2、人口都居住在农场。故选 D。 考点：考查分数和主谓一致。 - Ill teach him again because he hurt me much. - _. Forgiving others is better than blaming. A Can you do it B Dont overdo it C Do you dare to D I never agree more. 答案： B 试题分析：考查语境理解。对话意思是：因为他伤我很深，所以我得再教训他一次；后者说：别做的过火了，原谅他人好过责怪他人。在这里 A、 C、 D意思分别是 ;你会这样做吗 ;你害怕这样做吗 ;我完全同意。
3、这三者都不符合上下语义。 考点：考查语境理解。 The boy _ by the window is the only one of the students who _ from the countryside in our school. A seated; are B seating; was C sat; were D sitting; is 答案： D 试题分析 :考查现在分词作后置定语及定语从句中的主谓一致。 the boy作的是主语， sit是用来修饰 the boy的，应该是主动形式，而不是被动，男孩是自己坐的，不是被坐的，所以用 sitting，而不是 seated。 Sea
4、ting的意思是为 .提供座位。one of+名词，后面的谓语动词应该用单数。主句的时态用的是一般现在时，所以从句也应该用一般现在时。句意：这个坐在窗户边的男孩是唯一一个从乡村来到我们学校的学生。故 选 D。 考点：考查现在分词作后置定语及定语从句中的主谓一致 _, I have never seen anyone whos as capable as John. A Now that I have traveled so much B As long as I have traveled C As I have traveled so much D Much as I have travel

9、 saved _. A for little she earns B with little she earns C what little she earns D how little she earns 答案： D 试题分析：考察名词性从句。显然名词性从句不能用 for 和 with引导， what little后面要接一个不可数名词，不能直接接动词。比如： We gave him what (little) help we could. 我们给了他我们力所能及的帮助。表示 “她挣了多少钱 ”，一般用 how much she earns ,应该用 how引导，而不是 what；这一题是强

A which; that B that; where C that; that D which; where 答案： A 试题分析：考查强调句。第一空是定语从句，因为先行词前有程度副词 very修饰，因此只能用 which，后一空是强调句标志，只能用 that。整个句
11、子强调的是地点状语。句意 ：正是在这个用石头做成的屋子里我度过了我的童年。故选 A. 考点：考查强调句 - Jennifer is having a hard time getting accustomed to new surroundings in Australia. - I know. But Im sure she will _ in no time.

A asked B having asked C being asked D Asking 答案： D 试题分析：考查目的状语。这里是动词 ing做目的状语。 A reporter是主语，所以是主动形式，应该直接在动词后加 ing。同时，这件事还没有发生，所以不能用 hav
14、e。句意：这个记者出现在爱迪生的实验室门前就是为了采访他。故选 D。 考点：考查目的状语 - Is Tom still smoking - No. By next Saturday he _ for a whole month without smoking A will have gone B will have been C will go D has been going 答案： B 试题分析：考查将来完成时。所以应该用 will have done。其中 go是一个瞬间动词不能和一段时间搭配，应该用 be。句意：到下个星期六他就整整一个月没有抽烟了。故选 B。 考点：考查将来完成时。
