29、查介词的搭配。忙于做某事: be busy with something,所以答案为 B。 2 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查代词。 one代替可数名词,泛指 “任何一个 ”,特指时前面加 the; it常代替文中已经提及的事物,表示 “同一个 ”,但是前边不能加形容词;that是指示代词,后边一般要加其他的名同或代词。所以答案为 A。 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查固定搭配。根据句意应该是起床太晚以至于没有赶上火车。 tooto 表示太 而不能 /没有 。 very和 s。都不能和 to搭配表示这种意思,所以答案为 C。 知识拓展 而 so般和 that连用构成 so
30、that 句型,但后边应该加从句,因此这句话也可改为: Susan got up so late that she didnt catch the early train yesterday morning. 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查形容同的用法。这是 个主系表的简单句,在这作表语的只能是形容问,副词不能单独作表语,而这里只有 wonderful 是形容词, wonder是名词, wonderfully 是副词。所以答案为 B。 知识拓展 wonder是可数名词,如果作表语前边应该加上冠词,所以本句也可说: Thats a wonder但这样一来句子意思就发生了改变,因为
31、wonder意为 “奇迹 ”; wonderful意为 “太棒了,太神奇了 ”,用来表达一种强烈的感情。副词是用来修饰形容词和动词的。 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查动词词义的辨析。动词 bring表示 “带来,拿来 ”; give意为 “给 ”; hold意为 “抓住 ”。根据句意,答案为 A。 知识拓展 应该注意的是:bring和 take是一对反义词,容易混淆,其区别是: bring表示把某物带来,也就是拿到说话的地方; take表示带走、带离说话的地方,所以它们表示的方向正好相反,如: Next time please bring your book here Pleas
32、e take your book away from here 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查被动语态。根据句意,应该是街道被雪覆盖,所以应该用动词过去分词,答案为 C。 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查疑问词。 how many/much 都可用来询问数量的多少,其区别是: how many 后边加可数名词复数; how much 后边加不可数名词; how long用来询问时间的长短,而且后边不能加名词。所以答案为 A。 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查短语辨析。 one by one“一个接 一个地 ”; in the end“最后,最终 ”; al
33、l the time“一直 ”。根据句意,答案为 B。 9 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查代词。 another表示二者或三者以上中的另一个; others表示两部分中的另一部分; rest和 the搭配作代同时,表示所有其余的部分。根据句意,答案为 C。 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查句型。第二句表示和第一句的情况相同时用句型: so+助动词 +主语。所以答案为 A。 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查主谓一致。主语 each 表示 “每一个 ”,是单数,所以谓语动词也应该用单数形式,答案为 A。 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查比较级前的
34、修饰词。其中只有 even 可以修饰形容词或副词的比较级表示程度,所以 答案为 B。 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查连词的用法。根据句意来说,后边一句是前边一句的原因, before是介词,表示时间; though“虽然 ”,表示转折; as 表示原因,所以答案为 C。 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查词的用法。 worth doing sth, “值得做某事 ”。所以答案为 A。 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查时态的用法。原题中是现在完成时态,所以回答也应该用完成时态,这样就可以排除 B, its been 表示 “过去是 ”,与题意不符。所以答
35、案为 C。 第二节 完型填空 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的 A、 B、 C三个选项中选择能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。 16 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查冠问。元音前应该用不定冠词 an,辅音前用 a,所以答案为 B。 17 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查被动语态。根据句意,应该是足球被人们踢,所以应该用被动语态,答案为 C。 18 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查动词。 have“有 ”; get“得到 ”; walk“步行 ”,根据 句意,答案为 C。 19 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查动词。 want“想要 ”,一般用 want to do sth
36、; enjoy“喜欢 ”, enjoy doing sth; decide“决定 ”,根据句意,答案为 B。 20 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查词义辨析。 next“临近 ”,但是要与 to 连用; nearly 是副词, “几乎 ”,不能用在这里; near“在 附近 ”,所以答案为 C。 21 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查短语动词。 “等某人 ”应该是 wait for sb,所以答案为A。 22 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题考查上下文的理解。上边讲的是人们对足球的热爱,而下边就开始讲它的难度很高,是转折关系,所以应该用 but。 23 【正确答案】 A 【
37、试题解析】 本题考查上下文的理解。上句说足球难度大,然后下边具体说明,首先,就是需要大量的跑步,所以答案为 A。 24 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查词义辨析。 do“做 ”; make“使 ” ; turn“转向 ”。这里指的是跑步使足球成为很难的运动,所以答案为 B。 25 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查上下文的理解。 yet“然而,但是 ”; still“仍然 ”; so“所以 ”,表示因果关系。上文讲了足球的难处,下边马上说尽管这样,它也是一样有趣的运动,因此是转折关系,所以答案为 A。 第一节 词语配伍 从下栏所给选项中选出与各项意义相符的选项,并在答题卡 1上将
