It consists of 2 sections. Section A Directions: In this section, there

27、are 10 incomplete sentences. 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 center. 问题:1. While _ the novel, I didnt

28、 think I would identify with the characters in it.A.readB.having readC.being readingD.reading答案:D本题测试的是非谓语动词的用法。全句的意思是：“在读这本小说时，我认为自己还不能辨别其中的人物。”I和read构成主谓关系。“While reading the novel”实际上是“While I was reading the novel”的缩略形式。根据句意，应选答案D。问题:2. Theyre satisfied with the replies theyve received from the

29、public _ far.A.thatB.soC.forD.as答案:B解析 本题考查so far的用法：“so far”意思是“迄今为止”，符合句意，故选项B为正确答案。避错指南 A项、C项和D项均不能与far搭配成词组，故均排除。问题:3. I regret _ harder at office.A.not to have workedB.not having workedC.not have workedD.having not worked答案:Bregret遗憾；抱歉。后面既可以跟不定式强调将要发生的事情，也可以跟动名词强调已经发生的事情，如：I regret spending so

30、 much money on a car，我后悔在一辆小汽车上花这么多钱。I regret to say I cannot come.很抱歉，我不能来了。问题:4. You have worked too hard and youd better take a holiday northward or _.A.howeverB.whateverC.whereverD.whichever答案:C本题测试的是副词词义的辨析。全句的意思是：“你工作太辛苦了，你最好能去北方或是什么其他地方度假。”however意为“然而，不过，但是”；whatever意为“任何事物，什么都”；wherever意为“无

31、论哪里”；whichever意为“无论哪个”。根据句意，应选答案C。问题:5. When I entered the classroom, I found the students _ the questions in groups.A.to discussB.discussC.discussedD.discussing答案:D解析 本题考查动词现在分词的用法。在本题中find之后是句子的宾语，而这种结构通常会使用“find sbdoing sth”的结构，其中动词现在分词作宾语补足语，所以D项为正确答案。避错指南 A项“to discuss”是动词不定式；B项“discuss”是动词原形，而

32、C项“discussed”是动词的过去分词，都不能作动词find的宾语补足语，故都排除。问题:6. The most important outcome of education is to help students become independent _ formal education.A.fromC.toB.ofD.on答案:Bbe independent of是一个固定搭配，意为“独立的”；不依赖于他人或他物的；不受他人控制的。句意：教育最大的成果就是帮助学生们不去依赖于正式教育。问题:7. It was not until he arrived at the railway st

33、ation _ he realized he had forgotten his ticket.A.beforeB.sinceC.whenD.that答案:D考点 强调句型 句意 当他到达火车站的时候他才想起忘带火车票了。 解析 It is/was not untilthat是一种强调句型，强调的是not until引导的时间状语从句，翻 译成“直到才”。去掉强调结构It is/was和that句子依然成立。 避错 A)before、B)since和C)when三项都是时间副词引导时间状语从句，本身没有错误，但只 有在空格前是个完整句子的情况下才可选用。本句中，空格前只是时问状语不是句子，所以

34、这三项都 不对。 问题:8. I, not you, _ to answer for it.A.areB.isC.beD.am答案:D解析 主语由肯定和否定两部分构成时，谓语与肯定的部分一致。例如：The children，not Lucy，were cooking at home，(在家里做饭的是露西的孩子们而不是她。)故选D。问题:9. Rats are harmful. We must get rid _them.A.withB.ofC.offD.against答案:Bget rid of：免除；摆脱问题:10. The headmaster _ us that the school w

35、ould be closed for one day next week.A.informedB.instructedC.toldD.noticed答案:A这句话的意思是：女校长告诉我们下星期学校将停一天课。tell, instruct, inform这组近义词的一般含义是“把某消息或某件事转达给别人”。tell最通用，最不正式。它的含义是“把某事告诉某人”。它也含有给人以“指示”的意思，即“叫某人做某事”：Glancing at her scornfully, he told her that the dress was sold. 他轻蔑地看了她一眼，告诉她说那件衣服卖过了。它的含义也可以

