15、，所以用一般现在时。故A选项正确。6.Linda couldnt have broken into the teachers office at midnight, for it was only nine oclock _she returned to the dormitory and had a sound sleep.A. beforeB. whenC. thatD. until【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查时间状语从句。句意：Linda不可能半夜闯进老师的办公室，因为她是在九点回到宿舍睡了个好觉。结合句意可知此处是when引导的时间状语从句，故选B。7.Have you paid?

20、ion to make a soft landing on the moons far side.A. markingB. to markC. having markedD. marked【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：周三，中国的嫦娥4号机器人探测器进入月球轨道，标志着它在月球远端软着陆任务中迈出了重要一步。逗号前是主句，逗号后是非限制性定语，修饰整个主句，结合句意，主句和mark之间是主动关系，故用现在分词作定语，A选项正确。【点睛】不定式和现在分词均可用结果状语，但两者用法有区别：现在分词用作结果状语，通常表示一种自然的结果，即属预料之中的事；不定式用作结果状语，主要表示

21、没有预料到的情况或结果，即属预料之外的事。12.Bella, who is always cheerful, creates a friendly work atmosphere in her office every day, _ her colleagues find pleasant and relaxing.A. whereB. whichC. whenD. that【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：贝拉总是很开朗，每天在她的办公室里营造友好的工作氛围，她的同事们觉得这样的氛围轻松愉快。句中先行词为atmosphere，在非限定性定语从句中作动词find的宾语，所以用关系代

22、词which引导。故选B。【点睛】分析定语从句关键抓住两点：第一、找准先行词；第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词，如本题中先行词为名词atmosphere，再分析先行词atmosphere在定语从句中所作的成分，将先行词atmosphere带到从句中作动词find的宾语，所以用关系代词which引导。13.We believe _ you have been devoted to _ naturally of great necessity.A. that; beingB. all that; beC. that all; areD. what; is【答案】D【解析

23、】【详解】考查名词性从句。句意：我们相信你所投入的当然是非常必要的。分析句子可知，believe后接宾语从句，宾语从句中you have been devoted to缺少宾语，表示事物故用what；what you have been devoted to为主语，从句作主语，谓语动词用单数，故D选项正确。14.- Difficulties always go with me!- Cheer up! If God closes door in front of you, there be a window opened for you.A. mustB. wouldC. couldD. can

24、【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查情态动词辨析。句意：困难总是伴随着我！高兴点! 如果上帝在你面前关上了门，一定有一扇窗户为你打开。A. must必须；B. would将要；C. could能，会；D. can能，会。must表示对现在的状态推测时，意为“一定”，表示可能性很大的推测。符合语境。故选A。【点睛】1) must用在肯定句中表示较有把握的推测，意为一定。2) must表对现在的状态或现在正发生的事情的推测时， must 后面通常接系动词be 的原形或行为动词的进行式。 3) must 表示对已发生的事情的推测时，must 要接完成式。4) must表示对过去某时正发生的事情的推测，mu

25、st 后面要接完成进行式。5) 否定推测用cant。本句中的。must表示对现在的状态推测时，意为一定，表示可能性很大的推测。符合第2点用法。15.Much to their delight, their new project _ at the conference, the excited scholars decided to have a barbecue to celebrate the fantastic moment.A. to approveB. being approvedC. having approvedD. having been approved【答案】D【解析】【详

26、解】考查独立主格结构。句意：令他们高兴的是，他们的新项目在会议上被批准了，兴奋的学者们决定举行一次烧烤来庆祝这个美妙的时刻。此处句子的主语是 the excited scholars；their new project是动词 approve 的逻辑主语，动词 approve 的动作先于谓语动词的动作decide发生，且与逻辑主语之间是被动关系，所以这里用现在分词完成式的被动式，并与逻辑主语构成现在分词的独立主格结构作时间状语。故选D。【点睛】现在分词独立主格结构的理解与用法一、现在分词独立主格结构的理解根据英语语法要求，如果一个现在分词用作状语，那么它的逻辑主语应该与句子主语体质一致，但有时句

