awareness about air pollution and encouraged people to join in efforts to make a difference.a. the; the. b. a; a. c. the; 不填. d. a; 不填【答案】d【命题立意】考查冠词的用法。【解析】句意：穹顶之下，一部由柴静出版的103分钟的纪录片已经激发了关于大气污染的公共意识，并鼓励人们参加更多的活动进行改变。第一空是泛指，“一部的纪录片”，故填a，第二空的中心词是awareness，是抽象名词，不加冠词。故判断选d。22. _ can help but be fascinated by the world into which he is taken by the science fiction.a. nobody. b. anybody. c. somebody. d. everybody【答案】a【命题立意】考查代词的用法。【解析】noboy can help but相当于everybody cant help but意思为大家都不禁为这些他被吸引的科幻故事所吸引了。sb. cant help but为情不自禁做某事的意思。cant help but +动词原形，禁不住。如：所以选a。【举一反三】cant but 含义为 “不得不, 必然, 不能不”，是一种双重否定。i cannot but be sorry. 我不能不感到遗憾。（不禁感到遗憾）与cant but 同义的还有 cant help but和cant choose but do something。这一组短语与 cant but 所表示的意思大致相同，只不过cant help/choose but 强调一个人在不能在正常情况下处于本人控制之下所产生的结果，即由于无法避免或由不得本人的控制而“不能不、不得不、只好”。下面讲一下它们的具体含义和用法。（1）cant help but do something我们情不自禁地钦佩他的勇气”一句就可以有以下三种讲法 we cannot help but admire his courage. we cannot help admiring his courage. we cannot but admire his courage.前两句强调在无法控制情况下钦佩，后一句说的是在正常情况下而不能不钦佩。（2）cant choose but do something强调“别无选择”，但可以说与cant help but完全同义，如“我不能不感到遗憾”就可以用不同的手段表示 i cannot choose but be sorry.（除了遗憾别无选择） i cannot help but be sorry.（除了遗憾只能无可奈何）（3）cant help doing something 禁不住如：hearing this story, i couldnt help laughing.(听到这个故事，我禁不住大笑起来。)另外，注意区分下个句子：i am so busy that i cant help do that.（我太忙，我不能帮助做那件事。）在此句中，cant help 并不是句型，而是help do something 否定形式，这里help只是“帮助”的意思。（4）再有，表示“别无选择，只有做某事”这个含义的词组还有 do nothing but do something和 have no choice but to do something。如：i can do nothing but wait for him.我别无选择，只好等他。i had no choice but study harder.我别无选择只好更加努力学习。 23. its obvious that getting these historic sites recognized by the world is helpful for preserving and repairing them, as it _ their extreme importance and value.a. associates. b symbolizes. c. stresses. d. abolishes【答案】c【命题立意】考查动词辨析。【解析】句意：很显然，这些历史遗址得到世界的承认对保存和修理它们是有帮助的，因为它强调了它的特别重要性和价值。a. associates联系；b symbolizes使成为象征；stresses强调；d. abolishes清除。所以选c。24. as is often the case, teachers _ with parents involve complaints about childrens misbehaviors and laziness in school.a. acquaintances. b. negotiations. c. conferences. d. consultations【答案】c【命题立意】考查名词辨析。【解析】句意：情况经常是这样，家长会上老师们抱怨孩子们在校的顽皮和懒惰。a. acquaintances知道，熟悉；b. negotiations协商；c. conferences会议；d. consultations请教、咨询、磋商。根据题意选c。25.

been promoted; convincingc. promoted; convinced. d. to have been promoted; being convinced【答案】d【命题立意】考查非谓语动词。【解析】第一空前的名词teacher被the first修饰，一般只能用不定式作定语，排除a和c。第二空是动名词短语，根据convince的用法特点：be convinced of sth对有信心。题意：-约翰逊据说是今年你们大学晋级教授的第一位年轻教师。-真的。他对自己竞争力的自信心是他成长的一个重要因素。所以选d。 26. how is your father feeling at present? he _ quite fine after the operation, but unluckily he is taking a turn for the worse today.a. feels. b. felt. c. has been feeling. d. had felt【答案】b【命题立意】考查时态的用法。【解析】句意：-你父亲现在感觉怎么样？。-手术之后，他感觉很好，但不幸的是今天情况有点糟。“感觉很好”是发生在手术后的事，这是发生在以前，应用一般过去时。所以选b。27. the wedding dress of the princess is noble and elegant. _ is the beauty of this style that it will be popular with young women.a. such. b. it. c. what. d. that【答案】a【命题立意】考查倒装句。【解析】句意：公主的婚纱很高贵、很优雅。这种风格是这么的美以至于它会很快受到年轻女士的欢迎。这里用suchthat结构，such代指这种情况，so后面要接形容词或副词，such放在句首，后面用倒装句，故选a。28. the region was served by a railway line, with station stops from three

how. b. which. c. what. d. that【答案】d【命题立意】考查同位语从句。【解析】句意：-你感觉这部新手机怎么样？-哦，很好。这款手机上开发了一种新功能，它能清晰地展现给你和你打电话的人周围的情况。a new function做主语，为避免头重脚轻，将它的同位语放在了句子的最后面。that引导同位语从句，无任何意义，不可省略。该从句说明了a new function的内容。所以选d。30. mankind must first of all eat, drink, have shelter and clothing. _ it can pursue politics, science, art and religion.a. until. b. unless. c. before. d.
