25、through the center.问题:1. Im as short as she is, I mean I am _ she is.A.not tall thanB.no taller thanC.not as tall asD.no more taller than答案:B本题测试的是比较级的用法。全句的意思是：“我和她一样矮，就是说我不比她高。”no+ 比较级+than表示“与一样也不”，及主语和从句都是否定。选项A、 C,D为结构性错误，不符合“not+形容词比较级”或“no十形容词比较级”的结构要求。单音节形容词比较级前不加more，变化在词尾。根据句意，应选答案B。问题:2.

26、By eleven oclock the day before yesterday, we _ at the station.A.had arrivedB.have arrivedC.shall arriveD.arrive答案:A本题测试的是动词过去完成时的用法。全句的意思是：“到前天11点钟为止，我们已经到车站了。”by接时间名词作状语通常表示一段时间，本题已给出一个明确的过去时间，即“By eleven oclock the day before yesterday”，说明主句谓语动词所表示的动作发生在此之前，因此主句时态应用过去完成时表示过去的过去发生的动作。根据句意，应选答案A。问题

27、:3. Lily looked so sad because she had _ by her friends.A.laughedB.laughed atC.been laughedD.been laughed at答案:D本题测试的是动词被动语态的用法。全句的意思是：“莉莉看起来很伤心，是因为她被朋友嘲笑了。”根据句意，可判断出此空应用动词的被动语态。在被动语态中，短语动词laugh at中的介词at不能省略。laugh意为“大笑”，laugh at意为“嘲笑”。根据句意，应选答案D。问题:4.

28、is office after leaving hospital.A.persistsB.consistsC.insistsD.resists答案:A本题测试的是动词词义的辨析。全句的意思是：“出院后老板依然坚持每天在他的办公室工作10个小时。”persist in doing是固定搭配，意为“坚持做某事”，指的是坚持一种实践或行为。consist of意为“由组成”；insist on意为“坚持(一个主张、意见)”；resist doing意为“抗拒”。根据句意，应选答案A。问题:5. Jim _ be a basketball player, for he is much too shor

29、t.A.needntB.cantC.shouldntD.may答案:B本题测试的是情态动词表示猜测功能的用法。全句的意思是：“吉姆不可能成为一名篮球运动员，因为他太矮了。”根据句意可判断出此题是对现在情况的否定性的推断。“must + have done”表示对过去情况的肯定猜测，否定句中用“cant + have done”。应选答案B。问题:6. If she had studied harder, she _.A.wouldnt have failedB.hadnt failedC.should failD.wouldnt fail答案:A本题测试的是动词的虚拟语气的用法。全句的意思是：

30、“要是她努力学习，她就不会考试不及格了。”从if引导的从句中谓语动词是had done结构可判断出此句对过去情况棍反的虚拟语气，即为would have done结构。根据句意，应选答案A。问题:7. The United Nations _ formed in 1945.A.isB.wasC.areD.were答案:B本题测试的是主谓一致的用法。全句的意思是：“联合国形成于1945年。”1945年是过去时间状语，因此排除A选项和C选项。联合国是机构名称，作主语时，谓语用单数。根据句意，应选答案B。问题:8. Though it was getting dark, _ still went o

31、n working.A.heB.but heC.and heD.so he答案:A本题测试的是让步状语从句的用法。全句的意思是：“虽然天已经黑了，但他还在工作。”在让步状语从句中，though和but不能出现在同一个句子中，也不能和so/and连用。根据句意，应选答案A。问题:9. _ is known to the world, Beethoven is a great German musician.A.AsB.WhichC.ThatD.Who答案:A本题测试的是定语从句的用法。全句的意思是：“全世界都知道贝多芬是一位伟大的德国音乐家。”that不可以用来引导非限制性定语从句；which引

32、导定语从句时用来指物，who用来指人，但都不可用于句首。as引导非限制性定语从句一般置于主句的前面，修饰后面的整个主句，表示“如，像”之意。根据句意，应选答案 A。问题:10. The first thing _ I would do when I get America is to write to you.A.whichB.thatC.asD.what答案:B本题测试的是定语从句的用法。全句的意思是：“当我到达美国后要做的第一件事就是给你写信。”当定语从句所修饰的先行词前有序数词或形容词的最高级时，关系代词只能用that。根据句意，应选答案B。Section BDirections: Th

Which is the largest (national) _ in Europe?答案:nation本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“欧洲最大的国家是哪一个?”括号中给出的是形容词national，其前面是定冠词the和形容词largest，显然这是一个名词短语，这里应该将形容词national转换成名词nation作表语。问题:5. We made an

36、(agree) _ to meet every year on March 15th.答案:agreement 本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“我们达成协议每年3月15日相见。”短语make an agreement是“达成协议”之意。问题:6. Many people think that twins should (dress) _ alike, but I dont think so.答案:be dressed本题测试的是动词词义的辨析。全句的意思是：“许多人认为双胞胎应该穿着一样，可我不这样认为。”be dressed(in)是固定短语，译为“穿着”。情态动词should后接动词

(Give) _ him an inch, he will take a mile.答案:Given本题测试的是非谓语动词的用法。全句的意思是：“他得寸进尺。”括号中给出的是动词give，与主句主语构成动宾关系，因此采用过去分词形式表被动。Part Rea
