1、再接再厉(课后巩固类训练)Elementary exercises(基础题).Multiple choice.(选择填空。)1.We cannot figure out(搞清楚) _ quite a number of insects, birds and animals are dying out.A.thatB.asC.whyD.when1.解析:考查宾语从句的用法。cant figure out(搞不清楚) ,后面接的是宾语从句,本句是要表达“我们不能搞清楚为什么许多昆虫、鸟类和动物都正在灭绝”,其中缺原因状语,故选 C。从句本身用现在进行时态,所以不需要用表示时间的 when。其他两项
2、意思不符。答案:C2.I have always been honest and straight forward(直率的),and it doesnt matter _ Im talking to.A.who is itB.who it isC.it is whoD.it is whom2.解析:考查强调句型在宾语从句中的用法。it doesnt matter 引导一个宾语从句,而从四个选项看,这个宾语从句应该是一个强调结构,强调句型若在宾语从句中,则应使用陈述语序即用 who it is。答案:B3.Are you still thinking about yesterdays game?
3、Oh,thats _.A.what makes me feel excitedB.whatever I feel excited aboutC.how I feel about itD.when I feel excited3.解析:what 引导表语从句,what 在表语从句中作主语。根据句意,是“yesterdays game” 使我感到很兴奋,而不是要说 “无论什么、不管什么”,所以 B 项不对。C 项回答“ 这就是我对昨天比赛的感觉”不是上句的问题的答案。D 项意思也不对。 答案:A4. _ made the school proud was _ more than 90% of th
4、e students had been admitted to key universities.A.What;becauseB.What;thatC.That;whatD.That;because4.解析:was 之前是一个主语从句,这个主语从句中的 make 前缺主语,故用 what;was 之后是表语从句,表语从句不缺成分,是一个陈述事实的句子,故用连接词 that。答案:B5.Whats your cousin like?_.A.Hes working hardB.Hes tall and kind-heartedC.He plays football wellD.Hes like h
5、is father5.解析:What is sb. like?询问某人相貌特征及品质,注重性格、品质方面。而 What does sb. look like?注重询问某人的外貌特征,答语中常常是描写外貌 的词。答案:B6.As we joined the big crowd,I got _ from my friends.A.separatedB.sparedC.lostD.missed6.解析:get separated from sb.“跟/和某人走散” ;在 get (连系动词) +p.p.结构中 get意为“受到、遭到” 。spare 的意思是“腾出、抽出”;miss 的意思是“想念、
6、错过” ;lose 的意思是“失去、丢失” 。答案:A7.The woman is older than she _.A.looksB.looks atC.is lookedD.is looked at7.解析:从前面的“The woman is older”可以看出本句是要表达“这个女人比她实际看上去年龄要大一点儿”, look 此处应为连系动词, “看上去、看起来”。而 B、C 和 D 三项中都把它当成实义动词,作为实义动词是“看”而不是“ 看上去、看起来 ”的意思,它是不及物动词,后面要跟介词才可以加宾语。答案:A8.Little Tommy was reluctant to tell
7、the schoolmaster _ he had done the day before.A.thatB.howC.whereD.what8.解析:tell sb. sth.,空格后应是一个宾语从句,而这个宾语从句中缺少 had done 的宾语,故选连接代词 what,引导 tell 的宾语从句。若宾语从句中缺少方式状语,地点状语时才可以用 how 和 where 引导。而 that 引导宾语从句是不担当成分,只是连接词的作用。答案:D9.Mother wont _ us to go out alone,because we are not old enough.A.haveB.allow
8、C.agreeD.hope9.解析:四个动词的结构分别为:have sb.do.,allow sb.to do.,agree to do.,hope to do.。答案:B10.You should be on time for the meeting to be held tomorrow,which is of great _.A.importantB.usefulC.importanceD.valuable10.解析:考查“be of+抽象名词”的结构。be of+抽象名词=be+形容词。如:The diamond is of great value.它就等于是说 The diamond
9、 is very valuable.(这条项链很珍贵)。答案:C11.The lecturer spoke so fast that we couldnt quite _ him.A.catch up withB.listen toC.followD.hear11.解析:catch up with 的意思是“赶上、追上” ;而 listen to 是听的动作,hear 是听的结果,听到。根据前面“The lecturer spoke so fast”可推测“我们不能听明白他的话”, follow sb.表示“听明白某人的话” 。答案:C12.We would _ if you would vi
10、sit us.A.honorB.be honoredC.be honoringD.honored12.解析:honor sb.表示“ 使某人感到荣幸、给某人荣誉 ”,sb. be honored 意为“某人感到很荣幸”,此处 we would be honored 意为“我们将无比荣幸”。答案:B13.I have finished my homework._.Lets go to play tennis.A.So have IB.I have soC.So did ID.So you do13.解析:此处是回应对方的话,意为“我也完成了”。时态形式也要和前面的一致,所以 A 项正确。So h
