75、ow we carry phones wherever we go, so it is time that phones_43_(determine) design. More surprisingly, no matter how ordinary the bag looks, _44_can communicate something about the owner. So what your bag can convey_45_(be) your status, or your belief.【答案】36. to ignore 37. stepped 38. belongings 39.
76、 what 40. attached 41. remarkably 42. a 43. determined/should determine 44. it 45. is【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。虽然很多人的注意力都集中在包的外部它的设计、品牌,以及不可避免的价格标签,但大多数人往往忽略了包中隐藏的丰富而复杂的内部。文章介绍了时尚女性包袋中物品的变化,表示无论包包看上去多么普通,它都能传达出主人的一些信息。所以你的包能传达的是你的地位,或你的信仰。【36题详解】考查非谓语动词。根据短语tend to do sth.表示“倾向于,往往会”。故填to ignore。【37题详解】考查动词时态
77、。根据后文in the 1740s可知此处描述过去发生的事情应用一般过去时。故填stepped。【38题详解】考查名词。根据上文her private可知应填名词belonging,且belonging为可数名词,前面没有冠词,表示“所有物”应用复数形式。故填belongings。【39题详解】考查连接词。此处为表语从句,从句中缺少宾语,指代物品应用what引导。故填what。【40题详解】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知attach在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语purses构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填attached。【41题详解】考查副词。修饰后文形容词unchanged应用副词
78、remarkably,表示“明显地”。故填remarkably。【42题详解】考查冠词。note为可数名词,此处表示泛指应用不定冠词,且$5为辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。【43题详解】考查虚拟语气。在Its (high) time that后的句子中要用虚拟语气,用一般过去时,也可用“should+动词原形”。故填determined/should determine。【44题详解】考查代词。句意:更令人惊讶的是,无论包包看上去多么普通,它都能传达出主人的一些信息。此处指代上文中的the bag应用代词it。故填it。【45题详解】考查主谓一致。本句陈述客观事实用一般现在时,且主语为what
79、your bag can convey,故谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填is。【点睛】当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。如第五小题,分析句子结构可知attach在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语purses构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填attached。第三部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)46. 假定你是李华,你校下周二将邀请Green教授做一个关于西方礼仪(

98、ears later,those pictures still brought back the warm memories of that day.【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知,作者搬家后第一次出去散步,在一个小木屋遇见了70多岁的Will Banks,Will Banks在打招呼时喊出了作者的名字,但是作者却不认识他,Will Banks邀请作者进屋喝杯茶,顺便讲述他为什么知道作者的名字。【详解】续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:他拿着我的夹克衫和他的挂在一起,向两个厚陶杯里倒茶,所以应该写进屋后的情况,即Will Banks向作者讲述是如何得知作者的名字的;
99、第二段开头是:有一个像Will这样的朋友还不错,本段应该作者听了Will讲述的故事后,把Will当成在这个陌生国家的朋友,提议给他拍些照片,多年后,这些照片仍能让作者想起那些温暖的回忆。续写时要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。按要求完成写作任务。【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:look for,suggest doing sth.,bring back等高级词汇;After we sat at the table, Will told me the whole story.中After引导的时间状语从句,He said again that he was glad Id come to visit.中that引导的宾语从句等高级句式。
