3. “We pray for the firefighters who their best to deal with this desperate situation now," the spokesman said immediately he heard about the big fire.
A. are trying B. have tried C. had tried D. will try
参考答案:
A
【详解】考查动词时态。句意:发言人一听到关于这场大火的消息时,就马上说“我们为正在全力以赴处理这个绝望局面的消防员们祈祷。”。引号中句子为直接引语,应用句子原来的时态,由引号中的“now”与句意可知,这句话应使用现在进行时。故选A。
【点睛】动词时态是高中英语常考知识点。这道题最迷惑大家的是句子放在了引号中,用的直接引语。直接引用别人的话语时,句子时态应与说话人当时使用的时态一致。所以本道题分析时态时,不用考虑主句时态,直接按照引号内句子中的时间状语now解题即可。具体解题步骤参看详情。

51. 考查固定句式。主语+had no sooner done ---than 主语+一般过去时态---,(一---就---),这个句式中如果把no sooner放在句子开头,则主句用部分倒装,也就是把had提到主语的前面。故在he前加had。
【点睛】

57. 考查动词过去式。我在火车站附近徘徊了将近一个小时,但他从来没有出现过。此处hang around(闲逛,徘徊),hang的过去式是hung;hang(绞死)的过去式是hanged。故把hanged改成hung。
58. 考查主谓一致。amounts of修饰不可数名词,做主语时后面的谓语动词在人称和数上与amount的单复数保持一致,故把has改成have。
59. 考查固定句式。There is no doubt that---,(毫无疑问),故把句中的about去掉。
60. 考查固定搭配。apologize to sb. for sth. 因某事向某人道歉,故把with改成to。

Everyone in our village likes my father, so he has a sense of humor. On other words, he can make
others laugh easy and people feel happy to be around him. I admire him very much and dream of
that some day I will be as humorous as him. I even asked him how have a good sense of humor,
but what she replied disappointed me. “Not someone can be humorous, because those who is
humorous are usually born to be humorous,” he said. However, later, he adds, “But you can be
humorous too if you know a lot of joke.” That’s why now I’m reading a book of jokes.

21. The United States is one of the few countries in the world that has an official day on which fathers are honored by their children. On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.
However, the idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon(说教) in 1909. Having been raised by her father, Henry Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her.
It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices(牺牲) and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a selfless(无私的) and loving man. Sonora's father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.
In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. Roses are the Father's Day flowers: red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died.
When children can't visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card. Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental(伤感的, 忧伤的). Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they open them. Some give heartfelt thanks for being there whenever the child needed Dad.
56. The United States is special in Father's Day because ______.
A. many people celebrate the day B. only America celebrates the day
C. America makes it an official day D. all men are honored in America
57. At first, Father's Day was fixed on June 19th because ______.
A. Sonora honored her father on her father's birthday
B. Sonora's birthday was June 19
C. it was decided by the president at that time D. her mother died on June 19
58. How many years has passed before Father's Day became an official day since the father's day was celebrated?
A. 4 B. 10 C. 14 D. 24
59. According to the passage, on Father's Day, ______.
A. people will wear the same flowers to honor their fathers
B. only daughters wear red flowers to honor their fathers
C. children must go home to honor their fathers
D. fathers are often honored in different ways
60. According to the passage, we can infer that Henry Jackson Smart ______.
A. was very kind to anyone B. did a lot for his daughter
C. was the first father honored in 1924 D. always help others by giving money
参考答案:
C A C D B
22. There was great interest when a big hole mysteriously appeared in the middle of a field. Engineers were called in to explain how it had got there. They offered various explanations but were not at all sure how the hole had been caused, it was thought that a large bomb which came suddenly exploded, but it was not possible to prove this. A simple, but highly improbable explanation was offered by a man who declares to know well about “flying saucers”; the strange objects which are round in shape and are said to visit the earth from outer space. The man’s explanation may have been nonsense (胡说八道), but at least it was imaginative. At any rate, it was far more interesting than the one given by the army.
After examining the ground carefully the man declared to have seen special marks on the soil quite near the hole, these, he said, could only have been caused by a flying saucer. Moreover the leaves on some bushes nearby had turned yellow because of a strange hot gas which had come from the saucer just before it landed. Even a small tree some way off appeared to have been burnt slightly. A small piece of metal found in the hole itself gave further proof that a strange object had been there. According to the man, it was quite clear that people from another world had been going around the earth trying to pick up information, when something had gone wrong. Because of this they had been forced to land in a field so that the damage could be repaired. The hole had been caused when the saucer struck the earth, while the strange marks nearby were made when it took off again. This, said the man, was the simplest explanation of how the hole had appeared. Judging from the interest the public took in the matter, there must be quite a few people who secretly believe or hope that this simple explanation is the true one.
57. What aroused public interest?
A. A mysterious hole in a field. B. Various explanations offered by experts.
C. A simple explanation given by a man. D. The shape of the flying saucers.
58. The author thought the man’s explanation was________.
A. boring but imaginative B. reasonable and interesting
C. meaningless but interesting D. mysterious and unbelievable
59. The man found a lot of proofs except ____.
A. special marks on soil near the hole B. yellow leaves on some bushes nearby
C. a small piece of meal in the hole D. the remains of the flying saucer
60. It’s said the outer-space people were circling the earth _______.
A. to repair their saucer B. to strike the earth
C. to. collect information D. to make strange marks
