完成式。

A^across

B>over

C、between

D、in

55、Hetookmebyarm.

A、her

B、a

C、/

D、the

标准答案：D

知识点解析：冠词题。在汉语中物主代词经常被省掉，但在英语中一般不省。可是

这个句型是个例外，要用ihe。一般句子中出现受伤、患病、击打、拉等词的时

候，不用代词而用ihe表示身体的特定的部位。

smile,letalone.

A、by,laugh

with,laughing

C、through,tolaugh

D、by,tolaugh

pitythemosthumorous,intelligentandbeautifulwomaninthecompany.

A^toinvite

B、nottoinvite

C、tohaveinvited

D、nottohaveinvited

标准答案：D

知识点解析：不定式的否定用法题。让是形式宾语，真正的宾语是不定式结构。用

完成时不定式表示已经做过的事情，如果要表示否定的意思，则not应该放在不定

式结构的前面。

58、Wearelongingfortheworldpeaceful.

A、remain

B、remained

C、remaining

D^toremain

标准答案：D

知识点解析：固定用法题。在固定词组longfor后面的名词world和不定式to

remainpeaceful构成了复合宾语。此类动词词组后面用名词和不定式共同构成宾语

的还有:waitfor,prevailupon,countupon,votefor»relyon,callon,depend

on,carefor等，这种句子看时以被动形式出现，后面的不定式不变，如：Whocan

bedependedontocarryoutthisproject?

59>Goodadviceisprice.

A、over

beyond

C、above

D、top

标准答案：B

知识点解析：介词辨析题。此句中beyond是“超出”的意思，beyondprice意为“宝

贵的，无价的”。

60、eachotherfor10years,theydecidedtomeetthisyear.

A、Nothavingseen

B、Havingnotseen

C^Noseeing

D^Seeingnot

标准答案：A

知识点解析：分词短语的否定形式题。分词短语的否定形式是在其前加not,所以

B、D两项不对；又因分词短语表示的动作发生于谓语动词之前，所以不能用not

seeingo

61、Itisquitenecessaryforhimhisresponsibilitiesconstantly.

A^toberemindedon

B、toremindabout

C、toberemindedof

D、toberemindedabout

标准答案：C

知识点解析：不定式的语态和时态题。it是形式主语，forhim和不定式共同构成复

合主语，有被动的逻辑关系，forhim中的him是remind的逻辑宾语，所以不定式

中用动词的被动式。

62、helovestraveling,hedoesnotwanttotravelalone.

A、Asmuch

B、Muchthough

C、Muchas

D^As

标准答案：C

知识点解析：让步状语从句题。从句是主语加及物动词或者不及物动词的句子中，

出现Muchas的结构较多，强调从句中的谓语，相当于though…verymuch。此句

可以还原成；Thoughhelovestravelingverymuch,hedocsnotwanttotravel

alone.有时候可能会见到有人用选项B,但是这样的说法不正规。

63、Thelittleboycameintotheroomafterplayingfootballfor2hours,hisface

withsweat.

A、drips

dripped

C、wasdripped

D、dripping

标准答案：D

知识点解析：独立主格结构题。此句的完整句式是：Thelittleboycameintothe

roomafterplayingfootballfor2hoursandhisfacedrippedwithsweat.省连词and,

然后根据后句的主语和谓语是主动的关系，把谓语动词drip的过去式变成现在分

词dripping就把后半句话变成了独立主格结构。

64、Justtakesuchbooksareneededforteachingthefreshmen.

A、that

which

C、as

D、what

标准答案：C

知识点解析：定语从句题。as既可以作连词，又可以作代词，在此句中引导定语

从句。此句必须用as引导定语从句，而不用that或者which是因为要和修饰限定

先行词books的代词such连用。

65、PeterfeltveryguiltyfbrnotbeingabletoreunitewithhisfamilyonChristmasEve,

sohedecidedtoHewantedtoworktillmidnight.

A^workitover

B、workitout

C、workitoff

D、workitup

知识点解析：动词词组搭配题。workoff意为“通过工作或努力除掉”，如：work

offadebt（用工作清偿债务）；workover意为“检查，重做"：workout意为“找到解

答，作出”;workup意为“逐步建立，鼓励

66、Therewasastonnoutsideanditwashardtowalk,soyou'dbetterstay

inside.

