写信人：张明（考生不得署自己的真实姓名）

参考答案

1.B在酒店住一天的费用是租一星期公寓的两倍。

［考点］倍数表达法

【精析】B常用的倍数表达法有：①A+谓语+倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as+B；②A+谓语+倍数+形容词或副词的比较级+than+B。根据句意可知，此处指的是花费的钱，所以应用much来修饰。选项中只有B项符合要求。故选B

2.A这只是个小伤，没那么严重。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Aslight:轻微的；special:特别的；similar:相似的；substantial:大量的，重大的。根据句意可知，选A

3.BBrecovery：恢复，复苏，后接介词from，表示从……中恢复;relief：宽慰,安心；relaxation：放松；survival：生存。根据句意可知，选B

4.B任何人都不能剥夺学生接受教育的权利。

［考点］倒装句型

【精析】Bonnoaccount:绝不，无论如何不，位于句首时，句子要倒装，即将be动词、助动词或情态动词提至主语之前。故选B

5.DD句意：一本这样的字典对我来说已经足够了。词语搭配题。such无比较级及最高级，有不定冠词a（n）时，要放在该冠词之前；有all,no,one,few,several,some,any等时，则放在这些词之后。故应选D

6.D句意：一个人要想创业，必须要拥有一定的资金。词义辨析题。currency：通货，货币；income：收入；wealth：财产，财富；capital：资本，资金，本钱。根据句意应选D

7.DD分析句子结构可知，house之后为定语从句，修饰表示地点的先行词house，从句中的lived是不及物动词，所以应用inwhich或关系副词where引导，在从句中作地点状语。故选D

8.B如果你坚持每天练习弹钢琴，你将会成为一名非常出色的音乐家。

［考点］非谓语动词

【精析】Bstickto中的to为介词，其后应用动名词作宾语。也可将sticktodoingsth.视为固定用法，意为坚持做某事

9.C防御计算机计算出了摧毁敌人导弹的路径。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】C四个选项的意思分别为：spoil溺爱；harm伤害，损害；destroy破坏，毁坏；damage损害。根据题意可知应选C项

10.AA分析句子结构可知，此处应填非谓语动词形式。因其逻辑主语thescientists与give存在逻辑上的动宾关系，因此应用give的过去分词形式表被动，在句中作条件状语。故选A

11.A如果没有合适的软件，电脑只是一个空盒子罢了。

［考点］虚拟语气

【精析】A根据句意并分析句子结构可知，本句中的Without引出表示虚拟条件的成分，相当于Iftherewerenoappropriatesoftware，表示对现在情况的假设，所以谓语动词应用would/should/might/could+动词原形的形式。故选A

12.B这棵树和爷爷的年纪一样大，它的叶子比另外两棵树的要深。

［考点］定语从句

【精析】B分析句子结构可知，本句为非限制性定语从句，先行词是tree,引导词作定语修饰leaves,因此只能用whose。故选B

13.B父母应该与老师们合作并让自己参与到孩子的教育中。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Bget：获得，变得；involve：涉及，牵涉，使参与，常用短语为involvesb.insth.，意为使某人参与某事；find：找到；keep：保存，保持。根据句意可知，选B

14.A来自大学的优秀毕业生经常得到国际大公司的青睐。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Achase：追赶，追求；charge：控诉；offer：提供；offend：冒犯。根据句意可知，选A

15.B我想要为五月五日的音乐会预订一个特殊的座位。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Bserve：服务，例如：servethepeople意为为人民服务；reserve：保留，预订，例如：reserveaseat意为预订一个座位；preserve：保护，强调使不受破坏；conserve：保存，保护。根据句意可知，选B

16.A［翻译］我很少见到父亲像现在这样因为我取得的进步而如此高兴。

［考点］固定搭配

均不符合句意

17.B人类在处理垃圾的时候很粗心。

［考点］固定用法

【精析】B本题可用排除法进行选择。如果选择选项A，那该句应为强调句型，但是本句后半部分并不符合强调句的结构；选项C出现了who，就说明后面的整个句子是前面man的定语从句，那么该句不是一个完整的句子；而man作人类讲时，不需要加冠词，所以选项D也不符合。故选B

