20、r Vocabulary 为题写一篇 150 词左右的英语短文。自考英语（二）综合模拟试卷 8 答案与解析一、填句补文1 【正确答案】 C【试题解析】 空格处于句末，根据文中空格前内容介绍：显然，大多数情况下，我们的生活中最早的老师是我们的父母，而他们一般都参与发展和教育自己的孩子。同时结合空格后的内容，可知选项 C 最符合逻辑。2 【正确答案】 F【试题解析】 根据空格前后内容以及段落主题句“First of all，not all parents are good teachers(首先，不是所有的父母都是好老师)”，可知选项 F 最符合逻辑。3 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 根据段落主题

21、句“Moreover，some parents are qualified as good teachers，but not all ofthem are the best ones(有些家长是合格的好老师，但并不是所有的家长都是最好的老师)”，可知选项 A 最符合逻辑。4 【正确答案】 D【试题解析】 空格处于段落句末，根据段落主题句以及空格前“Therefore，to be a professional in acertain field today takes much longer time than ever before。(因此，今天想要在某一特定领域成为专业人士要比以往任何时候都

22、需要更长的时间)”，可知选项 D 最符合逻辑。5 【正确答案】 E【试题解析】 根据文中段落主题句“Parents may，nevertheless，help their children much more than dogood teachers(尽管如此，家长能够比好教师更多地帮助孩子)” ，得知选项 E 最符合逻辑。二、填词补文6 【正确答案】 E【试题解析】 此处需要填一个与 in 搭配的形容词。备选单词中共有三个形容词：popular 意思是“受欢迎的”，通常的搭配是 be popular with；famous 意思是“出名的”，通常的搭配是 be famousfor；rich

23、意思是“富于，富有”，通常的搭配是 be rich in。此处填 rich 既符合词组搭配又符合原句意思：“波多黎各，一个加勒比海地区的岛国，富于悠久的历史和卓越的自然美景，有自己独特的美食”，因此此题应选 E。7 【正确答案】 D【试题解析】 定冠词后面接名词作主语，备选单词中有三个名词：dishes 意思是“菜肴，食品”；island 意思是“小岛”；contributions 意思是“贡献，奉献”。此处应该选 island，因为此句上一句说道“波多黎各是加勒比海地区的一个岛国”，提到了island 这个单词，此句意思是“来到这个小岛的移民们帮助形成了当地的菜肴”，因此此题应选 D。8 【

24、正确答案】 L【试题解析】 此处需要填一个名词，第二题已经分析过备选单词中的三个名词，island 已用过，故排除，剩下 dishes 和 contributions，make contributions to 属于固定搭配，意思是“为做贡献”，dishes 放在这儿意思不通，故排除。此题旨在考查固定词组的用法，因此此题应选 L。9 【正确答案】 C【试题解析】 此处缺少谓语，需要填一个动词。备选单词中有两个动词：mixed和 included。mixed 意思是 “混合”，是不及物动词，后面不能直接接宾语 food，故排除；另外需要注意备选单词中的 including 是个很强的干扰项，意思

25、是“包括”，但 including 是介词，不能作谓语动词，从语法上讲不通，故也排除；included 为正确答案，意思是“包括”，因此此题应选 C。10 【正确答案】 G【试题解析】 此句句子的主要成分齐全，因此填一个副词比较适合。备选单词中只有 heavily 一个副词，heavily 放在这儿修饰动词 influence，此句意思是“泰诺人的菜肴深受西班牙人的影响”，因此此题应选 G。11 【正确答案】 H【试题解析】 此处旨在考查固定词组搭配，能与 with 搭配又适合此句意思和语法的单词只有 mixed，be mixed with 意思是“与 混合”，此句意思是“泰诺人的烹饪风格混合

