A.I went with B.with whom I went
C.with who I went D.I went with him
答案 B [Li Ming enjoyed it very much是主句,with whom I went to the concert是定语从句。with whom放在从句中为:I went to the concert with Li Ming。]
2.I lost a book,________can't remember now.
A.whose title B.its title
C.the title of it D.the title of that
答案 A [whose title引导非限制性定语从句,whose title也可以说成the title of which。]
3.The professor gave me quite a few novels,________is here for you to read this evening.
A.of that one B.of one which
C.which one of D.of which one
答案 D [of which one引导非限制性定语从句,还可以用作one of which,其中which指代a few novels,即one of a few novels is here for you to read this evening。介词后不能用关系代词that,故排除A项。]
4.My neighbours used to give me a hand in time of trouble,________was very kind of them.
A.who B.which C.that D.it

—Books________to the teacher tomorrow.
A.sent B.to be sent
C.being sent D.sending
答案 B [句意:——你包里有什么?——明天要给老师的书。由句意排除表示完成和正在发生的A、C两项,book和send之间是被动关系,故答案为B项。]
6.I can never forget the day________we worked together and the day________we spent together.
A.when;which B.which;when
C.what;that D.on which;when
答案 A [两个先行词the day都是表示时间的名词,但第一个空白处要填的关系词在从句中作状语,因此要用关系副词when。第二个空白处要填的关系词在从句中作动词spent的宾语,因此要用关系代词which或that来引导定语从句。 ]
7.I'll give you my friend's home address,________I can be reached most evenings.
A.which B.when C.whom D.where
答案 D [where在句中引导非限制性定语从句,并在从句中作地点状语。which引导非限制性定语从句时,通常在从句中作主语、宾语或表语;when表示时间,whom指人。]
8.Last week, only two people came to look at the house,________wanted to buy it.
A.none of them B.both of them
C.none of whom D.neither of whom
答案 D [因为是两者,所以用neither或both,故排除A、C,但是them是代词,不能引导从句,所以选D。neither of whom在此引导非限制性定语从句,该从句修饰先行词two people。]
9.They've won their last three matches,________I find a bit surprising actually.
A.that B.when C.what D.which
答案 D [which在句中引导非限制性定语从句,并在从句中作宾语,先行词为整个主句。that不引导非限制性定语从句;when不作主语;what通常不用于引导定语从句。]
10.________is known to us all is that the 2012 Olympic Games will take place in London.
A.It B.What
C.As D.Which
答案 B [what在此引导主语从句,且在从句中作主语。]
11.Some fat people have a large stomach and no waistline,________makes them look round.
A.it B.that C.which D.this
答案 C [先行词不是一个名词而是整个句子,只有which能引导非限制性定语从句。]
12.My glasses,________I was a blind man,fell to the ground and broke.
A.which B.with which
C.without that D.without which
答案 D [句意:我的眼镜摔破了,没有它我就像个瞎子。由题意可知介词应用without,而that不能放在介词后。]
Ⅳ.短文改错
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

Dear Abby,
How are you?I've got a wonderful news to tell you.I have offered a scholarship at a university in Australia for my further education.One hundred and twenty students took exam for it,but only a few were chosen and I was one of them.Therefore,my parents are not happy about it.They are strong against my going there.They say it is too far away that they will not see me for a whole year and they are afraid that I will feel alone.They can't imagine a girl so young live alone.They advised me to study in the capital instead.Then I'll be able to continue living with them.How can I persuade them to accept the fact I have grown up?
Best wishes! Jane

【参考范文】
Dear Mike,
I went back to visit the town where I was born last week. It was the first time I had been there for ten years, and it had changed a lot. I remember it as a quiet, friendly market town where everybody knew everybody else. Now it is a busy place, full of cars and people, and quite polluted.
There used to be small shops in the main street, but they have all gone. Now there are big supermarkets and fast food restaurants you get everywhere. Where the central park was is now a large car park, and you can't see the church and the school any more.
I went to the street where my family used to live, and that was different, too. Many of the houses had been painted in horrible colours, and the gardens weren't looked after. The trees along the street had been cut down, and there was a lot of rubbish everywhere. The people who lived in the old houses had built new buildings.
I don't think I'll go back again.
Best wishes
Bill

