If you dont look _ , youll get that heavy box on your

30、head.A.outB.onC.intoD.over答案:Alook out 意为“小心，留神”。问题:2. He has the same color of hair and eyes _ his father.A.likeB.asC.toD.of答案:B解析 本题考查短语用法。本题句意为：他有着和父亲一样颜色的头发和眼 睛。the same表示“与相同”。知识点 表示“与相同”类似短语有：look alike，take after等。例如：The twin sisters look alike这对孪生姐妹看上去很像。 The son took after his father in app

31、earance and behavior儿子在外貌和行为上和他的父亲 很相像。问题:3. When the manager went to Canada on business, his _ took over all his duties.A.caretakerB.officerC.deputyD.commander答案:Cdeputy意为“副手，副职”。问题:4. Alice was about to_, when she suddenly found an answer to the question.A.make upB.look upC.turn upD.give up答案:D精析

32、本题考查的是动词词组的意思。make up是“编造，补偿，化妆，整理”的意思；look up是“向上看，改善，查找”的意思；turn up是 “翻开，出现”的意思；give up是“放弃，对不抱希望”的意思。故D正确。问题:5. Please put Marys things back where you found them _ she wont know where they are.A.andB.orC.butD.then答案:B问题:6. It isnt _John says that annoys me but the way he says it.A.howB.thatC.whyD

33、.what答案:D精解 本题考查强调句。It is/isnt. that. 为强调句型，本句强调的是主语从句. John says。that annoys me并不是say的宾语，所以本句缺少及物动词say的宾语，故选what。从属连词that必须用在不缺主语或宾语的句子中。how和why在从句中作状语，用在这里不合适，所以本题答案选D。问题:7. The plane _ a few minutes after it took off and most of the passengers died.A.collidedB.crushedC.crashedD.smashed答案:Ccrash意为

34、“(飞机)坠毁”；collide意为“(车、船的)猛撞”，常与with 连用；crush 意为“压坏，压碎”；smash 意为“打碎，猛撞”。问题:8. The disease has completely _ in this country.A.died outB.died downC.died awayD.died off答案:A整个句子想要表达的意思是: 这种病在这个国家已经完全灭绝。died out具有“逐渐消失；灭绝”的意思，因此是最合适的选择。die down也有“逐渐消失”的意思，但常跟风、雨、争论等搭配。如：The wind died down noticeably(风力已显著

35、减弱。)die away也有“逐渐消失”的意思，但尤指声音的由强变弱，最后完全消失。如: Her footsteps died away in the darkness(她的脚步声在黑暗中渐渐远去。) die off意为“相继死去”，如: Her friends are all dying off(她的朋友都在相继死去。)问题:9. -Do you have enough to_all your daily expenses? -Oh yes, enough to spare. A.coverB.spendC.fillD.offer答案:A解析 本题考查固定搭配。原题的意思是：你有足够用以支付

36、日常费用的钱吗?是的，足够并且还有结余。Cover(指钱)够(某事物)用，例如：10 pounds will cover our petrol for the journey10英镑就足够支付我们旅行的汽油费。The firm barely covers (its) costs；it has not made a profit for years该公司几乎人不敷出，已经多年没有盈利了。spend“花费”，fill“填充”，offer“主动提供”。故选择A。问题:10. According to a recent US survey, children spent up to 25 hours

37、a week _TV.A.to watchB.watchingC.watchD.watched答案:B 考点 固定搭配和非谓语动词 解析 本句意为：根据美国最新调查，儿童每周看电视的时间高达25个小时。spend(in)doing sth“花费做某事”。 问题:11. Mrs. Wilson works more slowly than the other secretaries because she takes pride _ everything that she does.A.inB.ofC.toD.on答案:Atake pride in是固定搭配，意为“以为自豪”。注意这样的搭配还有

38、be proud of，pride oneself on/upon。问题:12. If youre going to the airport by car, can you give me a _?A.liftB.seatC.driveD.hand答案:A精解 本题考查名词的词义。lift作名词时，意为“举起，电梯，起重机，搭车”；seat作名词时，意为“座，座位，所在地”； drive作名词时，意为“驾驶，驱动器，快车道，推进力，驱使”； hand意为“手，掌管，协助，支配，帮助”。句意是“我可以搭个便车吗?”give sb. a lift意为“搭便车”，所以本题答案选A。问题:13. Yo

39、u are always late. You _ late three times this week.A.are beingB.wereC.had beenD.have been答案:D解析 本题考查不同动词时态的含义和用法。A为现在进行时，B为过去时，C为过去完成时，D为现在完成时。现在完成时表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响。本题的句意是“你总是迟到，你本周已经迟到三次了”，所以要用D。问题:14. Where was it _ the road accident happened yesterday?A.whenB.thatC.whichD.how答案:B问题:15. _ from t

40、he apple tree.A.It down fellB.It fell downC.Down fell itD.Fell it down答案:B第二节 完型填空 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。 In sports the sexes are separate. 1 and men do not run or swim in the same races.

