15、 is nature“s 20 of giving you a tuneup.（分数：50.00）公共英语二级-118 答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、英语知识运用(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、第一节 单项填空(总题数：20，分数：50.00)1.I don“t think Jill would be a good teacher. She“s got _ patience with children.（分数：2.50）A.plentyB.muchC.lessD.little 解析：解析 考查形容词用法和句意理解。首先，本题没有比较，故比较级 less 肯定不恰当；
16、其次，其余三个选项在语法上都正确，关键是要根据前半部分的句意逻辑来确定答案。前一句属于“否定转移”，即语法上否定主句，意义上否定从句，故其句意为“我认为基尔不会是个好老师”，由逻辑可知，后半部分应为“她对孩子没有多少耐心”，因此应选含否定义的 little。2.Do you still remember _ Jane at our son“s birthday party three months ago?（分数：2.50）A.meeting B.to meetC.to be metD.being met解析：解析 考查动词用法。remember/forget 这两个词后既可跟不定式，又可跟动
17、名词，但表达的意思不同。接不定式时，表示的是不定式动作尚未发生；接动名词时，表示动名词代表的动作已经发生，只是“记得起”或“记不起”而已。本题空格后有明确的过去时间，表明 meet 这个动作已经发生，故应用其动名词形式。3.Just think, in _ three months it“ll be summer again.（分数：2.50）A.otherB.another C.theseD.those解析：解析 考查代词用法。由句意不难看出，此处指的是“再过三个月”，故选含“另一(个)”的another。注意，another 并非只能跟单数可数名词。其余三个代词都不合题目要求：other
18、指的是不特定范围内的“其他”，而本题明显有月份的限定，故不能填入；these 和 those 都是特指(前者为近指，后者为远指)，但本题也没有特指含义。4.Tony couldn“t go to university but _ his education through evening school courses.（分数：2.50）A.continueB.continued C.continuesD.to continue解析：解析 考查时态。本题关键是理解 but 的作用。结合题目和选项可以看出，but 在此用作连词，连接两个并列句，后一分句承前省略了主语 Tony。既然是并列句，那么前
19、后分句的时态应保持一致，故B 正确。注意，此题并非 cannot()but这种用法，在这种用法中，but 后用动词原形。5.Do you agree that power is _ makes things work?（分数：2.50）A.nothingB.anythingC.what D.that解析：解析 考查句子结构与从句连接词。由句子结构不难发现，空格后是一个从句，填入的词在从句中作主语。nothing 不合句意与常识；that 不能在从句中作句子成分；anything 看似正确，但它含有“任意”义，且它不能起连接作用，其后应当有另外的连接词。只有 what 既能起连接作用，又可在从句
20、中作句子成分(主语、宾语等)，它相当于 anything that，故是正确答案。6.She is _ interested in physics. She often works at it until _ into the night.（分数：2.50）A.deep; deepB.deep; deeplyC.deeply; deep D.deeply; deeply解析：解析 考查副词用法。deep 和 deeply 都是副词，区别在于前者多用于具体事物，后者多用于抽象事物。从本题来说，“深感兴趣”是抽象的，而“夜深”则是具体的，所以选 C。7.What shall we use for
21、power when all the oil in the world has been _?（分数：2.50）A.given outB.put outC.held upD.used up 解析：解析 考查固定搭配。Give out 分发，公布；put out 扑灭，发出，放到外面；hold up 支撑，阻止；use up 用光，用完。句意明显是指燃料用完，故选 D。8.The driver was _ for the traffic accident.（分数：2.50）A.not blameB.not to be blamedC.not to blame D.not to be blame解
22、析：解析 考查动词用法。blame 不但可以指主动的“责备(别人)”，还可用于 sb. be to blame for这一习惯用法，指“某人应(为某事)担责任或受到责备”，即可用主动形式表达被动含意。9.As gas is getting more and more expensive, many people are _ public transportation.（分数：2.50）A.looking forB.setting upC.turning to D.changing into解析：解析 考查短语动词辨义。四个选项都属于短语动词这种形式的固定搭配：look for 指“寻找”，se
23、t up 指“建立”，turn to 指“求助于，转向”，change into 指“(使)变成，换(衣服)”。结合常识不难看出，句意指“很多人都转而乘坐公共交通工具”，因此本题答案为 C。10.The water will be further polluted unless some measures_（分数：2.50）A.will be takenB.are taken C.were takenD.had been taken解析：解析 考查时态。表示一种假定的情况时，主句如果用一般将来时态，从句则用一般现在时态。11.Though _ money, his parents manage
