25、表条件；although(虽然)表让步；until(直到才)表时间；before(在以前)也表时间。until和before两者的差别如下：如果主句或简单句中的谓语动词为非延续性动词的肯定式，只能用before，不可以用until；如果主句或简单句中的谓语动词为延续性动词或表示状态的动词的否定式，要用 before；在it wasnt until.that强调结构中，不用before；not until可以位于句首，表示强调，句子主谓要倒装。故应选答案C。问题:2.

28、ad I feltB.I feltC.did I feelD.I had felt答案:C本题测试的是倒装句的用法。全句的意思是：“那晚之前我从没有体会到我的力量之大。”具有否定意义的词或否定形式的词居于句首时，全句主谓用倒装，这类词常用的有never(从不)，rarely(很少)，scarcely(几乎不)，hardly. when.(一就)，seldom(很少)，hardly(几乎不)等。根据以上分析，应选答案C。问题:5.

29、as stoppedD.would stop答案:A本题测试的是虚拟语气的用法。全句的意思是：“如果地球突然间停止转动，那么我们都将飞出去。”与现在事实相反的虚拟语气格式为“If+动词过去式，主语+would +动词原形”。本句则是典型的与现在事实相反的虚拟语气。根据句意，应选答案A。问题:6.

30、引导的方式状语从句中，可以用于陈述语气，表示(可能)符合事实的情况；也可以用虚拟语气，表示不符合事实或与事实相反的情况。在本句中因为与过去事实相反，所以应用虚拟语气，从句用“had+过去分词”结构。根据句意，应选答案B。问题:7.

31、状语从句，有“鉴于某个事实，原因是”的意思。because表示强烈的因果关系；as表示由于；for连接并列句，常表示逻辑推理的原因。根据句意，应选答案C。问题:8.

33、d come to class.A.could have sleptB.might have sleptC.sleptD.have slept答案:A本题测试的是虚拟语气的用法。全句的意思是：“我希望今天早上能多睡会儿，可是不得不起来上学。”wish后跟随的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，表示与过去事实相反的情况时，用“would/could+have+过去分词”，在虚拟语气中表示愿望。might表示推测和假设。根据句意，应选答案A。Section BDirections: There are 10 incomplete statements here.

34、blank with the proper form of the word given in the brackets. Write the word or words in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.问题:1.

35、e等感官动词和使役动词后，动词不定式作宾语补足语时不带to。问题:2. The manager has made all the (arrange) _ for the meeting.答案:arrangements本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“经理已经做好了会议的所有安排。”句中明显缺少一个名词做made的宾语，故应将动词arrange变为名词形式 arrangements，由于前面有all，所以应为复数。问题:3. I am sorry; some of the books in your list are not (avail) _ at the time being.答案:av

36、ailable本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“对不起，您书单中的一些书目前我们没有。”动词加上后缀-able，构成形容词。available意为“可以买得到的”。问题:4. Ive just begun collecting coins. My collection is very small because I am a (begin) _.答案:beginner本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“我刚刚开始收集钱币。因为我是一个新手，所以收集量很小。”I am a 后面接表示人的名词，所以应该把begin变成 beginner(初学者)。问题:5. As all the stude

37、nts are confident in themselves, they are less (like) _ to cheat.答案:likely本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“因为所有学生都充满着自信，他们是不可能作弊的。”like可以为介词，表示“像，相似”；可以为动词，表示“喜欢，喜好”；又可以为形容词，表示“相似的，相象的”；但是likely是形容词，意为“可能的”。be likely to do sth意为“可能做某事”。根据句意，应填likely。问题:6. By the time their first child was born, they (live) _ in T

38、oronto for five years.答案:had lived本题测试的是动词时态的用法。全句的意思是：“到他们的第一个孩子出生时，他们已经在多伦多住了5年了。”by the time, for five years表示一段时间，应用完成时态，同时根据句意，“孩子出生”是过去发生的动作，“在伦敦居住”是在这之前，也就是“过去的过去”，所以句子应用过去完成时。问题:7. Take it (easily) _.答案:easy本题测试的是词性转换。take it easy是固定搭配，意为“别着急”。问题:8. Mr. Daniel is our (finance) _ advice.答案:fi

39、nancial本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“Danial先生是我们的金融顾问。”financial是finance的形容词，作名词advice的定语。问题:9. Her eyes were clear and blue, and her voice was (surprise) _ strong as he greeted me.答案:surprisingly本题测试的是词性转换。全句的意思是：“当她向我打招呼时，她的眼睛很清彻、很蓝，声音也惊奇地响亮。”副词surprisingly修饰形容词strong。问题:10. There (be) _ one apple and three

40、pears in the icebox.答案:is本题测试的是主谓一致的用法。全句的意思是：“在冰箱里有一个苹果和三个梨。”在there be句型中，be动词后的第一个并列成分带有不定冠词或one时，谓语动词根据就近一致原则用单数形式。Part Reading ComprehensionDirections: This part is to test your reading ability.
