【答案与解析】
I. 单项选择。
7
1.A。考查连词用法。由于系动词是are,可推断出主语应该是复数,A答案中的“both…and…”表示并列关系,意为“两者都……”;符合题意。而答案B、C、D在选择谓语动词时都要遵循“就近原则”,在本句中要用单数,不符合句意,因此可以排除。
2.C。考查代词辨析。根据语境可知,此处表示“让我们另定时间吧”。答案中只有C可以表示“另一次,下一次”的意思,故选C。
3.C。考查动词短语辨析。“be made of由……(材料)制成”;“be made up of由……组成”;“be made in在……(地方)制作”;“be madeinto被制成……(成品)”。根据句中的“cotton”可知选C。
4.C。考查动词时态。句意“——迈克,你为什么又在看电视?”“——我已经完成作业了。”此处表示过去发生的事情对现在的影响,即“我已经完成作业了,可以看电视了”,故用现在完成时态。
5.C。考查动词的时态和主谓一致。由后面的“when I came here”可以确定主句用一般过去时态;“there be”句型的主语是“traffic”,为不可数名词,谓语动词要用单数形式,故本题答案为C。
6.A。本题考查动词语态和主谓一致。不可数名词money是动词spend的宾语,money提前作主语时要用被动语态,故答案选A。
7.D。考查时态。由时间状语“yesterday”可知,句子用一般过去时。故选D。
8. D。考查代词辨析。本题为“sb.find(s)it+形容词+ for sb.to do sth.”句型结构。其中代词“it”做形式宾语,而答案中其他选项中的代词没有这种用法,故选D。
9.C。本题考查情景交际。Have fun“玩得高兴”;Not really“不见得”;Sounds fine“听起来很好”;Not at all“一点也不”。句意:“——这部电影很有趣。让我们去看电影吧。”“——听起来很好,为什么不呢?”由句意可知C项符合题意。
10. D。考查一般过去时的被动语态。A选项谓语动词为一般现在时的被动语态,单数;B选项谓语动词为一般现在时的被动语态,复数;C选项谓语动词为一般过去时的被动语态,单数;D选项谓语动词为一般过去时的被动语态,复数;根据many houses 可将A和C排除;因为时间状语表示过去,所以时态为一般过去时。所以选择答案D。
11. B。考查“be made of ”, “be made from”的用法。两者均表示“由……制成”,前者能够看出原材料,后者不能够看出来原材料。“be made in”表示“在某地制成”;“be made by ”表示“由某人或者某机构制成”。根据句意,“红酒是由葡萄制成的”,看不出来原材料,所以选择B。
12. C。考查一般现在时的被动语态,根据句意,“大米被种植在中国南方。”,因为大米是不可数名词,所以谓语动词用单数,题目中是陈述现在的事实,所以用一般现在时。因此答案是C。
13. D。考查“be good at 擅长做某事”;“be good for 对……有好处”;“be good with对……很好。”根据句意,“这种食物对你有好处吗?”因此选D。
14. D。考查“be used for doing sth被用来做某事”;也可以用“be used to do sth. ”表示同样的意思,但句中的空格后是动名词,所以只能用for , 因此答案选D。
15.A 。考查词组辨析。句意“当你不认识单词的时候,你可以查阅字典。”“look up查阅(字典、参考书等)”;“set up建立”;“give up放弃”;“pick up捡起”。由句意可知选A。
【真题链接】
1. A。句意:每天我们学校都浪费大量的水,我们应该节约它。由every day可知应用一般现在时,又因为主语是动作的承受者,故应用一般现在时的被动语态,故答案为A项。
2. A。句意:“鲍勃考试成绩很好。他的父母因他的成功感到骄傲。” success
7
成功;chance机会;idea想法;dream梦想。根据语境,故选A。
3. C。句意:打扰一下,能告诉我飞机什么时候起飞吗?宾语从句三大考点:引导词、语序(陈述句语序)、时态。根据宾语从句中需要用陈述句语序的原则,排除A、D;B选项中离开多长时间,应该是how long the plane has been away选项本身错误。故选C。
II. 完形填空。
1. A。我们的自然资源有限,这就意味着它们(的存在)不能持续到永远。last持续;spread传播,蔓延;burn燃烧;change变化,改变。故选A项。
2. B。A. turn 转动;B. cut切割;C. put放下;D. move移动。句意:当你砍下一棵树,你可以再种一棵。cut sth. down砍倒,符合句意,故选B项。
3. C。station车站;building建筑;ground土地;brick砖。根据常识,是从地下挖煤,故选C项。
4. D。人们意识到地球的自然资源是有限的这一事实,那么可以做一些事以帮助节约这些资源。news消息;plan计划;decision决定;fact事实。根据句意选D项。

III. 阅读理解。
A 篇
1.A。根据第一段第二句“before 1750,the idea of skating didn’t exist(存在)”可知,1750年以前,滑旱冰的想法还不存在,故可推知“直到1750年,滑旱冰的想法才出现”,“not…until…”表示“直到……才……”。
2.D。根据第一段最后一句可知,Merlin的工作是制作音乐器材。
3.B。根据第四段第四句“Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates”可知,Merlin没有办法停下旱冰鞋。“no”相当于“not…any”。

I have a nice alarm clock.It is made of wood and glass.It’s in the shape of a lovely Mickey Mouse.It’s made in Fujian and it’s pink.It’s very lovely because it always has a smiling face.My father bought it for me from Beijing and gave it to me as my 12th birthday present.He uses the clock to make me realize that every minute is valuable.
It’s really my good friend.It tells the right time and wakes me up every morning.Whenever I’m with it.I think of my father’s love to me.I love the clock.It’s my favorite thing.
