2、问答听力缺少下文语境，故可在预读题目时首先大胆排除这两项(因为如选项A正确，那么D也正确，而一题不可能有两个答案)；选项B(25英里)回答的是距离。 2.A.Whos that?B.Well, you cant.C.Whom do you want to speak to?D.Wait for a moment.答案:D听力原文Hi, this is Henry Johnson. Can I speak to Jack? 解析 本题考查的是对电话用语的回答。说话人询问“我是亨利约翰逊，请问杰克在吗?”如果接电话的人正是要找的人，他可以回答“This is Jack speaking.”(我就是

3、。)如果不是可以说“Wait for a moment./Hold on, please.”(请稍等。)如果要找的人不在，可以说“Hes out.”(他出去了。)或说明其他原因，由此判断正确答案为选项D(等一会。) 选项A(请问你是谁?)与问句相矛盾，因为说话人已经在问句中首先说出了自己的姓名；选项B(你不能。)这样回答很不礼貌；选项C(你要和谁通话?)也与问句相矛盾，故均可排除。 3.A.Its wonderful.B.It doesnt matter.C.I once visited this city.D.Never mind.答案:A听力原文How do you like this c

4、ity? 解析 本题考查的是如何应对征求意见的提问。 征求意见的常用例句为“How do you like./What do you think of(about)./Whats yore opinion on.?”意为“你觉得/认为怎么样?”在回答时应针对事物的某一特性做出明确回答，因此选项A(很不错。)为正确答案。 选项B(没关系。)和D(别介意，没什么。)是在别人表示歉意时的回答，表示安慰；选项C(我曾经去过这个城市。)表达的是去这个城市参观过这一事实，并没有表明对这个城市的看法。 4.A.I like Mr. Zuo very much.B.I like English very mu

5、ch.C.Mr. Zuo came here last year.D.Mr. Zuo did.答案:D听力原文Hi, Mary, who taught you English last year? 解析 根据疑问词who可知本题询问的是谁做了某事。问句的意思是“去年谁教你们英语?”因此答案是选项D(是左先生。) 选项A(我很喜欢左老师。)是个人对老师的看法；选项B(我很喜欢英语。)表示的是对英语的态度；选项C(左老师是去年来到这里的。)也是答非所问。 5.A.Congratulations!B.Have a good time!C.You are unmarried.D.Good job!答案

6、:A听力原文Im going to marry Ellen next month. 解析 该题陈述的是一件值得恭喜的事，一般情况下受话者都会给以良好的祝愿，由此选项A(祝贺你!)为正确答案。 选项B(祝你玩得愉快!)是对聚会或旅游等活动的祝愿；选项C(你还没有结婚。)在此并不能作为回答的话语；选项D(真不错。)当对方做了一件比较出色的事情时，常用来表示赞扬的意思。 Section B (如需获取本MP3听力录音请搜索标题名) 1.A.She has found some interesting gifts.B.She listens to the radio.C.She watches TV.

The price of petrol _ sharply since last month.A.is raisedB.has risenC.has arisenD.is increased答案:B解析 本题考查的是动词近义词

17、辨析。这四个选项中的词均有“上升，提高”之意。选项A)是及物动词，意为“升起，举起，饲养，提出”，多指把某物从低处升到高处，有时作引申用。选项B)是不及物动词，意为“上升，升起，增加”，指具体的或抽象的事物由低向高移动或上升。选项C)是书面用词，意为“开始，出现”，常以抽象名词作主语。多用于诗歌或比喻中，具有特殊的修辞色彩。选项D)可作及物和不及物动词，意为“增加，提高”。根据句中的时间状语since last month，动词要用现在完成时，所以选项B)是正确答案。问题:2. She is _ girl that everyone will like her at the first sig

18、ht.A.such a lovelyB.so a lovelyC.such lovely aD.how lovely a答案:A解析 考查such和so的用法。问题:3. The work seemed easy at first but it _ to be quite difficult.A.broke outB.turned outC.worked outD.set out答案:B解析 本题考查动词搭配。break out意为“爆发”，例如：Fighting had broken out between rival groups of fans(双方球迷发生了打斗。)；turn out“

19、结果是；原来是”例如：He is a student in appearance，but he turns out to be a teacher(外表上他是学生，但原来他是一名老师)；work out意为“成功地发展”，例如：Things have worked out quite well for us(事情的结果对我们很不错。)；set out意为“出发，动身”，例如：They set out on the last stage of their journey(他们动身踏上最后的一段行程。)根据题意，B为正确答案。问题:4. Well begin the meeting _ the b

