27、sures to replace the old and used vehicles 答案: Ⅰ.单项填空 1.C make sense有意义,讲得通。 2.B under construction在建设中;under control在控制之下;under discussion在讨论中;under repair在修理中。句意为:这项正在建设中的工程将于这个月底完成。 3.A or在“祈使句+or+分句”的句型中,表示“否则”。这种句型相当于一个包含条件状语从句的复合句。本句相当于:If you don’t remove the glass,it will be knocked dow
28、n. 4.A historical历史上的,与历史有关的。句意为:这本以历史事件为依据的书对你学习历史有帮助。 5.B 本句中suggest意为“建议”,要求其宾语从句使用“(should)+动词原形”这一结构,因为law与pass之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以使用其ed形式。 6.D hold back抑制。句意为:吉姆能够抑制自己的愤怒因此这两个男孩之间的争吵就避免了。 7.D looking very old相当于that/which looks very old,作后置定语,修饰tower。date from=date back to意为“始于”,常用一般现在时。 8.C c
29、ome true实现,一般不用于被动语态。realise作“实现”讲时,在本句中应使用其被动语态;carry out执行,落实;finish完成,均不符合句意。 9.B 连词辨析。答语Yes后面省略了I will (go to Kathy’s wedding party),意思是:不,我去,如果我被邀请的话,if I am invited。 10.C of value=valuable有价值的,作后置定语。句意为:你会发现这张地图在帮助你游览伦敦方面很有价值。 11.B 本题考查动词suggest的用法。本句意为:“经理建议我们开个会来讨论这个问题。”“建议某人做某事”应该用sugges
30、t sb.doing sth.,不能用suggest sb.to do sth.结构。 12.C 本题考查易混动词辨析。remove去掉。本句意为:“我想要你把我的名字从你的名单上去掉。我不想卷入这件事中。”modify修饰;weed锄去(草等);guide指导,领导。 13.D grow up为不及物动词短语,意为“长大”;bring up为及物动词短语,此处为被动语态;引导非限制性定语从句的引导词在从句中作宾语,故用which。 14.C 该题考查形容词作定语的用法。应注意根据句意选用意义恰当的形容词。该句的正常语序为“...but skills are of at least___
31、importance” equal importance表示“同等重要的”。 15.A conditions (pl.)条件,环境;experience作“经历”讲是可数名词,作“经验”讲是不可数名词。 Ⅱ.阅读理解 【语篇解读】 本文谈论了一小部分人为躲避债务,逃避现实,不辞而别甚至从此消失的现象以及由此引发的问题。 1.C 细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句“Eileen was astonished...”可以断定C“她不明白为什么”是正确答案。其余三项均不符合文章意思。 2.A 细节理解题。依据文章第二段的“without so much as a note or a
32、goodbye”可知A项正确。 3.D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段可知答案为D。 4.D 主旨大意题。A项和C项的范围太广,B项偏离文章主旨,只有D项“遗弃及其带来的影响”符合文章主旨。 5.B 理解判断题。依据第四段第二句“It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties”可知B项正确。 6.B 标题归纳题。伦敦计划在2012年奥运会前成为“全球最清洁、最环保城市”是本文的核心。文章开门见山,直奔主题,这是最近三年来高考命题人所
33、青睐的命题方式,值得考生高度重视。 7.B 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“8,300 worn and used diesel (柴油) buses,which could be replaced by lowcarbon vehicles”可知,B项不符合文意。 8.A 词义猜测题。由下文“What we should do in Seoul is agree that we will stop the endless addiction of mankind to the internal combustion engine (内燃机)”可知全球40个大城市的市长齐聚首尔,参加第三届抵制全球变暖的峰会。 9.B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“Leaders of the world’s 40 largest cities are meeting in Seoul this week for a summit on combating global warming”可知,首尔会议的主题是抵制全球变暖。 10.A 推理判断题。文章最后一段的最后一句就是画龙点睛之笔——伦敦市使用柴油公交车的时代就要结束了。这句话说明了伦敦下一步的目标。因此,若有下文,应是讲实现这一目标的具体措施。
