第Ⅰ卷(选择题)
一、单项选择
1. Last Sunday my whole family went to the beach ________ my father. He was away on business.
A. from B. except C. with D. including
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:上星期天,除了我父亲,我们全家都去了海滩。他出差去了。
考查介词辨析。from来自;except除……之外;with和……一起;including包括……在内。根据“He was away on business.”可推断出“除了我爸爸没有去,我们全家都去海滩了。”因此所缺的词是except,故选B。
2. She used_______up late, but now she is used to________up early.
A. get; get B. to get; getting C. to get; get D. get; getting
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:她过去常常晚起床,但现在她已经习惯早起了。
考查非谓语动词和固定搭配。由句中“but”可知,两句构成转折关系。由“but now”可知,前句表示过去经常做某事,应用结构used to do sth.;后句表示现在习惯于做某事,be used to doing sth.习惯于做某事,故选B。
3. My grandpa knows the history and medical of many plants.
A. wealth B. price
C. value D. cost
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:我爷爷知道许多植物的历史和药用价值。A. wealth财富;B. price价格;C. value价值;D. cost费用。根据句意,结合选项,可知C选项符合题意,故答案选C。
4. In many eastern European countries, you are supposed to ___your gloves before shaking hands.
A. clean off B. shut off C. get off D. take off
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:在许多东欧国家,在你握手之前应该脱掉手套。
考查动词短语。clean off除去,清除;shut off关闭,停止运转;get off离开,动身;take off脱掉,起飞。根据本题语境可知,在许多东欧国家,你在和人握手之前要“脱掉”手套,故take off符合题意。故选D。
【点睛】关于off的短语:take off起飞,turn off关掉,give off发出光、热、气味等,keep off让开,不接近,get off下车,cut off 切掉;切断;阻隔,shake off抖掉;甩掉;逃脱;摆脱(麻烦、烦恼等),see sb. off 为某人送行,set off 出发,起程;激起,引起,put off 推迟,拖延, show off 炫耀,better off 情况较好,push off推迟,离开,lay off解雇;停止工作,eat off吃掉;腐蚀掉,kick off踢落,开始,go off 离开,消失。做本题的关键是要知道短语的意思,只要能知道关于off短语的意思,本题也就迎刃而解了。
5. The book is so helpful. It is ________ reading a second time.
A. good B. worth C. polite D. thirsty
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:这本书很有用,值得再读一遍。
考查形容词。good好的;worth值得的;polite礼貌的;thirsty口渴的。根据“The book is so helpful”可知此处指的是书值得再读一遍,用形容词worth构成短语be worth doing。故选B。
6. The girl used to be shy, but she is ______ getting active in team work and willing to make friends.
A. usually B. gradually C. mainly D. seldom
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个女孩过去很害羞,但她逐渐在团队合作中变得积极主动,并愿意交朋友。
考查副词辨析。usually通常;gradually逐渐地;mainly主要地;seldom很少。根据The girl used to be shy, but …getting active in team work,可知,过去很害羞,现在逐渐变得积极主动,所以空格处填gradually。故选B。
7. —What a useful ____________ you’ve given me! Thanks a lot.
—My pleasure.
A. information B. news C. suggestion D. advice
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:你给了我一个多么好的建议!非常感谢。——不客气。A. information信息;B. suggestion建议;C. advice建议。不定冠词a后跟可数名词单数形式,三个答案中只有suggestion是可数名词,故答案为B。
8. Beijing,________ capital of China, is________city with a long history.
A. the; the. B. a ; a C. the; a D. /; the
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:北京,中国的首都,是一个历史悠久的城市。
考查冠词。第一个空表示“中国的首都”,是特指,the capital of China,所以用定冠词the;第二个空表示有悠久历史的“一个”城市,是泛指,所以用不定冠词a,故选C。
9. We often________our friends' homes.
A. drop B. drop in C. drop by D. drop out

【47题详解】
句意:如果有时间的话,我们经常只是顺道拜访我们朋友的家。此处指“我们的朋友的家”,所以用名词所有格;根据“our”可知用“friend”的复数的所有格。以s结尾的名词复数的所有格,在s后加 ’,故填friends’。

句意:你的朋友可能会发疯。may是情态动词,后跟动词原形。故填get。
【54题详解】
句意:我总是早早离开家以避免交通拥挤,因为我认为让别人一直等是不礼貌的。根据句意此处指“让别人一直等”,keep sb. doing意为“让某人一直做某事”,所以应为keep others waiting,故填waiting。
【55题详解】
句意:而且,我们从来不会不先打电话就去拜访朋友的家。根据句意此处指“不会不先打电话就去拜访朋友的家”,是否定句。此段全是一般现在时态描写人情世故上的状况,所以变否定要借助助动词do,主语为we,故填don’t visit。
七、任务型阅读
The home of tea is in China. It is said that tea was found by Shennong, a legendary(传说中的)ruler of ancient China about 5000 years ago. Some people say that tea is the national drink of China. There are mainly six kinds of tea in China, such as black tea, green tea, white tea, etc.
Many Chinese drink it almost every day.
Tea helps keep your mind clear. It's calorie- free and good for your heart. Also, tea can protect against cancer. So it becomes the most widely consumed(广泛饮用的)drink in the world next to water. To celebrate this popular drink, the United Nations has made May 21st International Tea Day recently.
However, people in different countries have different ways to drink tea. In the US, sweet tea is popular. It is made with black tea, sugar and fruit. Unlike Chinese tea, sweet tea in the US is always served ice cold. Many years ago, only rich people drank it.
Black tea and sugar used to cost a lot of money. But now, anyone can drink it.
In the UK, people like to put milk in their tea. This gives it a nice taste. They usually drink it in the afternoon— this is called “tea time”. They like to eat biscuits while drinking their tea.
During tea time, people take a break from work and relax.
If you never drink tea, you can try it. Maybe you'll find your favorite taste.
