19、B.sentimentalC.intimateD.sensitive解析:考点 词汇量 解析 affectionate“深情的,充满情爱的”,常指亲人之间的情感;sentimental“伤感的,多愁善感的”;intimate“亲密的,亲切的”,指不可分割的、充满深情的友谊;sensitive“敏感的”。由此可见,只有 A 才能修饰家里的来信。2.Some journalists often overstate the situation so that their news may create a great _.(分数:2.50)A.explosionB.sensation C.exagg
20、erationD.stimulation解析:考点 形近词辨析 解析 explosion“爆炸”;sensation“轰动”;exaggeration“夸张”;stimulation“刺激”。根据题意只能选 sensation。3.These magazines are both interesting and instructive. No wonder they _ to the reading public.(分数:2.50)A.appeal B.fascinateC.arrestD.tempt解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 appeal (to sb.)“(作品等)有感染力,有吸引力”,如
21、:Do these paintings appeal to you?(你对这些画感兴趣吗?)而 fascinate“使着迷,使感兴趣”、arrest“逮捕,拘留;吸引(某人的注意)”和 tempt“引诱,劝诱”都是及物动词,后面不能跟介词 to。4.It is reported that a completely new situation will _ when the examination system comes into existence.(分数:2.50)A.arise B.raiseC.riseD.arouse解析:考点 形近词辨析 解析 raise“举起;抚育(子女等),饲养
22、;提出(问题等)”和 arouse“唤醒,唤起,引起”都是及物动词,所以不合题意。rise“(物价,日月,烟,水等)上升,上涨,增长;起床,起身”,也不符合题意;arise“出现,发生”,此词意味着一连串的因果关系,如:new social organization arising from the industrial revolution“由工业革命产生的新型社会机构”,所以此词符合“全新的形势将随着考试系统的建立而出现”的题意。5.This card _ you to see a free film at the new theatre.(分数:2.50)A.givesB.grantsC
23、.entitles D.credits解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 entitle (sb.) to do sth.“给某人做某事的权利”为固定搭配,而其他几个选项都不能如此搭配;give“给”和 grant“同意,给予,授予”要表达此意时的搭配为 give/grant sb. the right to do sth.;credit“信用,信任”。6.The lady complained about the _ air-conditioner she bought from the market.(分数:2.50)A.inelegantB.defective C.indignantD.marv
24、elous解析:考点 词汇量 解析 defective“有缺点的,有缺陷的”;inelegant“不雅的,粗俗的”;indignant“愤慨的,愤慨不平的”;marvelous“令人惊异的,了不起的”。可见只有 defective 符合题意。7.He was so _ with the idea of the approaching examinations that he could not sleep well at night.(分数:2.50)A.obsessed B.absorbedC.addictedD.indulged解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 be obsessed with“
25、(指恐惧、固执的或错误的观念)占据思想,为所困扰”,如:be obsessed with fear of unemployment“被失业的恐惧所困扰”;be absorbed in“全神贯注于,专心于”,如:be absorbed in thoughts“在沉思中”;be addicted to“沉溺于,醉心于”,如:be addicted to alcohol/smoking“嗜好喝酒/抽烟”;be indulged in“沉溺于,纵情于,尽情享受”,如:He occasionally indulges in the luxury of a good cigar.(他偶尔享受一支好雪茄。)
26、由此可见只有obsess 符合搭配及题意,所以答案应为 A。8.He underwent four _ operations in two weeks.(分数:2.50)A.excessiveB.extensiveC.intensiveD.successive 解析:考点 形近词辨析 解析 此题的四个选项都是加了形容词后缀-sive 的派生词。excessive“过度的,过分的”;extensive“广阔的,广泛的”;intensive“加强的,集中的”;successive“接连的,连续的”。根据题意并结合这四个词的含义,本题应选 D,即“在两周内,他连续做了四次手术”。9.Jack was
27、 completely _ by the criminal“s disguise.(分数:2.50)A.taken in B.taken afterC.taken forD.taken on解析:考点 词组辨析、理解与运用 解析 take in“欺骗”,常用于被动语态;take after“(长相;行为举止等)长得像”;take for“认为,以为;误认为”,如:What do you take me for?(你把我当什么人来看?);take on“承担”。结合题意应选 A,即“杰克被那个罪犯的伪装彻底迷惑了”。10.Their confidence in him was greatly _
28、 by his prolonged hesitation before taking any action.(分数:2.50)A.appreciatedB.confirmedC.weakened D.valued解析:考点 词汇量 解析 appreciate“感谢,感激;欣赏,赏识”;confirm“证实;确认,批准”,一般指消息等得到证实;weaken“削弱,减弱”;value“看重,珍视”。根据题意知,由于他在采取行动上长期的犹豫不决,所以人们对他的信任只能是减弱。11.According to the weather forecast, which is usually _, it wi
