Ⅳ.阅读理解
There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew that at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes, waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia（马来西亚）. I was moved.
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or by car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly（特别地）relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug（拥抱）. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten（饱经风霜的）face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.
1. The author expected the train trip to be _________.
A. dangerous B. pleasant
C. exciting D. dull
2. What did the author remember most fondly of her train trip?
A. The friendly country people.
B. The mountains along the way.
C. The crowds of people in the streets.
D. The simple lunch served on the train.
3. Which of the following words can best take the place of the word“relish”in the second paragraph?
A. choose B. enjoy
C. prepare for D. carry on
4. Where was the writer going?
A. Johore Baru. B. The Causeway.

A. Comfort in traveling by train.
B. Pleasure of living in the country.

答案与解析
1. C 本题考查rather than的搭配用法。在此处与prefer搭配构成prefer to do A rather than do B结构。由于把rather than置于句首，所以使得解题难度增加了。
2. D 根据rather than连接两个平行结构的原则，分析本题的结构可知，play与devotes不是平行关系，而与helping是平行关系，故选D项。句意：他总是把时间奉献在帮助孩子们学习上，而不是在玩电脑游戏上。
3. A rather than意为“而不是”，连接两个主语时，根据前面的主语确定谓语动词的单复数形式。
4. A way后接定语从句时，其关系词可以用in which，也可以用that。但在很多情况下却不用关系词，即省略关系词。掌握了这一点也就容易解这道题了。
5. C 句意：在我们组织生成信息方面，计算机引发了令人震惊的技术变革。in the way在……方面，后面跟省去that的定语从句。
6. C 从语义及四个选项可知，只有day by day意为“一天天，逐日”，不符合语境。
7. D 从A、B、C、D四个选项可知，在结构上只有D项正确，意为“挨家挨户”。
8. A million前若有具体数字或several等词时，要用单数形式。many一般不与million等数词连用；表示“数百万”，用millions of。
9. B hundred前有具体数字时就不能加-s，故排除A、D两项；word作“单词”讲时是可数名词，故选B项。
10. B 因为后面是从句所以只能从B、C两项中选，此处指一件事，不表示时间，故选B项。
11. B if not better than在句中是插入语，这样结构和意义就明确了。此处用as well as，表示“与……一样好”。
12. A 句意：近几十年，除了一两个加油站外，这些古老的新英格兰村庄相对来说几乎没什么变化。except for表示的是不同类事物的对比（除去）；except表示的是同类事物的对比（除去）；in addition to(=besides)除……之外（还有）。
13. B as well“也，还”，用于句末。句意：我们的假期被完全毁了。这不仅是因为糟糕的食物，天气也非常恶劣。故选B项。
14. C surround可作及物动词，其被动结构常为be surrounded by/with。从本题主句表达“敌人只好投降”的意思来看，从句的大意应该是“敌人被包围”，故选C项。
15. A 本题中的population相当于the number of the people，故描述或说明它的形容词应用large或small。由于句中用了连词than，其形容词就应是比较级形式，C项是干扰项，more只能构成比较级，而不能修饰比较级。
16. A 本题中的population亦指the number of the people。故应看做单数概念，当其作主语时，谓语动词应用单数形式。C项不能与increasing构成正确的搭配形式。
17. B 分数词作主语时，其谓语动词与分数词后的名词保持一致，本题中分数词后的名词population应看做“人”，相当于people，故其谓语动词用复数。
18. B 本题中A、B、C三项都可以用作连系动词，从结构上看，空格后是形容词，故先排除D项。从意义上看，A项意为“（被）证明是”，不符合语境，C项有“保持”的意思，但有主观意味，而句意表示客观的结果。
