语言知识
1.If there were no subjunctive mood, English________much easier to learn.(B)
A. could have been
B. would be
C. will be
D. would have been
解析:考查虚拟语气。本题表示与现在事实相反的假设。表示与现在事实相反,条件从句用一般过去时,主句使用should(would)动词原形。A could have been是对过去事实的假设,与从句所表示的现在事实不吻合;C项will不可以用于虚拟语气中;D是与过去事实相反的假设的虚拟语气主句形式。此三项均与题意不符。本题选B。
2.Loudspeakers were fixed in the hall so that everyone________an opportunity to hear the speech.(D)
A. ought to have
B. must have
C. may have
D. should have
解析:考查so that,与情态动词的搭配用法。so that既可以引导结果状语,也可以引导目的状语,本句中引导的是目的状语从句。引导目的状语从句时,日常口语中可以使用“so that+主语+will/would/can/could”。正式场合中使用“so that+主语+may/might/shall/should”。因为句子用过去时,只有D项should have符合题意。
3.My uncle is quite worn out from years of hard work. He is no longer the man________he was fifteen years ago.(D)
A. which
B. whom
C. who
D. that
解析:考查定语从句。由于先行词是the man,可先排除A项which。分析句子结构,关系代词在从句中作表语,这时只能用that引导定语从句,故选D,同时排除B和C。
4.The company has capitalized________the error of judgment made by its business competitor.(D)
A. in
B. over
C. with
D. on
解析:考查固定搭配。capitalize on“利用(别人的错误获利)”,介词on后往往接error,mistake一类的词,如:She capitalized on her opponent’s mistake and won the game.(她利用对手的失误赢得了比赛。)因此选D。
5.During the summer vacation, kids are often seen hanging________in the streets.(A)
A. about
B. on
C. over
D. out
解析:动词短语辨析。hang on是“抓紧,不挂断”的意思。hang over有“笼罩,悬挂”的意思,两者都不符合句子意思。hang out和hang about都有“闲逛”的意思;hang about指没有目的地“闲逛”,hang out指在某一地方待较长的一段时间或与某人在一起“厮混”。A选项更合适。
6.She intends to move that the committee________discussion on this issue.(B)
A. suspends
B. suspend
C. suspended
D. will suspend
解析:考查虚拟语气在名词性从句中的用法。当由表示建议、命令、要求(如suggest,propose,recommend,demand,request,urge等)的动词及它们的派生词引出有关宾语从句、同位语从句时,其从句均需使用虚拟式谓语动词,即“(should+)原形动词”。move“提议”,也属于这一类词,因此答案为B。
7.The car pulled up too fast and________on the dusty shoulder of the road.(D)
A. skated
B. slid
C. slipped
D. skidded
解析:考查近义动词词义辨析。这几个词都有“滑动”之义。skid指“车轮打滑,失控滑向一侧”,符合题意。skate指“滑冰,溜冰”。slide指“(使在平面上)滑动”;slip指“(意想不到地快速)滑出一小段距离,溜;滑倒”。
8.The President has made it clear that he is not going to change his mind. The italicized part functions as a(n) ________in the sentence.(B)
A. subject
B. object
C. adverbial
D. complement
解析:考查句子成分。本题的it在句中作made的形式宾语,而真正的宾语为that从句,因此选B。
9.I________the plumber as I learnt later that John had already phoned him.(B)
A. needn’t phone
B. needn’t have phoned
C. shouldn’t phone
D. shouldn’t have phoned
解析:考查情态动词的用法。“needn’t have+过去分词”表示“本不必做……”,言下之意是做了不必做的事,并表示过去时间,完全符合句意。A、C都表现在时间;D表示“本不该……”,表示懊悔做了不该做的事,放在句中,句意显然不合适。
10.A dentist may decide to________the tooth to prevent the recurrent trouble.(B)
A. eradicate
B. extract
C. exceed
D. extricate
解析:考查形近异义动词辨析。extract意为“(费力地)拔出;抽出;提取”,在此题中指“拔牙”。eradicate意为“根除,消灭”;exceed意为“超过,超出”;extricate意为“救出,使脱离,使摆脱”,均不符合题意。
11.Which of the following is INCORRECT?(B)
A. My child doesn’t like this book. Show her a more interesting one.
B. The old equipment works just as well as the new one.
C. I like this coat better than the one you showed me before.
D. They sent us a lot of small
