”与“send”间为逻辑上的被动关系，故要用被动语态。

　　7．B　考查代词。none能够用来回答含“any＋名词”的疑问句。to speak of 一般用于否定句，相当于worth mentioning，在此处与none 连用引申为“没有困难”。

　　8．C　考查时态。由but可判断，此空表“与他已失去约5年的联系”之意，排除A项；lose touch with为短暂性动词短语，在肯定句不能与一段时间的状语搭配，故排除B项。由上下文语境可知，该空需用现在完成时，而不用过去完成时，故选C。

　　9．D　 考查部分倒装。under no circumstances意为“决不”，置于句首时引起部分倒装。

　　10. C　考查非谓语动词。根据短语“rid sb.of sth.”可知逻辑主语the old man与该空动词为被动关系，故选C。

　　11．A　考查动词词义辨析。A项意为“否认”；B项意为“拒绝”；C项意为“拒绝，抵制”；D项意为“下降，谢绝”。根据句意“你仍然生她的气吗？”“不完全是，但是我无法否认她的评论伤了我。”可知选A项。

　　12．D　 考查情态动词的用法。句意为：“布雷克还缺课吗？我想如果他继续缺课的话，他会受到惩罚。”这里指按照规定会受到惩罚，是shall的用法，故选D。本题容易误选其他答案，是因为对情态动词的用法没彻底掌握。

　　13．B　考查动词时态的用法。句意为：“我女儿这个夏天要到餐馆工作，但是她不太喜欢。”从but连接的第二个分句的时态和含义可知第一分句的时态是现在时，故排除A和C，而D项则表达经常性的动作和状态，和句意不符。is working在此是进行时表达将来时的含义，故选B。本题容易误选其他答案，主要是对时态的含义掌握不准。

　　14．A　考查冠词。句意为：大家都认为这里会有大量的淡水，但是令人失望的是事实却相反。此处supply表示“供应量”，为可数名词，故其前加不定冠词；此处opposite特指一件事情的“对立面”，为可数名词，故应用定冠词修饰。

　　15．A　句意为：“你已经找到工作了吗？”“没有，我正等着呢。”由语境可知，此处表示当前正在发生的动作，故用现在进行时。

　　Ⅱ.16.A　根据下文可知作者想给每个邻居送一件“礼物”。

　　17．D　由于作者不知道女土的确切地址，所以把她“排”在了最后。

　　18．B　作者经过一番思索，才“最终”作出决定。

　　19．C　作者在信箱里发现了一张“便条”。

　　20．D　根据本段开头部分中的inside the mailbox可知作者打开的是“信封”。

　　21．B　作者只是把篮子“放在”门廊上让主人自己拿。

　　22．A　这样做太“体贴”了。

　　23．A　上—句提到他已经过世，所以可推断是“生病”期间。

　　24．B　与第二段第一句中的friendly相呼应。

　　25．B　那篮子水果给了—个临终的人极大的心理安慰，所以作者相信那个篮子“本应”送给Richard Kelly。

　　26．C　作者本想把那篮子水果送给那位女士，可她没有“收到”，作者有些怨恨。

　　27．A　作者通过上述事情认识到人生没有“失误”，有时会有出人意料的结果。

　　Ⅲ.本文讲述了泰德·特纳的童年及其在商业上所取得的成就。

　　28．A　细节理解题。根据第一段Best known for his CNN, Ted Turner launched a second nationwide all－news network可判断选A。

　　29．D　段落大意题。本段首句就指出泰德·特纳在43岁之前就有所建树，之后就具体列举他所取得的成就，最后一句就提问：他为什么能如此年轻就取得这些成就呢？由此判断该段旨在说明：泰德·特纳在早年的时候就已经非常成功，故选D。

　　30．B　推理判断题。根据第三段Even though Turner had friends at school, it didn’t make up for the absence of his parents and sister.可判断选B。

　　31．C　推理判断题。全文重点介绍了泰德·特纳所取得的成就，尤其结合第四段During the next twenty years, Ted Turner worked hard to accumulate enough power and money to fulfill his father’s dream.可推断作者认为泰德·特纳是一个有抱负之人，故选C。

　　32．C　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Reflecting on his father’s death, however, Ted Turner realized that it was dangerous to put too much emphasis on material possessions.He decided to use his hard－earned influence to serve the public.可推断父亲的死改变了他的世界观，使他欲投身于为大众服务的事业中去，由此判断选C。