11、ave I 等于 I have finished my homework too.答案:A14.Do you think its going to rain?_.A.I hope notB.I dont think itC.I dont hope itD.I dont think14.解析:考查省略回答的用法。肯定的省略回答可用 I hope/think/believe.so;否定的省略回答常用 I hope/think/believe.not。答案:A15.Dont buy shoes without _.A.trying them onB.try on themC.trying on th
12、emD.try on15.解析:根据信息词 without,此处应用动名词,因此排除了 B 和 D,try on sth.是“试穿”,其中的 on 是副词,因此 try on 的宾语是人称代词时,只能放在它们之间,而不能放在 on 的后面。所以,正确答案是 A。答案:AIntegrated exercises(综合题).Cloze.(完形填空。)阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A 、B、C、D)中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。In my hometown there lived a sixty-year-old man.He was very 1 and never got ill.H

20、B.back C.less D.better20.A.leg B.body C.flesh D.blood答案:1.解析:只有 B 项与文章的主旨相符,另外, and 后的 never got ill 也对此答案给予了暗示。答案:B2.解析:前句说到“He had liked eating poisonous snakes since he was a boy”,据此可以推出本句的意思说的是他上山“捕” 蛇,只有 catch 才能准确表达出这个意思。 collect 是“收集、搜集”的意思;search 搜寻, “搜寻什么东西”要用 search for;discover 是“发现、探索”的
21、意思。答案:C3.解析:根据上下文判断此句的意思应该是“他不知道(记不清)被蛇咬伤过多少次”。若用 count ,此句的意思就成了“他没有数” ;mind 意思是“介意”;而 forget 的意思是“忘记”,不符合 句意。答案:D4.解析:根据后面的文字,有一次他没有带药而被蛇咬,结果没有任何事情,自此如果被蛇咬他就不吃蛇毒药了,可见以前他被蛇咬通常都是要吃药的了。其他三个选项意思不符。答案:A5.解析:4 和 5 这两个空应当联系起来理解,前者说的是通常的情况,后者则指的是一次特殊的情况。答案:B6.解析:根据常识,被毒蛇咬伤是有致命的危险的,而他竟然不服药、不治疗,所以几乎是没有人会“相信
22、” 的。答案:D7.解析:根据后面他的激烈反应“He picked up a big stone and ran after the dog” “the old man caught up with it,the dog lay down and died”,我们可以判断老人是被狗咬伤了。knock 是“敲打、击打”的意思;而 cut 是用利器“ 切、割”的意思。答案:B8.解析:文中说到“He picked up a big stone and ran after the dog”,前后联系起来分析他当时的心态,此处只有选 angry 最合适。答案:A9.解析:从文章最后一段可以看出,这位老
23、人身上的毒比一条大毒蛇身上的毒还要多,所以这里狗咬了他,很快毒性发作,迅速死亡。用 before 说明老人身上的毒性之大。答案:C10.解析:这里用 before 和 after 来表明时间关系,说明狗中毒死亡之 “快”,反衬出他身上蛇毒之浓烈。答案:D11.解析:D 项不可用,它是一个瞬间动词。 B 项表示的动作具有明确的方向性,意思是“去某地方拿”,用在这里文意不通。而 A.posted 是“邮递 ”的意思,更不符合题意。用 took表示老人把死狗拿回家。答案:C12.解析:C 和 D 两项文中没有信息可以印证,故可排除。B 项亦可通过下一句的信息加以排除。答案:A13.解析:根据语境,一
24、个邻居碰巧来他家串门,就吃了一块儿肉,所以中毒了。答案:B14.解析:上下文贯通起来看,这里转折的意思是很明显的。答案:D15.解析:根据常识“肚子疼” 是最基本、最直接的反应。disaster 是“ 灾难”;disease 是“疾病”;而 regret 是“后悔,遗憾” ,都不如 stomachache 好。答案:C16.解析:通过整段的意思,我们很容易得出这位医生是很有“经验”的结论。答案:A17.解析:医生给病人看病通常都是要询问病人病情,这是常识。答案:D18.解析:根据宾补是不带 to 的不定式,可以排除其他选项。答案:C19.解析:从前面的 happily 我们即可推知治疗的结果是
25、乐观的。答案:D20.解析:该选项与其他几项是整体和局部的关系。蛇毒在老人全身的每处都存在,而并非只存在于某些特定的器官和组织,所以用 body 最合适。答案:BExercise for originality(探究创新题).Choose the right expressions to complete the passage.(从所给的词与词组中选出最佳选项填入下面的短文中,所给的词与词组有多余的选项。)A.were B.as a result of C.fell downD.that E.a number of F.out ofG.and H.lasted I.butJ.when K.t
26、o climb out L.instead ofLast Friday a storm tore through two villages in South Africa destroying fourteen homes.Seven others were so badly damaged 1 their owners had to leave them,and fifteen others had broken windows or torn roofs.One person was killed,several 2 badly injured and taken to hospital,
27、and 3 other people received minor injuries.Altogether over two hundred people were homeless 4 the storm.A farmer,Mr Smith,said that the storm began early in the morning and 5 for over an hour.“I was in the kitchen with my wife and children,” he said,“ 6 we heard a loud noise.A few minutes later our
