34、e is a leather suitcase, _ broken, in the storeroom.(分数:1.00)A.the handle of itB.with its handle C.whose handleD.the handle of which解析:解析本题考查 with 表示伴随状态的用法。这里的 its 指的是小皮箱的,指代更为明确。故答案为 B。2.Before the age of the Internet, we used to _ our holidays through travel agents.(分数:1.00)A.book B.having booked
35、C.bookingD.have booked解析:解析 本题考查 used to do 这一结构。如果熟悉 used to do 这一结构,不难选出正确选项应为选项 A。used to do 意为“过去常常做”。 used to do 常常会与 be used to doing 混淆,be used to doing 意为“习惯做”两者除了意思不同外,也可从时态上加以区别:used to do 中的 used 是“动词”use 的一般过去时,这一结构只能用于一般过去时态;be used to doing 中的 be 动词可有各种时态的变化,这一结构可用于过去、现在或将来时态。3._ I kno
36、w, he has never worked in that company. He probably told a lie.(分数:1.00)A.As long asB.As far as C.As well asD.As soon as解析:解析 本题考查固定结构 as far as 的用法。as far as 是英语中的习惯用法,意思是“达到程度;就而言”,在本句中与 I know 一起构成 as far as I know 的结构,意思是“就我所知”,类似的结构还有 as far as I see“依我看”等。故选项 B 为正确答案。 A 项“as long as”是连词词组,表示“只
37、要”的意思,C 项“as well as”是常用的连接词,一般用于连接两个并列的单词或短语表示“和”;D 项“as;soon as”引导时间状语从句表示“一就”的意思誊以上三个选项均不合句意,故为错误选项。4.He _ to be clever but dishonest.(分数:1.00)A.thoughtB.thought asC.thinksD.was thought 解析:被动语态。5.Which do you think is _ important, health or wealth?(分数:1.00)A.mostB.the mostC.the moreD.more 解析:解析 句
38、意:你认为哪个更重要:健康还是金钱?该句考查的是形容词比较级的用法。句中只有两个可比项,故用 more。三、Section B(总题数:5,分数:5.00)6.When you called the manager at nine yesterday morning, he (have) 1 a meeting. (分数:1.00)解析:was having解析 考查时态。表示在过去某一时刻正在发生的动作,用过去进行时。7.Rather than (break) 1up his marriage, he told his wife everything. (分数:1.00)解析:break 解
39、析 本题考查介词宾语的用法。rather than 之后可以使用动词不定式“to+动词原形”或直接接动词原形。又因为 rather than 结构被置于句首,因此需要使用动词原形 break。 除连接动词不定式之外,rather than 结构还可以连接两个动词,如:He ran rather than walked(他是跑来的而不是走来的。)这里 rather than 后用了 walked,而没有用 walk,表示客观事实,而不是主观愿望。如果换作 walk,则作“宁愿而不愿”解。8.Neither the clerks nor the manager (know) 1 anything
40、about the accident now. (分数:1.00)解析:knows 解析 主谓一致 由 neithernor 连接的并列结构作主语,随后的动词形式通常按照“就近原则”处理。如: Neither the Kansas coach nor the players were confident of victory题干中靠近谓语动词的是manager,因此要用第三人称单数 knows。类似的用法还有 not onlybut also,eitheror,or,nor 等。如:My sisters or my brother is likely to be home9.They woul
41、d rather try and fail than (give) 1 up the plan. (分数:1.00)解析:giveWould rather 后连接两个对等结构,动词 try 用的是原形,所以 give 也用原形。10.They went out in a hurry, leaving the door (unlock) 1. (分数:1.00)解析:unlocked 解析 分词 unlock 与其逻辑主语 the door 之间是被动关系,因此应该用过去分词作宾补。四、Part Reading Compr(总题数:0,分数:0.00)1In our system of educ
42、ation today, examinations area common feature. Our present education system has often been criticized as too examination-oriented (以考试为导向的). However, one must remember that in offices and other areas of work, examinations still feature clearly. There is no doubt that the fear and influence of examin

In the university, students have to pass annual examinations before they are allowed to continue, or study a harder syllabus (教学大纲).
45、Moreover, for entrance into a university, pre-university examination results would provide a guide as to whether a student has the minimum qualifications necessary.
