四、單項填空（本題共75題，每題1.0分，共15分。）

29everywhere,thefoxeshadnowherethemselves.

A^Hunting;hiding

B、Tohunt;tohide

C、Hunted;hiding

D^Hunted;tohide

標準答案：D

知識點解析：動詞hunl與主語ihefoxes是被動的動賓關(guān)系，只能用過去分詞，所

以［A］Hunting；hiding和［B］Tohunt；tohide是干擾項;而［C］和［D］選項中能夠充當

nowhere的后置定語的是不定式tohide；所以只有［D］為正確選項。

30、Hardlyhadshefinishedherlecturethestudentsstartedclapping.

A、and

B、when

C>than

D^as

標準答案：B

知識點解析："nosooner...than","hardly…when"和"scarcely…befbre”相當于"assoon

as"之意。當hardly,scarcely和nosooner置于句子之首時，語氣較強，主句的謂語

要部分倒裝。例如：①Wehadhardlybegunwhenweweretoldtostop.②Hardlyhad

webegunwhenweweretoldtostop.③Thespyhadnosoonerreturnedhomethanhe

wastoldtogotoanothercountry.因此Hardly與選項［B］剛好相配，為正確選項。

31、Hisdesk-matetalkedhappilyabouttheteachersandlessonssheprefersto

chooseforthecomingtenn.

A、which

who

CNwhen

D、that

標準答案：D

知識點解析：當定語從句的先行詞既含有人也含物時，定語從句的引導(dǎo)關(guān)系代詞為

that。例如：①Doyouknowthethingsandpersonsthattheyaretalkingabout?@The

bikeanditsriderthathadrunoveranoldmanweretakentothepolicestation.所以［D］

為正確選項。

32、Harrythecarbeforeheenteredthesupermarket.Thatwaswhyhiscarwas

stolen.

A、hadnotlocked

B>isnotlocking

C、hasnotlocked

D、wasnotlocking

標準答案：A

知識點解析：在過去不同時間發(fā)生的兩個動作中，先發(fā)生的動作要用過去完成時，

而后發(fā)生的動作要用過去時。Whenthepolicearrived,thethieveshadrun

away.“哈理沒有鎖車”在前“進超市”在后，所以沒鎖車應(yīng)該為過去完成時，因此

［A］為正確選項。

33、thesetrainstoBeijingwouldyouliketotake?

A、Whatare

Withwhat

C、Whichof

D、Whatof

標準答案：C

知識點解析：全句含有“從多者中選一'’的意味，；what意為“什么”，為疑問代詞，

沒有選擇的意味，更不可能充當關(guān)系代詞；which表示“哪一個"，有選擇意味，為

關(guān)系代詞：所以含有what的選項都應(yīng)該排除，剩下［C］為正確選項。

34、Nowthattheplanhasbeenworkedoutitmustbeputintoatonce.

A、reality

B、practice

C、deed

D、inturn

標準答案：B

知識點解析：本題的意思為“既然計劃已經(jīng)制定，就必須馬上……”，動詞短語put

intopractice有“實施/執(zhí)行”之義，剛好表達本題的意思，而其它選項不能與put

ini。搭配，因此山|為正確選項。

35、一Whatdoyouoftenhaveforbreakfast?—UsuallyIhavesomemilkandbread;

Ihavesomenoodlesinstead.

A、sometimes

B、attimes

C>allthetime

D、atonetime

標準答案：B

知識點解析：本題提供的信息為“一早餐你經(jīng)常吃什么?一通常我吃牛奶面包；

我不吃牛奶面包，吃面條?！边x項［A］的搭配是錯誤的，選項［B］意為“有

時”，選項［C］意為“一直”，選項［D］為“有一時期（一次，曾經(jīng)）”之意，所以［B］為正確

選項。

36Doyouknowwhoinventedfirsttelephone,byway?

Ax/;the

B、a;the

C、the;a

D、the;the

標準答案：D

知識點解析：根據(jù)“序數(shù)詞之前要用定冠詞”的語法規(guī)則，可以判斷出第一個空需要

定冠詞，這樣可直接將［A］和［B］兩項排除：byiheway是固定搭配，意為“順便”，

所以［D］為正確選項。

37、Themorewereadthestory,.

