D.Idon’tthinkso【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查情景交际用语辨析。句意：——我们学校下周末要组织一场帮助社区里老人的志愿活动。你想加入我们吗？——听起来不错。咱们先制定一个关于能为他们做些什么的计划吧。A.Noway没门；B.It’snothing没什么；C.Soundsgreat听起来不错；D.Idon’tthinkso我不这么认为。回应者后面说要一起制定计划，说明是愿意加入志愿活动的，Soundsgreat符合这种积极回应的语境。故选C项。2.________youfullyunderstandtheinstructionsoftheexperiment,yourlifewon’tbesecured.A.When B.If C.Once D.Unless【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查连词词义辨析。句意：除非你完全理解实验的指导，否则你的生命将无法得到保障。A.When当……时候；B.If如果；C.Once一旦；D.Unless除非。根据句意可知，此处表达的是“除非”的意思，应用连词unless引导条件状语从句，相当于ifnot。故选D项。3.Thankstomyscienceteacher’screativeteaching________,wenowhaveabetterideaoftheproject.A.souvenirs B.majorities C.strategies D.envelopes【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：多亏了我的科学老师富有创意的教学方法，我们现在对这个项目有了更清晰的认识。A.souvenirs纪念品；B.majorities大多数；C.strategies策略，方法；D.envelopes信封。根据上文“Thankstomyscienceteacher’screativeteaching”指富有创意教学方法，故选C。4.Wemaycomeacrossoccasions______wewanttosearchforsomeinformationbutitisn’tavailableonline.A.that B.which C.when D.what【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：我们可能会遇到某些场合，在这些场合中我们想搜索一些信息，但这些信息在网上无法找到。此处引导定语从句，先行词为occasions，在定语从句中做时间状语，关系副词为when。故选C项。5.Anancienttemple________backtotheNorthernQiDynastywasdestroyedinflameslastmonth,________concernsabouttheeffectiveprotectionofculturalremains.A.dating;causing B.dating;caused C.dated;causing D.dated;caused【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：一座可追溯到北齐时期的古庙上个月在大火中被毁，这引发了人们对文化遗迹有效保护的担忧。第一空，“datebackto”与“Anancienttemple”是主动关系，要用dating作后置定语；第二空，古庙被毁这件事“引发”担忧是主动的结果，要用现在分词causing作结果状语。所以第一空选dating，第二空选causing。故选A项。6.________thewholefamilygettogetherduringtheSpringFestivalisdeeplyrootedinChineseculture.A.That B.What C.When D.Which【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查名词性从句。句意：全家人春节团聚深深植根于中国文化之中。分析句子结构可知，“________thewholefamilygettogetherduringtheSpringFestival”为主语从句，且句子成分完整，句意通顺，所以应用连接代词that来引导，that只起连接作用，无实义，在从句中也不作任何句子成分。B.what所……，……的事情；C.when何时，……的时候；D.which哪一个，它们在引导名词性从句时，在句中均有实际意义，且在句子中需充当成分，不符合语境语法。故选A项。7.Peterhasneverandeveryoneofushastomakemoreeffortstomakeupforhislaziness.A.looselipssinkships B.letoffsteamC.pullhisweight D.risetohisfeet【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：彼得从来没有尽过自己的责任，我们每个人都不得不付出更多的努力来弥补他的懒惰。A.looselipssinkships言多必失，祸从口出；B.letoffsteam发泄怒火，宣泄情感；C.pullhisweight尽到自己的责任，尽自己的本分；D.risetohisfeet站起来。根据“everyoneofushastomakemoreeffortstomakeupforhislaziness”可知，此处指彼得从来没有“尽到自己的责任”，故用pullhisweight。故选C。8.—Iwateredalltheflowersinthegardenthismorning.—Oh,you________.It’sgoingtorainthisafternoon.A.needn’twater B.mustn’thavewateredC.couldn’thavewatered D.needn’thavewatered【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查情态动词。句意：——我早上浇了花园里所有的花。——哦，你本不必浇的。今天下午要下雨。A.needn’twater不需要浇水（表现在）；B.mustn’thavewatered(无此用法)；C.couldn’thavewatered不可能浇过；D.needn’thavewatered本不必做某事（但实际上已经做了）。根据上文“Iwateredalltheflowersinthegardenthismorning”以及下文“It’sgoingtorainthisafternoon”可知，下午要下雨，本不必给花浇水的。故选D项。9.—Doyouhaveanyplansforthisweekend?Iwonderifwecangohikingtogether.—Sorry,Ican’t.I________mylittlecousinattheairportatthattime.A.wouldmeet B.willbemeeting C.ammeeting D.havemet【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查动词时态。句意：——这个周末你有什么计划吗？我想问问我们能不能一起去徒步旅行。——抱歉，我不能去了。那个时候我要去机场接我的小表弟。上句询问这周末的计划（将来的时间）。下句回“对不起，我不行”，说明周末有别的安排。时间状语是“atthattime”（在那个时候），指的是周末去远足的那个具体时间点。表示在将来某个具体时间点正在进行的动作，需要用将来进行时。将来进行时的结构是：willbe+动词-ing。故选B项。