29、is the first of the roller coasters built by a womanCKing Island is a branch of the company named Cedar FairDthe roller coaster in Orlando is located in the city of London答 案.1.选C第一空填a，a moral sense表示“一种道德意识”；第二空表示特指，用定冠词the。tell the difference between A and B“辨别A与B的不同”。2选Bforget doing sth.表示“忘了曾做过某
30、事”，很明显“提醒”已发生，故用动名词形式，而且remind和I 之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用动名词的被动语态。3选D句意：要不是观众们鼓励性的欢呼，我们队不可能赢得这么重要的比赛。根据该句中的“But for”可知，此处应用虚拟语气，表示与过去事实相反，再结合句意可知，应用couldnt have won。4选Cif only表示“要是就好了”，谓语动词应使用虚拟语气。根据“right now”可知，此处表示对现在的虚拟，因此谓语动词用过去式。5选B句意：媒体能常常帮助解决问题并且把注意力吸引到需要帮助的地方。draw attention to“吸引某人的注意力到”；situation, c
31、ase等作先行词时后边常用where引导定语从句。pay attention to“关注，注意”，与句意不符。6选A句意：这位经理公平地对待他那些在背景和性格方面有很大差异的职员们。此句叙述的是一种客观事实，不需要用现在完成时，故排除C、D两项。staff在此强调每个成员，故who引导的定语从句的谓语用复数形式。7选B句意：“法官对结果满意吗？”“我认为不会满意。但也许满足法官不容易。”be satisfied with“对满意”；第二个空考查“sth.beadj.to do”句式，不定式要用主动形式表示被动含义。8选A句意：面带微笑，他继续说道：“涉及几个热点的主席的报告讨论了怎样提高农民的
32、收入。”加引号的部分中谓语动词是discusses，故“_to several hot topics”作The presidents report的定语，refer to 与 report之间存在逻辑上的主动关系，所以应该用现在分词形式。9选D考查句型It is worthwhile to do/doing .“做是值得的”。10选Black sth./lack for sth./be lacking in，表示“缺少”，故选B。11选Aby all means“可以，当然行”；by no means“绝不”；my pleasure“不客气，很乐意效劳”；its a pleasure“不客气”
33、。根据答语中的“if only she gave me a sincere apology”可知，A项符合语境，即只要她真诚地向我道歉，我当然可以原谅她。12选C句意：无论你是什么背景，你可以通过你的努力工作，像许多其他人一样成功。equally“同样地”，符合语境。13选D句意：美国前总统乔治布什自从离开白宫就开始从事油画创作，他透露绘画促成了他的休闲生活方式。这里用contribute to表示“促成，贡献，有助于”。14选B句意：嫦娥三号的软着陆证明，只要有投入和决心，所有的障碍都能被克服。requirement“要求”；commitment“投入，奉献”；extension“延期，延伸
34、”；distinction“区别，差别”。15选C句意：为了精通法语，他放弃了工作，去一所法语学校学习。require“需要；要求”；inquire“询问；打听”；address“邮寄”；acquire a good knowledge of“精通；学好”。.语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。主要讲述的是Doniece用废旧的公共汽车为旧金山的无家可归者建造淋浴站的爱心感人故事。1选C细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知，无家可归者洗澡的机会少或者没有机会洗澡，所以洗澡对他们来说很困难。故选C。2选D指代判断题。由第二段第一句“. the homeless face is .”可知，them应指的是无家
35、可归者。3选B推理判断题。通读文章内容可知，Doniece为无家可归者建造淋浴站，关心帮助穷人，所以她是一个有爱心和责任感的人。4选C细节理解题。由倒数第二段Dufty所说的话“Doniece has done an incredible job as a citizen who cares about helping the poor.”可知，Dufty对Doniece为穷人所做的一切给予了高度评价。5选B标题概括题。本文主要报道的是Doniece用废旧的公共汽车为旧金山的无家可归者建造淋浴站的故事。语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国五家准备在2014年夏季全新开业的热门过山车景点。6选B正误判断题。根据文章第二个景点介绍中的第二句可知，Goliath 的最高点是 180 英尺，这是有纪录以来的最高的过山车，所以B项错误。故选B项。7选A推理判断题。根据文章第三个景点介绍的最后一句可推知，这个刺激的项目最有可能吸引那些喜欢冒险的人们。故选A项。8选C推理判断题。根据文章第三个景点介绍的第二句可推知，Kings Island 是 Cedar Fair 的一个子公司。故选C项。
