参考答案

1.C文学必须由文字组成，就像音乐必须由声音组成。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Ceventhough：即使，纵然，尽管，引导让步状语从句；sothat：为的是，以便，结果，引导目的和结果状语从句；justas：正如，就像，引导方式状语从句；eversince：自从，引导时间状语从句。根据句意可知，选C

2.BB句意：嘈杂的噪音转移了我做饭的注意力，所以什么都烧了。词义辨析。diverted：转移（注意力）；divided：划分，分离；focused：集中，聚焦；separated：分开，分手

3.D这所学校有四十位教师，其中十位是男教师。

［考点］固定用法

【精析】Dman和woman可用在名词的前面作定语，这种用法中，man和woman的形式要由它后面的名词来决定。后面的名词是单数时，man和woman就用单数；后面的名词是复数时，man和woman就用复数。故选D

4.D他一整晚都和我一起待在家，所以他不可能去了博物馆。

［考点］情态动词

【精析】Dmusthave+过去分词表示对过去情况的肯定推测，意为一定做了……，没有mustn’thave+过去分词这一形式；needn’thave+过去分词表示过去本不必做某事而实际上却做了；shouldhave+过去分词表示过去本应该做某事而实际上没有做，其否定形式表示本不应该做某事却做了；couldn’thave+过去分词表示对过去情况的否定推测，意为不可能做了……。根据句意可知，选D

7.A当他们进入房间时，发现窗户是开着的，并且有东西被盗了。

［考点］非谓语动词

【精析】A分析句子结构并结合句意可知,空处在句中作宾语补足语。因为steal与其逻辑主语something之间为动宾关系，所以应用过去分词，表示被动意义和已完成。故选A

8.AA句意：我看到两个男人正在穿过街道。名词性从句题。分析句子结构可知，本句是主语从句,what在从句中作saw的宾语。本题容易误选C项，但本句中引导词指的是两个男人穿过街道这件事情，而不是两个男人，所以用what，而不用who

9.B［翻译］我们什么时候方便再次见面呢？

［考点］词语搭配

【精析】BItisconvenientforsb.todosth.意为某人方便做某事，应用介词for,故选B

10.A【翻译】当我们在高中的时候，我们学习了英语语法的基本知识。［考点］词义辨析Abasics:基本因素（或原理、原则、规律等），基础知识；elementary:基础的，初级的；elements:基本部分，重要部分；foundation：地基，基础。根据句意可知，选A。注意：本题有歧义，C项element作“基本原理”讲时，与basics同义，指（学科）的基本原理，基础，纲要。

11.B一完成眼下正在做的事情，我就去图书馆。

［考点］动词时态

【精析】B分析句子结构可知，句中包含了一个assoonas引导的时间状语从句。根据主句中的willgoto可知，主句为一般将来时，所以从句应遵循主将从现的原则，用一般现在时表示将来。故选B

12.B我们中的三个人将要去那里，其余的人留在这里。

［考点］主谓一致

【精析】B根据句意可知，therest在此处表示的是其余的人，其后应用复数形式，所以排除A、C项。另外，由前面分句中的willgo可知，此处应用aretodo形式，表现一般将来。故选B

13.C她喜欢因一些琐碎的事和邻居争吵。

［考点］词语搭配

【精析】Cquarrelwithsb.是固定搭配，意为和某人争吵。quarrelaboutsth.是固定搭配，意为因某事争吵。故选C
