语言知识
1.________dull he may be, he is certainly a very successful top executive.(D)
A. Although
B. Whatever
C. As
D. However
解析:考查表示让步的连接词的用法。Although后面的从句接正常语序,应当说成:Although he may be dull,故A可排除。as和though也可以表示让步。此时应说成Dull as/though he may be,故C也不对。Whatever=No matter what,后面接名词,此处是形容词dull,故B也不对。D项However=No matter how(无论多么),后接形容词,符合本句要求。
2.In the sentence \\(D)
A. the object.
B. an adverbial.
C. a complement.
D. the subject.
解析:考查主语的用法。It’s no use doing sth.中,It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的doing sth.,因此waiting for her在句子中是主语。答案是D。
3.Which of the following prepositional phrases is an adverbial of concession?(C)
A. They used the box for keeping treasures.
B. I stepped aside for her to get in first.
C. For all that he seems to dislike me, I still like him.
D. The parents bought a birthday cake for their son.
解析:选项C的前半部分意为“他似乎不喜欢我”,后半部分意为“我仍喜欢他”,两者在逻辑上存在转折让步的关系,因此C为答案。
4.She was so fat that she could only just________through the door.(C)
A. assemble
B. appear
C. squeeze
D. gather
解析:答案为C。题目中的so…that表明了胖的结果是挤不进门,C项squeeze意为“挤”,故为答案。assemble“集合,聚集”;appear“出现,呈现”;gather“聚集,集合”。
5.Which of the following sentences indicates a REQUEST?(B)
A. Please come in.
B. Do me a favor please.
C. Don’t touch it
D. Let’s go home.
解析:考查祈使句。祈使句通常可以表示请求,命令、许可、建议等。本题中,A项表示允许,B项表示请求,C项表示命令,D项表示建议,因此答案选B。
6.The following are all correct responses to \\(C)
A. Likewise
B. Me too
C. So am I
D. I’m very pleased to meet you too
解析:考查日常交际表达法。在表示“我也很高兴认识你”时,A、B、D都是正确用法,只有C不合适,因为C用完整的句子表达时其实是:I’m very pleased to meet me too.因此不正确。但在下面的情况中“So am I”就是正确的:“Ann is fond of music”“So am I.”这里的“So am I.”相当于“I am fond of music too.”。
7.The company is on the verge of bankruptcy, and hundreds of jobs are________.(C)
A. in trouble
B. in vain
C. at stake
D. at odds
解析:考查介词固定搭配。at stake意为“濒于险境,处于危险状况下”,符合题意。in trouble表示“正/已处于困境或险境中”,in vain意为“白费地,徒劳无益地”;at odds意为“和……有矛盾,与……不一致”,均不合题意。
8.Which of the following reflexive pronouns is used as an appositive?(D)
A. In despair, the young boy had hanged himself.
B. His name is James but he calls himself Jim.
C. He’s lived by himself since his wife died.
D. It was the President himself who opened the door.
解析:考查反身代词的作用。D中himself是表语the President的同位语,故正确。A项中的himself作动词hanged的宾语;B项中的himself是动词called的宾语;C项中的himself作介词by的宾语。
9.I’ve learned from my past mistakes in promoting my project and I’m sure I can________this time.(A)
A. pull it off
B. pull it through
C. pull it down
D. pull it up
解析:考查动词短语的用法。pull sth.off意为“成功做了(难事等)”,符合题意。pull through的意思是“(使)从疾病/负伤中活下来;(帮助)克服困难,渡过难关”,一般为pull sb.through;pull sth.down意为“拆毁(建筑物等)”;pull sth.up表示“(使)停住”。
10.Which of the following sentences contains subjunctive mood?(C)
A. I wish to make a complaint.
B. We’ll stay at home if it rains.
C. I wish that I could afford a new car.
D. Polls suggest that few citizens trust the government.
解析:考查虚拟语气。A项和B项都为一般的陈述句,因此排除。虽然suggest表“建议”时,其后接的宾语从句用“(should)+动词原形”型虚拟语气,但本句中的suggest,意为“表明”,为陈述句,故排除D。答案选C,该句所表达的主观愿望与现在事实相反,即“我现在买不起新车”。
11.Miss Anne had a weak heart. She________a heart attack.(D)
