参考答案

1.A

2.B解析：theeducationsystem是主语，谓语动词应用单数；thedesiredresults意为“期望的结果”。

3.C

4.C解析：notonly…butalso连接主语时，谓语动词根据就近原则由butalso后的成分来决定。TomandMary是两个人，所以动词用复数形式。

5.Blaunch为“发射”讲；其余为干扰项。

6.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。给她脸上浇些水，或许她会醒过来。本题考查词组辨析。comeround：过访，绕道而来，苏醒过来；comeback：回来，恢复；comeagain：再说一遍，重复一遍；comeout：出来，传出。

7.B

8.C解析：副词so置于句首，句子应该用倒装语序，某人受伤用sb.beinjured来表示，故答案为C。

9.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做过某事。注意区别forgettodosth。忘了而没有做某事。

10.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意为“特别地”。

11.A

12.D解析：本题考查动词搭配。doone'shomework“做作业”；makemistakes“犯错误”。句意为：做作业，还要保证别犯错误。

13.Bsetout意为“出发，动身”。

14.C解析：本题考查词义的辨别。rise出现，put放下，raise提起，arise升高。

15.A解析：favor：帮助，一般用domeafavor；good：好处；help不与do搭配：kindness：善良。故选A。

16.B解析：表示否定的副词前置于句首，句子需要不完全倒装，即助动词提前。其余选项均可排除。除Notuntil外还有never，seldom，rarely，seldom，no，little，hardly，innotime等否定副词或结构放在句首时，句子需要部分倒装。

17.C

18.B解析：takemeasures意思为“采取措施”，本句应用被动语态。

19.A解析：while意为“虽然”；as意为“因为”；if意为“如果”；since意为“因为”。根据题意选A。

20.B考查反义疑问句。原句应是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反义疑问句的规则是陈述部分是肯定式，疑问部分应是否定式。Wouldthink表示推测，疑问部分也应选择would。选项B是正确的。【句子大意】你难道还认为他已经忘掉了，是吗?

21.我买下了那座房子从那里我可观赏长江大桥的美景。我买下了那座房子，从那里我可观赏长江大桥的美景。
