24.结合上下文可知,如果你推迟到周末或者甚至到考试之前,你将会有很多事要做。have sth. to do 意为“有某事要做”,应用动词不定式,用主动表示被动。故B项符合题意。have sb./sth. do sth. 意为“使某人/物做某事(指一次性的具体动作)”,动作由宾语发出;have sth. doing sth. 意为“使某人/物一直处于某种状态”,常接一段时间作状语,动作由宾语发出;无 have sb./sth. did 的搭配。均不符合题意。故正确答案为B。

32.tourists
33.awake
34.illness
35.keeper
【解析】
31.句意:在我们的社会里无家可归的人需要关爱和保护。
因为“and”表示并列,连接两个相同词性的单词,所以空格单词的词性和care是一样的。care关心是名词。protect保护,动词要转化为名词,需要加后缀ion。故答案填protection。
32.句意:这个村庄有名气。每年成千上万的游客来这里参观。
come to visit 是谓语,谓语前缺少主语。tour旅游,动词。它转化为名词表示游客,需要加后缀ist。thousands of成千上万后跟可数名词复数形式。tourist是可数名词所以要变复数形式。故答案填tourists。
33.句意:昨晚到12点我都还醒着。
stay保持,后跟形容词表示处于某种状态。wake醒着,是动词。它转化为形容词前面要加a,表示醒着的。故答案填awake。
34.句意:他奶奶去医院了,她的病是如此严重。
句子成分分析:is 是系动词,so serious是表语。主系表结构句子缺少主语。因此her后缺少名词。ill生病的,形容词,转化为名词要加后缀ness,be动词is说明该名词是单数。故答案填illness。
35.句意:上礼拜,我哥哥在动物园找了份饲养员的工作。
冠词a说明空格单词的词性是可数名词单数形式,job说明是职业名词。keep保持是动词,它转化为职业名词词尾加er表示饲养员。故答案填keeper。
36.achieved her dream
37.live up to
38.the force of nature
39.feel free
40.with excitement
【解析】
36.实现梦想achieve one’s dream,她的her。根据“After two years hard work”和意思可知她的梦想已经实现,所以用一般过去时态。故答案填achieved her dream。

38.自然nature,力量force是不可数名词,“…的”用介词of表示。故答案填the force of nature。
39.随便做……feel free to,根据“please…to ask”可知这是个祈使句,please后跟动词原形,表示请……故答案填feel free。
40.句子成分分析:she是主语,ran over to是谓语,her是宾语。主谓宾成分完整,缺少状语。兴奋地短语with excitement,excitement不可数名词。故答案填with excitement。
六.Saving Tigers
Have you visited zoos? Have you seen tigers in the zoos? I think a tiger is one of the most popular animals in the zoo. But now there are only about 3200 tigers in the world, and the amount of them is reducing. What caused them to reduce? Because many trees are cut down and they have no place to live in.
