Based on an interior cabin but upgrade to Ocean View for an extra £ 177 per-person.可知以室内小屋为基础，但要
升级到海景舱，每人需额外支付 177 英镑。由此可知，一对夫妇应该为美国的跨大西洋海景舱付

B
I was 11 years old when I asked my mom for piano lessons in 2010. We were in the economic decline. She said
a polite “no”.
That didn’t stop me. I Googled the measurements for a keyboard, drew the keys on a piece of paper and stuck it
on my desk. I would click notes on an online keyboard and “play” them back on my paper one-keeping the sound
they made on the computer in my head. I spent six months playing without touching a real piano. Once my mom saw
that I was serious, she borrowed money and bought me 10 lessons.
I still remember the first one. I was struck by how real the sound of the piano was. I sat my grade one after eight
lessons. Once I started secondary school, we couldn’t afford lessons again. I passed grade three, then grade five,
practicing only on my piece of paper.One evening, when I was about 13, my mom said she had a surprise for me; it was an electronic keyboard,
bought with more borrowed money. It was the first time I’d played for her. She was in shock.
My school didn’t offer music A-level. I found the Purcell School for young musicians. But I had to pass a
difficult test. Some of the questions involved an evaluation of the composer or when some piece was written. I felt
overwhelmed. To my amazement, I was offered a place.
At Purcell, I spent two years working as hard as I could. I performed to raise money and saved enough to buy
my first piano.
When I left Purcell, I was awarded the senior piano prize and senior academic music prize. I am now at the
Guildhall School in London. I feel proud: it’s been 10 years since I drew my paper piano, and I’m at one of the
world’s leading music schools.
The irony is that I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano-what we call mental practice. The
paper piano helped arouse my curiosity about how music works, the building blocks that form the pieces.
4. Why did the author’s mom buy him lessons at last?
A. She was shocked by his first performance.
B She had no doubt of his talent for piano.
C. She realized he meant what he said.
D. She suddenly made a fortune.
5. Which of the following can best describe the author?
A. Honest. B. Determined.

通过自己画钢琴格，自学成才，最后进入了理想音乐学府的故事。告诉人们，如果有梦想，一定要坚持下
去。
【4 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中 Once my mom saw that I was serious, she borrowed money and bought me 10 lessons.

不只是玩玩而已，因此被打动了，所以给他买了 10 节课。故选 C。
【5 题详解】
推理判断题。结合文章大意可知，作者因为喜欢钢琴，在没有真正的钢琴、付不起钢琴课程的情况下，自
己在纸键盘上练习，最后成功进入了世界顶级的音乐学校，因此，可以看出他是个有决心、坚定的人。故
选 B。
【6 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文 I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano-what we call mental practice.可知
我的很多练习都是在钢琴以外的地方进行的，这就是我们所说的心理练习。作者的许多练习中都没有实物
钢琴，只能靠心理练习，这是很令人感到惊讶的事情。故划线单词意思为“惊讶的”。故选A。

C
It’s funny how readily we “take the advice of complete strangers” when shopping online. More than 80 percent
of Americans say they read online reviews at least some of the time. But on sites such as Amazon and Yelp,
businesses have learnt to “making the most of the rating system to the seller’s or the platform’s advantage”,
eventually “making the star-rating scale useless”. Even in the case of confirmed reviews, it can be hard to know
what the stars mean.
Amazon has stepped up the effort to provide transparency said Louise Matsakis in Wired.com. Its “Vine
voices” program sends free products for testing to an invite-only community of “trusted reviewers”. Amazon has
also started ranking its Top 10,000 Contributors on a daily leaderboard not “just by the number of reviews a person
has but also by how many customers found their feedback to be helpful”. The current No.1 reviewer, a 45-year-old
from North Dakota who has posted nearly 2,500 comments since 2002, has owned a bakery in Oregon, worked for a
small newspaper, and had a 10-year stretch in the Navy as a nuclear welding inspector. Now he spends his time
的testing everything from fryers to popcorn makers, though he exceeded its weight limit by 70 pounds.
