10、项。考点：考查冠词2. Finding information in todays world is easy.The_is how you can tell if the information you get is useful or not.A. knowledgeB. abilityC. competitionD. challenge【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：当今世界找信息很容易，但困难的事是你如何辨别你所获得的信息是否有用。A.知识；B.能力；C.竞赛；D.challenge挑战，艰巨任务。根据句意，获得信息是容易的，与easy相对，辨别那个信息有用是困难的。

11、challege符合语境，故选D。3. Some passengers were walking through the big halls at Paris Airport_the whole root fell down.A. whileB. whenC. as soon asD. after【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查状语从句。句意：一些乘客正经过巴黎戴高乐机场的其中一个大厅时，大厅的整个顶部全掉落了下来。本题考查be doing sth.when这个固定句式,此句式意思是：当正发生时，另外一件事发生了，与此句型意思一样且常出现的其他句型有be on the point of doin

12、g sth/be about to do sth.when.故选B。【名师点睛】When和While的区别when是at or during the time that，既指时间点，也可指一段时间，while是during the time that，只指一段时间，因此when引导的时间状语从句中的动词可以是终止性动词，也可以是延续性动词，而while从句中的动词必须是延续性动词。when说明从句的动作和主句的动作可以是同时，也可以是先后发生；while 则强调主句的动作在从句动作的发生的过程中或主从句两个动作同时发生。由when引导的时间状语从句，主句用过去进行时，从句应用一般过去时；如果从

13、句和主句的动作同时发生。两句都用过去进行时的时候，多用while引导，如：a. When the teacher came in, we were talking.当此句改变主从句的位置时，则为：While we were talking, the teacher came in.b. They were singing while we were dancing.when和while还可作并列连词。when表示“在那时”；while表示“而，却”，表对照关系。如：He is strong while his brother is weak.他长得很结实,而他弟弟却很瘦弱。4. Living

14、in the dormitory means_to take care of yourself,understand each others difference and share_ interests.A. to learn;commonB. learning;ordinaryC. to learn;ordinaryD. learning;common【答案】D【解析】试题分析：考察固定搭配及形容词词义辨析.固定搭配mean doing sth意味着做某事；mean to do sth打算做某事；形容词common共同的，普通的；ordinary常见的；句意：生活在宿舍里级意味着要照顾好自

15、己，理解其他人的差异以及分享共同的兴趣。故D正确。考点：考察固定搭配及形容词词义辨析点评：固定短语的考查是高考中的重点内容，在高中的学习近平时要多积累固定搭配的用法，考试时只能凭借记忆力来答题，尤其是单项选择很难推出某个搭配的意思，所以平时的积累记忆是尤其重要的。学生可以将常考的全部积累在一起，通过反复的复习，从而达到永久的记忆下来。5. He doesnt spend any more money on clothing than I do,but_he manages to look so stylish.A. thereforeB. somehowC. furthermoreD. oth

16、erwise【答案】B【解析】这题考查词义辨析：therefore因此，somehow不知怎么的，furthermore还有，otherwisei否则，句意是：他不比我在衣服上花的钱多，但是不知怎么的，他能看起来这么时尚。选B。6. I lost a book_I cant remember now.A. whose titleB. its titleC. the title of itD. the title of that【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：我丢失了现在我不能记起书名的一本书。_I cant remember now.是定语从句，前面的a book是先行词

17、，与title是所属关系，修饰title作定语，用关系代词whose，从句部分还原是：I cant remember its(用whose代替) title now. 故选A。【点睛】7. Although the working mother is very busy,she still_a lot of time to her children.A. devotesB. spendsC. suppliesD. provides【答案】A【解析】考查动词。句意，尽管工作的母亲很繁忙，但是她仍然把大量的时间奉献给了她的孩子们。devoteto是固定用法，意思是把奉献。故选A。【名师点睛】重视固

18、定搭配。任何一种语言都有大量的固定搭配词组，英语也不例外。那些约定俗成的词组，不可随便更改，否则就会不伦不类，令人费解。因此我们必须对其高度重视，认真对待。实质上，这类题属于记忆性的考查，因为固定的搭配必定产生固定的意思，一旦记住了它的搭配和意思，解题就不会困难。在平时的学习中，对于固定用法的积累是非常必要的，在考试中遇到类似题目，拿过来直接用就可以。多阅读文章，从中学习有用的固定用法。8. Last year the number of students who graduated with a driving license reached 200,000,a(n)_of 40,000 p

