　　參考范文

　　In this picture, we can see that a woman is doing shopping in a supermarket. She chooses a pair of slippers and buys other daily necessaries. Walking beside the place where fresh fruits are sold, she suddenly finds it unnecessary to buy slippers. So she throws them away without any hesitation. Seeing what happens, a customer behind her is shocked by her behaviour.

　　We can learn much from the picture. This phenomenon often occurs around us. Most people hate it when someone does something like this. Those who throw things without thought are believed to lack responsibility to society.

　　That is to say, they only think of convenience to themselves but ignore others’ feelings. So what she does is absolutely wrong. We should establish a good situation where we can do anything delightedly. It is everybody’s duty to keep a clean environment in our world.

　　一、單項填空

　　1．—It’s said that two Chinese engineers were kidnapped by terrorists in Pakistan yesterday.

　　—Yes，________ news came as ________ great surprise.

　　A．the；the

　　B．/；/

　　C．the；a

　　D．/；a

　　解析　考查冠詞的用法。the特指上句話提到的那條消息。surprise前面加不定冠詞，表可數概念，此處指“一件令人吃驚的事”。

　　2．—You couldn’t have chosen any gift better for me.

　　—________

　　A．Oh，don’t complain about a gift.

　　B．That’s all right.I’ll give you a better one next time.

　　C．I’m glad you like it so much.

　　D．You had a gift for music，don’t you?

　　解析　考查情景交際。第一句話的意思為“你不可能給我選更好的禮物了?！币簿褪钦f我對你選的禮物非常滿意。所以答語應該表示感謝和高興。

　　3．The best clothes ________ the man ________ hat morning ________ his fine green coat and his black silk cap.

　　A．that；was wearing；were

　　B．which；wore；were

　　C．which；dressed；was

　　D．that；was having on；was

　　解析　考查定語從句、動詞辨析及主謂一致。先行詞被形容詞的最高級修飾，關系代詞應用that。have on可表示狀態，但不能用于進行進態。clothes是復數，作主語時謂語動詞應用復數。

　　4. Before the war broke out, many people ________ possessions they could not take with them.

　　A．threw away

　　B．put away

　　C．gave away

　　D．carried away

　　解析　考查對動詞短語的意義辨析。選項A的意思是“扔掉”；選項B的意思是“把……收拾好；儲藏……備用”；選項C的意思是“贈送；分發；泄漏；放棄”；選項D的意思是指“沖走”。根據句子的意思，戰爭爆發時，許多人把帶不走的東西收拾起來。于是本題的正確答案選B。

　　5．Every coin has two sides.Beautiful songs，sometimes，________ be just noise to others.

　　A．must

　　B．would

　　C．may

　　D．should

　　解析　考查情態動詞。從第一句話的意思“每個事物都有兩方面”分析，此處是拿歌來作為例子，“好聽的歌曲對別人可能就是噪音”，may表示“可能”。

　　6. The experiment has________the possibility of t

　　he existence of any life on that planet，but it does not mean there is no life on other planets.

　　A．found out

　　B．pointed out

　　C．ruled out

　　D．carried out

　　解析　句意為：這次試驗已經排除了在那個行星上存在生命的可能性，但是這并不意味著在其他行星上就沒有生命存在。find out弄清楚；point out指出；rule out排除；carry out執行。

　　7. Such poets as Shakespeare________widely read，of whose works，however，some________difficult to understand.

　　A．are；are

　　B．is；is

　　C．are；is

　　D．is；are

　　解析　句意為：一些詩人，像莎士比亞，(其作品)被廣泛閱讀，然而，其中一些作品是難以理解的。句中of whose works到句末為非限制性定語從句；第一個空的主語是some poets，故謂語動詞用復數形式；第二個空的主語是some of whose works，謂語動詞也要用復數形式。

　　8．Examination compositions, together with most business letters and government reports, are the main situations ________ formal language is used.

　　A．in which

　　B．on which

　　C．of which

　　D．for which

　　解析　考查定語從句在語境中的具體運用。先行詞為situation應用介詞in：in the situation。

　　9．—You seem to have lost your way.________？

　　—Yes.I’m looking for Wangfujing Street.

　　A．What are you looking for

　　B．Are you looking for something

　　C．Need help

　　D．Where are you doing

　　解析　由對話中的Yes可知，此處應為“你是否需要幫助”。B項可以用Yes來回答，但前后意義不吻合。

　　10．The study you have been making ________ the ancient Chinese characters is an instructive job.

　　A．to

　　B．for

　　C．of

　　D．from

　　解析　study在此作“研究”講，關于某方面的研究，用介詞of。

　　11．—What about a moon trip?

　　—What？Are you traveling that way ________ you don’t have a clear picture of the earth?

　　A．when

　　B．where

　　C．after

　　D．since

　　解析　考查狀語從句引導詞的用法。從句子的意思分析，此處用when引導時間狀語從句，表示“在你對地球還沒有完全了解的時候(情況下)”的意思。

　　12．He felt rather ________ as he was the only person who wore sportswear at the dinner party.

　　A．in place B．in the way

　　C．by the way

　　D．out of place

　　解析　考查介詞短語的用法。out of place不適當的，不恰當的，反義詞為in place；in the way礙事，擋道的。

　　13．You will have to see to ________ that the machine is in good condition before using it.

　　A．everything

　　B．yourself

　　C．all

　　D．it

　　解析　it作see to的形式賓語，代替后面的that從句，只有it有此功能。

　　14.

　　A note was on the blackboard ________

　　“All those who have a fever must leave

　　school right now”．

　　A．on which was written

　　B．said

　　C．read

　　D．reading

　　解析　考查非謂語動詞作定語。表示“在……上面寫著……”，可以用saying, reading, which said, which read或on which were written，因此只能選D。

　　15．He spent the whole day，________ in his study，________ a speech.

　　A．locked；prepared

　　B．being locked；preparing

　　C．locked；preparing

　　D．locking；prepared

　　解析　考查非謂語動詞的用法。第一空為過去分詞作定語表示被動；第二空為v.-ing作伴隨狀語，表示和謂語動詞表示的動作同時發生。
