试题答案与解析
1. d)【句意】这台机器是塑料制成的,所以很轻。
难点】分词结构置于句首,往往表示主句动作或行为的原因。动词不定式置于句首,往往作目的状语。本句中主句的主语和原因状语部分的动词的逻辑主语一致,故后者的动词部分应该使用被动语态,所以只有d)正确。
2. a)【句意】“在这次事故中三个人全都受伤了吗?”“没有,只有两名乘客受了伤”。
难点】问句中的three people要求用复数谓语动词,由于动作发生在过去,所以选were。答句中用了强调结构,即it was +sb.+who(that)从句。
3. b)【句意】站在海岬的顶端实际上就是站在流动的熊河里。
难点】动词不定式和动名词都可以作主语,但在主系表结构的句子中,如果表语为动词不定式,则主语也应为动词不定式;如果表语为动名词,则主语也应为动名词,二者必须统一。
4. d)【句意】他就本次足球赛所做的讲话令许多球迷烦得要死。
难点】本句中缺少一个介词,四个选项中只有d)可以用作介词,意为“有关,关于”,相当于about。
5. c)【句意】他在一种简朴生活的氛围中受教育正是他父母所希望的。
难点】本句的主语是一个带有逻辑主语的动名词短语,即c)。全句总体结构为主系表。
6. d)【句意】话一出口,他就意识到他应该保持沉默。
难点】no sooner …than常译为“一…就”,为一固定的搭配。如果no sooner 置于句首,则从句的主语和谓语必须倒装,在以上结构中,主句一般用过去完成时,从句用一般过去时,所以选项d)正确。
7. d)【句意】他走出总经理办公室,看起来好像受到了严厉的惩罚。
难点】look as if +从句这种结构,从句中的谓语一般用虚拟式,如谓语的形式为过去时,则表示与现在的事实相反,如谓语的形式为过去完成时,则表示与过去的事实相反。
8. a)【句意】厂长兼书记来参加我们的聚会。
难点】英语中,如果两个以上的名词前面只有一个定冠词the,则可认定指的是一个人或物;如果这种结构作主语,谓语动词必须用单数形式。
9. c)【句意】据悉这项工程已进行了三个月了。
难点】因为for three months是个与完成时连用的状语,且to为不定式符号,所以选c),即不定式的完成进行时。
10.b)【句意】要不是那场车祸,他们可能早就到了。
难点】but for 常与后边的名词或代词连用,用于表达虚拟的条件。其他选项无此功能。
11. b)【句意】简反应慢,可她哥哥却相反,在理解论点方面反应非常快。
grasp 意为“理解,领会”;grab 意为“抓取,攫取”;capture 意为“引起(注意);逮住”;snatch 意为“夺走,夺得”。
12. a)【句意】为了查清问题的根源,记者采访了每个目击者。
难点】root 意为“根源;根由”;stem 意为“树干;草茎;叶梗”;center意为“中心;中心点”;base意为“基底;底座”。