24、d to send him to university.（分数：2.50）A.lackedB.lack ofC.lacking D.lacked in解析：解析 考查动词用法。lack 既可作名词，又可作动词。作名词时，lack 后可跟介词 oh 作动词时，lack 是及物动词，其后直接跟宾语。因此 B、D 两项明显不对。而由句子结构可知，句子主语(his parents)就是动词 lack 的主语，故应用表主动的非谓语形式 lacking。12.Something must be done. There will not be enough space even to stand _ the
25、 earth.（分数：2.50）A.inB.onC.in on D.on in解析：解析 考查介词用法。首先，space 不能直接作 stand 的宾语，只能用 in space 作状语(但 in 不能换成 on)；其次，on the earth 指“在地球(表面)上”，而 in 一般不与 the earth 连用。所以本题只能选 C。13.“Cars and buses burn oil.“ _（分数：2.50）A.So do many other machines B.Many other machines do soC.So many other machines doD.Many ot
26、her machines so do解析：解析 考查省略表达。so 可用于省略回答，表示与前文说的情况一样。但当 so 位于句首时，句子要部分倒装，即将助动词提到主语前、so 后，构成“so+助动词+主语”这样一种表达。只有 A 的形式正确。14.John and Sue _ computer games for hours before their parents came home from work（分数：2.50）A.are playingB.have been playingC.playedD.had been playing 解析：解析 考查时态。由于从句是 before 引出的表
27、过去的时间状语，因此主句也要用过去时态；而主句中又有一个表示时间段的状语 for hours，故主句还要用完成时态。D 项为过去完成进行时，强调在过去某一时间段内一直做某事，符合题目要求。15. Would you mind holding the door open for me, please? _.（分数：2.50）A.Don“t mention itB.Oh, with pleasure C.Well, that“s all rightD.Thank you all the same解析：解析 考查表达。回答 Would you mind问句(它表达的实际上是一种请求或要求)，表示“不
28、介意”时，用 NO 直接回答，或者用 with pleasure 等礼貌性用法，故答案为 B。其余三项中，A 和 C 都用于回答别人对自己的感谢，即“不用谢”，而 D 则为感谢他人的用语。16.Why do you want a new job _ you“ve got such a good one already?（分数：2.50）A.thatB.whereC.whichD.when 解析：17.He insisted that his brother _ the window. It was clear that someone else broke the window.（分数：2.5

36、解析 此空前一句意为“行走就像游泳、骑自行车和跑步是一种有氧运动”，此空所在句意为“通过增加给皮肤和肌肉的供氧而塑造更大的肺活量和耐力。”由这两句可知，此空应填which，which 引导定语从句，修饰“allaerobic exercise”。解析：prevention解析 本句意为“这样的运动可能是心脏和血液循环疾病的一个主要因素。”显然，此空处应填“防止”。解析：most解析 由本句中的“the least strenuous，safest”可知，此空处应填表示程度的最高级，再由 acceptable exercise“接受的运动”可知应填 most。解析：at解析 “以舒适的速度行走”
37、用英语说应是“walking at a comfortable speed”，介词应用at。解析：by解析 显然，由本句句意可知此空处应填一个表示“通过”的介词，应用介词 by。解析：than解析 由“a moremost other”可知，此空处显然应填 than，短语 more than other 表示“比其他更多的”。解析：walking解析 由上两段可知，该短文主要讲述步行的好处，此处做试验，肯定是测试步行。解析：equal解析 equal to 意为“等于”，由句意“显示出同样年龄的男人每周在同样时段进行 3次慢跑。”可知，此空必须填“等于”。解析：significantly解析
38、由本句句意“他们的正常心率和身体脂肪减少”可知，此空应填一个副词，修饰 decreased，该副词意思应为“显着地，明显地”。解析：some解析 由“of the importantbenefits”可知，此空应填一个代词，又由于 benefits 为可数名词复数，故填 some。解析：bring解析 bring about 为介词短语，意为“带来”。解析：also解析 本句意为“步行燃烧脂肪。”由上几段可知，这是步行的另一个好处，故此空应填“也”。解析：lose解析 本句意为“需要 3,500 卡的能量来获得或一磅重量。”显然，此空应与 gain 相对。解析：burn解析 本句意为“因为以中
39、等速度走 1 小时的路将会300 至 360 卡的能量。”显然，此空应填“燃烧”。“燃烧”英语表达为“burn up”。解析：yearly解析 由 a pound-and-a-half monthly 可知，18 pounds 必定比 monthly 周期长，而且通过计算可知为 yearly。解析：lose解析 本句意为“为了更快重量，每天走-4时”， 显然，走路是为了减轻重量，而不是增加重量。解析：Whatever解析 由本句句意“你的年龄，现在都是”可知，此空应填“无论，不管”。解析：give解析 由此空前面的“to give your”可知，此空也应填 give，意为“花同样时间考虑身体和养老金或保险。”解析：against解析 本句意为“步行是一种关键的防御疾病和衰老。”显然，此空处应填“抵抗，抵御”。解析：way解析 本句意为“这是自然界给你的一种调整的”显然，此空应填“方式，方法”。