But sellers are still finding ways to deceive prospective buyers, said a reviewer. He said, “I identified more than
150 private Facebook groups where sellers openly exchange free products for five-star reviews. I joined four of
them and was annoyed with a flurry of private messages from sellers. One offered to pay me $10 for a splendid
review of what was already ‘one of the highest-ranked iPhone chargers’, with 3,971 five-star reviews and a trusted
‘Amazon choice’ label. When it arrived, the charger broke within minutes. I reached out to Amazon and those
thousands of five-star reviews for the charger disappeared.”
The product now has 11 reviews and holds a rating of 2.5 stars. But before all those five-star reviews
disappeared, how many shoppers spotted this $ 13.99 charger pack on Amazon’s first-page results and fell for the
trick?
8. What action has Amazon taken to make the star-rating scale useful?
A. Provide effectively checked comments for consumers.
B. Give priority to the advantage of customers.
C. Decide on contributors’ rank by the quantity of reviews.
D. Get reliable reviewers to test products before their release.
9. What does the underlined word “deceive” in the third paragraph most probably mean?
A. Persuade. B. Instruct.
C. Interest. D. Cheat.
10. What do we know about the charger seller in the last two paragraphs?
A. He convinced buyers to obtain free products.
B. He attempted to obtain excellent reviews by purchase.
C. He was in hot water and deleted all untrusted reviews.
D. He tricked buyers and disappeared from Amazon.
11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Efforts of Amazon
B. The Application of Rating System
C. Not Every Star Shines So Bright
D. Don’t Fall for the Trick of Sellers
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了亚马逊和 Yelp 等网站上一些卖家通过购买好评来吸引顾客购买自己的产
品，从而使网站的星级评级系统变得毫无用处。亚马逊对此采取的措施是为消费者提供有效的审核意见来
让星级量表变得有用。然而卖家仍在想方设法欺骗潜在买家。
【8 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中 Its “Vine voices” program sends free products for testing to an invite-only community
of “trusted reviewers”. Amazon has also started ranking its Top 10,000 Contributors on a daily leaderboard not “just
by the number of reviews a person has but also by how many customers found their feedback to be helpful”.可知它的
“Vine voices”项目将免费的测试产品发送给一个只有邀请的“可信的评论者”社区。亚马逊(Amazon)也开
始在每日排行榜上对其前 1 万名贡献者进行排名，不仅根据“一个人的评论数量，还根据有多少客户认为
他们的反馈是有帮助的”。由此可知，亚马逊通过为消费者提供有效的审核意见来让星级量表变得有用。故
选 A。
【9 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文 I identified more than 150 private Facebook groups where sellers openly exchange free
products for five-star reviews.可知我在 Facebook 上发现了 150 多个私人群组，卖家可以在这些群组里公开交
换免费产品，换取五星好评。由此可知，卖家通过公开交换免费产品，换取五星好评的方法来欺骗买家，
故划线单词意思为“欺骗”。故选D。
【10 题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中 One offered to pay me $10 for a splendid review of what was already ‘one of the
highest-ranked iPhone chargers’, with 3,971 five-star reviews and a trusted ‘Amazon choice’ label. When it arrived,
the charger broke within minutes.可知其中一家公司出价 10 美元，请我给它写一篇精彩的评论，这篇评论已经
是“排名最高的 iPhone 充电器之一”，有3971 篇五星级评论，还有一个值得信赖的“亚马逊选择”(Amazon
choice)标签。当它到货时，充电器在几分钟内就坏了。由此可知，充电器卖家试图通过购买获得极好的评
价。故选 B。
【11 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中 But on sites such as Amazon and Yelp, businesses have learnt to “making the most of
the rating system to the seller’s or the platform’s advantage”, eventually “making the star-rating scale useless”.可知
但在亚马逊和 Yelp 等网站上，企业学会了“充分利用卖家或平台的优势来利用评级系统”，最终“让星级
评级变得毫无用处”。结合文章主要说明了亚马逊和Yelp 等网站一些企业通过购买好评来吸引顾客购买自
己的产品，从而使网站的星级评级系统变得毫无用处，故 C 选项“不是每颗星星都那么明亮”符合文章标
题。故选 C。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用 refer to, be called 或 that's to say, such as 等。
② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly, the same as, but, however, while,
on the other hand, since ,because 等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。
④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关
注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位
置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较
所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。
如第二小题，根据后文 I identified more than 150 private Facebook groups where sellers openly exchange free
products for five-star reviews.可知我在 Facebook 上发现了 150 多个私人群组，卖家可以在这些群组里公开交
换免费产品，换取五星好评。由此可知，卖家通过公开交换免费产品，换取五星好评的方法来欺骗买家，
故划线单词意思为“欺骗”。故选D。
D
In the 19th century, an Arab physician known as Zuhr Ibn conducted some animal research to assess the
surgical procedures that could be applicable in humans. Since then, animal testing has been considered to be the
most efficient way to develop new drugs. New medical treatments and drugs are tested in animals first to determine
their effectiveness or safety levels before they are finally tested on humans. However, it remains controversial
whether it is morally right or wrong to use animals for medical or commercial experiments.
