The h

2、arder the shrub is to grow, _.A.the higher price it isB.the higher price it would haveC.the higher the price isD.the higher is the price答案：C解答 考查比较结构。 “the+比较级，the+比较级”这一句型既可用于形容词的比较级，也可用于副词的比较级。故C为正确答案。 3. The critics thought the acting was generally poor. I didnt find _. A.itB.it soC.it to be tooD

3、.it was too答案：B解答 考查省略句。 通常so用于指代上文的内容，且so在此处作动词find的宾语补足语，因此B为正确选项。 4. Tom asked that he _ allowed to take the course this semester.A.could beB.beC.wasD.would be答案：B解答 考查虚拟语气。 此处ask指的是提出要求，相当于demand，因此后面的从句要用虚拟语气，即采用“should+动词原形”结构，其中should可以省略，故本题选B。 5.

4、e _.A.had long hairB.has long hairsC.had long hairsD.has long hair答案：A解答 考查名词单复数的用法及时态一致性。 根据题干可知，本题用的是一般过去时，故排除选项B与D。此外，hair是不可数名词，指全部头发；如果用复数形式则指单根可数的毛发。根据句意“她留着一头长发”，可知A为正确答案。 6. _, he is appointed as general manager of the company.A.Young as he isB.So young as a man ever isC.No matter he is youn

5、gD.A man ever so young答案：A解答 考查让步状语从句的倒装。 这道题考查的是as/though引导让步状语从句中表语的倒装。一般直接将表语提前到句首。由此可知，本题的正确答案为A。 7. Nothing but some chairs _ in the room.A.has foundB.had foundC.were foundD.was found答案：D解答 考查主谓一致及动词语态。 本题应使用被动语态，因此排除A、B两项。当主语后面跟有with，together with，like，except，but，no less than，as well as等词引起的短语

6、时，谓语动词与前面的主语保持一致。这道题中nothing是句子的主语，为单数形式，but some chairs用来修饰主语，因此D为正确答案。 8. More than one company _ involved in this transaction.A.wasB.wereC.to beD./答案：A解答 考查主谓一致。 在由more than，not onlybut also，not justbut，or，eitheror，neithernor连接主语的句子中及在there be句型中，谓语动词的单复数按就近原则处理，即按与谓语动词最靠近的那个主语来确定谓语动词的单复数形式。more

7、than one company尽管是复数意义，但根据就近原则，谓语仍要用单数形式，因此应该选A。 9. Water is to fish _ air is to man.A.thatB.whichC.whatD.how答案：C解答 考查固定搭配。 A to B as/what C to D是固定搭配，表示“A对B来说就如C对D一样”，因此本题应该选C。 10. A group of men were seen _ with each other with their clothes _.A.to quarrel, to tearB.quarreling, tornC.quarrel, tea

8、ringD.quarrel, to be tom答案：B解答 考查补足语。 在这个句子中，前面是现在分词作主语补足语，表示看到他们正在吵架，而后面是过去分词作宾语补足语，表示他们的衣服已经被撕烂了。 11. Mary is 19 years old this year, and she _ 20 next year.A.will beB.is to beC.is going to beD.should be答案：A解答 考查动词时态。 主语+will (shall用于第一人称)+动词原形表将来，表示不以人们意志为转移的、客观上一定会发生的行为或动作。be to do sth. 和be goin

9、g to do sth. 都包含了人的主观意愿。should do sth.表示应该做某事。由此可知本题应该选A。 12. Though it was late in the night, _ he continued to work vigorously.A.butB.yetC.andD.that答案：B解答 考查连词辨析。 在让步状语从句中，though和but不能同时使用，但是though可以和yet连用，表示转折，因此B为正确答案。 13. I was _ study French yesterday, but I changed my mind.A.to be startingB.t

10、o startC.to have startedD.to have been starting答案：C解答 考查虚拟语气。 本句要表达的是“过去打算做却未做的事情”，应该用was(were)+to have done sth表示“本来想做”，故本题应该选C。 14. To drive a car safely, it is _ good brakes.A.essential withB.essential havingC.essential to haveD.essential have答案：C解答 考查it作形式主语。 本句的结构为“it is+形容词+to do sth”，it只是形式主语

11、，真正主语是其后的不定式结构，因此本题正确答案是C。 15. The question is _ can be put into practice.A.how you have learnedB.how what you have learnedC.that why you have learnedD.how that you have learned答案：B解答 考查表语以及主语从句。 在本题中，is后是表语从句，can be put into practice是表语从句的一部分，但缺少主语成分，需要一个名词性成分作主语，故应该用what you have learned作主语，因此本题应该

12、选B。 16. We were suddenly _ when I was speaking to John on the phone.A.hungB.cut downC.cut offD.hung back答案：C解答 考查词组词义辨析。 hung是hang的过去分词，意为“悬挂”；cut down意为“减少，削减；砍倒”；cut off意为“切断，割断“；hang back意为“犹豫；留下”。根据句意可知，只有选项C最为合适。 17.

