　　Ⅳ.语法专练

　　本单元语法——will和be going to，真实和虚拟条件句

　　1．—Pity you missed the lecture on nuclear pollution.

　　—I ________ it，but I was busy preparing for a job interview.

　　A．attended　B．had attended

　　C．would attend

　　D．would have attended

　　解析：选D。句意：“你错过了关于核污染的讲座真是遗憾。”“我本想去听的，但我忙着准备工作面试。”由语境可知，此处表示“本想去而事实上没去”，为虚拟语气。叙述与过去事实相反的情况要用would have done，故D项正确。

　　2．(2011·高考江西卷)We ________John’s name on the race list yesterday but for his recent injury.

　　A．will put

　　B．will have put

　　C．would put

　　D．would have put

　　解析：选D。考查虚拟语气的用法。句意为“要不是因为John最近受伤了，我们昨天就把他的名字加进比赛名单中了。”but for 是虚拟语气的提示，yesterday表示过去的时间。对过去的虚拟，用主语＋should/would/could/might ＋ have done表达，故选D。

　　3．(2011·高考辽宁卷)I’ll go to the library as soon as I finish what I ________.

　　A．was doing

　　B．am doing

　　C．have done

　　D．had been doing

　　解析：选B。考查动词的时态。句意为“我一完成眼下正在做的事情就去图书馆。” 主句是将来时，时间状语从句用现在进行时。finish与选项C的have done矛盾，故选B。

　　4．—When will you come to see me，Dad?

　　—I will go to see you when you ________ the training course.

　　A．will have finished

　　B．will finish

　　C．are finishing

　　D．finish

　　解析：选D。在when引导的时间状语从句中应用一般现在时代替一般将来时。

　　5．It ________ long before we ________ the result of the experiment.

　　A．will not be；will know

　　B．is；will know

　　C．will not be；know

　　D．is；know

　　解析：选C。句意：我们将在不久知道试验的结果。此处应用一般将来时，It will not be long是主句，表示不久，而在before引导的时间状语从句中，要用一般现在时表示将来。

　　6．—What are you going to do this afternoon?

　　—I’m going to the cinema with some friends.The film________ quite early，so we________ to the bookstore after that.

　　A．finished；are going

　　B．finished；go

　　C．finishes；are going

　　D．finishes；go

　　解析：选C。由问句“今天下午你要做什么？”的be going to do结构可知动作还没发生，而“电影结束得早”是由电影本身的时间长短决定，与人的主观意志无关，所以应用一般现在时；“电影结束后，我们要去书店”，是“我们”的主观打算，所以应用be going to。

　　7．If you ________ tomorrow，we would have the meeting.

　　A．come

　　B．will come

　　C．are to come

　　D．came

　　解析：选D。主句中用了would have表示虚拟语气，故从句应用虚拟条件句，表示与将来情况相反应用过去时。

　　8．—I’ll come to see your performance at 9∶00 tomorrow evening.

　　—I’m sorry，but by then my performance________ and I________ reporters in the meeting room.

　　A．will end；will meet

　　B．will have ended；will be meeting

　　C．will be ended；am going to meet

　　D．is to end；will meet

　　解析：选B。根据句意及时间状语“at 9∶00 tomorrow evening”和“by then”可知第一空应为将来完成时，第二空应为将来进行时。

　　9．In such dry weather，the flowers will have to be watered if they ________.

　　A．have survived

　　B．are to survive

　　C．would survive

　　D．will survive

　　解析：选B。在真实条件状语从句中不可用be going to，will/shall结构，但可以用be to do结构。

　　10．If he had tried to leave the country，he ________ at the frontier.

　　A．will be stopped

　　B．would be stopped

　　C．would have been stopped

　　D．should have been stopped

　　解析：选C。句意：要是他当时试图离开这个国家，他就会在边界被阻拦。表达与过去事实相反的假设，if从句用过去完成时，主句用would have done。

　　A卷

　　.单项填空

　　1．The research group ________ 15 members has made great

　　achievements in recent years.

