北師大附屬實驗中學(xué)2023-2024學(xué)年度第一學(xué)期期中試卷

初二年級英語

A卷（共80分）

第一部分（共46分）

一、單項填空。（共10分，每小題1分）

從下面各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選擇可以填入空白處的最佳選項。

1.ThepopulationofBeijingislargerthanofLondon.

A.thisB.theseC.thatD.those

【答案】C

【詳解】句意：北京的人口比倫敦的人口多。

考查代詞辨析。this這個；these這些；that那個；those那些。根據(jù)“ThepopulationofBeijingislargerthan…of

London.”可知，此處指北京的人口比倫敦的人口多，為了避免重復(fù)，用于比較結(jié)構(gòu)時，應(yīng)用代詞“that”代替

“population”。故選C。

2.QingdaoisabeautifulcitytheeastcoastofChina.

A.toB.onC.atD.in

【答案】B

【詳解】句意：青島是中國東海岸一座美麗城市。

考查介詞。to朝；on在...上面；at在；in在里面。根據(jù)"theeastcoastofChina”可知，此處是短語onthe

coastof在...的海岸線上”，故選B。

3.一HowlongcanIstaywithyou?

一Asasyoulike.

A.longB.longerC.longestD.thel