Use of animals for medical purposes is seen to be necessary by many scientists. Researchers usually begin their
trials using rats. If the tests are successful, further tests are done on monkeys before using human beings. For testing,
such tiered(分层的) rounds are important because it reduces the level of error and any negative side effects. Some
argue that animal testing has contributed to many life-saving cures and treatments and there is no adequate
alternative to testing on a living, whole-body system. Moreover, there are regulations for animal testing that limit
the misuse of animals during research, which serves as evidence that animals are well taken care of and treated well
instead of being intentionally harmed.
However, some other experts and animal welfare groups have opposed such practice, terming it as
inhumane(不人道的) and claiming it should be banned. According to Humane Society International, animals used
in experiments are commonly subjected to force feeding, radiation exposure, operations to deliberately cause
damage and frightening situations to create depression and anxiety. They also hold the view that animals are very
different from human beings and therefore make poor test subjects. Drugs that pass animal tests are not necessarily safe. Animal tests on the arthritis(关节炎) drug Vioxx showed that it would have a protective effect on the hearts
of mice, yet the drug went on to cause more than 27,000 heart attacks before being pulled from the market.
It’s safe to say that using animals for tests will continue to be debated in many years to come. Despite the
benefits of animal testing, some of the animal welfare organizations’ concerns need to be addressed with adequate
regulations to ensure that animals are treated humanely.
