答案以及解析
一、单选题
1.答案:C
解析:根据"…great progress Peter has made in this term!"可知,句子为感叹句,由于"great progress"为名词短语,故第一空用What;根据"He is one of the top students in our class now."可知他确实做到了,"某人确实…"的英文表达为"so+主语+谓语"。故选C。
2.答案:A
解析:设空处所在句是包含宾语从句的主从复合句,要遵循"主过从必过"原则,即主句的时态为一般过去时时,从句的时态必须使用过去时态的一种。根据主句的谓语动词warned可知,从句时态应该用过去将来时,而且是"取消"这次会议。故选A。
3.答案:D
解析:根据"for half a year"可知,本句时态是现在完成时,时间段与现在完成时连用时,谓语应为延续性动词;fall in love with是短暂性动词短语,此处应用延续性动词短语be in love with,即空格处应为has been。故选D。
4.答案:D
解析:句意:我的父母都喜欢孩子,因为他们认为孩子很活泼。live活的;living活着的;alive活着的;lively活泼的。根据题干可知,此处指小孩子活泼可爱,故选D。
5.答案:A
解析:a一个,一类,不定冠词,用于辅音音素开头的单词前;an一个,一类,不定冠词,用于元音音素开头的单词前;the这,定冠词,表特指;/表示零冠词。此处表示一个或一类,要用不定冠词,又因one-hour是以辅音音素开头的单词,故选A。

13.答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据"Badly behaved British teens are sent abroad to live with a super strict family for a week."可知,在World's Strictest Parents这档节目中,孩子需要在严格的寄宿家庭里待上一周而不是一年,D选项错误。故选D。
14.答案:A

答案:
The Changes of TV Viewing Habits
With the development of science, people's TV viewing habits have changed a lot over the years.
In the past, people could only watch programmes on TV. There were fewer programmes and they were covered at a fixed time. People didn't have many choices.
But now there're different types of programmes and most of them are very wonderful. People can watch them on computers or smart phones. Whenever they want to, they can watch what they like.
I think people can choose to watch their favourite programmes at any time. But each coin has two sides. Some short videos aren't good for teenagers. Sometimes it's a waste of time.
