A.do shout B.have shouted

A.suitable B.convenient
C.accurate D.available
解析:选D。句意为:——Samuel,你今天下午有没有空?——视情况而定,我恐怕要看NBA。available“可用的;空闲的”;suitable“适合的”;convenient“便利的;不远的”。convenient用来指“事”,不用来修饰“人”,故其主语通常不是表示“人”的名词或代词。如果表达“如果你方便的话,在你方便的时候”时,要用if/when/whenever it is convenient to/for you。
6.The father as well as his three children ________skating on the frozen river every Sunday afternoon in winter.
A.is going B.go
C.goes D.are going
解析:选C。本题考查主谓一致。由时间状语every Sunday afternoon可判断应用一般现在时,所以排除A、D。在A as well as B+v.结构中谓语动词与A一致。The father是单数,所以选goes。与as well as有相似用法的词还有including,together with,along with,except,besides等。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
The U.S.Postal Service delivers(递送)mail through rain and snow.But people who look forward to receiving mail on Saturdays may soon be disappointed.In order to cut costs,Postmaster General John Potter has suggested reducing mail delivery by one day per week.
From 2008 to 2009,the amount of mail in the United States dropped by nearly 26 billion pieces.The main reasons for the decline(下降)have nothing to do with bad weather or barking dogs.In the Internet age,many people are choosing e mail over writing letters.They are paying bills online instead of mailing checks(支票).
The weak economy and serious competition from private carriers,such as FedEx and UPS,have also led to the decline.As a result,the Postal Service lost $3.8 billion last year.On March 2,Potter delivered more bad news:Without major changes,the Postal Service may lose $238 billion over the next 10 years.
Not everyone is for the idea.“Saturday is an important delivery day,”Jason Chaffetz told The Washington Post.Instead of cutting Saturday service,Chaffetz suggests creating postal“holidays”on the slowest delivery days each year.He says that cutting Saturday service will delay(推迟)important deliveries,such as medicines.And people without computers don’t have the choice of paying bills online.
Supporters of the plan say it is a difficult but important step.The Postal Service projects that cutting one day of deliveries per week could save $3.5 billion per year.Many Americans are behind the new postal plan.In a 2009 Gallup Poll,66 percent of people surveyed said they were for reducing delivery from six days to five to help the Postal Service balance its budget(开支).Some supporters say getting used to a new delivery schedule would not be a problem for most people.They also say that people who need Saturday delivery could use private carriers.
【解题导语】 本文主要讨论人们对美国邮政服务公司取消周六快递派送服务决定的看法。
1.The U.S.Postal Service cancels Saturday’s delivery to ________.
A.reduce regular mails
B.cut down expense
C.give carriers enough time to rest
D.improve its service
解析:选B。细节理解题。第一段第三句即提出“In order to cut costs...”,由此可知,公司取消周六派送服务是为了节省开支,故B选项正确。
2.The amount of mail in the US declined from 2008 to 2009 because of all the following EXCEPT ________.
A.bad weather
B.hot competition
C.the poor economy
D.the development of the Internet
解析:选A。细节理解题。由第二段中的The main reasons for the decline(下降)have nothing to do with bad weather or barking dogs可知,天气因素不是邮件总量下降的原因。
3.According to the passage,Jason Chaffetz ________.
A.has no computers at home
B.is complaining about slow delivery of the Postal Service
C.is disappointed about cutting Saturday service
D.insists the Postal Service deliver mail every day
解析:选C。细节理解题。由第四段中的Saturday is an important delivery day及Instead of cutting Saturday service,Chaffetz suggests creating postal“holidays”on the slowest delivery days each year.可知,Chaffetz认为周六的快递派送非常重要,取消周六的快递派送服务是不合适的。
4.We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A.reducing delivery from six days to five doesn’t make much difference
B.few Americans are for the new postal plan of the Postal Service
C.few people are willing to use private carriers in the US
D.a lot of people are wishing the Postal Service a good future
解析:选D。推理判断题。由最后一段中的66 percent of people surveyed said they were for reducing delivery from six days to five to help the Postal Service balance its budget可以推断,大部分美国人是希望美国邮政服务公司能保持收支平衡,希望它以后能有更好的未来。

