30、你打算怎么办”及“我从未想到”可知“发生”为过去将来时。3C考查非谓语动词。此处非谓语动词作方式状语，逻辑主语是the match，schedule与逻辑主语the match之间是被动关系，且其动作已经完成，故用过去分词，选C。4A考查动词搭配。B项(spend)和D项(provide)不符合动词用法，因此可以先排除。spend (time/money) on sth/(in) doing sth，provide sb with sth/provide sth for sb。C项(offer主动提供)意思不符。devote (time/effort/ones life, etc. ) to
31、sth/sb或者devote oneself to sth/sb，意为“把奉献给，把专用于”。句意：这位母亲虽然工作很忙，但还是把很多时间花在子女身上。5 B考查短语辨析。far from意为“远未，绝非，决不”，其后可接名词、动名词和形容词等。next to在旁边，仅次于； out of在之外； due to由于，因为。6A考查定语从句。分析句子结构可以知道，两空均为定语从句结构，第一个定语从句中缺少谓语动词see的宾语，故第一空应用关系代词 that，which 或省略不填；第二个的定语从句中缺表语，故只能用that 连接，不可用which，且不可省略，the one that相当于wha
32、t。7C考查动词短语辨析。take up开始学，从事； get on 上车，相处，进展； pick up拾起，学会，收听到，搭车；turn on打开。根据句子意思，应选择pick up，表示“搭乘(出租车)”。8Ckeep it up再接再厉；in time 相当于sooner or later，意思是：迟早，早晚。句意：再接再厉，你迟早能成功。9C考查非谓语动词。remain 在there be 结构中用作后置定语。由于remain是不及物动词，故应用现在分词remaining，相当于定语从句that remains；因为问题是被“解决”的，故应用不定式的被动结构来表示。10C根据上下文语境
33、及讲话人语气可知，选项动作表示经过努力才完成。在这种语气的肯定句和疑问句中，常用“be able to”表示，在否定句中也可用“can”。11Cout of ones reach意为“够不着，拿不到”。句意：总是要记得将小刀这类危险的东西放到小孩拿不到的地方。故选C。12A句意：你叔叔看起来是个驾车好手。即使如此，我还是不敢乘坐他的车去旅行。even so 是副词短语，使用时后面有逗号和句子分开。even though是连词，表示“即使，尽管”，连接两个句子，且后面不需要有逗号。13D考查连词用法。此处whenconsidering that，“既然”，又如：Why do you want a
34、 new job when youve got such a good one already?14Dprefer to do rather than do 宁愿而不愿 15.B考查交际用语。从句意“我看我明天不能去爬山了。”“为什么呢？”可知此处用How come？表示“为什么”。And how？表示“的确，当然”；Hows it going？表示“情况如何”；How about it？表示“怎么样”。.A美国总统奥巴马在就职典礼上打的领带的颜色成为人们议论的焦点，因为其领带的颜色代表了他执政的风格。本文探讨政治家们喜好的领带的颜色与其政治风格的关系，以及人们在不同场合应该选择什么样的领带。
35、16A细节理解题。第一段说，这是因为人们认为，奥巴马对就职典礼上系的领带颜色的选择将表明他的政府是什么类型，将实行什么样的政策。17B推理判断题。从第二段可知，美国共和党成员近年常打红色领带，民主党成员打蓝色领带，可是尽管如此，布什却经常打蓝色领带。由此判断，他是美国共和党的成员。18A推理判断题。第三段说，希望被人视为强者和决策者的人喜欢打红色领带，商业巨头Donald Trump喜欢打红色领带。作者提到这个例子是为了证明前面提到的观点，即颜色表达情感及人的性格，因此选A。19C推理判断题。全文介绍了领带的颜色与政治家们的主张与行为之间的联系，可见领带对政治家们的重要性，因此A项错误；最后部
36、分谈到求职面试和男女约会时如何选领带及工作面试是最重要的场合，因此B项错误，此时应该选用严肃的颜色，因此D项错误；从Perfect job interview tie中的叙述可知C项正确。B本文作者以音乐为例详细阐述了艺术教育在人类教育中的重要作用。20A细节理解题。根据第一段中的Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment可知学生经常把音乐看作一种娱乐形式。21B细节理解题。根据第二段的The jazzIt gives us identity as a society.可判断B项正确。22A推理判断题。根据第三段得知科学与艺术分别从事实与感情不同的两个方面来分析同一现象去认知世界，因为没有一种方法可以获知全部信息。故A项正确，B、C项错误；根据倒数第二段第一句话判断D项错误。23A主旨大意题。纵观全文，艺术对人类如此重要，却仅被看作娱乐的一种方式，是不应该的。因此提出号召艺术应该受到更多的关注，故A项正确。
