20、ice _.(分数:2.50)A.she was able to make herself hearB.was she able to make herself hearC.she was able to make herself heardD.was she able to make herself heard 解析:解析 以 only引导的状语放在句首时,句子谓语需用倒装语序。make oneself heard“让别人听清自己讲的话”。2.The dying soldier had the message _ straight to the headquarters.(分数:2.50)A
21、.be sentB.being sentC.sent D.robe sent解析:解析 have sth. done 表示请别人做某事,有时也表示自己参与做,甚至还可以表示某事完全由自己做,如:I had all my money spent.“我的钱全都花光了。”3.“You must always obey your parents.“ “Oh, I must, _?“(分数:2.50)A.mustn“t IB.must I C.shouldn“t ID.should I解析:解析 这种附加疑问句用于两人对话之间,表示对对方所说的话不赞成、不满、惊讶、反感或反驳等情绪。4.A suitca
22、se with shirts, trousers and shoes _ stolen from the car.(分数:2.50)A.have beenB.has beenC.areD.was 解析:解析 主语为 a suitcase,谓语动词用第三人称单数,不受介词 with的影响。其他类似的情况还有:名词+together with/accompanied by/in addition to/as well as 等,谓语动词的数应与中心名词保持一致。5.Bill dare try, _ he?(分数:2.50)A.doesn“tB.doesC.daren“t D.dares解析:解析
23、dare 既可用做情态动词,也可用做普通动词。做情态动词用时后面直接跟原形动词,多用于否定句中,一般现在时第三人称单数词尾不加 s,没有分词形式,否定式直接在后面加 not,但有过去时 dared。做普通动词用时为及物动词,具有普通动词的一切特点,后面多跟带 to的不定式(dare to do),一般现在时第三人称单数词尾需加 s,用助动词 do,did 帮助提问和构成否定句,有分词形式,有各种时态,可以直接跟名词做宾语等。dare 在本句中为情态动词,一般现在时否定式为 daren“t。6.Plastics are the best insulator of electricity, rub
24、ber _ it closely.(分数:2.50)A.following B.followedC.to followD.being followed解析:解析 rubber following it closely 为分词独立结构,放在主句之后,提供进一步的细节情况。7.Jack and not I _ the Great Wall twice.(分数:2.50)A.have visitedB.has visited C.have gone toD.has gone to解析:解析 A and not B 两个名词做主语时,谓语动词的人称和数应与 A保持一致,不受 B的影响。8.“Betwe
25、en you and me, he said you are a good for nothing.“ “_“(分数:2.50)A.So did heB.So he saidC.So he did, did he? D.Thus he did解析:解析 这种附加疑问句表示对对方所说的话感到惊讶,难以置信。9.Output is now six times _ it was before 1990.(分数:2.50)A.thatB.whichC.what D.as much解析:解析 此句可译为“现在的产量是 1990年前产量的六倍”。what it is/was 是个很有用的句式,表示前面所提
26、到的同类情况,如:Life in the nineteenth century was very different from what it is now. The situation is very different from what it was twenty years ago.10.At his jokes we could not help but _.(分数:2.50)A.laugh B.laughingC.laughedD.laughter解析:解析 cannot help but do=cannot help doing“不由得,不能不,禁不住要”。这个 could no
27、t help but do成语还可再简化为 could not but do,意思不变,如:I couldn“t help but overhear what he said=I couldn“t but overhear what he said=I couldn“t help overhearing what he said。11.Food is to the blood _ reading is to the mind.(分数:2.50)A.thatB.whichC.what D.so解析:解析 这是一个文气的句型,把它简化起来就是:A is to B what X is to Y=A
28、is to B just as X is to Y.“A对于 B正如 X对于 Y一样。”又如:People is to the army what water is to fish.12._ rich or poor, I will marry him all the same.(分数:2.50)A.Were heB.Be he C.May he beD.No matter he is解析:解析 be he rich or poor“不论他家财万贯,还是一贫如洗”,这是带有古风的让步状语从句,实际上是“Let him be rich or poor”的省略句形式,省略了 let,把宾格 him
29、变为主格,be 动词提到句首。13.He had more dictionaries than _ for his work.(分数:2.50)A.they are neededB.it was neededC.were necessary D.necessary were they解析:解析 than 后的从句的主语若是主句中提到的名词,谓语是动词 be时,可以省略从句的主语,有时 be也略而不用。此句实际上是省略了主语 they (the dictionaries),如大学英语精读第四册第七课 The Luncheon中有这样一句话:She gave me the impression o
30、f having more teeth, white and large and even, than were necessary for any practical purpose.又如:There were more casualties than was reported(=than it was reported there were).14._ yelling at me like this? It“s you who are to blame for this affair.(分数:2.50)A.Where is the point ofB.What is the point f
31、orC.Where is the point as toD.What is the point of 解析:解析 what is the point of yelling at me?“冲着我嚷嚷有什么用?”(注意:What is the point of后面要求跟-ing 形式。)除 point外,还有 use,good,sense,fun 等名词常常用于下面的句型中:It“s no use/point/good/fun+-ing. There is no use/point/good/fun in+-ing. What is the use/point/good/fun of+-ing?
