40、：0，分数：0.00)二、Section A(总题数：5，分数：5.00)1._ the result, I would not have asked you to tell me.（分数：1.00）A.If I knowB.Had I known C.I had knownD.If I knew解析：解析 此题考查虚拟语气倒装句的用法。从主句谓语形式可知其为对过去的虚拟，从句应为与之形式一致的虚拟语气，即用过去完成时，省略 if 时应用倒装。2.So little _ about chemistry that the lecture was completely beyond me.（分数：
41、1.00）A.did I know B.I knowC.do I knowD.I knew解析：解析 我对化学了解甚少，所以这个演讲我完全听不懂。 考点 倒装句 解析 little 相当于一个否定词，与副词 so 放在句首时，句子需要部分倒装，另外助动词 do 的时态要与 that 从句的时态保持一致，故选 A。3.Don“t leave matches or cigarettes on the table within _ of little children.（分数：1.00）A.handB.reach C.spaceD.distance解析：4.It is necessary that
42、he _ us.（分数：1.00）A.help B.helpsC.helpedD.would help解析：和 54 题一样，It is necessary 后从句中动词用虚拟语气，即动词原形。5.The president who has won the election _ on television next week.（分数：1.00）A.be to speakB.is to speak C.is speakingD.to speak解析：解析 本题考查谓语动词的时态。句中的时间状语是表示将来的 next week，所以谓语动词应该用表示将来的形式，选项 A、B 中的 be to do
43、 sth可以表示将来，又出为要作第三人称单数的谓语，故选项 B 为正确答案。 避错指南 A 项和 D 项都不能直接作谓语，可以首先判断为错误。C 项使用现在进行时，在此不当，因为next week 既不表示即将到来的未来，speak 也不能用进行时表示未来，故应予以排除。三、Section B(总题数：5，分数：5.00)6.Human beings are (create) 1 animals. （分数：1.00）解析：creative 形容词作 animals 的定语。7.His boss regards him as no more than a (type) 1and he is no
44、t given career opportunities. （分数：1.00）解析：typist 解析 本题考查动词与名词的转换。type 是动词，而空白处需填入表示人的名词，即“打字员”，所以用 typist。 答题指南 英语中常用-ist 这一后缀表示某一类人，如：artist，scientist 等。此外，type 的形容词形式是 typical (典型的)。8.He could described the wallet (exact) 1 , so he was owner of it. （分数：1.00）解析：exactly 句意：他能确切地描述那个钱包，所以他是那个钱包的主人。副词
45、修饰动词。9.In 1968 an international balloon race was (hold) 1 to collect money for some churches in the south of England. （分数：1.00）解析：held 解析 在 1968 年举行了一场国际热气球比赛，为英国南部的教堂筹款。 解析 本题测试被动语态的用法。主语和谓语间的关系是被动的。故用过去分词 held。10.I broke a glass while I (cook) 1 the dinner. （分数：1.00）解析：was cooking解析 当我做饭时，我打破了一只杯子
46、。表示动作正在进行用正在进行时。四、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)All over the world mention of the British education suggests a picture of the “public school“, and it suggests in particular the names of certain very famous institutionsEton, Oxford and Cambridge; but people do not always realize what place these i
