59、ina celebrate National Day. Let me tell you._Yours，Li Hua综合能力训练卷(三)第一部分第一节1D考查固定句式。题中and是关键词，去掉插入语I think，可发现考查“名词短语and”这一结构，名词短语表示条件，如果去掉and，则选A或B，构成条件从句。此句还可写成：Make great efforts, I think, and you will settle the problem.构成“祈使句and简单句”结构。ks5u2D考查冠词用法。have a gift for对有天赋；second to none为固定短语，意为“不比任何人
60、差，首屈一指”。3D考查主谓一致。分析句子的结构可以看出，“we had been looking forward to”是定语从句，修饰句子的主语“the trip”。由此可见，空格部分在句中作谓语，结合从句的时态，可知应该用一般过去时。句意：使我们失望的是，我们盼望已久的旅行竟在在大雨中开始了。4C考查强调句型。句意：“你昨晚给谁打电话了？”“我姐姐，怎么啦？”本句是对特殊疑问词who的强调，且第一句的时态为过去时，原句应该是“Who did you call yesterday evening？”在原句中加入was it that后，句式变为“Who was it that you ca
61、lled yesterday evening？”故答案选C项。ks5u5D考查动词的时态。句意为：“你上个星期六为什么没有和我们一起去看电影？”“哦，对不起。但是我已经看过了。”所以应该用完成时。根据情景，背景时间是上星期六，因此，本句用过去完成时。6D考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，先行词为Wuhan，故用关系副词where作地点状语。句意：李娜在比赛之后回到了武汉，众所周知，她是在那里成长并被培养成为网球冠军的。7A考查动词的语态和副词。measure表示“有多长(宽、高、深)”时为不及物动词，所以用主动语态。that在此处相当于副词so；much能修饰形容词原级，词义为“非常，很”，不符
62、合语境，但that的词义为“那么”，是符合语境的。故选A。 8D考查动词的时态。根据句意分析可知这里应该用现在完成进行时，强调某动作自之前一段时间开始一直进行，因此选D项。9A考查名词辨析。the distance为先行词，they keep from为定语从句；keep distance from 意为“与保持距离”。10B考查动词辨析。seek ones advice 意为“征求某人的意见”。A应为ask for ones advice，C、D两项构不成有意义的搭配。11C考查动词的时态和语态。短语break out为不及物动词短语，不可用于被动语态，可先排除A、B两项。根据语境可知，第一
63、个空用过去进行时态。句意：妈妈正在厨房做饭，这时孩子们争吵起来。12B考查情态动词。句意：最近宣布，所有的学校不应当让体温高的学生上学。情态动词shall常在条约、法令、规章等文件中表示义务或规定，一般用于第三人称，意为“应当，必须”。13C考查交际用语。Behave yourself 好好的，听话，规矩点(对孩子等的用语)。Help yourself请随便(吃、用等)；Its up to you由你决定；Go ahead行，可以，往下说、问等。由答语的第二句话可以看出，这位母亲是要求孩子听话，故选C。14D考查副词辨析。suddenly突然地；naturally自然地；obviously明显
64、地；luckily幸运地。句意：尽管他在地震中失去了父母，但幸运的是一对好心的夫妇收养了他并把他照顾得很好。15B考查动词短语辨析。句意：因为他的生意失败，他的身体垮了。只有broke out和broke down在此可以独立作谓语，而C、D两项必须带宾语。A项“爆发”意义与语境不合，只有break down(垮掉)符合句意。第二节文章主要讲述了作者的父亲在自己工作的工厂爆炸中幸存，作者能再次见到父亲真是令人高兴。16B从上文的teachers看出，应该是“学生”。故选B项。17Aorganize“组织”；order“命令”；make“使；让”；ask“要求”。句意：老师很快组织我们进行消防演
65、习。根据句意，选A项。18C从下文的the spreading cloud darken the bright spring sky看出，应该是“观看”。故选C项。19D此处是让步状语从句，故选although。20A句意表示“化工厂爆炸了”，blow up“爆炸”符合题意。故选A项。21B从上文的the Texas City Monsanto Chemical plant had和下文的began to cry看出答案。故选B项。22C那也是“我”父亲工作的地方，“我”呆住了。frighten“恐吓”是及物动词，要跟宾语，此处用不及物动词，freeze“凝固；僵硬”符合题意。故选C项。23D
66、从上文的化工厂爆炸看，学生是找到回家的路。make ones way“前进”；feel ones way“摸索着前进”；push ones way“挤出一条路”；find ones way“找到一条路”。根据句意，选D项。24A句意：我回家的路走了四分之一，这时一辆轿车喇叭声吓着我了，引起了我的注意。when意思是“正在这时”，符合题意。故选A项。25.B从上文的“轿车喇叭声吓着我了”看出答案。故选B项。26A从下文的alongside me in his old Ford看出车是“停了下来”。pull up“停下来”符合题意。故选A项。27C从下文的Otherwise, Papa would
67、 havefor me himself.猜出父亲“走了；不在了”。故选C项。28B结合上一题，要不父亲会亲自“来”的，come符合题意。故选B项。29D从上文叔叔把车停下来看是让作者上车，get in“上车”符合题意。故选D项。30A从I crawled into the back看，是车的后座。故选A项。31C句意：直到父亲伸手摸我，我才认出他来。reach for“伸手抓；伸手拿”，符合题意。32A句意：Cherokees不应该“哭泣”的。从前面children whose parentsthere began to cry.看出答案。故选A项。33D从上文的children whose
68、parentsthere began to cry.看出是他们的“父母”。故选D项。34B悲剧有一天也会降临到我的“家庭”，因为父亲也在那个工厂里工作。故选B项。35C父亲这一次免遭灾难，所以“又”度过了32年。another“再，又”，符合题意。故选C项。第二部分第一节A文章介绍了2010年美国最佳书籍。36C细节理解题。通读全文，只有倒数第三段介绍了两本书， 其他每段各介绍了一本书，故答案为C项。37B细节理解题。根据第三段对The Imperfectionists 这本书的介绍可知该书与音乐无关，故选B项。38C推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，Cleopatra：A Life这本书介绍
