第一部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分55分)
第一节单项选择(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
1. Writing out all the invitations by hand was more time-consuming than we______.
A. will expect B. are expecting C. expect D. had expected
【考点】考察时态
【答案】D
【解析】本题考察的时态。句义:手工写下所有的邀请函要比我们预料的花去更多的时间。根据句义可知我们预料是在实际上写之前发生的,而本句中实际写花去的时间使用了过去时was,所以expect使用过去完成时。故D正确。
【试题延伸】时态题的考察要特别注意动词发生的先后顺序,尤其是现在完成时或者过去完成时,这一点特别明显。
【举一反三】-----We didn’t find Smith attending the lecture.
------No one __________ him about __________ a lecture the following day.
A. told; there to be B. had told; there to be
C. told; there was D. had told; there being
【答案】D
【解析】考查时态和非谓语。根据前面一句可知told动作发生在didn’t find之前,故用过去完成时;而about是个介词,故后面应用there being .
2. I don’t really like the author,_______ I have to admit his books are very exciting.
A. although B. unless C. until D. once
【考点】考察状语从句连词辨析
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的是状语从句的连词表示。Although尽管;unless除非,如果…不…;until直到…才…;once一旦;句义:尽管我承认这本书很精彩,但是我并不喜欢这本书的作者。根据句义可知上下文之间存在这转折关系,四个选项中只有A项表示上下文的转折。故A正确。
【试题延伸】此题主要考查连词的辨析,选择连词主要是看前后句的关系,因果关系用表因果的连词,转折关系用转折连词,并列关系用并列连词,要求考生具有一定的句子分析能力和词义辨析能力。
【举一反三】I don't believe we've met before, I must say you do look familiar.
A. therefore B. although
C. since D. unless
【答案】B
【解析】句意:尽管我一定说你确实看起来熟悉,但我相信我们以前没见过面。根据句意只有although符合题意。
3. —This apple pie is too sweet, don’t you think so?
—_____. I think it’s just right, actually.
A. Not really B. I hope so C. Sounds good D .No wonder
【考点】考察交际英语
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的是交际英语。A不完全是;不见得;B我希望如此;C听起来不错;D难怪;句义:—这个苹果馅饼太甜了,难道你不这样认为?—不是的,我认为实际上刚刚好。根据句义说明后者与前者的意见并不一致。故A正确。
【举一反三】— Do you enjoy your present job?
— _______. I just do it for a living.
A Of course B Not really C Not likely D Not a little
〖答案〗B
〖考点〗本题考查交际用语。
〖解析〗of course 当然not really 委婉说不not likely 不可能not a little 非常前句问你喜欢现在的工作吗?从后一句答语我们知道, 他仅仅是为了谋生。所以前一句答语应该是否定的, 而且答语口气并不强烈, 所以要用委婉的语气, 答案:B
4. Susan made______ clear to me that she wished to make a new life for herself.
A. that B. this C. it D. her
【考点】考察it用法
【答案】C
【解析】本题考察的是it用法中,it作为形式宾语的用法。本句中的it是一个形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的宾语从句that she wished to make a new life for herself.句义:Susan向我说清楚了她希望有自己的新生活。英语中能够作为形式宾语的只有it。故C正确。
【试题延伸】it做形式宾语,通常和下列动词连用:consider, think, make, find, believe, feel, guess...。一般说来,当不定式、动名词、从句等用作宾语且其后跟有宾语补足语时,就应在宾语补足语前使用形式宾语,而将真正的宾语移至句末。
【举一反三】We shouldn't take _____ for granted that we still have a lot of time before the Entrance Examination
A. this B. that C. it D. such
【答案】C
【解析】
试题分析:考查it做形式宾语:句意:我们不应该理所当然的认为我们离高考还有很长的时间。It是形式宾语,that引导的是真正的宾语从句,选C。
考点:考查it做形式宾语
5. They made up their mind that they______ a new house once Larry changed jobs.
A. bought B. would buy C. have bought D. had bought
【考点】考察时态
【答案】B
【解析】本题考察的是时态。句义:他们决定,一旦larry 换了工作,他们就买一个新房子。本句中的would表示的是过去将来时。他们是在过去决定一个将要发生的事情,所以使用过去将来时。故B正确。
6. There is a note pinned to the door______ when the shop will open again.
A. saying B. says C. said D. having said
【考点】考察非谓语动词
【答案】A
【解析】本句考察的是非谓语动词中的分词做定语的用法。本句中的名词note与动词say之间构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词短语作定语。D项是现在分词的完成式,表示已经完成的动作,这在上下文中没有体现。句义:有一个纸条被钉在门上,写着:商店什么时候再开门。本句中的saying相当于定语从句which says…。故A正确。
