31、led simply because it waspainted white.（分数：70.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：去掉 for）解析：介词误用，属语义错误题。根据句意“每位美国总统都住在白宫，除了乔治华盛顿之外”，可知这里指总统 Washington 是其中例外的一位，并无遗憾之意，故把 for 去掉。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：majoritymajor）解析：词性误用，属语法错误题。根据句意“华盛顿在设计白宫中起了主要作用”可知，part 前应为形容词，而 majority 为名词，意为“大多数，半数以上”，故应将其改为形容词形式 major。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：off

32、rom）解析：介词误用，属语义错误题。要表示一个人的家乡在哪里，介词应为 from。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：longlonger）解析：形容词比较级问题，属语法错误题。根据文章意思，白宫设计得比以前更长、更宽，含有比较之意，且句中并列连词 and 连接的两个形容词应为对等成分，所以应将 long 改为比较级形式 longer。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：first 前加 the）解析：冠词漏用，属语法错误题。该句中 first 后省略了 president，序数词前应加定冠词 the。句意为“第二任总统约翰亚当斯是第一个入住白宫的人”。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：ontointo）解析：搭

33、配错误，属词汇错误题。“搬进新居”应为 move in 或 move into。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：liveliving）解析：易混词误用，属词汇错误题。原句意为“到 1800 年，虽然主要居住区的工程已完成，但其他工程仍在继续”，其中 live 作为形容词时指“活着的”，而 living 才含有“适于居住的，生活的”之意，故改 liVe 为 living。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：sotoo）解析：搭配错误，属词汇错误题。原文说，战火把楼房的内部完全烧毁了，专家们说白宫太危险了，不能居住，所以后来工人们才又重修白宫内部。too.to.为固定搭配，意为“太而不能”。填空项 1:_ （

34、正确答案：underground 前加 were 或 which 改为 them）解析：从句连接词误用，属语法错误题。本句主干部分 More offices were added 结构完整，其后部分是对前部分的补充说明，因而要么作定语从句，要么作同位语。若想使这部分变成“of+which”结构的定语从句，则在句中加谓语 were；若想使这部分变为名词短语作同位语，则改 which 为 them。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：appearingappearance词性误用，属语法错误题。原句意思是说，重建白宫的工作并未改变它的外观。appearing 是 appear 的动名词形式，而 appea

35、r 本身有名词形式 appearance，因而将 appearing 改为名词形式 appearance。）解析：三、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：70.00)Parents can be supportive of suspicions. They can be helpfulto the teacher, or are in need of help themselves. Sometimes, I 1. _think parents are too hard to their children. I have seen many 2. _parents of this kind.

They 4. _criticize the kids over everything having to do with

37、school. Myresponse usually is: “Well, you know, he is really a good kid. He isfine in my class. Maybe you should not be too strict with them.“ 5. _We want parents to realize the fact that teachers areprofessors at working with children. They have observed many 6. _children and many parents. Because

38、of this, and because of theirspecialized training, teachers can be realistic about children.Teachers know whether parents want their children to do well and 7. _to behave well. But teachers know less what children should be 8. _able to do at different ages and stages. They dont expect the3-year-old

39、to do the work that can only be done by the12-year-old. Parents, in the contrary, often expect their children to do 9. _what is usually beyond their age and ability. Obviously, this maymake great harm to the childrens development. 10. _（分数：70.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：arebe）解析：动词误用，属语法错误题。句中 or 连接的前后两部分的动词在时

40、态、形式上应该保持一致，前部分为 be，故应把后部分的 are 也改为 be。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：toon）解析：搭配错误，属词汇错误题。本句意为“我认为有时父母对孩子太苛刻了”，be hard on sb.为固定搭配，意为“对某人苛刻”，故把 to 改为 on。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：whathow）解析：从句连接词误用，属语法错误题。这句话说的是父母诉说对待孩子的方式，因此把 what 改为how。宾语从句当 how 表示方式，是副词，而 what 表示内容，是代词。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：make 后加 a）解析：冠词漏用，属语法错误题。make a fuss 为固定搭配

41、，意为“小题大做”。原句意为“他们检查孩子的作业，对他们的分数小题大做”。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：themhim）解析：一致性错误，属语法错误题。上文讲到作者对孩子的评价，用的是 he，本句接着对父母提出建议：“或许你不应该对他太苛刻”，此句中的他仍指代孩子，故将 them 改为 him。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：professorsprofessional）解析：词性误用，属语法错误题。结合上下文，可知句意为“我们希望父母能够意识到教师在教育孩子这方面是非常专业的”。而句中 professors 意为“教授”，不合句意，故应改为 professional。be professional

42、 at 为常用搭配，意为“在方面是专业的”。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：whetherthat）解析：从句连接词误用，属语法错误题。上文提到教师在儿童教育方面很专业，说明教师对父母寄予孩子的期望也比较了解，故当宾语从句表示的是一种事实，且不带有两种可能性时，引导词要用 that，不用whether。本句意为：“教师知道父母希望他们的孩子成绩良好、举止得当。”填空项 1:_ （正确答案：1essbetter）解析：反义词误用，属语义错误题。同样，前文提到教师只对于儿童教育很 professional，可知教师应该很了解儿童在不同年龄段该干什么，故把 less 改为 better。填空项 1:_

43、（正确答案：inon）解析：搭配错误，属词汇错误题。根据句意，父母对孩子的期望往往超过其年龄段和能力，这种情况正好与教师相反。on the contrary 为固定短语，意为“正相反”，故应把 in 改为 on。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：makedo）解析：搭配错误，属词汇错误题。do harm to 为固定搭配，意为“对造成伤害”。本句意为：“很显然，这可能会对孩子的发展造成很大的伤害。”四、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：70.00)I finished university six months ago and Ive got a degree inbusiness admini

44、stration. I enjoyed the course very much but now Irealize I have studied a lot harder!
