23、rom 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. In no way _ the amount of heat.A.the temperature equalsB.does the temperature equalC.equals the temperatureD.do the temperature equal答案:B本句的意思是：

24、温度跟热量绝对不是同一回事。由于作状语的介词短语in no way具有否定意义，并被放在句首，所以主谓要倒装。再如：In no way is bean honest man他根本不是个诚实人。类似的情况还有：By no means are the goods satisfactory这些货物一点也不叫人满意。At no point has the issue been well settled这个问题根本没得到很好的解决。问题:2. Volcanoes (火山)_ as active, dormant and extinct.A.describedB.are describedC.beingD

25、.which are described答案:B本句的意思是：火山分为活火山，暂死火山和死火山。本句考查被动语态的基本用法，主语volcanoes是一复数名词，与其发生关系的是及物动词describe。选项A是主动语态，不是答案。若选C或D放入空格中，不能构成完整句子，所以也不可取。再如：This book is Lranslated into English byJohn and Henn)，这本书是由约翰和亨利译成英语的。问题:3. Were all three people in the car injured in the accident? No, _ only the two pa

26、ssengers who got hurt. A.there isB.it wereC.there wasD.it was答案:D本句的意思是：“车上这三人都在事故中受伤了吗?”“不，只有两名乘客受了伤”。本句的答句是一个强调结构，其形式为“It is(was)+被强调部分+that，在此结构中，it之后的is(was)不随被强调部分的人称或数的变化而变化，而要跟it一致。被强调的事情在过去发生时，用was。另注意：强调的对象是时间和地点等状语时，不用when或where，而要用that，但强调人时，可以用who或whom。例如：It is on Dec201999 that Macao wi

27、ll return to its mother-land澳门回归祖国的日子是1999年12月20日。It was the collage students who helped the injured woman to hospital是大学生们送那位妇女去医院的。问题:4. The movie was very boring and many people began to leave early. By the end, most people _.A.had already leftB.were already leavingC.were already leftD.had alread

28、y been leaving答案:A本句的意思是：电影很乏味，很多人早早就离开了。到电影结束前，大多数人都已走光。by的意思是“不晚于，在之前”，用于表示一种时间界限，by短语经常跟过去完成时连用。如：The car factory had turned out 10，000，000 cars by National Day这家汽车厂在国庆节以前已经生产出1000万辆轿车。值得注意的是，by短语不是只能用于过去完成时句子，它作为一个普通的介词短语，并不受什么时间限制，可以与多种时态连用。如：By next Wednesday they will have finished ninety per

29、cent of the book到下星期之前，他们将完成全书的90%，了。问题:5. When you come to Beijing, I can put you _ for the night.A.upB.downC.inD.out答案:A本句的意思是：你来北京，我可以为你安排住宿。put up在这儿表示“接待；为年供食宿；供膳宿”。如：We Call put up ten people for the night at a pinch必要时我们可以留宿十个人。put down表示“写下；记下；控制；击败；平定；取缔”等意思。put in意为“打断；插嘴；进港；进入并作短暂停留”。puto

30、ut表示“熄灭；关熄；扑灭；使忧虑；激怒；困扰；麻烦(某人)”等意思。问题:6. The children wont go there to watch the iron tower _.A.to erectB.to be erectedC.erectingD.being erected答案:D本句的意思是：那里正在竖铁塔，孩子们都去观看。本句受watch的影响，空白处应填分词形式，且需要用被动式。感观动词see，feel，notice，observe，hear，find等都可以用于此种结构。再如：The driver saw the two thieves rushing out of th

31、e shop with a large bag那位司机看到两个小偷抬着一个大包从商店冲出来。She suddenly felt something crawling up her back她突然感到有什么东西在后背上向上爬。问题:7. English words are not always spelled _.A.in the way they soundB.in the way of their soundsC.as theyre soundingD.the way they sound答案:D本句的意思是：英语单词不是总按它的发音拼写。选项A中way之后的引导词how不妥，应为that。

32、选项B的意思讲不通。选项C的时态不妥，应为that。选项B的意思讲不通。选项C的时态不妥。选项D为正确答案。the way前的介词in被省略，其定语从句they sound前的引导词that也已省略，其意思是“按照它们的发音”。再如：She set her hair the way her husband liked it她把头发做成她丈夫所喜欢的样式。当way表示“方式”的意思时，后面可以接to do，或of doing作定语。意为“做的方式”。如：You are following the right way to do(of doing)an experiment你做实验的方式是对的。问

33、题:8. Hydrogen is the fundamental element of the universe _ it provides the building blocks from which the other elements are produced.A.so thatB.but thatC.in thatD.provided that答案:C本句的意思是：氢是宇宙中的基本元素，因为它是其他元素的基本部分。从句子结构上看，空白处前是一个完整的简单句，其后面又是一个简单句，这说明需要一个连接词来连接两个简单句。从句意上看应是一个表示原因的主从连接词。选项Aso that是表示“目

34、的”或“结果”的主从连接词，明显不合句意。选项Bbut that表示“要不是；若非”，也不合句意。选项Dprovided that(以为条件，是引导条件从句的主从连接词。在这四个选项中，唯有选项Cin that(=because)能引导一个表示原因的从句，为正确答案。例如：This machine differs from the other one in that it is more efficient这部机器不同于另一部机器是由于前者效率高。问题:9. I would have come sooner but I _ that you were waiting.A.wouldn t kn

35、owB.didn t knowC.haven t knownD.don t know答案:B本句的意思是：我原本可早来的，但我不知道你一直在等着。本句可以看作虚拟条件句已被省略，原条件句为：If I had known that you were waiting由于前句是虚拟语气，从前后文的逻辑来看，but之后的句子应该是来陈述过去的事实的。所以应该选择didnt know。有许多虚拟语气句子其虚拟条件是十分含蓄的，考生需特别注意。如：Born ten days earlier，the girl would have seen his grandfather如果小女孩早出生10天，就能见到她爷

36、爷了。问题:10. You _ yesterday if you were really serious about your work.A.ought to have comeB.ought have comeC.would comeD.ought to be coming答案:A本句的意思是：如果你对工作真的很认真，你昨天应该来的。从语法角度看，选项B是错误的，可以排除。“ought to+过去分词”形式可以表示过去某时该做的事情而没做，意思为“本来该做”，所以A为正确答案。再如：You ought to have realized how dangerous it was to ride

37、 on ice你本该知道在冰上骑车是多么危险。选项c，貌似能构成虚拟语气，实则主从动词形式相互矛盾。选项D的意思讲不通。Section B Directions: There are 10 incomplete statements here.

39、ermans解析 马克思和恩格斯都是德国人。用复数形式。问题:5. June 1 is (Children)_Day.答案:Childrens解析 六月一日是儿童节。用所有格。问题:6. They had a (friend) _match yesterday.答案:friendly解析 他们昨天进行了一场友谊赛。名词前用形容词。问题:7. When (heat) _, water can be changed into vapour.答案:heated解析 水加热时，能变成水蒸气。过去分词作时间状语。问题:8. He was used to ( swim)_ in winter.答案:swi

40、mming解析 他曾习惯于在冬天游泳。“he(get)used to doing sth”意为“习惯于(干)什么”。问题:9. She could do nothing but (weep)_.答案:weep解析 除了哭泣之外她毫无办法。but后面紧接动词，一般不带to。问题:10. Mike had already (lie) _down when he came in.答案:lain解析 他进来的时候，迈克已经躺下了。lie“躺下”的过去分词为lain。Part Reading ComprehensionTask 1 Directions: After reading the follow