29、ll snow this afternoon.(分数:2.50)A.accurate B.preciseC.exactD.perfect解析:考点 近义词辨析 解析 accurate,precise 和 exact 的意思比较接近,都含有充分符合某个客观标准的意思,但它们在侧重点上却有所不同。accurate 指符合这一标准的程度,并强调为忠实于真理或事实所耗费的苦心,如:It took a week of investigation to get an even reasonably accurate account of the accident.(为了做出对这个事故合理准确的解释,花了一
30、个星期的时间做调查。)通常表示天气预报准确的时候都用 accurate。exact 强调在一定数量和质量方面的极度准确,如:The exact wave length assigned to a transmitting station must always be maintained.(转播台的精确波长一定要保持。)precise 强调有关微小细节方面的高度准确,如:The assembling of the parts of a watch must be precise.(一块手表的零件装配要十分精细。)perfect“完美的,完善的;完全的,十足的”,一般不能形容天气预报。12.Hi
31、s latest novel has _ his already considerable reputation.(分数:2.50)A.magnifiedB.enlargedC.strengthened D.erased解析:考点 近义词辨析 解析 magnify“放大,扩大”,指使某物看起来比它的实际要大,如:The microscope magnifies the object 100 diameters.(这架显微镜把物象放大 100 倍。)enlarge“扩大,放大,增大”,指扩大尺寸,如:to enlarge a photograph“放大一张照片”。strengthen“加强,巩固
32、”,如:strengthen national defense“巩固国防”,strengthen unity“加强团结”;erase“擦掉,抹掉,删去”。根据题意应选 C,意为他的新书提升了他已经相当大的名声。13.Changing from solid to liquid, water takes in heat from all substances near it, and this _ produces artificial cold surrounding it.(分数:2.50)A.absorption B.accumulationC.consumptionD.interactio
33、n解析:考点 形近词 解析 absorption“吸收”,如:absorption of heat“吸收热量”,absorption of water by the earth“土地对水的吸收”,句子谈到“水吸收热量”,以及“这种吸收”产生的结果,所以 take in 和absorption 是互译,相当于“.and this taking in of heat from all substances near it produces.”,所以应选 A。accumulation“积累,积蓄”,此词显然不合题意。consumption“消耗,消费”;interaction“相互作用”。“水吸收热
34、量”不是“热的消耗”,也不是“水和热”的相互作用,所以 C 和 D 也都不符合题意。14.Because he was _ of the new limit, he was stopped and warned for speeding.(分数:2.50)A.ignorant B.accustomedC.reluctantD.innocent解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 ignorant“不知道的;无知的,愚昧的”,表示不知道时后面一般跟介词 of,如:be ignorant of conditions at the lower levels“不了解下情”。accustomed“习惯的,惯常的”
35、,常跟介词 to,如:The boy was soon accustomed to the hard work.(那男孩很快就适应苦工了。)reluctant“不情愿的,不愿意的”;innocent“清白的,无罪的”,常跟介词 of,如:be innocent of a crime“无罪”。所以,根据题意答案应为 A。15.Lisa made a lot of effort to persuade her father into _ to her going to the United States to study business administration.(分数:2.50)A.con
36、finingB.contestingC.concedingD.consenting 解析:考点 形近词辨析与固定搭配 解析 四个选项都是加了前缀 con-的派生词,而其中也只有 consent 能和介词 to 搭配使用。consent“同意,答应”,如:consent to a proposal“同意一个提议”,consent to (do)“同意做”。所以答案应为 D。confine“限制,限于;监禁”。contest“竞争,比赛;争论,争辩”,如:to contest every inch of land“寸土必争”,to contest a statement/point“反驳某陈述/论
37、点”。concede“承认;给予,割让”。16.The district _ was established by the government a few years ago.(分数:2.50)A.council B.counselC.consultantD.console解析:考点 形近词辨析 解析 council“理事会,委员会,议事机构”。counsel“商议,忠告;法律顾问”,如:hold/take counsel with sb.“听取某人的意见”,the jury heard counsel on both sides“陪审团听取了原告及被告双方律师的辩护”。consultant
38、“顾问”;console“(v.)安慰,慰问”。17.She didn“t hope to _ her cold in a couple of days.(分数:2.50)A.get awayB.get offC.get outD.get over 解析:考点 词组辨析、理解与运用 解析 get away“逃脱,逃跑”,如:The thief got away with the jewels.(那贼把珠宝偷跑了。)She never arrives on time at the office, but she somehow manages to get away with it.(她从不按时