A、furious

B、infuriated

C、cross

D、annoyed

标准答案：A

知识点解析：形容词辨析题。infuriated强调“狂怒，暴怒"，cross语气没有

infuriated强烈，而annoyed则更加强调”（受到他人的干扰等而）不高兴”。这三个词

都只能用于指“人而furious不但可以指“人”也可以指“程度上的强烈”，故A正

确。

67、TheonlybeforehimwhichhefelthimselftobeincapableOfcontemplating

wastheprospectofleavingEmily.

A、outlook

B、prospect

C、attitude

D^view

标准答案：B

意思是“景色,观点，视野”，往往比较抽象,如：outlookonlife（人生观）；attitude

意思是“姿势，态度”；view意思是“景色，观点”。

80Thephrase"sinequanon"inLine1,Para.5possiblymeans.

A^theessentialelements

thepremise

C、thecontribution

D^theadvantage

标准答案：A、

知识点解析：语义理解题。根据第四段最后一句和第五段第一句可知，Mr.Starr

把基础设施的建设、农业的发展、铁路公路的建设、学校的建立等等归结为源于

水，水是任何文明产生的必不可少的条件，所以A为正确答案。选项C和D不符

合题意，予以排除。选顼B属过度推理。

81、WhichoneofthefollowingisNOTthecharacteristicofthebook?

A、Thedistributionalimbalanceofeachofthepart.

B、Thechaoticarrangementanddesignofthestructure.

C^Theimproperselectionofsomematerials.

D、Ihecautiousviewandattitudeofthewriter.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：事实细节题。根据文章第七段第二句话可以排除A；根据第六段第

四句话可以排除C根据第二段第一句和最后一段第一句话可排除Do根据第六段

前两句话可知，本文作者还是比较赞赏文章不拘泥于时间顺序，按照主题进行结构

安排。

82、WhatisthemostadversepotentialproblemforthedevelopmentofCalifornia?

A、Theresidentsarehypocritical,reluctanttofacethereality.

B、Thereexistsomeelementsofpoliticalinstability.

C、Themeritsanddemeritsco-exist.

D、Economiccrisisandtheharshconditionsinfront.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：推理判断题。第七段第三句话说作者提出了大多数美国人不愿面对和

回避的问题：加州能治理好么?这与A对•应；一方面说明美国人不愿意面对现实，

但这只是深层次政治因素问题的一个表现，木段最后一句话提到的选举上的问题也

表明了这一点，故B为正确答案；C是一个含糊的概念：弊端与优势并存，这种

说法太笼统；最后一段第二句话虽然提到了房价、交通、学校的困境，但这只是对

地方官员能力的考验,不足以构成最不利的因素，因此排除

83、FromthetextwecanlearnthatMr.Starrisveryasahistorian.

A、conservative

B、cunningandshrewd

C、objectiveandcanny

D、criticalandaggressive

标准答案：C-

知识点解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段的前两句话可以看出他很客观，用事实

说话，第八段第一句话也说他避免做出不成熟的结论，这些都说明他客观、谨慎、

负责，而不是狡猾、保守，所以排除了选项A和B；Mr.Stan•并没有咄咄逼人、

特别具有批判性，所以排除选项D；在赞扬加州美丽的同时也不回避其缺点，说

明他作为历史学家很客观，故选择C。

84、Thepurposeofthewriterismainlyto.

A、giveabriefaccountofCaliforniaanditsproblems

B、informuswhyCaliforniaissoattractiveandenduring

C、promoteandpopularizeawould-bcclassicalbook

D、makeacommentonMr.Starrandareviewofhismasterpiece

标准答案：C

知识点解析：主旨题。选项A和B都应该是Mr.Starr写这部传记的作用或目

的，而不是本文作者的目的，所以排除；本文目的并不是介绍Mr.Starr,也不是

要评价他，根据这一点就可以排除D对书的评价只是文章的内容，而不是作者的

目的，作者的目的是评介并推广这本书（认为它是未来的经典），所以选择C。
