答案

1、C when it comes to意为当提到或谈到……。

2、C 考查动词短语辨析，go off意为(食物等)变坏。

3、C 本题考查语境中的时态综合运用。从内容上看应为完成时，从所给信息看，应为过去时，这样就容易

作出正确选择：过去完成时。

4、A 考查定语从句在语境中的具体运用。先行词为situation应用介词in：in the situation。

5、C 本题考查短语make sure + that clause，句中是祈使句，一般用一般现在时而不用一般将来时。

6、A 本题是在宾语从句中融入了一个感叹句：what fun!

7、C a friend of my grandfather’s意为“我爷爷的一位朋友”。这是一个双重所有格。由于man是第一次提及，因此也要用不定冠词。

8、D 这是一个强调句，后面省略了“that are making so much noise in the garden”。

9、C hit与beat都与“打”有关。hit侧重于“击中”，有时也可以表示“打一下”;beat“打一顿”，指连续地打，另外beat还有“打赢”、“胜过”和“(心脏等)跳动”的意思。

10、C “like a log”意为“睡得死死的”，可推知后句的意思是“我从未有睡得比昨晚更好的时候”。

11、D 由答句“His foreign language is far better than expected.(他的外语比预料的要好得多。)”可推知，这本书对他来讲很容易。

12、D 不定式和动名词均可用来作主语，但要注意它们的一致性。另外introduce是及物动词，这里要用被动式。

13、D 考查动词短语。此处go out意为“不流行，过时，停止使用”。

13、A 考查非谓语动词。turning away from her是现在分词短语作伴随状语。

15、D 考查动词。watch表示观看的过程，see指看的结果，表示看见了、看清楚了。

18、C 考查形容词。usual做“通(往)常的”或“平常的”讲，是指在某处、某一时间或某人身上所常见的东西或发生的情况。

19、C 根据句子后半部分“我已经读了其中的一本”，此句是表示“部分否定”。

20、D 句中的say是名词，意为“决定权”，have/want a(an)…say in…意为“在……方面有(要)决定权”。

答案：

21、D 第一空是表示“不以人的意志为转移的客观事实”，用一般现在时;第二空是表示“将来的动作”，用一般将来时。

22、A 第一句是that引导的定语从句，先行词为不定代词anything，关系代词只能用that。第二句中的anything用在肯定句中，意为“任何东西”，含有“无一例外”之意。

23、A 本题考查动词take构成的短语，take sth off意为“除掉，清除”。

26、C know sb by sight意为“面熟”。

27、B 根据句子的结构分析，句中的nearly all behavior is learned behavior是一个完整的句子在充当主语，称为主语从句。that引导主语从句只起连接作用，没有实际含义，但不能省略。

28、A 本题考查情景交际英语。根据上下文的意义，Mary的答语意为：你问的问题正是我要说的。固定词组take the words out of one’s mouth意为“说出某人要说的话”。29、B 本题主要对动词的时态进行考查。根据句子后面的时间状语over the last two weeks可知，主句用现在完成时，而定语从句说明的是这个英国人的喜好，为一般行为，故应该用一般现在时。

30、B 本题主要考查情态动词的用法。根据回答“还差的很远”可知，她的演讲非常糟糕，于是本题的正确答案选B，couldn’t接比较级表示最高级，本选项的意思为“最糟糕了”。

31、C 本题主要考查不定式各种形式的意义和用法。根据句子的逻辑关系，上海是修建磁力悬浮列车的执行者，不能用被动形式，根据句子的意思，不定式的动作发生在谓语动词的动作之前。

32、D 本题主要考查冠词的用法。第一空复数形式表示西方人这一类别，不用冠词;第二空特指做他们想做的事情的这种自由，须用定冠词the，从而正确答案为D。

33、B 本题主要考查动词的时态。根据句子中的in World War Ⅱ可知，第一空用动词的过去时态;第二空表示要求对方去尝试某项活动，祈使句，用动词原形，于是答案为B。

