7．D
【详解】句意：我哥哥是一个幽默的年轻人，他经常讲笑话逗我们笑。
考查形容词词义辨析。A. strict意为“严格的”；B. proud意为“骄傲的”；C. rude意为“粗鲁的”；D. humorous意为“幽默的”。由后句“他经常讲笑话逗我们笑”可推知，前句意为“我哥哥是一个幽默的年轻人”，故选D。
8．C
【详解】句意：——你能弹钢琴吗？——是的，我能。我也会打网球。考查冠词辨析题。piano钢琴，器乐类名词，需用定冠词the修饰；baseball棒球，球类名词不加冠词。根据句意语境，可知选C。
9．D
【详解】句意：自从他来这里已经三年了。考查现在完成时。A. be 成为，是；B. was一般过去式；C. will be 一般将来时；D. has been现在完成时。Since+过去的时间点或一般过去时的从句，此句时态用现在完成时，根据since he came here（自从他来这里）可知此句时态是现在完成，故选D。
10．A
【详解】句意：——你爸爸过去经常开车上班吗？——是的，但现在他喜欢乘坐公共交通工具。他习惯于乘公共汽车。
考查use的用法。根据“Did you father use to...to work”可知此处是询问对方爸爸是否过去常常开车上班，used to do sth“过去常常做某事”；第二空根据“now...He is used to...the bus.”可知爸爸现在习惯坐公交车，be used to doing sth“习惯做某事”，故选A。
11．D
【详解】句意：——汤姆怎么去办公室？——他过去常常开车，可现在他为了保持健康习惯于走着去那里。
考查固定搭配。used to do sth.“过去常常做某事”；be used to doing sth.“习惯于做某事”。根据答语句意“他过去常常开车，可现在他为了保持健康习惯于走着去那里”，故选D。
12．C
【详解】句意：这个年轻人足够勇敢去河里救这个小男孩。
考查enough的用法。A. enough bravely足够勇敢地；B. bravely enough足够勇敢地；C. brave enough足够勇敢的；D. enough brave足够勇敢的。根据enough的位置遵循“名前形副后”的原则，可知此处enough要放在“勇敢”后，所以排除AD；又此处作表语和其前be动词构成系表结构，所以用形容词，故选C。
13．C
【详解】句意：他能在这么短的时间内做这么多工作吗？
so为副词，修饰形容词或副词，且常与many，much，few，little（少）等连用，构成固定搭配；such为形容词，修饰名词（词组）。题干中第一个空后虽有名词work，但前面有much，应用so；第二个空后是名词词组，应用such修饰，故选C。
14．D
【详解】句意：他在会上总是保持沉默，从不发表意见。考查形容词辨析题。A. serious严肃的；B. active活跃的；C. excited兴奋的；D. silent安静的。根据下文and he never gives his opinions. 从不发表意见，可知前三项不合句意，故选D。
15．B
【详解】句意：很难想象他的行为有多不同。
考查宾语从句引导词。what什么；how怎么；why为什么；who谁；根据语境可知，此处是引导一个宾语从句，而整个从句是一个感叹句的结构，主语是his action，谓语是is，主语前是形容词different，所以用how引导，故选B。
16．C
【详解】句意：这种食物太贵了。请不要买太多这样的食物。
考查形容词短语和副词短语辨析。much too太，修饰形容词；too much太多，修饰不可数名词；第一空修饰的是形容词expensive，表达“太……”，所以用much too；而第二空修饰的是名词food，所以用too much，故选C。
17．C
【详解】句意：他们学校的老师人数约200人，其中许多是女老师。
考查主谓一致。“a number of +可数名词复数”表示“很多……”，当它作主语时，谓语动词用复数；“the number of +名词”表示“……的数量”，当它作主语时，谓语动词用单数。本题中第一个空后面的谓语动词“is ”是单数，由此推断该空是“The number of”；第二个空后面的谓语动词“are”是复数，由此推断该空是“a number of”。故选C。
18．B
【详解】句意：——我担心我没有足够的勇气在很多人面前演讲。——不要担心。相信自己。
考查形容词辨析。shy害羞的；brave勇敢的；bored无聊的；interested感兴趣的。根据答语Don’t worry. Believe in yourself.可知应是没有足够的勇气在很多人面前演讲，故选B。
19．D