10.bythebeautyofnature,thegirlfromLondondecidedtospendanothertwodaysonthefarm.A.Attract B.Attracted C.Attracting D.Beingattracted【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：被大自然的美景所吸引，这位来自伦敦的女孩决定在农场再待两天。本句已有谓语动词decided，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词作状语；由空后“bythebeautyofnature”可知，空处动词attract与其逻辑主语thegirl之间是被动关系，所以空处需用过去分词attracted作状语，句首单词首字母需大写。故选B。11.Ipromiseto________myneighbourbywateringhergardenwhileshewasonvacation.A.letdown B.helpout C.turndown D.diedown【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查动词短语词义辨析。句意：我答应在邻居度假时帮她给花园浇水。A.letdown使失望；B.helpout帮助；C.turndown拒绝；D.diedown逐渐消失，减弱。根据句意可知，邻居度假时，我答应帮她给花园浇水，“helpout”意为“帮助”，符合语境。故选B项。12.Theanalysisshowsthatplastics,particularlythosethat__________fast,arecontributingtotheclimatechange.A.breakoff B.breakdownC.breakup D.breakout【答案】B【解析】【分析】【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：分析表明，塑料，尤其是那些分解很快的塑料，正在对于气候变化创作出贡献。A.breakoff突然停止；B.breakdown分解；C.breakup打碎；D.breakout爆发。根据“arecontributingtotheclimatechange.”可知这里意思是塑料，尤其是那些分解很快的塑料，正在对于气候变化创作出贡献。故选B。13.Theresultofthisstudyprovedthe________assumptionmadebythescientistmonthsagowastrue.A.practical B.precious C.potential D.previous【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这项研究的结果证明了科学家几个月前的假设是正确的。A.practical实际的；B.precious宝贵的；C.potential可能的；D.previous以前的。根据后文“assumptionmadebythescientistmonthsagowastrue”可知，此处指之前提出的假设。故选D。14.Thedictionaryaswellasthegrammarbooksthat________bookmarksinthem________Jane.A.has;belongto B.have;belongstoC.have;isbelongedto D.has;arebelongedto【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查主谓一致及语态。句意：字典和有书签的语法书是属于Jane的。第一空处是由that引导的定语从句，其先行词为为books，故谓语动词要用复数形式。第二空处应为整个句子的谓语，其单复数形式应与aswellas前面的主语保持一致，又因belongto无被动结构，且句子为一般现在时。故选B。15.—WhataboutgoingtoseethelatestChineseblockbusterNezha2?—______.Iftimepermits,Imaygotoseemygrandmawithmymother.A.Don’tmentionit B.Itdepends C.Ican’tagreemore D.Itdoesn’tmatter【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查情景交际。句意：——去看最新的中国大片《哪吒2》怎么样？——视情况而定。如果时间允许，我可能会和妈妈去看望奶奶。A.Don’tmentionit不客气；B.Itdepends视情况而定；C.Ican’tagreemore完全同意；D.Itdoesn’tmatter没关系。根据下文的“Iftimepermits,Imaygotoseemygrandmawithmymother.”可知，回答者态度不确定，所以此处使用Itdepends符合语境。故选B项。第二节:完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。Agroupofgraduatesgottogethertovisittheirolduniversityprofessor.Theconversationsoonturnedinto____16____aboutstressinworkandlife.Beforeofferinghisguestscoffee,theprofessorwenttothekitchenand____17____withalargepotofcoffeeanda____18____ofcups—porcelain(瓷器的),plastic,glass,crystal,someplain-lookingandcheap,someexquisiteand____19____—tellingthemto____20____themselvestothecoffee.Whenallthestudentshadacupofcoffeeinhand,the____21____said:“Ifyouhavenoticed,allthenice-lookingexpensivecupshavebeen____22____,leavingbehindtheplainandcheapones.____23____itisnormalforyoutowantonlythebestforyourselves,thatisthe____24____ofyourproblemsandstress.Be____25____thatthecupitselfaddsnoqualitytothecoffee.Inmostcasesitisjustmoreexpensive,andinsomecasesevenhideswhatwedrink.Whatallofyoureallywantiscoffee,notthecup.Butyouconsciouslywentforthebestcups,andthenyoubegan____26____eachother’scups.”Lifeisthecoffee;thejobs,moneyandpositioninsocietyarethecups.Theyarejusttoolstoholdand____27____life.Thetypeofcupwehavedoesnot____28____,norchangethequalityoflifewelive.Sometimes,by____29____onlyonthecup,wefailtoenjoythecoffee.Don’tletthecupsdriveyou.Enjoythecoffee____30____.16.A.complaints