13、 8 percent of everything she sells.A.salaryB.incomeC.commissionD.pension答案：C解答 考查名词词义辨析。 salary通常指“(按月领取的)薪水，俸给”；income意为“收入，所得”；commission意为“佣金，回扣”；pension意为“养老金，抚恤金，退休金”。根据句意可知，此处需要填入的是“佣金“，因此C为正确选项。 18. Michelle found it difficult to get his British jokes _ to Australian audiences.A.acrossB.dealC

14、.overD.down答案：A解答 考查固定搭配。 get sthacross to sb是固定搭配，意为“使某事被某人了解”，符合本题题意，故选A。 19. The news item about the traffic accident is followed by a detailed report made _.A.on the spotB.on the locationC.on the groundD.on the site答案：A解答 考查词组词义辨析。 on the spot意为“在场，在现场”；be on location意为“在拍摄外景”；on the ground意为“在地

15、面上”；没有on the site这一搭配，正确说法是on site。因此A为正确选项。 20. Despite their good service provided, most inns are less expensive than hotels of _ standards.A.equivalentB.likelyC.alikeD.uniform答案：A解答 考查形容词词义辨析。 alike和likely通常都作表语，故排除选项B与C。equivalent则可作定语，意为“(价值、数量、意义、重要性等)相等的，相同的”；uniform强调的是“一致的；统一的；一律的”。根据句意可知，A

16、最为合适。 21. Peters father asked him to spend his time on something _ researching into instead of playing all the time.A.worthyB.valuableC.worthD.precious答案：C解答 考查形容词词义及搭配。 worth意为“值得”，后面一般跟动名词的主动形式来表达被动含义，意为“值得做”，符合题意；worthy在表示“值得做某事”时，一般结构为worthy of doing sth.；而valuable(有价值的)和previous(宝贵的)在词义和用法上均不符合

17、题意。故C选项为正确答案。 22.

The patients believe that Dr. Smith

18、knows exactly how to put them _.A.rightB.correctC.wellD.straight答案：A解答 考查固定搭配。 put sb. right为固定搭配，在句中的意思是“使恢复健康”。其他三个词correct(正确的)，well(好的)和straight(直的)均不符合题意。因此A为正确选项。 24.

19、B.wishfulC.bumperD.ideal答案：C解答 考查形容词词义辨析。 desirable意为“称心合意的”；wishful意为“满怀希望的”；bumper意为“丰收的，丰盛的”；ideal意为“理想的”。根据句意可知C为正确答案。 25.

20、解答 考查动词词义辨析。 propel的意思是“推动；驱动；推进”；promote的意思是“推动；促进；助长”；strengthen的意思是“加强；增强；巩固”；depress的意思是“降低，减少；压低，抑制”。根据句意可知B最合适。 26. He is too weak to _ his business.A.do withB.do withoutC.do away withD.do up答案：A解答 考查词组词义辨析。 do with意为“处理；对付，处置”；do without意为“没有也行；用不着”；do away with意为“废除；消灭；去掉”；do up意为“修缮；整新；包扎”。

21、由此可知正确答案为A。 27.

We went on a(n)

22、_ to the mountain yesterday.A.excursionB.tripC.tourD.travel答案：A解答 考查名词词义辨析。 excursion意为“短途旅行，远足”；trip泛指“旅行”；tour指“旅游，旅行”，强调最后返回出发地，但是没有限定旅游时间的长短；travel指旅行的行为，多指到远方旅行。根据句意可知，他们去爬山只花了一天的时间，故属于短途旅行，所以A最准确。 29.

23、ther.A.compiledB.gatheredC.collaboratedD.collected答案：C解答 考查动词词义辨析。 compile；卷为“收集；编译”；gather意为“聚集；集合”；collaborate意为“合作，协作”；collect意为“收集”。根据题干中的work together可以推断出两个人是在一起工作，互相协作，故本题应该选C。 30.
