参考答案

1.C

2.B

3.Dapplyto应用；applyfor申请

4.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。

5.C

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

7.B解析：此处是对将来情况的假设。虚拟条件句的谓语部分为should，had或were时，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在从句的主语之前，构成主谓部分倒装。

8.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。

9.C

10.D

11.A

12.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。

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

14.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。

15.D

16.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意为“特别地”。

17.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。

18.D

19.A解析：根据上文提到“findone”，故下文中也应填one，表示泛指。

20.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。

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

22.C解析：much用在句中修饰比较级better。

23.B

24.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。

25.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?

26.D

27.B解析：本题考查固定搭配的用法。当否定词位于句前时，得出结论应用reach/achievein/arriveatconclusion，故选B。

28.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)

29.B

30.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。

31.Blaunch为“发射”讲；其余为干扰项。

32.B

33.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。

34.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。

35.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。

36.C

37.C

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

39.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。

40.Bsetout意为“出发，动身”。

41.B

42.C

43.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。

44.A

45.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。

46.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。

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

48.D

49.A

50.D

51.F

52.E

53.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。

54.G56.G

55.D

56.G

57.D

58.C

59.D

60.E

61.D词义辨析题此处表示“服用安眠药是一个短期策略”，strategy意为“策略”，符合题意。object目标；system体系；result结果。

62.A解析：前文说人们称JohnChapman为“苹果种子约翰”。可见他在美国的很多地方都播撒了苹果的种子。所以应选多，不应选少。“美国的很多区域”是不可数名词。

63.B解析：本题属分析、推理题。那位愤怒的妇女是在和卖给他火车票的Harry吵。

64.D29．答案为D

此题主语为speaker，且受定语从句的限定，unable“不能的，不会的”，符合句意。指人时，obscure“默默无闻的”；difficult“不易相处的”；impossible“无法忍受的”，不符句意。

65.D这里指苹果里面的籽。苹果成熟之后，里面的籽就成了种子。

66.C解析：本题是词汇题，考查“like”的介词用法，“像，以……的典型方式”，应该是“be+like”，故选C。

67.B见上一条。

68.B解析：屏住呼吸。catchone'sbreath意为“屏住呼吸”。

69.B根据紧接着的国家名称的提示可知是指将英语作为母语的人数。

70.B解析：callfor表“要求”。

71.有些科学家对人为什么要做梦梦见什么和梦意味着什么做了专门的研究。有些科学家对人为什么要做梦，梦见什么和梦意味着什么做了专门的研究。
