Consumers (消费者) have been willing to pay up to twice as much for goods with organic labels (
14、标签). However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, then youd better save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford 4University says that organic products arent necessarily more nutritious, and theyre no less likely to suffer from d

Neither organic nor traditional foods showed le
17、vels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards(标准). And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acid

36、r of fact, a “thank-you” is enough.答案以及解析1答案及解析：答案：A解析：method, way,manner, means 这四个词都有“方法”之意。 method 着重指为达到目的或解决问题而采取的有系统、有步骤的方法,着重指方法的准确有效,常与介词 with连用;way是普通用语,常指一般方式方法,常与介词 in连用;manner 指行为的特殊方式或独特的个人方法,常与介词 in连用;means 多指抽象或概括性意义的手段方法常与介词 by连用。2答案及解析：答案： B解析： 本题是一个定语从句,先行词是 several diverse culture
37、s,在定语从句里使用which指代先行词作为介词 of的宾语。排除 C、D 两项,这两项并不是定语从句。A 项在定语从句中作主语的时候,谓语动词要使用复数形式,本题定语从句中的 uses说明 A项是错误的。B 项中的 each作主语,谓语动词使用单数形式。句意:英语是一个被很多不同的文化共同使用的语言,每一种文化使用英语的方法都是不一样的。故 B正确。3答案及解析：答案：A解析：句意:新的研究表明,青少年看电视越多,长大后越有可能得抑郁症。the more, the more越越。两个 the more之后,都是陈述句语序。句中空格后 develop是一个动词,不可直接在前用 be动词, 而
38、be to do sth表示可能性,可以指将来。4答案及解析：9答案： A解析： 考查介词短语。句意:谢天谢地,你很安全。我朝后退了,才及时避开了飞速驶来的汽车。A 及时;B 以免;C 需要;D 徒劳。从语境可知说话人避开了汽车,而 in time to do意思为“及时做某事”,所以 A选项正确。5答案及解析：答案： B解析： 句意:他在忙着写一个故事,只是偶尔停下来抽支烟。此处应为动词-ing 形式作伴随状语,表示伴随 write的动作。A 项通常作目的状语和结果状语。6答案及解析：答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.C; 4.D7答案及解析：答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.A8答案及解析：答案：
39、1.D; 2.A; 3.C; 4.A; 5.C; 6.B; 7.B; 8.C; 9.B; 10.A; 11.D; 12.B; 13.B; 14.C; 15.D; 16.B; 17.C; 18.D; 19.A; 20.C解析：1.easily“容易”。他买车的主要目的是为了上下班方便。2.so. that. “如此以致”,这是一个固定结构。too much 不能和 that连用,我们经常使用 too. to结构。3.根据上文修理花费太多,所以就决定卖掉它,而且下文也是围绕卖车而展开的。4.be anxious to do sth.“急着干某事”,戴夫想了解是否有人急着买车,因为他想卖掉自己的车。
40、5.前面已经提到 it was Ming to pieces“车很快要成碎片”, 所以没有人愿意买。neither用于两个人中没有一个,所以在这不合适。6.upset表示“心烦的”。因为没人愿意买车,所以他很心烦。7.whats即表示“怎么回事,发生了什么”。8.get表示“得到”,在这儿是表示“你将得到的要比广告花费的多”。109.advice表示“建议”,因为前面有一句“what about advertising it in the newspaper?”它就是一种建议“在报纸上登广告怎么样?”10.use表示“使用”,在这里表示车很省油, lose 表示“丢失”;have 表示“有”;
41、spend 表示“花费(时间、金钱、精力等)”。11.answer表不“回应”,no answer 表示广告登出去以后无人问津。doubt 表示“怀疑”;help表示“帮助”;trouble 表示“麻烦”,均不合题意。12.这里表示来看车。13.suitable表示“合适的”,在这里是问第二天早上 10 点钟是否合适。14.bring my wife表示把妻子带来。15.test“测试”,买车的人将和妻子一道来测试一下车子。recognize“认出”;gain“获得,得到”:admire“钦佩”,均不合题意。16.mean to do表示“打算做”,在这儿是指打算等买车的人。17.answer
42、在这里表示“回应”,就趕指那个看了广告以后准备来看车的人。18.admit“承认”,在这里表示他自己也不得不承认自己的车看起来太旧了。19.这里是一个固定结构“as. as.“20.accident“事故”。9答案及解析：答案：commonly; is regarded; officials; at; the; which; bravery; to decorate; best; built解析：狮子是动物之王,在中国民间被认为是勇敢、力量和好运的象征。monly考査副词。句意:人们经常会在传统建筑的门前看到一对石狮子,一雄一雌。设空处要用副词修饰谓语动词 are seen。2.is rega
43、rded考查动词时态和语态及主谓一致。句意:狮子被认为是动物之王,因此它代表了力量。此处表示一种现实情况,故用一般现在时;The lion 与 regard之间是被动关系,主语是第三人称单数形式, 所以答案为 is regarded。3. officials考査名词单复数。句意:石狮子也被用来表明官员的级别。 此处表示“官员”.应用名词。official 是可数名词,设空处前没有修饰限制的词语,所以要用名词的复数形式。114. at考査介词。at the beginning of 在开始的时候.5. the考查冠词。特指佛教的传人,用定冠词表示特指。6. which考査定语从句。设空处引导非限
44、制性定语从句,修饰先行词 the lion,关系词在从句中充当主语,所以要用关系代词 which。7. bravery考査词性转换。句意:在中国民间故事中,狮子成了勇敢、 力量和好运的象征。and连接三个名词:bravery、power 和 luck。8. to decorate考査不定式。“It is+adj.+to do sth.”意为“做某事是的”,是固定句式。9. best考査形容词最高级。其中最出名的就是卢沟桥.此处要用 well known 的最高级 best known。10.built考査非谓语动词。设空处是非谓语动词作定语,设空处动作与其所修饰的名词之间是被动关系,所以要用过
45、去分词形式。10答案及解析：答案： The other day ,I was on my way back home from school whilen I found a lime boy crying on the road .I stopped and asked him what sa the matter ,and he told me he couldnt find his mom .Luckily ,he remembered his mothers telephone number .So I called himer immediately .Ten minutes lat