A.possible B.likely
C.able D.alike
解析:选B。本题考查词义辨析。句意:将近10点了,爸爸随时都有可能回来。able有能力的;alike相像的,都不符合语境。possible和likely都可表示“可能”,possible的主语不能是人,故选B。
2.(2011年池州高二检测)________,I passed the most difficult exam I have ever had.
A.It’s my pleasure
B.To my disappointment
C.To my delight
D.To my anger
解析:选C。考查短语辨析。根据语境“我通过了我所参加的最难的一次考试”,我应该高兴。排除B项和D项。而It’s my pleasure意为“很高兴这么做”,常用作Thank you的答语。
3.(2011年株洲高二检测)________,the young girl laughs in the way ________her mother did at that age.
A.To my disappointment;that
B.To my joy;in which
C.To my surprise;/

A.furnishing;convenience
B.furnishing;conveniences
C.furnished;convenience
D.furnished;conveniences
解析:选D。句意:据说他住在英国一个装备有现代化便利设施的房子中。be furnished with装备有,配备着;convenience作“便利设施;带来方便的装置”时是可数名词。

—Because the old one has been damaged ________.
A.beyond reach B.beyond repair
C.beyond control D.beyond description
解析:选B。句意:——你为什么建议我们买一台新机器呢?——因为旧的那台已经损坏得无法修理了。A“无法到达”;B“无法修理”;C“无法控制”;D“无法描述”。结合语境可知应选B项。
6.On hearing the news that her husband was killed by Pakistani separatists, the wife________.
A.broke away B.broke out
C.broke down D.broke up
解析:选C。考查动词词组辨析。break away脱离,背叛;break out(战争,火灾,瘟疫等)突然爆发;break down(身体)垮下来,恸哭;break up结束,粉碎。根据句意,“听到丈夫被巴基斯坦分裂组织所杀,妻子情不自禁地哭起来。”应选C。
7.—Why do you look sad
—There are so many problems ________.
A.remaining to settle
B.remained settling
C.remaining to be settled
D.remained to be settled
解析:选C。解答该题的关键在于要准确把握there be结构及系动词remain的用法。remain在there be结构中作后置定语,由于remain是不及物动词,故应用现在分词remaining,相当于定语从句that remain;动词settle置于remain之后,应用动词不定式的被动结构表示动作还未完成。
8.He kept his eyes ________and stayed where he was.
A.shut B.to be shut
C.shutting D.to shut
解析:选A。本题考查“keep+宾语+宾补”表示“使……处于某种状态”。由于eyes与shut之间为动宾关系,故用过去分词形式作宾补。
9.It seems strange that the rich woman who owns a company________vegetables in a market every weekend.
A.sells B.has sold
C.should sell D.should have sold
解析:选C。考查句子的结构。在“It is/seems+形容词+that...”结构中,当表示出乎意料、不可思议的情况时,主语从句中的谓语动词用“should+动词原形”,其中should不可以省略,表示“竟然”的意思。
10.________attracts most of the visitors to the park is that there is a special kind of water from a spring tasting sweet.
A.Which B.What
C.That D.Why
解析:选B。考查主语从句的关联词。what引导主语从句,作从句的主语,表示“吸引游客的事情”。

