29、句的大意是:鸟衔着海贝飞起来,再将海贝抛向石头摔开。break open 是“摔开口”的意思,最适合本句的意思。cut 是用工具“切、割”的意思。press 是“压”的意思。shake 是“摇”的意思。2.People who walk on the grass are _ to a fine of $ 5.(分数:2.00)A.possibleB.likelyC.liable D.reliable解析:注释 本句的意思是:践踏草地者要罚款 5 美元。本题的考点是固定搭配词组的应用。be liable to 后面跟名词,为一个固定词组,意思为:“极有可能要面临”。possible 和 like
30、ly 为同义词,但其句型有所不同:“It is possible for sb.to do sth”和“Somebody is likely to do something”,意思都是“某人可能做某事”。reliable 意思为“可靠的”,不符合本句的意思。3.People do not always recall events as they _ actually.(分数:2.00)A.are happeningB.will happenC.happened D.would happen解析:注释 本题为语法考点。注意 recall 一词的意思为“回忆”。我们只能回忆过去发生过的事情,所以此
31、处应该是过去时态。as 为连词,在此的意思为“正像”。全句意思是:人们并不能原原本本回忆起所发生的事情。4.The Mona Lisa, _ in Italy, is now in the Louvre, a museum in Paris.(分数:2.00)A.who paintedB.who has paintedC.which paintedD.which was painted 解析:注释 The Mona Lisa 由于有冠词又斜体印刷,可以断定它不是一个人。后面又讲到它保存在博物馆,可以断定它极有可能为一幅画。paint 一词为及物动词,后面应该带宾语。如果 paint 后面没有宾
32、语只能判断其为一个被动语态结构,它的宾语被提到前面去了。本句中 The Mona Lisa 是 paint 的宾语。全句意思为:蒙娜丽莎这幅画完成于意大利,现存于巴黎卢浮宫博物馆。5.Dr. Hawking has made much contribution to the theories of modem physics at the _ of his health.(分数:2.00)A.cost B.disposalC.mercyD.expenditure解析:注释 本题的重点是固定搭配词组的应用。at the cost of 意思为“以为代价”;at the disposal of 意
33、思为“舍弃”; at the mercy of 意思为“受的影响(控制)”;at the expenditure of 为错误搭配,应该是 at the expense of,与 at the cost of 为同义词词组。全句意思为:霍金博士以他的健康为代价,在现代物理理论方面做出了巨大的贡献。6.John Smith, being a diligent student, never refuses to _ more responsibilities that are assigned to him.(分数:2.00)A.take upB.take inC.take offD.take o
34、n 解析:注释 应该区分四个词组的意思和用法。take up 意思为“占”,宾语一般为“时间”; take in 意思为“接受,容纳,了解”,宾语一般为较为抽象的概念,其被动语态形式 be taken in 意思为“上当,受骗”;take off 一般指“(飞机)起飞”;take on 意思为“承担”,后面一般跟“任务,工作”等。全句意思为:约翰史密斯是个用功的学生,给他再多的任务他也不会拒绝。7.Effective prevention against physical harms has never been _ urgently needed, especially in schools
35、.(分数:2.00)A.more B.asC.suchD.quite解析:注释 本题的关键是要区分四种选项的用法。注意 as 的正确用法应该是 as adj. (adv)as;such 应该与 that 搭配,组成 suchthat 的结构;quite 在本句中与前面的 never 不相配合。正确答案为 more。全句意思为:预防身体伤害的有效措施从未有过如此迫切的必要性,特别是在学校。8.A recent survey suggested that if money were not an issue, most mothers _ not to work at all.(分数:2.00)A
36、.should preferB.preferC.would prefer D.preferred解析:注释 本句的考点是虚拟语气。当条件句的时态是过去式时,主句的时态应该为 would 再加动词原型。本句中 were 与 would prefer 相对应,所以应该选 C。注意:suggest 由于其主语不是某人,所以它的意思不是“建议”,不能用后面的宾语从句跟动词原形的形式。suggest 在本句的意思为:“表明、显示”。全句意思为:一项最近的调研结果表明,如果经济上没有问题的话,大部分母亲宁愿什么工作也不做。9.The ATMs enable bank customers to access
37、 their money 24 hours a day and seven days a week _ ATMs are located.(分数:2.00)A.wherever B.wheneverC.howeverD.whatever解析:注释 应该搞清楚四个连接副词的意思区别,wherever 引导地点状语从句,whenever 引导时间状语从句,however 引导方式状语从句,whatever 引导宾语从句。首先庳判断句子最后部分从句的性质。此从句的关键词是“located”,意思是“位于,存在”,表示地点,所以应该选择 A。全句意思为:只要有自动取款机的地方,银行客户就能够随时取到钱
38、。10.Becoming aware of our mothers age, not just in numbers of years but _ her psychological and physical state, often helps us to understand her better.(分数:2.00)A.in spite ofB.on account ofC.in terms of D.by means of解析:注释 四个词组的意思不同:in spite of 意思为“尽管”,。no account of 意思为“由于”; in terms of 意思为“就来说,在方面”
