29、rs.答案课时作业(十七).1.C考查冠词用法。句意:第一印象最持久。毕竟,你不会再有机会去形成第一印象。第一空后有second,在此表示再一次机会,而不是表顺序,应用不定冠词;第二空中的第一印象是泛指,也不是表示顺序,又根据题干可以判断impression在此处是可数名词,可数名词单数表泛指时须用不定冠词,故选择C项。2A考查非谓语动词。句意:他告诉我们是否去野营还在讨论当中。分析句子可知“whether to do sth.”作宾语从句的主语,He told us 后省略了宾语从句的引导词that。3B考查状语从句。句意:尽管Tim不经常锻炼,但他身材很好。前后是让步关系,故选B项。4A考
30、查非谓语动词。句意:在星期六,比起呆在家里,我情愿去旅游。由“prefer to dorather than do”结构便可知A项正确,此处把rather than结构提前了。It being Saturday为独立主格结构。5A考查动词短语辨析。句意:“对不起,现在我得挂断电话了。该上课了。”“好吧,等会儿我再打电话。”hang up意为“猛地挂断,中止(与某人的)电话交谈”,符合语境。break up意为“(集会)结束,解散;(恋爱或婚姻中的男女)分手”;give up意为“放弃;认输;猜不出,交出;自首;泄露”;hold up意为“举起,支持,支撑,拦住,耽搁”。6B考查动词辨析。句意:
31、这所学校通过给大部分孩子提供获得知识的机会,给予他们对未来的希望。acquire意为“获得”,符合语境。require意为“要求”;achieve意为“实现”;discover意为“发现”。7A考查动词的时态。句意:我得去看医生,因为我近来一直咳嗽得很厉害。根据句子中的lately可知,设空处表示现在的事情,故用现在时态,排除B、C两项;D项表习惯性动作,故被排除。现在完成进行时表示动作从过去开始,持续到现在且现在还在进行。8A考查省略。句意:如果这些食物好吃,我再去买些。否则,我就不去买了。if not意为“否则”;if any意为“若有的话”;whenever意为“无论什么时候”;无whe
32、n not这种表达。根据句意,正确答案为A项。9B考查虚拟语气及固定短语辨析。句意:由于天气不好,足球赛被要求推迟了。在It is required that句型中,从句的谓语动词用“should 动词原形”,should可以省略,所以排除C和D两项。没有thank to这种用法,所以排除A项,正确答案为B项。10C考查非谓语动词。rid of 是一个固定搭配,意为“使摆脱;使去掉”。switch fromto也是固定搭配,意为“从转向”,其中to是介词,后面需跟名词或动名词形式。所以正确答案为C项。11D考查非谓语动词。句意:她喜欢用手洗衣服而不愿用洗衣机洗。固定表达prefer to do
33、 sth. rather than do sth.意为“宁可做而不做;喜欢做而不做”,所以正确答案为D项。12D考查副词用法。句意:奇怪的是,这两个人看起来这么相像,以至于几乎所有人都认为他们是双胞胎兄弟。too much 后跟不可数名词或单独使用,意为“太多”;much too后跟形容词或副词原级,意为“太,很”;没有such much这种表达;so后可跟形容词或副词,所以正确答案为D项。13B考查副词辨析。句意:我敢肯定,戴维已经告诉你他生意上的麻烦。不管怎样,他欠银行许多钱不是什么秘密了。anyway意为“无论如何”;however意为“然而”;otherwise意为“否则”;thoug
34、h意为“虽然”。根据句意可知正确答案为B。14A考查动词的时态。句意:约瑟夫从上个月就开始上夜校,但是他还不会用俄语说“你叫什么名字”。本题从时间状语“自从上个月开始”可知需用现在完成时,又因为说话时他还在继续上课,所以要用现在完成进行时。15C考查交际用语。句意:“这张照片我保存行吗?”“恐怕不行。”答语应为委婉拒绝。A、B、D均不符合题意。.本文为夹叙夹议文。主要讲述了“我”种了一园的玫瑰,朋友来访时,“我”建议她可以把花摘回,放在屋里,可朋友说玫瑰是地球的笑脸,决不能采摘。16C细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“All over my garden Ive planted nothing b
35、ut roses, because I especially love the flower.”可知,“我”种玫瑰是因为“我”非常喜欢玫瑰,故选C项。17A词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“the smell of the roses would be wafted far, far away.”可猜出玫瑰的香味应该能散发到很远,故选A项,give off意为“散发出”。B项意为“遗失,失败”;C项意为“毁灭”;D项意为“扔掉”。18B推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“That girl friend of mine, walking into the garden in high spirits,