18.D选［D］。本题重点考查考生对句意的理解以及对所给四个短语的掌握情况。从句意来看so前的句子为本题提供了重要的线索，这半句的意思是：根据一种信仰，如果要知道真理，真理会使自己一目了然。由这句可以推理出，了解真理的方法是待而不寻求。所给四个选项表达的意思分别：［A］宁愿；［B］不得不，必需；［C］只能；［D］最好。显然只有［D］项是正确答案。hadbest的意思是"最好"，相当于hadbetter，后面用动词原形。

19.B摄入过多脂肪可能导致心脏病并引发高血压。

［考点］词义辨析

【精析】Bcontributeto:捐赠（尤指款或物），是……的原因之一，（为报纸、杂志、电台或电视节目）撰稿；attributesth.to…：把某事归因于……；attendtosb./sth.：照料，处理，专心于；devote…to…：把……用于,致力于。根据句意可知，选B

20.DD句意：如果没有他的战时经历，海明威不会写出其著名小说《永别了，武器》。虚拟语气题。分析句子结构可知，本题是虚拟语气在含蓄条件句中的应用。根据句意，本句表示与过去事实相反的虚拟，因此主句的谓语部分应用would/could/should/mighthavedone的结构，故选择D

21.JK根据空后的名词短语15years可知，空处应填介词。符合要求的选项有C、K。句意：15年来，来自伦敦大学学院的专家们一直在调查超过6,700名英国人的生活方式。故选K。

22.HH分析句子结构可知，空处应填引导词，引导一个定语从句，修饰指人的先行词friends。符合要求的选项只有H。句意：学生在上大学时可以学习并交到将持续一生的朋友。故选H。

23.JA.studied（v.学习，研究）B.continuing（v.继续，持续）C.by（prep.通过）D.who（pron.引导定语从句）E.whose（pron.引导定语从句）F.improve（v.改进，改善）G.truth（n.事实，真相）H.ignored（v.忽视，不予理睬）I.recently（adv.最近，不久前）J.those（pron.那些）K.for（prep.表示一段时间）L.less（adv.更少，较少）J分析句子结构可知，空后的who引导一个定语从句，空处为其先行词，所以空处应填指人的名词或代词。符合要求的选项只有J。those在此处指代上文中的people，此处表达的是“不去（音乐会、演出和博物馆）的那些人”。故选J。

24.D

25.E

26.C

27.D

28.A

29.A

30.A

31.D

32.A由前一句它相当小可知，空处应该是对这个小城镇的描述。所以选项中Thepopulationisonlyabout50,000.最符合语境。故选A

33.B

34.根据到访国家的要求，美国公民需要携带到访之后有效期为6个月的护照或者他们公民身份的证明文件

35.Beforeexpressingmyopinion,Iwillanalyzethehotissuefromdiverseperspectives

36.就气候而言，这个城市是居住的理想之地

37.Anyemergingthingisboundtoexperiencedifficultiesandsetbacksbeforeitreachesmaturity

38.However/Nomatterhowdifficultitmaybe,hefirmlybelievesthathewillsucceedsomeday

39.这面镜子与一位护理人员相连，该护理人员可以远程检查病人是否确实正在家中服药和刷牙

40.尽管她还是个新人，因为她的勤奋和智慧，三个月后她升职了。【精析】本句考查让步状语从句的翻译。Although可译为尽管，虽然；gotapromotion可译为升职；forherdiligenceandintelligence可译为因为她的勤奋和智慧

41.A由接下来可知，谓语动词应用begoingtodosth.的形式，表示即将做某事，所以排除B项；是否……可译成whether引导的表语从句，但不能用if，因此排除C项。D项的意思是我们应该早点去那里与题干不符，所以排除D项。综合可知选A

42.I’msureherknowledgeofEnglishisadequateforthejob

43.那位老人宁愿独居乡下，也不愿和儿子一起住在城里

44.C［考点］事实细节题

【精析】C题干大意是：根据文章，下列哪一个能够引起海啸？第三段第二句…anunstoppableforcelikeatsunamithemassivewavescreatedbyeventslikeunderwaterearthquakes…中的themassivewavescreatedbyeventslikeunderwaterearthquakes是对海啸的解释说明，by后面正是引起海啸的原因，即underwaterearthquakes。故选C

45.D［考点］主旨大意题

【精析】V根据
