答案：appointment

m.單句改錯(cuò)（io分）

31don'tknowhernewaddress,Ican,twritetoher.

解析：這是個(gè)表示因果關(guān)系的句子。由于漢語與英語存在差異：漢語是意合法，不太注

重形式，而英語是形合法，非常注重形式，因此，這個(gè)句子譯為復(fù)合句，就要在原因狀語前

加引導(dǎo)詞because或as。

答案：前加Because或As

32Manyforeignersfeel(find)difficulttolearnChinese.

解析：tolearnChinese應(yīng)是feel(find)的賓語，英語中習(xí)慣用形式賓語it代替，

放在賓語補(bǔ)足語(?般用形容詞)的前面，而將真正的賓語放在句尾。

答案：Difficult前加it

33Whenwillthesportsmeethold?

解析：hold作“舉行”講時(shí)是及物動(dòng)詞，因此應(yīng)該用被動(dòng)語態(tài)表示“運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)被舉行”。

答案：hold—beheld

34Itkeptrainfortwodayslastweek.

解析：keep后跟名詞才能表示“連續(xù)、反復(fù)、不斷……”的意思。

答案：rain-braining

35LiMingtakesinterestinginEnglishverymuch.

解析：由“動(dòng)詞+名詞+介詞”構(gòu)成的短語，動(dòng)詞后若加修飾語要放在名詞前面，因?yàn)?/p>

該名詞是表示該短語動(dòng)詞意思的中心詞，其基本意思是由該名詞表示的。類似用法的常用短

語動(dòng)詞還有showconcernfor(關(guān)心)，payattentionto(注意)等。

答案：interesting->interest

36TheyareexamininginEnglish.

解析：“examine”用主動(dòng)形式的意思是指"考別人”，而此句含有“他們正在被考"的

意思，因此應(yīng)該用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)的被動(dòng)形式。

答案：examingfbeingexamined

37Ilookedformykeyeverywhere,butIdidn，tfind.

解析：在漢語中，在前面一句或同一句中前面已出現(xiàn)過的名詞，在后面的句子中通常省

略，而在英語中不能省略，要用代詞表示出來。

答案：find后加it

38Itistime(that)Wegotobed.

解析：在(that)…”句型中要用虛擬語氣，從句中的謂語用過去式或should

+動(dòng)詞原形表示。

答案：gofwent

39Thesawsareusefultools.

解析：表示某一類人，某一類動(dòng)物或某一類事物有三種表示法：（1）名詞用復(fù)數(shù)；（2）

不定冠詞+單數(shù)名詞；（3）定冠詞+單數(shù)名詞。

答案:Sawsareusefultools.

Asawisausefultool.

Thesawisausefultool.

40SingingEnglishsongsareveryinteresting.

解析：動(dòng)名詞（包括其短語）和動(dòng)詞不定式（包括其復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)）作句子的主語時(shí)，句中

謂語要用單數(shù)。此外，主語從句作主語時(shí)，句中謂語也要用單數(shù)。

答案：SingingEnglishsongsisveryinteresting.

TosingEnglishsongsisveryinteresting.

IV.單項(xiàng)選擇（20分）

41-Howdidyouplayinthematch?

一Well,ourteamwasaheadby2tozeroduring,thefirsthalf,butwe

inthelasttenminutes.

A.hadlostB.havelostC.werelosingD.lost

解析：析/for/duringthelast/past+一段時(shí)間表示“在過去多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間里“做過某

事，與完成時(shí)連用，但本句中并不是這個(gè)含義，而是在“最后十分鐘”出現(xiàn)的結(jié)果。

答案：D

42AstudentofEnglishlimitedexercisefindsuhardtogetgoodmark

inanEnglishcxarn.

A.isusedtodealwithB.usedtodealwith

答案:C

46-Didyouhaveanytroublewiththecustomsofficer?

—___tospeakof.

A.NoB.NothingC.NoneD.Neither

示“值得一提的"，用于否定句。

答案:C

47Whowouldyourather________thewatch?

A.havelorepairB.havefixed

C.getrepairedD.gettorepair

解析：此句是getsb.todosth./havesb.dosth.結(jié)構(gòu)的變化形式。

D.boysliketoplaywiththeirfatherswhilegirlwiththeirmothers

解析：本文主要通過闡述玩具的歷史說明這樣一種觀點(diǎn)：玩具反映人們的藝術(shù)觀，幾十

年來玩具的變化不大。男孩子玩的玩具與女孩子玩的玩具不同，其原因正如第2段第2、3

句所說的：在社會(huì)角色嚴(yán)格確定的社會(huì)中，男孩玩的模式是按照他們父親所從事的活動(dòng)，而

女孩子則模仿她們母親的工作，其原因是他們正準(zhǔn)備步入成人世界去扮演他們的角色和承擔(dān)

他們的責(zé)任。綜上所述，正確選項(xiàng)應(yīng)為B（他們的社會(huì)角色是嚴(yán)格決定了的）。選項(xiàng)A文中

尚未提及。選項(xiàng)C沒有說到根本的內(nèi)容，即步入成人世界去扮演他們的角色和承擔(dān)他們的責(zé)

任，而不僅僅是“子承父業(yè)”。選項(xiàng)D文中也未提及。

答案：B

解析:有關(guān)作者對(duì)玩具歷史發(fā)展的觀點(diǎn)可從文章的第3段獲得，在和第1句中作者說“有

接著，作者又談到：“令人感到驚訝的正是世界各地玩具發(fā)展的普遍性和直到現(xiàn)在玩具的持

久不變性?！倍x項(xiàng)A的內(nèi)容文章并未提及。選項(xiàng)B的內(nèi)容也與玩具的歷史發(fā)展無關(guān)?選項(xiàng)
