1. A【句意】据报道一系列事故发生在那个十字路口。
【解析】a series of“一系列”后面接可数名词复数做主语时谓语动词要求用单数。B、C、D意思都是“许多,大量”。而a number of后面加可数名词的复数,谓语动词用复数;an amount of后面要加不可数名词;a lot of后面可加可数名词或不可数名词。题干中of后面接的是accidents及谓语用has occurred单数形式,所以选择A答案。
2. D【句意】如果某人在美国不走了,那意味着他在那儿永久居住了。
【解析】固定搭配for good的意思是“永久地”。 permanently“永久地”;to do good“做好事”;temporarily“暂时的”;to rest well“好好休息”。
3. B【句意】请再多给我们点儿时间,好吗?
【解析】let us 引导的祈使句其反意疑问句一般用“will you”; let’s引导的祈使句其反意疑问句一般用“shall we”。
4. A【句意】不着急,你可以慢慢做那些练习。
【解析】短语take one’s time doing sth. 表示“不着急,慢慢做某事”。
5. A【句意】他英语说得如此好,以致于我想当然地认为他是一个美国人。
【解析】短语take sth. for granted意思是“想当然”。
6. C【句意】正如需要空气和水,我们还需要批评和自我批评。
【解析】even though“即使”;so long as“只要”;just as“正如”;now that“既然”。根据题意,C正确。
7. D【句意】孩子们总是对他们见到的一切事情感兴趣。
【解析】短语be curious about“对…好奇”。
8. A【句意】任何人,富有的或贫穷的,年老的或年轻的,生病的或健康的,都能有最喜爱的嗜好。
【解析】well用作形容词时表示“健康的”,所以选择well与sick相对应,符合题意。
9. C 【句意】我们希望她能一周至少来两次教我们。
【解析】It’s desired + that从句,句型中that后的主语从句要采用虚拟语气(should)+动词原形的形式。
10. A【句意】如果他们来我们这儿,我们就能问他们一些问题了。
【解析】此句是省略if的条件句,并且是与表示与将来事实相反的虚拟语气的句子,所以从句要用should的结构。当if条件句中有助动词should, had 或were时,则可省去if, 而将should, had 或 were置于句首,从而构成倒装虚拟句,意义不变。
11. D【句意】1990年他得了一场现在还时常遭受其痛苦的重病。
【解析】whose引导定语从句,whose可以做从句中的定语,which或that只能做主语或宾语。
12. B【句意】他发现让所有人都知道发生了什么事是必要的。
【解析】find it necessary + to do结构,it是形式宾语,形容词necessary是宾语补足语,动词不定式短语做真正的宾语。
13. C【句意】当受访人回答问题时,采访者应该记录下来。
【解析】当句中谓语动词所表示的动作和现在分词所表示的动作在时间上一致时,用现在分词一般式,如果分词的逻辑主语是动作的承受者,就要用现在分词的被动式。Being interviewed 是现在分词的被动语态作定语,修饰the person,所以选择C。
14. A【句意】“17号车赢得了比赛。”“是的,但车手几乎死于车赛。”
【解析】短语come close to相当于“almost, nearly”,此短语中的to是介词,因此后面要接动名词。而B选项“having been”是动名词的完成式表示动作发生在谓语动词之前,不合题意。
15. B【句意】大约公元6世纪,当欧洲人能够阅读的时候,中国人已经发明纸张了。
【解析】had invented过去完成时表示动作发生在过去的过去。跟据题干,所以选择B。
16. B【句意】我有两个朋友,但是他们任何一个都不喜欢和我一块儿去钓鱼。
【解析】neither表示两者的否定。none是对三者或三者以上的否定;both指两者都;either指两个中的任何一个。所以B符合题意。
17. B【句意】不幸的童年是他有坏脾气的原因。
【解析】account for“是……的原因,描述,解释”;count“计数”;make for“走向,冲向”;go for“出去进行,去请,适用于”。根据题意,B正确。
18. C【句意】没人怀疑它是真的。
【解析】doubt在表示否定的句子中通常接that从句表示怀疑,不相信的内容,在肯定的句子中接whether/if的从句较多,表示“认为(某事)未必可能”的意思。
19. C【句意】他的兄弟成为了老师——他所想成为的人。
【解析】which引导非限制性定语从句;that只能引导限制性定语从句,who引导先行词是人的定语从句,此题teacher指的是一种职业,不是具体的人;what引导定语从句时要求既做主句的宾语又同时引导定语从句,所以只有which符合题意。
20. D【句意】直到我来到中国,才知道她是一个什么样的国家。
【解析】Not until放在句首要求句子采用部分倒装。
