Hewasaskedtobethe（

）ofthebadmintongamebecausehewasanimpartialperson.

問題1選項

A.judge

B.umpire

C.fan

D.controller

【答案】B

【解析】考查名詞辨析。judge意為“法官，審判員”，泛指各種場合中的評判人員；umpire意為“裁判員”多用于仲裁者本身不需隨比賽移動位置，如羽毛球、游泳、板球、棒球等；fan意為“迷，狂熱愛好者，風扇”；controller意為“(尤指大型機構或部門的)管理者，控制者”。由thebadmintongame（羽毛球比賽）可知選B。

句意：他被要求擔任羽毛球比賽的裁判，因為他是一個公正的人。

2.單選題

Sofast（

）thatitisdifficultforustoimagineitsspeed.

問題1選項

A.haslighttraveled

B.lighttravels

C.doeslighttravel

D.travelslight

【答案】C

【解析】考查倒裝句。由so/such…that…結構中的so或such與其修飾成分位于句首表示強調(diào)時，主句要進行倒裝，因此選項C符合題意。

3.單選題

Hardlyanything____morethanhappinessofseeingsomeoneusinghisdevicefortreatment.

問題1選項

A.pleasehim

B.doespleasehim

C.doeshimplease

D.pleaseshim

【答案】D

【解析】【選項釋義】

A.pleasehim使他開心B.doespleasehim確實使他開心

C.doeshimplease確實是他開心D.pleaseshim使他開心

【答案】D

【考查點】主謂一致

【解題思路】該句的主語為anything“任何事情”，是一個不定代詞，不定代詞做主語時，謂語動詞使用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。選項中的please為本句的謂語，其第三人稱單數(shù)形式為pleases，him為本句的賓語。因此，D選項pleaseshim“使他開心”滿足語法要求。

【干擾項排除】

A選項pleasehim，沒有使用第三人稱單數(shù)；

B選項doespleasehim，雖然hardly放在句首時一般需要部分倒裝，但是，本句沒有在主語anything的前面挖空，does的位置不對。另外，hardly放在句首也可以不使用部分倒裝，只是這樣就不表示強調(diào)了；

C選項doeshimplease，與B選項相同，does的位置不對，另外，him是賓語，應在please的后面。

【句意】沒有什么比看到有人用他的設備治療更讓他高興的了。

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:C

第3題:A

第4題:D

第5題:B

【解析】第1題:細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)第一段第一句“Likemanyothersmallboys,Iwasfascinatedbycars,notleastbecausemyoldestbrotherwasabitofacarguyandsubscribedtocoolmagazineslikeCarandDriverandMotorTrend.”和許多其他小男孩一樣，我對汽車很著迷，尤其是因為我的哥哥是個汽車迷，訂閱了《汽車與司機》和《汽車趨勢》等很酷的雜志。由此可知，選項A“和其他男孩一樣想擁有自己的車”和原文不符，作者只是說自己和其他男孩一樣對汽車著迷；選項B“作者在哥哥的雜志上讀到有關汽車的新奇事物”符合原文；選項C在文中沒有提及；選項D是作者哥哥訂閱的雜志而不是他自己，所以錯誤。

第2題:語義題。這句話的意思是“我的車不能做任何我哥哥的車所不能做的事”。根據(jù)下文的內(nèi)容“Itgoes,itstops,itburnsgasoline,itplaysmusic.Istillhavetosteerit,anditstillrunsintothingsifIdon'tsteeritcarefully.”它前進，它停止，它燃燒汽油，它播放音樂。我仍然需要操縱它，如果我不小心操縱，它仍然會撞到東西。以及第二段首句“Butguesswhat?Allofthesethingsaresubjecttochangeinthenot-so-distantfuture.”但你猜怎么著？所有這些都可能在不久的將來發(fā)生變化。也就是說，到目前為止，汽車的性能并沒有發(fā)生改變，它還是需要人來操控。所以選項C為正確答案。

