答案以及解析
一、
1.答案:when
解析:句意:我正在街上闲逛,这时我看到了我多年不见的朋友。并列连词when相当于and then/and at that time,表示"……这时(突然)……",构成be doing... when..., be about to do...when...结构。
2.答案:and
解析:句意为:我给紧急服务机构打了电话,最后他们派了一架直升机来救我们。分析句子结构可知,设空处应用连词,且两个分句之间是顺承关系,故填and。
3.答案:until
解析:句意:一个人要想成为一名书法艺术家或专家,必须一笔一画逐字地练习,直到将练习的精髓铭记于心。由句意可知,此处表示"直到……为止",故用until。
4.答案:Although/Though/While
解析:句意:尽管越来越多的人可能转向互联网来获取最新的新闻,但报纸是不大可能消失的。根据句意可知,逗号前后两句之间为转折关系,空处应填表示让步关系的从属连词,故用Although/Though/While。
5.答案:unless
解析:句意: 我将取消去展览会参观, 除非你和我一起去。根据句意可知, 本句是条件抉语从句, 表示如果不, 除非, 故填unless。

6.答案:C
解析:本题考查时间状语从句。分析句子成分,空格前后为两个完整的句子,因此空格处需填连词。 first time不能作连词,据此排除A项; for the first time为时间状语,而非连词,排除B项; by the first time意为"在第一次之前;到第一次为止",不合句意,排除D项; the first time为连词,意为"第一次……时",符合题意,故正确答案为C。
7.答案:B
解析: 考查状语从句。句意:尽管我很愿意帮助, 但我没有多少空余时间。as由于,尽管; while虽然; as though好像,仿佛; since自从,由于。由句意可知,空处应用表示让步的从属连词引导让步状语从句,排除C、D选项A和B可用于引导让步状语从句,但as引导让步状语从句时需倒装,本句为陈述句,排除A。故选B。
8.答案:A

三、
答案:①pursued②appreciation③which④making⑤were created⑥so⑦cheaper⑧for⑨initially⑩to be learned/ to be learnt
解析:①考查过去分词。句意:拥有6000多年的历史,中国画,最初被富人追求,大约在公元前221年的东晋时期发展起来。分析句子可知, "originally ①_____ (pursue) by wealthy people"作定语, 修饰Chinese painting, pursue与Chinese painting是被动关系,用过去分词作定语,故填pursued。
②考查名词。句意:后来,在公元581年左右,随着越来越多的人开始欣赏它的美丽,它开始流行起来。分析句子可知,动词后接名词作宾语,appreciation "感激"是不可数名词,故填appreciation.
③考查定语从句,句意:中国的画笔主要由山羊、狼,狐毛制作,适合制作既柔软又细的画笔。分析句子可知,空格处引导定语从句,指代整个主句,从句中作主语,用关系代词which,故填which。
④考查非谓语动词,句意:油漆工润湿墨水石,然后在石头上研磨墨水棒,使墨水运行,以便它可以用于绘画,分析句子可知,句子的请语动词是wets和grinds表示意料之中的结果,故make用非请语动词形式作状语,make与主语The painter是主动关系,用现在分词作状语,表示理所应当的结果,故填making。
⑤考查动词时态语态和主谓一致,句意:许多中国古代艺术品都是在丝绸上创作的。分析句子可知,create是谓语动词,与主语artworks是被动关系,用被动语态,描述过去发生的事情用一般过去时,且主语artworks是复数,谓语动词用复数,故填were created.
⑥考查状语从句。句意:然而,丝绸是非常昂贵的,只有非常重要的绘画才会使用它,根据句意以及下文的that可知,此处用so...that...引导状语从句,so是副词,修饰形容词expensive作状语,故填so。
⑦考查形容词比较级。句意:到了第一世纪,当早期的纸张被发明时,画画已经便宜很多。根据句意以及空前的a lot修饰形容词比较级可知,此处用形容词cheap的比较级作表语,become是系动词,故填cheaper。