19、er year.A. averageB. numberC. amountD. quantity【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：去年毕业时有驾照的学生数量已达到20万，平均每年4万。A. average平均；B. number 数字；C. amount数量； D. quantity 数量。an average of平均，平均数；a number of许多，大量，修饰可数名词；an amount of许多，大量，修饰不可数名词；a quantity of许多，大量，修饰可数名词和不可数名词。 根据40,000 per year.可知，平均每年4万。故选A项。9. I want t

20、o use the same tools_used in your factory a few days ago.A. as wasB. which wereC. as wereD. which【答案】C【解析】考查as引导的定语从句。as引导定语从句时通常构成suchas或the sameas固定搭配，其中such和same修饰其后的名词，as为关系代词，指代其前的名词引导定语从句。as在从句中可以作主语、表语或宾语。本题中as作从句的主语。故选C。10. Her parents require that she _ her homework before she _ TV.A. will

21、finish; watchesB. finishes; watchesC. finish; watchesD. finishes; will watch【答案】C【解析】考查后的宾语从句和时间状语从句。后的宾语从句用动词原形，其中可以省略，第一空填；在宾语从句中，含有before引导的时间状语从句，主句是动词原形，则从句用一般现在时态，she是单数第三人称，故第二空填watches。由此可知答案为。11. A good friend is a person_we tum for help when we are in trouble.A. whoB. whomC. to whomD. to w

22、hich【答案】C【解析】试题分析：考查定语从句。句义：朋友是你处于困境时可以求救的的人。把握关键词turn，构成短语：turn to sb,向某人求救，所以用介词to ,因为先行词是a person,是人所以用whom，所以C正确。考点：考查定语从句12. How can you take my umbrella away without my permission?Oh, sorry, I _ it was yours. I hope you _.A. didnt know; dont mindB. dont know; not to mindC. know; not to careD.

23、havent known; didnt mind【答案】A【解析】考查动词时态。上句：未经许可你怎么能把我的雨伞拿走？下句：对不起，我不知道。我希望你不要介意。根据句意可知第一空应该指的是过去，用一般过去时态；第二空指的是现在，用一般现在时态。故选。13. The way _he looks at problems is wrong.A. whichB. whoseC. whatD. /【答案】D【解析】考查定语从句。在way、distance、direction等词后的定语从句中，常用that来代替“in (或其他介词)+which”、when或where，而that常可省略。故选。14.

24、It was careless of you to put your new bike downstairs all night.My God!_.A. So I didB. So it wasC. So did ID. So have I【答案】A【解析】考查固定用法。你真是太粗心了,把你的新自行车整夜放在楼下。天啊,真是这样的。 so+主语+be 动词/助动词/情态动词 用于表示对别人所说的情况加以肯定,它的主语与上文主语相同。故选。【名师点睛】so+be动词/情态动词/助动词+主语和so+主语+be动词/情态动词/助动词 .so+be动词/情态动词/助动词+主语是倒装句,表示“.也一样”

25、.比如：He is a student.So am I.She can speak English.So can her brother.so+主语+be动词/情态动词/助动词是用来表示赞同的,意为“确实,的确”,比如：-Its a fine day today.-So it is.-今天天气很好.-确实.15. John and Mary, _ sure to come to our party this evening, _?OK, thank you, _.A. be; will you; we willB. are; will they; we willC. are; arent th

26、ey; we mustD. will be; wont they; we shall【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查祈使句和反意疑问句。句意：约翰和玛丽，今晚一定要来参加我们的聚会，好吗？好的，谢谢，我们会的。本题的John and Mary属呼语，用逗号隔开，后面是一个祈使句，第一空用动词原形，祈使句的反意疑问句应该是will you；第三空是答案，根据语境，表达“我们会的”。故选。16.