12. Why is animal testing considered necessary?
A. Because rats are more similar to humans than monkeys.
B. Because other testing alternatives may not replace the need for animals.
C. Because animal testing can spare humans any side effect.
D. Because animal testing has been in practice since the 19th century.
13. What suffering do animals go through during experiments?
A. Eating poisonous food.
B. Being killed deliberately.
C. Breathing in polluted air.
D. Having unnecessary operations.
14. What does the example Vioxx in paragraph 3 tell us?
A. Arthritis is hard to cure.
B. Some drugs need to be withdrawn from the market.
C. Animals can not necessarily produce accurate results.
D. A drug should be tested many more times before its release.
15. What action will the author probably agree with?
A. Experts try hard to determine whether animal tests are harmful.
B. The authorities issue a new law to guarantee animal rights during research.
C. Scientists reduce the number of animals used in research.
D. Relevant organizations show more concern about the animals’ welfare.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。文章指出动物用于医学或商业实验在道德上是对还是错仍然存在争议，一方面如今其他
的检测方法可能无法替代对动物的需求，许多科学家认为把动物用于医疗目的是必要的；而另一方面，一
些专家和动物福利组织反对这种做法，他们认为这种做法不人道，应该被禁止。可以肯定地说，在未来的
许多年里，使用动物进行试验的争论将继续存在。【12 题详解】
细 节 理 解 题 。 根 据 第 二 段 中 Some argue that animal testing has contributed to many life-saving cures and
treatments and there is no adequate alternative to testing on a living, whole-body system.可知一些人认为，动物实
验已经为许多拯救生命的治疗方法做出了贡献，目前还没有足够的方法来替代活体全身系统的测试。由此
可知，动物实验被认为是必要的，因为其他的检测方法可能无法替代对动物的需求。故选 B。
【13 题详解】
细 节 理 解 题 。 根 据 第 三 段 中 According to Humane Society International, animals used in experiments are
commonly subjected to force feeding, radiation exposure, operations to deliberately cause damage and frightening
situations to create depression and anxiety.可知据国际人道协会称，用于实验的动物通常会遭受强制喂食、辐
射暴露、故意造成伤害的手术，以及造成抑郁和焦虑的可怕情况。由此可知，动物在实验中经历了做不必
要的手术痛苦。故选 D。
【14 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中 Animal tests on the arthritis drug Vioxx showed that it would have a protective effect
on the hearts of mice, yet the drug went on to cause more than 27,000 heart attacks before being pulled from the
market.可知关节炎药物 Vioxx 的动物试验显示，它对老鼠的心脏有保护作用，但这种药物在被撤市前导致
了逾 2.7 万例心脏病发作。由此可知，第 3 段中的例子 Vioxx 告诉了我们动物不一定能产生准确的结果。故
选 C。
【15 题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中 Despite the benefits of animal testing, some of the animal welfare organizations’
concerns need to be addressed with adequate regulations to ensure that animals are treated humanely.可知尽管动物
试验的好处，一些动物福利组织的担忧需要通过适当的法规来解决，以确保动物得到人道对待。由此可推
知，作者可能会同意当局颁布了一项新法律以保证研究期间的动物权利。故选 B。
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When it comes to green buildings, we tend to think of new ones – the kind of high-tech, solar-paneled
masterpieces that make the covers of architecture magazines. ___16___They are the witness of the country. And it
would be incredibly wasteful to tear them all down and replace them with greener versions. ___17___What’s
more, it would take an average of 65 years for the reduced carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to
make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one. ___18___
But there is an unavoidable fact that nearly half of U. S. carbon emissions come from heating, cooling and
powering those aged houses. "You can't deal with climate change without dealing with existing buildings," says Richard Moe, the president of the National Trust. With some exceptions, the oldest homes tend to be the least
energy- efficient. ___19___Houses built before 1939 use about 50% more energy per square foot than those built
after 2000.
___20___Historic ones like Lincoln's Cottage can be transformed through efficiency upgrades. They can not
only help protect property owners from rising power costs; They can save the earth.
A. But how to change their conditions?
B. But the U.S. has more than 100 million existing homes.
C. Some effective measures should be taken by government.
D. So some people say that the greenest way is to maintain old ones.
