1.— May I take your order?
— Yes, I’d like a cup of coffee, a hot dog and some salad. What about you, Lisa?
— ____.
A. Me too B. Same again, please
C. It’s all the same to me D. The same to me
选B。Same again, please. 表示“请同样的再来一份”。
2.— How many students are going to the Great Wall?
— ____.
A. None B. No one C. No D. Not any
选A。回答How many的提问,英语中常用none表示 “一个也没有”;回答Who is...的提问,英语中常用no one,表示“一个也没有”。
3.He came home after midnight, and ____, he was drunk. That made his parents very angry.
A. What is more B. On the other hand
C. In my opinion D. In another word
选A。what’s more常用作插入语,意为“更有甚者;而且”。
4. He did better in the exam not only than _____ in her own class but also than _____ in mine.
A. any other student…any student
B. anybody…anybody
C. anybody…anybody else
D. the other…others
选C。 前空表示“两者中较……的一个”要加the,后空是“越……就越……”的句型。
5.The theory he had stuck _______ to be true.
A. proved B. to proving C. to prove D. to proved
选D。一看这四个选项认为是不定式后接动词原形,其实he had stuck to是充当后置定语,stick to(坚持)为一个固定搭配,去掉这个定语从句后,我们可以很清楚地发现整个句子缺少了谓语动词,定语从句时态为过去完成时,所以主句谓语动词应该过去式。
6.— Tell me something about your adventure in the forest, please.
— We lost our way in the forest and ____ matters worse was ____ night began to fall.
A. what…that B. it…that
C. it…because D. what…because
选A。 前空缺少主语,用what引导一个主哟从句表示“所……的”;后空句意、结构均完整,但was后面的表语从句的连词that不能省略。
7. He was chosen _________ of the company.
A. manager B. a manager C. the manager D. as a manager
选A。 在作为主语补足语和宾语补足语的表示独一无二的官衔或职务的名词前,一般不要用冠词。
8. — You _____ stop me.
— Even if you _____ it, I won’t allow you to do it.
A. mustn’t…dare not do B. may…dare not do
C. can…dare to do D. needn’t…dare do
选D。 根据情态动词的基本用法可排除A、B、C。
9.I will have begun to do the work ______ 3 o’clock this afternoon.
A. by B. at C. after D. before
选A。句中will have begun提供了一个关键的解题线索,表明应该表示“将来截止时间”的介词,在本题中只有by有这种用法。
10.She is too thin. She _______ gain some weight but she ______ too little.
A. would; ate B. will; eat C. would; eats D. will; ate
选C。根据第一句She is too thin所给的信息可以知道,“她瘦”是客观事实,所以“吃得少”也是客观事实,因此用陈述语气的eats。那么“体重增加”则应该是一种假设(注意句中的转折连词but),所以第一个空要填would。本句可以理解为其后面省略了一个条件从句if she ate more。