27、子的语义需要现在分词的逻辑主语与句子主语不一致，此时我们就需要使用现在分词的独立主格结构。现在分词的独立主格结构由“名词或代词（采用主格形式）+现在分词”构成，其中采用主格形式的“名词或代词”就是其后现在分词的逻辑主语。如：He being absent, nothing couldnt be done. 由于他缺席，什么事也干不成。Ashton being dead, there was nothing to be done now. 阿希顿已经死了，现在没有什么办法可想了。Weather permitting, well have the match tomorrow. 天气允许的话，我们

28、将于明天进行比赛。She sat behind the table, her chin resting in her hands. 她坐在桌子后面，双手托着下巴。二、现在分词独立主格结构的正误分析请再看下面的正误句分析：误：Being ill, we had to send the boy to hospital.由于being ill前没有自带的逻辑主语，所以从理论上说，它的逻辑主语就应该是句子主语，这样一来此句的意思就是：（我们）生病了，所以我们只好送这男孩去医院。显然这样的句子不合情理。但是，如果改为下面这样的句子就没问题了：正：Being ill, the boy was sent t

29、o hospital. 由于生病了，这男孩被送到了医院。如果改为现在分词的独立主格结构，则可以这样改写：正：The boy being ill, we had to send him to hospital. 这男孩病了，所以我们送他去医院。句中的the boy being ill就是现在分词的独立主格结构，其中的the boy为现在分词being ill的逻辑主语。三、现在分词独立主格结构的用法1. 表时间The question being settled, we went home. 问题解决之后，我们就回家了。2. 表原因The day being fine, we decided t

30、o go swimming. 天气好，我们决定去游泳。The day being fine, they decided to go swimming. 由于天气很好，我们决定去游泳。Nobody having any more to say, the meeting was closed. 因为再没有人有话要说，会议就结束了。3. 表结果The cart overturned, the horse plunging and rearing in its traces. 马车翻倒，马往前一冲，套着挽绳的上半身直立起来。All this time, they were fast asleep, a

31、ll of them knowing nothing about what had happened. 那段时间，他们都很快就入睡了，没有人知道发生了什么事。The plane crashed, its bombs exploding at it hit the ground 飞机坠毁了，它携带的炸弹在它触地的同时爆炸了。4. 表条件Weather permitting, well have the match tomorrow. 天气允许的话，我们将于明天进行比赛。Im playing golf this afternoonweather permitting. 我今天下午打高尔夫球如果天气

32、允许的话。Other things being equal, I would buy the black dress not the white one. 其他方面若都相同，我将买那件黑的衣服，不买那件白的。5. 表伴随She ran up to me, her hair flying in the wind. 她向我跑来，秀发在风中飘扬着。We drove through red traffic lights, the horn blaring. 我们鸣着喇叭，闯过红灯。She sat behind the table, her chin resting in her hands. 她坐在桌

51、们能掌握。词汇复现包括原词复现、同义词复现、同根词复现、概括词复现以及结构复现等。完形填空所选的文章都是具有逻辑关系、意义相连的语篇，因此，在行文中不可避免地会出现词语的复现、前后同义或反义、相互照应等现象。所以，解题时应联系上下文寻找相关线索，如某一个词的原词、指代词、同义词、近义词、上义词、下义词和概括词等。但由于我们在做题时不可能总是重复地阅读文章，因此，在做完形填空时要培养一种捕捉并记忆相关信息的能力。本题中的41题中的once a week和weekly；42题中的lost和pass away；49题中的 collect money 和donate money；等都采用了这个方法，请

And I would like to tell you a few personal stories

104、.I grew up reading British and American childrens books. When I began to write, I wrote exactly the kinds of stories I was reading: All my characters were white and blue-eyed, they ate apples and talked a lot about the weather, despite the fact that I lived in Nigeria. We ate mangoes, and we never t

105、alked about the weather. Because all I had read were books in which characters were foreign, I had become convinced that books by their very nature had to have foreigners in them. Things changed when I discovered African books. Because of writers like Chinua Achebe and Camara Laye, I went through a