26、了西班牙人和非洲人的想法并创造了新的菜肴”，因此此题应选 H。12 【正确答案】 J【试题解析】 此处介词 by 后需要填一个动名词，备选单词中只有两个动名词：bringing 和 taking，这两个词是一对反义词，一个是“带来”，一个是“带走”，通过上下文意思，不难判断 bringing 符合句意“西班牙人通过向小岛引进来牛、猪、羊等扩大了这儿的食物选择”；另外需注意 including 是介词，不是动名词，这个词是个干扰词，需要首先排除，因此此题应选 J。13 【正确答案】 I【试题解析】 此处需要填一个形容词，能与 for 搭配又适合此句意思和语法的形容词只有 famous，be fa

27、mous for 意思是“以而出名 ”。此题旨在考查固定词组搭配，因此此题应选 I。14 【正确答案】 B【试题解析】 此处需要填一个形容词作表语。备选单词中三个形容词已用了两个：famous 和 rich，现只剩下 popular；此外，此句上句说到红辣椒在波多黎各很受欢迎，此句最后用了副词 too“也”，那说明微辣口味也很受欢迎，所以顺承句意，popular 为正确答案，因此此题应选 B。15 【正确答案】 A【试题解析】 此处需要填一个名词作宾语。备选单词中的三个名词 contributions和 island 已用过，现只剩下 dishes“菜肴”，dishes 非常适合此句句意“它是

28、在油里炸过之后然后再添加到其他菜肴上”，因此此题选 A。三、完形补文16 【正确答案】 Reducing【试题解析】 本句空白处放在句首，分析句法得出本句主语不完整。因此，把提示词动词 reduce 去掉尾字母一 e 加上一 ing 改成动名词 reducing 作主语。由于该词出现在句首，在拼写的时候注意首字母大写。17 【正确答案】 performance【试题解析】 本句空白处放在物主代词 their 后面提示需填入名词，因此，把提示词动词 perform 加上名词后缀一 ance 改成 performance 即可。18 【正确答案】 elementary【试题解析】 本句空白处放在

29、and 前面提示填入词应和 and 之后的词性保持一致，因此把提示词名词 element 加上后缀-ary 改成 elementary(基本的)即可，elementary school 是固定搭配，意思是 “小学”。19 【正确答案】 learning【试题解析】 本句空白处放在 and 前面提示填入词应和 and 之后的词汇词性保持一致，因此，将提示词动词 learn 加上后缀一 ing 改成现在分词 learning 即可。20 【正确答案】 weekly【试题解析】 本句空白处放在名词短语 performance reports 前面，提示需填入形容词来修饰该名词短语。因此把提示词名词

30、week 改成形容词 weekly(一周一次的)即可。21 【正确答案】 recalling【试题解析】 本句空白处放在主句的定语从句里，观察句法可以发现该空是为了考查短语 have trouble(in)doing sth(做某事有困难 )。因此，把提示词动词 recall加上一 ing 改成 recalling 即可。22 【正确答案】 paying【试题解析】 观察本句句法可以发现实际该空是为了考查短语 have difficulty(in)doing sth( 做某事有困难)。因此，把提示词动词 pay 加上一 ing 改成 paying 即可。23 【正确答案】 deficiency

31、【试题解析】 分析本句结构发现，本句空白处连同空白处前的 sleep 作 effects 的定语，根据句意可以判断出此空需要填入名词。因此把提示词形容词 deficient 改成名词 deficiency 即可。24 【正确答案】 healthy【试题解析】 本句空白处出现在名词 kids 前面提示需要填入形容词来修饰它，因此把提示词名词 health 改成 healthy 即可。25 【正确答案】 consideration【试题解析】 本句空白处实际是考查 takeinto consideration(把某事考虑进去)这一短语的用法。因此，把提示词动词 consider 改成名词 cons

32、ideration 即可。四、短文写作26 【正确答案】 The Profit of Increasing Our VocabularyWe may find increasing our vocabulary difficult or troublesome in our English learning.

34、ble. We will find it much easier to follow the ideas in our textbooks or the English newspapers or the articles on the Internet when we do not have to continually run to the dictionary to look up unknown words. If we are not stumbling over unfamiliar words, we will become more eager to read and not discouraged when we do come across an unknown word. As a result, we will read faster and more intelligently, become more knowledgeable, and hence better informed about the world around us.
