山西省运城市盐湖第二中学高三英语上学期期末试题含解析一、选择题1.---Bettergetdowntoyourwork．Jack．

---__________．A．It’smypleasure B．SuityourselfC．Mindyourownbusiness D．You’rewelcome参考答案：C2.______andshortofbreath,AndyandRubywerethefirsttoreachthetopofMountTai.A.Tobetried

B.TiredC.TiringD.Beingtired

参考答案：B解析：考查形容词作状语的用法。该句的意思是：尽管累并且喘不过来气，但是AndyandRuby是最早到达泰山山顶的人。形容词可以作状语表示伴随，原因或让步等关系。在该题中形容词作状语是表示让步的，可以恢复为thoughtheyweretiredandshortofbreath，然后在进行省略。该题容易误选D。要注意的是形容词作状语时其前不能加being。3.—I’minterestedinthatbeautifulMP4player.Howmuchdoyouchargeforit?—$150.Andit’softhevalue.—Well,_____,butIcan’taffordit.Thankyouanyway.A.pleaselowertheprice

D．becamethechildren参考答案：B9.AllthestudentsthinkthenewEnglishteacheriswarmand,sotheymakefriendswithhersoon.A.accessible B.available C.convenient D.responsible参考答案：A考查形容词辨析。句意:所有学生都认为新英语老师既热心又平易近人,所以他们很快就与她成为朋友了。根据句意应选择accessible表示"平易近人的,好相处的"。available"可得到的,有空的";convenient"方便的";responsible"负责任的"。10.(2015·天津)__________fortwodays,Stevemanagedtofinishhisreportonschedule.A.Towork B.WorkedC.Tobeworking D.Havingworked参考答案：D【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：工作了两天，Steve成功的按时完成了他的报告。句中的逻辑主语为Steve，与work之间为主动关系，故用现在分词，这里用havingworked，表示动作的先后性。故选D。11.—
