参考答案与解析
一、单项选择。
1. C
【解析】句意：但是，没有人发现过太空中的任何生命。动词discover意为“发现”，A意为“已经被发现”，B意为“过去发现”，C和D意为“已经发现”，yet意为“还未”，通常与现在完成时have/has done搭配使用，排除B，这里是想说“没有人发现过……”，不需要使用被动语态，排除A，主语是no one，看作第三人称单数主语，所以选用助动词has，故选C。
2. C
【解析】句意：我叔叔昨天晚上9点到达机场。A. arrived是不及物动词，后接宾语时要用介词at或in；B. got是不及物动词，后接宾语时要用介词to；C. reached是及物动词，后直接接宾语；D. appeared出现。句子My uncle _______ the airport at 9:00 pm yesterday.中的the airport前，没有任何介词，因此用动词reach。故选C。
3. C
【解析】句意：这人经常旅行，上周发现了一个新岛屿。A. touched触摸；B. built建造；C. discovered发现；D. produced生产。discover是指通过有意识地寻找或查询，发现某种已经存在的现象或事物。根据句子The man travels a lot and _______ a new island last week.中的a new island可知，一个新岛屿是本来就存在的，因此用discovered“发现”，符合语境。故选C。
4. B
【解析】句意：王先生的房子比李先生的离机场远。A. far远，原级；B. farther比较远，比较级；C. farthest最远的，最高级；D. the farthest最远的，最高级。本题有比较连词than，因此应该用比较级，排除A/C/D；故选B。
5. B
【解析】句意：—你做完作业了吗？—是的，我刚做完。考查固定用法：现在完成时中，already和yet都可以表示“已经”的意思。两者区别主要如下：already用于肯定句，放在句中或句尾。yet用于否定句或疑问句中，放在句尾，因此第一个空填yet；根据答语I have _______ finished it.可知，第二个空用just，表示“我刚做完。”故选B。
6. B
【解析】句意：我们想在互联网上搜索一些有关奥运会的信息。search for“搜寻，查找”，符合语境，故选B。
7. B
【解析】考查动词词义辨析。travel旅游; discover发现; look看; invent发明。句意: 我们都盼望着那一天, 科学家们能够发现更多宇宙的奥秘。故选B。
8. A
【解析】考查交际用语。句意: —打扰一下, 你能回答这个问题吗 —没问题。我认为我知道那个答案。故选A。
9. A
【解析】考查固定短语。in order to意为“为了”, 后跟动词原形; so that和in order that也意为“为了”, 但后面跟从句。句意: 他为了在这个城市生存, 不得不寻找另一份工作。空后跟make原形, 故选A。
10. B
【解析】句意：—Sue，你完成你的作业了吗？—是的，做作业花了我一个小时时间。考查动词辨析。spent 花费（主语为人）；took 花费（通常用于主语为it的句型中）；cost 花费（主语为物）；paid 支付。It takes/took sb. some time to do sth. “做某事花费某人多长时间”。故选B。
11. A
【解析】句意：—Mike已经来了吗？—是的，他已经到这儿十分钟了。考查副词。yet 已经（用于否定句和疑问句中）；already 已经（用于肯定句中）。第一空在一般疑问句中，第二空在肯定句句中。故选A。
12. A
【解析】本题考查交际用语中的固定用法。be up to用来表示“正在做某事，正忙于某事”，尤其用于口语中，询问最近正在做的事情。故选A。
13. B
【解析】have/has gone(to)意为“已去某地了”，强调人不在说话的地方；have/has been (to)意为“已去过某地”，强调人不在已去过的地方。根据答句中He will come back in a few days.可知选B。
14. D
【解析】句意：—你在做什么？—我正在给妈妈做生日贺卡。A. How is your mum你妈妈怎么样；B. How will you do that你会怎么做？C. What do you want to do你想做什么；D. What are you up to你在做什么？由下文的答语“I’m making a birthday card for Mum.我正在给妈妈做生日贺卡。”可知，上文应该用What are you up to来问。故选D。
