Answer:hastaught

Explanation:本题考查时态。题干的意思是：“自从三年前以来，她_____我们英语。”根据句意可知，本句的时间状语为“sincethreeyearsago”，表示从过去某一时间点开始，一直持续到现在，并可能继续持续下去，所以本句的时态为现在完成时，其结构为“have/has+done”。主语“she”为第三人称单数，所以助动词应选“has”，谓语动词“teach”的过去分词形式为“taught”，所以本题的空白处应为“hastaught”。2、I’mafraidthatIcan’tfinishtheworkbymyself.Ineedyour_______(help).

Answer:help

Explanation:本题考查名词的用法。题干的意思是：“我恐怕我自己不能完成这个工作。我需要你的_____。”根据句意可知，句子空白处需要一个名词作“need”的宾语，“help”有两种词性，名词和动词，当作为动词时，意思为“帮助”，作为名词时，意思为“帮助”或“帮助者”。本题中，句子空白处前已有“your”作为定语修饰，其后应该接名词，“yourhelp”表示“你的帮助”，符合句意和语法，所以本题答案是“help”。3、Thegirlisvery________(help)andsheoftenhelpsherclassmateswiththeirhomework.

Answer:helpful

Explanation:本题考查形容词的用法。题干的意思是：“这个女孩非常_____，她经常帮助她的同学做作业。”根据句意和句子结构可知，空格处需要填一个形容词来修饰主语“Thegirl”，且该形容词能表达“乐于助人的”这一含义。而“help”是动词，其形容词形式是“helpful”，意为“乐于助人的”，符合语境，所以答案是“helpful”。4、Mymotheroftentellsmetoeatmorevegetablesandfruittokeep________(health).

Answer:healthy

Explanation:本题考查形容词的用法。题干的意思是：“我妈妈经常告诉我多吃蔬菜和水果来保持_____。”根据句意和句子结构可知，空格处需要填一个形容词来作“keep”的表语，表示“保持某种状态”。而“health”是名词，意为“健康”，其形容词形式是“healthy”，意为“健康的”，符合语境，所以答案是“healthy”。5、I’msorryIhavenoidea______themuseumisopentoday.

Answer:whether

Explanation:Thisquestiontestsknowledgeofsubordinateclauses,specificallywhetherclauses.Thesentenceisaskingaboutthepossibilityoruncertaintyofthemuseumbeingopentoday.“Whether”isusedtointroduceaclauseofdoubtoruncertainty,makingittheappropriatewordtofillintheblank.6、They_______theGreatWallifit_______tomorrow.

Answer:willvisit;doesn’train

Explanation:Thisquestiontestsconditionalsentences,specificallyafirstconditional.Thefirstblankrequiresthemainclause’sverbform,whichshouldbethefuturetense(“willvisit”)becausetheconditionisstatedinthepresenttense(“ifitdoesn’train”).Thesecondblankrequirestheverbformfortheconditionalclause,whichshouldbethepresentsimpletensenegated(“doesn’train”)toexpressapossibleconditioninthefuture.7、Thebookis_______usefulonethatIwanttoreaditagain.A.soaB.suchaC.asoD.asuch

Answer:B

Explanation:本题考查的是so和such的区别及用法。题干的意思是：“这本书是_____有用的书，以至于我想再读一遍。”so是副词，修饰形容词或副词；such是形容词，修饰名词。题干中的“one”是一个可数名词单数形式，前面需要用形容词来修饰，所以应该使用“such”，排除选项A和C。又因为“such”修饰单数名词时，结构为“such+a/an+单数可数名词”，所以本题正确选项是B。8、Ifyoudon’tknowthewaytothemuseum,youcanaskthepoliceman_______theway.A.onB.ofC.aboutD.for

Answer:C

Explanation:本题考查的是介词的用法。题干的意思是：“如果你不知道去博物馆的路，你可以问警察_____路。”askon意为“在……上问”，通常用于询问某个平台或媒体上的信息，不适用于此句；askof表示“向……要求”，通常用于请求某人做某事或提供某物，不符合句意；askabout意为“询问关于……的情况”，符合本句语义，表示询问关于路的情况；askfor意为“请求，要求”，通常用于请求得到某物或某种服务，也不符合句意。因此，本题的正确答案是C。9、Idon’tknowhowto________(处理)withthisproblem.Answer:dealExplanation:句子中使用了固定短语”dealwith”，意为”处理，应付”，后接名词或代词作为宾语。由于”howto”后需要接动词原形构成不定式短语作宾语，所以填”deal”。10、Thebookonthetableis________(one)ofmyfavoritebooks.Answer:oneExplanation:在英语中，“one”可以用作序数词，表示”第一”，但在这种情况下，它通常与定冠词”the”连用，表示”第一个”；然而，当”one”用作不定代词时，表示”一个”，用来代替前面提到的可数名词单数或不可数名词，以避免重复。在此句中，“one”作为不定代词，指代前面提到的”book”，意为”这本书是我最喜欢的书之一”，所以填”one”。注意，虽然题目中可能意图考查”first”的用法，但在此上下文中，“first”并不适用，因为它会改变句子的原意。五、简答题（本大题有5小题，每小题2分，共10分）Question:Whatisthepresentcontinuoustenseusedfor?Givetwoexamples.Answer:Thepresentcontinuoustenseisusedtodescribeanactionthatishappeningatthemomentofspeakingoranactionthatisplannedorarrangedforthenearfuture.Examples:“IamstudyingEnglishnow.”(Actionhappeningatthemoment)“Wearemeetingattheparktomorrowafternoon.”(Actionplannedforthenearfuture)Explanation:Thepresentcontinuoustenseisformedbyusingthepresenttenseoftheverb‘tobe’(am,is,are)followedbythepresentparticipleformofthemainverb(endingin-ing).Itisusedtoexpressongoingactionsoreventsandalsototalkaboutarrangementsorplansfortheimmediatefuture.Question:Whatisthedifferencebetween‘a’and‘an’inEnglish?Provideanexampleforeach.Answer:Thedifferencebetween‘a’and‘an’liesinthesoundthatfollowsthem.‘A’isusedbeforewordsthatstartwithaconsonantsound,while‘an’isusedbeforewordsthatstartwithavowelsound.Examples:“Ihaveabook.”(Consonantsound‘b’follows‘a’)“Sheisanartist.”(Vowelsound‘a’follows‘an’)Explanation:Thechoicebetween‘a’and‘an’isbasedonthepronunciationofthefollowingword,notjustitsspelling.Forinstance,‘university’startswitha‘u’butispronouncedwithaconsonantsound,sowesay“auniversity.”Similarly,‘hour’startswithan‘h’butispronouncedwithavowelsound,butsincethe‘h’issilent,wewouldstilluse“anhour.”3、Question:
