28、mixture 2.officially 3.contributions4defeated 5.replace 6.servant 7.occupying8entire 9.therefore 10.process.1.A 句意：昨天下午我给格林夫人打电话的时候，她正忙着给她的儿子选 T 恤衫。be occupied in doing sth.忙于做某事，符合句意及句子结构的要求，可用 be absorbed in doing sth.替换；addicted 通常与介 词 to 搭配，be addicted to对上瘾。2B consist of 在此表示“由组成” ，不用于被动语态。若用 m
29、ake up，则要用其被动形式。3C 由“I cant go.busy then.”可知，此处表达的意思是“即使被邀请” ，even though invited 是 even though I am invited 的省略形式。4C 句意：在课堂上，电脑 永远不会取代老师。本句主 语是“老师” ，be replaced by 意 为“被 取代” 。5B rise 为不及物动词，后不能跟 宾语，所以排除 A、D 项；raised 与 fired是并列谓语，形式上应一致，所以 B 项正确。6A 后句句意：过量饮酒会引发心脏病和高血压 。contribute to 引发，是的原因之一，符合语 境。
30、 relate to 涉及；attend to 处理，照料；devote 后要接宾语。7B 句意：由于司机的粗心大意，那 辆长途客车在寒冬腊月的一个早上失控掉进了河里。out of control 失去控制，与 the drivers carelessness 相吻合。 under control 在控制之下，within reach 够得着，out of reach 够不着。8D 句意：他成功不是因为他聪明，努力工作是他进步的原因所在。lie in在于；lead to 引起，引发。9A 句意：社会是由形形色色的人组成的。be made up of“由组成，由构成” ，符合句意。10B 考查表
31、语从句。disagree 为不及物动词，所以要用连接副词。11B 句意：汤姆掌管公司，也就是 说，公司在他的掌管之下。in control(of)“控制，掌握；管理” 。in the control of“受控制” ，主语一般为物。12B 句意：这种打印机质量优良。如果它在第一年中出了毛病，我 们将无偿维修。 题干第二句为虚拟 条件句，且表示 对将来情况的虚拟，故从句 谓语形式为“should 动词原形” 。13A be different from 是形容词词组；differ from 是动词词组；differently是副词；difference 是名词。句意： 这个政治家所说的与他所做的
32、不同吗？故本题答案为 A。14B 本题主要考查 sure 和 certain 两个形容词的区别。It is/was certain that.为固定句型；sure 后接 that 从句时，其主 语不能是 it，故排除 A 项；C 项意为“不确定” ，不符合句意；D 项为副词，不能作表语，排除 D 项。句意：保护文化遗产能对这个城镇的发展有很大好处，这是确信无疑的。故本题答案为 B。15A 句意：你说得太快了。你能 说得稍微慢一点吗？a bit 是程度副词，修饰比较级 more slowly，语序为“程度副词比较级” 。.1.B 主旨大意题。本文第一段概括 说明英语很难 学，第二、三和四段从三个
33、方面介绍了英语难学的原因，故答案为 B。2C 细节理解题。根据第二段 There are hard and soft consonants like “c” taking on a “k”sound or an “s”sound depending upon the situation.可知，答案为C。3A 细节理解题。根据第三段 Another thing that makes English difficult to learn has to do with verb tense.和 English，on the other hand，is a bit more difficult in

35、are famous for the amazing heights they can reach bounce after bounce 可知，令人感 兴趣的是它能够多次弹起并且弹得很高。7B 根据第二段 He finally sold his invention to a toy manufacture WhamO可知，WhamO 认为这项发 明能够给他带来经济效益，所以他将这项发明完善并把它做成了玩具。8A 根据第三段 When dropped from the shoulder level，a Super Ball will bounce back almost all the way
36、 to where it was dropped 可知，作者是通过举例来说明超级球有巨大弹力。9D 根据第五段 In the 1960s，the Super Ball quickly became a fashionable toy 可知，在六十年代早期，超级球很流行。10C 根据最后一段 that each years football championship be called the“Super Bowl”可知，Super Bowl 和一项体育运动的赛事有关。.1.Mother is doing housework while father is playing cards. 2.Even though I have to walk all the way，Ill go there. 3.The question of whether human beings can live on the moon is still difficult to answer. 4.Medical science has made great contributions to the health of human beings. 5.It is a good paper，aside from a few spelling mistakes.
