Ⅰ.语法单句填空
1.My first ________(impress) of him was that he was a kind and thoughtful young man.
答案：impression 考查名词。句意：我对他的第一印象是他是一个善良且有思想的年轻人。
2.He heard someone following him, and glanced round. He caught sight ________ a dark figure in the shadows.
答案：of 句意：他听到有人在跟踪他，便向周围扫了一眼，发现阴暗处有一个黑影。catch sight of看见;瞥见，符合句意。
3.The equipment for disabled people should be ________ easy reach in public places.
答案：within 考查介词短语。句意：在公共场所，残疾人使用的设施应该方便残疾人。由句意可知，填within，within easy reach在附近(距离不远)。
4.Scientists have found evidence ________ global warming caused the world's first horses to become smaller nearly 50 million years ago.
答案：that 考查同位语从句。句意：科学家们已经找到证据，证明大约5000万年前，全球变暖使世界上首批马的个头变小了。根据句意可知，空后说的是evidence的内容，并且句中不缺少成分，所以用that引导同位语从句。
5.—When did you get home last night?
—It was almost midnight ________ we arrived home.
答案：when 考查状语从句。句意：——你们昨晚什么时候到家的?——我们到家的时候差不多是午夜了。答语中“It was almost midnight”为主句，空处引导时间状语从句，应用连词when。此题容易误填that，误把答语当作强调句型。如果是强调句型，应是：It was at midnight that we arrived home。
6.—Have you finished the report?
—Oh, sorry. It was so noisy in the office that I couldn't settle ________ to write anything.
答案：down 答语句意：哦，抱歉。办公室里太吵了以至于我都静不下心来写东西。settle down意为“平静下来;专心于”。
7.At the meeting，all the people were deeply impressed ________ her brilliant report.
答案：with 句意：会议上，所有人都对他精彩的报告留下了深刻的印象。impress sb. with.../sb. be impressed with...以……给某人留下深刻印象。
8.Most people would agree that nuclear science should be developed to benefit the human beings ________ than harm them.
答案：rather 句意：绝大多数人同意核科技发展应该造福人类而非危害人类。rather than表示“而不是;而非”之意。
9.—Our journey cost a lot of money.
—Really? Well，that doesn't matter ________ long as you enjoyed yourselves.
答案：so/as 句意：——我们的旅行花了很多钱。——真的吗?不过，没关系只要你们玩得愉快。as/so long as“只要”。
10.(2014·山东改编)A company ________ profits from home markets are declining may seek opportunities abroad.
答案：whose 句意：一家在国内市场利润下降的公司可能会去国外谋求机会。分析题意和句子结构可知，主句中a company是主语，may seek是谓语，opportunities是宾语，而所填词要引导一个定语从句，该从句中profits是主语，are是系动词，declining是表语，profits前缺少定语，而且profits与先行词构成所属关系，故用whose引导定语从句，同时whose在从句中作profits的定语，符合题意和结构要求。