20、oss gets here.A.whereB.wheneverC.whicheverD.while答案:B解析 本题考查的是连词的词义。只有填入whenever句子可以讲得通，意为“无论何时”。选项A)和选项C)不能用来表示时间；选项D)表示的是一段时间，其引导的从句的谓语动词往往是延续性动词，而本句中的gets here不是延续性动词，所以可以排除。问题:5. The moment has came _ I can fully display my ability.A.thatB.whichC.whenD.what答案:C定语从句。能充分展示我的能力的时候到了。当先行词是表示时间的词时，定语

21、从句的关系副词应用when。问题:6. They gave _ broadcast while the performance was in process on the stage.A.livingB.aliveC.liveD.lively答案:C解析 本题测试点为形容词词义辨析。live(广播内容)非预先录音的、现场播出的，如：It wasnt a recorded show. It was live(那不是录音节目，是实况转播。)；living常用来指“活着的(人)”，alive用来表示“(人)活着的”，在句子中作表语。lively意为“活泼，有生气的”。根据句意，选项C正确。问题:7.

22、 How about taking _ short break? I want to make _ call.A.the; aC.the; theB.a; theD.a, a答案:D问题:8. _ a famous teacher, Mr. Baker still talks very little about himself.A.KnowingB.Known asC.Known ofD.Known to答案:Bbe known as为固定词组，表示“作为而出名”。问题:9. It is high time you_your membership duesA.paidB.payC.will p

23、ayD.to pay答案:A解析 考查虚拟语气的用法，“Its time、high time”句型中，从句用虚拟语气，从句中谓语动词用过去式。选项A为动词的过去式，选项B为动词原形，选项C为将来时态，选项D为动词不定式。正确答案为选项A。问题:10. _ last year, traffic accidents have decreased by 10% this year.A.Related toB.Compared withC.Concerned aboutD.Dealt with答案:B本题考查动词词组的辨析。四个选项都用了过去分词形式，与句子主语traffic accidents之间是

24、被动关系，这里是将今年的交通事故情况与去年的作比较，compare with意为“与相比”，符合句义。 A项relate to“与有关”，C项concern about“担心”以及D项deal with“处理”填入此处均语义不通。 Section B问题:1. We had great trouble _ (translate) this poem from Chinese into English.答案:translating问题:2. After reading the novel he was too (excite) _ to go to sleep.答案:excitedtoo+形容词

25、/副词+to表示“太而不能”，此处用作形容词，是系动词was的表语。问题:3. She looked at me with _ (adore) in her eyes.答案:adoration解析 adore翻译为“崇拜”，为动词，需变成名词与with构成介词短语。问题:4. The sellers allowed us to pay them on a (month)_basis.答案:monthly问题:5. (perform) _ Shakespeare can be a fun experience as students learn to interpret and perform

26、one of his plays in an abridged version as well as learn about his historical and literary significance.答案:Performing解析 本题考查的是动名词短语作主语。此句谓语为can be，缺少的是句子主语，perform是动词，因此此处应填其动名词形式performing。问题:6. You dont need to describe her; I (meet)_her several times.答案:have met解析 本题考查现在完成时的用法。副词several times说明动作

27、发生多次，并且对现在造成了影响。因此留空处使用动词meet的完成时形式have met。触类旁通 如果句子中有特别明显的过去时间状语，就要用一般过去时。如：I was born in 1982.(我于1982年出生。)问题:7. When I heard the news, I could not help (cry) _.答案:crying 句子意为：我听到这个消息的时候，禁不住哭了起来。cant help后应跟动名词，意为：禁不住。问题:8. When I called her on the phone, she pretended (not know) _ me.答案:not to kn

28、ow解析 动词不定式。pretend后面一般接动词不定式作宾语，即pretend(not)to do sth。具有类似用法的动词还有：intend，want，hope，learn，offer，plan，refuse，decide，determine，demand， ask，agree，happen，expect，request，afford，happen，promise等。问题:9. _ (be) I to do the work, I would do it better.答案:Were本题考查虚拟语气的用法。用于表示对不可能发生的事情的虚拟，可以用were；if从句省略if时，要用倒装。问

29、题:10. When it became dark in winter, the old man had the fire (burn) _ all night long.答案:burning解析 非谓语动词 本题考查非谓语动词作宾语补足语。英语中用have来表达使动意义，常有三种形式：have sb(sth)doing sth，表示“使某人(物)一直做某事”；have sthdone表示“使某事被做”和have sb(sth)do sth表示“使某人(物)做某事”。依据句意，老人一直让火燃着，所以应填写burning。 Part Reading Comprehension China lie

35、ns_.A.a body of onward running waterB.a tendency, movement, or courseC.a mass of continuous moving gasD.a flow of electric charge答案:C释义题题干意为“第一段中的单词current的意思可能是_。”从“currents”之后的“thus rain”(从而形成雨)，可推出“currents”具有形成雨的功能，根据常识，气流形成雨，得出currents的意思是“不断移动的气流”。故选C。3.
