26、ted him from doing so.D.What matters isnot how much you do but whether you try to do.解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查对句子成分的认识和运用。 选项A句子中的It是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式whether to go or not，谓语是is not decided。选项B句子中的主语是It，谓语是will be given，介词短语to whoever comes first作宾语。选项C句子中的主语是his father，谓语是has prevented。该句子中有一个强调句型It is.that.

27、选项D句子中的主语是一个主语从句What matters，后面是系动词is+表语从句。因此，选项A为最佳答案。2.They failed six times but they have made their minds to try _.（分数：2.50）A.seven timesB.seventh timeC.a seventh timeD.the seventh time解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查序数词的用法。 英语里序数词是用来表示人或事物次序的，序数词前面一般要用定冠词the，如the first day、the second house等，但是有时也用a(n)，表示又一个或

28、又一次等，如：I lost the first two games but I want to try a third game. 前两盘我输了，但是我想再试一盘。题干中的句子没有表达次序的意思，只是表示要再试一次，选项D可以排除。因此，选项C为最佳答案。3.Which of the following sentences is INCORRECT?（分数：2.50）A.The cattle in the farm were killed.B.New machinery was introduced into the factory.C.The police were going to sea

29、rch that district.D.All the furniture were sold in the house.解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查主谓一致。 选项A句子中的主语是cattle。这是一个集合名词，其谓语动词要用复数形式。类似的集合名词还有。folk、people、police等，所以该选项和选项C中的句子是正确的。选项B句子中的主语是new machinery。这是一个表示物体总称的不可数名词，类似的还有clothing、scenery、poetry、equipment等，其后的谓语动词要求用单数，所以该选项是正确的。选项D中句子的主语是furniture。这是一个不可

30、数名词，其后的谓语动词要求用单数，但在汉语中通常会认为它是可数名词，会误用复数谓语动词。因此，选项D为最佳答案。4.When I arrived at the meeting, the first speaker _ and the audience _.（分数：2.50）A.had finished speaking, had clappedB.finished speaking, clappedC.had finished speaking, were clappingD.finished speaking, were speaking解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查动词的时态。 在该句

31、子中，中心时间点是我到达会场时。第一位发言人讲话应该是先于此时发生，故用过去完成时态；观众鼓掌应该是与到达同时发生，故用过去进行时态。选项A第一个答案正确，但第二个时态不合句子意义。选项B两个答案均不合句子意义。选项D第二个答案正确，但第一个不对。因此，选项C为最佳答案。5.Which of the following best explains the meaning of You may not go to the party?（分数：2.50）A.You are not permitted to go to the party.B.Possibly you will not go to

32、the party.C.You shouldnt go to the party.D.You can decide whether to go to the party.解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查情态动词的意义和用法。 题干句子中的情态动词may表示“允许”，其否定式有must not(不准)和may not(不允许)两个，如：You mustnt smoke in the hospital. 医院内不准抽烟。People may not pick up flowers in the park. 公园内不准摘花。选项B句子中的possibly表示可能性，与题干中句子意思不符。选项C句子

33、中的情态动词should表示义务、责任、是否该做某事，也与题干中句子意思不符。选项D句子中的情态动词can表示允许，但整句话与题干中的句子意思相差很远。因此，选项A为最佳答案。6.Which of the following prepositional phrases can function as an attribute?（分数：2.50）A.We will go to the parkwithout you.B.There seems to be a solutionto this problem.C.To my delight, he passed the entrance exami

34、nation.D.Fruit is richin vitamin.解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查对介词短语作句子成分的认识和运用。 介词短语在句子中主要用作表语、状语、定语、补语和插入语等句子成分。在选项A、选项C和选项D中介词短语without you、to my delight和in vitamin都作状语，只有在选项B中，介词短语to this problem作名词solution的定语。因此，选项B为最佳答案。7.The directors have a meeting every Friday, unless there is nothing to discuss. Which

35、of the following sentences has a similar meaning?（分数：2.50）A.The directors have a meeting every Friday without exception.B.The directors occasionally have no meeting on Friday.C.The directors have no meeting on Fridays.D.The directors have nothing to discuss at the meeting every Friday.解析：解析 该题是语法结构题

36、考查unless引导的条件状语从句的意义和用法。 if和unless是最常用的引导条件状语从句的连词。unless在意义上等于if.not，如：We could go to a concert unless youd prefer to visit a museum (if you would not prefer to visit a museum). 我们可以去音乐会，除非你更愿意去博物馆。又如：You will fail unless you work hard (if you do not work hard). 除非你努力工作，否则你会失败。选项A、选项C和选项D中的句子都与题干中