106、mental shift in my idea of literature. I realized that people like me, girls with skin the color of chocolate, could also exist in literature. I started to write about things I recognized. So what the discovery of African writers did for me was this: It saved me from having a single story of what bo

107、oks are. The year I turned eight, we got a new house boy Fide from a nearby rural village. The only thing my mother told us about him was that his family was very poor. And when I didnt finish my dinner, my mother would say, “Finish your food! Dont you know? People like Fides family have nothing.” S

108、o I felt enormous pity for Fides family. Then one Saturday, we went to his village to visit, and his mother showed us a beautifully patterned basket that his brother had made. I was astonished. It had not occurred to me that anybody in his family could actually make something. Their poverty was my s

109、ingle story of them.Years later, when I left Nigeria to go to university in the United States, my American roommate asked where I had learned to speak English so well, and was confused when I said that Nigeria happened to have English as its official language. What struck me was this: She had felt s

110、orry for me even before she saw me. My roommate had a single story of Africa: a single story of catastrophe.Of course, Africa is a continent full of catastrophes. But there are other stories that are not about catastrophe, and it is very important, it is just as important, to talk about them. The co

111、nsequence of the single story is this: It robs people of dignity. It makes our recognition of our equal humanity difficult. It emphasizes how we are different rather than how we are similar.So what if my mother had told us that Fides family was poor and hardworking? What if we had an African televis

112、ion network that broadcast diverse African stories all over the world? What if my roommate knew about my Nigerian publisher, Muhtar Bakare, a remarkable man who left his job in a bank to follow his dream and start a publishing house? What if my roommate knew about my friend Funmi Iyanda, a fearless

113、woman who hosts a TV show, and is determined to tell the stories that we prefer to forget?My Nigerian publisher and I have just started a non-profit called Farafina Trust, and we have big dreams of building libraries and providing books for state schools, and also of organizing lots of workshops in

114、reading and writing, for all the people who are eager to tell our many stories.Stories matter. Many stories matter.

119、ur equal humanityD. stress the importance of telling diverse, balanced stories55. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. The danger of the single storyB. The importance of telling storiesC. The single stories that matterD. Stories that can repair broken dignity【答案】50. B 51.

120、C 52. B 53. B 54. D 55. A【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章作者通过讲述几个个人的故事，通过故事告诫我们：如果我们只去聆听关于一个人、一个国家的单一故事，将会导致非常严重的误解。【50题详解】推理判断题。由本文第二段可知，作者实际上来自尼日利亚，经常吃芒果，不讨论天气，有着巧克力肤色。可知至少不是说英语的欧洲人。从本文第四段，作者的美国舍友对她能说一口流利英语表示疑惑可知，因此可以推断出人们对尼日利亚的人第一印象可能是认为他们不会说流利的英语。故选B。【51题详解】词义猜测题。由本文第二段倒数I realized that people like me, girls w

121、ith skin the color of chocolate, could also exist in literature.可知作者的思想转变是她意识到像她这样有着巧克力肤色的女生也是可以在文学作品中有一席之地的。即不仅仅外国人物才存在在文学作品中。故选C。【52题详解】细节理解题。本文第二段、第三段、第四段分别讲了作者自己意识到文学作品中人物不限英美，作者发现Fide一家贫穷却努力，作者的室友对尼日利亚的刻板印象。即一共三个她的个人经历。故选B。53题详解】推理判断题。通读全文可知，不论是作者、作者妈妈、作者的室友，不同的人们有着不同的single story，实际上可以理解为“一面之词

122、”“刻板印象”，但其实又不符合事实，即会给听众传达有偏见的想法，故选B。【54题详解】推理判断题。作者的一系列假设，其实是更好的做法。兼听则明偏信则暗。我们不应该听信一面之词，应该去多角度的均衡的了解。故选D。【55题详解】主旨大意题。全文讲述了作者、作者妈妈、作者室友的偏见，以及作者对此的看法。认为一面之词实际上是很不好的。在并没有亲自去观察探索也没有去多方面了解之前，人们就接受了single story。但其实往往并不符合事实。因此最好的标题是一面之词的危险。故选A。第II卷（共35分）第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分35分）第一节阅读表达 “Cleverness is a gift wh
