答案：thatis

解析：本题考查定语从句。由于先行词是thebook，指物，且在从句中作主语，因此使用关系代词that。完整的定语从句为：Theteacheraskedustoreadthebookthatisassignedbytheschool.4、She__________(go)tothelibrarylastweekifshehadmoretime.

答案：hadgone

解析：本题考查虚拟语气。根据时间状语lastweek和if条件句，可以判断句子表示与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，因此主句谓语动词应该使用“had+过去分词”的形式。完整的句子是：Shehadgonetothelibrarylastweekifshehadmoretime.5.Ihaveneverseensuchabeautiful__________before.A.viewB.sightC.sceneD.pictureAnswer:B

Explanation:Thecorrectansweris“were”becausethesentenceisintheconditionalmood,whichisusedtoexpressahypotheticalsituation.Inthesecondconditionoftheconditional,theverb“be”isconjugatedto“were”forthesubject“I.”7、—I’mgoingtotheparkthisweekend._______great!A.SoundsB.SoundC.TosoundD.SoundingAnswer:AExplanation:本题考查的是感官动词的用法和主谓一致。题干中“I’mgoingtotheparkthisweekend”是一个表示将来计划的句子，回答时需要用一种方式来评价这个计划。选项A“Sounds”是感官动词“sound”的第三人称单数形式，用于描述听起来如何，符合句意“听起来很棒！”。而选项B“Sound”是动词原形，不适用于此处的第三人称单数语境；选项C“Tosound”是动词不定式形式，常用于表示目的或结果，不适用于此处的评价语境；选项D“Sounding”是现在分词形式，常用于进行时态或作为非谓语动词，同样不适用于此句。因此，正确答案是A。8、It’stime_______class.Let’sstoptalking.A.forB.toC.inD.atAnswer:AExplanation:本题考查的是固定句型“It’stimeforsth.”和“It’stimetodosth.”的区别。题干中“It’stime”表示是时候了，后面需要接名词或动名词短语来具体说明是时候做什么。选项A“for”用于“It’stimeforsth.”句型中，表示“是时候做某事了”，其中“sth.”是名词或名词短语，此句中“class”是名词，符合语境。选项B“to”通常用于“It’stimetodosth.”句型中，但此句后面跟的是名词“class”，不是动词不定式，所以B错误。选项C“in”和选项D“at”都是介词，但在此语境下都不适用于“It’stime”句型，因此排除。所以，正确答案是A。9、Completethefollowingsentencewiththecorrectformoftheverbinbrackets.