E. Fortunately, some relatively simple changes can green older homes.
F. Vast energy and resources went into the construction of those houses.
G. The main cause is the cracks that expand over time and let outside air in.
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. D 19. G 20. E
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。美国现有超过 1 亿套住房，大量的能源和资源被用于建造这些房屋，而一个节能的新房
子所减少的碳排放平均需要 65 年才能弥补因破坏旧房子而损失的资源。所以有些人说最环保的方法是维护
旧的。文章分析了这些老房子不节能的原因以及解决方案。
【16 题详解】
根据上文 When it comes to green buildings, we tend to think of new ones – the kind of high-tech, solar-paneled
masterpieces that make the covers of architecture magazines.可知说到绿色建筑，我们往往会想到新建筑——那
种出现在建筑杂志封面上的高科技、太阳能面板的杰作。再结合后文主要在说明美国住房过多的问题，由
此可知，本句与上文发生转折，表明与那些高科技的新建筑不同的是，美国目前有超过 1 亿套住房。后文
中 they 可对应到 B 选项中 100 million existing homes。故 B 选项“但美国现有超过 1 亿套住房”符合上下文
语境。故选 B。
【17 题详解】
根据上文 And it would be incredibly wasteful to tear them all down and replace them with greener versions.可知如
果把它们都拆了，换成更环保的，那就太浪费了。由此可知，本句应当说明这些房屋所投入的大量能源和
资源，不应当直接拆除换成更环保的。故 F 选项“大量的能源和资源被用于建造这些房屋”符合上下文语
境。故选 F。
【18 题详解】
根 据 上 文 What’s more, it would take an average of 65 years for the reduced carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one.可知更重要的是，一个节能的新房
子所减少的碳排放平均需要 65 年才能弥补因破坏旧房子而损失的资源。由此可知，美国目前的住房投入了
大量的能源和资源，同时一个节能的新房子需要耗费很长时间才能弥补因破坏旧房子而损失的资源，由此
可知，有些人会认为最环保的方法就是维护这些旧的房子。故 D 选项“所以有些人说最环保的方法是维护
旧的”符合上下文语境。故选 D。
【19 题详解】
根据上文 With some exceptions, the oldest homes tend to be the least energy- efficient.可知除了一些例外，最古老
的房子往往是最不节能的。由此可知，本句应当承接上文说明老房子不节能的原因。故 G 选项“主要原因
是随着时间的推移，裂缝会扩大，让外面的空气进来”符合上下文语境。故选 G。
【20 题详解】
根据后文 Historic ones like Lincoln's Cottage can be transformed through efficiency upgrades.可知像林肯小屋这
样的历史建筑可以通过提高能效来改造。由此可知，本段是在说明解决对这些旧房子的方案，即通过一些
改变来让这些老房子变得更加环保节能，故 E 选项“幸运的是，一些相对简单的改变就可以绿化老房子”
符合上下文语境。故选 E。

43. different
44. loss 45. filling
46. helps 47. Being
48. but 49. connecting
50. that /which
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了 Tim Hollingsworth 在成长过程中与母亲一起烹饪，后来母亲患了老年痴呆症，
他仍和母亲在一起烹饪，这样有助于拉近痴呆症可能造成的距离。重要的不是他们吃什么，而是围坐在桌
子旁的舒适体验。
【41 题详解】
考查冠词。chef 为可数名词，此处表示泛指应用不定冠词，且 well-known 为辅音音素开头的单词故用 a。
故填 a。
【42 题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：他们会一边烹饪，一边和母亲谈话品尝食物。此处为 as 引导的时间状语从句，根据
上文 would talk 可知应用一般过去式，或此处理解为过去的某一时刻正在进行的动作用过去进行时，主语为
they，谓语动词用复数形式。故填 cooked/were cooking。
【43 题详解】
考查形容词。根据上文 it is 可知此处用形容词 different 作表语，表示“不同的”。故填different。
【44 题详解】
考查名词。句意：她与失忆作斗争。结合句意表示“失忆，健忘”短语为 memory loss。故填 loss。
【45 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知 fill 在句中作非谓语动词，且与逻辑主语 ones 构成主动关系，故用现
在分词。故填 filling。
【46 题详解】
考查主谓一致。本句主语为动名词短语 being present at the cooking，时态为一般现在时，故谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填 helps。
【47 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知本句中缺少主语，故应用动名词短语 being with family 作主语，句首字
母要大写。故填 Being。
【48 题详解】
考查连词。句意：他们吃什么并不重要，重要的是围坐在餐桌旁的舒适体验。表示“不是……而是……”
短语为 not…but…，故填 but。
【49 题详解】
考查形容词。修饰后文名词 power 应用形容词 connecting，表示“连接的”。故填connecting。
【50 题详解】
考查定语从句。此处为定语从句修饰先行词 food，且先行词在从句中做主语，表示食物应用关系代词 that
或 which 引导。故填 that /which。
【点睛】定语从句中的关系词选择，可考虑以下几点：
1、看清楚先行词的意义，就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用 who 或
whom，指人时通常不用 which 等等。
2、看清楚关系词的句法功能，就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分，是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状
语等等。作定语通常用 whose，有时也用 which。作状语要用 when, where, why。
3、看清楚定语从句的种类，就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。that、why 通常不引导非
限制性定语从句。
4、看清楚文体，就是理清是正式文体，还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。
如第十小题，此处为定语从句修饰先行词 food，且先行词在从句中做主语，表示食物应用关系代词 that 或
which 引导。故填 that /which。

reason of which I like it is that it covers both national and international news. By simply turning page, I can learn all
important things that had happened during the week. Presented some viewpoints in an objective and humorous way,
it deserves the popularity. Therefore, equally attractive are the stories of world-famous people that help me
understand which makes them succeed. As a young student, I suggest that Global Mirror would carry articles
guiding us in our English learning, and I hope that it will become even popular.