37、的意思不符。因此，选项B为最佳答案。8.The idea of traveling through _ space to other planets interests many people today.（分数：2.50）A.aB.theC./D.one解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查零冠词的用法。 零冠词即不用冠词，表示名词的泛指或一般概念，如：Fish live in water. 鱼生活在水中。当space作“太空”讲时，是不可数名词，前面不需要冠词，如：Many rockets have been launched into space. 很多火箭发射升空。又如：It will s

38、oon be common for man to travel through space. 不久以后去太空旅行将是一件很平常的事。因此，选项C为最佳答案。9.While reading the newspaper, _.（分数：2.50）A.a colorful advertisement caught my eyesB.my attention was attracted by a colorful advertisementC.I was attracted by a colorful advertisementD.what attracted me was a colorful adv

39、ertisement解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查分词的意义和用法。 分词作状语时，其逻辑主语与句子主语要保持一致，如：Arriving at the airport, I found that my flight had taken off. 我到机场时，发现我要搭乘的航班已经起飞了。这个例句中的现在分词短语Arriving at the airport可以改写成一个时间状语从句When I arrived at the airport，其逻辑主语与句子主语都是I。独立来看，四个选项都可以用；但从语义来看，该句中分词短语reading the newspaper的逻辑主语应该是人，那么选

40、项A、选项B和选项D均不符合语法规则。因此，选项C是最佳答案。10.As _ announced in todays paper, the Shanghai Export Commodities Fair is also open on Sundays.（分数：2.50）A.beingB.to beC.isD.been解析：解析 该题是语法结构题，考查关系代词as的用法。 “as”引导非限定性定语从句时代替整个主句，对其进行说明，如：He is a famous columnist for several papers and magazines, as is known to the wor

41、ld. 正如大家所知道的，他是一位著名的专栏作家，为多家报纸和杂志撰稿。又如：As was usual with him, he went to climb the mountain this weekend. 像往常一样，他这个周末去爬山了。在非限定性定语从句中，as是主语，其后需要一个谓语结构。选项A、选项B和选项D不能构成谓语结构。因此，选项C是最佳答案。11.How long did it take you to realize he was dishonest? I _ from the start.（分数：2.50）A.looked him throughB.saw through

42、 himC.look forward to himD.saw him through解析：解析 该题是词汇题，考查动词look和see与介词或副词搭配构成的短语动词的意义和用法。 动词词组：look through sb. 意思是“假装没有看见而不理会某人”，如：Yesterday I saw her on the campus, but she just looked straight through me. 昨天我在校园看见她了，可她居然对我视而不见。动词词组look through sth. 意思是“快速查看，浏览”，如：She looked through her notes befo

43、re the exam. 在考试前她匆匆看了一下笔记。没有look sb. through这样的搭配。动词词组see through sb./sth. 意思是“看透，识破(某人或某物)”，如：I can see through your little game. 我看透了你的小把戏。动词词组see sb. through (sth.)意思是“帮助某人渡过(难关)”，如：Her courage and good humor saw her through. 她的勇气和乐观帮她渡过了难关。动词词组see sth. through意思是“把(工作等)坚持完成”，如：We are determined

44、 to see the job through. 我们决心完成工作。动词词组look forward to sth./doing sth. 意思是“盼望某物或做什么事”。因此，选项B为最佳答案。12.Sharp _ make short graces. So dont laugh at those lesser beings who do not have enough to support themselves.（分数：2.50）A.headsB.feetC.fingersD.stomachs解析：解析 该题是词汇题，考查习惯表达法的意义和用法。 Sharp stomachs make sh

45、ort graces是一句英语谚语。其他选项不符合该谚语的表达习惯，应该排除掉。因此，选项D为最佳答案。13.Her audience did not find these works easy to understand though today we found them more understandable . The meaning of the underlined word is _.（分数：2.50）A.fancifulB.comprehensiveC.comprehensibleD.fantastic解析：解析 该题是词汇题，考查形容词的意义和用法。 题干中划线部分形容词un

46、derstandable意思是“可以理解的”，如：Their attitude is perfectly understandable. 他们的态度是完全可以理解的。 选项A中的形容词fanciful意思是“空想的；想象的”，如：He told the children a fanciful story. 他给孩子们讲了一个虚构的故事。选项B中的形容词comprehensive意思是“全面的，综合的”，如：The government gave a very comprehensive explanation of its plans for industrial development. 政府全面解释了工业发展的计划。选项C中的形容词comprehensible意思是“可以理解的，好懂的”，如：One often finds a writers books more compre
