16、ou.文章大意:本文提出了如何提高交流技巧的几点建议。解析:1上句提到“有时交流很容易,你的行为与别人的一致”,空后提到“有时你完全被误解”,因此C项“然而,情况不总是这样”与上下句句意衔接。2上句提到“如果你想让别人同意你的观点,就上下轻轻地点头”,这样,“这种身势语会促使和你说话的任何人同意你说的话”,所以G项符合语境。3上句表明“每个人都有对空间的要求”所以“不要和与你谈话的人站得太近”符合语境。4空后句首的this指代上句的内容,根据下句“learning how to eye smile”可知选择A项。5此句为小标题,根据下段内容可知标题应是“紧紧地与他人握手”。.语法填空阅读下面材
17、料,在空白处填入适当内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。()Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl_1.named_(name) Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease.

20、d with a _9.trembling_(tremble) voice, “Will I start to die right away?”Being young,theboyhad_10.misunderstood_(understand) the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood.答案:1过去分词作定语,相当于定语从句who was named.。2根据上下文应填介词from,指“从她弟弟身上输血给她”。3引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作主语。4过去分词作定语。need
21、和antibodies之间为被动关系。5句意:医生问男孩是否愿意献血给他的姐姐。过去分词作表语。pleased“乐意的;高兴的”。6. 句意:如果(输血)能够挽救莉兹,我愿意这样做。7在这里是“随着”的意思。8现在分词作伴随状语。9现在分词作定语。a trembling voice“颤抖的声音”。10根据后文“他以为(he thought.)”,说明小男孩是误解了医生的意思。()If you visit London,you_1.will_see_(see) lots of cars, buses and bikes.

Taking a bus took fifty minutes while_8.riding_(ride) a bike took only half an hour. Now I love riding a bike to work. Ive got_9.a_little more money now,so I feel much_10.better_(good
24、)答案:1以if引导的条件状语从句。主将从现。3wait for“等待”,固定搭配。4副词修饰动词“moves”。5crowded为形容词化的过去分词,表示“拥挤的”,与前边的expensive并列,作表语。6and连接两个并列成分“late and tired”,作伴随状语。7suggest表示建议时后面所跟的宾语从句要用虚拟语气,“主(should)动词原形”的结构。8while引导的从句缺主语,故用动词ing形式,也与主句中的主语“Taking”对应。9全文介绍了骑自行车上班省时、省钱的好处,所以作者的态度是肯定的,a little more.“多一些的”。10与上文的“a little
25、 more money”对应。句意:现在我有了更多的钱,因此感觉也更好了。()“Other_1.countries_(country) have a climate;in England we have weather.” This statement,often_2.used_(use)by Englishmen to describe the weather conditions of their country, is both revealing(揭露真相的) _3.and_true.

27、_almost about eight degrees or more centigrade. And then, in the late afternoon the sky will be clear, the sun will begin to shine,and for an hour or two before darkness _10.falls_(fall), itwillbe summer.答案:1由后面的have可知主语是可数名词的复数形式。2used作定语,表示被动,此短语相当于定语从句which was often used by Englishmen to describ
28、e the weather conditions of their country。3both.and.表示“不但,而且”。4据说没有别的国家像英国一样。5in the course of是固定词组,意思是:在期间。6大约一个小时以后。7may表示“可能”,用来表推测,后面几个may具有相同的意义。8at midday的意思是:在中午时分。9by在这里的意思是“表示程度、数量等以之差”。10before引导时间状语从句,用一般现在时代替将来时。.短文改错阅读短文,文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词处加一个漏词符号(),并在其下面写出该加的
29、词。删除:把多余的词用斜线(划掉。修改:在错的词下画一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意:1. 每处错误仅限1词;2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。()Many people which smoke say that smoking helps them to think better.But I strongly against smoking.First, smoking is harmfully to ones health.