28、house 7 on top of us.We managed 8 but then I saw that one of my children was missing.I went back inside and found him,safe 9 frightened.”Mrs Johnson said that her husband had just left for work when she noticed that her house was shaking.She rushed outside immediately with her children.“There was no
29、 time to take anything,” she said.“A few minutes later,the roof came down.”Soldiers helped to bring people 10 the flooded area and the local government provided food,clothes and shelter.答案:1.解析:此句是一个主从复合句,由 so.that.结构构成,that 引导的是结果状语从句。故空格处应填 that,即选项 D。答案:D2.解析:根据前面“One person was killed”一句可以看出,sev
30、eral 后应该填 were,构成被动语态句式 were badly injured,与前面构成并列句式。答案:A3.解析:明显可以看出需填入一个可以修饰 other people 的修饰语,只有选项 E 是填入此空格处的正确答案。答案:E4.解析:从前面各句所表达的内容看,这场风暴给南非的两个村庄造成了一场灾难,村民有死有伤,最后这句话说的是风暴造成的结果,有 200 多人无家可归。故选项 B 是正确答案。答案:B5.解析:仔细研读此句,可看出,and 后面需填入一个动词同前面的 began 并列。故填入lasted,描述风暴持续了一个多小时。答案:H6.解析:此句由于插入 he said
31、而变成前后两个句子,完整的句子应是:I was in the kitchen with my wife and children when we heard a loud noise.需填入 when,引导状语从句,表示动作的突然性。答案:L7.解析:从句子结构看,需填入一个动词作谓语。因主语是 house,不难得出结论,可填入fell down。答案:C8.解析:manage to do sth.是常见的结构,根据前面的句意,可看出 we 的房盖坍塌后试图所做的事,故 K 选项是正确答案。答案:K9.解析:可看出 safe 与 frightened 是并列成分,但从表达的意思看,fright
32、ened 表达的是转折关系,故应在空格处填入 but。答案:I10.解析:根据句意,得知士兵帮助人们脱离洪水泛滥的地区,明显看出 out of 为正确答案。答案:FLink to test(高考链接).Multiple choice.(选择填空。)1. Mary wrote an article on _ the team had failed to win the game.A.whyB.whatC.whoD.that 1.解析:空格后面是一个意思和结构都较完整的句子,而它又在介词 on 之后,并且从选项看是要选一个连接词把空格前后连接起来,可判断后面一句是一个介词后面的宾语从句。That
33、引导宾语从句没有意思,只是连接词的作用;what 和 who 引导宾语从句要担当从句中的主语或宾语,而此从句不缺少主语和宾语;why 引导宾语从句在从句中作原因状语。所以此题选 A。答案:A2. I was surprised by her words,which made me recognize _ silly mistakes I had made.A.whatB.thatC.howD.which2.解析:该句是一个较复杂的复合句。What silly mistakes I had made.是个宾语从句也可以看作是由感叹句 What silly mistakes I had made!
34、转化而来。因句中的中心词 mistakes 是可数名词的复数形式,所以连接词选了 what。请注意两种语言形式与本句的区别:What a silly mistake I have made!How silly a mistake I have made!答案:A3. It is generally considered unwise to give a child _ he or she wants.A.howeverB.whateverC.whicheverD.whenever3.解析:本句意思为:给小孩任何他想要的东西通常被认为是不明智的。give sb. sth.,其中 sth. 部分是
35、由一个从句充当,构成宾语从句,此从句中缺少宾语。A 项和 D 项不可以作宾语,C 常作定语,B 项 whatever 可以作它的宾语,表示“ 无论什么东西” ;疑问词加 ever 之后就表示“无论,不管”。答案:B4. The place the bridge is supposed to be built should be _ the cross-river traffic is the heaviest.A.which;whereB.at which;whichC.at which;whereD.which;in which 4.解析:根据句子意思是要表达“桥要被建造的地方应该是水上交通
36、最繁忙的地方”。the bridge is supposed to be built 显然是定语从句来修饰 The place,先行词 The place 放入定语从句中应该作地点状语,所以要用 at which。第二空格后应该是系动词 be 之后引导的一个表语从句,表示“在地方”,所以要用 where。答案:C5. Id like to arrive 20 minutes early _ I can have time for a cup of tea.A.as soon asB.as a resultC.in caseD.so that 5.解析:as soon as 一就; as a r
37、esult 结果,后面不接从句;in case 以免、以防; so that 以便,可以引导目的状语从句,从句中常含有情态动词 can、could 等。答案:D.Reading comprehension.(阅读理解。)AWalk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it is steamy,warm,damp and thick.But if you had been around 15 000 years ago,during the last ice age,would it have been the same?F
