答案以及解析
一、单选题
1.答案:D
解析:句意:——我好久没见到布朗太太了。——她已经去世两年了。考查现在完成时的用法。根据“...for two years.”可知句子时态是现在完成时。die“死亡”,是短暂性动词。当现在完成时与一段时间连用,其谓语动词应是延续性动词,die的延续性动词为be dead,故选D。
2.答案:A
解析:句意:我妈妈一再提醒我要照顾好自己,因为这是我第一次独自旅行。考查动词辨析。reminded提醒;reported报道;respected尊重;remained保持。根据下文“because it was my first time to travel alone”,可知后面三项不合语境,这里是说妈妈提醒“我”要照顾好自己,故选A。
3.答案:C
解析:句意:——盒子里有什么?——一些鱼。考查名词辨析。bee蜜蜂;ant蚂蚁;fish鱼;butterfly蝴蝶。根据“Some”可知,此空应该用可数名词的复数形式。fish的复数是fish。故选C。
4.答案:A
解析:句意:——我不明白李老师刚才说的话,我现在有点担心。——别担心。他答应在考试前复习要点。考查动词词义辨析。review复习;receive收到;respect尊敬;require要求。根据“before the exam.”可知,这里表示在考试之前“复习”要点。故选A。
5.答案:D
解析:句意:这位老妇人在80岁时去世了。考查时态。death死亡,名词;dead死的,形容词;die死亡,动词原形;died死亡,一般过去时。此处作谓语,应该填动词,根据“at the age of eighty”,可知用一般过去时,故选D。