【答案】1.five→fifth
2.the→a
3.of→for
4.page→pages
5.had→have
6.Prevented→Preventing
7.Therefore→Moreover/Furthermore
8.which→what
9.去掉 would 或者 would→should
10.在 popular 前加 more
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。作者作为《全球镜报》的老读者祝贺《全球镜报》成立五周年，说明了自己喜欢它的原
因等情况。
【详解】1.考查序数词。句意：祝贺《全球镜报》成立五周年！此处表示“第五周年”应用序数词 fifth。
故 five 改为 fifth。
2.考查冠词。reader 为可数名词，此处表示泛指应用不定冠词，且 regular 为辅音音素开头的单词应用 a。故
the 改为 a。
3.考查介词。句意：我喜欢它的原因是它涵盖了国内和国际新闻。此处为“介词+关系代词”结构定语从句
修饰先行词 reason，且先行词在从句中做原因状语，故应用 for which 引导定语从句。故 of 改为 for。
4.考查名词的数。page 为可数名词，此处前面没有冠词故用复数形式。故 page 改为 pages。
5.考查动词时态。句意：只需翻页，我就可以了解一周内发生的所有重要事情。此处表示过去发生的动作持
续了一段时间应用现在完成时，且主语为 things，助动词应用 have。故 had 改为 have。
6.考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知 prevent 在句中作非谓语动词，与逻辑主语 it 构成主动关系，故用现
在分词。故 Prevented 改为 Preventing。7.考查连接副词。句意：此外，世界著名人物的故事也同样吸引人，这些故事帮助我了解他们成功的原因。
此处表示“此外，而且”应用 moreover 或 furthermore。故 Therefore 改为 Moreover/Furthermore。
8.考查连接词。此处为宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事情应用 what 引导。故 which 改为 what。
9.考查虚拟语气。句意：作为一名年轻的学生，我建议《环球镜报》刊登指导我们英语学习的文章，我希望
它能更受欢迎。suggest 表示“建议”时，that 从句中，要用虚拟语气，其谓语动词形式为 should + 动词原
形，其中 should 可以省略，主句中的时态不限。故去掉 would 或者 would 改为 should。
10.考查比较级。句意同上。结合句意可知表示“更受欢迎”应用形容词 popular 比较级。故在 popular 前
加 more。
【点睛】后接虚拟语气的常见词
1）在 insist, order, command, suggest, propose, advise, desire, demand, require, request, order, prefer, propose,
recommend 等表示“命令，决定，建议”等动词以及由这些动词引申的名词或形容词引导的 that 从句中，
要用虚拟语气，其谓语动词形式为 should + 动词原形，其中 should 可以省略，主句中的时态不限。
例如：He ordered that all the books be sent at once.
She insisted that she go to the south for her holiday.
2）类似用法的还有 advisable, appropriate, desirable, essential, fitting, imperative, important, impossible,
necessary, obligatory, proper 等形容词；decision, decree, demand, instruction, order, requirement, resolution 等名
词。其后引导的 that 从句均用虚拟语气，其谓语动词形式为 should + 动词原形，其中 should 可以省略，主
句中的时态不限。例如：
It was appropriate that this tax be abolished.
Their decision was that the school remain closed.
3）请注意，当这些词语不是用于表示“命令，决定，建议”的含义时，所引导从句不用虚拟语气。
如第九小题，考查虚拟语气。句意：作为一名年轻的学生，我建议《环球镜报》刊登指导我们英语学习的
文章，我希望它能更受欢迎。suggest 表示“建议”时，that 从句中，要用虚拟语气，其谓语动词形式为 should
+ 动词原形，其中 should 可以省略，主句中的时态不限。故去掉 would 或者 would 改为 should。