35、A 本题考查冠词。句中的changes后面有限制性定语从句修饰，所以其前要有定冠词进行特指。

36、A 本题考查句型搭配。本题的关键部分是as his praise(像他的赞扬一样)，由此判断前面用as much,构成as…as…句型。

37、C 本题考查倒装句式。像never，not a…，hardly，little等这样的否定词为了强调或修辞需要提到句首时，该句在习惯上要形成部分倒装句式，即把谓语部分中的助动词、系动词、情态动词或把did/does/do助动词提到主语的前面。

38,B 本题主要考查英语交际用语的应用。选项A表示愿意帮忙;选项B表示同意;选项C表示安慰;选项D表示招待。根据对方的问题，回答只能是B。

39、A 本题主要考查短语动词的意义区别。选项A的意思是“绕道而来，回心转意，苏醒过来”;选项B的意思是“一起来，一道走，进展，出现”;选项C的意思是“进步，进展，成长，开始”;选项D的意思是“(花)开放，出版，露

出”。根据句子的意思，选A。

40、A 本题主要考查对句子的结构的辨析。根据句子的意义可知，第二个as引导一个定语从句修饰先行词a creature;根据句子结构，先行词在从句中作表语，从句的谓语动词的形式由后面的主语all other animals决定用are，于是本题的正确答案为A。

41、C 本题主要对动词及不定式的不同形式的意义的考查。选项A表示意义不很确定;选项B表示经过的行为碰巧已经发生;选项C表示碰巧正好经过;选项D表示选定或愿意正从那儿经过。w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m

42、B 本题主要考查对短语动词意义的辨析。选项A的意思是“停站，进站，靠岸”;选项B的意思是“恢复健康，度过危机，度过危险”;选项C的意思是“阻止，斥责，使停下”;选项D的意思是“把……拉过来，把……划到对岸去”。根据句子的意思，本题的正确的答案为B。

43、C 本题主要考查对句子结构的辨析。根据句子中的逗号可知，逗号前面部分不能是单独的句子，从而排除选项 A. B;再根据动词的过去分词没有被动语态这一知识可知，选项D错误。

44、B 考查“so +主语+助动词”的用法。强调“我的确警告他了，但是他没有听从我的建议。”选项A最具有迷惑性，学生容易受思维定势的影响。“ought to have done sth”表示“该做的事而没有做”，注意上下文的联系。

45、A 考查过去时态。做此题的简便方法是找出句子的主干，“ Lang Ping ___ volleyball in China for almost twenty years.”。然后用代入法即可选出答案。

46、A any和前面的not构成“not any more than=no more than”短语，意思是“和……一样不”。“一个没有生活经验的演员和没有大量实践的舞蹈演员一样，不会扮演好自己的角色”。

47、B 考查冠词的用法。前者表示数量“一个”，后者表示种类“一种(非常畅销的书)”。

48·B 时态考查。乘客警告司机当心前面的袋鼠，司机回答，“已经绕过去了，我们的确很幸运”，“That was lucky”，说明事情发生在过去，所以应用过去时。

49、C 本题考查介词搭配。题意为“很多观众想知道一个天生聋哑的人会对音乐有怎样的理解”。搭配结构为the idea of music。

50、A 本题考查短语devote oneself to doing something的用法，以及短语rather than要求句子前后保持平衡，所以本题应选择A。

51、B 本题考查句子的意思和短语的用法：anything but的意思是“根本不是”;结合句子，可以这样理解：“我还不能确定他的身份，但我敢断定，他根本不是教师”。

52、B

53、B

54、D

55、D 根据答语No，我们可以推断出选D，anywhere but in Wuhan是“绝对不在武汉”、“肯定不在武汉”的含义。w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m

56、B make for…向某地走去;m

ake off后常接介词，表示“从……跑掉”;make out有“看出、理解、开(收据等)、进展、装出”等含义;make up有“编造、和解、弥补、化装、构成”等含义。

57、B come clos e to意为“几乎，差不多”，后面接动词的-ing形式，根据题意应用其被动形式。