【试题延伸】当分词做定语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与名词构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做定语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做定语。单独的一个分词做定语要放在名词的前面,分词短语做定语要放在分词的后面。
【举一反三】Mark lives in a big pleasant room ______ approximately 5 meters by 6 meters.
A. measures B. measuring C. to be measured D. having measured
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:本句中的动词measure可以作为及物动词vt.测量;估量;也可以表示:距离(或长度、宽度、数量等)为…;本句中的measure表示的就是第2层含有距离(或长度、宽度、数量等)为….;动词measure与前面的名词room构成逻辑上的主动关系,故使用现在分词measuring approximately 5 meters by 6 meter来修饰前面的名词room。句义:Mark生活在一个面积大约为5米乘6米的很大的舒服的房子里。故B正确。
考点:考察分词做定语
7. It is difficult for us to imagine_____ life was like for slaves in the ancient world.
A. where B. what C. which D. why
【考点】考察名词性从句
【答案】B
【解析】本题考察的是名词性从句。动词imagine后面含有一个宾语从句what life was like for slaves in the ancient world。What引导起这个宾语从句,并在宾语从句中作为介词like的宾语。句义:对我们来说很难想象古代的奴隶的生活。Where和why不能在句中做宾语,which一直都表示疑问的意思“哪一个”。故B正确。
【试题延伸】名词性从句解题时要通过判断引导词在从句中所作的成分,来选择正确的引导词。连接同位语从句的从属连词主要有that, if, whether,和疑问词(what how where when ...)。that引导表示陈述句的同位语从句,if和whether,whether...or not引导表示“是否”的一般疑问句的同位语从句。连接代词主要有who,whom,whose,what,whoever,whomever,whosever,whatever,whichever等。连接代词一般指疑问,但what, whatever除了指疑问外,也可以指陈述。连接副词主要有when, where, why, how, whenever, wherever, however等.
【举一反三】The shocking news mad me realize ________ terrible problems we would face.
A. what B. how C. that D. why
【答案】A
【考点】考查名词性从句中的宾语从句。
【解析】由句中的IS可知其前面是由what引导的主语从句,且what在从句中作offer的宾语,故答案为A项。
8. —Is Anne coming tomorrow?
—_____.If she were to come, she would have called me.
A. Go ahead B. Certainly C. That’s right D. I don’t think so
【考点】考察交际英语
【答案】D
【解析】本句考察的交际英语。A去做吧!B当然了;C那是对的;D我不这么认为。句义:—Ann是明天来吗?—我不怎么认为,如果她要来这里,她之前就要打电话给我的。根据句义可知后者对于前者的看法是否定的。故D正确。另外请注意If she were to come, she would have called me.是一个错综条件句,if从句表示与将来相反,后面的主句表示与过去相反。
【举一反三】—May I open the window to let in some fresh air?
—___________
A. Come on B. Take care C. Go ahead! D. Hold on![中~#国教育出&版^网%]
〖答案〗C
〖考点〗本题考查交际用语。
〖解析〗根据语境可以知道:去开吧, 去做吧。所以答案为:C。容易误选A。come on 的意思是“算了吧!加油!”
9. It’s standard practice for a company like this one______ a security officer.
A. employed B. being employed C. to employ D. employs
【考点】考察非谓语动词用法
【答案】C
【解析】本题考察的是不定式的复合结构的用法。不定式的复合结构为:for sb to do sth;说明不定式动作的发出者。如:It is difficult for you to solve the problem.句义:对于像这样的公司雇佣保安是非常标准的做法。故C正确。
10. A company ______profits from home markets are declining may seek opportunities abroad.
A. which B. whose C. who D. why
【考点】考察定语从句
【答案】B
【解析】本题定语从句的先行词是A company,后面的定语从句中名词profits前面缺少定语修饰,所以使用关系代词whose引导起这个定语从句,并在句中做定语。ACD三项通常都不能在定语从句中做定语的。Whose profits相当于the profits of which。句义:一个利润主要来自国内的公司也许可以开拓国际市场。故B正确。
【试题延伸】定语从句的关系代词中要特别关注:Whose是关系词中唯一的一个可以放在名词前面做定语的关系代词,如果缺少定语,用whose引导定语从句,或是of which the+名词/the+名词+of which。
【举一反三】The prize will go to the writer ________ story shows the most imagination.
A. that B. which C. whose D. what
【答案】C
【考点】考查定语从句。
【解析】本题主句中的先行词writer和从句中的主语story有所属关系,译为作者的故事,因此选C。句子的意思是:我们的奖金会留给故事情节最富有想象力的作者。