【详解】试题分析：句意：-你能在星期一或星期二来吗，约翰？-恐怕这两天都不可能。这两天我很忙。Either两者当中的任何一者；both两者都；every每一个；neither两者都不。根据语境可知该选D。
20．D
【详解】句意：我找不到我的钢笔了，你看到它了吗？
考查动词辨析。find 找到，侧重于表示结果；look for 寻找，侧重于表示寻找的过程；see 看到，也侧重于表示看的结果，而不是过程；look at 看，考虑，着眼于，表示看的动作。故选A。
21．B
【详解】句意：——你过去在第四中学学习吗？——是的，我在。used to do sth.过去常常做某事，变一般疑问句，可以借助助动词did，相当于句子的时态为一般过去时，答语也要用did, didn’t来回答；也可以直接把used提前，视作情态动词，答语用used, usedn’t来回答。根据答语判断，本句是借助了did，后面要用动词原形，故答案为B。
22．D 23．C 24．C 25．B 26．A 27．B 28．D 29．A 30．D 31．A
【分析】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述作者小时候因生气而弄破父亲背心的一次教训，父亲的宽容让作者终生难忘，并因此改变了经常发脾气的坏习惯。
22．句意：一些树叶开始变黄，天气变得凉爽。
books书籍；walls墙壁；phones照片；leaves树叶。根据“an early autumn”及下文“and the weather became cool”可知是秋天天气变凉，树叶开始变黄，用名词leaves。故选D。
23．句意：我妈妈不小心给了我父亲的背心,而不是我的。
hers她的东西；his他的东西；mine我的东西；ours我们的东西。instead of表示“替换，而不是”后面接名词，根据“my mother carelessly handed me my father’s vest”可知此处表示“而不是我的背心”用mine相当于my vest。故选C。
24．句意：那个时候，我的身材比我父亲还大，所以当我穿上背心时，我觉得自己好像无法呼吸了！
thinner较瘦的；smaller较小的；larger较大的；shorter较短的。根据下文“so when I put on the vest，I felt as if I wasn't able to breathe”可知我的体型比父亲的要大，用比较级larger。故选C。
25．句意：我意识到这是我母亲犯的一个小错误。
given给；made犯；shown展示；chosen选择。表示“犯错误”用动词短语make mistakes/a mistake，此处是定语从句，mistake是先行词，which后面是被动形式was made。故选B。
26．句意：妈妈笑着说对不起，我想也没想就冲她大喊大叫。
without没有，表伴随；about关于；with和,带有，表伴随；of 属于，表所属。根据“but I shouted at her”可知此处表示没有想太多就大叫，用表示否定意义的介词without。故选A。
27．句意：我穿上自己的背心，在妈妈阻止我之前冲出了家门。
after在……之后；before在……之前；when 当……的时候；since自从……，用于表示一段时间。本句是时间状语从句，两句的动作有先后之分，主句动作rush（冲）在前，从句动作stop（阻止）在后，此处用连词before引导时间状语从句。故选B。
28．句意：父亲没有说他会骂我或打我，而是平静地让母亲缝补背心。
sadly悲伤地；angrily愤怒地；bravely勇敢地；quietly安静地，平静地。根据“Instead of saying he would scold or beat me”可知父亲没有生气而是心平气和地，用副词quietly。故选D。
29．句意：我父亲的和蔼可亲给了我一个永远不会忘记的教训。
never从不；often经常；always总是;sometimes有时。“a lesson”后面是which引导的定语从句，根据“My father's gentle kindness taught me a lesson”可知这是一个永远不会忘记的教训，此处用副词never。故选A。
30．句意：那一天，我决定不再让愤怒控制我。
forget 忘记；help帮助；leave离开；control控制。表达“让（使）某人做某事”用短语“let sb. do sth.”；根据anger可知此处用control表示控制人的愤怒，故选D。
31．句意：然而，无论什么时候发生这种事，我都会努力记住我父亲的背心。
vest背心；school学校；anger愤怒；mistake 错误。根据前文“my father’s vest”可知此处用名词vest。故选A。
