1. When we see dark _______ in the sky, we know that rain may come soon. A. stars B. planes C. clouds D. things【解析】此题容易误选A、B。如果不清楚这是一道常识题的话,一看到in the sky就会想当然地错选为A或B这两项,因为这两样东西经常出现在天空中。由下文中的we know that rain may come soon可知“很快就要下雨了,那么一定是看天空中的’乌云’了”。因此正确答案为C。2. I want to have a _______. I feel thirsty. A. meeting B. talk C. swim D. drink【解析】此题容易误选A、B、C中的任何一项。所给的四个选项都能与have a构成短语,如果粗心大意,不注意下文中的I feel thirty. 就很容易犯想当然的错误。根据常识可知:感到口渴应该是想“喝点什么东西”。正确答案为D。 3. There are five circles with different colours on the flag of Olympic Games. They are green, blue, red _______ and _______. A. yellow, black B. yellow, purple C. black, pink D. pink, grey
【解析】此题容易误选B、C、D中的任何一项。如果不了解奥运会会旗图案的颜色是由红、黄、蓝、绿、黑的话,误选为B、C、D的可能性就相当大。正确答案为A。4. When people are in danger, they would cry out _______! A. Help! Help B. Save me! Save me C. Come on! Come on D. Save life! Save life【解析】此题易受汉语思维的影响而误选为B或D,因为B项译成汉语时好是“救我”之意,D项译成汉语正好是“救命”之意。其实,这里应该选A,在英语中表示求救时要说Help!,而不说Save me!或Save life!
