2011年高考课标版英语课堂45分钟练习
Ⅰ.语法和词汇知识
1—You ______ some new ideas
—Yeah.I'll tell you later.
A.come about B.come into C.come up with D.come out with
解析:come about“发生”;come into“进入;得到”;come up with“想出”;come out with“发表,公布,说出”。句意:——你想出新的主意了吗?——是的,我过会儿告诉你。
答案:C
2—John is such a stupid guy that he failed every exam.
—Sorry,I won't agree.He is ______ than stupid.
A.lazier B.no lazier C.more lazy D.lazier rather
解析:考查形容词。句意:——约翰是如此愚笨的学生以至于每次考试都不及格。——我不完全赞同,与其说他愚笨倒不如说他懒惰。句式more+adj./n.+than+adj./n.表示“与其说……倒不如说……”。
答案:C
3______,he can help his mother with a lot of housework.
A.A small boy as he is
B.Though a small boy he is
C.Small boy although he is
D.Small boy though he is
解析:as/though 引导的让步状语从句中,表语、状语常放在句首。如果表语是单数可数名词,冠词a/an通常省略。句意:尽管他是个小男孩,但能帮助母亲做很多活。
答案:D
4______ good use you made of your time to study,there is still room for improvement.
A.However B.Whatever C.Though D.That
解析:句意:不管你多么充分利用了学习时间,仍然还有进步的余地。因为use是名词,故选B项。however后面接形容词或副词。
答案:B
5Some wild animals,______ tigers and pandas,are in danger of dying out.
A.such as B.as such C.like such D.as
解析:such as...用来列举部分事物。通常放在被列举事物的前面以及需要说明的事物的后面,意思是“比如;诸如……之类的”,可与like互换,as后面不能有逗号。从后面的tigers and pandas可知,这里表示部分列举,故选A项。
答案:A
6Now that I know ______,I understand why they needed so much money.
A.what a hard life they lived
B.they led what a hard life
C.what they lived a hard life
D.how hard a life did they lead
解析:此题考查宾语从句的语序。a hard life为名词短语,故用what修饰,what是引导词,故要放在从句的前面,因为是宾语从句,要用陈述语序,故选A项。
答案:A
7You must ______ at the lawyer's office at noon.
A.present
B.present itself
C.present yourself
D.be present to
解析:present oneself“出席;到场”。句意:你必修立刻到律师办公室。若选D项,应去掉to。

A.which to be based on
B.upon which to base
C.which to base upon
D.to which to be based

答案:B
10—Better get down to your work,Charles.
—Julia,______.
A.It's my pleasure
B.Not to mention it
C.Mind your own business
D.You're welcome
解析:考查交际用语。it's my pleasure和you're welcome是对别人的感谢的回答,表示“不用谢”“这没什么”;not to mention it含义为“不用提它”;mind your own business含义为“别多管闲事”。根据题干上句的含义:查尔斯,你最好开始工作。查尔斯肯定不会说“不用谢”或“不用提这事”。故选C项。
答案:C

History abounds(有许多) with tales of specialists who thought that the ideas,plans,and projects of others could never be achieved.__1__,success came to those who say,“I can make it happen.”
The Italian__2__Agostino d'Antonio worked hard on a large piece of marble.Unable to produce his__3__masterpiece,he said sadly,“I can do nothing with it.” But Michelangelo discovered the stone and __4__ the possibilities in it.His “I can make it happen” attitude __5__ one of the world's masterpieces—David.

