28、 with pain better than men.Unit 2Robots.单项填空1【解析】选C。考查情景交际。句意为:如果你上班总迟到就会被开除。那又怎么样?我不在乎。根据句中的I dont care.可推断答话者对“被开除”持无所谓的态度。so what意为“那又怎么样,怎么了”。2【解析】选A。考查代词用法。后半句句意为:当你想在网上找一篇文章时,总找不到一篇有用的。空白处表同类articles中的一篇,故用one。在英语中表示同类同物用it,同类异物用one。常用that和the one代指同类事物,表特指。any意为“任何一个”。故选A。3【解析】选D。考查冠词。第一空是the
29、形容词,这里表示“年轻人”;第二空表示“一个热门而严肃的话题”,表泛指,故用不定冠词a,故选D项。4【解析】选D。考查非谓语动词。句意为:别担心。我会把电脑修好,然后明天让人给你送去。get sth.done意为“使某事被完成”;get sb.to do意为“让某人做某事”。5【解析】选C。考查被动语态。句意为:快点!电影已经开演10分钟了。好吧。但是开始部分已经错过了。根据句中The film is on for ten minutes.可判断miss的动作发生在过去并持续到了现在且表示被动,故用现在完成时的被动语态。6【解析】选B。考查动词辨析。句意为:每个进入加拿大的游客都必须申报所携带
30、的食物、植物、动物及相关产品,因为这些都会影响加拿大的动物、植物和自然环境。publish出版;发行;declare声明;申报;announce发布,宣布;debate辩论,讨论。7【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词。句意为:这些天人们一直在谈论一个月之后将投入使用的高铁。动作未发生,且railways与put into use之间是被动关系,故用不定式的被动式作定语。8【解析】选D。考查动词词组辨析。句意为:令人高兴的是,今年,政府在财政中预留了用于自然灾害恢复的钱。set off开始;爆炸;cut out切去;省略;停止;cut down削减;set aside留出,拨出。9【解析】选D。考查非
31、谓语动词。句意为:世界大学生运动会每两年举办一次,素有“小奥运会”之称。International Universities Games与know之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词。10【解析】选A。考查介词短语辨析。句意为:这个公司提供低廉的互联网接入服务,除此之外,这个公司有无限制的共享。in addition另外,此外;in brief简言之;in return作为报答;in all总计。11【解析】选B。句意为:这种植物真奇怪!我以前从未见过。本题考查感叹句。设空处修饰名词,故答案为B项。12【解析】选B。句意为:他站起来转身时,看见背后站着的那名侍者正对自己心照不宣地微笑。tur
32、n around回转;转身,符合题意。turn off关掉;turn over(使)翻倒;翻过(书页);turn up出现,开大(声音等)。13【解析】选C。句意为:“那天早上七点钟一定要记得给我打电话,否则我会把聚会的事儿全忘了。”“没问题。”ring up给打电话,符合题意。lift up提起;鼓舞;bring up培养;提出;take up占据;从事。14【解析】选D。be bound to一定做,必须做。句意为:既然你负责这个部门,你必须执行这个计划。eager渴望的;anxious渴望的,焦虑的;interested感兴趣的。15【解析】选D。考查have sb.doing的用法。h

34、个包,其他动词不符合文意。4【解析】选D。上文It had contained half of the money shed brought with her.The other half was hidden under her blouse,说明她身上还剩下另一半钱,这对她来说是幸运的。5【解析】选A。从上文看不出老人上汽车时是shyly还是happily,而从下文中老人付不起车费可推知他很贫穷,所以用in rags,此处是介词短语作定语,表示“穿着破烂的老人”。6【解析】选D。take seats表示“就座”,此处是被动语态。7【解析】选C。因为刚上车,不可能是询问“在哪儿上车”,而是问
35、“要在哪儿下车”。8【解析】选B。下文售票员不是直接让老人买票而是asked the old man whether he had any money,说明售票员怀疑老人可能没有钱买票。9【解析】选C。由空后that he did not可以看出老人承认他没有钱。10【解析】选C。主语是he,宾语是his money,所以不能用被动形式,排除D项;主句谓语用的是一般过去时态,而且从句谓语动词表示的动作发生在主句之前,所以答案是C项。11【解析】选B。听到老人说自己真的没有钱,售票员命令老人下车,毫不客气。asked虽然在句式结构上没有错误,但是语气上不如ordered重。12【解析】选A。老人
36、恳求售票员让他搭乘这辆车,这样的话他天黑之前就能到家了,所以用so。13【解析】选B。根据上文内容可知,司机重复售票员的话,让老人下车。14【解析】选C。那位妇人坚持认为“那不是把老人赶下车去的理由”。15【解析】选D。上文有The other half was hidden under her blouse,可知此时此刻,这位妇人把手伸进衬衣里面掏钱。16【解析】选D。因为被小偷抢去了一部分,所以,她身上现有的就是她剩下的钱。remaining“留下的,剩余的”,符合语境。17【解析】选B。turn和to搭配,表示“转向”。所有人的目光都转向了这位妇人。18【解析】选B。根据a Mona L
37、isa smile of peace and grace可确定用wearing,意思是“面带像蒙娜丽莎一样平静而又优雅的笑容”。19【解析】选A。丢钱是早些时候发生的事情,所以用earlier。20【解析】选C。最后一段是作者根据上面的故事所发出的感慨,虽然那妇人和老人素不相识,但她依然助人为乐,由此可得出,在人生的旅程中,来自陌生人的礼貌对待和笑容能减轻负担,改善心情。假如我们都能为别人做一点善事,那么人生的旅程就会美好得多。.阅读理解【解题导语】说脏话会减少人的疼痛?心理学家已证实了这一点,但其原因还在探索中。1【解析】选A。主旨大意题。文章以“说脏话是否会减轻人的疼痛”为主题,第一段引入
