　　选修7　Unit 1 (建议用时40分钟)

　　. 单项填空

　　1. (2017·黄山模拟)—Your daughter is in her thirties. I can’t understand ________ married again and again.

　　—Now she is at the peak of her career. Work means more to her than anything else.

　　A. her to delay to get B. her delaying to get

　　C. her to delay getting

　　D. her delaying getting【解析】选D。句意: ——你女儿30多岁了。我不明白她为什么一再地推迟结婚。——眼下她处在事业的高峰期。工作对她来说要比其他事情更重要。understand, delay后面均可以跟动名词, 根据understand sb. doing为动名词的复合结构, delay doing sth. “耽误做某事”可知答案。

　　【误区警示】

　　由于受汉语影响, 学生认为可以用understand sb. to do sth. 而误选C。此题只要记住可以跟动名词的动词即可突破。

　　2. I’m afraid I’m not ________ to help with the talent show, for I am fully occupied with my own project.

　　A. reliable B. acceptable

　　C. convenient

　　3. The organization ________ food and blankets collected from all over the world to the people who survived the earthquake.

　　A. exchanged

　　B. purchased

　　— ________ , I do. I think it’s a great idea.

　　A. Really B. Obviously

　　C. Actually

　　D. Generally

　　【解析】选C。句意: ——你认为与学生交朋友是个好主意吗? ——事实上, 我认为是这样。是个好主意。根据对上句的肯定“认为是个好主意”可知此处为“事实上”。

　　5. We have very strict quality control and anything imperfect is ________ , so customers feel secure about our products.

　　A. denied B. rejected

　　C. deserted

　　D. refused

　　【解析】选B。句意: 我们严把质量关, 任何有瑕疵的产品都被作废, 因此消费者对我们的产品大可放心。reject“(因质量不好而)废弃”符合句意。deny否认; desert抛弃, 遗弃; refuse拒绝。

　　A. distant

　　7. The boy, one of the so-called rich second generation, forced his parents to buy a new car ________ it might cost.

　　A. no matter how

　　B. however high

　　C. no matter how much

　　D. how much

　　【解析】选C。考查让步状语从句。句意: 那一个被称为富二代的男孩强迫他的父母给他买一辆新车, 无论这辆新车值多少钱。“no matter+特殊疑问词”只能引导让步状语从句; 本句是对钱的说明, 应该使用how much。故C正确。

　　【拓展延伸】no matter how与however

　　(1)no matter how(=however)是连接词, 修饰adj. 或adv. , 它的语序是: no matter how(=however)+adj. /adv. +主语+谓语+其他。引导让步状语从句, 从句置于主句前后均可。例如:

　　No matter how(=However)far away you are, you are always in our thoughts.

　　不管你离我们有多么遥远, 我们永远挂念你。

　　(2)however用作一般副词的意思是“但是, 另一方面”。

　　However, it is also necessary to keep the various dialects, which are loved by local speakers and are part of Chinese language.

　　然而, 保留各种方言也是必要的, 它们是当地人所爱的, 也是中国语言的一部分。

　　8. Jess was sad and her friend helped her ________ the first awful weeks after her husband died.

　　A. break through B. break down

　　C. get through

　　D. get rid of

　　【解析】选C。句意: Jess很悲伤, 她朋友帮助她度过了她丈夫去世后的糟糕的头几周。break through打破; break down损坏, 出故障; get through度过, 经过; get rid of去掉, 摆脱。

　　9. Unless ________ to speak, most high school students here prefer remaining silent in class.

　　A. invited B. inviting

　　C. being invited

　　D. having invited

　　【解析】选A。句意: 除非被要求讲话, 否则这里大多数的高中学生喜欢在班上保持沉默。本句是unless引导的省略句, 主语most high school students不能发出invite动作, 用“unless+过去分词”代替状语从句。

　　10. In the past several weeks, many cities in Northern China ________ from heavy fogs, causing great inconvenience to people.

