36、raduates.参考答案课时作业(三十九).1.A考查动词辨析。compromise 折中，互让，妥协。句意：我们需要与他们就房子的价格做一下折中。2D考查动词短语辨析。show off 炫耀。show up 出席；show out 领某人出去；show in 领某人进去。3B考查动词用法。hesitate需要接不定式作宾语。4A考查动词辨析。condemn尤其指对不道义的事情进行“谴责”；scold指“训斥”；criticize指对某人的过失“批评，指责或评论”；blame指对犯错误和做不好事情的人进行指责，让其负责。恐怖袭击应该受到“谴责”，故选A。5D考查动词辨析。overlook指因
37、匆忙而疏忽或视而不见，或没注意到。房子被树环绕，因此根本看不到。6B考查非谓语动词的用法。下句是省略回答，补充完整为：Being left alone to face a troublesome milk case has made him so upset recently.所以下句的省略回答仅是what所指内容，充当主语，所以用动名词作主语(注意被动关系)。7B考查非谓语动词。分析题干可知，exhibit和句子主语The Thinker之间是动宾关系，因此用过去分词。when exhibited是when it was exhibited的省略句。A项表示主动含义；C项作谓语动词，而此处不
38、能用谓语动词；D项表示正在发生的动作，不合题意。8A考查名词辨析。句意：这位百万富翁去世了，留给他的孩子们一大笔财产。a large fortune庞大的财富。money不能和a large 搭配。9A考查动词词义辨析。句意：政府对城区的空气质量按1到5的等级进行分类：优；良；轻微污染；差；危险。classify“分类”；arrange“安排”；distribute“分配”；divide“划分；分开”。A项符合题意。10C考查介词短语辨析。in terms of依据；按照。句意：一个政府的成功，既需要根据经济的发展也需要以人们的幸福来衡量。11D考查状语从句。句意：一辆小汽车对三口之家来说足够
39、了，除非你需要更多的空间存放行李。once引导条件状语从句，意为“一旦”；in case意为“万一；以防”；if意为“如果”；unless意为“除非”。故D项符合题意。12C考查动词短语。pass sb./oneself off as“(某人/自己)冒充，假扮”。答句句意：因为他冒充主席，并且造成了巨大的损失。pass away“死亡”；pass down“传下去”；pass on“传递”。13C考查交际用语。答句句意：振作起来！还会有很多其他的机会的。cheer up“振作起来”，符合语意。well done “做得很好”；what a pity“真遗憾”；all right“好的”。14C
40、考查非谓语。句意：小鸟被关在笼子里半天了，饿极了。由句意可知for half a day作时间状语，并且和后面的动作became具有明显的先后顺序，故用分词完成式来作状语。15C考查固定短语be on good terms with意为“与关系好”。句意：我同玛莉的关系很好，她是我的好朋友。.A本文通过向大家介绍近期英国的几项发明来鼓励大家积极思考，发明新事物。16D主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，作者意在通过介绍英国最近的几项发明来鼓励人们创新思维并进行发明创造，故D项作为本文的标题最合适。17D细节理解题。根据“Adaptive glasses”介绍中的最后一句“The glasses ar
41、e not beautiful”可知，这种眼镜并不美观。18B细节理解题。根据“The windup radio”介绍中的最后一句“In 1996 it won the BBC Design Award for Best Product and Best Design.”可知答案为B项。19A推理判断题。根据“The Dyson vacuum (真空) cleaner”介绍中的“The idea came to Sir James Dyson after he kept having problems with his vacuum cleaner.”可推知，发明者Dyson之所以有这样的创意
42、是由于以前他自己在使用真空吸尘器时感到很不方便，故答案为A项。B本文主要讲述了Nottingham将出台政策对在工作场所停车收费及由此引发的激烈讨论。20D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The scheme aims to reduce traffic by preventing unnecessary car journeys and raise funds to improve public transport”可知，支持者认为这个方案能够缓解交通压力，改善公共交通。21A细节理解题。根据第四段的第三句可知A项正确。22B态度推断题。根据第六段内容可知，Theresa Villiers对这个
43、方案持否定态度。23B推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的“The council says the tax will raise as much as 100 million over ten yearsone fifth of the cost of a new transport system for the city.”以及最后一段内容可推知，Nottingham的公共交通急需改善。.24.of25.However26.willing27.being28.goes29active30.earn31.his32.wealth33.measures 课后阅读A day to remember 难
44、忘的一天We have all experienced days when everything goes wrong. A day may begin well enough, but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. What invariably happens is that a great number of things choose to go wrong at precisely the same moment. It is as if a single unimportant event set up a cha

The telephone rings and this marks the prelude to an unforeseen series of catastrophes. While you are on the phone, the baby pulls the table-cloth off the table, smashing half your best cro

47、 people recently discovered in Parramatta, a suburb of Sydney. During the rush hour one evening two cars collided and both drivers began to argue. The woman immediately behind the two cars happened to be a learner. She suddenly got into a panic and stopped her car. This made the driver following her
48、 brake hard. His wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake. As she was thrown forward, the cake went right through the windscreen and landed on the road. Seeing a cake flying through the air, a lorrydriver who was drawing up alongside the car, pulled up all of a sudden. The lorry was loaded w
49、ith empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the vehicle and on to the road. This led to yet another angry argument. Meanwhile, the traffic piled up behind. It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again. In the meantime, the lorry driver had to sweep up h
50、undreds of broken bottles. Only two stray dogs benefited from all this confusion, for they greedily devoured what was left of the cake. It was just one of those days!我们大家都有过事事不顺心的日子。一天开始时，可能还不错，但突然间似乎一切都失去了控制。情况经常是这样的，许许多多的事情都偏偏赶在同一时刻出问题，好像是一件无关紧要的小事引起了一连串的连锁反应。假设你在做饭，同时又在照看孩子。这时电话铃响了，它预示着一连串意想不到的灾难
51、的来临。就在你接电话时，孩子把桌布从桌子上扯了下来，将家中最好的陶瓷餐具半数摔碎，同时也弄伤了他自己。你急急忙忙挂上电话，赶去照看孩子和餐具。这时，饭又烧糊了。好像这一切还不足以使你急得掉泪，你的丈夫接着回来了，事先没打招呼就带来3个客人吃饭。就像许多人最近在悉尼郊区帕拉马塔所发现的那样，有时乱子会闹得很大。一天傍晚交通最拥挤时，一辆汽车撞上前面一辆汽车，两个司机争吵起来。紧跟其后的一辆车上的司机碰巧是个初学者，她一惊之下突然把车停了下来。她这一停使得跟在后头的司机也来了个急刹车。司机的妻子正坐在他身边，手里托着块大蛋糕。她往前一冲，蛋糕从挡风玻璃飞了出去掉在马路上。此时，一辆卡车正好从后边开到那辆汽车边上，司机看见一块蛋糕从天而降，紧急刹车。卡车上装着空啤酒瓶，成百只瓶子顺势从卡车后面滑出车外落在马路上。这又引起了一场唇枪舌剑的争吵。与此同时，后面的车辆排成了长龙，警察花了将近一个小时才使车辆又开起来。在这段时间里，卡车司机不得不清扫那几百只破瓶子。只有两只野狗从这一片混乱中得到了好处，它们贪婪地吃掉了剩下的蛋糕。这就是事事不顺心的那么一天！ 9
