五、第一节
单项填空(总题数:15,分数:15.00)
has been in this large
company for more than twelve years, ______ as a
sales manager.
[A] work [B] working [C] worked
[D] to have worked
(分数:1.00)
A.
B. √
C.
D.
解析:[解析] 考查非谓
语动词。由句子结构看,空格前句子成分完整,故空格后只能是从句或者用非谓语
形式作状语。而由填入
动词work与句子主语Janet的关系来看,Janet无疑是work这一动作的发出者,
故应用
表主动的现在分词。结合这两个方面即可知选[B]。
may move out any
time you want to because you are old enough to
live ______ you want.
[A] why [B] when [C]
where [D] what
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[精解] 本题考查状语从句。句意是
“只要你想,你任何时间都可以搬出去,因为你长大了,你可以
去选择你想要住的地方。” why表示
原因,when表示时间,where表示地点,what表示内容。本句缺少地
点状语,所以这里要用
where来引导地点状语从句。所以本题的正确答案为C。
is ______
interested in physics. She often works at it until
______ into the night.
[A] deep; deep [B]
deep; deeply
[C] deeply; deep [D] deeply;
deeply
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[解析] 考查副词用法。deep和deeply都是
副词,区别在于前者多用于具体事物,后者多用于抽象
事物。从本题来说,“深感兴趣”是抽象的,而“
夜深,则是具体的,所以选[C]。
4.--
--
[A] white
one's
[B] white one
[C] the white one
[D] one the white
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[名师精解] 由于white
one 表示特指,所以前面要加定冠词,故选C。
[解题秘籍] one的前面如果用了序数词如f
irst,second等,或形容词如white,red等,就一定得用the。
has come back safely______of his friends.
[A]
to the much delight [B] to much the delight
[C] to much delight [D] much to the delight
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C.
D. √
解析:[解析] to one's
delight“令某人高兴的”;程度副词much应该放在短语的前面。[知识拓展]
常
用以to开头的短语:to one's
joysurprisepleasureast
onishmentsorrowdelightdisappoint-
mentshockfrightexcitementam
azement。
is
necessary that an efficient worker ______ his work
on time.
A. accomplishes B. can accomplish
C. accomplish D. has accomplished
(分数:1.00)

+动词原形的虚拟语气。
7.______ entering the house, he
immediately found something strange.
[A] At
[B] In [C] On [D] For
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[解析]
本题考查介词应用。本题句意为:一走进房子.他就立刻发现奇怪的 地方。
[知识点]
onupon doing something表示“一…,就…”。例如:On leaving the
airport,he phoned his
family.他一离开机场就给家人打电话。
8.-- Please don't tell anybody. -- I______, I
promise.
[A] can't [B] don't [C] won't [D]
mustn't
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[解析]
本题考查对祈使句的回答。can't意为“不能”;don't用于一般现在时;mustn' c意为“千<
br>万别,一定不,禁止”。根据第一句“不要告诉任何人”,回答应是“我保证不会的”。“不会告诉任何<
br>人”是说完话后可能发生的事,是将来的事,所以应用won't。
9.______ the difficulty of the task, I
shall be lucky to complete it by May.
A.
Regarding B. Given C. Presuming D. Accepted
(分数:1.00)
A.
B. √
C.
D.
解析:Given在这里做介词,意为“鉴于,考虑到”。
we move we
should have a garage sale to get rid ______ some
of this furniture.
A. for B. of C. from D. to
(分数:1.00)
A.
B. √
C.
D.
解析:get rid of意为“摆脱,除去”。句中garage
sale指在“卖主家的车库进行的宅前旧货出售”。
it turned out to be
a problem of no importance, we______so much time
look- ing into it.
[A] needn't spend [B]
didn't have to spend
[C] oughtn't to spend [D]
needn't have spent
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C.
D. √
解析:[解析]
本题考查定语从句和虚拟语气。本题考查的知识点有:(1) 由as引导的非限制性定语从句。
(2)
隐含条件句。根据句意“证实”及其内容这一动作发生在现在,而“调查”发生在过去,说话人显然
认为
“调查”是没有必要的,但该动作已经发生了,所以说话人所表述的只是一种对于他她而言很不情愿
或无
奈的事实,因此以过去完成时来表示对该过去动作(look into)的虚拟,注意情态动词的过去式(虚拟
式)的表达方式,本句意为“正如所证实的那样,这不过是个无足轻重的小问题,我们其实本来犯不着花
这
么多时间去调查。”答案为D。[知识拓展] needn't have done
something表示“不必做什么,但实际上
做了”。
brother and I
really have no idea as to ______ about this sudden
change of the situation.
[A] what to do
[B] to do what
[C] how to do
[D] how
can I do
(分数:1.00)
A. √
B.
C.
D.
解析:[名师精解] 介词后面疑问词的跟法为:介
词+疑问词+不定式。或者是:介词+疑问词+主语+谓语动
词+其他成分。
[解题秘籍]
见第29题题解。
a pencil is partly in a glass of
water, it looks as if it ______.
[A] breaks
[B] has broken [C] were broken [D] had been broken
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[精解] as if 引导的从句常用虚拟语气。表示与现在的事实相反用一
般过去时,如果是动词be,
无论主语是单数还是复数一律用were。表示与过去的事实相反用过去完
成时;表示与将来的事实相反用过
去将来时。根据题意本题选C。
14.______the
determined captain, all the passengers on board
wouldn't have been saved.
[A] It had not been
for
[B] I4ad it not been for
[C] If it had
not for
[D] Not had been for
(分数:1.00)
A.
B. √
C.
D.
解析:[解析]
本题考查虚拟语气。句意:要不是因为有意志坚定的船长,船上的旅客就不会得救。当条件
从句是由if
it had not been for来引导时,可以将if省略,并且倒装,变成had it not
been for结
构。所以正确的答案为B。
ancestors
celebrated ______ birth of ______ child by giving
away red eggs.
[A] a [B] the
[C] the;
a [D] the; the
(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[解析] 考查冠词用法。birth
后有介词结构限定,所以用定冠词修饰;child是不定指的一个小孩,
所以用不定冠词修饰。选[C
]。

