参考答案一、单项选择（共10小题，满分20分）1、A【解析】【详解】句意：——你家乡的人口数是多少?——我家乡的人口很少。并且三分之二的人都是农民。考查特殊疑问词和be动词。询问人口的多少用“Whatisthepopulationof……?”，排除C、D。当主语是表示人口的百分之几、几分之几时，谓语动词用复数形式，因此要用are。故选A。2、B【解析】【详解】句意：我觉得很难跟上我的同学。但是我的老师总是鼓励我，所以我认为我应该继续下去。考查动词短语辨析。giveup放弃；carryon继续；tryon试穿；puton穿上。根据“Butmyteachersalwaysencourageme,soIthinkIshould”可知，在老师的鼓励下应该继续下去，故选B。3、A【解析】【详解】句意：杰克逊先生是个受欢迎的作家，我们都喜欢读他的书。考查物主代词。his他的；her她的；their他们的；your你/你们的。根据空后有名词books，可知需要填形容词性物主代词；又根据前一句Mr.Jacksonisapopularwriter，可知此处是指“喜欢读他的书”，故选A。4、A【解析】【详解】试题分析：句意：海伦有两个哥哥。他们都不喜欢巧克力但是她喜欢巧克力。A.Neither两者都不；B.None三者或者三者以上都不；C.Each两个或者两个以上中的每一个；D.Any任何一个。根据上句给出的是两个人物，及后文的转折，可知他们两个都不喜欢巧克力。故选A。考点：考查不定代词的用法。5、A【解析】【详解】句意：——我午餐想吃些煎饼。——对不起，先生。它们只在早餐时供应。考查时态和语态。They指代上文提到过的煎饼，与动词serve之间是动宾关系，此处用一般现在时的被动语态areserved。故选A。6、A【解析】【详解】句意：不要太依赖你的父母。你应该学会照顾好自己。考查动词短语。dependon依靠、依赖；carryon进行、开展；tryon尝试；puton穿上。根据“Youshouldlearntolookafteryourself”可知，此处指不要依赖父母，故选A。7、C【解析】【详解】句意：猫从树上摔下来，把自己弄伤了。考查反身代词辨析。himself他自己；herself她自己；itself它自己；myself我自己。根据分析句子可知，主语是cat“猫”，指的是动物，固定短语“hurtoneself”意为“伤到某人自己”。故选C。8、B【解析】【详解】句意：在英国，如果你挡了他们的路，人们不会碰你或从你身边推开。考查介词短语。ontheirway在他们的路上；intheirway挡住他们的路；bytheway顺便；inthisway用这种方式。根据“peoplewon’ttouchyouorpushpastyouifyou’re...”可知，如果你挡了他们的路，人们不会碰你或从你身边推开。故选B。9、A【解析】【详解】句意：——我觉得太累了，无法爬到山顶。——很遗憾你看不到云海了。考查连词辨析。so…that…如此……以致于……，so修饰形容词或副词；such…that…如此……以致于……，such修饰名词；too…to…太……而不能……。根据语境可知，表达的是“如此累，以致于爬不到山顶”，且修饰形容词tired，所以应填so;that。故选A。10、A【解析】【详解】句意：——汤姆变化很大。他过去很害羞，但现在很外向。——那是肯定的。人不能总是一成不变。考查情态动词。can’t不能；won’t不会；mustn’t不允许；needn’t没必要。根据“People...alwaysstaythesame.”可知，这里表示人不能总是一成不变。故选A。二、完成句子（共5小题，满分10分）11、Themountainisverybigandhigh.【解析】【详解】根据所给标点可知应用陈述句的形式，themountain作主语，is是系动词，verybigandhigh作表语。故填Themountainisverybigandhigh“这座山又大又高”。12、abroad【解析】【详解】句意：他今年要出国留学。到国外：abroad，地点副词。故填abroad。13、①.be②.finished【解析】【详解】句意：你应该在周末完成这项工作。原句中含有情态动词，变成被动语态则为含有情态动词的被动语态，结构：情态动词+be+及物动词的过去分词。finish的过去分词是finished。故填be；finished。14、Whatisthedeepestsaltlakeintheworld【解析】【详解】根据所给标点和所给单词，可知此句是what为首的特殊疑问句。what后接is；the位于最高级deepest的前面，修饰名词saltlake；intheworld作地点状语。故填Whatisthedeepestsaltlakeintheworld“世界上最深的盐湖是什么”。15、(b)lind【解析】【详解】句意：他是盲人。他什么也看不见。根据“Hecan’tseeanything.”可知他什么都看不见，所以他是盲的，结合首字母，空处应是形容词blind“盲的”，作表语。故填(b)lind。三、补全对话（10分）16、1.MayIhavethemenu/CouldIhavethemenu/Canyoushowusyourmenu2.MayItakeyourordernow3.Anythingelse4.Howmucharethey/Howmuchisit/MayIhavethebill5.Pleasewaitaminute/Pleasewaitamoment【解析】【导语】对话围绕餐厅点餐展开，A是餐厅服务员，B是顾客。【1题详解】根据答语“OK.Here’sthemenu.”，可知A是餐厅服务员，给了顾客B菜单，由此可推出上一句是顾客问服务员要菜单，可用问句“MayIhavethemenu?”或“CouldIhavethemenu?”或“Canyoushowusyourmenu?”来询问，故填MayIhavethemenu/CouldIhavethemenu/Canyoushowusyourmenu。