Ⅰ.单项填空1.Bruce,with____I was able to get over the mountain,was a university student.A.whom helping B.his helpC.him to help D.whose help答案:D 本题考查的是定语从句。根据题意可知,with I was able to get over the mountain是一个定语从句,且先行词Bruce在从句中作help的定语,故选用whose引导。又因“在某人的帮助下”使用with the help of sb.或with one’s help,而在定语从句中介词with可以提前到关系代词的前边,故答案为D。2.Helen ____her keys in the office so she had to wait until her husband____home.A.has left;comes B.left;had come C.had left;came D.had left;would come答案:C 本题考查的是动词的时态。根据题意得知,had to wait 是过去时,很显然leave动作发生在wait动作之前,应用过去完成时。“直到丈夫回家来”是时间状语从句,要用一般时代替将来时,故选C。3.The purpose of new technologies is to make life easier,____it more difficult.A.not make B.not to makeC.not making D.do not make答案:B 本题考查的是不定式作表语的用法。A项“否定词+动词原形”是谓语动词的否定形式,应排除。B项不定式的否定式和C项动名词的否定式都能作表语,但根据句意和结构,空白处应填一个否定的不定式与前面的不定式并列。故答案为B。4.The Smiths____for a camp in the Australian bush.A.is due B.are due to goC.is due to going D.are due to going答案:B 本题考查主谓一致。The Smiths指“Smith一家人或Smith夫妇”, 是复数形式,因此谓语动词用are,排除A、C两项。be due后接不定式,表示按预定做某事,排除D项。5.The result of the experiment was very good, we hadn’t expected.A.when B.that C.which D.what答案:C 本题考查非限制性定语从句。题意是“这次试验的结果很好,出乎先前所料”,关系代词which作expected的宾语,同时代替前面句子的内容。6.It was an exciting moment for these football fans this year,____for the first time in years their team won the World Cup.A.that B.while C.which D.when答案:D 本题考查定语从句。根据题意和句子的结构,后半句是非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的moment,关系副词when等于at that moment。7.The meat tastes terrible.It appears____bad.A.to go B.having gone C.to have gone D.that went答案:C 本题考查非谓语动词的用法。appear后接不定式,其主语是人或物。该题干中的it代替the meat,是表示物,不是形式主语,因此appears后接动词不定式。由题意可知,“已变质”,是完成的动作,故选C。8.—What were you up to when she dropped in —I____for a while and ____some reading.A.was playing;was going to doB.played;did C.had played;was going to doD.had played;did答案:C 本题考查的是时态。由第一句可判断出第二句描述的事情发生在过去,for a while是相对于when she dropped in来说的,因此该用过去完成时态。后一个动作,承接前面for a while,仍然在过去,因此应用过去将来时,表示过去那个时间将要发生的动作。故选C。9.All the peace-loving people are against America’s bombing Iraq.They think Bush is lifting a stone ____it____on his own feet.A.only to have;dropping B.to have;droppedC.only to have;droppedD.having;dropped答案:C 本题考查的是不定式的用法。only to do表示“反而,却”带来强烈的感彩,have sth.done表示让某事被做,done表示被动。此句的意思是:所有热爱和平的人都反对美国轰炸伊拉克。他们认为布什只不过是搬起石头砸了自己的脚。故选C。10.We found some precious jars and vases in an ancient tomb,____,you know,are valuable.A.even the pieces of whichB.which even piecesC.even the pieces of themD.whose even pieces答案:A 本题考查的是非限制性定语从句。 pieces与some precious jars and vases是从属关系,所以排除B、C项;而D项中even的位置不对,even在此处是副词,不能用于whose与pieces之间。故选A。11.Either you or the headmaster____the prizes to these gifted students at the meeting.A.is handing out B.are to hand outC.are handing out D.is to hand out答案:D 本题考查的是主谓一致问题。英语中由or,either...or...,not only...but also...等连接的并列主语,其谓语动词的数通常遵循就近原则。the headmaster靠近谓语动词,应用单数形式,可排除B、C两项。由题意可知此句是表示将来,be + to do 表将来,故选D。12.Shortly after we____,a writer came over to our table with a smile.A.seated B.were seated C.sat themselves D.took places答案:B 本题考查的是被动语态的用法。因sit是不及物动词,所以排除C项; D项应为took our places。seat是及物动词,意为“使……坐”,又因主句中的came暗示从句时态与过去有关。故选B。13.The teacher as well as a number of students____to attend the party yesterday.A.were asked B.was asked C.were asking D.was asking答案:B 本题考查主谓一致和动词的被动语态。由题意可知应用被动语态,排除C、D两项。 当“A as well as B; A together with B;A besides B; A including B”等结构作主语时, 谓语动词应与A在人称和数上保持一致,故选B项。14.A little girl is crying over there.Let’s go and ask____.A.why is she crying B.why she is cryingC.why are you crying D.why you are crying答案:B 本题考查的是间接引语。在间接引语中,特殊疑问句位置不变,从句使用陈述句语序。根据题意可知,答案应为B。15.I could do anything but____.A.to wait B.wait C.to stay D.stayed答案:B 本题考查的是不定式。介词but后面可以跟动词不定式作宾语。如果谓语动词中有动词do的某种形式时,那么but后的动词不定式应该省去to,否则用to do的形式。根据题意可知,应选B。Ⅱ.将两部分合并为定语从句16.Madame Curie is one of the greatest scientists in the world.She is admired by many people.答案:Madame Curie who is admired by many people is one of the greatest scientists in the world.17.The minerals were unusual.We found them in the rocks.答案:The minerals(which/that) we found in the rocks were unusual.18.The lady is very pleased.You found her suitcase.