第一节 单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
21. — Why, this is nothing but common vegetable soup!
— _______, madam. It's our soup of the day.
A. Let me see
B. So it is
C. Don't mention it
D. Neither do I
【答案】:A
【解析】:本题考查交际用语。
句意:“哎呀,这只是普通的蔬菜汤!” “让我看看,女士。这就是我们今天的汤。”
选项 A 适合用于此语境,可表示日常礼貌的交际表达;而选项 B、C、D 均不符合语境和句意要求。
22. They might just have a place _______ on the writing course — why don't you give it
a try?
A. leave
B. left
C. leaving
D. to leave
【答案】:B
【解析】:本题考查非谓语动词。
句意:他们可能只保留了一个位置给写作课程——你为什么不试试看呢?
leave 作动词讲,可表示“使保留,留下备用”,leave 和 place 属于被动关系,故 left 作 place
的后置定语,表示“剩下的位置,保留的位置”。
23. Try not to cough more than you can _______ since it may cause problems to your lungs.
A. check
B. allow
C. stop
D. help
【答案】:D
【解析】:本题考查固定用法。
句意:想咳就咳出来吧,不要忍着,因为这可能引发你的肺部疾病。
sb. can not help 表示“某人忍不住(或无法抑制)”,本句将 not 前置了,故答案为 help。
24. If we _______ now to protect the environment, we'll live to regret it.
A. hadn't acted
B. haven't acted
C. don't act
D. won't act
【答案】:C
【解析】:本题考查 if 引导的现在真实条件句。
句意:如果我们现在不采取行动保护环境的话,我们将抱憾终身。
if 引导的现在真实条件句的结构为:主将从现(主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时)。本题
中,主句为 we'll live,从句应为 don't act,一般现在时的否定形式,故答案为选项 C。
25. Tony can hardly boil an egg, still _______ cook dinner.
A. less
B. little
C. much
D. more
【答案】:A
【解析】:本题考查固定用法。
句意:托尼连煮鸡蛋都不太会,就更不用说做饭了。
still less 为固定短语,表示“更不用说,更何况”。
26. Police have found _______ appears to be the lost ancient statue.
A. which
B. where
C. how
D. what
【答案】:D
【解析】:本题考查 what 引导宾语从句。
句意:警方已锁定了那个可能是遗失的古雕像。
found 后接宾语从句,从句中 appears to 缺少主语成分,所以应该选一个连接代词引导宾语从句,
故排除选项 B 和 C;what 可以引导宾语从句,在本句中既可作 found 的宾语,又可作从句的主语,
选项 A 不符合题意,故本题答案为选项 D。
27. When I first met Bryan I didn't like him, but I _______ my mind.
A. have changed
B. change
C. had changed
D. would change
【答案】:A
【解析】:本题考查现在完成时。
句意:当我第一次见到布莱恩时,我不怎么喜欢他,但我已经改变我对他的看法了。
现在完成时表示动作从过去一个不确定的时间开始,一直持续到现在,并且将来有可能继续下去
(也可能到此结束),强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。现在完成时 have changed
对现在造成的影响就是我改变了对 Bryan 的看法。
28. The driver wanted to park his car near the roadside but was asked by the police _______.
A. not to do
B. not to
C. not do
D. do
not
【答案】:B
【解析】:本题考查动词不定式。
句意:司机想靠路边停车,但警察不让他这么做。
ask sb. (not) to do sth.表示“要求某人做(不要做)某事”,本题中,was asked 用于被动
语态,不定式 to 后的成分可省略,以避免和前面的动词 park 重复。
29. The door _______ open, no matter how hard she pushed.
A. shouldn't
B. couldn't
C. wouldn't
D. mightn't
【答案】:B
【解析】:本题考查情态动词。
句意:不管她怎么用力推门,都无法打开这扇门。
couldn't 表示“不能,无法”,其余三项均不符合句意要求。
30. At the last moment, Tom decided to _______ a new character to make the story seem
more likely.
A. put up

A. 不填; a
B. the; a
C. an; 不填
D. an; the
【答案】:A
【解析】:本题考查定冠词和不定冠词。
句意:经过一段漫长的斗争,印度于1947年实现了独立。
independence 是不可数名词,故可排除选项 C 和 D。independence 前不需加定冠词 the 特指,“实
现独立”的表达为 attain independence。
32. There's no way of knowing why one man makes an important discovery _______ another
man, also intelligent, fails.
B. if
C. as
A. since
D. while
【答案】:D
【解析】:本题考查连词 while。
句意:人们无法解释为什么有人能做出重大发现,然而同样聪明的另一个人却失败了。
通过句意可知,本题想要表达的是一个转折关系,while 作连词讲,可表示“(对比两件事或两
个人)而,然而”;since 意为“因为,由于”;if 意为“如果”;as 意为“当……时;因为;
尽管”,故本题答案为选项 D。

A. as the saying goes old
B. goes as the old
saying
C. as the old saying goes
D. goes as old the

A. throwing
B. being thrown
C. to throw
D. to be thrown
【答案】:A
【解析】:本题考查非谓语动词。
句意:阳光明媚而刺眼,在地面上投下了轮廓鲜明的影子。
throw 表示“照射(光线),投射(阴影)”,throw 和 sunlight 属于主动关系,故可排除选项 B
和 D;不定式表示目的,所以 to throw 不符合句意要求。

I went to a group activity, “Sensitivity Sunday”, which was to make us more
36
the
problems faced by disabled people. We were asked to “ 37
a disability” for several
hours one Sunday. Some members,
38 , chose to use wheelchairs. Others wore
sound-blocking earplugs (耳塞) or blindfolds (眼罩).
Just sitting in the wheelchair was a
39
experience. I had never considered before
how40 it would be to use one. As soon as I sat down my

. Then I wondered where to put my
43 . It took me quite
a while to get the metal footrest into

47
position and thought it might be restful,
48
kind of nice,
to be
49
around for a while. Looking around, I
50
I would have to handle the thing
myself! My hands started to ache as I
51
the heavy wheels. I came to know that
controlling the
52 of the wheelchair is not going to be a (an)
53
task.
My wheelchair experiment was soon

of “disability” gave me only a taste of the

disabled people must overcome.
