六、作文(1題)96.假定你是Helen，要寫一封信給Julie，對她和她的丈夫昨日請你和你丈夫吃飯表示感謝，表示要回請他們，以答謝他們的盛情款待。

參考答案

1.D

2.B

3.D

4.C

5.B解析：本題考查固定搭配。havetrouble(in)doingsth.“做某事有困難”。句意為：有時孩子們在分清故事和現(xiàn)實方面會有困難，相信故事中的事確實存在。

6.C

7.A【句子大意】新打字機的價格是二手貨的三倍。

8.A

9.D解析：本題測試形容詞辨析。四個選項的意思分別是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正義的”，“僅僅的”。根據(jù)句意，D項正確。本句大意為：他僅僅把它作為一個細節(jié)來描述，而我卻認為它是這個計劃中最重要的部分。

10.B

11.Dapplyto應(yīng)用；applyfor申請

12.A解析：此題考查反意疑問句的用法。主句為祈使句，因此其反意疑問句用willyou。

13.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導(dǎo)的從句中，謂語動詞應(yīng)用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結(jié)合語態(tài)，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

14.A解析：while意為“雖然”；as意為“因為”；if意為“如果”；since意為“因為”。根據(jù)題意選A。

15.D

16.A本題考查祈使句型：

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：Mary，到這里來，其余的人待在原處。根據(jù)句子的結(jié)構(gòu)可判斷出這是個祈使句。所以要用動詞原形開頭。Mary在句中不是

主語，而是“呼語”。

17.D解析：從句中的問句主謂不倒裝。從句的時態(tài)隨主句。我想知道那輛車的價格。

18.D

19.D

20.A解析：favor：幫助，一般用domeafavor；good：好處；help不與do搭配：kindness：善良。故選A。

21.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意為“特別地”。

22.A解析：根據(jù)上文提到“findone”，故下文中也應(yīng)填one，表示泛指。

23.A

24.C所有的學(xué)生都去看了昨天的魔術(shù)表演。它太令人不可思議了。這里主要考查的是動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞的不同用法。Sth．bedoing表示某一事物令人怎么樣。Sb．bedone表示某人處于某種狀態(tài)。例：Theletteristouching．這封信令人感動。

Iammoved．我很感動。

25.B考查反義疑問句。原句應(yīng)是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反義疑問句的規(guī)則是陳述部分是肯定式，疑問部分應(yīng)是否定式。Wouldthink表示推測，疑問部分也應(yīng)選擇would。選項B是正確的。【句子大意】你難道還認為他已經(jīng)忘掉了，是嗎?

26.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。給她臉上澆些水，或許她會醒過來。本題考查詞組辨析。comeround：過訪，繞道而來，蘇醒過來；comeback：回來，恢復(fù)；comeagain：再說一遍，重復(fù)一遍；comeout：出來，傳出。

27.B

28.A

29.Blaunch為“發(fā)射”講；其余為干擾項。

30.B解析：cuts“裁減”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱點”；imports“進口”，故正確選項為B。

31.C解析：much用在句中修飾比較級better。

32.B解析：本題考查固定搭配的用法。當否定詞位于句前時，得出結(jié)論應(yīng)用reach/achievein/arriveatconclusion，故選B。

33.Bsetout意為“出發(fā)，動身”。

34.D解析：本題考查動詞搭配。doone'shomework“做作業(yè)”；makemistakes“犯錯誤”。句意為：做作業(yè)，還要保證別犯錯誤。

35.B解析：encourage：鼓勵、鼓舞；discourage：使泄氣；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根據(jù)句意只有選B。

36.D

37.C解析：句子的前半部分是主語從句，主語從句中的謂語動詞時態(tài)應(yīng)根據(jù)句意而定。

38.C解析：notonly…butalso連接主語時，謂語動詞根據(jù)就近原則由butalso后的成分來決定。TomandMary是兩個人，所以動詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

39.A

40.B解析：本題考查動詞固定搭配的用法。deprive后常接介詞of，表示剝奪什么。

41.C

42.C解析：本題考查倒裝虛擬語氣用法。本句是表示與將來事實相反，所以從句用wereto形式。句意為：如果他今天出發(fā)的話，他就會在星期五以前到達那里。

43.B解析：此處是對將來情況的假設(shè)。虛擬條件句的謂語部分為should，had或were時，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在從句的主語之前，構(gòu)成主謂部分倒裝。

44.C

45.C

46.B

47.D

48.C解析：本題考查詞義的辨別。rise出現(xiàn)，put放下，raise提起，arise升高。

49.D解析：上句責備瑪麗應(yīng)該做作業(yè)而不是坐到那兒看電視，下句是瑪麗對媽媽責備的一種辯解：“你說過電視是有教育意義的?！彼訢項正確。

50.A解析：shape意為“(女人的)姿態(tài)，身段”；form意為“形狀，形態(tài)”；appearance意為“外表，樣子”；body意為“身體”。由題意知應(yīng)選A。

51.B

52.F

53.G

54.B

55.D

56.C

57.D

58.Elwouldn’twantasmallwedding

59.G56.G

60.Whatdidyoudo/Howaboutyou/Howdidyouspendyourweekend

61.Conlynotmuch用在一起不符合語言習慣，且邏輯上不通。onlyverymuch邏輯上不通，因為verymuch指“很多”，前面再加上only(僅僅，只有)意思上就講不通。如果說onlytoomuch,那意味著象形文字能表達的內(nèi)容太多了，與文意不符，故用somuch,意思是象形文字能夠表達的只有這么多。

62.D解析：見上一條。

63.C

64.B

65.B解析：選項A意為“改變”：選項B意為“分享”；選項C意為“起源”；選項D意為“確?！薄８鶕?jù)題意，選項B為正確答案。

68.D邏輯推理詞義比較由于大家都不懂怎樣弄意大利面條，一邊歡笑，一邊眾說紛紜，各抒己見(arguments)。speech演說,講話；lessons課程,教訓(xùn)；sayings話語,諺語；arguments爭論，爭辯。

69.D這是since的句型。前面是現(xiàn)在完成時，后面是一般過去時。自從買了手機，他的日子就沒安靜過。

70.D解析：上文說大多數(shù)國家都有自己的音樂風格，下文說到美國，也應(yīng)是繼續(xù)談風格(style)。
