Cbe born意为“出生”，为固定搭配；主语my new pen pal Jack为第三人称单数，故be动词用was。句意：我的新笔友杰克出生在伦敦。22. Atooto的用法是too + adj. + to do sth.; so/suchthat后面要接一个从句；betweenand连接的前后两个词的形式应该一致，故选A项。句意：你越年轻开始做事情越好。23. Bspend的常用结构有：spend+时间+(in) doing sth./ spend+金钱+(on) doing sth./spend+金钱/时间+on sth.，因此选项B正确。句意：他的奶奶花费自己所有的空闲时间来照顾孙儿。 24. Astop doing sth.意为“停止做某事”；stop to do sth.意为“停下来去做某事”。由句意“当王老师进来时，所有的孩子都停止了说话”可知选A项。25. D英语中表示在哪一年、哪一月或哪一年的哪一月常用介词in, 而具体到某一天要用介词on, 因此选D项。句意：他出生在1980年9月12日。 26. C由时间状语last night可知用一般过去时，故选C项。句意：昨天晚上我9:50上床睡觉了。 27. Djoin意为“参加”，常指加入组织、机构等，成为其中的一员；make意为“生产，制造”；play意为“玩耍，比赛”；take part in意为“参加”，常指参加活动等并在其中发挥积极作用。句意：我们班大多数同学参加了昨天的足球比赛。28. B句意：他的弟弟在16岁时就成为了一名专业的篮球运动员。由句意知，事情发生在过去，应用一般过去时。故选B。29. Dlearn to do sth.意为“学着做某事”。句意：我妹妹上周学会了骑自行车。由句意知选D项。30. C由a famous可知，后面应该接一个表示人或职业的名词，而给出的选项中只有C项正确。piano意为“钢琴”；violin意为“小提琴”；violinist意为“小提琴家”。 31. Bbe always doing sth.是固定用法，意为“总是/一直做某事”。32. D通读短文可知，对父亲的建议，这四个儿子丝毫不在意。所以but符合要求。故选D项。33. A由空格后的动词不定式to show排除C、D两项，因为finish和enjoy后跟动名词；decide意为“决定”，fail意为“失败”，联系上下文可知事情还没有做，只是“决定”去做，故选A。34. Ccarried“搬动的”；lifted“举起的”；tied“扎紧的”；opened“打开的”。联系下文中的“Then he untied the string and scattered the sticks.”可知tied符合文意，故应该选择C项。35. A此处是让步状语从句。由“他不能把那捆树枝折断”可知，though“即使”符合句意，故选A。36. Bin turn是固定短语，意为“依次，轮流”。37. B由下文中当那捆树枝散开后孩子们轻易折断可知，此处意为“但是他们中没有一个人能做到”，故先排除用于肯定句的A、C两项；none用于三者或三者以上，neither用于两者，由父亲让四个儿子折树枝可知none符合要求。故选B。38. Cdifficultly“困难地”；happily“快乐地”；easily“轻易地”；sadly“悲伤地”。根据上下文及常识可知单根树枝很“容易”折断，故选C。39. D由“你们遇到的敌人能打败你们”可推知，“如果你们总是争执、各行其是”。故disagree符合要求。40. Csame“相同的”；opposite“相反的”；separate“单独的，独立的”；united“联合的”。联系上文可知“各行其是”的结果是遭受挫败。故选C。41. D由第一段Beethoven was born in a small city near the Rhine in Germany. His father always drank and his mother was a maid(女仆). They lived a very poor life.可知D项为正确选项。42. C由第二段第三句His father wanted to make money from his talent, so he told him to practice and play all the time.可知。43. B由第二段第二句People at that time thought he was as clever as Mozart.可知B项为正确选项。44. B由第三段Beethoven was very short and ugly(难看的). People always laughed at him. He couldnt hear well from the age of 22 and later heard nothing, but all these unhappy things didnt make him dislike music. He began to write sonatas(奏鸣曲) at 12, and later he became a great musician.可知。45. C由最后一段His life was so short that he didnt leave many works.
