应用:习题精练
Ⅰ.单项选择
从A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳答案。
1.My demand is that the information referred to in my report_______________ to Mr.Brown without delay.
A.to be emailed B.emailed
C.be emailed D.being emailed 提示:根据句子结构分析,referred to in my report为过去分词短语作定语,所以横线上缺少的是表语从句的谓语动词。demand后的宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句的谓语都应该使用虚拟语气形式,即(should)do sth.。
答案:C
2.The Open University was started to help those who _________having a university education when they were young.
A.stopped B.failed C.passed D.missed
提示:fail和pass后不可接动词的?ing形式;句意表示“错过”而不是“停止”。 答案:D
3.—Have you ever seen a whale alive? —Yes.I’ve seen_______________.
A.that B.it C.such D.one
提示:one作为不定代词,用来代替上文出现的同类单数名词;it指代前面出现过的某个具体事物;that常用来指代上文提到的不可数名词。
答案:D

5.(2010山东潍坊统考)Only under special circumstances_______________ to take up those tests. A.are freshmen permitted B.freshmen are permitted C.permitted are freshmen D.are permitted freshmen
提示:“only+状语”位于句首时,句子采用部分倒装语序,故答案为A项。 答案:A
6.Was it at the school_______________ there was a clock tower_______________ he spent his childhood?
A.where;that B.in which;where C.that;that D.where;where
提示:本题考查强调句型和定语从句的引导词。第一空为定语从句的引导词where在从句中作地点状语;第二空为强调句型的引导词that。被强调的是地点状语at the school。 答案:A
7.It’s nearly 4 hour’s drive from here, _________we have to start very early if we want to get back before dark.

13.Although the two cultures seem to be quite different,they actually have a lot_______________. A.at first sight B.in sight
C.in common D.in equality
提示:根据短语结构have...in common“有共同之处”和句子的意思,尤其是seem和actually的对比得出答案。本句话的意思为:尽管两种文化似乎完全不同,但实际上却有很多相同之处。 答案:C
14.The number of deaths from high blood pressure will be reduced greatly if people_______________ to eat more fruit and vegetables. A.persuade B.will persuade C.be persuaded D.are persuaded
提示:首先,persuade 是及物动词,使用时要么带宾语,要么用被动式。据此可排除A、B两项;由主句谓语动词will be reduced可知从句应为真实条件句。在时间或条件状语从句中,谓语动词用一般时表达将来的动作。 答案:D
15.The engine of the ship was out of order and the bad weather_______________ the helplessness of the crew at sea.
A.added to B.resulted from

