35、修饰比较级 more important 重要得多。其余三选项无此功能。2.Mr. Johnson, together with his wife and two daughters, _ to arrive on the evening flight.(分数:1.00)A.are goingB.areC.will beD.is going 解析:解析 句子意思是:约翰逊先生将同他妻子及两个女儿坐晚上的航班抵达。当句子主语是 sb. together with sb.时,句子谓语由第一个 sb.决定。3.Our students are free to study _ interests th
36、em.(分数:1.00)A.thatB.whichC.whatever D.anything解析:解析 名词性从句 解析 空格前是动词 study,后面需要的成分来做 study 的宾语;空格后有谓语和宾语,此处需要主语。既可作引导词引导宾语从句又可以作主语的只有 what 和 whatever,所以答案选 C)。 避错 A)that 不能做 interests them 的主语;B)which 引导定语从句,可是 which 前面没有先行词可修饰;D)anything 后面需要加 that 引导的定语从句才正确,而巳 that 不能省略。4._ the temperature falling
37、 so rapidly, we couldn“t go on with the experiment.(分数:1.00)A.SinceB.ForC.AsD.With 解析:解析 独立主格结构 解析 with+分词逻辑主语+分词构成分词独立主格结构。空格后的 the temperature falling、so rapidly 是分词逻辑主语+分词构成的分词独立主格结构,so rapidly 作分词的状语。 避错 空格后不是真正的句子,而是分词结构,因此不能选 Since,For 和 As,因为这三个词需要引导完整句子构成从句。5.The windmill, which has been use
38、d for hundreds of years to pump water and grind grains, _ redesigned to produce electricity.(分数:1.00)A.it is now beingB.it now canC.is now being D.now being解析:解析 几百年来一直被用来抽水碾谷用的风车现在正被重新设计用来发电。从句子结构看,本句的主语是 windmill(风车),which 引导的是非限制性定语从句,用来说明主语,空白处只缺动词。选项 A和选项 B 的结构均为“主语+动词”,可以排除。而选项 D 不能直接用作主要谓语词,也
39、可以排除,所以选项中,只有 C 是动词,而且是被动语态,正合题意,强调进行。例:The building now is being designed那座新楼正在设计之中。三、Section B(总题数:5,分数:5.00)6.The doorman politely requested she 1(be) quiet in the building. (分数:1.00)解析:(should)be 解析 门卫有礼貌地要求她在大楼里保持安静。 解析 本题考查宾语从句虚拟语气。由于主句使用了动词 request,而这一动词之后的宾语从句一般需要使用“should动词原形”的形式,其中 should
40、可以省略,因此留空处为(should)be。 答题指南 要掌握英语中常见的宾语从句需要使用动词原形结构的单词,如表示“要求”的动词:ask,desire demand,request,require 等;表示“建议,劝告”的动词:suggest,propose,recommend 等;表示“命令”的动词:Command,order 等。7.The speed of the machine may be automatically (regulate) 1. (分数:1.00)解析:regulated8.If you had spoken clearly, you 1(understand).
41、(分数:1.00)解析:would have been understood解析 考点:虚拟语气。此处虚拟条件句用的是过去完成时(与过去事实相反),那么主句就应当用 would/could/might have+过去分词,因主句主语 you 与 understood 之间是被动关系,故用 would have been done。9.Falling in love for the first time is like (discover) 1 a new universe full of pleasure and closeness. (分数:1.00)解析:discovering 此句需判断
42、 like 的词性。因为 like 前有 be 动词,故 like 在此作介词,表示“象一样”。故填 discover 的动名词形式。句意:初恋就像发现充满欢乐和亲密的新宇宙。10.Because Lily was having a meeting, I was made (wait) 1 her for several hours. (分数:1.00)解析:to wait解析 使役动词 make 通常用作 make sbdo sth,即 do 前面省略 to,但使用被动语态时要加上 to,用做 be made to do sth,所以答案为 to wait。四、Part Reading Co