39、;by means of 意思为“通过,以的方式”。应该正确理解整个句子,只有 C 项选择最适合本句的意义。全句意思为:清楚母亲的年龄,不光是具体的岁数,还有她精神和身体方面的状况,通常有助于我们更好地了解她。二、BPart Reading (总题数:15,分数:30.00)11.What does green building refer to nowadays?(分数:2.00)A.Buildings painted by green hands.B.Buildings covered with green plants.C.Buildings that are environmental
40、ly-friendly. D.Buildings like houses, factories, and offices.解析:注释 做一道阅读理解题最关键的地方是要找到文章中该道题所依据的句子,然后与四个选项进行比较,确定与依据句意思相同的选择项为正确答案。本道题的依据句是文章的第二句话。C 项选择的用词和意思与依据句相同。A 和 B 项选择的信息文章中没有出现,D 项选择的错误在于缺少“green”一词的概念。12.The word “Also“ (line 2, para. 2) is used to _.(分数:2.00)A.continue the discussion of tot
41、al U.S. electricity useB.expand the topic of reduction of energy and water useC.include the discussion of public transportationD.shift the focus to the topic of the environment protection 解析:注释 “Also”是一个连词,引导一个并列的概念,与前面的句子相对应。这两个句子的意思为:绿色建筑能够节能省水。此外,绿色建筑紧挨公共汽车或地铁之类的公共交通线,住户可以少用自己的汽车。这两个句子都是有关节能绿色建筑的
42、不同方面,都与环境保护有关系,与本段第一句话的侧重点不同。所以应该选择 D。A,B 和 C 项选择的意思与“Also”所引导的句子没有呼应关系。13.In terms of land use, green buildings are constructed by _.(分数:2.00)A.making use of developed land B.developing new landC.clearing the ground in a forestD.draining wild habitats解析:注释 本题的依据句是第二段最后一个句子,关键词是 on previously develo
43、ped land,与 A 项选择的意思相同。其他选择项的信息在文章中找不到依据,属于无关信息。14.Why are some people not so enthusiastic about green buildings?(分数:2.00)A.Because they do not jump into green building.B.Because they fail to move into a green building.C.Because they find it more costly to live in a green building. D.Because they thi
44、nk that solar panels still cost too much.解析:注释 本题的依据句是文章最后一段的第二个句子,意思为:有些人认为,像太阳能电池板这样的设施,其费用大大超过了传统的能源设施。四项选择中,A 和 B 选择的内容没有在文章中出现,属于无关信息。后面两项选择的区别在于:C 项选择的意思强调绿色建筑的运行成本高。这一观点依据是:绿色环保的前期费用大大高于传统的节能方式,正好是本句话的意思。D 项选择说的是太阳能电池板的费用高,但这只是诸多因素的一个方面。应注意 features such as这一表达法的含义。15.What did Marty Dettling
45、mean when she said, “Its going to be big?“(分数:2.00)A.Green buildings have a great potential. B.People expect bigger green buildings.C.Green buildings will be larger in size.D.People prefer to live in bigger buildings.解析:注释 首先应找到文章的最后一个句子,分析句子中的支持信息和线索。可以判断, green buildings will become common in the
46、future 与 its going to be big 为同义句子。所以,A 项选择的“绿色建筑具有很大潜力”最接近依据句的意思。其他选项的信息在文章中没有出现。16.The word “attractions“ ( line 1, para. 2) refers to _.(分数:2.00)A.theme parks B.bargainsC.e-ticketsD.discounts解析:注释 应该特别注意 attractions 前面的代词 these,它应该反指前面出现的某一个词,而 C 和D 项选择只在后面出现,B 项选择意思错误。所以,只能选择 A 为正确答案。 attraction
47、s 在此指的是theme parks“主题公园”。17.Why do more and more theme parks offer large discounts off the gate price?(分数:2.00)A.To get in line at the parks this summer.B.To encourage more people to come to the parks. C.To enable people to get e-tickets at home.D.To reduce the attendance figure.解析:注释 本题的依据句是第二段后半句话
48、,in part to spur attendance that has declined in recent years 意思为:部分原因是为了提高最近几年不断下降的参观率。它与 B 项选择“为了吸引更多的人来公园”意思一致。其他选择项都包含有错误信息或无关信息。18.What does the sentence “The boom was off the rose“ mean?(分数:2.00)A.The rose in the theme park was out of bloom.B.The year 2000 was lucky for the 50 establishments.C.The theme park attendance was like the rose.D.The best time for the theme parks was gone. 解析:注释 应该将这个句子放在上下文的背景下进行理解。“之所以进一步打折降价就是因为来的人更少了”。The boom was off the rose 是一个比喻的说法,意思为:好日子一去不返。只有 D 项选择最为接近这个意思。19.What is t
