参考答案
Ⅰ.1.C 由第二句句意“人人都会生你的气”可知,答案为C项,stupid意为“糊涂的”。
2.B 由第二句句意“你可能会感冒”可知,排除C、D两项;take off是“动词+副词”型短语动词,代词作宾语时要放在动词与副词之间。
3.B 句意:他们走过一座旧房子,发现后面有一棵老树。past作介词时有“经过;路过”之意。
4.A 句意:那位老人到处寻找他的票,但他没有找到。第一空表示找的过程,第二空表示找的结果。故选A项。
5.A 句意:够了吗?你还需要另一个吗?another 表示“再一个,另一个”,符合题意。
6.A 由第一句句意“请坐我的座位”可知,此处意为“下车”,故选A项。
7.B 由第一句句意“吉姆去过中国”和最后一句“他去过那儿三次了”可知,本空意为“他确实如此”。“so+主语+be动词/助动词/情态动词”意为“主语的确如此”,故选B项。
8.C tell sb.to do sth.意为“告诉某人做某事”。
9.B ask sb. for help意为“向某人寻求帮助”。
10.C 句意:当心!车前面有只小狗。take care意为“当心,当心”,符合题意。
Ⅱ.1.officer 由动词ask可知,本空表示“人”,所以答案为officer,意为“长官”。
2.to see 句型“It's+形容词+to do sth.”是固定结构。
3.reading 句意:他的父亲坐在座位上看报纸。“看报纸”这个动作伴随着谓语动词“坐”同时发生。动词的ing形式短语可作伴随状语,所以答案是reading。
4.to help offer to do sth.意为“主动提出做某事”。
5.dancing see sb.doing sth.意为“看见某人正在做某事”。
Ⅲ.1.C fall behind意为“落在后面”;drop off意为“减少,下降”;slow down意为“减速,慢下来”;rush out意为“突然出来”。前文说火车走到了一个拐弯处,根据常识火车到拐弯处都应该减速,故选C项。
2.A 由前文可知,此处的风景很美丽,大家都睁大眼睛欣赏,这个年轻人也不例外,“他”也被这风景吸引了。attract意为“吸引”;frighten意为“吓着”;trap意为“夹住,卡住”;attack意为“攻击”。
3.C 根据后文可知,年轻人去找了房子的主人并要买下这个房子,所以在回程的路上,他在离房子最近的一站下了车。
4.D 根据 trouble 和 train
4
可以推测出,火车给这个主人带来了很多麻烦,也可以推测出,应该是火车驶过的声音造成的麻烦。
5.C 前文交代了年轻人询问房子,后文讲了他拥有房子,所以此处花了三万美元买下的自然就是这个房子。
6.A 下文“could be used for advertisement”是提示。
7.B 前文说过那次旅行很乏味,乘客也很无聊。所以此处应该填一个消极的形容词来形容旅客。故选B项。
8.B since then意为“从那时起”;at last意为“最后”;at least意为“至少”;so far意为“到目前为止”。根据句意,应该是最后可口可乐与他合作。
9.C show意为“展示”;allow意为“允许”;offer意为“提供”;return意为“送回”。从上文可知可口可乐公司把他们的商标放在了房子上,所以他们就得提供给这个年轻人钱。
10.A 读完这篇短文可知,年轻人通过发现大家对这个房子感兴趣而获得了成功。最后这句话应该是“发现对于成功很重要”。
