2025年湘西民族职业技术学院高职单招高职单招英语2016-2024历年频考点试题含答案解析（图片大小可自由调整）一、单选题(共35题)1、Theywouldn’tagreetosellthehousetousatthesameprice_____theyhadpromised,_____wasratherdisappointing.

(1分)A、which;asB、as;thatC、as;whichD、that;that正确答案选项：参考答案：C解析考查定语从句，第一个空as引导定语从句，因为先行词前面，有thesame.第二个空,which引导非限定性定语从句，代替前文的内容。句意：他们不愿以要他们答应的同样价格把房子买给我们，这让我们很失望。选C。

2、Look!（）theboyiswhenheseesthesesmartrobots!(1分)A、HowexcitingB、WhatanexcitedC、HowexcitedD、Whatanexciting正确答案选项：参考答案：C解析考查感叹句。句意为：“看!那个男孩看到这些智能机器人时他是多么的激动!”感叹句中，感叹名词用what,感叹形容词或副词用how;感叹形容词或副词时，常用“How+形容词/副词十主语+谓语!”来表示。excited为形容词，意为“感动的；激动的”用来修饰人；exciting为形容词，意为“令人兴奋的；令人激动的”用来修饰事物。分析句子结构可知，该句感叹形容词，且形容词用来修饰人，所以用how来感叹。故选C。

3、Inmostwesterncountries,aladyisoftenunhappyifsheisasked___.

(1分)A、whetherhasshegotmarriedB、howoldissheC、whereshecomesfromD、howmuchsheweighs正确答案选项：参考答案：D解析在大多数西方国家，如果一位女士被问到体重有多重，她通常会感到不高兴。易错点：这里主要考察句子是否正确，B的话应该是howold

sheis才对。根据aladyusualydoesntliketobeasked__，并结合选项可知，后面是一个宾语从句，宾语从句中应该用陈述语序，即主语＋谓语，所以排除A和B．根据文化常识，可知英国人不喜欢谈个人隐私问题，故选：D。点评：主要考查宾语从句，在做此类题目时，应该注意宾语从句的连接词，以及宾语从句的时态和语序问题，掌握好这几点，是做好此类题目的关键，本题主要考查宾语从句的语序和文化常识．

30、Mikeusedtobeatopstudent,buthe（）behindsincehelosthimselfincomputergames.(1分)A、fellB、hasfallenC、wasD、hasbeen正确答案选项：参考答案：D解析查现在完成时。句意为：“Mike过去是一个优等生，但是自从沉迷于电脑游戏后就落后了。”句中since引导的是时间状语从句，从句用一般过去时，主句用现在完成时，所以排除A和C;fall为短暂性动词，当句中有since,for等表示一段时间的时间状语时，要把瞬间动作改为持续性动作，所以应用bebehind。故选D。

(1分)A、giveanaccountforB、accountforC、takeaccountofD、takeintoaccount正确答案选项：参考答案：B解析

考查动词短语辨析。句意：没有人能解释实验的失败，因为起初一切都进行得很顺利。Agiveanaccountfor叙述，说明；Baccountfor解释，说明……的原因；Ctakeaccountof和Dakeintoaccount的意思均为考虑到，顾及。根据thefailureoftheexperiment得知，accountfor说明实验失败的原因。故选B。
