29、 this passage come from?AIn a newspaper. BIn a magazine.COn the Internet. DIn a report.答案课时作业(二十六).1.B考查名词辨析。句意：这个司机可以根据自己的喜好在冬天调节供暖器，也可以在夏天调节空调。preference意为“偏爱，更加喜欢”。2A考查冠词的用法。因为sky和world原本是独一无二的，但这里前面都有了形容词修饰，表示会出现一个什么样的sky和world，这里就属于泛指了。3B考查动词短语辨析。答语的意思是：一切都进展顺利，除了我们的汽车在途中抛锚了两次外。break down意为“抛锚”
30、；slow down意为“慢下来”；get down意为“记下，写下”；put down意为“放下，记下”。 4A考查名词辨析。区分四个近义词，可从句意及空格后面的介词入手，表达“中国在上面有着较好的声誉”应接介词for；influence后接on；impression后接on；knowledge后接of。5D考查形容词辨析。句意：在那时候，我们主要的任务是给那些被暴风雪阻挡的人们提供食物和医疗救助。primary意为“主要的，基本的”，符合题意。normal表示“正常的”；constant表示“不断的，恒定的”；permanent表示“永久的”。6C考查交际用语。would rather s
31、b. didnt do sth.意为“宁愿某人不要做某事”；A、D两项“去吧；随你意”与下句“外面在刮大风”矛盾。B项 Id rather not.意思是“我宁愿不”，与上句不符。7C考查形容词辨析。根据下文中“警察很容易就找到了那个小偷”可知，目击者给出的是详细的描述。detailed“详细的”。故选C项。8B考查动词辨析。wish 后的宾语从句常用虚拟语气；hope则表示有可能实现的愿望，不用虚拟语气。C、D两项中介词后不能接that引导的宾语从句。9D考查名词词义辨析。句意：尽管普通的读者在他们的一生中花了超过四千英镑在书上，但55%的人说买书只是为了装饰并不打算读它们。intentio
32、n意为“打算”，符合语境。advantage意为“优点”；attempt意为“尝试”；evidence意为“证据”。10C考查倒装。sothat， suchthat结构中，若so, such 和与其所修饰的词置于句首，使用部分倒装，又因为sudden是形容词，作表语，所以选C项。11D考查虚拟语气。wish后接宾语从句， 从句要用虚拟语气。由句中的could attend可知，这是与现在事实相反的虚拟语气，所以“繁忙”应是现在的情况，是事实不是虚拟，故用一般现在时。12C考查形容词辨析。typical 意为“典型的；有代表性的；一向如此的”。句意：“约翰总是先考虑别人然后再考虑自己。”“的确是
33、，他一向都愿意帮助别人。”aggressive意为“好斗的，侵略的”；evident意为“明显的；明白的”；conventional意为“常规的”。 13A考查名词辨析。句意：“那天玛丽正受人欺负，这时约翰碰巧经过给她解了围。”“我想这绝非巧合，而是精心安排的。”coincidence意为“巧合的事情”，与well planned相对。occurrence意为“偶然发生的事”；arrangement意为“安排”；incident“小事件，事变”。14D考查动词辨析。appeal to sb. 意为“对某人有吸引力；使某人感兴趣”。句意：我认为她的表演吸引我的是她的走台的方式和甜美的嗓音。att
34、ract意思为“吸引”，直接跟宾语；contribute to意为“有助于；促成”；belong to意为“属于”。15B考查短语辨析。句意：我很想和他交朋友，但另一方面我也担心不能和他好好相处。on the whole意为“总体而言；总的说来”；as a matter of fact意为“事实上；其实”；first of all意为“首先”。根据句意， 只有B项符合题意。.哈里波特是很受全世界书迷喜欢的系列小说，可很少有人知道此书的作者J.K.Rowling的命运就像书中人物哈利波特一样具有传奇色彩。16C作为一位作家，应该是“写”或“创作”小说。17D写作时应该是“坐在桌子前”，用at a
35、 table。18B本句是强调句型，强调的是主语，用that引导。19A此处是Rowling对往事的回忆，所以应该选remembers。20B下文“was a story about a rabbit”暗示了此题的答案。novel指一般的小说；fiction多指科幻方面的小说。21C语境为：“是关于一只名叫Rabbit的兔子的故事”。22D此段主要讲述的是Rowling对往事的回忆，这里的意思为“她的许多美好回忆集中在读书上”。23Dread aloud意思为“大声朗读”；虽然tell可以表示“讲故事”，但它不与aloud搭配。24Dspend time (in) doing sth.为固定结
36、构。25C虽然四个动词都能与as搭配，但此处表示“当研究员和秘书”，所以用work as。26D此处表示在上班期间搞业余创作，应该是在电脑上把构思的小说“打出来”。27B语境为：当没有人看着时，她就在电脑上打字。watch表示“观看，观察，监视”，符合语境。notice表示无意中“注意到”；observe多表示搞专门研究的人长期地进行某一方面的观察；see表示有意或无意中“看见”。28A表示“某人产生一个主意”常用an idea comes to sb., an idea strikes sb.或sb. hits on/upon an idea。29B与上学有关的短语为study at/in
37、a school, attend a school, enter a school和go to school。30B火车进站、出站常用动词pull into和pull out of。另外，这两个短语还可表示轮船进、出码头。31C此处表示故事中的人物和前边的部分已经在大脑中完全“形成”。32B从后边的over her lunch hours可知，此处应选pubs(酒店)。33A从上文的notes一词和下文的to finish the book可知，此处表示那本书的“章节”。34D此处表示定居下来以后着手完成她的书。表示“着手做某事”常用set out to do sth.和set about d
38、oing sth.两个短语，由后边的不定式结构推断出选D。set off表示“动身，出发”；set up意为“建立”。35D离开她们狭小而又寒冷的公寓。.在VSA国际艺术节上，Taylor和Amanda等一些残疾的孩子展示了她们的创造能力。36D推理判断题。由Amanda的母亲所说的话“People started looking at her differentlyThey stopped looking at her as a girl who was struggling and started looking at her as an artist. Its changed her w
39、hole life.”可推断出她的母亲看到别人对女儿的看法的改变及女儿生活的变化，应该是高兴的，故选D项。37C细节理解题。由倒数第二段最后一句“Now shes more focused on school”可知在发现绘画的才能后，她能够更集中精力学习，学习也一定有提高，故选C项。38A主旨大意题。综观全文，本文主要介绍了两位有残疾的孩子在国际艺术节上展示了她们的创造力，故选A项。B项在文中找不到支持的信息；C项不具体，本文主要是针对孩子们的表现，而不是艺术节；D项为文中细节。39C推理判断题。由第一段最后一句“Her twin sister Sydney participates in sports”可知她能正常参加体育运动，身体应该是健康的，故选C项。A、D两项与文中信息不符，B项为文中细节，不为推断。40C推理判断题。由本文最后一句“You can see more of Amandas artwork at .”可推出本文应该是来自网络。
