44、00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、BPart Vocabula(总题数：10，分数：20.00)1.Scarcely _such an exciting football match.（分数：2.00）A.have I ever seen B.I have ever seenC.saw ID.I saw解析：注释 本题属于语法中否定词位于句首，需要将句子的助动词和主语位置颠倒的倒装句型考点。“Scarcely”属于否定词，所以应该选倒装句型结构 A。这类句型的意义在于在句子的语气上起强调否定作用。B 和 D 项不是倒装句型；C 项的正确倒装句型应该是“did I see”。2._, we wen

45、t out for a swim in the lake.（分数：2.00）A.The day being hot B.It was hotC.It is hotD.The day was not解析：注释 本题的考点是英语的独立结构句式。应该看到，句中的标点符号为逗号，前后只能有一个主句。由于后面的句子是主句，所以前半句话不能再使用谓语动词形式使其成为另一个句子。如果用句号，B 和 D 项都对；C 项的时态也有错误。3.It has been estimated that the earths surface temperature has increased _one quarter to

46、 three fourths of a degree since 1850.（分数：2.00）A.by B.atC.toD.with解析：注释 应该掌握选择项中四个介词的不同用法，修饰数字的介词一般为“by”，所以 A 项正确。全句意思为“据估计，从 1850 年以来，地表温度增加了 0.25 到 0.75 度”。4.It was in the name of freedom _Kennedy led his country deeper into its cruel, hopeless war in Vietnam.（分数：2.00）A.whenB.asC.whileD.that 解析：注释

47、 本题属于强调句型“it isthat”的考点，考生需要熟记这个句型。5.The software is a popular tool in business, where it _and simplifies such procedures as budgeting.（分数：2.00）A.puts onB.puts forwardC.takes afterD.speeds up 解析：注释 A 项“put on”意思为“穿(戴)上”；B 项“put forward”意思为“提出”；C 项“take after”意思为“相像”；D 项“speed up”意思为“加速”。从意思上判断，只有 D

48、项符合全句的整体概念。全句意思为“软件在生意场合使用很普遍，它能加快和简化诸如预算这样的程序。”6.The former governor withdrew from political life and as _he was soon forgotten.（分数：2.00）A.an endB.a result C.an outcomeD.an event解析：注释 本题的考点是固定搭配词组。“as a result”=“consequently”意思为“结果”。其他词组意思或搭配有误。7.Most people have come to realize that it is about time the government _further measures to control the population.（分数：2.00）A.must takeB.is takingC.takesD.took 解析：注释 本题的语法考点是虚拟语气中用过去时态的句型结构“it is (about/high) time that somebody did something”
