12、nce. It is also one of the most famous cities in the world.Paris is called “the City of Light”. It is also an international fashion center. What modern women are wearing in Paris will soon be worn by many women in other parts of the world. Paris is also a famous center of education. For example， the
13、 headquarters of UNESCO， the United Nations Educational， Scientific，and Cultural Organization， is in Paris.The Seine River divides the city into two parts. Thirty-two bridges cross this scenic river. The oldest and perhaps most well-known is the Pont Neuf， which was built in the sixteenth century. T
14、he Sorbonne， a famous university， lies on the left bank of the river. The beautiful white church Sacre Coeur lies on top of the hill called Montmartre on the right bank of the Seine River.There are_ in Paris， such as the famous museum， the Louvre， as well as the cathedral of Notre Dame. However，the
15、most famous landmark in this city must be the Eiffel Tower.Paris is named after a group of people called the Parisii. They built a small village on an island in the middle of the Seine River about two thousand years ago. This island， called the lle de la Cite， is where Notre Dame is located. Today a

19、语。不定式或动名词的否定式均须在其前加not或never,可先排除A、C两项；动词apologize后要接for短语，常用apologize to sb. for doing/having done sth.，不接动词不定式，故答案为B。2.C 在英语交际中，拒绝邀请，习惯用“Im sorry but.” “Id like to, but.”“If you dont mind, Id rather.” “No, thanks.”，显然答案是C。选项D比较符合中国人的习惯，具有很强的干扰性。做以上类型的题可以毫不犹豫,一步到位,不必浪费无谓的时间。3.B 分析此题知，but和usually是关键
20、词，由usually可排除C、D两项,由but可排除A项,只有B项符合题意。4.B 分析本题，空格前有逗号，又无连词，所以此句为非限制性定语从句，故答案选B。5.D 在做这道题时，不少考生误用了“表示前面的话里或上文提到过的人或事物要用定冠词”这一语法规则，将A项作为正确答案。其实，这里的black one并非特指上文提到的pen。答话人表达的是“是一支黑色的钢笔吗？”这一意思，故正确答案是D。6.A so，such都表示“如此（的），这样（的）”。一般情况下，such修饰名词，so修饰形容词和副词。当名词前有many, much, few, little等数量词修饰时用so不用such。此句
21、关键词little表示“小”，所以答案应选A。7.B 此题误选C项的考生占一定比例，主要原因是受中文的影响，即“我不同意你说的人人平等”。分析关键词disagree是不及物动词，表示在某一点上“不同意”，正确答案应该是B，表示“你说人人平等，在这一点上我不敢苟同”。8.D 将此句变为陈述句：“This museum is they visited last month.”很明显此句缺少表语，故答案应选D。9.D 在本题中，撇开冗余信息，可清楚看到主干为we should do more such exercises as those,故答案应选D。10.C “出席会议”习惯用“be prese
22、nt at a meeting”表示；在“名词+as well as+名词”结构作主语时，要求谓语动词与第一个名词保持一致，故答案为C。11.D 根据“一致”原则，A、D两项都正确，但考虑到后面的辅助信息，只有D选项符合对话的语意。12.A far from远非；完全不；along with与一起；next to几乎，差不多；紧临着；regardless of不管，不顾。句意：这次艺术展绝不是一次失败，而是一次巨大的成功。句中a failure与a success为抽象名词具体化，分别表示“失败的人/事”和“成功的人/事”。13.C 句意：“你想出新的主意了吗？”“是的，我过会儿告诉你。”co
23、me about“发生”；come into“进入，得到”；come up with“想出”；come out with“说出，提出”。14.B 由since last month可知应该用现在完成时，首先排除A、D。再根据句意可知应该选B。rise是不及物动词，意为“上升”，符合题意。arise意为“起立，出现”，不符合语境。15.D 句意：昨天她在百货商店购物时偶遇了一位老朋友。turn down调低，拒绝；deal with处理，对付；take after与相像；come across偶然碰到。根据句意可确定选D项。.1. The City of Paris 2. Headquarters.3. Paris is named after a group of people called the Parisii.4. many other famous places5.巴黎被称为“不夜城”。它也是国际时装中心。巴黎的时尚女性所穿的服装很快就会在世界上其他地方的很多女士身上见到。