19. B 首先需要说明的是该题的情景是“the snake in the sleeping bag”（《睡袋里的蛇》）的惊险场面。在热带雨林中探险工作者晚上在睡袋里睡觉，但不幸的是一条大毒蛇爬进了睡袋，并且盘在Al的肚子上，为了驱赶蛇，同伴们用烟熏的方法，但由于烟不够多，当烟用完了的时候，蛇开始在肚子上平静下来。
20. A settle down“定居下来”。句意：正是由于这个原因，她姑姑才从深圳搬出来在一个小村庄里定居了下来。其他选项均无“定居”之意。
21. C 根据前句“我学习语言一向轻而易举”来看，后一句应该是对前一句的补充说明，意为“这是天赋”，只有gift有“天赋”的含义，故选C项，而A、B、D三项均不符合语境。
22. B 本题中说话人要表达的意思是希望对方给他一张照片来珍藏，由此可见说话人把对方的照片看得很珍贵。
23. B measure表示“尺寸是……”时，常用作不及物动词，后面直接跟尺寸，其他选项无此意思。所以B项正确。
24. B take measures to do sth. “采取措施做某事”；stop sb. /sth. from doing sth. “阻止……做某事”。
25. B 根据后面finally可知最后我们设法及时赶到了机场。故用manage to，强调结果。
26. A manage to do sth. “成功地做成了某事”；succeed也有成功之意，但多用于succeed in doing sth. 结构。
27. A out of sight“看不见”；out of reach“够不到”；out of order“杂乱；出故障”；out of place“不在原来的地方；不恰当”。句意：在火车站，这位母亲挥手向她的女儿告别，直到火车看不见。
28. D 句意：我曾经见过她，但从来没有真正和她说过话。空格内应填入谓语动词，排除B项和C项，而A项不能带宾语。
29. B 本题考查名词词义的辨析。within one’s reach意为“在某人够得着的范围内”，根据句意可知应选B项。
30. A 本题考查介词的用法。从上下文语境我们可以看出，第一个句子要表达的含义是“他发现靠自己的收入生活很困难”。live on有“靠……生活”的意思，还有“继续活着，继续存在，以……为主要食物（指人）”的意思；feed on也有“以……为主要食物”之意，但它侧重于指“动物”而不是“人”。
31. C 根据句中的easy reach以及后一句表达的“乘车只需半小时就可以到达”可知此处应用within，而不应用beyond。
32. D 从句子中的目的状语to serve the people“为人民服务”来分析空格处所填的短语与fire and water的语意之间的联系，不是A项的“与……一致”，不是B项的“与……背离”，也不是C项的“去……”，而应是D项的“经历”，此处引申为“赴汤蹈火”的含义。
33. B 本题考查go构成的短语。go into“开始从事某类工作”；go through相当于live through，意为“经历，遭受”；go back on“违约，改变主意”；go along with sb. /sth. “赞同某人/某事”。从整个句子的含义来推断只有go through符合句意。
34. B open-minded思想开明的，坦率的；hard-working勤劳的，努力工作的；self-confident自信的；warm-hearted热心肠的。句意：我弟弟真是能干，他经常在办公室里工作到深夜。
35. A English-speaking讲英语的。
36. A 本题考查复合形容词的构成。在“num. +n. +adj. ”结构中，名词必须使用单数形式，B、C、D三项形式均有误，都应被排除。
37. C 根据复合形容词的构成中名词用单数的原则可先排除A项，B项缺冠词，D项词序混乱。
38. B 句意：老师走进教室，后面跟着学生（即被学生跟着）。如果选A项，应在followed前加and构成并列谓语，或者用following也对，即“老师走在学生后面”。
39. C A项意为“不超过”；B项意为“不少于”；C项意为“仅仅”；D项意为“多于”。
40. C 根据题干和选项推测句意为“《中国日报》不仅仅是一份报纸，它还帮助我们提高英语水平”。故C项符合题意。
41. B more than willing to do sth. 非常乐意做某事。
42. A C项during是介词，不能接从句。句意：妈妈因小艾丽斯病了而着急，尤其是当时她爸爸还在法国。由此可知此处需要用引导时间状语从句的连词，所以用as。
43. D 本题前一分句表示“看起来像”，表达此意用look like；后一分句表示“像……一样做……”，应用连词as，虽然like也有用作连词的情况，但那是一种非正式的用法。
44. A be used as“被用作，被当做……用”。这里的as为介词。
45. A 根据此处句意“一切像计划的那样进展顺利”可知，选A项。这里的as为连词，其后可看做是it is被省略了的形式，也可说成连词与分词连用。
46. D 用that引导同位语从句，解释说明story的内容，其他选项不能引导同位语从句。
47. A 表示数目的多少应用large或small，而不能用many或much，故排除B、D两项；依据后句提示可知，还有许多票未卖出去，故只能选择much smaller，much用来修饰比较级，加强语气。
48. B 根据物理学常识可知，声音比光在空气里的传播速度慢，故选B项。

50. A 此处go through表示“审阅，检查”。
51. C 对某地的人口提问用what。
52. D thousands and thousands of表示“成千上万”，也可以说成thousands of。
53. D 此处表示主句和从句的动作同时发生，也可理解为“一边……，一边……”。

58. B 此题中含有一个主语从句。it作形式主语，whether they will enjoy it是真正的主语。remain后接to do sth. 作表语，而see与主语从句之间是动宾关系，所以要用to be seen作remains的表语。
