银行系统招聘考试(词汇与语法)模拟试卷3
词汇与语法结构
1.What would have happened,__________, as far as the river bank?(C)
A. Bob had walked farther
B. if Bob should walk farther
C. had Bob walked farther
D. if Bob walked farther
解析:根据主句的谓语动词would have happened,可以断定要用虚拟语气。当条件状语从句中的if省略时,要倒装。如果鲍勃走得远一点。走到岸边,会发生什么事呢?
2.He sent me an E-mail,__________to get further information.(B)
A. hoped
B. hoping
C. to hope
D. hope
解析:现在分词hoping表示与send me an E-mail同时发生的动作。不定式作目的状语时,其正确形式:He sent me an E-mail,to get further information。
3.Author Ken Yabuki wrote a magazine article based on__________recent visit to Iceland.(B)
A. him
B. his
C. himself
D. he
解析:考查代词。句意:作家Ken Yabuki基于他近来对冰岛的访问写了一篇杂志文章。空后面的核心词汇visit在此为名词,故应该用形容词性物主代词his来限定。him为宾格代词,作宾语;himself为反身代词,作宾语和同位语;he作主语。
4.But the_________thing is that the majority of Muslims in Britain are moderates.(C)
A. gentle
B. heavy
C. comforting
D. convincing
解析:考查形容词辨析。句意:但让人欣慰的是,英国大多数的穆斯林都是温和派。gentle温和的,文雅的;heavy沉重的,繁重的;comforting令人欣慰的;convincing令人信服的,有说服力的。根据句意可知comforting最合适。
5.All governments across the world have been establishing rules to tell us___________to stay inside the boundary of right.(C)
A. when
B. where
C. how
D. what
解析:考查宾语从句引导词。句意:各国政府制定规则告诉大家如何停留在权利边界以内。这里主要强调方式,故用引导词how。
6.Josh graduated with his master’s degree in space studies and planetary sciences, but after years of working odd jobs and barely_________, he decided to go back to get his teaching license.(C)
A. putting on the back burner
B. breaking new ground
C. making ends meet
D. proving his mettle
解析:考查短语辨析。句意:乔希获得了空间研究和行星科学的硕士学位,但在打了多年零工并且勉强维持生计后,他决定回去考教师资格证。put on the back burner“暂时搁置”;break new ground“开辟新天地”;make ends meet“收支相抵,量入为出”;prove one’s mettle“证明自己的勇气”。根据上文的working odd jobs(打零工)可知他的收入很少,故本题选C。
7.A letter sent by airmail should arrive____________the one sent by regular mail.(D)
A. quicker before
B. fast than
C. rapidly than
D. sooner than
解析:考查形容词辨析和比较级。句意:航空信应该比平邮信到得快。比较四个选项。than与形容词或副词的比较级连用。由此可直接排除A、B、C。根据语境.航空信会比平邮信先到,指时间上更快,因此用sooner than。选项中这几个词都有“快的、迅速的”的含义,但用法略有不同。quick可作形容词或副词,常常表示反应快。故常译作“迅速的,敏捷的”等,一般指动作敏捷迅速,毫不延迟;fast和quick基本同义,但更偏向于指运动速度快,可作形容词或副词;rapid比fast和quick正式,常指运动本身。侧重速度惊人;soon指时间上的快。故本题选D。
8.When prices go up, sales go down. And when the sales go down, factories cut production and__________workers.(B)
A. lay out
B. lay off
C. lay against
D. lay on
解析:考查动词短语辨析。句意:当价格上涨时,销量就会下降;当销量下降时,工厂就会减产、裁员。lay out“展开;布置”;lay off“解雇”;lay against“靠着……”;lay on“(尤指慷慨或盛情地)提供(食物、娱乐、服务等)”。结合常识可知,当经济形势不好时,工厂会裁员,故本题选B。
9.In old industrial areas across the United States, immigration is the__________for economic growth.(A)
A. basis
B. theory
C. principle
D. background
解析:考查名词辨析。句意:在美国各地的老工业区,移民是经济增长的基础,basis“基础”;theory“理论”;principle“原则”:background“背景”。移民会为经济增长带来劳动力,是经济增长的基础,其他三项均不符合句意。故本题选A。
10.A scientist often reaches a dead end that leads to no alternatives in research and has to go back and determine if all the___________made are true to how the world operates.(D)
A. principles
B. theories
C. equations
D. assumptions
