参考答案与试题解析

一、语言知识及运用（共三节，满分10分）第一节单项选择（每小题1分，共10分）

1.（1分）birdsdiedbecauseofpollution.（）

A.TwomillionsB.Twomillionsof

C.MillionofD.Millionsof

【分析】数百万只鸟由于污染而死亡了。

【解答】根据数词的表达法：基数词+million,排除A和B；millionsof,排除C。根据

语境和题干结构，可知直接修饰名词"birds”，数百万只鸟由于污染而死亡了，因此“Millions

of”符合语境。

故选：D。

2.（1分）Alargeamountofricesoldtoothercountrieslastmonth.（）

A.wasB.wereC.areD.is

【分析】上个月有大量大米销往其他国家。

【解答】根据题干，可知主语rice是不可数名词，用动词第三人称单数形式。由lastmonth

可知时态是一般过去时。

故选：Ao

3.（1分）-Wouldyoupleaselendmemoney?

-Sorry,Idon'thave.（）

A.some；anyB.any；someC.some；someD.any；any

【分析】--你能借给我一些钱吗？

--抱歉，我没有一些。

【解答】some,后跟可数名词复数或不可数名词，用于肯定句或者表示得到肯定回答的

问句，any,后跟可数名词复数或不可数名词，用于否定句和疑问句，would为情态动词，

后用some,答语为否定回答，因此判断第二空用any。

故选：Ao

4.（1分）youspeak,yourspokenEnglishwillbe.（）

A.Theless；themoreB・Themore；themore

C.Theless；thebetterD.Themore；thebetter

【分析】你说得越多，你的英语口语就越好。

【解答】根据句意和所给英文可知，此题考查固定句型结构：the+比较级…，the+比

较级…，意为"越……，就越……根据常识可知，你说得越多，你的英语口语就越好。

more更多，better更好.

故选：Do

5.(1分)WhenImetnewwordsinareadingmaterialyesterday.Iinthe

dictionary.()

A.lookedthemupB.lookeditup

C.lookedupitD.lookedupthem

【分析】昨天我在一篇阅读材料中遇到了新单词。我在字典里查阅。

【解答】lookup查阅，为动词+副词短语，人称代词宾格置于动词和副词之间，newwords

为可数名词复数，代词用them。

故选：Ao

6.(1分)Igotabeautifuldressonbirthday.Ilikeditverymuch.()

A.theninethB.ninthC.myninethD.myninth

【分析】我在九岁生日得到了一条漂亮的裙子。我非常喜欢它。

【解答】根据题干，可知此处是指第九个生日，用序数词ninth.排除AC；序数词前要加

the,但是如果前面有形容词性物主代词时，省略the.

故选：Do

7.(1分)-Didyoubuyanythingelse?

-Yes,Ispentmylast10yuanonsweetsintheshop.()

A.thetastiestB.themosttasty

C.tastiestD.themosttastiest

【分析】-你还买了别的东西吗？

-是的，我把最后10元钱花在商店里最好吃的糖果上了。

【解答】tasty好吃的。根据sweetsintheshop可知指商店里最好吃的糖果，是三者或三

者以上的比较，故用形容词最高级，tasty的最高级形式是thetastiest。

故选：Ao

8.(1分)Jimwillwritecompositionthisweek.()

A.a800wordsB.a800-word

C.an800wordsD.an800-word

【分析】吉姆这周要写一篇800字的作文。

【解答】此处表示泛指，使用不定冠词a或者an,因为800英文发音以元音音素开头，

故使用an；800-word意为800字的，属于复合形容词，中间有连字符时，word使用单

数形式。

故选：Do

9.(1分)-Haveyoureadtoday'snewspaper?

-Yes.Butit*sreallyboring.Thereisinit.()

A.somethingexcitedB.nothingexciting

C.somethingexcitingD.nothingexcited

【分析】-你读今天的报纸了吗？

-是的。但它真的很无聊。里面没什么令人兴奋的。

nothingexcitingo

故选：Bo

10.(1分)Forty-twosevenissix.()

A.plusB.minus

C.multipliedbyD.dividedby

【分析】424-7=6.

【解答】考查加减乘除算式.A.plus力口；B.minus减；C.multipliedby乘以；D.divided

by除以.根据题干可知42+7=6.

故选：D.

【分析】文章介绍了有关达•芬奇《蒙娜丽莎》这幅画作的历史。

【解答】(1)B,词性辨析，A艺术，B艺术家，C有艺术天赋的，D文章，根据后文第

一个原因讲述的是关于作者达•芬奇，应该是艺术家，故答案是B.

(2)C,副词辨析，A也许，可能，动词短语，B可能的，C可能，是副词，D可能的，

形容词，根据后文需要用副词修饰recognizable,只有C项perhaps是副词，故答案是C。

(3)A,动词时态辨析,根据后文wasalsoascientist判断应使用一般过去时,达•芬奇

是一名艺术家应使用be动词，所以用is的过去式was,故答案是A。

(4)C,冠词辨析，a一(个)，用于以辅音音素开头的单词前表示泛指；an一(个)，

用于以元音音素开头的单词前表示泛指；the定冠词，表示特指；/不填。根据后文inventor

发明家是以元音音素开头的单词，句中表示泛指，所以用不定冠词an,故答案是C。

(5)D,动词短语辨析，abilitytodosth.表示有做某事的能力，根据句意，因为他有学习

人类真实形态的能力，所以用tostudy,故答案是D。

(6)C,比较级的用法，根据后文than
