ⅰ.单项填空
1.doyouthinkitis________goodmannerstohearothers’conversationsin ________curiousmanner?
a.the;a b./;/
c./;a d.the;the
解析:选c。goodmanners“礼貌”前不加冠词,而ina... manner为固定搭配,所以选c。
2.-couldiaskyouaratherpersonalquestion?
-sure,________.
a.pardonme b.goahead
c.goodidea d.forgetit
解析:选b。句意:“我可以问你一个私人问题吗?”“当然可以,说吧。”pardonme请再说一遍;goahead干吧,说吧,用吧;goodidea好主意;forgetit没关系,不必在意;(表示不想重复说过的话)别提它了;住嘴。
3.jim’sfatherdidn’t ________himtojointheschoolfootballteam,whichmadehimangry.
a.let b.promise
c.permit d.hope
解析:选c。letsb.dosth.;hope无此结构;promisesb.todosth.意为主语答应要干某事,不符合句意。
4.—ihearjohnsonwasbadlyinjuredintheaccident.
—________,let’sgoandseehim.
a.ifnot b.ifso
c.ifnecessary d.ifpossible
解析:选b。ifnot如果不的话;ifso如果那样;ifnecessary如果有必要;ifpossible如果有可能。根据语境,选择b。
5.thepooryoungmanisreadytoaccept________helphecanget.
a.whichever b.however
c.whatever d.whenever
解析:选c。句意:那位可怜的年轻人准备接受他能得到的任何帮助。whatever引导一个宾语从句,并在从句中作定语,修饰help。
6.ihaveno________withpeoplewhoarealwayscomplainingoftheirmisfortunes.
a.devotion b.belief
c.patience d.balance
解析:选c。句意:对于那些总是抱怨他们的不幸的人我没有耐心。devotion热爱;belief信任;patience耐心,忍耐;balance平衡,天平。共
7.whenhelookedup,hesuddenlyfoundhimself________byagroupofteenagers,________lookedathimanxiously.
a.tobesurrounded;which
b.surrounded;who
c.besurrounded;who
d.havingbeensurrounded;which
解析:选b。考查非谓语动词和定语从句。“发现自己被一群十几岁的孩子包围了。”用过去分词作宾语补足语表示被动,第二处用who引导定语从句,修饰teenagers。
8.—doesitrainalotinthisarea?
—________,ithardlyeverrains;theclimateislikethatofadesert.
a.what’smore b.inotherwords
c.onthecontrary d.asaresult
解析:选c。onthecontrary意为“相反地”。
9.it’swiseofyouto________yourfather’sadvicewhenyoucometoanydifficulty.
a.ask b.seek
c.try d.attempt
解析:选b。seekone’sadvice意为“征求某人的意见”。a应为askforone’sadvice,c、d构不成有意义的词组。
10.whenthemanwastryingtobreakintothebank,hewascaughtbythepolice________.
a.inaspot b.onthespot
c.offthespot d.tothespot
解析:选b。本题考查spot短语的用法。句意:当那个人试图闯入银行时,他被警察当场抓获了。onthespot在现场,当场,与本句的语境一致;inaspot陷入困境;offthespot不准确,离题;而d项是一个不存在的结构。