第3題:細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)第三段第二句“consideringtherecentnewsaboutpeopleoccasionallybeingkilledbytheirairbagsinlow-speedcollisions,theyobviouslystillneedsomedevelopment.”考慮到最近的新聞，安全氣囊在低速碰撞中偶爾會使人喪生，顯然安全氣囊仍然需要一些改進。選項A符合原文。選項B與原文“Buttheyaren’tgoingaway.”不符；根據(jù)第二句中的關鍵詞“occasionally”可知，選項C表述太絕對；選項D在文中沒有提及。

第4題:細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)關鍵詞“alcohol”定位到倒數(shù)第四段“Carscouldbeequippedwithsensorsthatcandetectalcoholinadriver’ssystemandpreventthecarfrombeingstarted,forexample.”例如，汽車可以配備傳感器，檢測駕駛員身體中的酒精含量，從而防止汽車啟動。由此可知，選項D“它們不會啟動”正確。

第5題:細節(jié)事實題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句“Willcarseventuallybeabletodrivethemselves?There’snoreasontothinkitwon'tbetechnicallypossible...”汽車最終能自動駕駛嗎？沒有理由認為這在技術上是不可能的。由此可知，選項B正確；根據(jù)最后一段第三句“Nobodyreallyexpectspeopletogiveupallcontroltotheircars.”沒有人真的希望人們完全放棄對汽車的控制，所以選項A不正確；選項C和D在文中沒有提及。

5.單選題

IsthistheTVsetwhichyouwish（

）?

問題1選項

A.tohaveitrepaired

B.torepairit

C.tohaverepaired

D.willberepair

【答案】C

【解析】考查定語從句的用法。句中which引導定語從句修飾先行詞theTVset從句中有一個固定用法havesth.repaired“修復某物”，可知which指代theTVset在從句中充當被修理的賓語。因此C選項正確。

D.Hethinkswomennowadaysareascapableasmen.

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:C

第3題:C

第4題:C

第5題:D

【解析】1.根據(jù)第一段的第一句“Oneofthegoodthingsformeninwomen’sliberationisthatmennolongerhavetopaywomentheold-fashionedcourtesies．”對男性來說,婦女解放帶來的一個好處就是男人不用遵守尊重婦女的舊式禮節(jié)了。由此可知,在婦女解放過程中,男性也得到了解放,所以選項B符合原文。

2.從作者的敘述方式看,作者在討論舉止風度以及婦女解放問題時帶有調(diào)侃語氣。例如,在第四段的第二句中,作者說,他拒絕用一些過時的禮節(jié)來麻煩女士(事實上對女性表示禮貌恭維談不上是“麻煩”),而且之所以這樣,是出于一種尊敬。又如,在第五段第二句中,作者將自己看作是那些具有“天然風度”(naturalgrace)的男士,而所謂“天然”,卻是一切順其自然,不受社會禮儀規(guī)范所約束。由此可以確定選項C為正確答案。

3.根據(jù)關鍵詞“AnnClark”定位到第五段的后半部分,AnnClark認為當一名男性和一名女性被帶到餐桌子前,服務員拿出一把椅子,坐在椅子上的應該是女性。說明AnnClark比較贊同傳統(tǒng)的社會行為規(guī)則,而作者的做法恰好與其相反,他喜歡順著自己的意愿。所以選項C符合原文。

4.根據(jù)原文內(nèi)容可知,作者坐在那把椅子上的原因是因為那個正是他想坐的椅子,而且他是在妻子的前面到達的,這是作者的一種習慣。所以作者的妻子認為作者不應該按照自己的習慣坐在那把椅子上,所以選項C正確。

5.根據(jù)原文最后一段內(nèi)容可知,作者比女性先上車的原因,首先這是他的一個習慣,其次是出于禮貌,愛和尊重,以及保護女性的安全避免受到潛在的襲擊。只有選項D不正確。