32、What use/point/good/sense/fun is there in+-ing?这几个句式考试频度都很大。15.They are considering _ the house before the prices go down.(分数:2.50)A.selling B.of sellingC.to sellD.overselling解析:解析 consider 后面要求跟名词或动名词(动词的-ing 形式)做宾语,不能跟不定式。16.The president of the college, together with the deans, _ a conference for
33、 the purpose of laying down certain regulations.(分数:2.50)A.is planning B.are planningC.are to planD.have planned解析:解析 本句的主语是 the President of the college,因此谓语动词用第三人称单数。以 A together with B做主语时,谓语的性、数和人称与名词 A保持一致,不受 together with的影响。类似的说法还有:A as well as B;A in addition to B;A accompanied by B;A and no
34、t B 等。在这些说法中,名词 A做主语,谓语应与 A保持一致,不受 B的影响。17.Tom was glad that his success would _ for those who would follow.(分数:2.50)A.be easierB.be easier to makeC.make it easierD.make things easier 解析:解析 make things easier for those“使后来者做起事来更容易些”。注意不能选 C项,因为 it为形式宾语,它所代替的应是移至句末的不定式(for sb. to do)或从句,而本题中缺乏这样的结构。1
35、8.They will get the job done in _ time.(分数:2.50)A.three quarter of an hourB.three quarters of an hourC.three quarter of an hour“sD.three quarters of an hour“s 解析:解析 以表示一段时间的短语做定语修饰另一个名词时需用所有格形式,所有格的“s 应加在整个时间短语的末尾,而不管这个时间短语由多少词构成,也不管结构有多复杂,如 three quarters of an hour表示一段时间,所有格应加在它的最后。又如“三个半小时一刻钟左右”应
36、说“three hours and a quarter or so”,如果用英语表达“在三个半小时一钟左右的时间内”,就应说“in three hours and a quarter or so“s time”。19.To succeed in a scientific research project, _.(分数:2.50)A.persistence is neededB.persistence is what one needsC.one needs to be persistent D.one needs be a persistent person解析:解析 to succeed i
37、n a scientific research project“要取得科研项目的成功”,此为不定式做状语表示目的,因此应选以人做主语的句子 C项或 D项。D 项中的 needs为实义动词,后面不能跟原形动词,因此 C项为正确答案。20.Kunming is usually cool in the summer, but Shanghai _.(分数:2.50)A.is rarelyB.is hardlyC.rarely is D.hardly is解析:解析 在正常情况下,在以系动词 be做谓语的句子中,表示频度的副词usually,often,seldom 等通常放在 be后修饰表语,如:H
38、e is usually calm. It“s seldom cold.但在省略表语的句子中,这些副词就需提到 be动词前面,而且 be要重读。上面两个句子变成省略句就成为:He usually is. It seldom is.21.I don“t mind _ the decision as long as it is not too late.(分数:2.50)A.you delay to makeB.your delaying to makeC.you to delay makingD.your delaying making 解析:解析 动词 mind“介意”,“在乎”,主要用于疑问
39、句和否定句,后面要求跟动词-ing 形式,表示这个-ing 的动作是由句子主语发出的;如果-ing 的施动者不是句子的主语而是另一人,就需用物主代词 my,your,his,her 等修饰;如果这个另一人以其名字出现(如 John或 Ann)或以普通名词出现(如 the boy或 the child),就以这个名字或名词的主格-ing 复合结构做 mind的宾语,如:Do you mind my opening the window/John opening the window.本题中的 delay后面也要求跟-ing 形式,因此正确答案应是 I don“t mind your delayi
40、ng making the decision.22.The speed of communications today, as opposed to _, has greatly altered the manner in which business is conducted.(分数:2.50)A.one of yesterdayB.those of yesterdayC.that of yesterday D.the ones of yesterday解析:解析 as opposed to that of yesterday“与昨天的相对比”,that 是代词,代替前面刚提到过的名词(特指
