1、大学英语考试复习资料大学三级(B)分类模拟196大学英语考试复习资料大学三级(B)分类模拟196大学三级(B)分类模拟196Part Vocabulary and StructureSection A问题:1. The scientist Galileo claimed that the earth _ around the sun.A.movesB.movedC.is movingD.was moving答案:A本题考查宾语从句的时态。因为“地球围绕太阳转”是一个客观真理，所以从句时态应该用一般现在时，而不需与主句的时态保持一致。故本题正确答案为选项A。选项B用了一般过去时；C用了现在进行时

2、；D用了过去进行时都不能用来表示客观真理，故均可排除。问题:2. We occasionally have friends round for dinner but apart from that we dont _ with others very much.A.socializeB.socialC.societyD.socialism答案:A本题考查单词的词义。socialize是动词，意为“使社会化；社交”；social是形容词，意为“社会的”；society是名词，意为“社会”；socialism是名词，意为“社会主义”。该句意为：我们偶尔和朋友聚餐一下，除此之外，我们不太社交。问题:

3、3. Big changes have taken place at the Marketing Department _ the new manager came.A.beforeB.afterC.sinceD.while答案:C现在完成时本题考查连词的辨析和现在完成时的用法。since意为“自从以来”，常与现在完成时、现在完成进行时或过去完成时连用。分析句子结构可知，主句为现在完成时，本句中填入since符合句意和时态的要求，故确定本题答案为C。 before意为“在之前”；after意为“在之后”；while意为“当的时候”，一般接进行时的句子。这三个介词均不符合句子的时态要求，因此均可

4、以排除。 问题:4. It was not until 3:00 pm _ the secretary found the missing report.A.whereB.thatC.asD.while答案:B强调句本句的意思是：直到下午3时，秘书才找到那份丢失的报告。这是一个it is/was.that.的强调句句型，强调not until 3:00 pm，所以答案是B. that。问题:5. Please call me back _ you see this message.A.as well asB.as early asC.as far asD.as soon as答案:D本题考查短

5、语意思辨析。依句意可知，留本条信息的人希望看到信息的人能尽快回电话，而as soon as意为“一就”，符合题意，故正确答案为选项D。选项A(as well as)意为“也、又”；B(as early as)意为“早在某个时候”；C(as far as)意为“直到”，都不符合题意。问题:6. The reason for his absence today _ he has been ill.A.is becauseB.is because ofC.is thatD.is as答案:C问题:7. In order to search for the escaped prisoner, the

6、policeman decided to question_ comes along this road.A.whoB.whomC.whoeverD.whomever答案:C引导词的用法whoever相当于anyone who，题中强调的是“任意谁，无论谁”，who和whom均不能表达这一意思，而whomever在从句中做宾语成分，不合题意，故选C。问题:8. Free medical treatment in this country covers sickness of mind as well as _ sickness.A.normalB.regularC.averageD.ordin

7、ary答案:D形容词词义辨析A项normal“正常的，标准的”指不超过某种限度，符合某种标准或常规。B项regular“有规律的，定期的”强调规律性。C项average指“平均的”。D项ordinary“平常的，普通的”强调一般性和普通性，含不突出之意。空格后是sickness“(较小的)疾病”，故需要用ordinarily修饰，表示“常见病”。故选D。问题:9. The police officer has begun to _ the case.A.look outB.look intoC.look onD.look over答案:B警官已经着手调查这个案件；主要考查动词look与介/副词

8、的搭配。look into表示“调查、过问”，符合题意；look out意为“当心，留神”；look on意为“旁观”；look over意为“检查、复习”。问题:10. The Yellow River is the second _ river in China.A.longB.longerC.longestD.length答案:CSection B问题:1. The things which are urgent should be given _ (prior) during the conference.答案:priority本题考查词形的转换。考查的词根prior为形容词，意为“优

9、先的，在前的”；加-ity变名词，意为“优先，优先权”。该句意为：紧急的事情应在会议中优先提出。问题:2. The audience asked the chairman to speak a little (slow) _.答案:slowly考查词性转换：修饰动词speak要用slow的副词形式。问题:3. Some people think (much) _about their rights than about their duties.答案:more本题考查比较级结构。从后半部分than可以得知本句子为比较状语从句，much的比较级为more，因此空格处应填写比较级more。问题:4

10、. The railway (destroy) _ during the war is under reconstruction.答案: destroyed问题:5. You may have (free) _ of action in dealing with the matter; do exactly what you think best.答案:freedom宾语应为名词，而freedom是free的名词形式。问题:6.

11、lly.答案:had been applied问题:7. They soon _(recovery) the lost time.答案:recovered他们很快就弥补了失去的时间。recover意为“重新获得，找回，恢复”，作谓语动词，根据句意，应用过去时态。问题:8.

12、案:thinking本题考查固定短语cannot help doing sth.意为“情不自禁做”。所以，留空处应填入think的-ing分词形式thinking。 help的另一个常见用法是cannot help but do sth.(只得做)。 问题:10.