答案:The lady whose suitcase you found is very pleased.19.I enjoy peaceful days.I have time to think and work on my own then.答案:I enjoy peaceful days when I have time to think and work on my own.20.The experiment failed.She was working on it day and night.答案:The experiment(which/that) she was working on day and night failed.21.The person was my niece.You borrowed her overcoat.答案:The person whose overcoat you borrowed was my niece.22.The doctor always worked heart and soul.He cured me of cancer.答案:The doctor who cured me of cancer always worked heart and soul.23.He used the prize money to pay off his debts.He won it.答案:He used the prize money(which/that) he won to pay off his debts.24.Can you think of a situation You may use this expression in it.答案:Can you think of a situation in which you may use this expression 25.I liked the first high school.I attended it.答案:I liked the first high school(that)I attended.Ⅲ.改正下列句子中的错误26.The laboratory which she carried out her research was on the ground floor.答案:which→where 从句中缺少状语,先行词又为地点名词。27.The youth whom was most willing to help me was a student of yours.答案:whom→who whom为宾格,不能在从句中作主语。28.I did not recognize your friend which came to our graduation party.答案:which→who who可用来代指人,which不可。29.I hate jobs that is endless and boring.答案:is→are 先行词jobs为复数,定语从句谓语部分也应用复数。30.This is the hour that the science museum is full of children.答案:that→when 从句中缺少状语,先行词又为时间名词。Ⅳ.阅读理解Hong Kong has taken over from Tokyo as the world’s most expensive city,according to a lifestyle survey which also shows the gap between the costliest and cheapest cities is narrowing.Moscow takes second place in the survey,published by Mercer Human Resource Consulting,with Tokyo third.At the other end of the scale,Johannesburg replaced Blantyre,Malawi as the cheapest city on the planet.Mercer said the gulf between those at the top and bottom of the pile had narrowed by nearly 15 percent in the 12 months to March 2002.The research took New York as the base city with a score of 100 points.Hong Kong scored 124.2;the South African capital just 34.4.It measured the comparative cost of over 200 items such as housing,food,clothing and household goods as well as transport and enjoyment in 144 cities worldwide.St.Petersburg in Russia and London were the two most expensive cities in Europe,while in the United States,New York was far and away the costliest city,followed by Los Angeles,Chicago and San Francisco.Elsewhere,Buenos Aires had the most dramatic fall,from 23rd to 133rd following Argentina’s economic crisis and devaluation of peso(经济危机和比索贬值).New Zealand and Australian cities continued to show they are probably the best bet for cheap but high quality living,with scores around 50 or below while at the same time ranking in the top 30 for quality of life in another Mercer survey published March 2002.31.This passage is probably____.A.a diary B.a letter C.a travel note D.a research report答案:D 这是一篇关于经济方面的文章,而且是最新动向,四个选项中只有D项符合。32.According to the passage in which country was the cost of the living the lowest worldwide in the last survey A.Buenos Aires B.Blantyre,MalawiC.San Francisco D.Hong Kong答案:B 文中说到“At the other end of the scale,Johannesburg replaced Blantyre,Malawi as the cheapest city on the planet.”前文说的是前几名的,这句话at the other end则说明是倒数的,而且现在Johannesburg代替了Blantyre, Malawi成为最廉价的城市, 所以可以看出上一次调查中生活水准最低的是Blantyre与Malawi。33.Suppose you have a small amount of money,the best place to go is____.A.Russia B.New Zealand C.Argentina D.South Africa答案:B New Zealand and Australian cities continued to show they are probably the best bet for cheap but high quality living,报道说:新西兰与澳大利亚的城市仍然是低价但高质量生活的“赌注点”。34.Which of the following statements is true A.The gulf between the costliest and cheapest cities had been reduced by 15%.B.You’d better travel to those cities with scores around 50 or below.C.The survey was carried out in 144 countries as well as those in Asia.D.New York scored top points while Hong Kong 124.2 points.答案:A A 项在文中第四、五、六行可找到,B项应该去那些“scores around 50 or below while at the same time ranking in the top 30 for quality of.”。
