A.has gone,has gone B.has been,has been

【分析】我的叔叔已经去过北京许多次了.现在他又再次去那了.他将在2天后回来.
【解答】has been 去过某地(现已回来);has gone 去了某地(还未回来).第一个空格后many times,可知,是去过很多次,现在已回来,所以第一个空格填has been,排除A和D选项.根据"他将在2天后回来",可知,现在又去了,还未回来,所以第二个空格填has gone.

【解答】答案:B 根据前后语境并结合选项,考查alone;lonely用法.alone可以作形容词,也可以作副词,意为单独;独自;而lonely只可以作形容词,意为"内心孤独的".根据句中关键词live为动词,所以要用副词alone来修饰,意为单独住在小房子里;根据关键词feel是一个感官系动词,后面应跟形容词lonely,意为感到孤独的.综合以上分析,
故选:B。
【点评】此题考查alone和lonely的用法及区别.做题时一定要从它们的用法出发,包括词性,具体的意义上的区别等,再结合句子的关键词使用其正确的形式.这两个词是易混词,也是考查的重点,要求学生一定要重视,彻底弄懂.
22.(1分)﹣ did your uncle leave his hometown?
﹣He for nearly twenty years.(  )
A.When; has left
B.When; has been away
C.How long; has left
D.How long; has been away
【分析】﹣﹣你的叔叔离开家乡有多久了?
﹣﹣他离开将近20年了.
【解答】第一个空,leave"离开"短暂性动词.How long后面的动词应该用延续性动作.C、D不正确.第二个空,for nearly twenty years表持续了将近二十年,故应将短暂性动词转换为延续性动词be away,主语为He为第三人称单数形式,结合现在完成时结构故为has been away.A不正确.
故选:B.
【点评】此题考查考生根据答语选择合适的疑问词的能力及现在完成时中延续性动词与非延续性动词之间的转换.现在完成时是中考的必考点,需特别注意.
23.(1分)What a hot day! Would you please get me some drinks?

【分析】这段短文主要讲述了关于"666"表情符号在微信上的使用情况。该表情符号在2020年底在微信上流行起来。它在中国和西方微信用户中越来越受欢迎,但原因不同。该表情符号展示了一个嘿嘿笑的脸,举起中国手势中的"6",旁边是"666"。在中国,该表情符号有积极的含义,因为汉字"六"的发音和"六六大顺"相似,人们用它来表达对朋友或亲戚的美好祝愿。但在一些西方国家,"666"有着非常负面的意义,据说它是"兽的印记",魔鬼要求人们佩戴它来显示对他的忠诚,尽管它与人们的祝愿无关。这就是为什么一些人认为这个数字是不吉利的象征的原因。但我们都知道魔鬼并不存在,现代人并不真的认真对待它。作为一个音乐人,我对中国文化也很感兴趣。我喜欢这个新的表情符号,因为它可以发送给我的中国朋友或西方朋友,得到不同的反应。
【解答】(1)考查短语。句意:"666"表情于2020年底在微信上出现。checked out检查;handed out交出;gave out发出;come out出现。根据"on WeChat at the end of 2020"(于2020年底在微信上)可知,此处介绍这个表情出现的时间,故选D。
(2)考查形容词。句意:它在中国和西方微信用户中都很受欢迎,但原因不同。proper正确的;beautiful漂亮的;popular受欢迎的;interesting感兴趣的。根据" among both Chinese and Western WeChat users"(中国和西方微信用户中都)可知,变得很受欢迎,故选C。
(3)考查名词。句意:它展示了一个傻笑的脸,举着中国的手势"6",旁边是数字"666"。number数字;smile微笑;question问题;performance表演。根据" '666' next to it"(旁边是"666")可知,旁边是一组"666"的数字,故选A。
(4)考查形容词。句意:人们用它来表达向朋友或亲戚表达美好愿望的原因。bad坏的;good好的;strong强壮的;unfair不公平的。根据"The emoji has an active meaning"(这个表情符号有积极的含义)可知这个表情有积极意义,应是送上美好祝福。故选B。
(5)考查形容词。句意:但在一些西方国家,"666"有着非常不同的含义。similar相似的;proper合适的;important重要的;different不同的。根据"It is said '666' was the 'Mark of the Beast'."(据说"666"是"野兽的标记"。)可知,此处介绍这个的不同意义,故选D。
(6)考查动词。句意:魔鬼强迫人们戴着它,以显示他们的忠诚,尽管这是违背人们的意愿。advised建议;invited邀请;forced迫使;reminded提醒。根据"The devil …people to wear it"(魔鬼......人们戴着它)可知,强迫人们戴着它,故选C。
(7)考查介词。句意:魔鬼强迫人们戴着它,以显示他们的忠诚,尽管这是违背人们的意愿。against违背;under在……下;from从;for为了。根据"The devil forced people to wear it"(魔鬼强迫人们戴着它)可知,此处指违背人们的意愿,故选A。
(8)考查副词。句意:这就是为什么有些人认为这个数字是坏运气的象征。who谁;why为什么;what什么;how如何。根据语境这就是为什么有些人认为这个数字是坏运气的象征。故选B。
(9)考查形容词。句意:现代没人把它当回事。ancient古老的;modern现代的;bad差的;early早的。根据"But we all know that the devil isn't real"(但我们都知道魔鬼是不存在的。)可知,恶魔这个说法不是真实的所以现代人不这么认为,故选B。
