1、2012-2013学年重庆西南大学附属中学高二下学期期中考试英语试卷与答案（带解析） 单项选择 * Exploring _ space is exciting, yet dangerous. There is _need for both robots and humans for space exploration. A the; a B a; the C /; a D /; / 答案： C 试题分析：考查冠词：第一空不填， space是抽象名词，前面不接冠词，第二空填 a， There is a need for sth需要 ，句意：探索太空是令人兴奋的，但也是有挑战的，太空探险即需要机器
2、人也需要人类，选 C。 考点：考查冠词 点评：本题着重理解定冠词和不定冠词的区别，定冠词 the表示特指，不定冠词 a/an表示泛指；对于冠词特指和泛指的考察是历年来高考的必考点，平时的学习要多进行积累，仔细分析特指还是泛指。同时，更为重要的是要多去积累习惯表达，特殊表达，这也是近几年高考习惯考的地方。总而言之，多解题、多理解、多积累才是关键。 _ an important decision more on emotion than on reason, you will regret it sooner or later. A Based B Basing C Base D To base
3、答案： B 试题分析：考查现在分词做状语： base sth on sth 把 建立在 基础上 , ，you和 base是主动关系，用现在分词做状语，句意：把重要的决定建立在情感上而不是理智上，你迟早会后悔的。选 B。 考点：考查现在分词做状语 点评：当分词做状语的时候，如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构 成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语；当二者构成被动关系，使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系，可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。 _ details of this job, please contact our manager
4、Mr. Smith at 8765323. A For B In C With D On 答案： A 试题分析：考查介词： A. For为了 B. In在 里面 C. With 一起 D. On在 上面，句意：要想知道这个工作的细节，请联系斯密斯经理号码是 8765323。选A。 考点：考查介词辨析 点评：解答这类题目，首先要理解题干的意思，其次要知道各选项词组的意思，然后像数学中的代入法一样，依次把各个选项意思放入句子中进行比较，不难选出正确答案：。关键还是在平时学习的过程中，多积累多总结多记忆。多记忆一些介词短语是个不错的方法。 I phoned you at 7 yesterday ev
5、ening but nobody answered. Oh, I _my dog in the park then. A walked B was walking C had walked D would walk 答案： B 试题分析：考查时态：句意： -昨天晚上 7点我打电话给你，但是没有人接电话。 -哦，那个时候我正在公园遛狗。这里的 then指的是 at 7 yesterday evening，所以遛狗这个动作是过去某个时间正在做，用过去进行时。选 B。 考点：考查时态 点评：时态题的考查关键是抓住句子的上下文含义和句中的时间状语。要根据时间状语来选择合适的时态，在平时的学习中要注意积
6、累有关时态的用法和各种时态的特殊之处。 Will was lying on the grass, _the sky thick with stars. A his eyes fixing on B fixed his eyes on C his eyes were fixed on D his eyes fixed on 答案： D 试题分析：考查独立主格结构，分析句子成分，前面的是个简单句，两句话之间没有连词，所以逗号后面不是简单句，而是独立主格结构，逻辑主语 +非谓语动词， his eyes和 fix是被动关系，用过去分词，句意： Will正躺在草地上，眼睛注视着星星密布的天空。选 D。
7、考点：考查独立主格结构 点评：当分词做状语的时候，如果分词的逻辑主语与句子主语没有关系，就在分词的前面直接加上逻辑主语，形成独立主格结构，该结构在作用上久相当于一个状语从句。 The teacher, along with 5 of her students, _talking with a foreign teacher in the English Corner at that time. A was B were C had been D would be 答案： A 试题分析：考查主谓一致：当两个主语被 along with， together with， as well as，rat
8、her than， including等词连接的时候，谓语和前面的主语一致，这句话就是和the teacher一致，用单数，句意：老师和她的 5名学生那个时候被带去到 英语角和一个外教老师交谈。可知用过去时，选 A。 考点：考查主谓一致 点评：在英语中，句子的主语和谓语动词要保持数上的一致关系，叫主谓一致。这种关系通常要遵循下面三条原则： 1语法一致原则。句子的主语是单数形式，谓语动词要用单数形式；主语是复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式 2意义一致原则即谓语动词该用单数还是复数取决于主语所表达的内容在含义是单数意义还是复数意义。 3邻近原则谓语动词该用单数还是复数形式，取决于最邻近它的名词、代词或
9、其它词的数。 Gaining the knowledge _ environmental protection will help you to become a qualified environmentalist. A addicted to B concerned about C related to D appealed to 答案： C 试题分析：考查形容词短语： A. addicted to有瘾 B. concerned about关心 C. related to关于 D. appealed to吸引，句意：获得和环境保护有关的知识可以帮助你成为合格的环境学家。选 C。 考点：考查
