I _ you.A. wont tell B. didnt tellC. havent told D. hadnt told【答案】B【解析】试题分析：这是一组对话。上文，我希望你喜欢昨晚的电影。下文，你究竟是怎样知道我去看电影了？我没有告诉你。表示发生在过去的事情，故用一般过去时。考点：时态考查题点评：通过时间状语，上下句意思和具体

4、语境来确定时态。3. Clothing made of man-made fibers has certain advantages over _ made of natural fibers like cotton, wool or silk.A. this B. oneC. that D. what【答案】C【解析】考查代词：句意：人造纤维的衣服比天然纤维，比如：棉花，羊毛或丝绸制作的衣服有一定的好处。这里填的代词是泛指不可数名词Clothing，用that是特指可数名词单数或不可数名词，而且后面还有后置定语，one是泛指前面的可数名词单数，the ones特指前面的可数名词复数，what

5、可以引导名词性从句， 故选C。点睛：代词首先要弄清它指代的是什么，指代的数量，指代可数名词单数还是不可数名词，泛指还是特指，结合句意和代词本身的用法，再进行辨析4.

6、的优先权； participation表示参与，参加； privilege特权。 句意：由城市年轻一代所写的诗歌，趋向于揭露他们由于缺乏归属感而引起的焦虑。 urban “城市” The urban youth表示城市年轻一代。 lack of缺乏。故选A。5.

7、 out 分发，精疲力竭。句意：我仍然在做这个项目。啊！你肯定不能如期完成了。因为快没时间了。故选C。6. _ my teachers help, I wouldnt have made such great progress.A. Thanks to B. But forC. In terms of D. With regard to【答案】B【解析】考查短语辨析，thanks to由于，幸亏；but for要不是，如果没有；in terms of依据，按照；with regard to关于，至于。句意：如果没有我的老师的帮助，我就不会取得如此大的进步。故选B。7. We havent se

8、ttled the question of _it is necessary for him to study abroad.A. if B. whereC. whether D. that【答案】C【解析】考查宾语从句：句意：我们还没解决是否他有必要出国学习的问题。介词of后面接的是宾语从句，从意思看，应该选whether。故选C。 点睛：宾语从句的一个考点就是选用适当的连接词，一是从句子结构成分分析，缺主宾表用what，不缺用that或疑问词，二是看意思，这句话就是需要whether。8. Now children like to go to the fast food restauran

9、t,_, as the name says,eating doesnt take much time .A. which B. thatC. what D. where【答案】A【解析】试题分析：考查定语从句。先行词为restaurant, 在从句中作地点状语，因此用where, 相当于in which。句中as the name says 是一个插入语。句意：现在年轻人喜欢去快餐店，就像名字表明的，在那里吃东西不用花太多时间。选D。考点：考查定语从句点评：定语从句的考查要从句子成分的分析开始，如果句子很完整就使用关系副词；如果句子中缺少主语，宾语，表语或者定语的时候，使用关系代词.这道题要注

10、意 as the name says是插入语，应该先去掉不看，结构就清晰了。9. When asked to move away，the other three_ but Rosa was unwilling to do so.A. adopted B. confirmedC. Advocated D. .submitted【答案】A 10. Could i leave a message for him?_ Ill get a pen and a piece of paper.A. Thank you. B. Go ahead.C. Who is it? D. Hold on,please.

11、【答案】D11. A 9.0 magnitude earthquake rocked the northeast coast of Honshu Japan, _ building in the capital Tokyo and as far as Osaka.A. shook B. shakingC. having shaken D. shaken.【答案】B【解析】考查非谓语动词，句意：日本本州东北海岸发生了9级地震，首都东京和大阪都有震感。动词ing形式做伴随状语，故选B。点睛：非谓语动词作状语，其逻辑主语必须和句子主语保持一致，和句子主语构成主谓关系时用-ing形式，构成动宾关系是用

12、-ed形式。其逻辑主语和句子主语不一致时，要在非谓语动词前加逻辑主语，构成独立主格结构12. Im not surprised that he became a writer. Even as a child he had a _ imagination.A. clear B. cautiousC. funny D. vivid【答案】D【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。此处句意为“甚至当他很小时，他都有丰富的想象力。”clear 清晰；cautions细心，谨慎；funny滑稽；vivid 生动，鲜明，丰富；吻合语境，选D。13.

