85、考查介词。“a pack of”意为“一群”。故填of。【44题详解】考查定语从句。句意:它们被他们的主人训练地很好,它们的主人在照顾这些动物方面很有经验。先行词为masters(主人),且从句缺主语。故关系词填who。【45题详解】考查一般过去时。句意:我们的主人跟我们分享了很多他们的经历并推荐了一些很好的吃饭、购物和参观的地方。“and”前后两个动作“shared”与“recommended”是并列关系,时态一致。故填recommended。【46题详解】考查名词。由空格前的不定冠词an与空格后的不定式to watch可以确定空格处应该填名词形式。故填competition。【47题详解】

91、 done),情态动词would后应接动词原形。故在held前加be。2.考查冠词。句意:我们的老师鼓励我们积极参加。不定冠词所连接的单词active发音以元音音素开头,用an连接。故将a改为an。3.考查名词。句意:经过热烈的讨论,我们同意唱保卫黄河。根据句中不定冠词a可知,过去分词heated后面应修饰discuss的名词discussion的单数形式。故将discuss改为discussion。4.考查时态构成。句意:五天后,比赛在学校礼堂举行。根据句意以及时间状语Five days later可知,谓语动词应用一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,不能用过去完成时(had done)(相对时态
92、)。故删除had。5.考查非谓语动词现在分词。句意:我们穿着制服,满怀激情地唱歌。句中动词wear和谓语之间没有连词连接,是非谓语动词,且与主语之间的关系是主动关系,应用其现在分词作伴随状语。故将wear改为wearing。6.考查副词。句意:在我们的表演结束时,所有的观众都报以热烈的掌声,这让我们非常高兴。修饰动词applauded应用副词。故将warm改为warmly。7.考查定语从句。句意:在我们的表演结束时,所有的观众都报以热烈的掌声,这让我们非常高兴。分析句子可知,逗号后为非限制性定语从句,关系代词which引导从句,代指前面整句,在从句中作主语。故将what改为which。8.考查
93、ed结尾形容词和ing结尾形容词的区别。句意:由于我们精彩而鼓舞人心的表现,我们最终获得了第一名。一般来讲,以ing结尾的形容词修饰事物,以ed结尾的形容词修饰人,所修饰的名词performance属于事物。故将inspired改为inspiring。9.考查介词。句意:我们不仅为我们的胜利感到自豪,而且对合作的意义印象深刻。take pride in“以.自豪”是固定搭配。故将of改为in。10.考查连词。句意:我们不仅为我们的胜利感到自豪,而且对合作的意义印象深刻。not onlybut (also)“不仅而且”是固定词组,固定搭配。故将and改为but。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)52