　　A. suffered

　　B. have been suffering

　　C. were suffered

　　D. had been suffered

　　【解析】选B。考查时态和语态。句意: 在过去的几个星期里, 中国北方的许多城市一直遭受着浓雾天气, 给人们带来了极大的不便。由“In the past several weeks”可知, 此处应用现在完成进行时, 表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到现在, 可能还要继续下去, 且many cities与suffer之间是逻辑上的主动关系, 故B项正确。

　　11. —At the end of the day we can gather our guests to enjoy fine wine.

　　—You seem to be getting off the point. How is that ________ to this discussion?

　　A. suitable

　　B. tentative

　　C. parallel

　　D. relevant

　　【解析】选D。句意: ——在一天的最后我们能聚集我们的客人来享受下美酒。——你似乎跑题了。那与我们这次的讨论话题有关吗? suitable合适的; tentative不确定的; parallel平行的; relevant相关的。

　　12. It was only with the help of special instrument ________ the information whether the rice is genetically modified(转基因的).

　　A. did they get

　　B. that they gotC. will they get

　　D. that they get

　　【解析】选B。考查强调句型。句意: 只有在特殊设备的帮助下, 他们才得到了这种大米是否是转基因的信息。强调句型结构: It is/was+被强调成分+that/who+其他成分; 如果把it is/was和that/who去掉, 句子仍然成立。强调句型中使用陈述语序。另外本题是过去时。

　　13. Under no circumstances ________ my bike tomorrow.

　　A. he is borrowing

　　B. is he to borrow

　　C. he will borrow

　　D. was he borrowing

　　【解析】选B。考查倒装。表示否定意义的短语“under no circumstances”置于句首, 要用部分倒装结构, 由此可知应排除A、C两项, 由后面的时间状语tomorrow可知应该用将来时, 故选B。

　　14. With everything ________ , the committee thought their plan was much better than yours.

　　A. being considered B. considered

　　C. to consider

　　D. considering

　　【解析】选B。句意: 把一切考虑在内, 委员会认为他们的计划要比你们的计划好得多。此处为“with+sth. +done”复合结构, consider和everything之间是被动关系, 应用过去分词作宾语补足语。

　　15. —What’s a reasonable tip to leave to the waitress?

　　— ________ , I usually leave 20% of the dinner price.

　　A. Help yourself B. It’s up to you

　　C. That’s the point

　　D. It’s a deal

　　【解析】选B。考查交际用语。句意: ——给服务员合理的小费应该是多少呢? ——你自己做主, 我通常给用餐价格的20%。所以选It’s up to you。Help yourself“自便”; That’s the point“这正是问题的关键”; It’s a deal“成交”。

　　【拓展延伸】英语情景交际“你说了算”大聚会

　　(1)It’s all up to you. 全听你的了。

　　(2)You are the boss. 你是老板(你说了算)。

　　(3)You have the conn. 你说了算。

　　Conn本来是“掌舵”的意思, 后来被当名词用, to have the conn就是负责控制舰艇行驶的方向, 也就是“有决定权”的意思。

　　(4)You have the final say. 你决定吧。

　　(5)The final decision is yours. 你做最后定夺吧。

　　(6)You are in charge here. 你是这里管事儿的。

　　These years, independent enrollment is more and more popular and it has caused a lot of debate. ________________________________________________________

　　___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

　　【参考范文】

　　These years, independent enrollment is more and more popular and it has caused a lot of debate. People’s views on that vary from person to person.

　　Many people support it. To begin with, it provides both colleges and students an extra opportunity. All outstanding students have easier access to their dream universities without too much worry. For the universities, they can enroll talented students in another way. To continue with, the new policy encourages students to develop overall instead of paying only attention to scores. At the same time, it can also reduce the enormous stress of the college entrance examination effectively.

　　However, many others disagree with the policy. In their opinion, many powerful and rich parents will make use of their power and money to get a chance for their children, which is totally unfair to other students. Also, in order to prepare for it, you have to spend much money and time on it while only a few will succeed. It’s not worthwhile at all.

　　Personally, I am for the reform. For one thing, it means college entrance examination is not the only way to get access to university. Two chances are always better than one. For another, it will be beneficial to both colleges and students as long as it is carried out properly.