【翻译】几个星期过去了,这个家伙和他的妻子又一次走了进来。
【分析】本句中有一个全部倒装句in walked this guy and his wife again.句首的in是副词,后面的主语是名词this guy and his wife,所以需要使用全部倒装句。如果副词放在句首,主语是代词的时候,则不需要全部倒装。如Here comes the bus.

One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day. [ww^w.#&zzstep*.@com]
Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers(传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.
Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.
“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.
The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”
Peter drove to Ann’s house to pick up his dog, and saw Thomas and Jack crying in the window. After a few moments Peter said, “Maybe Odie was supposed to find you, maybe you should keep it.”
41. What did Tracy do after finding the dog?
A. She looked for its owner B. She gave it to Ann as a gift. [w%ww^.zzste&p.*co#m]

42. How did the dog help save Jack?
A. By breaking the door for Ann. B. By leading Ann to Jack’s room.
C. By dragging Jack out of the room. D. By attending Jack when Ann was out.
43. What was Ann’s attitude to the dog according to Paragraph 4?
A. Sympathetic B. Doubtful C. Tolerant D. Grateful
44. For what purpose did Peter call Tracy?
A. To help her friend’s son. B. To interview Tracy
C. To take back his dog. D. To return the flier to her.
45. What can we infer about the dog from the last paragraph?
A. It would be given to Odie. B. It would be kept by Ann’ family.
C. It would be returned to Peter. D. It would be taken away by Tracy.

【分析】本句中found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school是一个“动词+宾语+宾语补足语”的结构,其中的宾语补足语wandering around the local elementary school是对宾语a lost dog的情况进行的说明,因为动词wander与a lost dog之间构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词短语。
2. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog.
【翻译】同时,Ann还去了商店买了狗粮,警告两个儿子不要喜欢上这只狗。
【分析】本句中谓语动词是由并列结构went to the dollar store 和bought some pet supplies组成的,现在分词短语warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog在句中充当伴随状语,因为warn与Ann构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词的形式。

It was one of those terribly hot days in Baltimore. Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside. But it was also scorching in our apartment. This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years. So my brother and I decided to leave the apartment to find someplace indoors. He suggested we could see a movie. It was a brilliant plan.
Movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit all day and—most important —sit in air conditioning. In those days, you could buy one ticket and sit through two movies. Then, the theater would show the same two movies again. If you wanted to, you could sit through them twice. Most people did not do that, but the manager at our theater. Mr. Bellow did not mind if you did.
That particular day, my brother and I sat through both movies twice, trying to escape the heat. We bought three bags of popcorn and three sodas each. Then, we sat and watched The Music Man followed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. We’d already seen the second movie once before. It had been at the theater since January, because Mr. Bellow loved anything with John Wayne init.
We left the theater around 8, just before the evening shows began. But we returned the next day and saw the same two movies again, twice more. And we did it the next day too. Finally, on the fourth day, the heat wave broke.
Still, to this day I can sing half the songs in The Music Man and recite half of John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart’s dialogue from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance! Those memories are some of the few I have of the heat wave of 1962. They’re really memories of the screen, not memories of my life.
46.In which year did the author first live in a place with an air conditioner?
A. 1952 B. 1962 C. 1972 D. 1982
47.What does the underlined word”It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The heat B. The theater.
C. The Music Man D. The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
48.What do we know about Mr. Bellow?
A. He loved children very much. B. He was a fan of John Wayne.
C. He sold air conditioners. D. He was a movie star.
49.Why did the author and his/her brother see the same movies several times?
A. The two movies were really wonderful.
B. They wanted to avoid the heat outside.
C. The manager of the theater was friendly.
D. They liked the popcorn and the soda at the theater.
50.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The author turned out to be a great singer.
B. The author enjoyed the heat wave of 1962.
C. The author’s life has been changed by the two movies.
D. The author considers the experience at the theater unforgettable.

