I like climbing

24、mountains_ my brother prefers water sports.A.asB.whileC.whenD.for答案:B连词while引导状语从句，表示对比，可译为“而”。问题:4. The medicine has many functions, _ are unknown to us.A.some of whichC.that some of themB.of which some of themD.which of them答案:A逗号后面是非限定性定语从句，由which引导，which指代functions，同时作从句的主语，此处which前有限定词some of。句

25、意：这个药有许多作用，其中有一些是不为我们所知的。问题:5. Never in my life _such a beautiful scene!A.I have seenB.I had seenC.have I seenD.did I see答案:C解析 本题考查倒装，当否定词或含有否定意义的词或短语放在句首时，句子一般为部分倒装。此题否定词never放在句首，需要倒装。时态选择上应用现在完成式表示到目前为止；故选C)；类似用法的否定词汇：还有no，never，neither， seldom，hardly，little，few，rarely，barely，scarcely等等。问题:6. Th

26、e manager, as well as some workers _ yesterday afternoon.A.were workingB.was workingC.has been workingD.have been working答案:B解析 本题考查的是主谓一致的用法。主语是The manager，而不是后面的some workers，所以谓语用单数形式，且时间状语是yesterday afternoon 表示过去，故选项B为正确答案。避错指南 A项和D项在数量上与单数主语不一致；C项是动词的现在完成时，与后面时间不一致，故均排除。问题:7. But for the rain,

27、we _ a pleased journey.A.will haveB.should have hadC.would haveD.must have had答案:B解析 考点：虚拟语气。有时虚拟条件句会被一些介词、连词或分词代替，而形成不完整的条件句，这种现象称为含蓄条件句。表达方式主要有：with，without， in，but for(要不是)，otherwise(否则)等。例句 But for air there would be no life on the earth要不是空气，地球上就没有生命。问题:8. Time is limited and I can _ finish my

28、work in time.A.almostB.evenC.nearlyD.hardly答案:D解析 本题考查词义辨析。almost意为“几乎，差不多”；even意为“甚至”；nearly意为“几乎”；hardly意为“几乎没有”。根据句意应选D。问题:9. After _ for the job, youll be required to take a language test.A.being interviewedB.interviewedC.interviewingD.having interviewed答案:A在介词after之后，应当用动名词，四个选项中只有B不是动名词形式，所以不是

29、答案。另外，句子的主语是you，动词应当用被动形式。选项C是动名词的主动语态，不是答案。选项D是动名词的主动语态完成式，也不是答案。选项A是动名词的被动语态，填入空格中，结构和语意均合题意，为正确答案。试比较以下例子：You should check the ail before starting the car.发动汽车之前，你应当检查润滑油的情况。(句子主语是you，与start的关系是主动关系，所以用动名词的主语语态。)The questions are far from being settled问题远没有解决。(句子的主语是the question，与settle之间是被动关系，即“

30、问题被解决”，所以用名词的被动语态。)问题:10. His oral English was so poor that he fond it impossible to make himself _.A.understandB.understoodC.to understandD.understanding答案:B宾语后的动词understand和宾语himself是逻辑上的动宾关系，而不是主谓关系，所以用过去分词表示被动。make oneself understood/heard意思是“使自己让人家明白/听到”。Section B问题:1. Bread and butter (be) my

31、favorite breakfast.答案:is解析 主谓一致。由and连接两个或两个以上的单数名词作主语，如果指同一概念，谓语动词用单数。而且本题没有具体的时间，应该是一般陈述，要用一般现在时。问题:2. If this company _ (have) such a good reputation, I would not have come here.答案:had not had此题有一定的难度。然后据主句“I would not.have come here.”的时态将“have”改成过去完成时。最后，由于句意是否定的，所以将“had had”变成“had not had”。问题:3.

32、 I kept telling him to avoid (make)_the same spelling mistake in his composition.答案:making本题测试动名词的用法。avoid 要跟动名词作宾语，所以应填入making。问题:4. The electric current (break) _ , the workers stopped working right away.答案:broken解析该题考查的是非谓语动词。带逻辑主语的分词作状语，从句意看用过去分词。问题:5. He made many mistakes in his composition be

33、cause of_ (care).答案:carelessness解析 他由于粗心，作文错误很多。because-of后接名词。Part Reading Comprehension In the 74-year history of the Academy Awards, women have been nominated for best director exactly twice.

34、lds where there are more women, they tend to fare(勉强过得去) poorly against men. Of the 146 writers nominated for an Academy Award in the last decade, for example, only 16 have been women.

How many men have been nominated for best screenwriter in the history of Academy A wards?A.16.B.146.C.162.D.130.答案:D解析 事实细节题。根据第二段Of the 146 writers nominated for an Academy Award in the last decade

38、，for example，only 16have been women可知，有146名编剧获得奥斯卡提名，其中只有16名女性。本题要注意审题，因此答案应该是D130。2. As for the situation of the black actor, which of the following is true?A.Only one black actor has ever been nominated for the Academy Awards.B.Only three black actors have ever won the best director title.C.Only 1

39、6 black actors have ever been nominated for best actor.D.The black actors experience more unfair treatment.答案:D解析 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句Only three black actors have ever won the top award and only 15 have ever been nominated，compared with over 300 white actors只有三位黑人演员曾获得过奥斯卡最高奖项，曾获提名的也只有十五位，而与此形成对比的是，曾获提名的

40、白人演员却有300多位，由此可推断DThe black actor experiences more unfair treatment黑人演员承受了更多不公的待遇。3.

43、女明星，因此可以推断男演员们穿什么颜色的礼服没有人会产生非议，offense本意是冒犯，这里与它意思最接近的应该是Adisrespect无礼，不尊敬，注意dis-是一个常见的表示否定的前缀。5. The author mentioned two important things in this passage, they are _.A.Hollywood and Academy awardsB.Hollywood and sexual separationC.actors and actressesD.racial discrimination and sexual difference答案

44、:D解析通读文章，主要谈论了奥斯卡奖评选中的女性和黑人所受到的不公正待遇，总结起来就是两点，即选项D racial discrimination and sexual difference种族歧视和性别歧视。 First aid (急救) is the care given to the injured or sick as soon as possible after an accident or illness.

50、her peoples hesitation to offer first aidB.unprofessional first aidC.unnecessary first aidD.unwise suggestions by by-standers答案:A解析 本题为推理题。主要测试对因果关系的理解。题中包含结果(some people died)要求找出原因(as a result of)。在文章第三段，“not knowing what to do, or being too fearful to try”，这个分词短语给出了原因。故本题答案为A。3.
