A a; a B an; the C a; the D the; the 答案： B 试题分析：句意：多么诚实的一个孩子啊！并且他是所有当中最好的学生。结合语境可知前文泛指任何一个诚实的男孩，故用不定冠词。 Honest词首音素是元音，故不定冠词用 an。下文用于形容词最高级前面，表示特指某一个人，故用定冠词。选 B。 考点：冠词 I dont want to watch TV this even
2、ing. Ill listen to music _. A instead of B also C too D instead 答案： D 试题分析： instead of代替，不是 而是； also也，用于句中； too太，也用于肯定句尾； instead代替，反而。句意：今晚我不想看电视，我反而想听音乐。结合语境可知选 D。 考点：短语辨析 点评：解答此类题型的要点是了解各个短语的基本含义及用法的不同，同时注意 其表示多个含义的现象，然后结合语境选择合适答案：。 The desk is made_ wood and the wine(酒 ) is made_ rice.

3、B from, from C of, from D from, of 答案： C 试题分析： be made of和 be made from都表示 “由 制成 ”，主语为制成品。 1.be made of 表示制成成品后，仍可看出原材料是什么，保留原材料的质和形状，制作过程仅发生物理变化。 2.be made from 表示制成的东西完全失去了原材料的外形或特征，或原材料在制作过程中发生化学变化，在成品中已无法辨认。 句意：桌子是有木材制成，酒是有大米制成。结合语境可知前者可以看出原料，后者不能看出原料，故选 C。 考点：介词辨析 点评：英语介词的一个特点是一词多义，并且介词间语义交叉现象很
4、多，习惯用法也很多，有时很难从词义上区分开来。故学习中要注意不断总结，熟记一些介词和动词的固定搭配用法及习惯用法，是完成此类问题的捷径。 I never know this he tells me.

A sheeps, kangarooes B sheep, kangaroo C sheep, kangaroos D sheeps, kangaroo 答案： C 试题分析：我们在澳大利亚可以看见绵羊和袋鼠。 Sheep的复数形式和原形一致， kangaroo的复数是在词尾直接加 s，故选 C。 考点：名词的数 点评：英语中名词有可数名词与不可数名词之分，可数名词又有单复数之分，当可数名词的数量不是一个时，要变成复数形
6、式，其构成规则也比较复杂，需要不断总结记忆。不可数名词大多是一些物质名词和抽象名词，没有数的变化，需要注意的是，一些在汉语中明显可数的名词，在英语中往往不可数，也需要加以总结，注意了解中西文化的差别，不能以中式思维思考英语问题。 Do you write a report _ an animal _ danger for the club A about; on B on; in C to; from D in; with 答案： B 试题分析： about关于； on在上面，在某方面； in在里面； to到，向； from来自，从 ； with带有，伴随。句意：你为俱乐部写一个关于濒危动物的

A cheapest B cheaper C more expensive D
11、 most expensive 答案： B 试题分析： cheapest最便宜的； cheaper比较便宜的； more expensive更贵的；most expensive最贵的。句意：在这两个 T恤中，我要选择这个便宜的，以省下钱来买一本书。英语中在两个当中进行比较用比较级，结合语境可知选 B。 考点：英语中的比较 点评：英语中在表示两个事物进行对比时，一般用比较级结构，常见搭配结构为比较级 +than，但是当比较范围确定在两个事物之间时， 即使句子结构有所不同也用比较级。也就是说，只要是两个事物进行对比，不管什么结构都用比较级。形容词的最高级表示在三个及三个以上的多个中进行比较，确定其
12、比较范围是解答此类问题的关键 ,注意形容词最高级是特指前面定冠词不能省略。 _ your geography book here tomorrow. Dont leave it at home again. _ . A Take; No, I dont B Take; No, I wont C Bring; No, I dont D Bring; No, I wont 答案： D 试题分析： take带走； bring带来。句意：明天把你的地理书带到这儿来。不要再把它丢在家里了。英语中对于祈使句的回应一般用将来时态。结合语境可知选 D。 考点：动词辨析 点评：该题型是属于基础题型，是必考内容。