Elizabeth Freeman was born about 1742 to African American parents who were slaves. At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.”
For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashley’s wife tried to strike Mumbet’s sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued(起诉) for her freedom.
While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom---- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution.
Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights.

How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone.
The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.
The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don’t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you’re brushing long enough. “It’s kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,” says Thomas Serval, the French inventor.
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,” Several says.
Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,” but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.
The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, developing on features. The U.S. is the first target market.
Serval says that one day, it’ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
56. Which is one of the feature of the Kolibree toothbrush?
A. It can sense how users brush their teeth.
B. It can track users’ school performance.
C. It can detect users’ fear of seeing a dentist.
D. It can help users find their phones.
57. What can we learn from Serval’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist.
B. You should see your dentist on a day-to –day basis.
C. You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist.
D. You’d like a dentist to watch you brush your teeth every day.
58. Which of the following might make the Kolibree toothbrush fun?
A. It can be used to update mobile phones.
B. It can be used to play mobile phone games
C. It can send messages to other users
D. It can talk to its developers.
59. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How Serval found out his kids lied to him.
B. Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary.
C. How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth.
D. What inspired Serval to invent the toothbrush
60. What can we infer about Serval’s children?
A. They were unwilling to brush their teeth
B. They often failed to clean their toothbrushes.
C. They preferred to use a toothbrush with a dry head.
D. They liked brushing their teeth after Serval came home.
61. What can we learn about the future development of the Kolibree?

1.The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush.
【翻译】这种牙刷还可以和其他的手机应用进行交流,那么开发者就可以创造一种由你的牙刷控制的游戏。
【分析】本句中的so表示上下文之间的因果关系,是一个并列连词。句中的for instance是一个插入语,过去分词短语controlled by your toothbrush在句中充当定语修饰前面的名词a game,这主要是因为动词control与game之间构成被动关系。
2. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth.
【翻译】他下班回家以后经常会问他的孩子是否已经刷牙了。
【分析】本句中的情态动词would表示过去常常做某事,would表示过去常常做,现在可能还在做;而used to do sth表示过去常常做,现在不做了。另外句中的宾语从句if they had brushed their teeth中的if表示“是否”,而不是“如果”。

The kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.
The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
62. How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
A. It trains teachers for them.
B. It contributes to their self-study.
C. It helps raise their living standards.
D. It provides funds for building schools.
63. What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. They need more time to analyze data.
B. More children are needed for the research.
C. He is confident about the future of the project.
D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
64. It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.
A. learn English words quickly. B. draw pictures of animals.
C. write letters to researchers. D. make phone calls to his friends.
65. What is the aim of the project?
A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.
D. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.

阅读下面的短文并用英语回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的字数要求)。
[1] Nowadays the cost of a new car has fallen in real terms so that it is cheaper than ever to own one, and better road conditions have also attracted more drivers. The result is overcrowding on the road system, which is one of the problems the local governments are faced with.
[2] When people travel to other towns, the problem might be relieved by getting them to park outside the town. Buses could be provided to take them into the centre. These Park and Ride projects are increasingly popular in the UK. At Southerton, for example, a council-funded project led to a 15% drop in city centre traffic over five months.
[3] What the council found, though, was that the project proved somewhat unpopular with shop owners in the area outside the centre. Many of their shops relied on passing car drivers for some of their trade. As the number of people driving past dropped, so did their incomes.
[4] Making car driving expensive is another way of ____________. Road taxes tend to mean that people use their cars less. Fining drivers who are in areas where cars have been banned can also tend to encourage them to leave their cars behind. [来源:中国教&育%#出版^网@]
[5] However, one thing has to be got right for any solution to succeed. If we expect people to give up the habit of driving, we must give them an alternative they can rely on. Constant delays, unannounced changes to the timetable and sudden cancellations all discourage people from using public transport. People will only see it as a real choice if the buses and trains are on time.

68.【答案】Their incomes dropped because fewer people drove past
【试题解析】推理题。根据文章第三段Many of their shops relied on passing car drivers for some of their trade. As the number of people driving past dropped, so did their incomes. 可知因为人流量的减少,这些店主的收入也下降了,所以他们很不开心。
