　　本单元语法——不定代词和不定式

　　1．(2011·高考陕西卷)—Would you get me a bar of chocolate from the kitchen，dear?

　　—________ one?

　　A．OtherB．Every

　　C．Another

　　D．More

　　解析：选C。考查不定代词的用法。句意为“——亲爱的，可不可以到厨房里给我拿一块巧克力来？——还要吃一块？”another表示“又一；再一”，常放在数词前；如果用more，则通常说one more。

　　2．(2011·高考湖南卷)I knew that ________ would ever discourage him；he would never give up wanting to be a director.

　　A．something

　　B．anything

　　C．everything

　　D．nothing

　　解析：选D。考查不定代词的用法。句意为“我知道没有什么能够阻止他；他决不会放弃做一名导演的念头。”根据后面“never give up”可知前面相应地也要用否定性的不定代词nothing。

　　3．(2017·上海春招)Harrison Ford is thought to be one of the few movie stars ________ as a carpenter before.

　　A．to work

　　B．to be working

　　C．to have worked

　　D．to have been working

　　解析：选C。考查非谓语动词。句意为“Harrison Ford被认为是为数不多的曾经做过木匠的电影明星之一。”“做过木匠”这件事发生在过去，不定式应当用完成时，表示发生过，排除A、B项。因为现在是明星，排除D项，选C。

　　4．My most famous relative of all，__________ who really left his mark on America，was Reb Sussel，my great-grandfather.

　　A．one

　　B．the one

　　C．he

　　D．someone

　　解析：选B。此题考查代词的用法。由句子结构知，此处缺少“my most famous relative”的同位语成分，用来表示特指，故A、D两项可排除。the one可以用来表示特指，指代前面出现过的人；C项虽可作同位语，但前句未提示“relative”的性别；故B项为最佳答案。

　　5．Mrs.White is supposed __________ for China last week.

　　A．to have left

　　B．to be leaving

　　C．to leave

　　D．to have been left

　　解析：选A。根据句中的时间状语last week，可知本句表示过去的情况，用“be supposed to have done sth.”表示过去本应该做某事而实际上没有做。

　　6．I feel upset，for there are so many troublesome problems __________.

　　A．remaining to settle

　　B．remained to settle

　　C．remaining to be settled

　　D．remained to be settled

　　解析：选C。分词作定语时，其逻辑主语就是被修饰词。该题中remain是一个不及物动词，和逻辑主语problems之间只能是主动关系，所以要用remaining来作定语；problems和settle之间是被动关系，所以要用动词不定式的被动式作表语。

　　7．When the teacher came in，the children pretended __________ attentively.

　　A．reading

　　B．to be read

　　C．being reading

　　D．to be reading

　　解析：选D。pretend to be doing sth.表示假装正在做某事。句意：老师进来时，孩子们假装在认真地看书。

　　9．Jane was asked a lot of questions，but she didn’t answer ________of them.

　　A．other

　　B．any

　　C．none

　　D．some

　　解析：选B。句意：Jane被问了很多问题，但她一个都没回答出来。首先排除A项，因为没有“other of...”形式；设空处前有否定词not，根据句意，排除C项；some of...……中的一些，不合句意，故被排除；any与not连用表全部否定，符合句意。

　　10．I felt so bad all day yesterday that I decided this morning I couldn’t face ________ day like that.

　　A．other

　　B．another

　　C．the other

　　D．others

　　解析：选B。句意：昨天一整天我都感觉很糟糕，所以今天早晨我决定不能像那样面对另一天了。another泛指别的任何一天；other作定语，其前通常加some，several，one等限定词；the other强调两者中的另一个；others不作定语。

　　A卷

　　Ⅰ.单项填空

　　1．The Israel’s sudden attack made them more ________ the danger around them.

　　A．aware

　　B．aware about

　　C．aware of

　　D．aware to

　　解析：选C。 用作形容词与之搭配的介词为of，也可以后接从句。当aware后接that从句时，一般不接介词of；若接what等从句，其介词可带也可不带。本题空格后是名词the danger，因此应用aware of。句意为：以色列的突然攻击使他们更加注意周围的危险。

　　2．________he thought he was helping us with the work，he was actually in the way.

　　A．Although

　　B．Unless

　　C．Because

　　D．When

　　解析：选A。句意：虽然他认为他是在帮我们做工作，但事实上他是在碍事。A项意为“虽然”，引导让步状语从句；B项意为“除非，如果不”，引导条件状语从句；C项意为“因为”，引导原因状语从句；D项主要引导时间状语从句。根据语境可知，答案为A。

　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　Words：332　难度系数：★★　建议用时：7分钟

　　Having a husband creates an extra seven hours of housework each week for women.But for men，the picture is very different.The findings are part of a detailed study of housework trends，based on 2005 time diary data，conducted since 1968 at University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research.