69、了古埃及女王Cleopatra，故答案为C。39A细节理解题。根据第一段对Freedom这本书的介绍尤其是该段最后一句话Mr.Franzen fills the book with sharp observations about American politics, culture and society.可知答案为A。B这是一篇记叙文，介绍一位祖母在参演一个节目时意外找到自己的孙女的故事。40C细节理解题。文章第二段提到导演和观众，由此可知她是在排练一个节目，为即将公演的话剧作准备。41A细节理解题。结合语境可知节目中的情景和导演的话让她不由自主地想到自己的孙女。42C细节理解题。结合最后
70、几段可知，作者详细询问参演节目的一个女孩的父母的名字并最终确定对方的身份(她的孙女)。43A主旨大意题。本文主要依据时间和事件的先后顺序展开，讲述了作者因演出节目而找到自己的孙女的故事。C44B细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“The WHO says a major reason for the rising obesity rates is an increase in imported foods.”可知。45A细节理解题。根据第四段的“In some of the places，youd be amazed to see how a bottle of Coke is cheaper th
71、an a bottle of water.”可判断A项正确。46B细节理解题。倒数第四段中提到：“In all，almost ten million people live in Pacific island countries.The WHO estimates that about 40 percent of them have health disorders related to diet and nutrition.”由此可知选B。D47B48.C49.B50.A第二节51B根据第一段But science may have just proved them rightbecause
72、 beautiful women are more likely to have daughters than their plainer counterparts, according to a study(但是科学已经证明她们是正确的因为研究表明：漂亮妇女比长相普通的妇女更可能生女儿)，及全文的陈述可知选择B。52F根据文章第一段中because beautiful women are more likely to have daughters than their plainer counterparts及第二段首句As parents tend to pass on genes tha
73、t determine looks, this could result in handsome men becoming rather thin on the ground(因为父母会把决定容貌的基因遗传下来，这也会造成人世间帅男相当少)，再结合选项可以选出F。53D文章第三段分析了17,000个1958年3月出生在英国的婴儿，并记录了他们的生活。当他们到了45岁时，问一下他们孩子的性别。应该选择和记录孩子的成长有关的，还要兼顾全篇文章的主题：漂亮女人多生女儿。再结合选项可知选择D。54E根据文章第四段中Those rated as attractive were equally likel
74、y to have a son or daughter as their first child, but the unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son.(被评为漂亮的人，她们的第一个孩子是儿子和女儿的几率可能相同，但是那些不漂亮的女人更可能有儿子。)可知该空选择的答案就是对上面陈述的观点：the unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son的进一步解释说明，结合选项选择E。55C根据文章最后一段中But couples blessed with strength and agg
75、ression rather than looks are better off having boys, as these characteristics are of more use to males.(那些有幸拥有力量和进取行为而不是外貌的夫妇生了儿子会更好的，因为这些性格对男人更有用。)可知选择的答案主要和上面的观点形成鲜明的对比：Beauty is of more benefit to a woman than a man。第三部分第一节I was at a party a few weeks befor which was more than I had expected it
76、to be.We were all having a good time a suddenly a fire broke in the kitchen.Someone shouted “Fire！Dont panic！” S of course people started to panic.There was smoke everywhere and we were all trying to find the way to out when someone found fire extinguisher(灭火器)It was my friend Charles.He put the fir
77、e out and was about to comin out of the house when the firefighters arrived.The fire chief prais my friend and told us that we all had a luckil escape.1before改为ago。这是描述过去的事情，句子用一般过去时，表示“几周之前”用ago。2excited改为exciting。指的是令人兴奋的晚会，所以应该用ing形式的形容词。3as 改为when。表示“就在那时”，用并列连词when。4broke后加out。火灾的发生应该用break out
78、。5So改为But。不要慌张和下文的人们慌张之间是转折关系。6去掉to。out为副词，不能与to搭配。find the way out“找到出路”。7fire前加a。找到一个灭火器。8coming 改为come。 “be about to do sth. when”为固定句型，意为“刚要就在这时”。9praise改为praised。10luckily改为lucky。修饰名词作定语用形容词形式。第二节One possible version：高考资源网_Jack，You_asked_me_in_your_letter_how_people_in_China_celebrate_National_
