Yours，Zhang Lin课时作业(三十).1.C考查“be about to do wh
27、en”句型。此结构的意思是“正要做某事，就在这时”，其中when相当于and just then，不可以用while, as等替换。2C考查独立主格结构。“his hands fast tied”是一个由“名词过去分词”构成的独立结构，这种结构的名词后还可以接介词短语等，在句中通常作状语。3C考查find后动词的非谓语形式。himself与surround之间为被动关系，因此用过去分词。4A考查动词辨析。由语境可知，淘气的儿子弄坏“我”最喜爱的唱片，所以应该是发火，故选erupt，意思是“(因生气)突然发出(尤指叫喊)”。explode爆炸，爆发；promote提升，促进；ignore忽视，不
28、理。5D考查形容词辨析。由于(这里的人)来自世界各地，所以邻里关系比其他任何一个地方都更多样化。varied 意思是“多样化的”。6B考查动词词义辨析。句意：在国内，有一个关于他是否愿意重新团结整个国家的先期测验，即他是否会任命民主党人加盟他的新内阁。entertain意为“招待，使愉快”；appoint意为“任命，指派，约定”；employ意为“使用，雇用”；attract意为“吸引，引起(注意、兴趣等)”。根据句意可知B项正确。7D考查动词辨析。句意：显然，男人与女人之间、富人与穷人之间，他们的希望、目标、恐惧和渴望有很大区别。vary 相当于 be different。alter 指“微
29、小的变化”，不影响本质的改动；shift 指(位置、性质、形式等的)改变，转变；transfer 表示“将某物(人)由一处转移至另一处”。8C考查名词辨析。句意：刻苦努力不是取得巨大成功的唯一保证，但它是基本条件之一。guarantee “保证”；signal “信号，暗号”；supposition “推测，推断”；sign “迹象，标记，符号”。9A考查动词短语辨析。burn down (建筑物)烧毁，火势减弱；burn for渴望； burn up 烧得更旺，消耗；burn in 给留下不可磨灭的印象。此处应是“把烧毁”的意思。10A考查固定短语。be anxious about意为“对感
30、到担忧”。11D考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知，所填的词在句中作目的状语，所以用动词不定式。12D考查非谓语动词。句意：为了及时使项目完工，全体员工周末都在加班。不定式一般式作目的状语，故选D项。A项为现在分词表示主动，正在进行； B项为现在分词的完成式，表示此动作发生在主句动作前，已完成；C项为不定式完成式，表示此动作发生在主句动作前，已完成。13D考查现在分词的用法。此处现在分词短语作结果状语，表示自然的结果。14A考查名词辨析。句意：在期末考试之前，许多学生已经表现出紧张的迹象sign意为“征兆，迹象，病症”；mark意为“记号”；anxiety意为“忧虑，担心”；remark意为“评
31、论”，均不符合题意。15A考查非谓语动词的用法。补全为：Many car owners are driven by the rising，也就是说，drive和其逻辑主语是被动关系，故用过去分词作状语，表示原因。句意：受日益高涨的油价的影响，很多车主用车的次数大大减少。.A此篇涉及人们对家乡变化的关注，短期离家和长期离开家乡的人们对家乡变化的感悟是不一样的。16A信息理解题。由第二段第一句“small changes have probably surprised you”可知答案。其他选项不能根据文章得出。17B推理判断题。由第五段中“but I believe foreign settle
32、rs have improved this country because”可知B项正确。18C信息理解题。由倒数第二段第一句“policemen with guns in the airport”及倒数第二段最后一句“their vehicles had been used by bank robbers.”可知C为正确答案。19B主旨大意题。第一段即为全文的主旨段，从全文也可看出文章讲的是离开家乡一段时间再回来，人们便会感知家乡的变化。B文章讲述了Dan Phillips利用回收的垃圾作为建筑材料建房子。20C推理判断题。回收利用垃圾应该是环保的、便宜的。由第七段“In addition,
33、 each house is highly energyefficient with plenty of insulation”可知B也是优点。但是C并未提及。21B推理判断题。由第三段的“The fantastic houses which spring from his imagination”可知Dan Phillips充满想象力。由“Phillips founded Phoenix Commotion 12 years ago with the aim of creating a new model for sustainable housing.”可知他充满智慧。22D推理判断题。根
34、据文章可知所有的建筑都是用各种各样的回收垃圾做成的。这也正是这些建筑的特别之处。23C主旨大意题。通读全文可知文章是关于Dan Phillips利用垃圾作为建筑材料建房子的，故选C。.One possible version：Dear Andrew，Very happy to hear from you and youre welcome to study in our school for the next two months.