Ⅴ.阅读理解
The report came to the British on May 21,1941.The German battleship Bismarck,the most powerful warship in the world,was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean.Her task:to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war torn England.
The British had feared such a task.No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower.The Bismarck had eight 15 inch guns and 81 smaller guns.She could move at 30 nautical miles(海里)an hour.She was believed to be unsinkable.
However,the British had to sink her.They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck.On May 24,the Hood found the Bismarck.
It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see.His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies,but to stay away from a fight with British warships.
The battle didn’t last long.The Bismarck’s first torpedo(鱼雷)hit the Hood,which went down taking all but three of her 1,419 men with her.
But in the fight,the Bismarck was slightly damaged.Her commander decided to run for repairs to France,which had at that time been taken by the Germans.The British force followed her.However,because of the Bismarck’s speed and the heavy fog,they lost sight of her.
For two days,every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck,but with no success.Finally,she was sighted by a plane from Ireland.Trying to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her,the British fired at her from the air.The Bismarck was hit.
On the morning of May 27,the last battle was fought.Four British ships fired on the Bismarck,and she was finally sunk.
【解题导语】 战争是残酷的。二次世界大战中的1941年5月,威力巨大的德国战舰Bismarck为了截断美国对英国的供应,与英国战舰进行了一场殊死搏斗。Bismarck击沉了英国的Hood号,本身受了轻伤,在返航修理途中遭受英国飞机和舰艇的攻击,最终沉入海底。
1.The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean ________.
A.to sink the Hood
B.to gain control of France
C.to cut off American supplies to Britain
D.to stop British warships reaching Germany
解析:选C。细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句话“Her task:to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war torn England.”可以判断出,德国战舰Bismarck的任务是截断美国对英国的供应。
2.Many people believed that the Bismarck could not be defeated because she ________.
A.was fast and powerful
B.had more men on board
C.was under Luetjens command
D.had bigger guns than other ships
解析:选A。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower.”许多人不相信能够战胜Bismarck的原因是Bismarck具有很强大的战斗力。
3.We learn from the text that on May 24________.
A.the British won the battle against the Bismarck
B.the Bismarck won the battle against the British
C.the British gunfire damaged the Bismarck seriously
D.the Bismarck succeeded in keeping away from the
British
解析:选B。细节理解题。从第五段“The battle didn’t last long.The Bismarck’s first torpedo(鱼雷)hit the Hood,which went down taking all but three of her 1,419 men with her.”可知,Bismarck击败了英国船只。
4.Luetjens tried to sail to France in order to ________.
A.have the ship repaired
B.join the other Germans
C.get help from the French
D.get away from the British
解析:选A。细节理解题。根据第六段“Her commander decided to run for repairs to France”可知A为正确答案。
5.Which of the following is the immediate cause of the sinking of the Bismarck
A.The British air strikes.
B.The damage done by the Hood.
C.Gunfire from the British warships.
D.Luetjen’s decision to run for France.
解析:选C。推理判断题。最后一段说四艘英国战舰对德国军舰开火,最后德国军舰被击沉。Ⅰ.单项填空
1.(2010年高考湖南卷)Listen! Do you hear someone ________ for help
A.calling B.call
C.to call D.called
解析:选A。考查非谓语动词。该空在句中为非谓语动词作宾补,根据 someone与call的主动关系排除D项。hear后接不定式作宾补时应省略to,由此排除C项。由Lhisten可判断此处表示正在求救,故选A项。
2.(2010年高考辽宁卷)Alexander tried to get his work ________ in the medical circles.
A.to recognize B.recognizing
C.recognize D.recognized
解析:选D。句意:亚历山大试图让他的工作在医学领域内得到认可。考查非谓语动词的用法。宾语work和recognize之间存在被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。
3.(2010年高考山东卷)The living room is clean and tidy,with a dining table already ________ for a meal to be cooked.
A.laid B.laying
C.to lay D.being laid
解析:选A。本题考查with复合结构的用法。with复合结构的构成是“with+宾语+宾语补足语”,由于table与lay(放置)之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以空格处用过去分词表示被动。
4.(2010年高考上海卷)Lucy has a great sense of humor and always keeps her colleagues ________ with her stories.
A.amused B.amusing
C.to amuse D.to be amused
解析:选A。本题考查非谓语动词。keep + sb./sth.+ done,根据句意,宾补her colleagues与它后面的动词构成被动关系,故选A。
5.(2009年高考全国卷Ⅱ)They use computers to keep the traffic ________ smoothly.
