答案与解析
1.occasionally 2.setting 3.sections
4.channel 5.arguing
1~5 DABDC 6~10 CDBDD
1.D 句意:他隔行写字。every two lines相当于every other line/every second line,故选D
2.A argue sb. into doing sth.“说服某人做某事”,符合句意,故选A advise后跟sb. to do sth.。
3.B
4.D 本题考查“It is/was+过去分词+that从句”这一结构。it作形式主语,真正的主语为that引导的从句,what she had done意为“她所做的事情”,作介词for的宾语。
5.C be set in“以……为背景”,此处用过去分词短语作定语,相当于一个非限制性定语从句which is set in France的省略形式。
6.C It’s no good doing sth.“做某事是没有用的”,为固定句型,先排除A、B两项。being asked表被动,不合题意,故排除D项。
7.D
8.B couldn’t be any worse表示最高级的含义,意为“再糟糕不过了”。句意:“你对她所做的满意吗?”“一点也不满意,再也没有比这更糟糕的了。”
9.D
10.D 考查交际用语。Good for you“做得好”,符合题意。

The film takes a close look at a few hours in the lives of the victims and the killers. It shows how high school is a 13 experience for everyone—fun and friendly, or hard and lonely. In many ways, the two 14 who carry out the shooting, act like ordinary kids. They joke around with one boy's mother 15 she serves them cakes.
But, there are hints(暗示)of the 16 they feel inside. One of the boys is bullied(欺负)at school. The other plays 17 video games. But Van Sant isn't 18 their killings on either bullying or violent games. In fact, the film doesn't offer any reason for why school violence happens.

答案与解析
I. 1.section 2.shark 3.occasionally 4.ads/advertisements 5.arguing
channels 7.Telly 8.entertaining 9.plot 10.drama
II. 1.C 句意:那部以唐代为背景的电影深受许多外国观众的喜爱。set in Tang Dynasty是过去分词短语作定语,相当于定语从句which is set in Tang Dynasty。
D 由前一句中的every now and then可知应选D项,occasionally意为“有时,偶尔”,和every now and then同义。
A 句意:这本书如此有趣以至于他迷上它了。entertaining意为“使人愉快的,有趣的”。
B at the age of sixteen意为“在16岁的时候”,“在某人20多岁的时候”应表达为in one’s twenties。
D 句意:今晚我要招待朋友而不去看电影。interest作动词时意为“使感兴趣”;courage作名词,意为“勇气”;envy作动词,意为“妒忌”;entertain作动词,意为“使娱乐;招待”。故D项正确。
C It is thought that...是固定句型,意为“人们认为……”,其中It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that从句。
D argue with sb. about/over sth.是固定搭配,意为“和某人争论某事”。
C 句意:他登广告寻找他丢失的钱包。advertise for...意为“为了得到……而登广告”。
III. 1.A 根据下半句“…and boys play football.”可以看出这是个休闲的时间,朋友们在聊天。
2.B 根据前后的语境“there’s a big surprise”可以判断出上下文之间是转折关系。
3.C 从文章的第一句话“…American high school life.”可以判断出这个故事是发生在学校里的。
4.D 从上下文的语境“这是电影《大象》”和“it stars real high school kids.”可以判断出这部电影是在20天内拍完的。film可以用作动词,意为“拍电影”。filmed是过去分词作定语。
5.B 准备台词的工作是由导演来做的。
6.B 和上句的“…had no ready-made lines(台词).”相衔接,学生演员们自己编对白。
7.C Van Sant导演要求他们根据自己的生活来编对白。
8.C 前半句的“it may not sound very high quality”和后半句的“won awards for Best Film…”是转折关系,故用although。
9.C 从一开始就说明了这是一部电影,所以这里很容易判断出来是“film”获奖了。
10.D 从第一段的最后一句“…when the movie ends with…shooting and killing people.”可以判断出这部电影是根据美国一所高中的枪杀案而写的。
11.A 根据上半句话的最后的内容“at a high school in the US”和后面句中所缺的句子成分,可以判断出应该用表示地点的关系副词where。
12.D 根据后面一句话的内容可以看出是介绍的这部电影的名字,故用title(标题)。
13.A 从后半句的“fun and friendly, or hard and lonely”可以看出这部电影显示出中学生的经历是不同的。
14.B 从第三段的第二句“…two boys killed 13 people and…”可以判断出本题的答案为B
15.D 此处表示的是两个动作同时进行,故用as。
16.B 从杀人这个事情来看,他们的心中充满了愤怒。
17.C 从下一句中的violent games(暴力游戏)可以得到提示,本题的答案为violent。
18.A 从下文的语境“In fact, the film doesn’t offer any reason for…”可以看出Van Sant导演只是再现了事实,而没有对这些事情做出什么对与错的评判,即没有指责。
19.C 从上句话的“In fact, the film doesn’t offer any reason for why school violence happens.”可以得知答案为C
20.A 既然这部电影是对真实情况的一个再现,那么看了这部电影之后观众会有真实的评判。
IV. 1.把第一句中的accepted改为receiveD 收到某人的邮件用动词receive。
2.把第二句中的a删掉。progress是不可数名词,故不能用不定冠词a修饰。
3.在第二句中的good Chinese前面添加in。in good Chinese意为“用很好的汉语”。
4.把第三句中的show改为showeD showed和前面的read并列,都表示过去的行为。
5.把第三句中的it删掉。you sent to me是省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句,it是多余的。
6.把第六句中的but改为anD 前后是顺承关系,故用anD
7.把第七句中的clearly改为clear。it is clear that…意为“很明显……”,本句式中用形容词作表语。
8.把第七句中的me改为mine。mine相当于my life。
9.把第九句中的hear改为hearing。look forward to中的to是介词,故用hearing。
10.把最后一句中的wish改为wishes。best wishes是习惯用法,用于书信的结尾,向对方表示祝福。
