六、作文(1题)96.假设你的朋友叫杨立，是优秀学生。校报请你写一篇介绍他的短文。他的基本情况是：现在读高二，是班长，是全班学习最好的;最喜欢学习英语和数学;爱好体育，课余常踢足球，还是学校游泳队队员;经常帮助别人。注意：(1)基本情況不可遺漏;(2)要有标题;(3)词数为100左右。

参考答案

1.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。

2.B

3.D

4.A

5.Blaunch为“发射”讲；其余为干扰项。

6.B

7.B解析：本题考查固定搭配。havetrouble(in)doingsth.“做某事有困难”。句意为：有时孩子们在分清故事和现实方面会有困难，相信故事中的事确实存在。

8.B

9.Bsetout意为“出发，动身”。

10.A本句考查两个并列句之间的连接的词。题干的意思是：“气球能够浮在空气中正如船能够浮在海面上一样。”在四个选项中，只有A项的justas有“正如，犹如”的意思。故选A。

11.A

12.D解析：which修饰非限定性定语从句，指代前边一句话。本题涉及句法知识——简单句、并列句和复合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(简单句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(复合句)

13.C

14.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。

15.C

16.D

17.D

18.D

19.D解析：本题测试形容词辨析。四个选项的意思分别是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正义的”，“仅仅的”。根据句意，D项正确。本句大意为：他仅仅把它作为一个细节来描述，而我却认为它是这个计划中最重要的部分。

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

21.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。

22.C解析：本题考查倒装虚拟语气用法。本句是表示与将来事实相反，所以从句用wereto形式。句意为：如果他今天出发的话，他就会在星期五以前到达那里。

23.B解析：encourage：鼓励、鼓舞；discourage：使泄气；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根据句意只有选B。

24.D本题考查时态。

【应试指导】句意：当你写信回家的时候，请代我向你的妻子问好。在时间状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时。

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

26.B

27.C

28.D解析：上句责备玛丽应该做作业而不是坐到那儿看电视，下句是玛丽对妈妈责备的一种辩解：“你说过电视是有教育意义的。”所以D项正确。

29.D

30.A解析：此题考查反意疑问句的用法。主句为祈使句，因此其反意疑问句用willyou。

31.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。

32.C解析：句子的前半部分是主语从句，主语从句中的谓语动词时态应根据句意而定。

33.A解析：本题考虚拟语气在名词性从句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the广引导的从句中，谓语动词应用“should+认”，should可以省去，再结合语态，故A项正确。本句大意为：他们要求所有的必要文件都必须在月底之前交到校长办公室。

34.D

35.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意为“特别地”。

36.C

37.Dapplyto应用；applyfor申请

38.B

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

40.A【句子大意】新打字机的价格是二手货的三倍。

41.B解析：cuts“裁减”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱点”；imports“进口”，故正确选项为B。

42.A本题考查祈使句型：

【应试指导】句意：Mary，到这里来，其余的人待在原处。根据句子的结构可判断出这是个祈使句。所以要用动词原形开头。Mary在句中不是

主语，而是“呼语”。

43.D

44.D解析：从句中的问句主谓不倒装。从句的时态随主句。我想知道那辆车的价格。

45.D

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

47.A解析：反问疑问句的陈述部分是肯定式时，疑问部分用否定式。以letme或letus起始的反问疑问句，疑问部分用willyou或won'tyou，所以选项A是正确的。

48.C所有的学生都去看了昨天的魔术表演。它太令人不可思议了。这里主要考查的是动词的现在分词和过去分词的不同用法。Sth．bedoing表示某一事物令人怎么样。Sb．bedone表示某人处于某种状态。例：Theletteristouching．这封信令人感动。

Iammoved．我很感动。

49.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。

50.A解析：shape意为“(女人的)姿态，身段”；form意为“形状，形态”；appearance意为“外表，样子”；body意为“身体”。由题意知应选A。

51.we"11gotoarestaurantforsupper

52.meetingattheentrance

53.Howareyoudoing/Howareyou

54.D

55.Cyouwillknowallofourguests

Mr．Lee：我们很高兴。聚会是什么形式?

Walt：我们总是开正式的宴会。

Mr．Lee：我想我们会很乐意参加，尤其是我们的夫人们。

Walt：另外还有四对夫妇也来。所以我们会有很有趣的聊天。

Mr．Lee：我们肯定会很愉快。其他的夫妇也是咱们公司的吗?

Walt：是的。您认识他们所有的人。

Mr．Lee：我会注意查收你们发的邀请函。你的饭局听起来很不错。

56.G

57.GI'dratherhaveasmallwedding

58.A

59.下面是问店员这件衣服的价钱，可见商品上没有价签。选项F是正确的。

60.Whattime(/When)doesitstart(/begin)

61.B获胜者成为国家英雄。

62.A理解推断题。此处表示“在南部已经建立了许多办公室和工厂”，haveopened符合题意。

63.C固定搭配题。

【应试指导】takeaplane坐飞机．

64.D解析：inthosedays为一短语，意思是“在过去的那些日子里”。intheirdays意思是“在他们那个时代”。past和last常用在inthelast/pastweek(month，year)中，指“在过去的一个星期/月/年中”，或是用在inthelast/past10years“在过去的10年中”这样的短语中。

65.B解析：从结构上四个名词都可以。但根据上下guards最合适。

66.C解析：这里考查的是语态和时态，种植园的开垦应是有人来做的，因此，语态应为被动态。按照后半句的意思，当时人手不够，说明是在做这件事的时候，应当是现在进行时。这个事件发生在过去，因此应用被动语态的过去进行时。选项C是正确的。

67.B本题考查根据上下文选择合适的词。该句要表达的意思是：在高速公路上行车，需要保持一个恒定的速度行驶。requiresbtodosth.意为“要求某人做……”，被动语态为berequiredtodosth。故本题选择B。

68.C介词by这里意为“依靠、依赖”。

69.A通过上句话中的grown—ups，可推断出本题的答案应是children。

70.A解析：根据句意“要实现控制新生儿数量这个目标不容易”，故只能选A。
