30、均不符合句意。3答案：A句意：我的成绩有了提高，但是我还不是十分满意(satisfied)。句中的“but”是重要信息词。4答案：Ctalk.into“说服某人做某事”；put.into“将注入；投入”；turn.into“使成为”；throw.into“把扔进”。由语境可知，答案选C。5答案：Ctough“坚韧的”；detailed“详细的”；rough“粗略的”；general“一般的”；草稿应该是粗略的，故答案选C。6答案：Asb. spend some time(in)doing sth.意为“某人花时间做某事”。其他选项均无此结构。7答案：A此处意为“而且考德威尔先生还鼓励我当一名老
31、师”。encourage“鼓励”；force“强迫”；prevent“阻止”；beg“恳求”。故答案选A。8答案：B从下文内容看，此处表示“我最难忘的经历(experience)”。experiment“试验”；example“例子”；moment“时刻”；均不符合句意。9答案：A从上句“He was unable to add, minus, multiply, or divide”可知“达尼尔远远落后于他的同学”。选项中只有behind符合句意。10答案：D既然“He was far behind his classmates”，因此“他需要个别关注(attention)”。11答案：A依
32、据句意，这里表示“当我开始上课时”，答案选A。while引导的从句中，谓语动词应是持续性动词或状态动词。12答案：A考查形容词辨析。由“Darnell was very quiet”以及“I was becoming frustrated”可知，“他对学习不感兴趣(uninterested)”。involved“有关联的”；concerned“关切的”；interested“感兴趣的”，均不符合句意。13答案：Dachieve a goal意为“达到目标”。14答案：Bopen up to sb.“对畅所欲言”；look up to sb.“尊敬某人”；walk up to sb.“走近某人”
33、；come up to“达到”。由语境可知，答案选B。15答案：C“.became absorbed in his work.

34、不符合句意。19答案：A依据句意可知，选instantly“立刻；马上”；punctually“准时地”；slowly“慢慢地”；gradually“渐渐地”；均不符合句意。20答案：D此处表示“方式；方法”，故应选D项，其他选项均无此意。III 1答案：C从文章第一段第一句“For any Englishman，there can never be any discussion as to who is the worlds greatest poet and greatest dramatist.”可知C项表达的含义与本句相同，即英国人都知道莎翁是最伟大的诗人与剧作家。而A，B，D都是字面
35、意思，并非本意。2答案：A此题主要考查对文中第一段第三句中“Every Englishman has some knowledge”的理解。A是此短语的正确理解，B，D是歧义，C则偏题。3答案：CA、D太绝对化，而B与文中第二段括号内的内容“it is not，of course，recommended to beginners”相矛盾。4答案：AB、C选项是普通常识错误。D项则是此题的干扰项，稍作分析即可辨识。A项的内容在第一段有述。5答案：B由文中第二段第四句“There is probably no better waywhich Shakespeare used it.”可知B项符合题意。6答案：A全文介绍了一个人物前总统吉姆卡特。他最近出了一本诗集。7答案：B由构词法可知，trout是鱼的一种。8答案：A最后一句是吉姆卡特对写诗的心得，意思是“诗歌能使人视野开阔。”9答案：C从文中找不到homesick这个词；politician为“政治家”。10答案：DA、B、C三项都在文中交代了。 高考资源网%
