23、 bought 10 sets of Christmas china that were marked at 75 percent off plus an additional 10 percent. It was an amazing deal. When I got them home, I found they took half a closet to store. I already have nice china I can use at Christmas. I decided it wasnt worthwhile to me to use that much space fo
24、r something that I would only use a couple of times in the year. I took them back and now I have more money in my checking account as well as some luxury towels I have wanted for a long time.

27、 the next few months the price kept dropping until it went down to $2.95. When I saw that price, I bought 25 of them right away.

31、her family would like.参考答案课时作业(八).1.C考查冠词。世贸大厦是由普通名词构成的专有名词，其前应使用定冠词the。shock在这里意为“令人震惊的事”，为可数名词。2B句意：1919年在北京爆发了反对帝国主义和封建主义的“五四”运动。break down表示“出故障”；break into表示“闯入”；break up表示“破裂”；只有break out表示“爆发”。3B 考查形式宾语。动词appreciate, find, consider等词后接it作形式宾语，而把真正的宾语置于句末。句意：如果你愿意教我如何用电脑，我将非常感激。4A 考查非谓语动词。逗号前是
32、一个完整的句子，故此可以判断happy是形容词短语作状语，相当于she was happy to watch，to watch为动词不定式作形容词happy的补语。5A6A考查动词短语辨析。break down表示“出故障”。break out 表示“突然发生，爆发”；break up表示“崩溃，分离，解散，结束”；break in表示“闯入”。7Bas well as表示“也，还”。8D考查非限制性定语从句。由had already had 可推断出介词使用by，非限制性定语从句中用which。9A考查动词短语辨析。stand for表示“代表”； stand by表示“坚持(某种)说法”；
33、base sth.on sth.表示“以某事为依据”；rely on表示“依靠”。依题意可知答案。10B A 表示“英雄所见略同”；B表示“三个臭皮匠赛过一个诸葛亮”；C表示“一鸟在手胜于二鸟在林”；D表示“三思而后行”。依题意可知答案。. 作者和朋友三年前去墨西哥旅游，在海豚训练员的指导下，他和朋友在水里与海豚进行了一次亲密接触。11B根据后面的宾语判断，作者和朋友是“参加”了这次旅程，所以选B。12D先行词是表示地点的名词，但关系词在从句中作主语，所以用which。13A由于作者要和海豚一起游泳，所以对将要发生的一切感到非常兴奋。由于还没有发生，所以不能用“满意的”。14C根据下文的“每小
34、组56人”判断，此处是把游客“分成”了小组。15A根据后面的trainer (训练员)看，在水池边训练员给他们讲解了注意事项，所以用lecture。16B根据下文的had been trained判断，此处指“训练”海豚的人。17C上文谈到“海豚受到过良好的训练”，下文是其结果，所以用therefore，意为“因此”。18Dunder the rule of在的统治下；under the control of在的控制下。根据句意可以看出在训练员的控制下，海豚可以和我们做一些运动。19B由本段最后一句touch them 可知要选touch(接触；抚摸)。一开始要“抚摸”海豚。其余三个词都有“打
35、”的意思。20C要抚摸海豚自然是一个接一个地，所以用in turn(依次；轮流)。21Dwait for sb. to do等着某人做。作者和朋友站在那里等着海豚过来。22Amake sb. do使某人做某事，有强迫的意思；force和cause不能接不带to的不定式。let sb. do sth.让某人做某事。23A从进展的顺序看，先“抚摸”海豚，接下来要让海豚亲吻，所以此处为“下一步”。24B海豚在水池里，要想让海豚亲吻自己的脸，必须要低下头。lower降低；低下。25C上文提到训练员吹口哨给海豚下指令，所以此处为whistle。26D海豚亲吻的自然是作者的“脸”，也就是cheek(面颊)
36、。27B从语意看，此处应为“旅行”结束时。由首段第二句There we _ the tour可知。28D根据下文的“用尾巴打我们”可知海豚生气了，in a bad mood情绪不好。29A训练员命令游客把胳膊抱在胸前，in front of在前面。30C由于作者在水里，所以只好听从训练员的话，所以用obey(遵守)。.A面对目前严峻的就业形势，应届大学毕业生们纷纷做起了“创业梦”，但近日的一项调查表明，大学生们的“创业梦”因得不到应有的资金和其他方面的支持，还仅仅是个“梦”而已。 31B主旨大意题。文章开始告诉我们这次调查的结果：面对目前严峻的就业形势，应届大学毕业生们纷纷做起了“创业梦”。但
37、近日的一项调查表明，大学生们的“创业梦”因得不到应有的支持，还仅仅是个“梦”而已。后面介绍的是这次调查研究的具体信息。故B最恰当。32C推理判断题。由第三段对阻碍大学生创业的主要原因的分析，可知C项与文章内容不符。33C细节理解题。小郭在倒数第二段指出：严峻的就业形势是越来越多的大学生一毕业就走上创业之路的主要原因。这里严峻的就业形势就是指There are not enough graduate jobs。34B写作意图题。本文主要是针对即将毕业的大学生的就业问题所展开的一项调查，所以其对象应该是刚毕业或即将毕业的大学生。B也许是天性，女人都喜欢购物，但购物也是有学问的，本文作者以亲身经历介
38、绍了怎样在节约时间又节约金钱的情况下购得有价值的东西。35D细节理解题。根据第一段第三句至第六句“I found they took half a closet to storeuse that much space I took them back”可知她把东西送回去主要是因为它们太占地方了。36B词义猜测题。根据第一段“save time and money by passing up bargains”可知passing up在这里意思是“放弃，放过”，即放弃讨价还价可以节约时间当然也节约金钱了。37A写作意图题。本文作者主要讨论了如何在既节约时间又节约金钱的情况下购得心仪的商品，因此选择A“怎样避免不明智的购物”最符合文章大意。38B细节理解题。根据第二段作者购物的具体描述可见她购物是比较明智的，即不买贵的而买对的(物超所值的)。版权所有：高考资源网()版权所有：高考资源网()