Ⅴ.阅读理解
The Global Heritage Fund organization recently released a list of cultural treasures in the developing world that are in danger of disappearing. These “On_the_Verge” places face many threats(威胁). They include war, development pressures, stealing and misuse by visitors. The Global Heritage Fund says these places are important because they are records of our human civilization. And the group says countries can learn to use these treasures to help support responsible development in the future.
One such place is the town of Lamu. Lamu was once a very important trading center in East Africa. This ancient city became part of the United Nations World Heritage list in 2001. But it still faces threats. For example, a modern port might be built nearby.
Other endangered places include Ani, a city in Turkey, the town of Maluti in India, the ancient city of Ninevah in northern Iraq, the Sans-Souci palace in Haiti, and the former capital of Ayutthaya in Thailand.
The Global Heritage Fund is a nonprofit (非盈利的) organization based in California. The group says it only focuses on developing countries which often have few resources to protect places of cultural importance. And, other major cultural organizations often pay more attention to protecting places in the developed world. For example, the fund points out that the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has forty-five World Heritage places in Italy. UNESCO has forty-two in Spain. But Peru,famous for its ancient Incan buildings, has only nine World Heritage places. Guatemala has only three.
The Global Heritage Fund says its new report tries to place a value on cultural places so that they can also be considered as economic resources. It estimates that by 2025, these places of cultural importance could produce one hundred billion dollars a year in income for developing countries.
【文章大意】 全球文化遗产基金会公布了发展中国家一些面临消亡险境的古文化城市,基金会正在设法保护这些文化城市。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
The research carried out by the University of Bari in Italy could help prove hospitals who are accused of wasting money on art and decoration as it suggests a pleasant environment helps patients ease discomfort and pain.
A team headed by Professor Marina de Tommaso at the Neurophysiopathology Pain Unit asked a group of men and women to pick the 20 paintings they considered most ugly and most beautiful from a selection of 300 works by artists such as Leonardo da Vinci and Sandro Botticelli.They were then asked to look at either the beautiful paintings,or the ugly paintings,or a blank panel while the team zapped(照射)a short laser pulse at their hand,creating a sensation as if they had been stuck by a pin.The subjects rated the pain as being a third less intense while they were viewing the beautiful paintings,compared with when looking at the ugly paintings or the blank panel.Electrodes measuring the brain's electrical activity also confirmed a reduced response to the pain when the subject looked at beautiful paintings.
While distractions,such as music,are known to reduce pain in hospital patients,Prof de Tommaso says this is the first result to show that beauty plays a part.
The findings,reported in New Scientist,also go a long way to show that beautiful surroundings could aid the healing process.
“Hospitals have been designed to be functional,but we think that their artistic aspects should be taken into account too,” said the neurologist.“Beauty obviously offers a distraction that ugly paintings do not.But at least there is no suggestion that ugly surroundings make the pain worse.I think these results show that more research is needed into the field how a beautiful environment can alleviate suffering.”
Pictures they liked included Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh and Botticelli's Birth of Venus.Pictures they found ugly included works by Pablo Picasso,the Italian 20th century artist Anonio Bueno and Columbian Fernando Botero.“These people were not art experts so some of the pictures they found ugly would be considered masterpieces by the art world,” said Prof de Tommaso.
1.The underlined word “alleviate” in the 5th paragraph probably means “________”.
A.cure B.ease C.improve D.kill
答案 B [词义猜测题。根据文章的第一段最后一句as it suggests a pleasant environment helps patients ease discomfort and pain可以得出本题的答案为ease(缓解,减轻),而不是“治愈”“消灭”或“增加”。]
2.How many artists have been mentioned in the passage?
A.4. B.5. C.6. D.7.
答案 C [数字计算题。本文提到的艺术家有Leonardo da Vinci,Sandro Botticelli,Vincent Van Gogh,Pablo Picasso,Anonio Bueno,Columbian Fernando Botero六人。]
3.From the last paragraph,we know that________.
A.some artists' paintings were beautiful,so they were masterpieces
B.only art experts could judge they were masterpieces or not,though ugly
C.the artists mentioned above were not really art masters
D.some of them were art masters,while others were not
答案 B [推理判断题。本段的最后一句的意思为:这些人不是艺术家,所以一些他们认为难看的作品其实都是世界名作。]
4.Which of the following is the suitable title for the passage?
A.Beautiful surroundings can ease pain
B.Ugly paintings could be masterpieces
C.More research should be done in the field
D.Latest environmental research
答案 A [主旨大意题。根据全文内容和研究结果可知,本题答案为A。B、C只是研究结果中的一部分,不能概括全文。D的范围过大。]
V.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
