There is a bird _ the tree and there are many apples _ the tree.A.in, onB.in, inC.on, onD.on, in答案:A树上有,树自身长出来的东西用on。不是树自身长出
24、来的而是外来的则用in。问题:2. How long has this bookshop been in business? _ 1982.A.AfterB.InC.FromD.Since答案:D介词since后接时间点或表时间点概念的名词或事件意为“从时间延续到现在”常与完成时连用,上下文呼应。after in,from均与过去式连用。问题:3. If you keep on, you ll succeed _.A.in timeB.at one timeC.at the same timeD.on time答案:Ain time为“及时”,还有“总有一天,最后,终于”之意;at one t
25、ime意为“一度,曾经有一个时期”;at the same time有“同时”之意;on time指“准时,按时”。问题:4. We offered him our congratulations _ his passing the college entrance exams.A.atB.ofC.forD.on答案:Dcongratulations与介词on为固定搭配。问题:5. Alice sold her hair _ ten yuan.A.ofB.toC.forD.with答案:Cfor在此表示“比值或比例关系”。问题:6. He usually goes to work on his
26、 bike _ raining days.A.except onB.except inC.exceptD.except for答案:A“在下雨天”应为on rainy days;except后可跟介词on表示时间;这句话的句意是“除了雨天,他通常都骑自行车上班”。问题:7. Lets walk over _ the sun on the other side of the street.A.inB.toC.underD.by答案:B此处sun指的是a place with sunshine即“有阳光的地方”或“太阳照射的地方”。 in the sun意为“在阳光下”,此处用介词in不适合。因为
27、the sun后有on the other side of the street修饰,再根据句中walk over的意思空处只能填to。句意为:咱们到街对面有阳光的地方去吧。问题:8. How long _ each other before they _ married?For about a year.A.have they known, getB.did you know, were going to getC.do you know, are going to getD.had they known, got答案:D由答语“for a about a year”得知,主句的谓语动词可用
28、完成时态,又根据题意,“结婚前他们认识多长时间了”可知,后一空应用过去式got。第一空是过去的过去,即过去完成时,故选D。问题:9. My dictionary _ , I have looked for it everywhere but still _ it.A.has lost, dont findB.is missing, dont findC.has lost, havent foundD.is missing, havent found答案:Dlose是一个及物动词,在此句中应用被动语态,故A、C两项应排除;miss(丢失)是一个不及物动词,第一空应用is missing。下文的b
29、ut连接两个并列分句,第一个分句用现在完成式,根据题意,后一个分句也应用现在完成式,表示目前所产生的结果。问题:10. The students are _ to hand in the exercises before class.A.expectedB.hopedC.agreedD.promised答案:A这是一个含有被动语态的句子,如果我们把它还原成主动语态,句子的答案就非常明显了。此句的主动语态为The teacher _ the students to hand in the exercises before class。所给的答案只有A和D项才能接不定式作宾补,但D项不符合逻辑,故
30、选A。问题:11. Shirley _ a book about China last year but I dont know whether she has finished it.A.has writtenB.wroteC.had writtenD.was writing答案:D此题如果只看but以前的部分,那么B和D都对,但是由于下文给我们提供了一个语言环境I dont know whether she has finished it (or not),所以只能选D。B项过去时是表示过去的动作,对现在无任何影响。问题:12. Hello! I _ you _ in London. Ho
31、w long have you been here?A.dont know, wereB.hadnt know, areC.havent know, areD.didnt know, were答案:D根据题意,“I”知道“you”现在在London,但“I”在见到“you”之前并不知道,因此第一空填过去时,第二空是第一空动词后宾语从句中的谓语动词,故它受主句谓语动词时态的限制,也只能用过去时态范围的动词时态,故选D。问题:13. When _ again?When he _ , Ill let you know.A.he comes, comesB.will he come, comeC.he
32、 comes, will comeD.will he come, comes答案:D第一句是特殊疑问句,因此要用疑问句语序,故排除A和C;第二句中是when引导的时间状语,用一般现在时表示将来,故选D。问题:14. _ the sports meet might be put off.Yes. It all depends on the weather.A.Ive been toldB.Ive toldC.Im toldD.I told答案:A从上句语境上看,“tell”这个动作发生在过去,但对目前有影响,故要用完成式;tell的惯常用法是“tell+间接宾语十直接宾语”。本题如果用主动语态,
33、就缺少间接宾语,句子不成立,故应用被动式。综上所述,正确答案应为A。问题:15. My brother _ while he _ his bicycle and hurt himself.A.fell, was ridingB.fell, were ridingC.had fallen, rodeD.had fallen, was riding答案:A仔细分析句子结构:题中and连接两个并列谓语,由and hurt himself可知第一空应用一般过去式,又因while从句的主语是“he”,故谓语动词要用单数第三人称形式。故选A。第二节 完型填空阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B
34、、C和D)中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。 In 1980 a report was published about what the earth might be like 20 years from then. The report was the result of a three-year study.

One t
43、hing that makes Stone Hill Mall popular was that all of the stores remain open from 9 a.m. until 10 p.m. , Monday through Friday. This favourable start has certainly been advantageous thanks to such features as its being the only shopping centre in the area to provide free baby-sitting for children
44、from two to eight years old and its offering restaurants to suit every pock- et, with the possible exception of the highly budget-conscious. Furthermore, as far as movie en tertainmetn is concerned, Stone Hill Mall tops Westgate Mall, which looked very impressive when it opened last year, with three
45、 separate cinemas. Besides, the air-conditioning system makes sure a comfortable inside temperature of 25 degrees centigrade no matter what the weather is like outside, and in addition to its three beautiful fountains, the mall has a quiet garden area with comfortable benches and chairs for shoppers who have become tired. One complaint about Stone Hill Mall is that it is located outside the city, but there is a regular bus service between the mall and the city centre. A further complaint might be that, although the mall is surrounded by trees to mix it with the s