提示:add to增加;增添;result from由于;turn out结果是;make up构成。然后结合句子的意思进行分析得出答案。本句话的意思为:轮船的发动机坏了,而恶劣的气候给海上的船员增添了无助。 答案:A
Ⅱ.完形填空
阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从16~35各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳答案。
Coming home from school that dark winter day so long ago,I was filled with excitement of having the weekend off.But I was 16 into stillness by what I saw.Mother,seated at the far end of the sofa, 17 ,with the secondhand green typewriter on the table.She told me that she couldn’t type fast and then she was out of work.My shock and embarrassment(尴尬) at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how 18 I understood the pressures on her.Sitting beside her on the sofa,I began very 19 to understand.“I guess we all have to 20 sometime,”Mother said quietly.I could 21 her pain and the tension(压力) of 22 the strong feelings that were interrupted by my arrival.Suddenly,something inside me 23 .I reached out and put my arms around her.She broke then.She put her face 24 my shoulder and sobbed.I held her 25 and didn’t try to talk.I knew I was doing what I should,what I could
26 it was enough.In that moment,feeling Mother’s 27 with feelings,I understood for the first time her being so easy to 28 .She was still my mother,
2 9 she was something 30 :a person like me,capable of fear and 31 and failure.I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions(场合)when I sought 32 in her arms.
A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station 33 .“It’s a job I can do,though,”she said simply.But the evening practice on the old green typewriter continued.I had a very 34 feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her tapping 35 across the paper.I knew there was something more going on in there than a woman learning to type.
16.A.tired B.ashamed
C.lazy D.shocked 提示:作者高高兴兴地回家过周末,看见家里所发生的事情——根据下文可知是母亲失业了,所以应该是震惊,况且下文也有shock一词。 答案:D
17.A.crying B.smiling C.thinking D.whispering 答案:A
18.A.eagerly B.worriedly
C.little D.much 提示:该句话是作者来解释他为什么会shock,是因为他发现他是多么不理解/不知道母亲身上的压力,little表示理解的极少或不理解之意。 答案:C
19.A.quickly B.slowly C.suddenly D.proudly
提示:由下文通过母亲断断续续说出的话及其情感的表露,作者才慢慢地理解了,所以用slowly。 答案:B
20.A.fail B.win C.fall sick D.give in 答案:A
21.A.know of B.watch
C.sense D.recognize 提示:sense在此表达“感觉到”,因为后面接的是pain和tension,所以不可能用watch“观看”,know of“(间接)听说”,recognize“认出”。 答案:C
22.A.holding back B.putting away
C.sitting up D.stopping from 提示:hold back阻止;抑制(感情);隐瞒;退缩;put away收起来(目前不用);sit up熬夜;stop from阻止。根据文意,母亲是抑制她那强烈的感情。 答案:A
23.A.lit up B.came true C.turned D.increased
提示:用turn表示转变,联系上下文,一开始shocked,然后sensed,这时句中用了suddenly,突然开始那种只是震惊的感情变了。something inside me“我内心的某种东西”,这里应当指情感,想法。 答案:C
24.A.to B.up C.through D.against 答案:D
25.A.tightly B.thoughtfully
C.carefully D.politely 提示:用tightly表示“紧紧地抱着母亲”,表示了作者对母亲的感情,其他三词“彻底地”,“仔细地”,“有礼貌地”都与语境不吻合。 答案:A
26.A.and that B.now that
C.but that D.so that 提示:and that是引导一个并列的宾语从句,和I was doing并列,按照此句的意思,不表转折,也不表原因和目的。 答案:A
27.A.hand B.face
C.hair D.back
提示:因为此时作者是抱着母亲,母亲靠在他肩上,所以他(的手)应抚摸着母亲的背部,因此选back。 答案:D
28.A.content B.break
C.fall D.understand
提示:break此处的语意为:沮丧、崩溃。作者第一次理解了母亲这么容易被击垮,这与上文作者的shocked,母亲的哭泣等都一致。content语意为“满足”,其他两词fall“倒下”,understand“理解”都与上下文挂不上。 答案:B
29.A.therefore B.however
C.yet D.though
提示:用yet表示转折,因为yet下文的语意与上句“她仍然是我母亲”只有“然而,但是”才能连接起来。而however一般后需要一个逗号隔开。 答案:C
30.A.more B.much
C.little D.huge
提示:根据下文(冒号后面)所列举的,说明此处用more,表示除“母亲”以外,还有别的(具有别的含义的人)。 答案:A
31.A.wound B.defeat
C.cut D.hurt
提示:该空前为fear,后为failure,所以不会填defeat,因为与failure重复;cut“割口”,不合适;所以应在wound与hurt中选择,而hurt除受伤外,还可指感情上的受伤,因此选D项。 答案:D
32.A.kindness B.memory C.comfort D.support 答案:C
33.A.supplied B.offered
C.paid for D.contributed
提示:给别人干活,别人给工资,可用offer也可用pay sb.。pay for用于sth.,如pay(money) for the bike;supply表达“供应给某人(所需物品)”;contribute意思是“作贡献”。 答案:B
34.A.different B.hard C.pleasant D.serious
提示:因为有了上文看到母亲感情外露,体谅、理解了母亲承受的压力,所以现在(文中用了now,尤为重要)再经过母亲房门时,作者的感情就不同了,所以选different。 答案:A
35.A.off B.away C.out D.through 提示:根据语境分析,此处说明“在门外听到”,应该是离开一定的距离,所以使用away表示此意境。
