12、上下文,对不能在文中找到的词,应注意变换说法,并进行合理的推测。 单项选择 * What about _dictionary on the bookshelf -Its very useful ,I think. A a B an C the D / 答案: C 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “书架上的这本字典怎么样? ”根据意思可知,这本字典应该是双方都知道的,应该是特指,故应用 the。所以本题选 C。 考点:本题考查冠词的用法。 点评:对于本题意思非常重要,只有读懂意思,才知道字典是双方都知道的;然后根据定冠词放在特指的事物之前的用法加以选择。 -Sun Yang is a grea
13、t pride of China. -_ He is my hero too. A Im not sure. B Thats a good idea. C I agree. D I disagree 答案: C 试题分析:根据 He is my hero too“他也是我的英雄 ”可知,应该是同意第一个人所说的。故用 I agree。所以本题选 考点:本题考查日常用语。 点评:应熟练掌握英语的习惯表达法,了解中西方文化的差别;另外,读懂题干是完成本题的前提。 -Hi! Long time no see. -Yes. Its almost three years_ we met last tim
14、e. A while B before C since D until 答案: C 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “自从上次见面,几乎有三年时间了。 ”“自从 ”是 since。而 while“当 时候 ”, before“在 之前 ”, until“直到 才 ”。所以本题选 C。 考点:本题考查引导词。 点评:做此类题目,需要弄清前后句的关系,再选择合适的词。而本句是 since引导是时间状语从句。 -Must I answer it in English -No, you _. You can use Chinese. A shouldnt B cant C mustnt D need
15、nt 答案: D 试题分析: must的回答方式的肯定回答用 must,否定回答用 neednt或 dont have to,不能用 mustnt,因为其表示禁止做。本句的意思应该是 “不,你不必。你能用汉语 ”。所以本题选 D。 考点:本题考查情态动词。 点评:熟练掌握情态动词的 用法,特别是像 must的用法。应该根据实际的情景选择合适的情态动词。 -How much money did you pay for the drink -None. Its _. A free B hard C dear D cheap 答案: A 试题分析:根据 none可知,这些饮料没花钱,故应该是免费的
16、free。 Hard“难的 ”, dear“贵的 ”, cheap“便宜的 ”都不符合题意。所以本题选 A。 考点:本题考查形容词。 点评:对于本题,首先应该注意所给的四个单词的意思,其次应该根据 句子中的信息选择符合题意的单词。 -Can you describe_ -Of course. A what the robber is like B how the robber is like C what does the robber look like D how the robber looks like 答案: A 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “你能描述一下那个强盗长得怎样吗?
17、”“强盗长得怎样? ”是 what is the robber like?或 what does the robber look like?不能用 how提问。故排除 BD;根据题干,本句是一个宾语从句,应该用陈述句语序,故从句应该用 what the robber is like或 what the robber looks like。所以本题选 A。 考点:本题考查宾语从句。 点评:实际上本题不只是考查宾语从句的用法,关键是考查对句型的掌握情况,如果对这两个方面有一个不熟悉就容易犯错。 -Tina, I want to have a pet. How about a dog - I pre
18、fer a cat. It is _ to take care of. A easiest B the easiest C easier D easy 答案: C 试题分析:通过题干,可知题目中提到两个动物 dog和 cat,说明是两个相比较,故用比较级排除 ABD。本句的意思是 “它更容易照顾 ”。所以本题选 C。 考点:本题考查形容词的比较级。 点评:本题的比较级容易受过去用 than而此句没用的影响,所以做题时要注意前后句的关系,确定用比较级。 This piece of music is worth _. A to listen B to listen to C listening D
19、 listening to 答案: D 试题分析: be worth doing是 “值得做某事 ”,故排除 AB; listen to the music只不过这里的 music在前面,故 to不能省略。所以本题选 D。 考点:本题考查固定用法。 点评:完成本题需要熟悉 worth的用法, worth是形容词 “值得的 ”。而 listen to也是固定短语。 -Oh, my God! We have missed the last bus. What shall we do -Im afraid we have no _ but to take a taxi. A decision B a
20、dvice C reason D choice 答案: D 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “恐怕我们除了乘出租车没有别的选择。 ”“选择 ”是 choice。而 decision“决定,决心 ”, advice“建议 ”, reason“原因 ”。所以本题选 D。 考点:本题考查名词。 点评:对于考名词的题目,一般是考查名词的意思,所以应该读懂句子的意思,否则很难做对。 -Its said that scientists have _ a way to deal with the disease(疾病 ) -Really Thats great! A caught up with B co