41、),相当于 the+名词,以避免重复,此处的 that代表前面的 the speed of communications,如:My seat was next to that (=the seat) of the mayor.如果前面的名词是复数,后面就要用 those代替,如:The objects of this group were nearly so drastic as those (=the objects) of the republicans.如果前面提到的是可数名词,后面再出现表示泛指意义的这个可数名词单数时,则可用泛指代词 one代替;如果是特指,则可用 the ones代
42、替,如:I haven“t a pen. Can you lend me one? The big fish devours the little ones.23.They lost their way in the forest, and _ made matters worse was that night began to fall.(分数:2.50)A.itB.thatC.whichD.what 解析:解析 what made matters worse“使情况变得更糟的是”,名词性从句做主语。24.There is a real possibility that these anim
43、als could be frightened, _ a sudden loud noise.(分数:2.50)A.there beingB.was thereC.should there be D.there having been解析:解析 should there be a sudden loud noise“如果突然出现巨大的响声”,这是省略了 if的虚拟条件句将来时,把助动词或情态动词提前,相当于 if there should be a sudden loud noise。25.I tried to relax because I knew I would use up my ox
44、ygen sooner _.(分数:2.50)A.the more excited I got B.and more I got excitedC.I got more excitedD.and I got more excited解析:解析 在通常情况下使用“the morethe more,”结构,第一个 the more为状语从句,第二个 the more为主句,主句和从句中的形容词(或副词)比较级放在句首并用定冠词修饰。本题是将主句放在从句前面,主句中的形容词比较级没有前移,而是在通常的位置上,比较级前面不用定冠词,从句的比较级仍在从句句首,用定冠词修饰。这个 the more(从句)
45、the more(主句)结构还可以将从句转换为 if(条件状语从句)及 as,when(时间状语从句),如可将本题的句子转换为:I tried to relax because I knew I would use up my oxygen sooner if/when I got more excited.也可以把从句仍放在主句前面,如:I tried to relax because I knew if/when I got more excited I would use up my oxygen sooner.26.It is better to die on one“s feet t
46、han _ one“s knees.(分数:2.50)A.onB.live onC.living onD.to live on 解析:解析 本题测试平衡结构(parallelism),也就是说 than两边的成分要对等,better to die.than to live.27.Our modern civilization must not be thought of as _ overnight.(分数:2.50)A.being created B.having createdC.to be createdD.to have been created解析:解析 think of.as“以为
47、,认为是”,as 后面可跟名词、动名词短语或形容词(即省略了being),如:You mustn“t think of me as being unhappy. I have long thought of it as the most enchanting village in England. It was thought of as impossible.28.Even if they are on sale, these refrigerators are equal in price to, if not more expensive than, _ at the other sto
48、re.(分数:2.50)A.any otherB.the othersC.the ones D.that解析:解析 one 为不定代词,代替前面刚刚出现过的可数名词;如果是特指就要用定冠词。本题中的the ones at the other store=the refrigerators at the other store。any other“任何别的(冰箱)”;the others(在特定的冰箱整体中除了前面提到的之外)其余的(冰箱)。29.The world“s greatest sporting event, the Olympic Games, upholds the amateur ideal that _ matters is not winning but participating.(分数:2.50)A.anythingB.itC.whichD.what 解析:解析 what matters“重要的是”,名词性从句做主语。30.The students expected there _