Life can be very complicated when there are more than two separate sexes. 1.A.WomanB.WomansC.WomenD.Females答案:C解析 考查上下文理解。由前一句中的separate (se

45、xes)、空格后表并列的and和性别之一men可知，应选另一性别的复数形式。注意，female与male相对。B的形式不正确。2.A.at leastB.at mostC.at lessD.at more答案:A解析 考查固定搭配与上下文理解。at least至少；at most最多。本句指的是“至少人们是这么说的”，故选前者。C、D两项搭配都不正确。3.A.thatB.whichC.whatD.who答案:C解析 考查从句连接词。填入的连接词不但作主句的表语，还作从句中say的宾语，因此选what。4.A.callB.calledC.callsD.to call答案:B解析 考查语态。本题较

46、为容易，因为女性是“被叫做”the weaker sex，故应用被动语态。A、C都不能用在系动词后。5.A.inB.toC.onD.at答案:D解析 考查搭配。除on外，其他三项都可与school搭配。但in school指“在求学，在上学”，它只用作表语；to school前一般用动词go，表示“去上学”；at school指“在学校里”，可作表语，也可作状语。本句中因为空格后的介词宾语还有universities，因此表达的肯定是“在学校和大学里”，故选at。6.A.whoB.whomC.whatD.that答案:A解析 考查从句连接词。由句子结构分析，空格后应是其前women的定语从句，

47、由于先行词是人，且连接词在从句中作主语，因此只能选A。7.A.AB.AnC.TheD./答案:A解析 考查冠词用法。此处表示的是泛指的一个欧洲女性，因此不能用定冠词；所指又是单数，因此须用不定冠词。European虽以元音字母开头，但其发音并不是元音，所以用a修饰。8.A.liveB.to liveC.livingD.lived答案:B解析 考查动词用法。expect(期待，希望)后跟带to的动词不定式。9.A.amongB.betweenC.underD.amount答案:C解析 考查介词用法与上下文理解。选项中能用于单个时间数词前的介词是under，指“低于，不到”。among用于指三者或

48、三者以上“之中”；between指两者“之间”，应与and连用；amount是名词，不能直接用于数词前。10.A.menB.manC.mensD.mans答案:C解析 考查名词的所有格形式。由句意可知，这里是将男女整体进行比较，前面用的是复数形式的所有格，那么后面也应用复数形式的所有格，选mens。11.A.fastB.fasterC.fastestD.fastly答案:C解析 考查形容词的比较级别。根据句意与上下文可知，这里应当是指“最快的女性游泳运动员是年轻女孩”，所以选：fastest。12.A.inB.onC.underD.between答案:A解析 考查介词用法。“in+时间段”表示

49、的是在这一时间段内完成某事，且前文中已经出现了in(under) 4 minutes这一搭配，据此也可确定答案。注意，under单用在时间数词前指的是大致时间，与后面精确到秒相矛盾，因此本题不能填入under。13.A.wereB.isC.wasD.are答案:C解析 考查时态与主谓一致。首先，主语是the first Tartan，谓语应用单数形式(不能被空格前的介词结构in films迷惑)；其次，叙述的是过去发生的情况，应用过去时态。结合起来知选C。14.A.thatB.whenC.whoD.which答案:D解析 考查从句连接词。由句子结构分析可知，空格后是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词

50、是空格前的时间数词，且连接词在从句中作主语，因此只能选D。15.A.slowB.fastC.slowerD.faster答案:C解析 考查上下文理解。由此句中列举的时间与前面一句指出的如今最快的一名女性游泳运动员的成绩比较可知，他比她慢了37.9秒，因此选slower。16.A.laterB.lateC.latelyD.latest答案:A解析 考查同根易混词与上下文理解。later可用作副词，指“此后，后来”，也可作形容词，指“以后的”；late也可用作副词与形容词，指“迟(的)，晚(的)”；lately是副词，指“近来”；latest是形容词，指“最新的”。本题应填入一个副词，且指“50年

51、后”，因此只能选A。17.A.onB.atC.upD.in答案:C解析 考查固定搭配与上下文理解。catch on开始明白；catch at试图抓住；catch up赶上，追上；catch in一般用被动语态，指“陷入”。由上下文不难看出这里指的是女性赶上男性，因此选C。18.A.mostB.leastC.moreD.less答案:C解析 考查比较级别。由于空格前是副词much，它只能修饰比较级，故A、D不对。而由上下文可知这里指的是“体育更严肃”，因此选肯定的C。19.A.suchB.soC.veryD.many答案:B解析 考查固定搭配。由空格后的被修饰词是形容词serious与that可

52、知，应选so，构成固定搭配so. that. ，指“如此以致”。20.A.ifB.butC.thatD.whether答案:D解析 考查固定搭配。由本句最后的or not及句意考生应能很快确定答案为whether，因为whether. or not是固定搭配。第三部分 阅读理解 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。 A There are several explanations for why the circle is divided into 360 parts. Probably the best explanation is connected wit

53、h the Babylonians(巴比伦人). Many, many centuries ago, large distances were measured in the Babylonian mile. The Babylonian mile equaled about seven of our miles. Because of its length, the time needed to travel the Babylonian mile became a measure of time. One day was said to be twelve Baby-Ionian time

54、-miles. About one thousand years before Christ, the Babylonians began keeping records of star movements. They needed a way to record how much time passed between the moment they first saw a star and then observed it again. They used the Babylonian time-mile as their measure of time. In order to have

55、 small units of time, the Babylonians divided their time-mile into thirty parts. The Babylonians believed that each trip around the sky was a circle. One complete trip around the sky, they reasoned, took one day. You already know that one day was the same as twelve Babylonian time-mile. Since each time-mile was divided into thirty parts, the circular trip around
