39、ce是固定短语,意思是“首先”。此句意思是:别人经常问到的问题之一,是当初我是如何爱上动物的。3.【答案】A【解析】这句话的意思是:作者在呀呀学语之时,最早发清楚的音是“zoo”(动物园),而不是“妈妈”,“爸爸”,因此,应选clarity“清晰”。填入其他选项emotion (感情),sentiment(多愁善感),affection(友爱)不合逻辑。4.【答案】B【解析】but在此处连接另一个句子(it was the word“zoo”,“it was”被省略),表示转折,意为“而是”,Except, except for, but for的用法接近,表示“除了”。例如:We go th
40、ere every day except Sunday.He answered all the questions except for the last one.For a year the dam remained complete but for the generators.从意思上,逻辑上,都应当选but。5.【答案】D【解析】根据后面的over and over again,应选“repeat”6.【答案】C【解析】小孩想去动物园,便不停地发出尖叫声,故选“voice”。A shrill voice与scream的意思接近。volume(音量);noise(噪音);pitch(音调
41、)均不合要求。7.【答案】B【解析】shut sb.up是指让某人住口,为了让孩子停止尖叫,只好带他去动物园。8.【答案】A【解析】根据后面主句的时态,此处只能用一般过去时。9.【答案】C【解析】a great many后直接跟可数名词的复数形式;a great / large amount of后跟不可数名词;只有a great /large number of后可以跟可数名词的复数形式。例如:I read a great many English books.A large amount of money is spent on tobacco every year.A great num
42、ber of civilians were murdered in cold blood.10.【答案】D【解析】living后必须接介词in,意为“居住”;cultivating耕种;reclaiming开垦;只有exploring有探察的意思。11.【答案】C【解析】add to相当于increase,增加。其余选项后面都不接to。12.【答案】A【解析】later on为固定短语,“后来”。13.【答案】D【解析】attendant仆人;keeper可理解为“饲养员”,但是a student keeper容易被误解为“收留学生的人”;aide有“助手”之义。作者一边上学,一边在动物园里打
43、工,只能当助手。14.【答案】D【解析】which在此引导定语从句,修饰前面列出的动物。15.【答案】D【解析】因为钱是在动物园打工挣的,选successfully更能体现其含义。16.【答案】D【解析】finance my first trip意为“支付我的旅行费用”;pay后应接介词for;其他选项的意思相差甚远。17.【答案】B【解析】此句为现在完成进行时态,选regularly比较贴切。18.【答案】D【解析】此句是由though引导的让步状语从句,应与主句意思相对立。选项中,sorrows和disappointments与主句的appeal to相对立,但sorrows的分量太重。1
44、9.【答案】C【解析】appeal to为成语,意思是“吸引”。20.【答案】B【解析】excursion短途旅行;journey(从一地到另一地的)长距离,具体的旅途;travel旅行,旅游,海外旅行;trip旅行,远足。第二篇答案+解说:1.【答案】C【解析】本句的意思是:“成功或失败在很大程度上取决于你是否能扬长避短。”improvement改进;victory胜利;achievement成果,成就。这三个词都不合题意,只有C.failure“失败”最合适。2.【答案】A【解析】to a great extent是固定短语,意思是“很大程度上”,符合题意。类似的说法还有:to a lar
45、ge extent,to some extent, to an extent, to a certain extent, to that extent, to the extent of。the, some, certain都不能与great extent搭配。3.【答案】B【解析】on与前面的depend构成本句谓语。4.【答案】B【解析】of与名词连用,表示具有某种性质,状态,做表语。置于句首,表示强调。正常语序为:Your attitude is of the utmost importance.5.【答案】A【解析】A person后应当是定语从句,“开始工作的那个人”。6.【答案】C
46、【解析】本句的意思是“如果一个刚刚开始工作的人就深信自己不会喜欢或肯定不适应这项工作,那么阻碍他成功的缺点就暴露出来了。”or后面省略了主语he。ensure保证;certain肯定的(只能用于It做主语的句子里);surely确实地;sure肯定的。7.【答案】D【解析】in ones belief相信。其它选项都不能与belief搭配。8.【答案】C【解析】capable of doing是固定搭配,意为“能够干什么”。9.【答案】D【解析】attempt用做名词,后接介词at,意为“试图,努力”;如果后面接介词on,表示攻击的意思。其他两项都不能与attempt搭配。10.【答案】C【解析】本句的意思是“具有某一工作的必要技能是一个优势”此处应填句子的主语,故选动名词having。11.【答案】D【解析】本句主语是A bookkeeper or carpenter。根据主谓一致原则,其谓语应当用单数is,而不是复数are。being, been都是分词,应该排除。12.【答案】D【解析】on与前面的capitalize搭配,表示“利用”。做不定式help的补语。其它选项不能与capitalize搭配。13.【答案】B【解析】本句的意思是“克服缺点”,应选weakness(缺点,弱点)。idea观点;strength优点;advantage优势。1
