25、revent意为“阻止”,不合句意;bother to do“为做某事费神”。句意:国内有这么多的好大学,为什么费神到国外学习呢?3B考查固定句型。happen和occur都是不及物动词,不能直接接宾语;think的主语应该是人。该题选B,构成“It strikes/struck sb that(it occurs/occurred to sb that)”句型,意为“某人突然想到”。4B考查形容词辨析。句意:你喜欢她做的事情吗?不喜欢,我认为她做的事情肯定会引起争论。根据语境可知,B项最符合句意。5C考查动词短语辨析。句意:珍妮照常努力学习而且也有了回报,她又一次在期末考试中获得第一名。根据
26、句意选择C项,pay off意为“回报”。show off炫耀;pay back偿还;turn up出现。6C考查副词辨析。句意:我们处境很艰难,但是总体来说我们相当高兴。根据本句中的转折连词but可知应用fairly,表示“相当,颇”。A项表示“很少”;B项表示“仅仅”;D项表示“主要地”,都不符合句意。7B考查动词辨析。complain 意为“抱怨”;oppose 意为“反对”,其后直接跟名词或动名词,不接不定式; resist 意为“抗拒,反抗”,后不接 to;object to 意为“反对”,其中to 是介词,后跟名词或动名词作宾语。8C考查介词短语辨析。句意:当被问及他们对校长的看法
27、时,许多老师更想他能让位给年轻人。in favor of“赞成;支持”;in terms of“就而论;在方面”;in need of“需要”;in praise of“赞扬”。根据step aside可判断是想让校长让位,即“支持”年轻人,所以选C项。9B考查非谓语动词与句子结构。句意:我们经常碰到一些甚至连以母语为英语的人都认为让人困惑的词组。形容词confusing作宾语补足语,说明some groups of words的性质。10B考查动词用法。forbid sb.to do sth.意为“禁止某人做某事”,为固定短语,此处为其被动结构。11D考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,“ow
28、n”与“This restaurant”构成逻辑上的动宾关系,且“_ by an old couple”作“This restaurant”的后置定语,故用own的过去分词形式,选D。12C考查介词短语辨析。owing to 意思是“由于”。句意:正是由于詹妮的及时帮助,我们才按时完成了任务。in addition to 此外;according to根据;in relation to关于,涉及。13B考查介词短语的用法。condition表示“条件”时是可数名词,表示“状况”时是不可数名词。根据主语bicycle和repaired可知,此处的condition表示“状况”,所以不能用冠词a。
29、14B考查同位语从句。句意:是否创立一个不同的社会福利体系这个问题将会出现。这是一个分隔式的同位语从句,根据语意可知用whether来引导此同位语从句,表示“是否”。if一般不引导同位语从句,故排除D项。15A考查倒装结构。here,there,now,then等副词位于句首,主语为名词,谓语动词是be,come,go等词,且为一般时态时,句子常用全部倒装结构。.A本文讲述了现代企业招聘面试中的能力倾向测试并为求职者提供了回答此类问题的技巧。16A写作目的题。通读全文可知,本文意在为面试者提供建议。17C细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It is an attempt to discover ho
30、w people solve problems,rather than what they know.”可知答案为C项。18B细节理解题。根据最后一段的最后一句“Remember that in an aptitude test,the correct answer is always the honest answer.”可知,在能力倾向测验中,求职者应该给出一个诚实的答案。19D推理判断题。根据文章第二段的内容可知,西方的求职者们不断发现他们被问到类似这样的奇怪问题,而且有迹象表明这种情况在中国也开始出现。由此可推知D项正确。B本文介绍了2035年的生活。20B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“
31、Tiny preprogrammed electronics are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.”可知,是衬衫自己改变颜色的。21D细节理解题。根据第三段第二句中的“to find out the nutrition details.”可得知答案。22A推理判断题。根据文中的“Getting ready for work”“As you go into the kitchen”“Ready for your trip to space.”“Its time for you to go to work.”可推知这篇文章是按照时间顺序来组织的。.23.includes24.carefully25.in26.given27grammar28.ourselves29.beginning30.possible31which32.benefit版权所有:高考资源网()版权所有:高考资源网()