21、me up with C agreed with D compared with 答案: B 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “据说科学家已经想出处理这种疾病的方法。 ”“想出,得 出 ”是 come up with。而 caught up with是 “赶上 ”, agreed with是“同意 ”, compared with是 “将 相比较 ”。所以本题选 B。 考点:本题考查动词短语。 点评:完成本题,应该根据句子的意思选择合适的短语,并应该熟悉所给的短语。选项中 AB两项比较容易混。 -Would you like coffee or tea? -I prefer tea _ mi
22、lk A to B in C with D on 答案: C 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思是 “我更喜欢带牛奶的茶。 ”故应该用 with。而其他选项没有伴随的意思。所以本题选 C。 考点:本题考查介词。 点评:本题具有一定的迷惑性,如果不注意审题就很容易选择 to,因为在平时的学习中经常将 prefer与 to连用。本句中的 milk并没有在问句中出现,说明不是将 tea和 milk 相比较。如果将 milk改成 coffee,就应该选 to。 -Dont pick flowers in the garden next time, Bill. - _ A Sorry, I wont B O
23、k, I will. C I agree. D Thats all right. 答案: A 试题分析:根据 Dont pick flowers in the garden next time, Bill“比尔,下次不要在花园中摘花。 ”可知,回答应该是 “不再摘 ”,故用 sorry, I wont。而 ok, I will表示 “,好吧,我将要摘。 ”I agree“我同意 ”, Thats all right “没关系 ”都不符合题意。所以本题选 A。 考点:本题考查日常用语。 点评:应熟练掌握英语的习惯表达法,了解中西方文化的差别;另外,读懂题干是完成本题的前提。 Mr. Wu sai
24、d he _ us to the zoo the next week. A would take B will take C take D takes 答案: A 试题分析:通过分析本句可知,本句是一个宾语从句。根据 next week可知,从句应该将来时,故排除 CD;在宾语从句中,主句用过去时,则从句也应该用过去时的某种形式,故用 would take。所以本题选 A。 考点:本题考查宾语从句 的时态。 点评:对于宾语从句应该注意四点: 1、语序:用陈述句语序; 2、引导词:A.that B.特殊疑问词 C.if/whether 3、时态: 当主句是一般现在时,从句的时态根据从句的时间变化
25、 当主句的时态是过去时时,从句应该用过去的某种时态 当从句表示客观事实或客观真理等时,从句要用一般现在时。 4、人称:根据实际情况变换人称。而本题只考察了时态。 -Yummy! The coffee is good. -Thats right. Itll taste _ with some milk. A good B better C best D the best 答案: B 试题分析:根据题干,本句的意思应是 “加上一些牛奶它尝起来会更好。 ”是与上一句进行比较,故应该用 better。所以本题选 B。 考点:本题考查形容词的用法。 点评:做本题时,很容易受以前学过的根据 than来判断
26、比较级的干扰。其实本句中已经暗含着比较了,特别要注意 will一词。 - Where is Jim - He _ to the museum. He hasnt come back. A have been B have gone C has gone D has been 答案: C 试题分析:根据问句和 He hasnt come back.可知,吉姆不在这里,故本句的意思是 “他去博物馆了 ”。 “去了 ”是 have/has gone to;根据 he是第三人称,故用has。所以本题选 C。 考点:本题考查时态。 点评:完成本题首先应弄清句子的意思,然后区分 have gone to“
27、去过 ”和 have been to“去了 ”的用法和人称。 完型填空 完形填空(共 15小题;每小题 1分,满分 15分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、 B、 C、 D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 We have no idea about 1 men first began to use salt.

34、ate。所以本题选 B。 【小题 5】根据题干,本句的意思是 “盐被用来保存尸体。 ”“被用来做某事 ”是be used to do。所以本题选 B。 【小题 6】 keepfrom 是 “阻止某人或某物做某事 ”,是固定用法。所以本题选 B。 【小题 7】根据前面的 was可知,后面应该用过去分词表示被动语态,只有thought。所以本题选 D。 【小题 8】通过阅读下文可知,此处应该是违反法律。故用 law。所以本题选 A。 【小题 9】根据 if a person was caught stealing salt可知,对待罪犯的方式是将他投入监狱。故用 prison。所以本题选 C。 【
35、小题 10】根据题干,本句的意思是 “一万多人因为偷盐被投入监狱。 ”“因为 ”是 because或 because of;根据 stealing salt可知,应该用 because of。所以本题选 B。 【小题 11】根据题干,应该是带更多的盐会被惩罚。故用 more。所以本题选 A。 【小题 12】根据题干,本句的意思是 “将被严重惩罚 ”,本空是修饰 “惩罚 ”一词,故用副词。所以本题选 D。 【小题 13】本句的意思是 “过去盐在国王的餐桌上是很重要的。 ”故用 important。所以本题选 A。 【小题 14】根据题干, “它总是被放在国王的前面 ”。 In the front
