16、completes the sentence. 1 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项 B是一般现在时,表达习惯性动作,不符合原句表达的意义; C是现在完成时,与原句中表达过去时态的 said和 there were不符因为 “发现 ”这一动作应在 said和 therewere之前完成; D表达过去将来时,表示将要发现还没发现的意思,与原句意思不符; A是过去完成时态,表示在过去某一时间点以前已完成的动作, A符合题意。 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 尽管莎翁是已故作家,但这里用一般现在时表示一种生动或者真实的叙述,因此动词应该选用一般现 在时 makes。故 D为答案。 3 【正确
17、答案】 D 【试题解析】 句子主语为 statistics,根据句意判断,此处 statistics表示 “数据,统计数字 ”,故谓语动词用复数。因此 D正确。 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 书名的谓语动词用单数形式,又由于本句是陈述一个事实,故用一般现在时态。因此 B为答案。 5 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 考查主语的数的问题。补充完整应为: The research requires more money than themoney that has been put in,为避免重复,省略 money,而 money是不可数名词,所以谓语应为单数。从时态上看,表示已经投入的钱要
18、用完成时,因此 B正确。 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 主谓一致是指: 1)语法形式上要一致,即单复数形式与谓语要一致。 2)意义上要一致,即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。 3)就近原则,即谓语动词的单复数形式取决于最靠近它的词语,一般来说,不可数名词用动词单数,可数名词复数用动词复数。据此判断, C错误,根据就近原则,谓语动词应为 was,故为本题答 案。此题容易错选 B,句子谓语用 agree是采用了就近原则,即 agree的数同 supporters一致。选项 B表示 “即使 ”,不符合题意,C“作为一个社会主义者 ”,没有让步的含义; Since引导的是原因状语从句
19、,不符合语境,均排除。因此 A为答案。 7 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 as引导让步状语从句时须倒装,只有 B符合题意。 A、 C、 D都不符合 as引导让步状语从句的语法结构。因此 B为答案。 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 as引导让步状语从句句子结构必须倒装,本句中修饰谓语的副词much应被置于句首,因此本题应选 B。 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 此题关键在修饰形容词 dull的只可能是副词,因此只有 however符合题意。 C表示由 as引导让步状语从句,但 as的位置不对; A、 B的语法结构均不对。因此 D正确。 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 考查让步状语
20、从句结构 “be+主语 +选择性表语 ”相当于结构“whether+主语 +be+表语 ”,意为 “不管是 还是 ” ,如: You should do as what he told to you, be itright or wrong。无论对错,你都应该按照他告诉你的去做。因此 D正确。 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 only if意为 “只有 才 “,放在句首的时候,句子要倒装; if only意为 “只要,要是 多好 ”,根据句意, A正确。 12 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 当陈述部分是由 there be句型引导时,反意疑问句中仍用 there,当陈述句谓语部分含有
21、used to时,疑问部分可用 didnt或者 usednt,因此 D为正确选项。 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 在 否定祈使句后面只能用 will you。注意:祈使句的反意疑问句一般只用肯定式,由 lets引导的祈使句,其反意疑问句一般用 “shall we”,而由动词原形引导的祈使句或 let us引导的祈使句,反意疑问句一般用 will you引导。 C为正确选项。 14 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 当陈述部分带有 seldom, hardly, never, rarely, few, little,nowhere, nothing等表示否定意义的词时,附加问句部分的动词用
22、肯定形式。因此 B为正确选项。 15 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本句是祈使句,祈使句的反意疑问句用 will you,因此, B为答案。 16 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 it为形式主语,真正的主语为 waiting for her,放在句尾用来避免句子出现头重脚轻的不平衡状态。因此 D正确。 17 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 在句子 “How much do you think he earns?”中, do you think为插入语,主语为 he,谓语为 earns,根据句意, how much作 earns的宾语。因此 C正确。 18 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 A项
23、中的 appointed所支配的宾语为 John,即 “任命约翰 ”;而manager是对宾语约翰的补充说明,即任命约翰为经理。因此, A为正确选项。 19 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 Mr Smiths passport意为 “史密斯的护照 ”,名词所有格表示所属关系; visitorsarrival意为 “参观者到达 ”,表示主谓关系; Johns travel details意为 “约翰的旅行细节 ”,名词所有格表示所属关系; childrens stories意为 “儿童读物 ”,表示修饰限定。因此, B为答案。 20 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 A中 for the sake
24、 of your friends表示主句的目的; B中 as well as you表示比较; C中 For all his efforts表示让步。选项 D意为 “她的眼睛因读书过度而变红了 ”, from excessivereading表示原因。因此 D符合题意。 21 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项 A时间副词 before意为 “在 之前 ”;选项 B、 C也均为时间副词,意为 “近来 ”。选项 D为表否定意义的副词,意为: “未,尚 ”。原句为肯定句,而 yet一般用于否定句或疑问句中,所以 D不符合句意,故答案为 D。 22 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 nearly,
25、quite,和 almost都是表示程度的副词。 nearly和 almost都可用来修饰不定代词、形容词、副词、动词和介词短语等,此时两者一般可换用,表示 “几乎,大约 ”;而 quite意为 “十分 ”,意思不符合句意要求,故 B为答案。 practically作副词可以表示 “几乎,简直 ”,从语法规则和句子意义上都符合要求。 23 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 从语法上看, wisely修饰的是 refused,但从语义上看,实际上wisely修饰的是 refused to spend his money这个行为的,题干句意为:他明智地拒绝花钱。从语义上看,选项 A为正确选项。 B、 D都是原句意思的片面理解,只是语序不同; C属于过度推断,均排除。 24 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 A中介词短语与 sure一起作表语; B中介词短语作后置定语; C中介词短语作主语补足语; D中介词短语作状语。因此 D为答案。
