31、出，不计入总词数。2.词数：120 左右。Hello Peter ! How are you going these days?Look ing forward to heari ng from you!Love,Li Hua参考答案课时作业（四十）I.1.D 句意：一一老师，我在。一一请听好。我一直在考虑让你父母来学校，但我想 先听听你的意见。have been con sideri ng是现在完成进行时，表示从过去开始的一个动作一直持续到现在，并且还在进行。2.B 考查非谓语动词。句意：这个小男孩被最新的电动玩具所吸引，站在橱窗前一动 也不动。句子的主语 the little boy 与

32、attract 构成逻辑上的被动关系，故用过去分词。to be done 表示动作尚未发生。3.D 考查副词辨析。此处 somehow 意为“不知怎的”。句意：他已打算妥协，可是不 知怎的在最后的时刻他又改变了主意。84.D not to mention 更不必说，不必提及； inaddition to 除之外； on accountof 由于，因为，为了.的缘故； regardless of不顾，不管。根据句意可知D 项正确。5.A 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这些天政府发布了几项将会加快制造业发展的经济政策。accelerate 意为“加速，提前”； accomplish 意为“完成，实现”；

33、accumulate 意为“积累，增加”；approve 意为“批准，赞成”。根据句意可知A 项正确。6. C assuming that“假定”为固定句 型。类似表达有：providing/supposing （that）7.B 考查虚拟语气。if only “要是就好了”， 后用虚拟语气。答句句意：要是我没对他说那些太严厉的话就好了。表示和过去事实相反，故用过去完成时。& C 考查短语辨析。regardless of意为不考虑，不顾及”。not to mention 意为“更别提，更别说”；apart from 意为“除了”，所以 A B 项意思不对；D 项搭配不当。9.A 考查非谓语。此

34、处 only to do/be done表示意料之外的结果；现在分词作结果状语则表示自然的结果。这里George 和 tell 之间是被动关系，因此用 to be told。句意：战争后乔治回到家，结果被告知妻子已经离开了他。10.B 考查非谓语。句意：展望未来，我们希望我们的教学体系得以改变。look ahead 意为“展望未来，为将来设想”；look around 意为“向四处看”；watch out 意为“注意， 当心”；D 项无此搭配。11.C 考查动词短语辨析。句意：一一我厌烦了无休止的考试。 一一振作起来，David。 坚持到高考结束。be fed up with 意为“厌倦，受够

35、了，饱受”。 catch up with 赶上；come up with 提出(想法、办法等)；put up with 忍受，容忍。12. C 考查不定式的时态。句意：据说汤姆最近在设计一种新的电脑程序，但我不知道他什么时候完工。后半句暗示“设计”这一动作还在进行，故用不定式的现在完成进行式。13.D 句意： 临近的居民都拍手称赞政府关于关闭这个印染工厂的决定。delete 删除；9identify识别；interrupt打断；applaud 赞赏。14.A 考查交际用语。从答语中的“ rm going up there, too. ”可知，答话人认为两个人都去 Appleby 是一件极为巧合

36、的事，故用What a coincidenee!15. A 考查独立主格结构。主句主语跟后面状语部分主语不一致，前后没有连词，说明应该用独立主格结构。date back to “追溯到.，一般不用被动，它与逻辑主语some(trees)应该是 主动关系，因此用现在分词。n.A这是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了第一本牛津词典的编写过程，以及 Minor 对词典的编写工作所作出的巨大贡献。16. D 细节理解题。从最后一段的“ Minor died in 1920, seven years before the firstedition of theOxford English Dictionarywas

37、 comp leted. ”看出 A 选项是不正确的；从第二段的“ Murray had to find volunteers from Britain,the United States, and theBritish colonies to search every n ewspaper, magaz ine, and book ever writte n inEn glish. Hun dreds of volun teers resp on ded, in clud ing William Chester Minor. Dr.Minor was an America n surge o

38、n who had served in the Civil War and was now liv ingin En gla nd. ”看出牛津词典是集体智慧的结晶；由第一段最后一句中It would in eludeevery En glish word possible ” 可知，C 项不正确。故选 D。17.C 细节理解题。从第三段的Minor joi ned the army of volu nteers sen di ng words and quotatio ns to Murray ”看出， Mi nor提供了大量词汇和引文。故选C。18.A 细节理解题。从第四段的 Murray

39、 fin ally decided to travel to Crowthornehimself. Whenhe arrived, he found Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for theCrimi nally In sa ne.”看出，是由于Mi nor 患精神病被关进医院里，所以没有办法去牛津。故选A。19.B 细节理解题。从第二段 Minor 自愿加入编词典这个活动可知，他对此很感兴趣，与 Murray 有着共同的兴趣，再从文章倒数第三段的 Murray and Minor became frie

40、nds, shari ng their10love of words.

41、onsin 20 years. ”看出他的学者风范。故选D。21.C 主旨大意题。文章一开始主要介绍由来自英国、美国和英国殖民地的志愿者参加牛津词典的编写工作，后半部分主要写编者Minor 对词典的编写工作所作出的巨大贡献。故选 CoB这是一篇讲述日本学前教育的材料，文章指出日本学前教育的侧重点和对集体主义的重 视，以及教育内容的丰富多样性。22.C 事实纟田节题。根据第一段 the answers provided by Japanese preschoolsare not the ones America ns expected to find. In most Japa nese pre

42、schools, surpris in gly little stress isput on academic in struct ion.”可知，美国人的看法应该是日本的学前教育非常重视专业技术知识的传授，因此C 项是正确答案。23 .
