3、的辨析。根據(jù)you could have problems可知，此處是虛擬語氣的用法，而選項(xiàng)中只有or和but是和虛擬語氣連用的，用法為：有時(shí)候，虛擬不是通過if引導(dǎo)的條件句來表示，而是暗含在上下文中。用otherwise，or，even though等表示與上文的情況相反，從而引出虛擬語氣。答案：A23.

4、題考查句子時(shí)態(tài)。本題考查學(xué)生對(duì)于時(shí)態(tài)的標(biāo)志性時(shí)間狀語的掌握情況。題中over/in the past years是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)的標(biāo)志，因此選擇C項(xiàng)，句意為，莎士比亞的喜劇“哈姆雷特”在過去的這么多年中，已經(jīng)被制成了至少十種不同的電影。答案：C24. _ the course very difficult, she decided to move to a lower level.A. FindB. FindingC. To findD. Found解析：該題考查非謂語動(dòng)詞的用法。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，_ the course very difficult在句中作原因狀語（非謂語），因此排除A選項(xiàng)，f

5、ind的邏輯主語是she，并且存在主動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此排除D選項(xiàng)。C選項(xiàng)表示目的，根據(jù)句意可以排除，因此選擇B項(xiàng)。答案：B25. -Do you think Mom and Dad _ late?-No, Swiss Air is usually on time.A. wereB. will beC. would beD. have been解析：該題考查一般將來時(shí)的用法。答句中的No,是根據(jù)Swiss Air is usually on time的猜測(cè)，因此可知Mon and Dad還沒有回來，答句只是根據(jù)已知的信息對(duì)將要發(fā)生的事情進(jìn)行的預(yù)測(cè)，因此選擇B選項(xiàng)，一般將來時(shí)。答案：B26. I hav

6、e an appointment _ Dr. Smith, but I need to change it.A. toB. offC. withD. from解析：該題考查固定搭配。have an appointment with sb.是固定詞組，意為和某人有一個(gè)約會(huì)/約定。答案：C27.

When we saw the road _ with snow, we decided to spend the holiday at ho

8、me. A. blockB. to blockC. blockingD. blocked解析：該題考查非謂語動(dòng)詞的用法。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處的block是非謂語，作road的賓語補(bǔ)足語，而同時(shí)road和block之前存在著被動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此選擇D項(xiàng)。答案：D30. I took my driving license with me on holiday, _ I wanted to hire a car.A. in case B. even if C. ever sinceD. if only解析：該題考查詞組辨析。in case意為以防萬一，even if 意為即使，盡管，ever since

9、 自從，if only要是就好了/多好啊。答案：A31. _ makes the book so extraordinary is the creative imagination of the writer. A. ThatB. WhatC. WhoD. Which解析：該題考查主語從句的用法。根據(jù).is the creative imagination of the writer可知，_ makes the book so extraordinary是一個(gè)主語從句，作is的主語。同時(shí)，從句中，makes缺少主語，因此選擇B項(xiàng)（what 在名詞性從句中充當(dāng)主語、賓語或者表語）。答案：B32.

10、 -So what is the procedure?-All the applicants _ before a final decision is made by the authority. A. interviewB. are interviewingC. are interviewedD. are being interviewed解析：該題考查被動(dòng)語態(tài)。applicant申請(qǐng)人和interview面試/采訪之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此排斥A和B項(xiàng)。根據(jù)問句，“那么，程序是怎樣的？”可知，整個(gè)過程還尚未開始，D項(xiàng)是現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)，意為正在發(fā)生因此排除D項(xiàng)。 答案：C33. Experts bel

11、ieve _ people can waste less food by shopping only when it is necessary. A. whyB. whereC. thatD. what 解析：該題考查賓語從句的用法。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，_ people can waste less food by shopping only when it is necessary作believe的賓語，因此是賓語從句，從句中成分、句意完整。That在名詞性從句中不充當(dāng)成分，也沒有意義，因此選擇C項(xiàng)。意為專家認(rèn)為人們可以通過在必須的時(shí)候才購(gòu)物的方式來減少浪費(fèi)食物。why作原因狀語，答案：C34

12、. If we _ a table earlier, we couldnt be standing here in a queue.A. have bookedB. bookedC. bookD. had booked解析：該題考查if引導(dǎo)的虛擬條件句的用法。根據(jù)we couldnt be standing here in a queue可知，該句是if引導(dǎo)的虛擬條件句。根據(jù)earlier可知，從句是對(duì)過去的虛擬，對(duì)過去虛擬時(shí)，從句應(yīng)該用had done 結(jié)構(gòu)，因此選擇D項(xiàng)。答案：D35. -You neednt take an umbrella. It isnt going to rain.

13、-Well, I dont know. It _ do.A. mightB. needC. wouldD. should解析：該題考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的辨析。根據(jù) I dont know.可知，答句中含有不確定的口氣，因此應(yīng)當(dāng)選擇“可能”，即A項(xiàng)。句意為，-你不需要帶雨傘，不會(huì)下雨的。-額，我不知道，有可能要下雨的。need意為需要， would意為將要、會(huì)，should意為應(yīng)當(dāng)。其中would和should都有比較有把握，肯定的含義，故排除。答案：A第二節(jié) 完形填空（共 20 小題；每小題 1.5 分，共 30 分）閱讀下面短文，掌握其大意，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。A L
