三、单项选择
1. D。句意:未经允许就进入老师的办公室是不礼貌的。作“礼貌”讲时应用manners, bad manners 指没有礼貌。
2. D。考查固定短语。根据“他太固执了”可知,“我”没有说服自己的父亲,因此用in vain, 表示“徒劳”。at ease “轻松自如”;in trouble “处于困境中”;on purpose “故意地,有意地”。
3. C。考查动词辨析。句意:“先生,您有什么需要吗?”“我需要一个带浴室的房间,多少钱?”charge意为“要价,收费”,符合语意。
4. B。句意:赶快下来,这把椅子不够平稳,你不能站在上面。steady“平稳的,稳定的”,符合题意。shabby“低劣的;肮脏破烂的”;swift“快速的”;smooth“光滑的”。
5. D。句意:在发言中我试图表达我们对他的感激之情。convey表示“传达,表达”。
6. B。句意:他们昨晚睡得很晚,现在仍在睡觉,不要打搅他们。disturb “打搅”,符合题意。
7. C。句意:据说,一位有经验的工人主管那项工程。in charge of“负责,主管”,主语往往是人;in the charge of“由……负责,由……主管”,主语往往是物。experienced“有经验的”;skilled 熟练的。
8. C。hang on “坚持”;hang about “闲逛”;hang up“挂断电话”;hang onto “保留,保存”。句意:学好英语不容易,但是只要你坚持不懈,最后会成功的。
9. A。句意:尽管他们非常年轻,我们对他们一视同仁。treat...as...“把……当作……”;consider ...to be/as ...“认为……是……”。
10. D。考查动词辨析。句意:走廊里特别黑,因此他划了一根火柴。burn “烧,烧焦”;hit“打,击打”;crash “碰撞,(商业公司,政府等)破产,垮台”;strike “打,撞击,冲击,罢工,划燃”。
11. C。recommend 后面的宾语从句中,谓语应用(should) do 的形式,所以答案为C项。
12. C。考查形容词辨析。句意为:“他突然做出去加拿大的决定不正常,因为他此前从来没有提起过。”ugly丑陋的;emotional感情的;abrupt突然的;angry生气的。
13. B。句意:在最近一次煤矿事故中,只有24位矿工得救了,还有29位被困在地下。空白处要用过去分词形式trapped作补足语,与主语是被动关系,意为“被困在……中”。
14. D。句意:他很幸运地被北京大学录取了,在中国有许多优秀的学生在那里学习。admit sb. to sp. 结构的被动式为sb. be admitted to sp.。
15. A。独立主格结构some having a life...作状语,having的逻辑主语是前面的some。D项时态有误。
16. C。“被单独留下或不能一起玩情绪易低落(depressed)”所涉及到的是情感方面的问题,所以空白处选C,affection表示“情感、喜爱”。movement 运动,活动;action 行动,功能;invitation 邀请,请柬。
17. D。由题意可知“许可证一定是从口袋里掉了出去”。表示已经发生的事情,用“情态动词+have done”,因此排除A、B两项;should have done 表示“本应该做而实际上未做”,不符合语境;must have done 表示“一定做了……”符合语境,故选D。
18. B。句意:地震后我们可以看到村庄的废墟。ruin作“废墟”讲时,要用复数形式;damage和destroy意为“破坏”,是动词。
19. B。句意:虽然她已经有了两个女儿,但她本人有时也会像个孩子一样的天真无邪。innocence为名词,意为“天真、单纯”。
20. C。be keen on 是固定搭配,意为“喜爱,对……有兴趣”。根据句意和句中的but表明要填的词与前面的object to(反对)意思相反的词,所以选C。其他选项不能与on搭配。warm 温暖的;eager (for) 渴望的;interested (in) (对……)感兴趣的。