　　A．is made up of　B．makes up

　　C．made up of

　　D．making up of

　　解析：选C。句意“这个由15人组成的研究小组近几年里取得了很多成就”。made up of过去分词做定语，修饰the research group，与之构成被动关系。

　　2．(2017·北京海淀调研)—Whose suggestion do you suppose we should take?

　　—________.

　　A．That’s it

　　B．Never mind

　　C．It’s up to you

　　D．You get it

　　A．were

　　B．have been

　　C．has been

　　D．are

　　解析：选C。句意：史密斯先生和他的妻子、孩子都一直盼望圣诞节到来。as well as连接两个并列主语时，谓语动词的数与as well as前面的主语保持一致。

　　4．The man we followed suddenly stopped and looked as if________whether he was going in the right direction.

　　A．seeing

　　B．having seen

　　C．to see

　　D．to have seen

　　解析：选C。句意：我们跟的那个人突然停了下来，似乎想要看看他走的方向是否正确。当as if后接动词时，常使用其不定式形式来表示目的，相当于as if he was to do sth.。

　　5．He is ________to succeed, for he is always working hard.

　　A．likely

　　B．possible

　　C．probable

　　D．easy

　　解析：选A。考查形容词用法。在句型sb./sth. be likely to do...中，主语是人时，likely不能用possible和probable替换。

　　6．(2011·福建建阳外国语学校期中试题)However，it is currently unknown________likely it is that those who get the virus will have severe illness.

　　A．that

　　B．what

　　C．how

　　A．find out

　　B．pick out

　　A．accepted

　　B．disagreed

　　C．rejected

　　D．agreed

　　9．Jane’s pale face suggested that she ________ill, and her parents suggested that she ________medical examination.

　　A．be；should have

　　B．was；have

　　C．should be；have

　　D．was；has

　　解析：选B。考查suggest的宾语从句的时态。当动词suggest作“建议”解时，后面的宾语从句用“(should) ＋ 动词原形”；作“暗示；表明”解时用陈述语气。

　　10．The bright girl ________ the math problem，but she was too careless at that time.

　　A．could work out

　　B．could have worked out

　　C．must have worked out

　　D．should work out

　　解析：选B。句意“这个聪明的女孩本可以解决这道数学题的，但她那时太粗心了。”could have done本可以做……(事实并非如此)。

　　11．—Was the movie good?

　　—It wasn’t great, just ________.

　　A．average

　　B．normal

　　C．usual

　　D．common

　　解析：选A 。考查形容词辨析。 average除了用作“平均的”外，此处意思为 “普通的；平常的；一般的”，这与It wasn’t great相吻合。normal正常的，正规的；标准的；usual通常的；平常的；惯常的；common普通的；常见的。

　　12．Bill really feels sorry that his mother died of cancer.

　　Now if he________a millionaire，he________a hospital for those with cancer.

　　A．had been；would have opened

　　13．—Is Peter there?

　　—________，please.I’ll see if I can find him for you.

　　A．Hold up

　　B．Hold on

　　C．Hold out

　　D．Hold off

　　解析：选B。读题后我们可以发现这是一个打电话场景，接电话的人后面说明了要看一下是否能找到他(Peter)，说明前面要求对方稍等一下，故用hold on(别挂断、稍等)。

　　14．—We ________ as well go straight home.There’s nothing better to do.

　　—OK, though I hate to do so.

　　A．might

　　B．can

　　C．should

　　D．must

　　解析：选A。考查情态动词的用法。might/may(just) as well意为“最好”，有had better之意。

　　15．A bus，________some taxis, was used to send the patients to the nearest hospital.

　　A．and

　　B．but also

　　C．and with

　　D．as well as

　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　Words：322　难度系数：　建议用时：8分钟

　　In the summer of 1978 an English farmer was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered that some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground.The flattened wheat formed a circle about six meters across.Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat.The five circles were in a formation like five dots.During the following years，farmers in England found the strange circles in their fields more and more often.