39、上班,但她总能设法逃脱处罚。)get off“下车;出发,离去”;get out“出去;离开;逃脱;泄露”;get over“复原;克服(困难)”,如:It took me a long time to get over my cold.(过了好久我的感冒才好。)可见,只有 D 符合题意。18.Would you please _ these invitations to all the teachers of the English department?(分数:2.50)A.hand overB.hand out C.hand downD.hand in解析:考点 词组辨析、理解与运用 解
40、析 hand over (to)“移交,交出”,如:The offender was handed over to the police.(那罪犯已经被送交警方。)hand out“分发,派送”,如:hand out leaflets to people“向人们散发传单”,hand out a dismissal notice to.“给发解雇通知”。hand down“传下来,传给”,如:Their home contains many rare antiques which have been handed down to them from one generation to anoth
41、er.(他们家里藏了许多世代相传的珍奇古董。)hand in“交上,上交”,如:hand in one“s resignation“递交辞职书”。19.Although his mother _ with the judge for him, he was sentenced to life imprisonment.(分数:2.50)A.negotiatedB.beggedC.appealedD.pleaded 解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 plead with sb.(for sth./to do sth.)“祈求”,如:plead with sb. for mercy“向某人祈求宽恕”;b
42、eg sb. off“替某人请求原谅,为某人说情”;appeal to sb. for sth.“为某事向某人呼吁”或 appeal to sb. to do sth.“呼吁某人做某事”;negotiate with sb. about/over sth.“与某人谈判或协商某事”。可以看出只有 plead 和 negotiate 可以与介词 with 搭配使用,但很明显 negotiate 不符合题意,所以应选 D。20._ these conditions, the number of churches and church membership grew in the postwar de
43、cade.(分数:2.50)A.BecauseB.Despite C.AccordingD.Although解析:考点 词汇量 解析 because“因为”和 although“尽管,虽然”都是连词,后面要跟句子,不能直接跟名词,所以排除;according“按照,根据”后面要接介词 to;despite“不管,不顾”与 in spite of 相同,后面可以直接跟名词,所以正确选择项应是 despite。21.The parents _ their daughter to marry the poor young man.(分数:2.50)A.bannedB.prohibitedC.prev
44、entedD.forbade 解析:考点 近义词辨析 解析 四个选项都有禁止的意思,但用法不同。ban“正式禁止”,后面直接跟所禁止的东西,如:The treaty bans all nuclear tests.(这个条约禁止一切核试验。)Swimming in this river is banned.(此河禁止游泳。)prohibit“禁止”,指通过法律、法令或严正警告,搭配一般为 prohibit sb./sth. from doing sth.“禁止某人(某物)做某事”;prevent“防止,阻止”,搭配与 prohibit 相同;forbid“禁止”,可用于较细小的事情,搭配为 fo
45、rbid sb./sth. to do sth.。可见只有 forbid 才是最佳选择。22.He _ his letter of application to the director of the Personnel Department of that company.(分数:2.50)A.sealedB.addressed C.stampedD.attached解析:考点 词汇量 解析 address“致函”,如:Address all the mail to Mr. Smith when I am away.(在我离开期间请把所有邮件寄史密斯先生收。)seal“盖印,盖章”;stam
46、p“盖章于,贴上邮票”;attach.to.“把附/系在上”,如:attach labels to the luggage“把标签系(或贴)在行李上”。显然只有 B 符合题意。23.The doctor was in a _ whether he should tell the patient the truth.(分数:2.50)A.dilemma B.concessionC.diversionD.dizziness解析:考点 固定搭配 解析 be in a dilemma 意为“处在进退两难的境地”,所以 A 项最符合题意。concession“让步,妥协”;diversion“转向,转移
47、”;dizziness“头昏眼花”。24.Although he thought he was helping us with the work, he was actually _.(分数:2.50)A.on the wayB.in a wayC.in the way D.by the way解析:考点 词组辨析、理解与运用 解析 although 表明主从句的关系是转折,即他不是在帮忙而是在妨碍我们。on the way“在路上”;in a way“在某点上,在某种程度上”;in the way“妨碍人的,使人不便的”;by the way“顺便说,附带说说”。由此可见只有 C 是符合题意
48、的。25.Many Europeans _ the continent of Africa in the nineteenth century.(分数:2.50)A.explodedB.expandedC.exposedD.explored 解析:考点 形近词辨析 解析 explode“(使)爆炸”,如:explode an atom bomb“引爆一颗原子弹”;expand“扩张,膨胀,扩大”;expose“暴露,揭露”;explore“探险,探索”,如:Columbus discovered America but did not explore the new continent.(哥伦布发现了美洲,但未对此新大陆进行探测。)所以,根据题意应选D。26.The city government is going to take measures to _ the price.(分数:2.50)A.bring down B.put downC.turn do