九、B(总题数:1,分数:5.00)
Shundagarh is a village
on India's east-facing coast. The Khadra Hills
rise immediately behind
the village, to a
height of one hundred and fifty meters. A simple,
good-hearted old man, whose
name was Jalpur,
farmed two small fields on the very edge of those
hills. From his fields he could
see everything
up and down the coast. If the weather was kind and
the harvest was good, Jalpur
could live
happily enough — not well, but happily. When there
was little or no rain, then he
came close to
the line between a life which was too hard and
death itself.
Last year the weather had been
so kind and the harvest promised to be so good,
that Jalpur had
been wondering whether he
could sell all that he had and live with his son
farther up the coast.
He had been thinking
about doing this for some years. It was his
dearest wish to spend his last
days with his
son and his family. But he would go only if he
could give; he would not go if it
meant taking
food out of the mouth of his grandchildren. He
would rather die hungry than do this.
On the
day on which Jalpur decided that he would harvest
his corn, he looked out to sea and saw
a huge
wave, several kilometers out, advancing towards
the coast and the village of Shundagarh.
Within ten minutes everyone in Shundagarh
would be drowned. Jalpur would have shouted, but
the
people were too far away to hear. He would
have run down the hill, but he was too old to run.
He was preparing to do anything to save the
people of Shundagarh, so he did the only thing
that
he could do. He set fire to his corn.
Immediately smoke was rising high. Within a minute
the people
of Shundagarh were running up the
hill to see what had happened. There, in the
middle of his
blackened corn-field, they found
Jalpur; and there they buried him.
On his
grave, they wrote the words: Here lies Jalpur, a
man who gave, living; a man who died,
giving.

The English author, Richard Savage, was once
living in London in great poverty. In order to
earn
a little money he had written the story
of his life, but not many copies of the bock had
been
sold in the shop, and Savage was living
from hand to mouth. As a result of his lack of
food he
became very ill, but after a time,
because of the skill of the doctor who had looked
after him,
he got well again. After a week or
two the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his
visits, but poor
Savage hadn't any money and
couldn't pay it. The doctor waited for another
month and sent the
bill again. But still no
money came. After several weeks he sent it to him
again asking for his
money. In the end he came
to Savage's house and asked him for payment,
saying to Savage,
know you owe your life to me
and I expected some gratitude from yon.

Richard Savage(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C. √
D.
解析:[精解] 题干问:“这篇文章最好的标题应足什么?”文章讲述了作家没有能
力偿付看病的钱,所以
用名为《理查德·萨维奇的一生》的书来抵账的故事。故事的重点是最后萨维奇用
什么方法来支付他的医
疗费。所以这篇文章的标题选A Life for a
Life,即“一命换一命”或“—生换一生”比较合适。
(2).In the text the
underlined sentence means

clothes to wear and food to eat
[B] Savage had
no money to buy clothes or food

very poor and ill

live on(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C.
D. √
解析:[精解] 题干问:“文章划线句Savage was
living from hand to mouth.的意思是什么?”from hand
to

(3).According to the text we can imagine that
______.
[A] the doctor was poor too
[B]
the doctor was skilled and kind
[C] the doctor
was skilled but cruel
[D] the doctor was glad
to have got the two books(分数:1.00)

?”文章中出现的这位医生肯定是个好心人,因
为他知道萨维奇很穷但还给他看病。然而从他反复向萨维
奇要钱这件事可以看出他也是个缺钱的人。所以
本题的答案选A。
(4).Which
statement is NOT true?
[A] It was the doctor
who cured Savage.
[B] If it hadn't been
because of the doctor, Savage might have died.
[C] The doctor sent bills to Savage for money.
[D] The doctor himself came to see Savage
again.(分数:1.00)
A.
B.
C.

TEAMS
Each soccer
team has eleven players and three substitute
players. The team consists of a goalkeeper,
defenders, midfield players, and forwards. The
aim of the game is to get the ball into your
opponent's goal.
THE MATCH
A game of
soccer is called a match and is split into two
halves of 45 minutes each, with a 15
minute
break at half time. A
referee
(裁判) and two
assistants make sure that nobody cheats or
breaks the rules.
GOALKEEPING
Goalkeeping is a special skill. While the rest
of the team can afford to make mistakes, if the
goalkeeper makes one, it usually
results in a goal for the opposition.

Your Head The best way to catch a ball above your
head is by joining the thumbs and forefingers
of your hands together so there is a small
arch between your hands.
Chest or Head Height
Jump off one leg and cradle the ball comfortably
to your chest. The ball
should rest on your

It
is known to us all that there is plenty of water,
such as rain, water from lakes, rivers and
wells. It seems as if water is always
available around us and we never have to worry
about water
shortage.
In fact water is
rather limited on the earth. With the rapid growth
of population and the increase
of industries,
water is increasing more needed than before. At
the same time, a large amount of
water has
been polluted and wasted every day.
What should we do in this situation?
Everyone should develop the awareness of saving
water, and
bear in mind the symbol of water-
saving. Only in this way our cities will not be
thirsty for water
in the future.)