13、nd a unique culture _ Lugu Lake impresses people from all over the world?A. where B. whichC. that D. why【答案】C【解析】考查强调句型，句意：泸沽湖是以它迷人的景色和独特的文化深深打动了来自世界各地的游客吗？本句为一般疑问句的强调句型形式，判断强调句的办法是把“it is.that/who”去掉后，句子结构仍然完整。故选C。点睛：强调句是一种修辞，是人们为了表达自己的意愿或情感而使用的一种形式。通过各种方式对句子中的某个部分进行强调，从而起到修辞的作用。英语常用的强调结构有：It is (w

14、as)+被强调部分(主语、宾语或状语)+that/who.；whatbe句型。14. _he once felt like giving up,he now has the determination to push further and keep on going.A. Where B. AsC. In case D. Now that【答案】A【解析】试题分析：句意：曾经让他感到想放弃的地方，现在他决心继续前进。A那里；B尽管，当，因为，随着；C以防；D既然。where表示地点，引导让步状语从句；as引导让步状语从句常用倒装，即tried as he has；in case表目的；now

15、 that表原因。这里指让他感到想放弃的地方，故选A。考点：考查状语从句【名师点睛】这里考查状语从句的连接词，做状语从句类的题目，需要理解句意，然后判断前后分句的逻辑关系，进而选出相应的连接词。where在此引导地点状语从句，类似的句子有：Where there is a will, there is a way.有志者事竟成。15. Im worried about the sports meet. Do you think it will be postponed?If it _ rain tomorrow, but actually the weather forecast has re

16、moved our worry.A. could B. wouldC. might D. Should【答案】D【解析】试题分析：考查虚拟语气。从第二句后半句可知，明天不会下雨，因此判断为虚拟语气，而对将来的虚拟应用should + do，故选D。句意，我很担心明天的运动会，你觉得会被推迟吗？如果明天下雨的话会，但事实上天气预报已经排除了这一担忧。考点：考查定虚拟语气第二节：完型填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16-35各题给出的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。My memories of my father are slim becaus

But many of us have probably experienced just how simple it can be to catch some sleep in a gently rocking hammock(吊床). By examining brain waves in sleeping adults, researchers rep

60、orted in the June 21 issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, that they now have evidence to explain why that is.“It is a common belief that rocking causes sleep: we fall asleep in a rocking chair soon and, since ancient times, we cradle our babies to sleep,” said Sophie Schwartz of the U

61、niversity of Geneva. “Yet, how this works had remained a mystery. The goal of our study was made up of two parts: to test whether rocking does indeed improve sleep, and to understand how this might work at the brain level.”Schwartz, Michel Mhlethaler, and their colleagues Laurence Bayer and Irina Co

62、nstantinescu asked twelve adult volunteers to nap on a custom-made bed or “experimental hammock” that could either remain still or rock gently. All participants were good sleepers who didnt typically nap and did not suffer from excessive sleepiness during the day. Each participant took two 45-minute

63、 afternoon naps, one with the bed still and one with the bed in motion, while their brain activity was monitored.“We observed a faster transition to sleep in each and every subject in the swinging condition,” Mhlethaler said. “Surprisingly, we also observed a dramatic boosting of certain types of sl

64、eep-related brain waves.”More specifically, rocking increased the length of stage N2 sleep, a form of non-rapid eye movement sleep that normally occupies about half of a good nights sleep. The rocking bed also had a lasting effect on brain activity, increasing slow brain waves and bursts of activity

65、 known as sleep spindles(纺锤体).Schwartz and Mhlethaler say the next step is to find out whether rocking can improve longer periods of sleep and to find out whether it may be useful for the treatment of sleep disorders, such as insomnia(失眠).46. What does the June 21 issue of Current Biology tell us ac

Participants had a tendency to sleep excessively in the swinging bed.49. What do Schwartz and Mhlethaler expect to figure out in the next research?

A suitable title for this passage would probably be _.A. Take a snooze. Easier said than done.B. Want a faster sleep?Change your sl
