Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.1. Modern science and technology has _ communication be
2、tween people far apart.A. made convenientB. made it convenientC. made it convenient forD. made it convenient to【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查固定搭配。句意：现代科技使得相隔千里的人们可以方便的交流。此处是make+sth+adj，其中的形容词做宾语补足语，句中has made是谓语，communication between people far apart短语是宾语，convenient是宾语的补语，被前置。故选A。【点睛】固定搭配考的是平时学生的词汇和短语的积累量，对常见
3、的固定搭配要了然于心，了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题的关键，做题时可从句意着手，同时对于平时的学习要多进行积累词汇，考试时才能很好的完成。本题中因为空后是名词communication，所以不能理解成make it +adj.+ for sb to do sth 句型。2. No matter how frequently _, the works of Beethoven always attract a large number of people.A. performingB. performedC. to be performedD. being performed【答案】B【解析】【
4、分析】【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：无论贝多芬的作品被表演的多么频繁，它总是能吸引很多人。分析句子结构可知，逗号前为no matter how引导的状语从句，perform在句中作谓语动词，而状语从句中省略了主语+be动词，结合句意，主语the works of Beethoven和谓语动词perform为被动关系，用被动语态，所以原句为no matter how the works are frequently performed。故选B。【点睛】3. He doesnt know what to say, for it is the first time that he _ with
5、a girl.A. went outB. goes outC. has gone outD. had gone out【答案】C【解析】【详解】考查时态。句意：他不知道要说什么，因为这是他第一次跟女孩子一起出去。根据固定句式：It is the +序数词+ time that 从句，从句中用现在完成时可知，空格处应用现在完成时，主语为he，所以谓语动词用单数has gone out。故选C。4. Most green vegetables, _ for too long, will lose nutrition.A. if to be cookedB. if cookedC. if cooki
6、ngD. if being cooked【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查状语从句中的省略。句意：很多绿色蔬菜，如果煮的时间太长，会失去营养。根据选项可知此题考查if引导的状语从句中的省略：当从句中的主语与主句主语保持一致时，可以省略从句中的主语和be动词。分析四个选项可知，if引导的从句后没有主语，那么就意味着跟主句的主语保持一致，句子补充完整应为“if most green vegetables are cooked for too long,”,根据省略的规则，省略主语的同时要省略be动词，即变成if cooked for too long。故选B。5. I hope that the li
7、ttle _ I have been able to do does good to them all.A. whichB. whatC. thatD. when【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】考查定语从句引导词。句意：我希望我能够做的这点小事会对他们有好处。分析句子结构可知，本空引导定语从句，从句中少宾语，先行词是不定代词little，所以只能用that，不能用which。故选C。【点睛】6.

9、中缺少主语，先行词为逗号后面整个主句内容，而which引导的非限制性定语从句，不能置于主句前，所以用as引导。故选B。【点睛】8.

10、从句引导词，作buy的宾语，指代先行词that(the bread)，故用which。故选A项。9.

12、 dont find【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查谓语动词时态。句意：我们想要去感谢他，但是还没有找到他的地址。分析句子结构可知，本空在句中做谓语，结合句意，应该是“到目前为止”，还未发生的事情，所以用现在完成时态。故选A。【点睛】12.