10、形容词短语 点评：词汇辨析是每次试卷中必然出现的题型，所以平时一定要把词汇放在句中进行记忆。在复习词汇的时候，要依据语言的横向组合和纵向聚合，按照点 -线 -面顺序，构建知识网络环境，对知识内容进行巩固、深化和提升，这样才能提高复习知识点的效率。这样，再做单项填空题时，就会觉得游刃有余。对于英语中的词汇用法，平时要多归纳总结，词汇用法的特殊语法规则更要特别记忆。最好把词汇放在句子中，连同句子一起记忆，这样能够加强记忆。 Try not to work yourself too hard. Take it easy. Thanks. _ A So what B No way. C What fo
11、r D You too. 答案： D 试题分析：考查交际用语： A. So what 那又怎样？ B. No way.没门 C. What for 为什么？ D. You too.你也是，句意： -不要工作太辛苦。放轻松。 -谢谢，你也是。选 D。 考点：考查交际用语 点评：交际用语的考查要根据上下文的含义以及逻辑关系，也要注意中西方文化在表达上的差异，要有跨文化的意识。同时要特别注意西方的文明礼 仪在交际用语中的体现。也要把语法和句意相融合在一起，在平时的学习中要注意积累一些常见的交际用语的句式。 We have to stop talking here outside. Listen, _
12、! Hurry up, or well be late. A there the bell goes B there does the bell go C there goes the bell D goes the bell there 答案： C 试题分析：考查完全倒装句：方位副词： there， here， now， then， away， off，up 等词放在句首，而且主语是名词的时候，句子用完全倒装，就是谓语提到主语前。句意： -我们不能在外面谈话了。听铃响了！ -快点，否则我们就迟到了。选 C。 考点：全部倒装 点评：全部倒装是只将句子中的谓语动词全部置于主语之前。此结构通常只用
13、与一般现在时和 一般过去时。常见的结构有： here, there, now, then, thus等副词置于句首 , 谓语动词常用 be, come, go, lie, run。 如： There goes the bell. Then came the chairman. Here is your letter. I told Sally how to get there, but perhaps I _ for her. A had to write it out B must have written it out C should have written it out D need
14、 to have written it out 答案： C 试题分析：考查情态动词 +完成式的用法：句意：我告诉 Sally怎么到这儿，但是可能我应该把它写下来。本应该做而没做 should have done， must have done过去一定做了， need 后面直接接 have done，没有 to，选 C。 考点：考查情态动词 +完成式的用法 点评：情态动词无论是表达 “推测和可能性 ”，还是表达 “虚拟 ”这一概念，只要是对过去已经发生的事情进行描述，一律用 “情态动词 +have done”这一结构；对现在或将来的事情进行描述，用 “情态动词 +动词或系动词原形 ”。 Many
15、 grocery stores use misting, a process _vegetables are sprayed with water, to keep vegetable fresh. A which B that C what D where 答案： D 试题分析：考查定语从句：先行词是 a process，定语从句中缺少地点状语，用where引导定语从句，句意：很多商店使用喷雾的方法，是用水喷洒蔬菜使蔬菜保鲜的过程。选 D。 考点：考查定语从句。 点评：定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析，关系代词 that, which, whose, whom, as， who在句中做
16、主语，宾语，表语或者定语； where, why, when在句中做状语。要分析句子成分，看缺少什么成分，就选用相应的关系词 _ the unwritten rule goes, study is good, but health comes first. A Which B That C As D What 答案： C 试题分析：考查非限制性定语从句： as 引导非限制性定语从句，意思是 “正如 ”，as在定语从句中做主宾表，这句话里面的 goes是及物动词，表示 “说 ”， as指代主句的内容， which也可以引导非限制性定语从句，但是意思是 “这个，那个 ”，也不能放在句首， that
17、不能定语非限制性定语从句， what不能引导定语从句，句意：这个不成文的规定说：学习好但健康是第一位的。选 C。 考点：考查非限制性定语从句 点评：非限定性定语从句起补充说明作用，缺少也不会影响全句的理解，在非限定性定语从句的前面往往有逗号隔开，如若将非限定性定语从句放在句子中间，起前后都需要用逗号隔开。需要注意 which， as引导的非限定性定语从句是用来说明整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分。但是 which引导的非限定性定语从句中不能放在句首， as引导的非限制性定语从句可以放在句首。 There is a story here in the paper about a 110 -year
18、-old man. My goodness! I cant imagine_that old.

A when B after C before D since 答案： C 试题分析：考查连词：这题用的是固定句型： it will/wont be long before ，要(不了 )多久就 , 这个句型也可以用于过去时，句意：约翰认为不会要很长时间他就会为新工作做好准备。选 C。 考点：考查连词辨析 点评：此题主要考查连词的辨析，选择连词主要是看前后句的关系，因果关系用表因果的连词，转折关系用转折连词，并列关系用并列连词，要求考生具有一定的句子分析能力和词义辨析
