(to) search for 6. satisfied with 7. care for 8. struggling for 9. equipped for 10. hungered for(二)能力提升自测I.单项填空1. C. 考查动词词义辨析。句意:有时候,自然界的平衡被打乱了,导致了无法预料的后果。trouble“麻烦,添麻烦” ;confuse“使困惑” ;puzzle“使迷惑” ;disturb“打乱,扰
40、乱” 。2. A. 考查非谓语动词。equip 和 they 之间是被动关系,所以用 well equipped 过去分词作状语。3. A. 考查 satisfy 同根词的短语搭配。 in/with satisfaction “满意地”; be satisfied with “对满意” 。4. A. 考查短语介词。句意:多亏你的帮助,我才在期末英语考试中获得第一名。Thanks to 多亏,由于; without 没有; as to 关于; but for 没有;要不是。5. B. 考查“would rather从句”的用法。从句中的谓语动词若表示同现在/将来事实相反,则应用一般过去时。 “我
41、宁愿你不要熬夜”同现在事实相反。6. C. 考查动词短语搭配。get rid of “摆脱;除去” ;ridof “使摆脱”7. C.考查倍数表达法。倍数表达法:倍数+ as 形容词/副词的原级+ as; 倍数+比较级+ than;倍数+the size(length/height/depth/width/area) of。所以选 C,还可以使用 three times as cheap as。8. D. 考查名词的性质。第一个空 grain 用作量词是可数名词;第二个空用作物质名词是不可数。9. B. 考查 it 做形式宾语。make it impossible for sb to do s
42、th. it 是形式宾语;impossible 是宾补;不定式复合结构是真正的宾语。10. A. 考查副词辨析。句意:我们仍旧有许多问题要讨论,因此,在下次会议上,我们要再探讨这个项目。therefore“因此,所以” ;however“然而,可是” ;otherwise“否则,要不然” ;briefly“暂时地,简要地” 。 11. A. 考查动词的固定搭配。句意:孩子们在进餐时说话声音如此之大,以至于我不得不尽力提高嗓门好让别人听见我的话。struggle to do sth.“努力做某事” ,因句中 I 与hear 之间是被动关系,故用不定式的被动形式。12. A. 考查动词辨析。exp
43、and 不仅指尺寸、数量的增加,还可指范围和体积的扩大。stretch 一般指由曲变直、由短变长的伸展;extend 指空间范围的扩大或长宽的向外延伸,也可指时间的延长;spread 一般指向四面八方扩大或传播。13. C. 考查 would rather 的固定用法。would rather do than do sth宁愿而不。14. B. 考查名词性从句引导词的用法。what 引导宾语从句并在从句中作宾语。15. C. 考查固定用法。the first/ last/ best/ only/ very/ right. + n. + to do sth.表示“第一个/最后一个/最好的一个/唯
44、一的/恰好的/合适的做某事的人/物” 。II. 完成句子1. with the hope of 2. the first to arrive 3. make it a rule 4. twice as many as last year 5. struggling for(三)智能拓展训练I. 完形填空1. D.