A^itseemsmoreinteresting

B、itbecomeslessmeaningful

C、thebetterwemightbefondofit

D^themoreinterestingwemaybe

標準答案：C」

知識點解析：比較級題。"hemore…themore”為比較級的典型結(jié)構(gòu)，因此首先從結(jié)

構(gòu)上可以確定：答案要么是［C］要么是［D］；但千萬要注意的是：只表示比較

級，不是在任何情況下都一定要用“more”，雖然選項［D］中有“more”，但是表達“我

們對什么感興趣''要用短語lobeinterestedinsomething；雖然選項［C］中沒有

“more”，但有表示比較級的“better”就足夠了，所以［0為止確選項。

38、Theoldliveinthecountrythaninthecity.

A、prefers

B、hasbetter

C、likesto

D^wouldrather

標準答案：D

知識點解析：雖然prefer后接不定式時可以與rallerlhan或insleadof連用，但是，

該句主語"Theold”表示泛指，從意義上看為復(fù)數(shù)，［A］選項中的prefer為單數(shù)形式

與主語不一致；［B］和［C］的問題也在于此；［D］選項”...wouldrather...than…”結(jié)構(gòu)表

示“寧愿怎么樣…而不愿怎么樣”之意，與全句的意思相匹配，所以［D］為正確選

項。

39、madehisEnglishteacherveryangry.

A、Kate^comingtoclasslate

B、Katecametoclasslate

C>Katecomestoclasslate

D、Katecomingtoclasslate

標準答案：A

知識點解析：該題的空出現(xiàn)在主語的位置上，因此可以確定答案應(yīng)該是非謂語動

詞。瀏覽四個選項，|B|和［C］兩項中沒有非謂語動詞，應(yīng)該先排除；而選項|D］缺

少“飛”所有格，不能表示動作的所屬關(guān)系。因此［A］為正確選項。

40、Studentscoiningfromothercountriesarccontenttheirstudiesandlifein

ourcollege.

A、in

with

C、outof

D、fromto

標準答案：B

知識點解析：瀏覽四個選項，只有介詞“with“與“…becontent…”可搭配成為短語表

示”……對什么感到……滿足的，滿意的……”之意，正合題意，因此［B］為正確選

項。

41、OnlyinthiswayprogressinyourChinese.

A^youcanmake

B、arcyouabletomake

C、canyoubeabletomake

D^youareabletomake

標準答案：B

知識點解析：當only放在句子開頭時，句子要倒裝，所以|A］和［D］選項根本不正

確。而［C］既使用了can又用了beableto造成意義的重復(fù),不可能止確。所以［B］

為正確選項。

42、Theheadmasterrequestedthatallstudentsontimetoschool.

A、be

B、were

C^hadtoarrive

D^musthavetobe.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：在虛擬語氣結(jié)構(gòu)中，放在動詞"suggest/request/order”等后的賓語從句

中謂語動詞要用"should+動詞原形"，should可以省略。因此[A]為正確選項。

43、Lefshaveadrink,?

A、willwe

letus

C、shallwe

D、haven'twe

標準答案：C

知識點解析：當陳述部分是以Let's開頭的祈使句時，反意疑問部分用shallwe；

若是以Le〔us開頭的祈使句，反意疑問部分則用willyou。例如：?Let'shavea

partytonight,shallwe?@Lctushavealookatyoupictures,willyou?注意，如果祈

使句是否定形式，那么反意疑問句只能用willyou。例如:DoiVtforgettobringyour

notebooksheretomorrow,willyou?因此[C]為正確選項。

A^aspeechnotlongerthanthreeminutes

B>aspeechwithoutpreparation

C^aspeechwithapieceofpaperinhand

D^aspeechwhichiswellprepared

68Theword"liability"mostprobablymeans.

