六、作文(1題)81.Directions:Forthispart,youareallowed30minutestowriteacompositiononthetopic"HowIFi-nanceMyCollegeEducation".Youshouldwriteatleast120words,andbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinegiveninChinesebelow：1.上大學的費用（tuitionandfees).可以通過多種途徑解決；2.哪種途徑適合于我（說明理由）。

參考答案

1.B解析：此處是對將來情況的假設。虛擬條件句的謂語部分為should，had或were時，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在從句的主語之前，構成主謂部分倒裝。

2.A解析：此題考查反意疑問句的用法。主句為祈使句，因此其反意疑問句用willyou。

3.B考查反義疑問句。原句應是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反義疑問句的規(guī)則是陳述部分是肯定式，疑問部分應是否定式。Wouldthink表示推測，疑問部分也應選擇would。選項B是正確的?！揪渥哟笠狻磕汶y道還認為他已經忘掉了，是嗎?

4.D

5.D

6.A解析：根據(jù)上文提到“findone”，故下文中也應填one，表示泛指。

7.B

8.A【句子大意】新打字機的價格是二手貨的三倍。

9.D解析：which修飾非限定性定語從句，指代前邊一句話。本題涉及句法知識——簡單句、并列句和復合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(簡單句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(復合句)

10.D解析：本題測試形容詞辨析。四個選項的意思分別是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正義的”，“僅僅的”。根據(jù)句意，D項正確。本句大意為：他僅僅把它作為一個細節(jié)來描述，而我卻認為它是這個計劃中最重要的部分。

11.D本題考查時態(tài)。

【應試指導】句意：當你寫信回家的時候，請代我向你的妻子問好。在時間狀語從句中用一般現(xiàn)在時代替一般將來時。

12.C解析：副詞so置于句首，句子應該用倒裝語序，某人受傷用sb.beinjured來表示，故答案為C。

13.D解析：本題考查動詞搭配。doone'shomework“做作業(yè)”；makemistakes“犯錯誤”。句意為：做作業(yè)，還要保證別犯錯誤。

14.B解析：本題考查固定搭配的用法。當否定詞位于句前時，得出結論應用reach/achievein/arriveatconclusion，故選B。

15.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導的從句中，謂語動詞應用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結合語態(tài)，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

16.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。給她臉上澆些水，或許她會醒過來。本題考查詞組辨析。comeround：過訪，繞道而來，蘇醒過來；comeback：回來，恢復；comeagain：再說一遍，重復一遍；comeout：出來，傳出。

17.A本題考查祈使句型：

【應試指導】句意：Mary，到這里來，其余的人待在原處。根據(jù)句子的結構可判斷出這是個祈使句。所以要用動詞原形開頭。Mary在句中不是

主語，而是“呼語”。

18.B

19.C

20.B解析：encourage：鼓勵、鼓舞；discourage：使泄氣；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根據(jù)句意只有選B。

21.B

22.A解析：shape意為“(女人的)姿態(tài)，身段”；form意為“形狀，形態(tài)”；appearance意為“外表，樣子”；body意為“身體”。由題意知應選A。

23.A解析：反問疑問句的陳述部分是肯定式時，疑問部分用否定式。以letme或letus起始的反問疑問句，疑問部分用willyou或won'tyou，所以選項A是正確的。

24.A

25.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做過某事。注意區(qū)別forgettodosth。忘了而沒有做某事。

26.A

27.C解析：much用在句中修飾比較級better。

28.D

29.A本句考查兩個并列句之間的連接的詞。題干的意思是：“氣球能夠浮在空氣中正如船能夠浮在海面上一樣。”在四個選項中，只有A項的justas有“正如，猶如”的意思。故選A。

30.C
