B.poisonous C。negative D.neutral【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意:Nadia，Bronx动物园里的一只四岁的雌性马来虎，新型冠状病毒检测为阳性。这是美国第一例已知的人对动物的传播。A。positive阳性的；B。poisonous有毒的；C.negative否认的；D.neutral中立的.根据下文“human-to—animaltransmission”可知，Nadia感染了新型冠状病毒，检测为阳性.故选A.2.LiZiqi,theChineseinternetcelebrity,isfamousforhervideos________sheperformstheworkofafarmerwiththegraceofafairy.A.which B。where C.that D.when【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：李子柒，中国网络名人，因她的视频而闻名，在视频里,她以仙女的优雅姿态展现了一个农民的工作。分析句子可知，句子“________sheperformstheworkofafarmerwiththegraceofafairy.”修饰空前的名词hervideos，因此，是定语从句，hervideos是先行词，先行词代入从句后发现在从句中做地点状语。故选B.【点睛】担当定语功能的句子称为定语从句。被定语从句修饰的名词或代词等称为先行词，先行词一般出现在定语从句之前。有时先行词是整个句子。关系词可以指代先行词,因此在从句中不能再重复先行词或指先行词的代词。关系副词where在从句中指代的地点名词，可以是表示具体地点的名词，也可以是表示模糊地点或抽象地点的名词,在从句中作地点状语。3.It_______befreezingcoldsometimesinspringinthesouth。It'scalledcoldinthelatespring。A。shall B.will C。may D.can【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查情态动词.句意：南方的春天可能是极冷的，这被称作倒春寒。A。shall用于第二第三人称，表示说话人给对方的许诺、命令等;B.will表示规律性的“注定会”；C。may可能，表示推测；D。can可能会，表示逻辑上的可能性,多用于肯定句。由常识可知，倒春寒现象是一种可能发生的情况，是逻辑上的一种可能性，不是推测出来的。故选D。4.Theoilgianthasconfirmeditisplanningtolistonthestockexchangein_______couldbetheworld’sbiggestinitialpublicoffering。A。that B.which C.what D.how【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查宾语从句。句意：这家石油巨头已经证实,它计划在证券交易所上市，这可能是世界上最大的首次公开发行。分析句子成分可知，in是介词,后接宾语，因此“_______couldbetheworld’sbiggestinitialpublicoffering.”是宾语从句,而从句中缺少主语，4个选项中只有what符合条件。故选C。【点睛】引导名词性从句的连接词可分为三类：单纯连词、连接代词、连接副词。1.单纯连词：that、whether/if在从句中不充当任何成分，只起连接从句的功能.that没有实际意义,而whether/if有“是否”的意义。2。连接代词：what、which、who等在从句中既做特定的成分（如主语、宾语等），又有具体的含义，不能省略。3。连接副词：when、how、where等在句中做状语,有具体含义，不可省略。5.Withtheirpatienceandefforts，ChrisandTimsuccessfullydevelopeda____ofartificialbreeding（人工繁殖）andnaturalreproduction.Acollection B。combination C。system D.strategy【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：在他们的耐心和努力下，克里斯和蒂姆成功地将人工繁殖和自然繁殖结合起来。A.collection收藏;B.combination结合；C.system系统；D。strategy策略.根据下文提到的两种繁殖方式“artificialbreeding(人工繁殖）andnaturalreproduction”及句中的关键词“efforts”、“successfully”，结合语境可知,应该是成功地将两种方式结合起来.故选B。6.Forlargeproducers，_______theylostsomepigstothedisease,pricesaresohighnowthattheyarestillearningmuchmorethanbefore.A。inthat B.incase C。evenif D.asif【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查状语从句的从属连词。句意:对于大型养猪户来说，即使他们因为猪瘟损失了一些猪,但价格是如此之高，以至于他们仍然比以前赚得多。A.inthat因为，由于，既然；B。incase以防万一；C.evenif即使，尽管；D。asif似乎，好像。前一句说“theylostsomepigs”，后一句说“theyarestillearningmuchmorethanbefore"，前后两个句子之间语义转折,因此用evenif引导让步状语从句.故选C项.7。Farfrom_______consumershighprices，manyoftheseservicesarefree（userspay，ineffect，byhandingoveryetmoredata。）A。tocharge B。charging C.tohavecharged D.charge【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：这些服务非但没有向消费者收取高昂的费用，反而有许多是免费的（实际上，用户通过提供更多的数据来付费).此处from为介词，介词+动名词,故选B。8.______moneyspent，China’s"SinglesDay”ofconsumptionhasalreadyovershadowedpredictionsofThanksgiving，BlackFridayandCyberMonday-combined。A.Inhonorof

B.breakingout C.puttingout D。turningout【答案】D【解析】【分析】【详解】考查动词短语辨析.句意:从那时起，我们已经举办了五场演出，有250人参加。A。stickingout突出；B.breakingout爆发;C。puttingout扑灭;D.turningout出席,参加.根据句意及常识可知,此处指有250人参加了这五场演出。故选D.11.Thecustomsofficerasked,“Doyouhaveanythingto_______?"“Nothing。"Ianswered。A。delete B.declare C.decline D.deliver【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查动词词义辨析.句意：海关官员问：“你有什么要申报的吗？”“没什么。"我回答。A。delete删除；B.declare宣布，申报，声明；C。decline拒绝，下降；D.deliver投递。根据句意和语境可知，对话发生在海关,因此海关官员询问对方有没有需要申报以通关。故选B。12."Since2008,emergingeconomiesincludingChina_______two-thirdsoftherealwealthgain，”theinvestmentbanksaidinablogpost。A.accountsfor B。hasaccountedfor C.haveaccountedfor

B.admitting;isC。admitted;are D。tobeadmitted；is【答案】C【解析】考查倒装句和非谓语动词。句意：正如我们老师经常所说，考入重点大学的那些学生是永远不会半途而废的人。第一个空考查短语beadmittedto（被录取）可以排除B项，题干是完全倒装结构,正常语序是thosewho…areadmittedtokeyuniversities，得知第二个空是复数谓语动词,可以排除D项，A项的being是多余的，也可以被排出，故选C。【名师点睛】非谓语动词使用条件：一个句子当中，已经存在一个主句（谓语动词）,又没有连词的情况下，还有别的动词出现时。而题干中没有谓语动词，得知不能填非谓语动词，当表示强调时，可以把表语提前,构成完全倒装结构。表语的“现在分词/过去分词/+形容词/+系动词+主语”结构须用完全倒装.例如：PresentatthemeetingwereProfessorWhite,ProfessorSmithandother。14.Duetoashortageofmedicalsuppliesinasevereepidemicsituation,ifyouofferamasktosomeone,youmustbe______.A。aJonah
