18、 mixing sand and other materials together in the right amounts. Then they added some broken glass to the mixture as this helps it to melt. They then fed the mixture into a big hot oven. At the far end of the oven, a stream of liquid glass came out. Here some men lowered a metal frame into the liquid

19、. As the frame came up, it pulled away a hot sheet of glass. Special rollers took hold of the sheet at either side and carried it upwards. Our guide told us that at this stage it was necessary for the glass to cool slowly as this would make it very strong. At a height of 30 feet, the sheet of glass

20、became cool and another machine cut it into big pieces which workmen stored away together. The glass was now ready for use. 11. What sort of factory did we visit last year?2.

It consists of 2 sections.Section ADirection

23、s: In this section, there are 10 incomplete sentences. You are required to complete each one by deciding on the most appropriate word or words from the 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.问题:1. In

24、 no way _ the amount of heat.A.the temperature equalsB.does the temperature equalC.equals the temperatureD.do the temperature equal答案:B解析 温度跟热量绝对不是同一回事。由于作状语的介词短语in no way具有否定意义，并被放在句首，所以主谓要倒装。再如：In n0 way is he an honest man他根本不是个诚实人。类似的情况还有：By no means are the goods satisfactory这些货物一点也不叫人满意。At no

25、point has the issue been well settled这个问题根本没得到很好的解决。问题:2. Volcanoes (火山) _ as active, dormant and extinct.A.describedB.are describedC.beingD.which are described答案:B解析 火山分为活火山，暂死火山和死火山。本句考查被动语态的基本用法，主语volcanoes是一复数名词，与其发生关系的是及物动词describe。选项A是主动语态，不是答案。若选C或D放入空格中，不能构成完整句子，所以也不可取。再如：This book is transl

26、ated into English byJohn and Henny这本书是由约翰和亨利译成英语的。问题:3. Were all three people in the car injured in the accident? No, _ only the two passengers who got hurt. A.there isB.it wereC.there wasD.it was答案:D解析 “车上这三人都在事故中受伤了吗?”“不，只有两名乘客受了伤”。本句的答句是一个强调结构，其形式为“It is(was)+被强调部分+that，在此结构中，it之后的is(was)不随被强调部分的

27、人称或数的变化而变化，而要跟it一致。被强调的事情在过去发生时，用was。另注意：强调的对象是时间和地点等状语时，不用when或where，而要用that，但强调人时，可以用who或whom。例如：It is on Dec.20.1999 that Macao will return to its motherland澳门回归祖国的日子是1999年12月20日。It was the collge students who helped the injured woman to hospital是大学生们送那位妇女去医院的。问题:4. The movie was very boring and

28、many people began to leave early. By the end, most people _.A.had already leftB.were already leavingC.were already leftD.had already been leaving答案:A解析 电影很乏味，很多人早早就离开了。到电影结束前，大多数人都已走光。by的意思是“不晚于，在之前”，用于表示一种时间界限，by短语经常跟过去完成时连用。如：The car factory had turned out 10，000，000 ears by National Day这家汽车厂在国庆节以

29、前已经生产出1000万辆轿车。值得注意的是，by短语不是只能用于过去完成时句子，它作为一个普通的介词短语，并不受什么时间限制，可以与多种时态连用。如：By next Wednesday they will have finished ninety percent of the book到下星期之前，他们将完成全书的90%了。问题:5. When you come to Beijing, I can put you _ for the night.A.upB.downC.inD.out答案:A解析 你来北京，我可以为你安排住宿。put up在这儿表示“接待；为年供食宿；供膳宿”。如：We can

30、 put up ten people for the night at a pinch必要时我们可以留宿十个人。put down表示“写下；记下；控制；击败；平定；取缔”等意思。put in意为“打断；插嘴；进港；进入并作短暂停留”。put out表示“熄灭；关熄；扑灭；使忧虑；激怒；困扰；麻烦(某人)”等意思。问题:6. The children wont go there to watch the iron tower _.A.to erectB.to be erectedC.erectingD.being erected答案:D解析 那里正在竖铁塔，孩子们都去观看。本句受watch的影响

31、，空白处应填分词形式，且需要用被动式。感观动词see，feel，notice，observe，hear，find等都可以用于此种结构。再如：The driver saw the two thieves rushing out of the shop with a large bag那位司机看到两个小偷抬着一个大包从商店冲出来。 She suddenly felt something crawling up her back她突然感到有什么东西在后背上向上爬。问题:7. English words are not always spelled _.A.in the way they soundB

32、.in the way of their soundsC.as they re soundingD.the way they sound答案:D解析 英语单词不是总按它的发音拼写。选项A中way之后的引导词how不妥，应为that。选项B的意思讲不通。选项C的时态不妥，应为that。选项B的意思讲不通。选项C的时态不妥。选项D为正确答案。the way前的介词in被省略，其定语从句they sound前的引导词that也已省略，其意思是“按照它们的发音”。再如：She set her hair the way her husband liked it她把头发做成她丈夫所喜欢的样式。当way表示

33、“方式”的意思时，后面可以接to do或of doing作定语。意为“做的方式”。如：You are following the right way to do(of doing)an experiment你做实验的方式是对的。问题:8. Hydrogen is the fundamental element of the universe _ it provides the building blocks from which the other elements are produced.A.so thatB.but thatC.in thatD.provided that答案:C解析 氢

34、是宇宙中的基本元素，因为它是其他元素的基本部分。从句子结构上看，空白处前是一个完整的简单句，其后面又是一个简单句，这说明需要一个连接词来连接两个简单句。从句意上看应是一个表示原因的主从连接词。选项Aso that 是表示“目的”或“结果”的主从连接词，明显不合句意。选项Bbut that表示“要不是；若非”，也不合句意。选项Dprovided that(以为条件，是引导条件从句的主从连接词。在这四个选项中，唯有选项Cin that(=because)能引导一个表示原因的从句，为正确答案。例如：This machine differs from the other one in that it

35、is more efficient这部机器不同于另一部机器是由于前者效率高。问题:9. I would have come sooner but I _ that you were waiting.A.wouldn t knowB.didn t knowC.haven t knownD.don t know答案:B解析 我原本可早来的，但我不知道你一直在等着。本句可以看作虚拟条件句已被省略，原条件句为：If I had known that you were waiting由于前句是虚拟语气，从前后文的逻辑来看，but之后的句子应该是来陈述过去的事实的。所以应该选择didnt know。有许多

36、虚拟语气句子其虚拟条件是十分含蓄的，考生需特别注意。如：Born ten days earlier，the girl would have seen his grandfather如果小女孩早出生10天，就能见到她爷爷了。问题:10. You _ yesterday if you were really serious about your work.A.ought to have comeB.ought have comeC.would comeD.ought to be coming答案:A解析 如果你对工作真的很认真，你昨天应该来的。从语法角度看，选项B是错误的，可以排除。“ought

37、to+过去分词”形式可以表示过去某时该做的事情而没做，意思为“本来该做”，所以A为正确答案。再如：You ought to have realized how dangerous it Was to ride on ice你本该知道在冰上骑车是多么危险。选项C，貌似能构成虚拟语气，实则主从动词形式相互矛盾。选项D的意思讲不通。Section BDirections: There are 10 incomplete statements here.

41、解析 他进来的时候，迈克已经躺下了。lie“躺下”的过去分词为lain。Part Reading ComprehensionTask 1 The United Nations published a report that was called The State of World Population.