A、disadvantage

advantage

C、misfortune

D^trouble

標準答案：A

知識點解析：第一段前四句陳述容貌的優(yōu)勢。然后用Bui,話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，自然是談它

的劣勢。

69、Bowman'sexperimentshowsthatwhenitcomestopolitics,attractiveness.

A、turnsouttobeadisadvantagetomen

B、ismoreofadisadvantagethananadvantagetowomen

C、hasaslittleeffectonmenasonwomen

D、affectsmenandwomenalike

標準答案：B

知識點解析：開始作者就提到了“在政治上，女人漂亮成劣勢”，最后一段的實驗結(jié)

果更加證明了這點。

70>Itcanbeinferredfromthepassagethatpeople'sviewsonbeautyareoften.

A、practical

B、supportive

C、old-fashioned

D、one-sided

標準答案：A

知識點解析：根據(jù)全文可知，大多數(shù)人對于美麗容貌的看法是比較現(xiàn)實的。如文章

第一段就既講述了美麗外表的優(yōu)勢，也談了外表的劣勢。因此可排除B、D。而C

項在文中沒有提及，故正確答案為A。

71、Theauthorwritesthispassageto.

A^giveadvicetojob-seckcrswhoareattractive

B、discussthedisadvantagesofbeingattractive

C>demandequalrightstbrwomen

D、statetheimportanceofappearance

標準答案：D

知識點解析：縱觀全文可知本文是在陳述外表的重要性，而非討論漂亮的優(yōu)劣。

aresume

C、becausetheyfailedtogiveadetaileddescriptionoftheirbackgroundintheir

applications

D、becausetheyeliminatedtheirnamesfromtheapplicants'listthemselves

標準答案：A

知識點解析：根據(jù)第二段可以確定，某些求職者之所以失敗是因為他們太粗心乃至

遞交的個人簡歷污跡斑斑，使得招聘單位不相信他們能把工作完成好。

73、Theword"perfectionists"inthethirdparagraphreferstothosewho.

A、demandotherstogeteverythingabsolutelyright

B、knowhowtoadjusttheirgoalsaccordingtothecircumstances

C、paytoomuchattentiontodetailsonlytolosetheirmajorobjectives

D、arecapableofachievingperfectresultsinwhatevertheydo

標準答案：C

知識點解析：由第三段Perfectionistsstruggleoverlittlethingsatthecostofsomething

largertheyworktoward可知，完美主義者拘泥于細節(jié)之中，卻忽略了自己的更大目

標。

74、Whichofthefollowingistheauthor'sadvicetothereader?

A、Althoughtoomuchattentiontodetailsmaybecostly,theyshouldnotbeoverlooked

（忽視）.

B、Don'tfbrgetdetailswhendrawingpictures.

C、Bewareoftheimportanceofataskbeforeundertakingit.

D、Carelessapplicantsarenottobetrusted.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：根據(jù)文章第一段Attentiontodetailissomethingeveryonecanand

shoulddo.緊接著在文章第三段Canwepaytoomuchattentiontodetail?

Absolutelynolo由此可見，作者就“細節(jié)”問題而言給讀者提供了一個辯證的建議：

過分注重細節(jié)是不可取的，但忽視細節(jié)也是不可取的。

75、TheexampleoftheApolloEmoonlaunchisgiventoillustrate（證明）thal.

A^minormistakescanbeignoredinachievingmajorobjectives

B、failureisthemotherofsuccess

C、adjustmentsarethekeytothesuccessfulcompletionofanywork

D^keepingone'sgoalinmindhelpsindecidingwhichdetailscanbeoverlooked

標準答案：D

知識點解析：第四段作者舉“阿波羅''登月計劃這個例子是想說明：有了一個總體目

標，就能幫助我們進行必要的調(diào)節(jié)（???allowedustomakeadjustmentsas

necessary）,根據(jù)上下文，所謂“必要的調(diào)節(jié)”實際就是指細節(jié)的取舍。

標準答案：D

知識點解析:從第二段Theideaistooperateamachinefarawaythatcandrillwithout

ahumanbeingonboard一句以及第一段講滑坡人工搶險的危險，可知這種機器人的

最大優(yōu)點就是無人操作的安全性。