36、是“讲述某件事”：He has been able to tell us more about active volcanoes than any man alive. 他现在比任何人都能更多地向我们讲述有关活火山的情况。 instruct可以表示给某人以“指示”，不同于tell的地方在于这个词正式些。这是因为这个词的原义为teach。如：The editor at once sent the journalist a telegram instructing him to find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wal

37、l, 编辑立即给这位记者发了一份电报，叫他查明台阶的准确数目以及围墙的高度。 注：由于instruct的原义是teach，所以这个词一般用于上级对下级或长辈对晚辈的指令。而tell却没有这层含义。在表示“通知”时，这个词和inform的差别也在于此。 inform的含义是“向某人传递信息”。虽然它可以表示把任何别人不知道的事情说出来，以使人知晓，但是这个词特别适用于告知所发生的情况或有关资料：I have just received a letter from my old school informing me that my former headmaster, Mr Reginald P

38、age, will be retiring next week. 我刚接到母校的一封信，通知我说我的老校长雷金纳德佩奇先生将于下星期退休。 注：inform可以用于上级对下级，也可以用于下级对上级的通知。而notice做动词的意思是：(常与that, how连用)注意到；看到；留心：Did you notice him leave the house? 你看到他离开房间了吗? 它做名词时才有通知的意思。 Section B Directions: There are 10 incomplete statements here. You should fill in each blank wit

39、h the proper form of the word given in brackets. Write the word or words in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet. 问题:1. I saw a wallet(lie) _ on the ground on my way home.答案: lying解析 本题考查非谓语动词形式。在这里用现在分词形式表示一种状态。问题:2. We _ (change) opinions before arriving a conclusion.答案:interchange本题测试的是复合词

40、的构成。全句的意思是：“我们在得出结论之前交换了意见。”前缀inter-表示“在之间，在一起，交互”，如interact意为“交流，交往，互相理解”。问题:3. She was so interested in the book that she (read) it for three hours before she realized it.答案:had read考点 过去完成时 解析 此处空格表示动作发生在before引导的从句中realized的动作之前，所以应该用其过去完成时。 问题:4. My house is full of dust because the old house j

41、ust opposite _ (pull) down.答案:is being pulled根据前半句知道时态为现在时，而后半句有被动的意思，更应注意的是：时态是现在进行时。问题:5. I was so angry that I felt like (throw) _ something at him.答案:throwing本题测试的是动词词组的用法。全句的意思是：“我非常生气以至于想向他扔东西。”feel like + doing sth意为“想要做某事”。问题:6. The average of letters received each month _ (be) 3000.答案:is考点分

42、析 本题考查数的一致，“the average +of+复数名词”结构做主语，谓语动词应用单数形式；类似用法的结构：还有“the number of”，“the total of”.问题:7. Look, the mother bird(feed) _ her babies in the tree.答案: is feeding解析 本题考查时态。根据look一词可知, 鸟妈妈喂小鸟的动作正在进行中, 所以动词应该用现在进行时的形式。问题:8. Most stars are ( visible )_ to the naked eye in the day - time.答案: invisible

43、问题:9. She never _ (get) over the shock of her fathers death.答案:got句意：她在上学之前无法克服父亲去世的震惊。问题:10. The sand _ (blow) through the city streets and piles up against walls and fences.答案:blows根据后面and连接的动词piles反推出。Part Reading Comprehension Directions: This part is to test your reading ability.

52、rvard University.答案:B解析 本题主要考查本文的主旨。从文章第一段Founded 16 years after the arrival of Pilgrims at Plymouth，the university.以及第二段During its early years,.我们可以看到作者按时间顺序介绍了哈佛大学的发展历史。 避错 A)“哈佛大学过去和现在的学校面积”；C)“哈佛大学的几位重要的校长”；D)“宗教对于哈佛大学的影响”，这三个选项文中都有所提及，但作为主旨，它们都比较片面。 2.
