Ⅱ.单项填空
1.Though ________ of the danger of hiking in such weather, the young men still wouldn't give up their plan.
A.remindingB.reminded
C.being reminded
D.having reminded
解析:选B。由于remind与其逻辑主语the young men之间是被动关系,故用其过去分词形式。though reminded of ...相当于状语从句though they were reminded of ...。
2.________ is obvious that reading in bed does great harm to your eyes.
A.This
B.That
C.They
D.It
解析:选D。It is obvious that ...“很明显……”。该句型中,it作形式主语,that引导主语从句。句意:很明显躺在床上阅读会对眼睛造成很大的伤害。由句意可知D项正确。
3.—What's the matter with Jane?She has been sitting there for hours.
—A letter from her mother ________ an attack of homesickness in her.
A.set out
B.set up
C.set down
D.set off
解析:选D。set out“出发;动身”,set up“建立;建起”,set down“写下;放下”,set off“出发;动身;使爆炸”。根据对话的语境可知D项正确,此处set off用其引申意义,意为“导致;引起”。
4.The actress who had been highly thought of ________ to be a great disappointment.
A.turned up
B.turned out
C.turned down
D.turned in
解析:选B。句意:结果,被推崇的那个女演员令人非常失望。who had been highly thought of是定语从句,修饰actress; turn out “结果是”。
5.As a teacher, Mr Smith always ________ his students for making mistakes in their class discussion.
A.forgets
B.forgives
C.prevents
D.protects
解析:选B。句意:作为一名教师,Smith先生总是原谅学生在课堂讨论中所犯的错误。forgive sb. for doing sth.“宽恕某人做某事”,其他选项均不能和句中的介词for搭配。
6.— What impresses you most about this country?
— Well, great changes ________ even in the faraway areas in the past ten years.
A.have been taken place
B.have taken place
C.took place
D.are taking place
解析:选B。take place无被动形式,句中时间状语in the past ten years提示应使用现在完成时,故选B项。
7.________ the Internet is of great help, I don't think it's a good idea to spend too much time on it.
A.If
B.While
C.Because
D.As
解析:选B。句意:尽管因特网对我们有很大的帮助,但我认为花太多的时间上网也不是一个好主意。while = even though“尽管”;if “如果”;because “因为”;as“因为;当……时候”。只有B项符合句意。
8.As we all know, ________ Dragon Boat Festival in China is held in ________ memory of the famous poet, Qu Yuan.
A.不填; 不填
B.the; the
C.the; a
D.the; 不填
解析:选D。由普通名词转化成的专有名词the Dragon Boat Festival,冠词the不能省去。in memory of是固定词组,memory前不用冠词。
9.Jack had something more important to do; as a result, he couldn't ________ this evening.
A.pick up
B.set up
C.make up
D.turn up
解析:选D。由前半句had something more important to do推测Jack不能到场,故选turn up“出现;到场”。pick up“捡起”;set up“建立”;make up“组成”。
10.— Do you still believe in your roommate?
— Yes.I always hold the ________ that he is an honest fellow.
A.custom
B.truth
C.belief
D.trick
解析:选C。根据答语可知说话人仍信任他的室友,故选C项。 hold the belief that ...表示“相信……”。

For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans.__1__ Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today, Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world.
Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829.__2__ He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847.Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business.This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention.After the gold rush of 1949, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.
Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals.Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners.At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth.__3__ When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric (纤维) to make pants for the miners.These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.
In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets (铆钉).This made the pants last a long time.Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent.__4__.
By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion.__5__ The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world.
A.As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States.
B.Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable.
C.Strauss agreed and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since.
D.However, he did not get much business for those products.
E.Besides, he also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry.
F.Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture.
