2、ve it是一个不定式短语作主语, 故看作单数, 谓语动词用单数形式。再根据“何时何地举行讲座”与“决定”间为逻辑上的被动关系, 故此空应用被动语态。2. How do you find out it is my birthday today? _. A. Its your callB. A little bird told meC. Its a dealD. Great minds think alike【解析】选B。考查情景交际。A little bird told me意为“是小鸟告诉我的/消息灵通人士告诉我的”, 是用开玩笑的口吻避免透露消息来源的委婉表达法。Its your call
3、. 决定权在你。Its a deal. 说定了/成交。Great minds think alike. 英雄所见略同。3. Such a situation, if not improved, will certainly_beginners losing interest in English study.

5、h my friend online all afternoon, so I have to finish my assignment. A. have been chattingB. chattedC. was chattingD. had chatted【解析】选C。考查动词时态。根据语境, 现在是晚上睡觉时间了, 而“我却要完成作业”, 所以“我整个下午一直和朋友在网上聊天”发生在过去(下午), 故此空用过去进行时, 强调整个下午都在网上聊天。6.

6、important as that, you know. A. At the mercy ofB. For the sake ofC. In terms ofD. On top of【解析】选B。考查介词短语。此处for the sake of health意思是“为了健康”。7.

A. knownB. knowingC. to knowD. being known【解析】选A。考查非谓语动词。“方法”与“知道”间为逻辑上的被动关系, 故用过去分词作后置定语。every approach known= every appr
10、oach that was known。12. It rained hard all day and all night, _many taxis and cars went wrong because of the water. A. whichB. during whichC. during itD. where【解析】选B。考查定语从句。空前有逗号, 说明后一句是非限制性定语从句。由上句all day and all night可知此题是用“during+关系代词”引导的定语从句。13. Many exhibits staged in our museum are still_onlin

13、assingB. confidentC. desperateD. secure【解析】选C。考查形容词的用法。句意: 没有什么能比一个微笑更迷人, 微笑让人在绝望的情况下可以产生希望。embarrassing使人尴尬的; confident自信的, 确信的; desperate令人绝望的; secure安全的。根据题干关键词hope和even判断。故选C。16. The Greens_on time, but their car had a flat tyre on the halfway. A. would arriveB. could arriveC. must have arrivedD
14、. would have arrived【解析】选D。考查情态动词与虚拟语气。句意: 格林一家原本可以按时到的, 但是, 他们的车在半路爆胎了。根据句意可知, 主句表示对过去的虚拟, 用情态动词could/would/should+have done, 故选D。【规律技法】情态动词无论是表达“推测和可能性”, 还是表达“虚拟”这一概念, 只要是对过去已经发生的或该发生而没发生的事情进行描述, 一律用“情态动词+have done”这一结构。17.
