25、jured意为“伤者”,在句中作主语,谓语动词用复数。2B考查非谓语动词和虚拟语气。该句可以是“the headmaster insisted that the problems which had been referred to should be paid special attention to.”。由此可以看出,referred to为过去分词作后置定语;insist后的宾语从句用“should动词原形”,should被省略。句意:在例行办公会议上,校长坚持提及的问题应给予特别的关注。3A考查副词的用法。be well worth doing“很值得做”。由句意“他的第一本书对我们的
26、课程很有用,但他最新出的这一本更值得一读”可知应选A项。4C考查动词的时态。由句意“他打算今天去北京,但当他听说中午会有大雨后,他就推迟了出行”可知,intend所表示的动作发生在postpone之前,故应选C项,即用过去完成时态。5D考查动词短语辨析。句意:昨天在百货商店购物时,她遇上了她的一位老朋友。turn down拒绝;deal with对付,处理;take after 长得像,性格类似于,效仿;come across穿过,越过,偶然遇见。6D考查固定结构。第一个空考查spend time (in) doing sth“花费时间做某事”;第二个空考查would rather dotha
27、n do结构,意为“宁愿做也不做”。句意:他们宁愿把时间花在读书上也不在街上闲逛。7D考查名词辨析。condition 状况,条件。in good condition 状况良好。句意:尽管这辆二手车似乎状况良好,但它跑不快。state 状态; situation 处境,形势; occasion 时刻,场合。8B考查动词短语辨析。carry out a plan执行计划,符合题意。set aside 挤出,匀出;take in 欺骗,吸收,理解;get through 完成。9D考查非谓语动词。the last Thursday of November 与observe 之间是动宾关系,且所表示
28、动作是将来时,所以用不定式的被动语态作宾补。句意:在1863年,林肯总统签署了一个宣言,主张把每年十一月的最后一个星期四定为感恩节。故选D。10B考查非谓语动词。observe sb do sth 变为被动语态时不定式的符号to不省略,即sb be observed to do sth。11D考查过去分词作宾补。结构是get these goods delivered, ordered作后置定语。12B句意:是农民为我们提供粮食,但有些城里人却“瞧不起(look down upon)”他们。look forward to期盼;look back upon回顾;look up to尊敬,均不符合
29、句意。13B考查动词的时态和倒装句的用法。only引导状语位于句首时,需要使用倒装结构,而该状语only then表明了动作发生在过去,故选B项。14A考查固定句型。It hits/hit sb that意为“某人突然想到”。15C由转折连词but可知前面是对他工作努力的事实表示肯定。.一个非常富有的父亲和他挚爱的儿子都喜欢收藏艺术珍宝。然而,年轻人在保家卫国的战争中,为了救一名战士不幸牺牲。在圣诞节早上,孤独伤心的父亲被一阵敲门声惊醒,他收到了最宝贵的“艺术珍藏品”被救的战士送来的他儿子的画像。16C他们一起环游世界,只寻找最精美的(finest)艺术珍宝来收藏。17D根据下文可知,年轻人参
30、战以保家卫国。故此处指战争吞没了整个国家。18Cserve the country “为国家服务”,即保卫祖国。19A在仅几个星期以后,父亲接到一份电报,他深爱的儿子失踪了。根据下句中的“_ he would never see his son again”可知此处missing“失踪”正确。20B艺术收藏家焦急地(anxiously)等待更多的消息。A意为“平静地”;C意为“安静地”;D意为“秘密地”。21A害怕再也见不到他的儿子。故fear“害怕,畏惧”正确。根据下句中的“Within days,his fears”也可知答案。22D几天后,他的恐惧被证实(confirmed)了。年轻人在
31、送战友去看病时身亡。23C这位老人在不安和孤独中伤心地面对将要到来的圣诞节。根据语境可知lonely“孤独的”正确。A意为“紧张的”;B意为“劳累的”;D意为“害怕的”。24A在圣诞节的早上,敲门声吵醒了伤心的老人。根据上句中的“with sadness”可知此处用sad。25B当他开门时,一个战士向他打招呼,手里拿着一个大包裹。根据第五段的“As the two began to _ ,the soldier told of how”可知答案。26D我是你儿子的一个朋友(friend),就是为了救“我”他才牺牲的。27Arescue拯救,符合语境。28C根据语境可知他们两人此刻在交谈,故ta
32、lk正确。29B战士提到,他的儿子告诉每个人他和父亲对艺术的热爱(love)。30A“我不是艺术家”,战士说,“但是我想给你这个。”根据下文可知那个战士画了一幅老人儿子的画像送给了老人,故artist“艺术家”正确。31B根据转折连词though可知此处表示“尽管世人永远不会认为这是一个天才的作品,但是这幅图画以惊人的细节描绘了年轻人的面部”,故never正确。32Cin detail详细地,是固定用法。33A老人情绪很激动,他很感谢(thanked)战士。34C在战士离开后,老人把儿子的画像放在了壁炉上面,把价值上万的艺术珍藏品推到了一边。push aside把推在一边,符合语境。35B做完
33、这些后,老人坐在椅子上,凝视着他收到的礼物(gift)度过了圣诞节。.科技的发展给人们生活带来了种种便利,但我们又从中失去了什么呢?在作者推荐的这本书中,我们或许能找到些答案。36D推理判断题。通读全文可知,Sherry Turkle担心人们迷失在现代科技世界中,故答案选D项。37A句意理解题。从文中内容可知,虽然互联网把我们联系在一起,但它却隔离着我们,我们都是孤独的个体,故选A。38B细节理解题。从倒数第二段的“In a text message, you can avoid eye contactis becoming unconcerned.”可知,如果孩子经常用短信交流,则他/她会很少关注他人的感受,答案选B项。39A写作意图题。从文章最后一段“This book is not to be missed and worthy of every dollar you spend.”可知,写作本文主要是为了推荐Sherry Turkle写的书,所以A项正确。版权所有:高考资源网()版权所有:高考资源网()
