试题答案与解析 

1. A) 他尽管学识渊博,但始终很谦逊。【难点】 句型“for all +one’s+名词或从句”以及“with all (one’s+名词或从句)”为习惯性用语,常用来表示让步状语, for all或with all 相当于in spite of all,意为“尽管,虽然”。

2. D) 他的诚实是无可怀疑的,没有人能怀疑这一点。【难点】without question 意为“无可怀疑的”。in question 意为“在考虑中的,在议论中的”。out of question 意为“不成问题”。beside the question 无此搭配。 3. A) 烹饪一道好菜时,必须考虑使用这种调料。【难点】 由时间状语中的a delicious dish 可以看出,此句意在说明一个普遍的事实,而不是特指烹饪某一道菜,所以无须使用过去时,而只需使用表示普遍情况的一般时。

4. B) 直到他开始以钓鱼为乐,他才开始得到了轻松的休息。【难点】 此句为强调句,所强调的时间状语从句部分的动作几乎和主句的动作同时发生,时间状语从句的谓语动词为过去时,因而主句的谓语动词采用过去时便可。

9. D) “我按时到了办公室。”“假如你的车坏了会怎么样?”【难点】 what if 意为“倘使…将会怎样”,由其构成 的虚拟条件句通常用过去时表示将来,用过去完成时表示过去时,本句意在表达与过去事实相反 ,所以条件句子中谓语动词必须采用D)。

10. D) 如果那时天气更好一点的话,现在庄稼长得会更好。【难点】 此句为一错综时间条件句。本句中的从句表达与过去事实相反的一个假设,按照常规虚拟语气句的要求,主句中的谓语动词应为would have grown,表达与过去事实相反;但主句实际要表达的是与现在事实相反,所以谓语动词应为would be growing。

rare强调某种东西是很少见到的,或某种现象是很少发生的,具有珍贵、贵重的意味。它的反义词是 common。Scarce 形容的事物不一定有珍贵之意,而是指有些东西(通常为日用品)因匮乏或难以得到而变得稀少或缺少。它的反义词是plentiful或abundant。此外,修饰时间表示频率时,则只能用rare,而不能用scarce,此时rare的含义是“不经常发生的”

试题答案与解析 

1. D) 这台机器是塑料制成的,所以很轻。【难点】分词结构置于句首,往往表示主句动作或行为的原因。动词不定式置于句首,往往作目的状语。本句中主句的主语和原因状语部分的动词的逻辑主语一致,故后者的动词部分应该使用被动语态,所以只有D)正确。

2. A) “在这次事故中三个人全都受伤了吗?”“没有,只有两名乘客受了伤”。【难点】 问句中的three people要求用复数谓语动词,由于动作发生在过去,所以选were。答句中用了强调结构,即It was +sb.+who(that)从句。

3. B) 站在海岬的顶端实际上就是站在流动的熊河里。【难点】 动词不定式和动名词都可以作主语,但在主系表结构的句子中,如果表语为动词不定式,则主语也应为动词不定式;如果表语为动名词,则主语也应为动名词,二者必须统一。

4. D) 他就本次足球赛所做的讲话令许多球迷烦得要死。【难点】 本句中缺少一个介词,四个选项中只有D)可以用作介词,意为“有关,关于”,相当于about。 5. C) 他在一种简朴生活的氛围中受教育正是他父母所希望的。【难点】 本句的主语是一个带有逻辑主语的动名词短语,即C)。全句总体结构为主系表。 6. D) 话一出口,他就意识到他应该保持沉默。【难点】 no sooner …than常译为“一…就”,为一固定的搭配。如果no sooner 置于句首,则从句的主语和谓语必须倒装,在以上结构中,主句一般用过去完成时,从句用一般过去时,所以选项D)正确。

7. D) 他走出总经理办公室,看起来好像受到了严厉的惩罚。【难点】 look as if +从句这种结构,从句中的谓语一般用虚拟式,如谓语的形式为过去时,则表示与现在的事实相反,如谓语的形式为过去完成时,则表示与过去的事实相反。

8. A) 厂长兼书记来参加我们的聚会。【难点】 英语中,如果两个以上的名词前面只有一个定冠词the,则可认定指的是一个人或物;如果这种结构作主语,谓语动词必须用单数形式。 9. C) 据悉这项工程已进行了三个月了。【难点】 因为for three months是个与完成时连用的状语,且to为不定式符号,所以选C),即不定式的完成进行时。 10. B) 要不是那场车祸,他们可能早就到了。【难点】 But for 常与后边的名词或代词连用,用于表达虚拟的条件。其他选项无此功能。

11. B) 简反应慢,可她哥哥却相反,在理解论点方面反应非常快。【难点】 grasp 意为“理解,领会”;grab 意为“抓取,攫取”;capture 意为“引起(注意);逮住”;snatch 意为“夺走,夺得”。 12. A) 为了查清问题的根源,记者采访了每个目击者。【难点】 root 意为“根源;根由”;stem 意
