从下列各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中, 选择可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. —________ you please tell us the way to the nearest park?
—No problem. Follow me, please.
B. Should
C. Must
D. Need
A. Could
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你能告诉我们去最近的公园的路吗?——没有问题。请跟我来。
考查情态动词辨析。Could 能够,表示委婉语气;Should 应该;Must 必须;Need 需要。结
合对话情景可知,作者一行人请求对方是否能够告知去最近的公园的路,对方欣然同意,所
以这里用情态动词 could,表示比较委婉客气地提出问题。故选 A。
2. 一________ is the train ride from Beijing to Tianjin?
一 For half an hour.
A. How many
B. How much
C. How long
D. How
often
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——从北京到天津坐火车要多长时间?——半个小时。
考查特殊疑问句。How many 多少,对可数名词的数量进行提问;How much 多少(钱),对不
可数名词的量或物品的价格进行提问;How long 多长时间,对一段时间进行提问;How often
多久一次,对频率进行提问。根据答语“For half an hour.”可知问的是多长时间,用 How
long 符合语境。故 选 C。
3. My sister ________ a model plane with my father in the yard now.
A. is making
B. will make
C. makes
D. made
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:我的妹妹现在正在院子里和我爸爸制作飞机模型。
考查现在进行时。由“now”可知表示动作正在进行,用现在进行时,结构是:am/is/are +
doing,主语是“my sister”,be 动词用 is。故选 A。
4. He used to be quite shy, but he ________ a lot since he joined the acting club.
A. was changing
B. has changed
C. changed
D. will
change
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:他过去相当害羞,但是自从他加入表演俱乐部之后改变了很多。
考查时态。根据“since he joined the acting club”可知句子用现在完成时,结构是:
have/has + done,主语是“he”,用 has changed。故选 B。
5. My father's birthday party ________ last weekend.
B. will hold
C. is held
D. was
A. holds
held
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:我父亲的生日聚会是上周末举行的。
考查一般过去时、被动语态。根据时间状语 last weekend 可知,句子是一般过去时;主语
My father's birthday party 和动词 hold 是被动关系,可知句子是一般过去时、被动语态,
其结构为“was/were+过去分词”,主语是单数,be 动词形式用 was。故选 D。
6. —Do you know________ ?
—Next Sunday morning.
A. when will he visit us
B. when did he visit us
C. when he will visit us
D. when he visited us
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你知道他将什么时间过来拜访我们么?——下个周日的早上。
考查宾语从句。动词“know”后是宾语从句,用陈述句的语序“连接词+主语+谓语动词”,
A 和 B 的语序错误,排除 A 和 B 选项。根据“Next Sunday morning”可知此句的动作是将
来发生的,用一般将来时态,从句动词用“will visit”。D 选项时态错误。故选 C。

“favorite fruits and desserts” 是名词,此处应用形容词性物主代词,在句中作定语;

是最好的朋友。
【13 题详解】
句意:Mac 从 Cam 手里接过硬币。
took 拿;kept 保存;returned 归还;borrowed 借。根据“A shiny coin sat in the grass.”