27、 before.A. thatB. whichC. whenD. where【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：世界经济正在发生巨大变化，在这变化中各国相互依赖发展比以往任何时候都多。此处changes是先行词，在后面的定语从句中相当于地点状语，故选。17. Is this research center_you visited the modem equipment last year?A. whereB. thatC. the one thatD. the one where【答案】D【解析】考查定语从句。把这个句子用两个陈述句写出来就是The research center i

28、s the one.(one 代替前面的research center） You visited the modern equipment in the research center last year. 这里visited是及物动词，modern equipment 是这个句子的宾语。 两句变成一句，就用关系词连接起来。所以就变成了 The research center is the one in which （代替the research center) you visited the modern equipment last year. 其中in which 又等于where ；如

29、果变成This is research center, 那么research center前缺少冠词。 这句话的意思是，这是你们去年参观过的那个有现代设备的研究中心吗？故选。18. I didnt become a serious climber until the fifth grade, _ I went up to rescue a kite that was stuck in the branches of a tree.A. whenB. whereC. whichD. why【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：一直到五年级我才成为一名认真的攀爬者，那个时候我为了拿回挂在树

30、梢上的风筝而爬上了树。the fifth grade先行词，定语从句缺少时间状语，故用when来引导，故选A项。19. He stayed there for quite a long time, during _ time he learned much spoken English.A. thatB. thisC. whichD. the same【答案】C【解析】考查定语从句。因前后均的句子，必须要选连词，排除B和D；又因在介词后不能用that来引导定语从句，所以选C。during which time在那段时间里。故选。20. Shall we watch the movie Fant

31、astic Beasts and Where to Find Them this weekend?_.Isnt it meaningful that we do some voluntary work in the nursing house?A. Take careB. Forget itC. Dont mention itD.

32、周末我们将看Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them这部电影吗？下句：算了吧，难道到疗养院做些志愿者的工作不是更有意义吗？所以选B。第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didnt like attention drawn to myself.

The best speeches often take on a combination of all three of these components（组成部分）. However, b

91、efore you can go about the writing of a great speech, it is important to set goals. Goals keep you, your speech and your audience focused. What a goal is In the context of a speech, a goal is the purpose of the speech, and what it hopes to accomplish. For example, the goal of a eulogy(颂歌) might be t

92、o celebrate the life of a loved one. The goal of a speech at a political gathering would be to inform the crowd about the political position of a candidate and persuade them to vote and campaign for the candidate in question. Why a goal is important Without a goal, a speech is without direction. The

93、 goal informs the structure and content of the speech. For example, if a speechs goal is to convince people that smoking is bad for them, the speech will be structured with persuasive arguments to back up the goal. A speech with a goal of informing the audience will keep the information fair and fac

94、tual. A goal is incredibly important to the speechs ability to connect with an audience. If the speaker is unaware of the goal of the speech, the audience will likely be unaware as well. This severely reduces the effectiveness of the message. Apart from informing the audience of the content and stru

95、cture, a speechs goal drives the speaker to greater heights. If a speaker is asked to speak on a specific subject, but never establishes the goal, they wont know where to start in the research, organizing and writing of the speech. _ If you have been charged with delivering a speech, establishing a

96、goal can seem difficult at first. There are several things to take into consideration. First, think about who you will be speaking to. The demographic(人口统计) of your audience will likely determine whether you will be able to persuade them, or whether they will be able to sit through（一直坐到结束）. Second,

97、think about the topic itself. If the topic is something controversial（有争议的）, it may worth your while to consider an informative approach to present both sides of the issue. Finally, consider your resources. A speech with an informative or persuasive goal usually requires a great deal of research, an

98、d sometimes takes more time to write.52. According to the passage, what three components does the best speech combine?A. Informing, delivering and entertaining.B. Informing, persuading and entertaining.C. Informing, writing and delivering.D. Informing, writing and persuading.53. The goal of a speech

99、 at a political gathering might be _.A. to persuade the audience to vote for a candidateB. to celebrate the life of a person you admireC. to entertain the audience with humor and magicD. to persuade the audience to buy new products54. All the following indicate the importance of a speech goal EXCEPT

100、 that _.A. a speech will lose its direction without a goalB. a speech goal can help keep the audience aware of the speechC. a speech goal can help the speaker know about the research, organizing and writingD. a speech goal makes it possible for the speaker to achieve whatever he wants in life55.