　　The circles are called“crop circles”because they appear in the fields of grain—usually wheat or corn.The grain in the circles lies flat on the ground but is never broken；it continues to grow，and farmers can later harvest it.Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning，so the circles probably form at night.They appear only in the months from May to September.

　　At first，people thought that the circles were a hoax.Probably young people were making them as a joke，or farmers were making them to attract tourists.To prove that the circles were a hoax，people tried to make circles exactly like the ones that farmers had found.They couldn’t do it.They couldn’t enter a field of grain without leaving tracks，and they couldn’t flatten the grain without breaking it.

　　Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles to communicate with us from far away and that the crop circles are messages from them.

　　Scientists who have studied the crop circles suggested several possibilities.Some scientists say that a downward rush of wind leads to the formation of the circles—the same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash.Other scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear.There is one problem with all these scientific explanations：crop circles often appear in formations，like the five-dot formation.It is hard to believe that any natural force could form those.

　　1．In the summer of 1978，an English farmer discovered in his field that ________.

　　A．some of his wheat had been damaged

　　B．some of his wheat had fallen onto the ground

　　C．his grain was growing up in circles

　　D．his grain was moved into several circles

　　解析：选B。事实细节题。根据第一段的内容可知，英国农夫发现麦田里的麦子倒在地里形成了怪圈。

　　2．The underlined word “hoax” in Paragraph 3 is probably ________.

　　A．an attempt made to fool people

　　B．a special way to plant crops

　　C．an experiment for the protection of crops

　　D．a research on the force of winds

　　解析：选A。猜测词义题。第三段的第二句解释了上句的生词hoax(恶作剧)。

　　3．Which of the following may prove that the crop circles are not made by man?

　　A．The farmers couldn’t step out of the field.

　　B．The farmers couldn’t make the circles round.

　　C．The farmers couldn’t leave without footprints.

　　D．The farmers couldn’t keep the wheat straight up.

　　解析：选C。事实细节题。根据第三段的内容可知，人们试图人为地制造一些类似的“怪圈”，可是他们的尝试以失败而告终，因为只要他们进入麦田，就必然会留下踪迹。

　　4．One explanation given by scientists for the crop circles is that they are made by ________.

　　A．airplane crashes B．air movement

　　C．unknown flying objects

　　D．new farming techniques

　　解析：选B。事实细节题。由文章最后一段的内容可知B项符合题意。

　　backing wind brought a pale sky and a muzzling rain with it，and although it was now only a little after two o’clock in the afternoon the gray of a winter evening seemed to have closed upon the hills，surrounding them in mist.It would be dark by four.The air was cold，and for all the tightly closed windows it influenced the inside of the coach.The leather seats felt damp to the hands，and there must have been a small crack in the roof，because now and again little drips of rain fell softly through，polluting the leather and leaving a dark-blue stain like a spot of ink.The wind came in，at times shaking the coach as it traveled round the bend of the road，and in the exposed places on the high ground it blew with such force that the whole body of the coach trembled and swayed，rocking between the high wheels like a drunken man.

　　The driver，muffled(裹住) in a great coat to his ears，bent almost double in his seat in a faint endeavor to gain shelter from his own shoulders.The few passengers pressed together for warmth，exclaiming all together when the coach sank into a heavier rut(车辙) than usual，and one old fellow，who had kept up a constant complaint ever since he had joined the coach at Truro，rose from his seat in anger；and，feeling with the window-frame，let the window down with a crash，bringing a shower of rain upon himself and his fellow-passengers.He thrust his head out and shouted up to the driver，scolding him in a angry voice for a rogue and a murderer；that they would all be dead before they reached Bodmin if he persisted in driving at dangerous speed；they had no breath left in their bodies as it was，and he would never travel by coach again.
