1. —What’s going on?
— ______
A. No, we won’t go on. We need rest.
B. The Times Theatre is on fire.
C. I’m going on telling the story.
D. How about some ice cream?
选B。 “What’s going on?” 意为“出什么事了?”,由此可以得出B与问句意思想一致。而A为一般疑问句的回答不符合。
2. Everything he ______ away from him before he returned to his home town.
A. took B. had been taken
C. had had been taken D. had taken
选C。该题的选择具有很强的迷惑性,句子结构较长,这就要求学生在平时学习中,不但要掌握其“形”,而且要掌握其“神”,从理清句子结构入手,判断这个貌似某一结构的句子的真实面目。可以运用简化法,将定语从句中的he had先删除,句子就简单了许多。该句应正确理解为“他所拥有的一切都在他返回家乡之前被拿走了”,故正确答案C中第一个动词had和he组成定语从句,he had表示“他所拥有的”,省略了引导词that。第二个动词had been taken是过去完成时的被动语态,和before所引导的从句在意义和时态上均一致。
3.When I was you age, I dared to go out alone at night, ______ you?
A. dared B. dare C. did D. didn’t
选B。本题极易错选A或C。从“When I was you age”看说话人问的是“你”现在的情况,因此A、C、D不可以。dare you 是dare you go alone at night 的省略形式,dare在这里为情态动词。
4. —Who are those with the flags?
—A group ______ itself the League for Peace.
A. called B. calls
C. calling D. is called
选C。可以用补全法做题。calling itself 作定语,修饰group, 表示主动关系,故用-ing形式,若去掉itself则用called修饰group,表示被动。本题完整的句子为:They are a group calling itself the League for Peace.
5.The cell phone I ______ I ______ is on the back seat of my car.
A. thought; had lost B. think; had lost
C. thought; have lost D. think; lost
选A。本题主要考查从句时态的用法。lost行发生在thought 之前,故应用完成时had lost。
6. The dictionary is to a student ______ the tool is to a worker.
A. which B. that C. what D. whatever
选C。A is to+ B What C is to D意为“A与B的关系就等于C与D的关系”。又如:Air is to man what water is to fish.空气之于人犹如水之于鱼。
7. They arrived at the farmhouse, in front of which
A. is sitting a boy B. sat a boy
C. a boy sat D. a boy is sitting
选B。地点状语放在句首构在完全倒装,即主语与谓语直接颠倒位置,不加助动词。选A、D与主句时态不符,选项C应构成倒装句才对。
8. If we ______ , we can realize the progress we have made in space research.
A. turn back B. look back
C. answer back D. move back
选B。look back在这里是“回顾”的意思,turn back有“转身”的意思,因此B为最佳答案。C没有相关表达;move back表示“搬回”的意思,不符合句子的意思。
9. Many newspapers printed the governor’s statement_ would support a tax cut.
A. and he B. was that he
C. which he D. that he
选D。本题考查由that引导的同位语从句的用法。that 在同位语从句中不作成分,但一般不省略,用来说明其内容。
10. If better use is of your spare time, you’ll make great progress in it.
A. spent B. made C. taken D. thought
选B。本题主要考查动词的固定搭配。make better use of 意思是“对……更好地利用”,故选B。
