PopularityoftheChineseLanguage

（1）世界上越来越多的人开始学习汉语；

（2）产生这一现象的原因；

（3）你的看法

参考答案

1.D根据该规定，要求对系统进行检查以确保其处于良好状态。

［考点］动词时态和语态

【精析】D根据句意和从句中的are可知，主句应用一般现在时。又因inspections和demand之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以应用一般现在时的被动语态，即谓语动词用am/is/are+过去分词的形式。故选D

2.A他的父母上周去世了，所以这个孩子没有人照顾。

［考点］非谓语动词

【精析】A分析句子结构可知，逗号后面的句子结构完整，逗号前后两部分没有连接词连接，所以逗号前应是独立主格结构，所以空处应用非谓语动词。die和其逻辑主语Hisparents之间是主谓关系，而且die所表示的动作发生在谓语动词所表示的动作之前，所以此处应用现在分词的完成式。故选A

3.C我弟弟很喜欢吃，但他对吃的食物不是很挑剔。

［考点］词语搭配

【精析】Cbeparticularabout意为讲究，对……挑剔，为固定搭配

4.B简已为生物考试做了精心的准备，以确保她能够一次性通过。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Bintention：意图，打算；attempt：尝试，试图；purpose：目的；desire：渴望，愿望。onone’sfirstattempt为固定用法，意为在某人的第一次尝试中。故选B

5.C不久前，一个跟我很熟的朋友卷入了一场事故中。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Cberelatedto：与……有关；beincludedin：包含于……中；beinvolvedin：被卷入……中；besubjectedto：经受，遭受。根据句意可知，选C

6.C无论你提什么建议，他都将对此置之不理。

［考点］状语从句

【精析】C

7.C现今由于家电，做家务事变得容易多了。

［考点］词义辨析

8.A读完这本书之后，请你把它放回原处。

［考点］状语从句

【精析】A分析句子结构可知，空处引导了一个地点状语从句。再根据句意可知，从句中缺少的是地点状语，所以应用where引导。which,what,that均不能引导地点状语从句。故选A

9.A这名足球运动员一直希望能尽快地调到另一个队。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Atransfer：转移，转职，调动，transferto意为转移到，调往；transport：运输，交通；transplant：移植，迁移；transact：交易，办理。根据句意可知，选A

10.D如果没有你的善良和帮助，我就不会取得这么多的成就。

［考点］虚拟语气

【精析】D根据句意可知，本句中Without引出表示虚拟条件的成分，表示对过去发生事情的假设，句子的谓语动词应用would/could/should/mighthave+过去分词的形式。故选D

11.D你知道她现在在大学里主修什么科目吗？词语搭配题。majorinsth.是固定搭配，意为主修……科目

12.AA句意：这个想法听起来不错,但是实际上行得通吗?词语搭配题。inpractice意为在实践中,实际上；inplace意为在适当的位置；inadvance意为提前。因此A最符合题意

13.DDdiscuss:讨论，商议；catch:抓住；support:支持，支撑；differ:（在观点、意见、信仰等方面）持不同看法，持异议。根据句意可知，选D

14.C句意：当他被警察质询时，他否认自己在超市偷了东西。本题考查的是非谓语动词，动词deny只能用动名词作宾语，类似的还有appreciate,avoid,escape等，另外主语theman与动词steal之间为主谓关系，应用主动形式，因此选项C符合题意

15.C他越来越专注于自己的工作，几乎到了忘记吃饭的程度。

［考点］词语搭配

【精析】Ctosuchanextentthat…为固定搭配，意为到这种程度以至于……。另外，such…that…（如此……以至于）引导结果状语从句，that在从句中不作任何成分，口语中可以省略。故选C

16.C
