11、se?W: Here s your balance.M: Thanks.6.

It consists of 2 sections.Section ADirections: In this section, there are 10 incomplete sent

22、ences. You are required to complete each one by deciding on the most appropriate word or words from the 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.问题:1. Without air, the night time _ very cold and the da

23、ys burning hot.A.beB.Would beC.isD.will be答案:B解析 如果没有空气，夜间会十分寒冷，而白天会酷热不堪。without air介词短语可以表示假设，其作用相当于If there were no air。句子所述的情况分明是不可能出现的，因此主句的谓语应该用虚拟语气。又如：Without electricity，the science would not have developed s0 fast若没有电，科学就不会发展得如此迅速。 Without water，there would be no life on earth如果没有水，地球上将会没有生命

24、。问题:2. The citys underground _ more people than the buses.A.bringsB.carriesC.sendsD.fetches答案:B解析 城市地铁比巴士运载的人数要多得多。carry vt表示“携带，运送，支持，支撑，传送，意味”等意思，在本句意为“运载，运送。”bring vt意为“拿来，带来，产生，引起，提出(诉讼)”，如：Bring the children back from the kinder-garten at four oclock下午四点把孩子们从幼儿园接回来。send vt意为“送，寄，发送，派谴，打发”，如：It

25、is now being sent to his home by train现在正用火车把它运往他家。fetch vt意为“接来，取来，带来，售得，引出，吸引，到达，演出”，如：Will you fetch some water?你给拿点儿水来好吗?问题:3. _ scientist and _ pianist _ been invited to the New Year s Eve reception given by the government.A.The. the. haveB.The. . haveC.The. .hasD.the.has答案:A解析 那位科学家和那位钢琴家都已受到邀

26、请参加政府举行的新年招待会。此题的答案应该从冠词的用法及主谓人称和数的一致上去考虑。两个用and并列起来的名词，共用一个定冠词，表示一个人有双重身份，当单数看待。若两个名词分别带有定冠词，再用and并列起来，则表示两个人或事情，当复数看待。如：The singer and actress is to attend our party this evening那位歌唱家兼演员今晚将参加我们的晚会。问题:4. Although the town have been attacked by the storm several times, _ was done.A.a fewB.few damage

27、C.a little damageD.little damage答案:B解析 虽然这个小镇遭到暴风雨的几次袭击，但没有造成什么损失。根据句子意义，需要填的是具有否定意义的代词。few和little意思都接近否定，表示“很少”，但few修饰可数名词，little修饰不可数名词。本句中damage意为“损害，损失”，是不可数名词，所以选little。再如：He made very few mistakes in the translation exercise他翻译练习里的错误很少。Few of them know Spanish他们当中很少有人懂西班牙语。问题:5. A business let

28、ter should be written in a formal style _ in a personal one.A.better thanB.rather thanC.other thanD.less than答案:B解析 信函应用正式文体书写，而不用私人信件形式。“rather than”意为“而不是”，“other than”意为“不同于，除了”，所以选B。再例：I came all the way to your place for explaining this matter to you rather than for quarreling with you我赶到你这儿来是为

29、了向你解释件事的，不是来吵架的。He，rather than you，should do the work该做这项工作的是他，而不是你。问题:6. Water pollution, together with old tins and other forms of garbage, _ many problems in our large, industrial city today.A.is causingB.have causedC.have been causingD.are caused答案:A解析 水污染，以及用过的锡罐和其他类型的垃圾，在的工业化大城市中引起很多问题。上述四个选项中

30、，三个表达复数概念，一个为单数，这时要注意其对应的主语是单数还是复数概念。本句的主语是water pollution，紧跟其后的介词短语不是主语的一部分，而是状语。此外，如果主语后面有as well as，as much as，rather than，more than，no less than，along with等引导的词组时，其谓语的单数形式与此短语无关，而通常按语法一致的原则，即按主语的单复数而定。例如：The captain，as well as the coaches，was disappointed in the team队长和教练们对球队的表现很失望。问题:7. As fuel

31、 prices rose, bus companies raised their fares, and _.A.so did the airlinesB.neither did the airlinesC.so did the airlines have doneD.neither the airlines did答案:A解析 随着燃料价格的上涨，公交公司提高了票价，航空公司也是如此。连词and表达的语气是顺接的，它所连接的并列成分在词性、时态等方面一致，故选A。so作副词时，常可用来代替上文出现过的形容词，名词或代词，通常其后接动词be，have，do或者像will，call，should的

32、词，然后再接主语。这样同时，意为“同样，也”，例如：Id like another drink，and so would John我想再喝一杯，约翰也是。问题:8. When we reached the pier, the ferry had not arrived yet; so we _.A.needed not to hurryB.neednt have hurriedC.didn t need to hurryD.had not needed to hurry答案:B解析 当我们到达码头时，轮渡还没有出发，我们本不必这样匆忙。本题考查的目的是情态动词的特殊用法“needt have+

33、过去分词”，表示过去没有必要做的事情。再如：You neednt have woken him upIts only five你其实不必叫醒他，现在才5点。问题:9. _ in the earthquake thoroughly, the city has now been rebuilt.A.DestroyingB.Having destroyedC.DestroyedD.To be destroyed答案:C解析 在地震中被彻底毁坏，这座城市现不得己重建。从题干的上下文来看，句子的主语the city是destroy所表示的动作的接受者，因此应选择被动语态形式。另外，从时间关系上来看，de

34、stroy所表示的动作，比rebuilt所表示的动作发生得早，而to be destroyed则表示将要发生的动作，时间晚于destroy所表示的动作，所以只能选择destroyed。过去分词所表示的动作早于谓语动词所表示的动作，且具有被动意义。再如：Commercial banks make most of their income from interest earned on loans and investiments in stocks and bonds商业银行主要收入渠道是通过股票和债券形式借贷和投资获得利息。问题:10. A couple of minutes earlier,

35、 _ we could have been able to hear his speech.A.andB.onC.butD.so答案:A解析 如果早到几分钟，我们就能够听到他的演讲了。题干空格后用的是情态动词加动词不定式的完成式，表示“本来可以做到而实际上没有做到”。连接词and可以表示结果，and之前则是一种假设。因此应该选择答案A。再如：turn off the avenue at the crossroad，and you will see the park about 500 meters ahead如果你在十字路口拐过去，就可以看到前面纺50米处的公园。so表示因果关系，but表示转

36、折关系，不合题意。or则是“不然，否则”的意思，显然不是答案。Section BDirections: There are 10 incomplete statements here. You should fill in each blank with the proper form of the word given in the brackets.
