27、是even if he is attacked的省略。1.2 Battack意为“袭击；攻击”，与Chinese boats为动宾关系，所以应选动名词的被动式作宾语。2.1 Aadapt意为“适应；改编”；appeal意为“吸引；恳求”；attach意为“从属；附着”；apply意为“申请；适用”。根据句意判断应选A项，表示“很容易适应新环境”。2.2 B该题应选B项表示“把她的小儿子过继给他叔叔”。2.3 Dadopt意为“收养；过继；采纳；采用”；accept意为“接受”；translate意为“翻译”；adapt意为“（使）适应；（使）适合”。根据句意应选D项，表示“小说常常改编为舞台演
28、出剧、电视剧和电台节目”。2.4 Dturn to意为“转向；求助于”；adopt一般不与to搭配；contribute to意为“有助于；促进”；adapt to 意为“适应”。该题应选D项，表示“适应她作为美国国务卿的新角色”。3.1 Bdie out 是“灭绝”的意思。句意：地球上的许多动植物已经消失，而且一些其他种类濒临灭绝。die away意为“（声音，光线等）逐渐减弱”；die off意为“（种族等）相继死亡”；die down短语不存在。3.2 A句中谈论的是现在“now”，表示目前正在发生的情况，故选A项。4.1 C该题考查point的介词搭配，to the point意为“切
29、中要点，恰到好处”。4.2 BThere is no point in doing sth.意为“做某事是没有意义的”，beat around the bush意为“拐弯抹角；兜圈子”，第一个空应选Theres；come to the point意为“开门见山；谈正题”，所以答案为B项。句意为：拐弯抹角没意思，咱们说正事吧。4.3 Cbeside the point意为“不切正题”。句意：重要的是你应该告诉我你要去哪里，但你的话却不切正题。5.1 Cgive rise to意为“引起；造成”；lead to意为“导致；带来”；throw light on意为“帮助弄清楚”；result in意
30、为“导致”。句意：科学家们的发现帮助弄清了那一地区印第安部族的丧葬习俗。5.2 Bthrow light on意为“帮助弄清楚；阐明”；make light of意为“轻视；看不起”；come to light意为“为人所知；被披露”；see the light意为“最终明白”。【特别提醒】throw light on后面可以接宾语；come to light后面不能接宾语。6.1 Daway from意为“远离”；thanks to意为“多亏；由于”；owe to意为“应归功于”；due to意为“由于”。根据句意判断应选D项，表示“部分原因是由于财政困难”。6.2 Abe due to d
31、o sth.意为“预定要做某事”；due to意为“由于；因为”，后接动名词形式作宾语。【特别提醒】due to 作“由于”讲时，to为介词；作“到期；预定；预期”讲时，后接不定式。6.3 B根据句意判断，第一个空应排除强调程度的by far和表示“首要的是”的above all；第二个空应选due to表示原因，虽然thanks to也表示原因，但含有“多亏”的意义，不合句意。6.4 Dregardless of意为“不管；不顾”；apart from意为“除了”；instead of意为“代替；而不是”；due to意为“由于”。根据句意判断应选D项，表示“由于在大城市找工作竞争激烈”。7.1 A第一个空应用不定冠词表示“一本有用的参考书”，并且useful是以辅音音素开头，所以选不定冠词a；第二个空应用不定冠词表示 “值得再读一遍”。7.2 Don second thoughts意为“转念一想”；第二个空意为“再试一次”。【特别提醒】选择序数词前面的冠词时，一定要看是否强调顺序。强调顺序时用定冠词，不强调顺序时用不定冠词。高考资源网版权所有！投稿可联系QQ：1084591801