　　It’s a well-known pattern.There’s still a significant reallocation (重新分配) of labor that occurs at marriage—men tend to work more outside home，while women take on more of the household labor.Certainly there’re all kinds of individual differences here，but in general，this is what happens after marriage.And the situation gets worse for women when they have children.

　　Overall，the amount of housework done by the U．S.women has dropped considerably since 1976，while the amount of housework done by men has increased.In 1976，women did an average of 26 hours of housework a week，compared with about 17 hours in 2005.Men did about 6 hours of housework a week in 1976，compared with about 13 hours in 2005.

　　But when the researchers looked at just the last 10 years，comparing how much housework single men and women in their 20s did in 1996 with how much they did in 2005 if they stayed single versus (对于) if they got married，they found a slightly different pattern.Both the men and the women who got married did more housework than those who stayed single.Marriage is no longer a man’s path to less housework.

　　Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework— about 12 hours a week on average，while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most—about 21 hours a week.Men showed a somewhat different pattern.Older men did more housework than younger men，but single men did more in all age groups than married men.In addition，the number of children also works.

　　1．What does the author mean by saying “But for men，the picture is very different.”in Paragraph 1 ?

　　A. The author referred to the picture inserted in the text.

　　B．Having a wife can reduce a husband’s housework.

　　C．Men often like different pictures compared with women.

　　D．Men or husbands are often very lazy at home.

　　解析：选B。句意理解题。由文章大意可知，此处是指对于男性来说情况是不同的，这说明其情况与女性不一样，甚至相反。

　　2．What is the purpose of the fourth paragraph?

　　A. To show the young people should work hard.

　　B．To show men and women all do more after marriage.

　　C．To tell readers the importance of marriage for men.

　　D．To show men and women are still unequal.

　　解析：选B。作者意图题。根据文章第四段可知，不论男女，在结婚后所做的家务劳动都会增加，只不过女性增加的多而男性增加的少罢了。

　　3．Which of the following charts shows the correct information according to the text?

　　解析：选C。图表理解题。根据文章第三、四段的描述可知，选项C的图表中所提供的数字与本文所提供的数字一致。

　　4．Which can be the best title for this passage?

　　A．Men and Women

　　B．Marriage and Housework

　　C．Men and Housework

　　D．The History of Women

　　解析：选B。标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了结婚给男女在家务劳动的分工上带来的影响。

　　__16__

　　water is to fish.He who is without goodness is an utterly

　　person.On the contrary，as the famous saying goes，“The fragrance always stays in the hand

　　If I could select a word that best describes the majority of American parents, that word would be guilt-ridden (内疚的)．How sad it is to see parents become the willing victims of the “give-me game”， only to discover that, no matter what they do, it isn’t enough.In the end, they are looked down for their lack of firmness and blamed when their spoiled children get into trouble.With this in mind, I shall first answer this question: “What do parents owe their children？”And I shall start with what they don’t owe them.

　　Parents don’t owe their children every minute of their day and every ounce of their energy.They don’t owe round-the-clock car service, singing lessons, tennis lessons, an expensive car when they reach sixteen, or a trip to Europe when they graduate.

　　I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education.If they can afford it, fine.But they need not feel guilty if they can’t.If the children really want to go, they’ll find a way.Here are plenty of loans and scholarships for the bright and eager who can’t afford to pay.

　　After children marry, their parents do not owe them a house or money for the furniture.They do not have an obligation to baby-sit their grandchildren when the parents were on vacation.If they want to do it, it must be considered a favour, not an obligation.

　　In my opinion, parents do not owe their children an inheritance, no matter how much money they have.One of the surest ways to produce a loafer is to let children know that their future is assured.

　　Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.

　　One of their chief obligations is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem is the basis of a good mental health.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline.Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal belongings.

　　No child asks to be born.If you bring a life into the world, you owe the children something.And if you give him his due, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.

　　When you see geese flying along in V formation, you might consider what science has discovered as to why they fly that way.

　　As each bird flaps wings, it creates an uplift for the bird immediately following.By flying in V formation, the whole flock at least 71 percent greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own.Individuals who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going more quickly and easily because they are travelling on the pushing force of one another.

　　When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone, and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird in front.If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those people who are headed the same way we are.

　　When the head goose gets tired, it moves back in the formation and another goose flies point.It is sensible to take turns doing demanding jobs, whether with people or with geese flying south.

　　Geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.What messages do we give when we honk from behind?

　　Finally—and this is important—when a goose gets sick or is wounded by gunshot, and falls out of formation, two other geese fall out with that goose and follow it down to lend help and protection.They stay with the fallen goose until it is able to fly or until it dies, and only then do they launch out on their own, or with another formation, to catch up with their group.

　　If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other like that.
