容易处理那些富有挑战性的工作。第一空选exposed,因为expose

与前面的Ihechildren构成逻辑上的动宾关系，所以选过去分词；第

二空challenging意为“挑战性的”。

车来把我送到机场，这方便吗？handy意为“（东西）使用方便的或近

便/便利的"；vacant意为“真空/空白/虚的"；free的主语多为人,

故均不适合此处。

5.Ifyouvisitedourschoolthismonth,youwouldbeamazedtosee

amodernstadiumhere.

A.isconstructing

B.wereconstructing

C.isbeingconstructed

D.werebeingconstructed

答案：C考查动词的时态和语态。从整个句子结构来看，“你

来我们学校参观”是对现在情况的虚拟，而运动场是正在被建设的，

是客观存在的事实，所以用现在进行时的被动语态。

均与句意不符。

他经常漏字母。leaveout”遗漏，省略”符合句意。

11.isnopossibilityBobcanwinthefirstprizein

thematch.

A.There;thatB.It;that

C.There;whetherD.It;whether

答案：Athereisnopossibility为固定用法，意义是"...没有

侵占“。

15.Bornin1976inTaiwan,LiuQianfoundhimselftoa

magictoyinashopwhenhewassevenyearsold.

A.attractingB.attracted

C.attractD.toattract

答案：B考查句式。句意：1976年出生于台湾，在七岁时，刘

谦发现自己被一家店铺的一个魔术道具迷住了。himself与attract之

B.Theauthorlikeswalkingonawindyclifftopmost.

C.Theauthorwrotethearticletoadvertiseforthebeaches.

D.Theauthorlovesthebeachesthatarenotknowntomostpeople.

答案：D细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知作者喜欢这几处

不被大多数人知道的海滩。

2.Whichofthefollowingmapscancorrectlydescribethe

geographyposition?

(LE=Land'sEndSC=SennenCoveIS=theIslesofScilly)

答案：D细节理解题。此题可用排除法。根据第四段的内容可

知SennenCove位于Land'sEnd的东北，并且LandsEnd位于英国大

陆的最西边，且SennenCove离theIslesofScilly28英里远，由此可

判断D项正确。

3.Fromthepassagewecanknowthat.

A.Rryheristhesmallestislandintheworld

B.Samsonisanislandonwhichnomanlives

C.RushyBayhasviewsovertothepalmtrees

D.GreenBayissituatedtothesouthofRushyBay

答案：B推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“...thedesertedisland

ofSamsorT可知Samson是一座荒废的岛屿，由此可推断此岛无人居

住。

A.SecretBeachesontheBritishIsles

B.TheBeautifulBritishIsles

C.TheMostPleasurablePlaceinBritain

D.MyExperienceofSearchingBeaches

答案：A主旨大意题。文章从作者童年时代的记忆写起，逐渐

引入了英国的一些比较隐秘的海滩，这也是本文的中心话题，所以

“英国大不列颠的秘密海滩”最能概括文章大意。