【2题详解】根据答语“Sure,we’dlikeBeijingRoastDuck…”，可知这是顾客点餐的内容，由此可推出上一句是服务员在问顾客“现在可以点餐了吗？”，可用问句“MayItakeyourordernow?”来询问，故填MayItakeyourordernow。【3题详解】根据答语“Nomore.Thankyou.”，可知顾客就只是点了以上的食物，不需要别的了，由此可推出上一句是服务员跟顾客确认“是否还要点别的了？”，可用“Anythingelse?”来询问，故填Anythingelse。【4题详解】根据答语“That’s200yuan.”，可知服务员告诉顾客餐费是200元，由此可推出上一句顾客是问“多少钱？”，询问用餐价格，可用问句“Howmucharethey?”或“Howmuchisit?”或“MayIhavethebill?”来询问，故填Howmucharethey/Howmuchisit/MayIhavethebill。【5题详解】根据下文“Yourmealwillbereadysoon.”，可知上一句是出于礼貌，服务员会请顾客“稍等一会”，可用“Pleasewaitaminute.”或“Pleasewaitamoment.”来表达，故填Pleasewaitaminute/Pleasewaitamoment。四、阅读理解（40分）17、1.C2.A3.B4.B5.D【解析】【导语】本文主要介绍了一个大型庭院拍卖活动的时间、地点和注意事项。【1题详解】推理判断题。根据“When:Sat,Jun.26,20110:00a.m.—3:00p.m.,Sun,Jun.27,2019:00a.m.—1:00p.m.”可知，时间：201年6月26日星期六上午10点到下午3点，201年6月27日星期日上午9点到下午1点。因此周六有五个小时，周日有四个小时，周末共计九小时。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“Pooltoy.....＄5”可知，便宜的玩具为5美元。故选A。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据“Schwinbike…＄50Redpainted.Smallpartsmayneedfixing.”可知，施温自行车50美元，涂成红色，小部件可能需要维修，推断这辆红色施温自行车的一部分坏了。故选B。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据“HugeYardSale”和“cashonly”可知，现场最可能出现的应是“现在买它”的标志。故选B。【5题详解】推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了大甩卖的时间地点和商品等，因此最可能来自关于庭院销售的广告。故选D。18、1.C2.A3.B4.F5.E【解析】【导语】本文主要讲述了电动汽车的使用会成为一种趋势以及其优势。【1题详解】句意：随着人口和汽车的增加，许多国家担心他们的燃料和汽油很快就会用完，因此燃料价格已经上涨到每升近10元。根据“Withtheincreasingpopulationandcars,manycountriesworrytheirfuelorpetrol”可知，随着人口和汽车的增加，许多国家担心他们的燃料和汽油。备选词汇“runout用完”符合语境。助动词will后面用动词原形。故选C。【2题详解】句意：现在很明显，它将改变我们的生活。根据下文“Wemaymakeourenvironmentgreenerthanitisnow.我们可能会使我们的环境比现在更环保。”可知，这是在说电动汽车对人们生活的影响。备选词汇“makeadifference有影响”符合语境。故选A。【3题详解】句意：这可能取决于你的个人品味。根据上文“Ifyouwanttobuyanelectriccar,whichwouldyoulike?Thatisaquestion.如果你想买一辆电动汽车，你喜欢哪一辆？这是个问题。”可知，每个人的选择都不一样。备选词汇“dependon取决于”符合语境。情态动词may后用动词原形。故选B。【4题详解】句意：好消息是电动汽车技术可能会迅速发展。根据“Thegoodnewsisthatelectric-cartechnology（技术）may…好消息是电动汽车技术可能会……”可知，备选词汇“developquickly迅速发展”符合语境。情态动词may后用动词原形。故选F。【5题详解】句意：那么越来越多人会使用电动轿车，在不久的将来我们将实现拥有一个清洁和绿色世界的梦想。根据“Thenmorepeoplewilluseelectriccarsandwewill…ofhavingacleanandgreenworldinthenearfuture.”可知，随着越来越多的人会使用电动轿车，我们将有一个清洁和绿色世界。这是我们没有实现的梦想。备选词汇“achieveourdream实现我们的梦想”符合语境。助动词will后面用动词原形。故选E。19、1.B2.A3.A4.D【解析】【导语】本文以讲故事的形式介绍了与“吃”相关的英语习语和俚语。【1题详解】推理判断题。根据“Mymotheralwaystoldusthereisnousecryingoverspilledmilk.Thatmeansyoushouldnotgetangrywhensomethingbadhappensandcannotbechanged.”可以推出，母亲认为当遇到糟糕或不能改变的事情时，不要生气，要保持冷静。故选B。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据“Themeatandpotatoescanalsomeanthemostimportantpartofsomething.Itdescribessomeonewholikessimplethings.”可知，“Themeatandpotatoe
