17、 will _ tomorrow. 答案:get/be married听力原文 Jane is happy and excited. She is going to be married tomorrow and it is one of the greatest times of her life.

23、“friends”。 Part StructureSection A问题:1. Some of his suggestions have been adopted but others have been turned _ as quite impractical.A.awayB.backC.ourD.down答案:D问题:2. Tom ought not to _ me your secret, but he really meant no harm.A.have toldB.tellC.be tellingD.having told答案:A解析情态动词。由于后句为过去时，“告诉秘密”的动作

24、又发生在其前面，因此此处应该用过去完成时，但它在情态动词ought to后，所以用，have told。避错指导 tell和be telling在此处都无法表示已经说出了秘密；having told不用在情态动词后面；问题:3. Hardly _ his speech when a young woman in the audience rose to make a protest.A.George finishedB.does George finishC.George had finishedD.had George finished答案:D考点 倒装结构解析 本句的意思是：乔治刚结束讲话

25、，观众中的一名年轻女子就站了起来提出抗议。hardly.when有“一就”、“刚刚就”的意思，当hardly位于句首时，句子通常倒装。在选项中，只有B和D是倒装，但本句的动作发生在过去，所有只有D才是正确答案。问题:4. Id like a room _ windows look out over the Seven Star Lake.A.thatB.whereC.whichD.whose答案:D我想要一间窗户朝着七星湖的房间。该题考查的是关系代词whose的用法。whose在从句中作定语，当先行词与从句中某个名词有所属关系，表达“的”意思时，用关系代词whose引导定语从句，它既可以指代人

26、，也可以指代物，既可引导限制性定语从句，也可以引导非限制性定语从句。问题:5. Once environmental damage_, it takes many years for the system to recover.A.had doneB.is doneC.is to doD.does答案:B解析 被动语态句意 环境一旦遭到破坏，需要多年的时间才能恢复过来。解析 主语environmental damage与谓语“做”之间是被动关系，所以用is done。避错指导 had done为过去完成时形式is to do为一般将来时形式，does为一般现在时形式，都不包含被动的含义。问题:

27、6. He hurried to the airport only to find his ticket and passport _ at home.A.have been leftB.had leftC.had been leftD.were left答案:C此处应用过去完成时的被动形式。问题:7. Our car will arrive in Pu Dong International Airport at nine o clock, but the plane I would like to take _ by then.A.will have leftB.would leaveC.h

28、as leftD.had left答案:A解析 时态句意 我们的车9点才到浦东国际机场。可是那时我要乘的飞机已经起飞了。解析 by+时间一般与完成时连用，后面接表示将来的时间就用将来完成时，接表示过去的时间就用过去完成时。本题是表示将来的时间，故应用将来完成时。问题:8. Even _ Pauls brother lives in Brazil, he has never been there.A.althoughB.despiteC.thoughD.that答案:C解析 本题考查引导让步状语从句的连词。even though是连词词组，用于引导让步状语从句，意思是“尽管”，相同的词组还有ev

29、en if，因此C项为正确答案。 避错指南 A项和D项不与even连用可首先予以排除。B项“despite”是介词，后接名词和名词词组，所以也排除。 问题:9. Robert and his songs _ were famous in the United States are also popular in China.A.whichB.whoC.thatD.as答案:C修饰人和物的定语从句用that引导。问题:10. _ with his assignment, the professor told Jack to write it again.A.Not satisfyingB.Not

30、 having satisfyingC.Not to satisfyD.Not being satisfied答案:D解析 考点：非谓语动词。根据句意可知，这个分句是需要表示原因的分词否定结构，而且分词应是由be satisfied转化而来。表示“对满意”用be satisfied with，故选D。 例句 Not knowing the road，I lost my way 我因路不熟而迷了路。 Section B问题:1. The doctor ordered the nurses _(watch) the patient carefully.答案:to watch解析 医生命令护士们仔细

31、观察那个病人：order sh to do sth问题:2. We tried to make everyone(satisfy)_with our work.答案:satisfied表示“使满意”，用过去分词，表示人的心态。问题:3. We all believe that it is hard for him to take up other (responsible)_ now.答案:responsibilities解析 本题考查词形转换。分析句子结构可知，空格处充当动词短语take up的宾语，且还有other修饰，因此空格处应该填入名词的复数形式。由此确定答案为responsibil

32、ities。问题:4. She described the ancient city in detail because she (live) _ there for a few years.答案:had lived解析 根据句意，本句要表示过去的过去，因此用过去完成时。问题:5. Adams made the experiment with the door (lock) _.答案:locked句意：亚当斯闭门做实验。with跟一复合结构(n.+过去分词作状语，表示“门被锁着的”这一背景情况。)Part Reading Comprehension So why didnt people ju

34、llable ( 音节 ) of text in an opera is matched up with a note of music-so when translating a foreign opera into English, you have to not only maintain the number of syllables in the sentence, but also make sure that the accented syllables land on accented musical notes. Furthermore, many arias ( 唱段 )

40、文章未提及，所以排除C、D。 But now comes news of a piece of research that promises, for the first time, to open up two-way communication between man and another species. At the University of Nevada in the western United States, animated (活活跃的) conversations are being held with a young female chimpanzee (黑猩猩) ca