1A.Therefore B.Instead C.However D.Otherwise
解析:文章第一句话说有许多专家认为很多事情是不可能的,但由下一句的那些成功者的话“我能把它实现”可以看出两句话之间是转折关系,因此选C项。
答案:C
2A.sculptor B.professor C.painter D.expert
解析:由这一句话提到的“一块大理石”,以及后文提到的米开朗琪罗的大卫雕像,可以推测出Agostino d'Antonio是一个雕刻家,因此选A项。
答案:A
3A.desired B.well known C.inspired D.disturbed
解析:masterpiece “杰作”。由下一句话He said sadly,“I can do nothing with it”可以看出他并没有成功,因此这句话的意思是“不能创作出他渴望的杰作”,因此选desired,意思是“渴望的,热望的”。
答案:A
4A.believed B.wished C.expected D.imagined
解析:结合下一句话可以推测出这句话的意思是:“但是米开朗琪罗发现了那块石头,并且看到了成功的可能性”。wish和expect的主观性太浓,都表示主语的主观希望,用在此处不合适。imagine用在此处可以看出米开朗琪罗不仅看到了石头,而且设想出了其中的可能性。
答案:D
5A.called in B.resulted in C.took in D.turned into
解析:result in“导致,最终使成为”;call in“召集,召来”;take in“吸收,理解”;turn into“进入,(使)变成”。联系上下文以及米开朗琪罗的事迹我们知道他最终完成了他的杰作“大卫”,因此选B项。
答案:B
6A.specialists B.officials C.students D.people
解析:文章开头便提出有很多专家认为很多人的想法都是不能实现的,因此推测出此处选A项,表示专家们断定西班牙的哥伦布的计划也是行不通的。
答案:A
7A.unnecessary B.necessary C.impossible D.possible
解析:由前一段作者组织文章的逻辑我们可以推测出此处应该也是一种对比,而且由本段的最后一句话也可以看出此处说的是专家们都不相信哥伦布的方案是可行的。此外,通过对比,把哥伦布不服输的精神刻画得淋漓尽致。
答案:C
8A.doubted B.laughed C.wondered D.insisted
解析:doubt“怀疑”;laugh“大笑”;wonder“想知道”;insist“坚持”。从“I can make it happen”的语气可以看出哥伦布“坚持”的态度。
答案:D
9A.round B.flat C.big D.small
解析:那个时候人们都认为地球是平的,只有哥伦布不这么认为,因此他想找到到达西印度群岛的最短途径。
答案:B
10A.Yet B.Even C.Still D.But
解析:由本段的第二句话可以看出爱迪生认为福特的想法是毫无价值的,由此可以推测出此段组织的结构仍与前两段相同,采用对比手法,与前两段的衔接并不存在任何转折。众所周知,爱迪生是伟大的发明家,甚至他也反对福特的想法,因此even表示语气上的强调。
答案:B
11A.discouraged B.prevented C.protected D.encouraged
解析:由本段的第二句话可以看出爱迪生并不支持福特的想法,但并不能认为有他阻止福特想造汽车的做法。只是“不支持,劝他不要这样做”,因此用discouraged。
答案:A
12A.opinion B.knowledge C.idea D.information
解析:opinion“主张,看法”,通常指某人的意见或建议;knowledge“知识”,指通过学习而获得的有益的知识。汽车是由福特发明的,在他之前没有任何这方面的知识可言;idea“想法,点子”,多用于表述新奇的想法;information“信息”。这里指他想发明汽车这个想法,故选C项。
答案:C
13A.for B.of C.with D.about
解析:convinced 与of 连用,是固定搭配,意思是“确信某事”。
答案:B
14A.If B.As C.Until D.Although
解析:这一句的“he could make it happen”与前面的“failed”构成让步关系,意思是:虽然他的第一次尝试失败了。因此选D项。
答案:D
15A.wondered B.knew C.guessed D.imagined
解析:由前一句“Ford said no and continued to tirelessly pursue his dream”我们可以看出福特决不会轻易放弃他的想法,因此我们可以推测出他的态度。句意:“尽管他的第一次尝试失败了,但是亨利·福特仍然相信他能够成功”。这里knew的语气表明了福特想成功的决心。
答案:B
16A.no doubt B.in time C.of course D.once more
解析:no doubt“毫无疑问”;in time“及时”;of course“当然”;once more“再一次”。本文的主题是:“我能行”的态度决定了成功的结果。这里选of course 表示福特的成功在意料之中。
答案:C
17A.as B.since C.before D.after
解析:as“当……的时候”。结合下一分句我们可以看出此处选as表示时间,能够更好地衔接上下文。句意:“最后,当你在美好的灯光下读这篇文章的时候,不妨想一下当时富兰克林的艰难处境。”
答案:A
18A.warmth B.feeling C.comfort D.lighting
解析:由本段的第二句话我们可以看出这段话叙述的是富兰克林的事迹,因此选lighting与这一句相照应,而且能更好地开启下文。
答案:D
19A.difficult B.unfair C.mysterious D.strange
解析:由下一句“He was advised to stop foolishly experimenting with lighting.”,我们可以看出富兰克林当时的处境是很艰难的,因此选A项。
答案:A
20A.worse B.better C.brighter D.darker
解析:由前一句话“What a waste of time!”以及这一句话中的why可以推测出这里叙说的是与富兰克林同时代人的想法,显然当时的人们认为油灯就很好了。句意:“没有什么比油灯更好的了。”,因此用better更为贴切。
答案:B

1.词数:120左右;
2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
3.参考词汇:贫瘠的 barren
参考范文:
This summer I had a travel in a desert and I was struck by the beauty of it.But I saw a TV program on desertification the other day and realized that this is a growing problem.It appears that very few people understand how serious this problem is.So it is important that world attention is drawn to desertification,and that we should all work together to stop it.
Desertification has come about largely as a result of farming activities.Huge amounts of trees have been cut down in order to meet people's needs of daily life.Unfortunately,as trees have been cut down,the wind has blown away the soil,leaving the land barren.Therefore,we need to return farmland to forest,and control population growth.