Ton my opinion, the world needs love and we should be willing to help others without expecting any
47、repay .If we wanted repay, as amatter of fact, a “thank-you” is enough.解析： 本文主要讲述了作者帮助小孩找妈妈的一次经历。 1. when考查连词。句意:我正走在放学回家的路上这时候发现一名小男孩在路边哭。was/were doing sth.-when-,正在做某事,这时候-,故把 whilewhen。 122. was考查时态。句意:我停下来,问他怎么了。句子用一般过去时态,故把 iswas 。 3. her考查人称代词。句意:我立刻给他妈妈打电话。故把 called后的 himher。 4. minutes考查名词。
48、句意:十分钟之后,可知名词用复数形式,答案为minuteminutes。75. excited 考查形容词。句意:男孩见到他的妈妈感到很兴奋。修饰人,表示“感到.”用带 ed的形容词。故把 excitingexcited。 6. much考查副词。句意:他的妈妈很感激,想送给我礼物。much 不能修饰形容词,故把 so后的 much去掉。 7. but考查连词。句意:她想给我买一个小礼物,但是我拒绝了。故把 I refused前的andbut。 8. happy考查形容词。句意:我感到非常高兴。形容词作表语,故把 happilyhappy。 9. In考查固定搭配。句意:依我之见,这个世界需要爱,我们都应不计回报的帮助别人。固定搭配:in ones opinion 以某人看来,故把 ToIn。注意大写开头。 10. a考查固定短语。句意:如果想要回报,一句“谢谢”就足够了。固定词组:as a matter of fact 事实上,故在 matter前加 a。 【点评】通读全文并翻译,找出时态、连接词和人称代词的错误,然后再逐句找错,从名词单复数、冠词。非谓语动词、从句、固定词组等方面考虑错误。最后再核查答案。
