8、uckCGive up DCheer up答案：D本题考查交际用语。从上句可知，说话人“担心明天数学考试不及格”；而从答语人的“Im sure youll make it.(我相信你会成功的)”可推测，是在鼓励对方，故用cheer up“振作起来，高兴起来”。no problem“没问题”；good luck“祝你好运”；give up“放弃”，都不符合语境。5I cant help_the cleaning_Im busy making some dumplings now.Adoing; because Bto do; now thatCdoing; since Dto do; there

12、iment.Awhen was it Bit was when thatCwhen was it Dwhen it was that答案：D本题考查从句的语序及强调句。wonder后跟连接副词when引导的宾语从句，用陈述句语序；该从句使用了强调句式。10_！ Dont get too close to the building of which walls are being painted.AGet along Be onCWatch out DSet off答案：C考查短语辨析。句意：当心！不要太靠近那座建筑物，它的墙正在被刷漆。watch out在这里用来提醒别人注意。get alon

15、arge amount of答案：B句中的them指上文的young dancers；若用many of指“照片中的许多”，不合题意，应该用many；masses of“大量的”，可接可数名词复数或不可数名词；the number of指“的数目”；a large amount of“大量的”，只接不可数名词。14The new bridge is_the one built last year.Athree times as wider as Bthree times the width ofCthree times the width Das three times as答案：B考查倍数表

16、达法。A项wider应改为wide；C项width后应加of。15Sometimes he found_very hard to fall asleep at night, so he went to see the doctor.Ahim BthisCthat Dit答案：D句意：他发现晚上有时候很难入睡，于是他就去看医生了。it作形式宾语，真正的宾语是to fall asleep at night。其他选项都不能作形式宾语。.阅读理解(xx江西)Why should mankind explore space?
