24、业(八).1.D考查交际用语。句意为:“很抱歉,我未能按时完成它。”“无论如何我还得谢谢你。”D项符合语境。A项为见面打招呼用语;B项在表示委婉拒绝时用;C项在表示非常感谢时用,均不符合句意。2C考查副词辨析。句意:也许,从现在起他真应该多锻炼。不管怎样,我希望他能很快恢复过来。somehow “由于某种原因”;somewhat “有点;稍微”;anyway “不管怎样;无论如何”;anywhere “在任何地方”。故C符合题意。3Awatch over “照管”。句意为:我去游泳,你帮我看一下衣服好吗?其他选项均不符合句意。4B考查短语辨析。出了重大事故放长假,也就是说(换句话说),他被开除
25、了。前后句子从逻辑上讲不存在因果关系或者转折关系。5A考查动词的时态和语态。Italian Luca Parmitano 和select 是被动关系,故排除B,C。根据句意,表示过去的动作“已经被选入”对现在的影响,故用的是现在完成时的被动语态,故选A。6A考查交际用语。由答语中的not me可以看出,他不想去,所以选择A项,这是一句美式俚语,意为“我不喜欢这个东西”或者“它不适合我”。7D考查词汇辨析。as作“随着”解为连词,引导时间状语从句。with 是介词,不能引导从句。8A考查时态、语态和主谓一致。答话人之所以让对方删除手机上要求汇款的信息是因为到目前为止已经有很多人上当受骗,所以用现
26、在完成时的被动语态,排除C、D两项; many a表示“大量”,修饰单数可数名词,谓语动词用单数,故排除B项选A项。9C考查as a result的用法。as a result意为“因此,所以”,单独使用,表示后句是前句的结果;而however表示转折,moreover, furthermore表示递进,不符合语境。10D考查such aadj.nthat结构。注意,如果把A项中的a 放到wellknown后也是正确的。11C主要考查在交际用语中动词的时态及语态。根据主语与谓语动词的关系可知是被订购,于是排除选项A;选项B表示将要发生的事情;选项C表示已经发生的事情;选项D表示过去某个时候即将
27、发生的事情。根据前面的Thats too bad.可知,事情已经发生,故答案为C。12B考查副词辨析。句意为:当一个人得到了物质财富后,他一定会寻求精神享受,这是一个被大家所普遍接受的真理。partly “不完全地,部分地”;universally “普遍地”;particularly “尤其,特别”;previously “先前,预先”。语意表示这是被大家所普遍接受的真理,因此选B。13D考查交际用语。句意为:“恐怕我不能像计划得那么快完成任务。” “别急,慢慢来。”Im afraid为委婉的说法,不用Dont be afraid来回答;Dont mention it用来回答道歉;I sup
28、pose so表示“我想如此”,相当于I think so,不符合语境。Take your time表示“别着急,慢慢来”,符合句意。14D考查短语用法。deal with通常与how搭配;do with通常与what搭配。C项语序不对。15C考查时态。从句意知“过去十年来他一直都在发掘他最大的潜能”,另外,从“in the past decade”可知应该用现在完成时,同时此处强调十年来他一直保有的状态,所以用现在完成进行时,故选C。.北爱尔兰的一个研究小组正在研究一种会思考的电脑,这种电脑能够感知使用者的情绪。16A细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句可知A项正确;B项的profit错误;C项
29、的Southern错误;D项说项目已经完成,这一点不对。17D细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句可知D项正确。18C推理判断题。根据第三段中倒数第二句“experience has shown that most users are deeply uncomfortable with speech interfaces that ignore ittoo uncomfortable to use them very much.”可知C项正确。19D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Its a fair bet that in 30 years time, emotionsensitive interfaces will be as much part of life as windowandmouse interfaces are now”可知D正确。.2024EABDC高考资源网版权所有,侵权必究!
