湖南省邵阳市司门中学2021年高二英语下学期期末试题含解析一、选择题1.Anearthquakeof9magnitudestruckoffthecoastofJapanonFriday,________thousandsofpeopledeadandmoremissing.A.caused

B.causing

C.havingcaused

D.tocause参考答案：B2.Whentravelersarrivedthere,thevillageseemeddeserted,theonlysignoflife________oneortwodogslyingundersometrees.A.was

B.wereC.being

D.hadbeen参考答案：C【详解】考查独立主格结构。句意：当游客到达那里的时候，这个村子似乎被遗弃了，唯一的生命迹象是躺在大树下面的一两只狗。当分词的逻辑主语和主句主语不一致的时候，可以把逻辑主语放在分词前面，构成独立主格结构。本行中beingoneortwodogslyingundersometrees的先行词是theonlysignoflife与主句主语thevillage并不一致，所以要用独立主格结构。故C项正确。【点睛】在分词用法中要特别注意动词与名词的关系，当分词做状语的时候，如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语；当二者构成被动关系，使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系，可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。如：Weatherpermitting,wewillgooutforapicnic.如果天气允许，我们就外出野餐。3.Maryspentallthedayplayinggamesonthemoblilephone,

B.lookedupC.pickedup

D.setup参考答案：C考查短语辨析。broughtup培养，提出，lookedup查字典，pickedup捡起，偶然学到，setup建立，句意：山姆只凭看见别人从事电脑工作他就偶然学会了一些计算机知识。故选C。12.—Wereyoulateforthemeetingyesterday?—No.ButforthefactthatTom________me,Iwouldhaveforgottenallaboutit.A.hadreminded B.wouldremindC.hasreminded D.reminded参考答案：D考查时态。上句：昨天会议你迟到了吗？下句：没有，要不是汤姆提醒我，我会忘记一切关于（会议的事）。此处指过去客观的一件事情，用一般过去时态，故选D。13.．Thewildflowerslookedlikeasoftorangeblanket_________thedesert.

C.lastsunnyfew

D.fewsunnylast参考答案：B略15.Seniorfamilymembers,especiallyparents,shouldcreateanatmosphere________wouldencouragetheirchildrentoreadbooks.A.that B.what C.where D.when参考答案：A【详解】考查定语从句。句意：年长的家庭成员，尤其是父母，应该创造一种鼓励孩子读书的氛围。此处为定语从句，关系词指代先行词atmosphere，并在从句中作主语，故A项正确。【点睛】定语从句的解题关键是要分两步走，一是找准先行词，二是判断关系词在从句所做的成分，例如本题，关系词指代先行词atmosphere，并在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词that，试与下面这个例句作比较，Ithinkourschoolshouldcreatearelaxingatmospherewherewestudentscanstudywithoutstress.我认为我们学校应该营造一种轻松的氛围，在那种氛围下我们学生可以毫无压力地学习。（先行词同样为atmosphere，但从句中不缺主宾表，缺少地点状语，所以用关系副词where）29.Thenewsagencyhad
